Xu Mu didn't park his car in the underground garage this time but in a parking space outside the company.
Now, his perception had expanded to two hundred meters. Coupled with his own realm, it was quite easy for him to follow Meng Wanyue.
He sensed that Meng Wanyue had left the company gate and immediately got out of the car to follow her.
Meng Wanyue walked eastward along the street in front of the company and finally entered a park.
Xu Mu also came to the park at this time. Through his perception, he saw Meng Wanyue sitting on a bench under a pavilion.
Apparently, she was waiting for someone.
Xu Mu squinted his eyes slightly, and a bad thought emerged in his mind.
That was that Meng Wanyue had been pretending to him before.
Then he shook his head. He must be overthinking.
The favorable impression Meng Wanyue had for him was real.
He continued to get closer. There was a small grove in front of him, and he could just see Meng Wanyue on the bench through the gaps in the trees.
He didn't plan to inform Meng Wanyue and just stayed there, waiting to see who she was going to meet.
"Hey, handsome guy, what are you looking at?"
Suddenly, a slender hand appeared from behind Xu Mu.
Just as this hand was about to land on Xu Mu's shoulder, Xu Mu instantly sidestepped and flashed out.
His figure appeared five meters away.
"Ouch! Not simple!"
This short - haired beauty in a black overcoat looked at Xu Mu seriously.
Xu Mu also looked at her. She was a short - haired beauty with a 4:6 hair partition.
Her left hair slightly covered her left eye.
She was in her late twenties, over 1.7 meters tall. Her cultivation realm was probably C - level, similar to Ye Tong.
Although she had a hairstyle that covered one eye, Xu Mu didn't get the slightest feeling of a "trendy youth" from her.
Maybe it was because she was beautiful.
At this time, she had her hands in the pockets of her overcoat and was staring at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu immediately used his God's Eye to observe her. The fact that she could approach him silently definitely meant she was not an ordinary person.
Name: Xiao Ran
Occupation: Assassin, the female lead in "The Dragon King Descends"
Favorable impression: - 5
Destiny level: 5 (maximum level is 10)
Seeing this information, Xu Mu was full of surprise. It was actually Xiao Ran.
She was one of the right - hand assistants of the Dragon King and extremely powerful.
The reason why her destiny level was so low was that she died to save the Dragon King in the middle of the plot.
According to the plot of "The Dragon King Descends", after the Dragon King returned at the beginning, he swept through everything on his way, killing gods if they blocked his path and Buddhas if they stood in his way.
Finally, in the middle, he encountered a major setback.
If it weren't for Xiao Ran, the Dragon King would have died.
Seeing this woman, Xu Mu realized that he had wronged Meng Wanyue.
Obviously, it was Xiao Ran who sent the message to her to come here.
"Mr. Xu! Sister Ran!"
Meng Wanyue trotted over from a distance and looked at the two of them.
"Ouch, my little Wanyue has changed. It's only been a few days, and you've become even more beautiful."
Xiao Ran walked over with a smile and put her hand on Meng Wanyue's shoulder.
"Where? It's still Sister Ran who is beautiful."
Meng Wanyue lowered her head and said.
"Who is he?"
Xiao Ran looked at Xu Mu in front of her and asked.
"Oh, this is Xu Mu from the Xu Group. I reported about him before."
Meng Wanyue explained.
"So, the Dragon King's sister is your wife."
Xiao Ran looked at Xu Mu indifferently.
"What Dragon King?"
Xu Mu frowned pretending to be puzzled.
Meng Wanyue broke out in a cold sweat. She hadn't even reacted just now.
If Xu Mu had answered yes, it would have proved that Meng Wanyue had told Xu Mu about the Dragon King.
Leaking confidential information was a capital offense.
"Hmm? Wanyue, didn't you tell him?"
Xiao Ran pinched Meng Wanyue's face with a smile.
"How could I leak the task assigned by the Dragon King."
Meng Wanyue lowered her head and said.
"Hehe, good! The Dragon King sent you to protect his dearest family. He was right."
Xiao Ran smiled and let go of Meng Wanyue, sizing up Xu Mu in front of her.
"Sister Ran, can I tell Mr. Xu about this?" Meng Wanyue asked.
"It's okay. The Dragon King has secretly returned to the country. He should meet him in a few days."
As Xiao Ran spoke, she said to Xu Mu, "Handsome guy, my sister and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Can you let us have a little chat in private?"
"Of course. Wanyue, then I'll leave first."
Xu Mu waved to Meng Wanyue and then turned to leave.
He didn't expect the Dragon King to come back so soon. However, at least for now, when the Dragon King returned and saw a loving family, he definitely wouldn't attack him.
In this way, he still had time to continue to develop.
After Xu Mu left the park, he originally thought about continuing to keep an eye on them through his perception outside, but then he thought better of it.
He wouldn't know what they were talking about even if he kept an eye on them. It was better to go back first.
...
Back in the office.
Xu Mu sat in the boss's chair. He thought the Dragon King model was quite good.
Apart from the Dragon King being powerful, he also had so many capable subordinates, which made things easier to handle.
He had the power of destiny and should also take some time to train the capable people around him.
An hour later.
There was a knock on the office door. Xu Mu sensed through his perception that it was Meng Wanyue who had come back.
So he said, "Come in."
Meng Wanyue pushed the door open and walked in.
"Mr. Xu..."
"Wanyue, I have to apologize first. When I saw you leave alone today, I guessed that it might be someone from the Dragon King who called you, so I secretly followed you."
Xu Mu stood up and said to Meng Wanyue.
[Favorable impression + 5]
Meng Wanyue said to Xu Mu, "Mr. Xu, you were just worried about my safety."
"However, it was really dangerous just now. I almost got tricked. I didn't expect that Xiao Ran would even test you."
Xu Mu came to Meng Wanyue's side and pulled her to sit on the sofa.
Meng Wanyue was stunned. Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Working under the Dragon King, one couldn't relax their mind at all.
It was still more relaxing here with Xu Mu.
But...
Thinking of this, Meng Wanyue's eyes became a little moist.
Seeing this, Xu Mu immediately put his arm around Meng Wanyue's shoulder and asked anxiously, "Wanyue, what's wrong with you?"
"Mr. Xu, I may have to leave you."
Meng Wanyue clenched her fists, and tears fell on her black stockings. "Sister Ran told me that after the Dragon King comes back, my mission will be over. I may be sent to other places. Maybe we'll never..."
"Wanyue!"
Hearing this, Xu Mu tightly held Meng Wanyue in his arms. "As long as your heart is with me, I'll have ways to keep you."
"Really?"
Meng Wanyue looked up at Xu Mu, her pretty face looking pitiful, like a wounded little kitten.
"Hahaha! Of course!"
Xu Mu scraped the tip of Meng Wanyue's nose with his finger. "Let me give you a simple example. You have such a good relationship with Ye Tong. She is the Dragon King's sister. With just one word from her, you can be kept by her side."
Hearing this, Meng Wanyue's eyes lit up, and she wiped away her tears with her sleeve. "Yes."
"Of course, I have other methods."
According to this progress, it was only a matter of time before Xu Mu caught up with the Dragon King.
By then, if Meng Wanyue wanted to follow him, would the Dragon King dare to disagree?
Looking at Meng Wanyue in front of him, Xu Mu was quite delighted. This bout of crying had already proven that between the Dragon King and Xu Mu, she had chosen the latter. Thinking of this, Xu Mu was ready to add fuel to the fire and took out the just - obtained Xuan - rank martial art.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
