Xiao Ran winked at Xu Mu. "Mr. Xu, thank you so much for saving my life this time. The blood yam isn't with me. I need to go back and get it first. Can I bring it to you tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow probably won't work. My family and I are planning to go on a trip."
Xu Mu glanced at Xiao Ran. "Otherwise, I'll leave a small gap in the window for you tomorrow. You can just slip the thing through the window."
"Mr. Xu, this is a fourth - grade natural treasure. Are you really that trusting? Maybe I'll just run away."
Xiao Ran rolled her eyes.
She had paid a high price to obtain this blood yam back then.
"I used a seventh - grade natural treasure to save you. Although it wasn't intact, it was still very expensive."
Xu Mu leaned back on the sofa and said slowly, "If you're not even willing to part with a fifth - grade natural treasure, I'll have to ask your boss for it."
"Hehe, I'm just joking. Mr. Xu saved my life. Even if I give you the blood yam, I still owe you a favor."
Xiao Ran put her hands in the pockets of her overcoat. "It's getting late. I won't disturb you guys anymore."
"I'll see you off."
Although Xu Mu said so, he didn't get up from the sofa.
"No need."
Xiao Ran waved her hand and left the villa.
Once outside the villa, she took a few deep breaths and found that her body didn't hurt anymore.
She looked back at the villa again, with a slight smile on her lips. This Xu Mu was quite interesting.

...
Ye Tong and Ye Yu had been struggling for a long time. Finally, they thought that it was just a simple weekend and there was no need to go to a very far place.
Thinking about Ye Chen's upcoming return, they decided to go back to their hometown in Yang City.
Xu Mu also told Ye Tong about Meng Wanyue's identity. She was also sent by Ye Chen.
The purpose was to protect the two sisters. It would be better to go with Meng Wanyue.
Ye Tong naturally agreed.
Xu Mu immediately sent a message to Meng Wanyue, telling her not to come to work tomorrow.
Meng Wanyue quickly agreed.
...
Early the next morning.
Ye Tong got up early to make breakfast.
While they were having breakfast, Xu Mu, as usual, earned two lots of justice points.
"Honey, this floral dress suits you perfectly."
"Xiaoyu, this wrap - around dress looks so beautiful on you. If I hadn't met your sister, I'd marry you right away."

[Favorability + 20]
Especially Ye Yu. When she heard what Xu Mu said about her, her heart started to race.
Xu Mu drove to Meng Wanyue's residential area.
As soon as he arrived, he sent a message to Meng Wanyue and then checked through his perception.
His perception range had now expanded to 200 meters. Even on the other side of the community gate, he could easily cover Meng Wanyue's house.
"Hmm?"
Xu Mu's eyes suddenly lit up. He found that Xiao Ran was lying in Meng Wanyue's bedroom at the moment.
Apparently, she had stayed at Meng Wanyue's place last night.
Xiao Ran was lying in bed, hugging the quilt. Her body was curvy.
Meng Wanyue had already put on a simple casual outfit and was talking to Xiao Ran. It was obvious that she was saying goodbye.
After that, Meng Wanyue left quickly, trotting towards the elevator.
Not long after, she appeared in front of them.
"Mr. Xu, let me drive."
Meng Wanyue offered actively.
"Okay."
Xu Mu nodded and got out of the car.
After Meng Wanyue got in the car, she greeted Ye Tong in the back row, "Sister Ye."
"Wanyue, thank you for your hard work. Making you get up so early." Ye Tong said with a smile.
"I usually get up at this time." Meng Wanyue said softly.
Xu Mu sent the address to Meng Wanyue and then sat in the front passenger seat.
There were no accidents on the highway this time. It only took two hours for them to arrive in Yang City.
"Brother - in - law, let's go to the suburbs. There are scenic spots there."
Ye Yu said from the back.
"Okay, send me the address." Xu Mu nodded.
Ye Yu immediately took out her phone and sent the address.
Xu Mu then forwarded the address to Meng Wanyue's phone.
When they arrived at the place Ye Yu mentioned, Meng Wanyue parked the car in a roadside parking space, and they all got out of the car together.
There was a small river in front of them. The willow trees on the bank swayed gently in the breeze.
Both Ye Tong and Ye Yu looked across the river. There were high - rise buildings being constructed there.
"That used to be our home."
Ye Yu pointed across the river, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
Ye Tong also shook her head slightly. "A few years ago, my dad sold the manor to cover the losses and debts. I didn't expect it to be demolished and new buildings to be built so soon."
"Don't think about it. People always have to look forward."
Xu Mu stood between the two of them and put his arms around their shoulders respectively. "Didn't you say there are scenic spots nearby? This is your territory. You're the tour guides today."

The Ye Tong and Ye Yu sisters knew that Xu Mu was trying to change the topic.
"Brother - in - law, come with me! Walk along this riverbank. It's not far. There's an ancient town there."
Ye Yu pointed to the left. "My sister and I used to like to go there for a stroll after dinner. There are a lot of snacks inside."
"Okay, lead the way." Xu Mu smiled.
They didn't drive but walked there. They had just walked for a short while when they reached the entrance of the ancient town.
Ye Yu pulled Ye Tong and was originally running towards the entrance with a smile on her face, but she suddenly stopped.
Xu Mu and Meng Wanyue, who were following behind, also stopped.
"What's wrong?" Xu Mu asked.
"If it were in the past, my sister and I didn't have to pay the entrance fee, but now..."
"Hehe, do you think I can't afford it?"
Xu Mu patted Ye Yu on the head.
After they bought the tickets, they entered the ancient town. This ancient town was built along the water. The river was clear and green, sparkling in the sunlight.
From time to time, small boats drifted by on the river.
The two banks were connected by ancient bridges. The scenery was very beautiful.
The only drawback was that it was too commercialized.
In this so - called ancient town, there were no residents, only shops.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Don't take pictures!"
Just then, a young man with a sign around his neck shouted not far away.
Everyone on this road was pushed aside.
Ye Tong was standing in the middle of the road, taking a photo of Ye Yu.
This young man pushed Ye Tong on the back, almost knocking her down.
Xu Mu was immediately furious when he saw this and walked over with Meng Wanyue right away.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
When this young man saw Xu Mu standing there, before he could even push, Meng Wanyue grabbed his wrist.
Instantly, the young man let out a pig - like scream.
"Wanyue, let him go."
Xu Mu shook his head at Meng Wanyue.
Meng Wanyue then let go and immediately went to Ye Tong's side. "Sister Ye, are you okay?"
Xu Mu asked indifferently, "Whose dog is this? Where's its owner? Get out here!"
This young man covered his wrist and said with an unfriendly look, "Don't block the way!"
"Did you build this scenic area? We all bought tickets to get in. What right do you have to push us aside? Are you an emperor?"
Xu Mu's voice was loud and firm, clearly reaching all around.
The people who had been pushed aside by him for no reason earlier all responded in agreement.
"Exactly! Why are you shoving us? Can't you just go around?"
"Even if you said 'excuse me', it would be okay. You're in such a hurry. Are you rushing to visit your mother's grave?"
...
Realizing that he had incurred public wrath, the young man shrank his head and dared not say a word.
"I remember this scenic area is a local state-owned scenic area. Every brick and tile here is paid for by taxpayers. In other words, we are the shareholders here. How dare you act so boldly," Xu Mu said expressionlessly.
Just then, a person walked out from the crowd behind.

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
