Xu Mu had already returned to Jiang City with Xu Ningbing, this time with Xu Mu driving.
Xu Ningbing sat in the passenger seat, holding her phone and watching it. Seeing that the time was about right, she directly called Yan Baizhi.
After about ten seconds, Yan Baizhi's voice came from the other end, "Sister Xu, is that you?"
"Miss Yan, I wanted to ask, after you returned, have you discussed it with your family?"
Xu Ningbing asked into the phone.
"Sister Xu, you jest. It's still early morning; when would I have had time to discuss it with my family?"
Yan Baizhi probed from the other side, "Has Sister already gone back?"
"Yes, still on the road. We'll be home in another hour or two."
Xu Ningbing continued asking, "Then when can you give me a reply?"
"Cooperating with your Xu family will inevitably offend the Cui family. We definitely need to deliberate carefully. I will contact you proactively in a few days."
Yan Baizhi said from the other end.
"A few days? Okay, I understand."
After saying that, Xu Ningbing hung up the phone. She cracked the window open a slit and said calmly, "Xiao Mu, you guessed right. She does want to string us along, aiming to have the Cui family deal with the Xu family."
"After all, Wu Tian and I are enemies."
Xu Mu had known this all along; he had seen and heard it himself.
"Cui Yunshen had such a thing happen to him; he definitely won't let us off. We need to be careful these next few days."
Xu Ningbing looked at Xu Mu as she spoke.
But only after seeing the smile on Xu Mu's face did she realize.
She had heard from Xu Shou before that, generally speaking, someone at the late-stage Gang Qi level could establish a hidden-world family.
That meant, with Xu Ningbing's current level, she could serve as the head of a hidden-world family.
So why should she still be afraid of the Cui family, another hidden-world family?
Even if she wasn't a match, the Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo that Xu Mu was currently training could handle it.
She looked at Xu Mu who was driving, her eyes flickering slightly.
The achievements she had now were almost entirely because of Xu Mu.
[Favorability +15]
...
Returning to Jiang City.
Xu Mu first drove the car to his own villa. After he got out, Xu Ningbing drove the car to the company.
Back home, Xu Mu caught up on some sleep. At eleven in the morning, he was startled awake by an unknown call.
After answering, he found out it was an insurance company. His Geely car, which had been in an accident last time in Jiangnan, was now repaired and had been delivered to the entrance of the villa complex.
Xu Mu simply washed his face and went to the main gate of the villa.
After getting the car keys, Xu Mu drove off to find Zhong Qianqian.
The video he obtained this time needed her help to coordinate.
Xu Mu was someone who understood sharing. He felt somewhat bad about always calling people to ask for help.
This time, he planned to give her a Hongyuan Dan as compensation.
Anyway, Xu Mu wasn't short on such things now; there were still many medicinal herbs in the garage that hadn't been used yet.
...
After calling Zhong Qianqian, Xu Mu arrived at the residential complex where she currently lived.
This was a newly built complex, with an occupancy rate of less than half.
Underneath one of the building units, Zhong Qianqian was wearing a red plaid princess dress today, with shoulder-length short hair and a red bow on the side, looking beautiful and charming.
"Xu Mu."
Zhong Qianqian waved with a smile.
Xu Mu walked over with a smile, "I didn't expect you to live here. The environment is nice."
"New complexes are all like this now; the landscaping is better."
Zhong Qianqian led Xu Mu into the elevator, "What brings you to see me today?"
"This time I got a few elixirs. I came to give you one. Of course, I also have something to ask for your help with."
As Xu Mu spoke, he took out a Hongyuan Dan from his person.
"What kind of elixir is this?"
Zhong Qianqian asked curiously.
"A sixth-grade Hongyuan Dan. It can directly increase one's own strength."
Xu Mu explained with a smile.
"What? Hongyuan Dan?"
Zhong Qianqian was stunned, "You... are giving this to me?"
"You've heard of it?"
Xu Mu was somewhat surprised.
"Of course. I've heard that within those top sects, the big shots use Hongyuan Dan and Qihai Dan to enhance their descendants."
Zhong Qianqian couldn't believe why Xu Mu would give such a precious elixir to her.
Could it be he wanted to use this elixir to buy her... body?
"You know quite a bit. Take it."
Xu Mu placed the elixir in Zhong Qianqian's hand.
Zhong Qianqian took the elixir, her body stiffening. If he really wanted it, should she give in?
If she didn't, then this elixir would surely have nothing to do with her.
Zhong Qianqian really needed this elixir. If she took a sixth-grade Qihai Dan, she was sure she could leap from the late-stage Ming Jin to An Jin.
"What are you standing there dumbfounded for? Press the elevator."
Xu Mu patted Zhong Qianqian's back.
Only then did Zhong Qianqian snap out of it, hurriedly pressing the button for the 8th floor.
The two stepped out of the elevator. Zhong Qianqian entered the passcode and led Xu Mu into the apartment.
At this moment, Zhong Qianqian was still tightly clutching the elixir in her hand, considering whether to return it to Xu Mu.
Having grown up this big, all her lovers were paper characters (2D); she had never let a man touch her.
Was it worth it, just for one elixir?
Her heart was tangled in constant conflict.
"Why aren't you taking it?"
Xu Mu looked at Zhong Qianqian's expression and asked curiously.
"Ah? Oh, oh, I think we should handle your matter first."
Zhong Qianqian said with a smile, looking at Xu Mu.
"Okay."
Xu Mu took out his phone, "I have two videos here. I want you to help edit them. Also, I'd like to ask a question."
"What question?"
"How to spread this video without breaking the law."
Xu Mu smiled as he opened the surveillance video on his phone.
Zhong Qianqian took the phone, "What video... Holy crap!"
When she saw the footage, she looked up at Xu Mu again.
An implication. This guy was definitely implying something.
"They are considered my enemies. Originally, the male lead above might have been me. In the end, I turned the tables and trapped them instead."
Xu Mu explained with a smile, "I'm not afraid of them using force. I'm afraid they'll use economic means against our Xu family; that would waste my time."
"Understood. That's too easy."
Zhong Qianqian said with a smile, "Actually, you don't need me. You just need to upload the video to those risky websites. You won't need to promote it; everyone will definitely spread the word."
Xu Mu thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "That's true. The video has too many explosive elements; it's bound to go viral."
"Let me edit the video first."
Zhong Qianqian took the phone and walked into the bedroom. There was a computer desk and a small refrigerator here.
After transferring the video to the computer and watching the footage, Zhong Qianqian's cheeks flushed slightly, occasionally stealing glances at Xu Mu.
Although she often watched similar things alone at home, there was a man beside her now.
She had never been in such a situation before.
Zhong Qianqian edited out Xu Mu from the footage. The timestamp on the surveillance remained unchanged.
"Done. I have a backup here. If you need me to release the video, just call."
Zhong Qianqian returned the phone to Xu Mu.
Xu Mu nodded, "Thank you. The real show is about to begin."
He believed this video could threaten Cui Yunshen. Then he would find a way to make him and Yan Baizhi fight each other.
This woman dared to move against the Xu family for Wu Tian's sake; Xu Mu was definitely going to teach her a lesson.
"What's next? A good show?"
Zhong Qianqian was stunned for a moment. Well, well, he was saying it outright now, not even bothering to hide it.
