Xu Mu pulled the middle-aged man up. According to him, his name was Zhou Guoqiang.
Originally from a small sect, his strength was not bad, having already reached the level of externalizing Astral Qi.
Later, this sect was wiped out by the people from the Immortality Research Institute, and the experts were all forced to drink poisonous wine.
He saw with his own eyes that the people of the sect, because of their addiction to the wine, rolled madly on the ground, constantly smashed their heads against the wall, and finally stabbed themselves in the head with daggers.
From then on, Zhou Guoqiang became a dog of the Immortality Research Institute.
He was afraid of death and wanted to live, so he could only do all kinds of difficult tasks for the Immortality Research Institute's poisonous wine.
The more dangerous the task, the more wine he received.
For people like them, the Immortality Research Institute almost never forced them to do anything.
When they had no wine in their hands, they would automatically look for the contacts of the Immortality Research Institute and beg them to assign tasks.
His task this time was to monitor whether Xu Mu was still alive, whether Tong Guoguo was here, and whether the Xu family was holding a funeral for Xu Mu.
After listening to this person's words, Xu Mu nodded slightly. "That is to say, currently in Jiang City, Wang Hun only left you alone?"
"Yes, the order from above is that as long as a funeral is held for you, I can withdraw."
Zhou Guoqiang nodded.
"Okay, if the higher-ups ask you these next few days, just say the funeral hasn't been held yet, and you haven't seen me."
Xu Mu took out his phone. "When there is a change, I will notify you."
Zhou Guoqiang and Xu Mu exchanged contact information.
Before leaving, Xu Mu suddenly smiled and asked, "Do you know why Wang Hun wants to kill me?"
"I don't know."
Zhou Guoqiang shook his head.
"Because I got the recipe for the poisonous wine. Before long, I can make as much of this poisonous wine as I want."
Xu Mu painted a big picture for Zhou Guoqiang. "As long as you truly follow me, you can live to an old age."
Hearing this, Zhou Guoqiang's pupils shrank to pinpricks.
Originally, his idea was to help Xu Mu do things first, and when his poisonous wine was consumed, he would immediately continue to take refuge with Wang Hun.
But he didn't expect that Xu Mu could continuously produce poisonous wine.
Then what was the point of following Wang Hun?
Xu Mu and Tong Guoguo left together and returned to the villa.
After simply packing up, Xu Mu drove and brought Tong Guoguo, Ye Yu, and Bai Yi to Jiang City University.
This place was also Xu Mu's alma mater. According to his memory, back then Xu Shouzheng built a library just for Xu Mu.
As for Xu Ningbing, she had studied well since childhood and went directly abroad to study in university.
There was no luggage or bedding in the car. According to Ye Yu, everything was in her ring.
This thing was indeed very convenient.
Arriving in front of the university, they found many vehicles parked around, mostly parents driving over to send their children to school.
From elementary school to high school, most students would stay locally. University was considered the students' first long trip.
After getting out of the car, Xu Mu led the few people and walked towards the school.
In the distance, there were stalls set up by senior students, with the various majors of the school written on them.
When Ye Yu and Bai Yi appeared here, it immediately caused many people to look sideways.
"Look, she seems to be Ye Yu, the school belle of our First High School."
"The girl with twin tails next to her is also very beautiful."
...
Xu Mu spread out his perception, and the surrounding discussions all reached his ears.
He smiled and rubbed Ye Yu's head. This girl was quite popular.
However, this was also a fact.
Ye Yu was indeed very cute. If there was any shortcoming, it was her height, but she wasn't considered short, at least passing the average line.
What's more, Ye Yu had an advantage, which was having a small figure but big assets.
Her volume at this time had already surpassed Ye Tong's.
The major Ye Yu applied for was a very unpopular archaeology, and Bai Yi naturally did the same.
As an unpopular subject, there was completely no one here, so there was no need to queue.
The person sitting here didn't look like a student, but should be a teacher.
This woman was wearing a black uniform, with a well-proportioned body, and she was about twenty-four or five years old.
She wore her hair long, without a trace of makeup, and her eyes had deep dark circles.
But precisely because she was beautiful, it gave people a feeling of a decadent beauty.
Xu Mu frowned slightly, always feeling that this woman looked a bit familiar, but couldn't remember.
He looked at this woman through the Eye of God.
Name: Lyu Yan
Character: Director of the Archaeology Department of Jiang City University, female lead of "Returning from Cultivation to be a Stay-at-home Dad".
Favorability: 13
Destiny Level: 8 (Max level 10)
Seeing this, Xu Mu was stunned. It was actually Lyu Yan, his high school classmate.
He remembered that this woman was a transparent person in the class. Back then, Xu Mu sat in the corner of the last row and even shared a desk with her.
He didn't expect that his former classmate was actually in Hat Bro's harem.
This time Xu Mu wanted to figure out whether Lyu Yan had ever been married.
If she was still a pure maiden, it proved that Hat Bro only found Nalan Shisan like that.
Then it was still acceptable.
But if all the ones he found were like this, Xu Mu would really laugh.
He walked over and sat directly on the chair.
Lyu Yan raised her head, and her dull eyes suddenly widened. "You are... Xu Mu?"
"Lyu Yan? What a coincidence, to actually meet you here."
Xu Mu feigned surprise. In fact, in the original villain Xu Mu's memory, he had long forgotten this woman.
[Favorability +5]
"I didn't expect you to still remember me. How rare."
Lyu Yan brushed her long hair and revealed a faint smile.
"Brother-in-law, you know each other?"
Ye Yu asked from the side.
"My high school classmate."
Xu Mu said with a smile.
"Young Master Xu is truly a forgetful nobleman. We were not only high school classmates, we also went to university here, just not in the same department."
Lyu Yan propped up her cheek and smiled at Xu Mu.
"Uh... I brought my two sisters over to register."
Xu Mu grabbed Ye Yu and Bai Yi's hands respectively. "Ye Yu, Bai Yi."
Hearing the names, Lyu Yan quickly found them on the list in front of her.
"Alright, this time our archaeology department recruited more than ten students. We only have one class."
Lyu Yan smiled. "For the dormitory, do you plan to share with other departments, or spend more money to live in a two-person dormitory?"
"Two-person dormitory."
Xu Mu also didn't want them to be disturbed by others.
"As expected of Young Master Xu."
Lyu Yan recorded it on her phone. "You will receive a text message on your phones in a moment. This is our class group. You two scan it, and if there's anything you don't understand, ask in there."
Ye Yu and Bai Yi took out their phones respectively.
Xu Mu, on the other hand, sized up Lyu Yan and asked with a smile, "Lyu Yan, are you married?"
"No, why? Does Young Master Xu want to marry me? Then I must ask for more betrothal gifts."
Lyu Yan smiled at Xu Mu.
"I find that you're more talkative than before. When we were in the same class, you didn't say a word."
Xu Mu was full of surprise.
"Wasn't I afraid at that time? Young Master Xu hit whoever he found displeasing. How would I dare talk to you?"
Lyu Yan said sarcastically.
Xu Mu frowned slightly. This woman dared to mock him. In his memory, he had never provoked her.
He said indifferently, "It seems you'll be raising sheep after graduation. Rather than mocking me, why don't you beg me to help you solve it?"
