Chapter 103: Here comes another bootlicker at 103

"Don’t worry, don’t worry, rumors in the world are often exaggerated and can’t be taken entirely at face value. I believe the young master isn’t that kind of person," Che Xiang declared confidently.

Not that kind of person, huh? Why do I feel like I am exactly that kind of person? Hmm, this Che Xiang, I can’t say much for other things, but at least his eye for detail is not bad. He noticed my beautiful and kind-hearted nature so quickly. Big Playboy Mu stroked his chin, quite vainly admiring himself.

"Here comes another flatterer," Huayue muttered, her gaze filled with contempt as she looked at Zirong.

"Hey, if you have something to say about him, say it, but why are you looking at me? Am I the kind of person who is ignorant and only knows how to butter someone up?" Zirong became enraged, questioning indignantly.

"Yes!" Huayue didn’t respond, but Mu Hanyan and Mu Nan simultaneously said in unison.

Zirong opened his mouth to speak but, in the end, wisely chose silence to avoid a new barrage of verbal attacks.

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but laugh together, and the atmosphere became incredibly warm for a while.

Mu Hanyan walked to the table and picked up the Water Orchid that Yuan Tianbo had discarded.

"It’s just a useless weed, nothing to look at. I’ll throw it away," Mu Nan said.

"No need to bother moving, do you think my last few words to Yuan Tianbo were just to annoy him? Whether he has internal or external hemorrhoids is none of my business. Why bother with all that nonsense?" Mu Hanyan said irritably.

"You mean to say, you intentionally pissed him off just to prevent him from taking this Water Orchid with him?" Mu Nan exclaimed, suddenly enlightened.

Zirong and Huayue’s eyes also shone; they had thought Mu Hanyan’s words at the time were just to provoke Yuan Tianbo, but now they realized it was a deliberate act to make him angrily leave behind the Water Orchid.

Thinking about it, this tactic was not new for Mu Hanyan; her previous shaming and infuriating of Yuan Tianbo was not as straightforward as it seemed; there was always an ulterior motive.

The so-called ’ten steps ahead in strategy’ was referring to someone like Mu Hanyan, right? Realizing all this, not just Zirong, even Huayue’s eyes glittered with admiration. The young master is truly exceptional! Zirong made a firm resolution to follow the young master closely and learn well—to strive to be shrewd and smart in the future.

"However, this Water Orchid isn’t worth anything, so what’s the use of keeping it?" After the realization, Mu Nan asked again like a curious baby.

Mu Hanyan didn’t answer but started to examine the Water Orchid closely.

Just as beasts can mutate into Exotic Beasts, plants can also undergo such mutations through natural evolution. Water Orchid and Fire Orchid are of the same family, and just by appearance, they are just different in color, so such mutations aren’t really a big deal.

To anyone else, after understanding the truth, it’d be normal to regard it as a useless plant and discard it.

But Mu Hanyan had received a hint from Star Illusion Thousand Machine and knew this Water Orchid must be related to the Dragon Blood Stone.

Yet, no matter how carefully she observed, she couldn’t find anything unusual.

"Could it be that this Water Orchid just happened to grow near a Dragon Blood Stone, absorbed what’s called the Dragon Blood Essence, and thus mutated?" Mu Hanyan easily made such a guess. Knowing about the existence of the Dragon Blood Stone, it wasn’t a hard deduction to make. Anyone with a bit of common sense could guess this.
