Chapter 40: Time will prove everything in 40 hours
Zirong returned to her residence and saw Huayue applying medicine. All the wound medicine was of high quality, sent by Mu Hanyan previously, and there was a lot of it.
"Hey, are you okay?" Zirong asked.
"I won’t die," Huayue answered in a muffled voice.
"Tsk, I obviously know you won’t die," Zirong clicked her tongue and then excitedly started talking about what happened in the back courtyard of the restaurant. "At that time, I couldn’t believe my own eyes. You know, that Mutant Wind Pig didn’t even scratch the Young Master... You should have seen Fourth Miss Zhao’s expression, tsk tsk, it was just perfect. I only then realized, the Young Master is truly talented, he can kill without even using a weapon. Just with that mouth..."
After Huayue had finished applying the medicine, she indifferently said, "Are you done?"
"I’m done, oh, wait, why are you so boring? Aren’t you curious why the Young Master knew such a secret thing? Don’t you find it strange that the Young Master escaped unscathed from that Exotic Beast’s attack? Aren’t you curious at all?" Zirong rambled on and on, and after all that, Huayue only had a plain reply, which really frustrated him.
"No matter how others view the Young Master, I only know he is a good person." It was only then that Huayue lifted her head and glanced at Zirong, saying just that.
"Eh? How did you decide the Young Master is a good person? Isn’t there a rumor out there that he is practically despised by everyone?" Zirong, seeing Huayue so unresponsive, was annoyed and continued to interrogate.
"I don’t care how he treats others. I know how he treats me," Huayue said, then stopped paying attention to Zirong and continued to rest with her eyes closed.
Zirong twitched the corner of his mouth; he hadn’t realized it. Huayue, this reticent person, actually had a mind clear as a mirror.
But, he had to admit, she was very right about one thing.
How the Young Master treated others was not their concern; to them, he really was wonderful. Moreover, the more they interacted with him, the more Zirong became alarmed. The Young Master was not the playboy that rumors made him out to be; what kind of person he actually was, Zirong was starting to feel unclear about. However, Zirong firmly believed that time would prove everything. He had a premonition that in the coming days, the Young Master would provide him with more and more surprises.
"By the way, the Young Master told you to rest for a few more days," Zirong remembered Mu Hanyan’s instructions and mentioned.
"These injuries are nothing," Huayue said firmly, without even lifting her eyelids.
Zirong rolled his eyes again; this guy’s body really was extraordinarily resilient.
The incident of Fourth Miss Zhao being chased and disfigured by the Mutant Wind Pig had been kept under wraps by a joint effort of the Zhou Family and the Zhao Family and did not spread further. But the various aristocratic families couldn’t be kept in the dark. In just a short while, almost all the aristocratic families in Heishi City knew about it, including the Mu Family.
In the main hall of the Mu Family,
The Great Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder, and Mu Rui’an all sat solemnly in their respective seats. Although they might have had their disagreements regarding the position of City Lord, they were united when it came to external affairs. Upon hearing about the incident involving Fourth Miss Zhao, they had gathered here.
"It’s unexpected, the Zhou Family secretly had such strength. To think they were clandestinely breeding an Exotic Beast," the Great Elder said with emotion.
"And it’s even a pig, which is really rare," the Second Elder said, twitching his lips.
"However, I didn’t expect that it would be Hanyan who brought it out," the Third Elder continued.
