Mu Tianyan took the handkerchief Mu Yunhao gave him and wiped the blood on his mouth. After hearing that, he paused, “Work?”
“Yeah!”
Lu Zijia nodded gently.
“Didn’t Uncle He tell you what I’ve been doing these days?
“This shouldn’t happen. Uncle He is very serious when it comes to work. He wouldn’t forget to tell you.”
Lu Zijia looked relaxed as if she was talking about something unimportant.
However, what she said made the expressions of Mu Yunhao and the ten subordinates change slightly.
Only Mu Tianyan’s expression still remained the same as if he didn’t understand the hidden meaning in Lu Zijia’s words at all.
Without hearing the reply from the man, Lu Zijia didn’t mind at all as she continued, “In fact, I’ve already died once when I was thrown into your room before.
“But the King of Hell said that I was tough and it wasn’t time for me to die yet, so he sent me back.
“Besides, he even gave me a huge present so I could be a human being again. The King of Hell is really a good man, isn’t he?” Lu Zijia said happily. Apparently, she was talking nonsense seriously.
And even without a pause!
Mu Yunhao and the others: “…”
Rather than thinking if Lu Zijia was talking nonsense, they actually wanted to ask, “Is the King of Hell a human being?”
“Really?”
Compared to the speechless reaction of Mu Yunhao and the others, Mu Tianyan’s reaction had a deep meaning and made Lu Zijia a bit shocked.
Even though Lu Zijia found his reaction a bit strange, she still nodded.
“Yeah!”
Mu Tianyan stopped wiping the blood and looked ahead with a deep gaze, thinking about something.
“Then, can you tell me what present the King of Hell gave you?” Mu Tianyan’s voice didn’t seem to have any intonation at all.
The smile on Lu Zijia’s face became brighter, and her tone was a bit mischievous.
“Guess. Second Master, you’re so smart. I’m sure you’ll be able to guess it.”
“Oh? Then, I must really make a guess.”
Mu Tianyan curled up the corners of his mouth slightly as his cold eyes became deeper and bottomless.
Lu Zijia narrowed her eyes slightly and nodded constantly.
“Make a guess. Think about it slowly. I’m not in a hurry.”
This man had already noticed that something was wrong with her, but he still wanted to go around the bush and play dumb with her.
This was truly… enough!
However, if this man wanted to play with her, she couldn’t admit defeat so easily, could she?
As soon as Lu Zijia spoke, the dozen people in the group went silent, except for the sound of them walking.
Mu Tianyan seemed like he was really thinking about what present the King of Hell had given Lu Zijia seriously.
When they walked to the house they rented, Mu Tianyan finally said, “I’m sorry to let you down. I have no idea. Madam, you should tell me.”
Lu Zijia: “….”
Madam… This man called her that so naturally. He wouldn’t really think she was his wife, would he?
Even though she was legally Mu Tianyan’s wife in this world.
In fact, she didn’t care at all.
After all, she was a cultivator. She would definitely go on the road of cultivativation in the future like she did in her previous life.
As she reached a higher level, her lifespan would also become longer. Once she entered the Golden Core level, she could even live five centuries.
However, ordinary people had only a century of time, which wasn’t even worth mentioning for a cultivator.
So, she had never thought that the red notebook Mu Tianyan gave her before could restrain her.
Without getting a reply from the person behind him, Mu Tianyan turned his head slightly.
“Madam?”
