Mu Yunyao didn't expect him to move so quickly. She stared blankly for a moment before regaining her senses. She got up and put on her dress, wiped off the cold sweat on her head, and let out a sigh of relief before walking out.
Yue Yang sat on the chair and caressed the sword hilt. No one knew what he was thinking.
Mu Yunyao glanced at it for a moment before withdrawing her gaze. She got up and walked behind the table to draw up the contract. The instant the tip of her pen touched the paper, she suddenly stopped and a crafty light flashed in her eyes.
In order to write this poem, she had to give away 30% of the Nebula Pavilion's money. It could be said that she had bought this poem with real money. Since that was the case, she had decided that she would not change her handwriting again in the future unless it was absolutely necessary!
Seeing the handwriting on the book, the King of Assassins glanced at Mu Yunyao but didn't say anything. He took the brush and wrote the three words: Fourth Master Ning.
Master Four, you're being a bit unkind. What I'm giving you is 30% profit from the real deal, and all you have to do is leave Master Ning behind. There are many people who are ranked fourth in this world; if something happens in the future, where can I find them?
"What are you going to do?" There was no dirt in the room. Mu Yunyao's eyes turned as she grabbed a box of rouge from the dressing table and wiped the rouge off King Yue's hand. She then quickly pressed it onto the paper and kept the contract, "Fourth Master, you have offended too many people.
It can't be that you care about her looks, right? "
King Yue lowered his eyes and looked at the rouge on his finger, but did not forcefully take back the contract. The Mu Yunyao in front of him had some guts, but was still unable to escape from his grasp. Seeing that King Yu was not angry, Mu Yunyao heaved a heavy sigh of relief. Her convulsed heart slowly calmed down. Although she was unwilling to admit it, she was still somewhat afraid of King Yue. If it was the Jin King or the Su Family, she would not have changed her expression and would have fought with them. However, facing King Fu, she had a feeling that ...
"There is a cold blade at the top of his head, ready to fall at any moment." "According to the information in the book, I will split 30% of the profits at the end of each month. I wonder where I should send it to?" It was not easy to tie up the King Yue, so they had to do their best. His fiefdom was in the west of Guangdong Province. If they left the way of communication, how would they use him in the future?
Do it?
"Let's go to the embroidery garden next door to find Supervisor Qin."
Next door? Mu Yunyao was stunned. Could it be that the embroidered garden next door was actually the property of the Winged King? Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence? No wonder he was able to find her so quickly.
"One more thing. Master Four, when we were at the back of Weir Village, you pulled a red string from my neck. There was a small bag on the rope, and although it wasn't a precious item, it was from my mother. Please prepare carefully, Master Fourth, and please return it."
"I've lost it."
Lost? Mu Yunyao felt unwell in her heart. Her mother had worn it for her since the full moon, and it hadn't left her body for so many years. After her father passed away, she slept soundly every night while holding that small bag.
"Lord Fourth should also give me a keepsake. It'll be convenient for me to contact Steward Qin in the future."
Yue Yang gave her a smile that wasn't a smile before taking out an item from his bosom and throwing it at her.
Mu Yunyao subconsciously caught the dagger in her hand. It was the dagger she had taken from the King's side the other day. However, it was equipped with a sheath. Looking at it, it was more than half a foot long and was good for self-defense.
Mu Yunyao was quite satisfied with the dagger in her hand. Only then did she feel more at ease. If Yue Yang regretted it in the future and wanted to go back, she would also tell him that she lost it.
Since they had already finished discussing, Mu Yunyao glanced at the sky outside, "Fourth Master, it's getting late, you should also go back and rest, right?"
Hearing her say that she would like to chase him away, a trace of displeasure flashed across King Yue's heart, but the time that he had wasted was not short. It was indeed a good idea to return. He stood up, his tall figure was wrapped in a cold aura as he strode past Mu Yunyao and out the door.
After a long while, Mu Yunyao dispiritedly sat down on the chair and reached out her hands to thump her slightly weak legs. The aura emitted from the Winged King was truly frightening, but with that written agreement, she could be considered to have earned this deal.
At the corner of the brocade garden, Yu Heng saw King Yue's figure moving across the wall and heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly went up and greeted him, "Mistress, are you alright?"
The Titan King glanced at him and nodded. He did not reply and returned to his bedroom.
Yu Heng turned around just in time to see Supervisor Qin poking his head out of the room. The two of them had left the bedroom and were whispering to each other as they walked to the pavilion.
Supervisor Qin: "Master just went to see that little girl Mu next door, right?"
Yu Heng: "Aren't you asking the obvious?" Ha, that Lady Mu is beautiful and dainty, Zhong Lingxiu is beautiful. I have never seen anyone in my time in Jiangnan who is more forceful in terms of spirit energy than her." Although he was still a bit young, he should have been able to raise him for two more years. Furthermore, he was also a bit young and had a simple personality. Raising him since he was young might not harm him ...
He was afraid that his master would be covered in cold sweat.
When Yu Heng saw the strange smile on Steward Qin's face, he unconsciously moved away from him."Things have yet to happen. Don't communicate with Eunuch Cheng. If you spoil Master's plans, it will be terrible."
Chief Steward Qin and Eunuch Cheng were old acquaintances. Both of them were old men by the side of their masters, and they both had a great favor for their masters. Normally, their master was extremely respectful towards them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have placed Jiang Nan in the hands of Steward Qin.
However, the matter regarding that Lady Mu was extremely important. As for how Mistress's mind was still uncertain, it would be terrible if they were to do anything to her.
Steward Qin rolled his eyes at Yu Heng before slowly walking away with his hands behind his back. He and Old Cheng had been by his master's side for twenty years, how could they not know about this? He was only anxious because Master was already in the year of the weak, but he did not even have a maid by his side. They were also worried that the vile past would be the one to create the master's life for him, but now that the master was in the year of the weak, he did not even have a maid by his side ...

It became damage.
It was unknown if it was because of the fright or not, but Mu Yunyao slept extremely unstably that night. When it was dawn, she felt dizzy, and after washing her face, she looked at the wound on her neck in the mirror. The wound had already healed and scabbed over, but if one looked carefully, they could still see it, so they could only carefully covered it with scented powder.
Su Qing saw that she was not in high spirits and couldn't help but to ask worriedly, "Yao'er, how about we rest for a day today?"
Mu Yunyao immediately roused herself, "Mother, I'm fine, it's just that I didn't sleep well last night. Today, he had already made an appointment with the two madams, so he couldn't cancel it."Rest assured, after receiving the two ladies, I will go upstairs to sleep. I promise that when I come back tonight, I will be full of life again."
Su Qing laughed at her. She pointed at the tip of her nose and said, "Alright, you have to be extra careful. If you feel uncomfortable, ask Jin Lan, Jin Qi and the rest to tell me." "I understand mother."
