I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

Chapter 138 Exposed

As soon as Xu Shu finished speaking, he heard Xiao Ran's voice coming from outside the house: "Mr. Xu asked me to come here just to let me watch this good show?"

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and rubbed Mu Jinghua's head. Then he stood up and looked back at Xiao Ran with an unchanged expression: "It's just that Lord Xiao came at the right time."

Xiao Ran came alone, and did not even bring those people from the yamen who were going to file a complaint.

Based on his understanding of Xu Shu, since someone was sent to find him, it was to give him face and make a big deal out of a small matter, or a small matter disappear.

But now seeing Xu Shu's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but shake his head: "I'm not saying that, Master Xu, you are the one who is fearless."

He glanced at Jiang Shan who had fainted and made an exaggerated expression: "How did Lord Jiang offend you to be beaten like this?"

Xu Shu snorted. He had long been accustomed to Xiao Ran's sarcastic attitude. He just explained the whole story to Xiao Ran in a pertinent manner. His request was also very clear: Jiang Shan, a scum in the officialdom, must be dismissed.

Ever since he saw how Xu Shu tortured the bandit leader last time, Xiao Ran felt more and more that Xu Shu was not a serious scholar.

Now that he only mentioned dismissal, it didn't seem like something Xu Shu would do: "Mr. Xu, are you in a good mood today?"

Xu Shu glanced at Mu Jinghua, and for a moment he couldn't tell what his mood was, but it was very complicated and helpless.

He frowned and said, "It doesn't matter how I feel."

Xiao Ran sighed and asked, "Then what crime should I accuse him of?"

Xu Shu didn't say anything, but just said: "Master Xiao has been immersed in the officialdom for many years. How can I know as much as you do?"

Xiao Ran laughed and said that Xu Shu was praising him.

The two of them started to exchange pleasantries, but Mu Jinghua no longer had the heart to listen. He glanced at Du Wanbai, who had been out of form, chuckled, and turned to look for Caidie and Limaoer.

Xu Shu specially arranged a room for him in Muyi Building for him to sleep, but Mu Jinghua liked to discuss things with Caidie and Limaoer here.

As soon as the door was closed, Caidie bowed to him politely, and then said hurriedly: "Master Mu, now even the officials have come. If those beggars are suspected, then Xiao Cui's death..."

Mu Jinghua smiled indifferently, waved his hand to signal him not to worry, and wrote on the paper: "In troubled times, human life is the most insignificant. With a fool like Jiang Shan confusing the public, Xu Shu and Xiao Ran will not investigate Xiao Cui in detail."

The civet cat took a look and asked cautiously, "Brother Mu, are you familiar with that official?"

When talking about Xiao Ran, Mu Jinghua remembered the day when he inadvertently poured tea for Xiao Ran and Xu Shu became jealous.

Xu Shu obviously didn't want him to be close to other men, so why couldn't he understand his dislike for Du Wanbai? He even told him to get along well with Du Wanbai. How annoying.

Caidie saw that Mu Jinghua seemed to be distracted, so she gently pushed Limaoer and called him softly, "Master Mu, Master Xu asked Du Wanbai to clean up Muyilou. Should we do something?"

Mu Jinghua came back to his senses and heard Du Wanbai's name again. He smiled contemptuously and wrote, "Let him be arrogant for a while. Anyone who covets Xu Shu must die."

The civet cat glanced at Caidie in fear, and then asked cautiously, "Actually, I think Brother Wanbai may not have any intention of..."

Mu Jinghua looked at him with cold eyes, and he suddenly didn't dare to continue speaking.

Mu Jinghua curled his lips slightly, but motioned for him to continue.

The raccoon cat only dared to hum softly, "I don't think Brother Wanbai has that intention towards Brother Xu. Aren't you neighbors? Brother Mu, can you please not kill Brother Wanbai?"

Mu Jinghua remained silent for a long while before picking up his pen and saying, "It depends on his performance."

"Have you taken care of the beggars?"

Caidie replied: "I have already paid."

Mu Jinghua picked up the pen and wrote: "Let you two ask the other team leaders how they would respond?"

"They said," Caidie also lowered her voice, "that you are still young and are more inclined to listen to Du Wanbai's instructions. After all, Du Wanbai was personally approved by Master Xu."

Mu Jinghua's eyes turned cold, and he recalled what Xu Shu had said to him at that time. If he wanted to completely take over Muyi Tower, he had to take down Du Wanbai.

At that time, he was just angry when he heard it, but now that he has calmed down a little, he has understood what Xu Shu meant. He sees that Xu Shu actually cares about him and gives him suggestions sincerely.

After all, he was young and of humble status, not as brilliant as Xu Shu, nor did he have the prestige and popularity that Du Wanbai had accumulated over the years.

Even Caidie was willing to listen to him and work for him, but it was only because she didn't get along with Xiao Cui and wanted to use his good relationship with Xu Shu to get promoted.

As for the raccoon cat, it was only because he accidentally discovered what Caidie had done and was frightened by Mu Jinghua's words that he agreed to listen to him.

Now that he heard that he was going to deal with Du Wanbai, didn't he immediately muster up the courage to come and beg for mercy?

Mu Jinghua sneered in his heart, but clenched the corner of his clothes and made up his mind secretly -

Muyilou and Xushu must both be his.

Mu Jinghua burned the words written on the paper, making sure that no traces were left, before slowly going out to find Xu Shu.

By this time Xiao Ran had already left. Xu Shu was sitting in the lobby drinking tea, while Du Wanbai stood aside, reporting things in a low voice.

Mu Jinghua looked at him with cold eyes for a long time, and indeed did not see Du Wanbai do anything inappropriate, so the sour feeling in his heart finally dissipated a little.

But she still asserted her sovereignty by holding Xu Shu's hand and said to him coquettishly, "Go home, go home."

Seeing him suddenly appear, Xu Shu's expression softened a bit: "Tired?"

Mu Jinghua raised his hand aggrievedly, then immediately put it down, looking as if he had already exhausted all his strength.

Xu Shu cooperated and said nervously, "You can't even lift your hands? You must be exhausted."

Mu Jinghua nodded seriously, then shook Xu Shu's sleeve, urging him to hurry up.

Xu Shu looked at Du Wanbai and ordered in a cold voice: "Remember what I told you."

He pulled Mu Jinghua into the carriage.

As soon as they entered the carriage, Xu Shu pinched Mu Jinghua's nose and pretended to be angry and said, "Little fool, you are quite good at acting."

Mu Jinghua turned his head away arrogantly, and Xu Shu gently pinched his chin and bent it back for him.

Mu Jinghua turned sideways again, and Xu Shu opened it again.

This happened three times, and Xu Shu twisted his chin again, and Mu Jinghua leaned over and kissed him.

Xu Shu's eyes flashed with helplessness, but he didn't push him away. He waited for a lingering kiss before whispering, "You don't like Du Wanbai, is it because you're jealous?"

Mu Jinghua lay on his chest, breathing lightly. When she heard him ask this, she struggled to sit up.

Xu Shu held him in his arms, not allowing him to get up, but continued: "Did you send someone to kill Xiao Cui?"

Mu Jinghua's body suddenly stiffened.
