But now, you have suddenly disappeared! Are you going to vanish forever from my life? Are you going to leave me alone and lonely in this world? Why didn’t the Emperor stop you? Why didn’t he treat you well? If I had his power, if I could control my own destiny, or even the destinies of others, then I would definitely keep you by my side and treat you well.
But Mu Xiaoxiao, how could you disappear like this? How could you bear to abandon me? What should I do? What should I do about you? Mu Xiaoxiao, come back...
At this moment, Mu Xiaoxiao was riding on an animal that was neither a donkey nor a horse, struggling with the beast. "Little one, I'm not telling you to call out, I'm telling you to walk, understand?"
Mu Xiaoxiao woke up and had already left the cave, appearing in a horse field. This was the first time Mu Xiaoxiao had seen so many beasts galloping, which was exciting—however, she couldn't even subdue a horse, which made her frustrated.
"Hmm..."
"Damn, you're driving me crazy!" Mu Xiaoxiao swayed back and forth on the mule, extremely annoyed.
"Neigh..." The mule called out again, with an almost mocking tone, as if laughing at Mu Xiaoxiao. This really made Mu Xiaoxiao want to spit blood.
The burly man who had kidnapped Mu Xiaoxiao finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing: "The horse didn't let you ride before, and now even the mule doesn't want to let you ride, alas..."
A Beautiful Person Appears
The burly man who had kidnapped Mu Xiaoxiao finally couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing: “The horse didn’t let you ride before, and now even the mule doesn’t want to let you ride, alas…”
"This mule must have been mesmerized by my gorgeous male attire and completely failed to notice I'm a genuine beauty. Otherwise, this little beast would be running after me obediently."
The burly man swept his eyes over her from top to bottom, then pursed his lips and said casually: "Oh, I didn't realize you were actually a beauty."
"No worries, I, Mu Xiaoxiao, have always been magnanimous and absolutely won't take your belated realization to heart."
After several struggles, the mule finally moved under Mu Xiaoxiao's culinary temptation.
Mu Xiaoxiao rode the mule, leisurely looking at the green scenery, feeling particularly happy—Haha, Mu is finally going to venture into the world! Mu Xiaoxiao curled her mouth, gathered qi in her lower abdomen, and launched her new life with an absolutely high-pitched battle cry. This cry, with an absolutely magnificent momentum, burst through the vast air and fiercely attacked all people within a hundred-mile radius!
At the same moment, in a luxurious and comfortable carriage, a face as pure as a lotus after rain, with delicate eyebrows that would make anyone's heart ache, tightly pursed lips with a hint of pale purple, hands gripping the carriage edge, secretly resenting the person who had disturbed his peaceful dream. His thin lips parted: "Investigate."
"Yes!"
"Master, it was a voice from a woman riding a mule behind us. Should we capture her?"
The person in the carriage yawned, half-closing his slightly hazy eyes, radiating a soft light like moonlight.
"No need to make a scene."
Given that mules are hybrid animals, and out of compassion for this new species, Mu Xiaoxiao didn't slap the mule's buttocks throughout the journey, especially after being thrown off once after slapping its rear. Alas, not only horse's rear can't be slapped, mule's rear can't be easily slapped either!
The burly man, seeing Mu Xiaoxiao's sorry state, guessed this was her first time riding, and didn't urge her. The master hadn't instructed to mistreat her. So they traveled very slowly, only reaching the city near noon.
Being a Qualified Subordinate
Entering the crowd, the burly man automatically stepped back, disguising himself as Mu Xiaoxiao’s bodyguard and follower. Previously, the burly man had explained to Mu Xiaoxiao: “From now on, I’m your direct superior and also your servant.”
Mu Xiaoxiao felt a headache: "Geez, this relationship is complicated... So do I listen to you or do you listen to me?"
"When you should listen to me, you listen to me, and when I should listen to you, I naturally will."
"But when exactly should I listen to you, and when should you listen to me? Is it time for you to listen to me now?" Mu Xiaoxiao hoped to confuse him.
Unexpectedly, the burly man was steady, giving Mu Xiaoxiao a look that almost made him jump off the horse, pointing at her head and saying: "You pig-brain, you want to drive me crazy! Since my external identity is your servant, naturally when there are people around, I'll properly play the role of your servant!"
Hehe, the time to be around people had come, and he could finally vent his grievances. Mu Xiaoxiao smiled slyly.
"Black!"
The burly man looked around, not knowing who Mu Xiaoxiao was calling.
"Black!"
Still no response, Mu Xiaoxiao got angry, turning her head to grab the burly man's ear, cursing: "I've called you twice, how dare you not answer..."
"Bang!" Mu Xiaoxiao fell freely with absolute agility...
Damn, playing tricks on me! Mu Xiaoxiao covered her swollen mouth, seeing the burly man's face twitching as he tried to suppress his laughter, with a chilling wind: If I don't take care of you today, I'll be letting down my own style!
The story goes that Mu Xiaoxiao's mission is to disguise as a young master, come to Xiao City, infiltrate the Moon Tower, and act accordingly. Mu Xiaoxiao doesn't yet have a clear concept of this mission and is more interested in this burly, bandit-like follower.
"Black, go to the tailor shop and buy a set of women's clothes to change into."
The burly man stopped laughing...
"What are you standing there for? Aren't my words valid? Looking at how weak I am, you still dare to be this fat, are you trying to tell people that my young master isn't man enough? Go now, Black, you have some nerve!
Burly Man really wanted to rush over, grab Mu Xiaoxiao’s collar, and tell her “I’m Li Desheng”, but he thought this weird girl would probably call him a ruffian. So, he clenched his fists and accepted the nickname “Hei Zi”!
Hey, Handsome 1
Going to the tailor shop to buy women’s clothing, the shop owner kept staring at the burly man with a look of serious suspicion about his personality. He found the largest plus-size women’s outfit that could barely cover his massive body. Watching Hei Zi make a fool of himself completely satisfied Mu Xiaoxiao’s resentment.
Moon Tower, Main Hall.
The noise was at its peak, voices chaotic.
Mu Xiaoxiao sat in the most edge position, devouring food. What could she do? After walking for countless hours, she was starving to death. Between bites, she didn’t forget to look up and remind Hei Zi: “You should eat quickly too. You’re clearly a tough guy, so why be so refined? Fill your stomach first, we have a mission later!”
After they both finished eating, Mu Xiaoxiao finally remembered her mule, calling over Gui Nu and instructing him to take good care of that hybrid species. She casually pulled a silver note from Hei Zi’s pocket as a tip. Hehe, the feeling of spending someone else’s money is so great!
Mu Xiaoxiao leaned back in her chair, gently waving a fan, her feet propped on the table and constantly swaying. A typical young rascal gentleman.
The burly man looked at her and thought this woman was truly unique. He couldn’t understand why his master would use him for such a woman. He was someone trained secretly by the old master for over ten years, considered a trump card.
A subordinate shouldn’t speculate about the master’s actions, so he should focus on completing the mission. The burly man covered his face with his sleeve and said: “Look at the man in the center. Street ruffians are usually crude, but this big man has an extra sense of brutality. You should learn his essence and try to complete the gang leader’s task, to play a qualified man.”
