"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.”
