Chapter 1001: Chapter 774: Sowing Seeds, Waiting for Flowers to Bloom
Mu Fan’s voice was calm, but at this moment, on this quiet and empty Observation Platform, it sounded like a thunderclap.
The man across pulled back his arm, his gaze sweeping over the gradually recovering indentation on his arm.
“Not bad at all.”
Daisendari stared at Mu Fan, snorted coldly, and said no more.
Since he had set this condition, saying anything else after the other party fulfilled it was not manly.
Seeing Mu Fan make the Babon Grey Wolf quietly acknowledge him, Princess Yue Xi’s eyes grew even brighter, and she giggled, “Daisendari, you’re actually praising someone, it’s the first time I’ve seen that.”
The majestic man had a somewhat darkened face; his own princess was laughing at him at this moment, so he simply closed his eyes and ignored it.
“Mu Fan, you’re really amazing! I’ve never seen anyone receive Daisendari’s praise. Don’t mind what he said earlier, he’s a good person, mostly cold on the surface but warm inside.”
Princess Yue Xi explained for her guard, making the brawny man’s face turn even darker.
Mu Fan nodded to show understanding, then sincerely asked, “Does this mean I’ve passed now?”
“Of course.”
Princess Yue Xi laughed happily. After so many days out, finally encountering something interesting made her inexplicably joyful.
“But, you need to escort me back to the Babon Duchy, and then I will arrange a cruise for you to return to Ding Chuan. This might delay you for more than half a week.” Princess Yue Xi emphasized again, indicating that this wasn’t some kind of free ride but a “transaction.”
“Alright.” Mu Fan nodded then thought for a moment, looking at her somewhat embarrassed yet expectant, “…I also have two companions, they’re my classmates.”
“No!” At this time, the previously silent Daisendari directly interrupted.
“There are only five slots. Princess Yue Xi, me, and two maids, now including you. Do you want to overstep your bounds?”
“Wait.” Princess Yue Xi gestured for the burly man not to speak and seriously asked, “Do they have to participate? But I’m not familiar with them.”
“I don’t know what price that item will fetch… My money might not be enough, they’re here to help me.”
Talking to this point, Mu Fan was indeed a bit embarrassed, feeling he might be pushing too far.
But, as long as there’s still a glimmer of hope, one must try.
“Hah~ So you’re still a poor kid. What are you doing here without money? Other than having considerable strength, your courage isn’t too bad either.” Daisendari said mockingly.
He really didn’t understand why the princess favored this poor kid, giving him a slot was already a huge honor, yet he still shamelessly asked for more.
Hearing the conversation, Mu Fan bowed slightly, “Thank you for your help, my request was presumptuous, I’ll think of another way.”
“No need.”
Princess Yue Xi’s voice was clear and decisive.
The girl looked at Mu Fan, showing a pure and charming smile, her pointed ears unintentionally revealing again.
“Just let Yun’er and Yun wait at the hotel, as for my safety, with Daisendari, what are you worried about?” The future Duchess secretly praised her loyal guard.
Daisendari’s expression was still dissatisfied, but it softened a lot, his deep voice spoke: “Everything as the Princess arranges.”
After saying that, the girl gently turned around, her pure eyes blinking gently.
“Is that good now?”
“Remembered.” Mu Fan placed a hand on his chest and bowed.
“Alright then, meet at the entrance of New Moon Square at 8:30 tomorrow morning.”
Her soft, unblemished hand waved gently, as she turned and left. Seeing the blooming flowers around, one could tell Princess Yue Xi’s mood was genuinely cheerful.
As Mu Fan stood on the Observation Platform gazing at the distant sky with a silly smile, Daisendari had already escorted Princess Yue Xi to the Presidential Suite’s door.
“Princess… this subordinate doesn’t understand.” As Princess Yue Xi was about to step inside, the burly man lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.
Hearing this, Princess Yue Xi paused, pulled back, quietly observing her loyal head guard, her lips opened slightly, her voice like the sound of a spring, ethereal yet lingering.
“A student who can repel you would be outstanding in any academy, and his gaze is very clean. When my father was alive, he taught Yue Xi that on the journey, sow seeds, and one day they will blossom into trees.”
Princess Yue Xi didn’t say anything more, but the straightforward man already understood the princess’s intention.
He lowered his head respectfully, “Princess Yue Xi’s wisdom illuminates all darkness, a blessing for Babon.”
The girl’s big clear eyes squinted, she covered her mouth and laughed lightly: “It’s always interesting to hear your compliments.”
“Good night, Daisendari.”
“Sweet dreams, Your Majesty.”
…
At eight in the morning the next day, the chubby one was so surprised he didn’t even finish breakfast.
The three of them stood like posts in New Moon Square.
And White Hair muttered with a doubtful face, “Is this the method you mentioned?”
Early in the morning, he and Harry went to find Mu Fan, and Mu Fan, looking like a soothsayer, told them to be patient.
That mysterious look made people immediately think that Mu Fan might have found a solution.
Then Mu Fan nodded with a smile.
So, the three of them appeared here nonchalantly.
“Who is it after all?” On this empty square, people kept walking out from the parking lot, but Mu Fan’s gaze didn’t waver at all.
White Hair and Chubby were staring at one person after another, but they didn’t find anything special.
“An acquaintance I just met yesterday, from the Babon Duchy, her name is Yue Xi.”
“A girl?” the chubby one grasped the key point.
“Yes.”
“Wow, we were together the whole time yesterday, where did you meet a girl?” The chubby and White Hair immediately got worked up.
So Mu Fan quickly recounted last night’s events, making the two of them click their tongues.
In the end, they summed it up in one sentence: …How does this even happen?
“Well, haven’t you found a backer yet?”
Just as the three were conversing, an odd accent echoed by their ears.
And when the three turned around, they happened to see Half-blood Kim with a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.
“If you really need it, I can sell you my slot, after all, we’re quite civilized.”
“No need.” Suddenly Mu Fan looked at the two figures appearing in the distance and smiled lightly.
“Oh?”
Kim raised an eyebrow, his pale face, devoid of blood, followed Mu Fan’s line of sight.
He happened to see a blonde girl with an alluring figure, fair skin, and a captivating gaze as she walked with graceful steps.
Every movement and smile, every pause and stillness, exuded noble aura.
And her pure, flawless eyes left a memorable impression.
To the left rear of the girl, a burly man nearly two meters tall followed with steady, powerful steps.
The girl’s goose-yellow long dress, decorated with tiny white flowers in her hair, and the burly man’s weathered grey wolf fur coat, undoubtedly became the focus of everyone.
Regardless of age, all who glimpsed Yue Xi’s profile were captivated by her pure, immaculate eyes.
Then a thought emerged from their hearts.
[Which aristocratic family does this Heavenly Pride Girl belong to?]
As Yue Xi’s gaze scanned around lightly, it happened to meet Mu Fan’s eyes, and she sweetly smiled.
She stretched out her fair hand and waved at Mu Fan.
