Dressed as the last nine-tailed fox

Chapter 321 Changing the guide

"Harm them?" Mu Xu's words made Kaitian's face turn uglier in an instant, "Even if Uncle Mu looks down on me and thinks I'm not worthy of being your son-in-law, there's no point in saying such things to scare me, right? ?”

"You don't believe me?" Mu Xu didn't expect Kai Tianhui's attitude and frowned displeased.

"Uncle Mu, although I am not a dragon or phoenix among people, or a little lucky star with the blood of the lucky star god in my blood, I am not stupid either." Kaitian did not answer Mu Xu's question directly, but brought some In a mocking tone, "What's more, I didn't enter Fuxing City by chance. I found it after many twists and turns and a lot of hard work."

"That's all." Mu Xu shook his head regretfully, "I had good intentions to remind you, but I didn't expect that you would seek your own death. In this case, I don't need to say more."

"If it's a dead end, then why is Uncle Mu still sitting here?" Kaitian's original firm tone became hesitant.

"Ha." Mu Xu laughed self-deprecatingly and touched his empty trouser legs, "I have lost my legs, lost my freedom, and can't even step out the door of this house. Is this what you consider a good thing?" Mu Xu said When Xu talked about good things, he increased his volume a bit.

"Miss Zhiyi once mentioned to me about Uncle Mu." Kaitian deliberately provoked Mu Xu. The implication was that the reason why Mu Xu became like this was all due to his own fault and he deserved it.

"My business?" Mu Xu heard the implication of Kaitian's words, and his eyes darkened, "I guess what Zhiyi told you is not only my business, but my and Furou's business, right? Do you think so too? I betrayed Furou, right?"

Kaitian did not answer, only said tactfully: "Uncle Mu is joking, you are the father of Miss Zhiyi, so no matter what Uncle Mu has done, I will only have respect for Uncle Mu in my heart."

"Really?" Mu Xu looked at the man in front of him. Although he didn't answer his question directly, every sentence had a hidden meaning. "Then the way you respect people is really special." Mu Xu's words It also brought a sense of ridicule.

"Compared to Uncle Mu, they are nothing more than each other."

Hearing that Kaitian didn't believe him, Mu Xu didn't intend to explain anything. After all, the matter between him and Furou had been rumored in Fuxing City for too long. There were all kinds of versions, but there was only one point in common among these versions, and that was It was him who betrayed Furou. Mu Xu felt that there was really no difference between one more person misunderstanding him and one less person misunderstanding him.But when he looked into Kaitian's eyes, Mu Xu saw a silky light and clarity from inside. He had also seen this kind of light before coming to Fuxing City, or the light in Kaitian's eyes affected Mu Xu. Xu, Mu Xu said out of nowhere: "Whether you believe it or not, I have never betrayed Fu Rou."

When Mu Xu mentioned the word "betrayal" earlier, he looked indifferent. Kaitian thought that he would not defend himself, so when Mu Xu spoke, Kaitian was stunned for a moment and then said seriously: "Since Uncle Mu has spoken. , then I will believe it.”

"Believe me?" After receiving Kaitian's answer, Mu Xu looked at Kaitian's expression carefully. He had seen too many fake smiles in this Fuxing City. Mu Xu's grasp of emotions had reached a very high level, facing the people of Fuxing City. With a fake smile, Mu Xu could also observe their true emotions.

After realizing that Kaitian's trust in him was not fake, Mu Xu murmured: "You actually believe in me... This is the first time someone has said that they believe in me since I was trapped in this house."

Seeing that Mu Xu's expression was a little relaxed, Kai Tian took the opportunity to ask: "Since Uncle Mu didn't betray Fu Rou in the first place, why was he imprisoned in this house and lost his legs?"

"That's because Furou..." Mu Xu's words stopped abruptly. He glanced at Kaitian and reminded: "It's not good for you to know some things. Don't ask about it in the future. If you know the truth, you can only Trapped in Fuxing City forever."

"While you still don't know anything, you should find an excuse to take your grandmother and your brother out of Fuxing City as soon as possible, otherwise..." Mu Xu smiled bitterly, "I am your future."

"is it?"

"Even now, you still don't want to believe me?" Kaitian's response made Mu Xu's face darken a lot. Mu Xu was originally a handsome young man, but after losing his legs, he was raped in Fuxing City. After being locked up for so many years, his temper has inevitably become a little irritable.Without waiting for Kaitian to answer, Mu Xu continued: "You don't believe me, so I don't have to waste any more time with you. It's not me who needs to offer incense for others during the Qingming Festival next year."

"Uncle Mu, don't worry, you have said so many heartfelt words to me, so of course I believe you, but I believe it, but my grandmother and brother may not believe it."

"What do you mean by that?" Mu Xu frowned, "Do you want me to say these words to your grandmother and brother again?"

Kaitian shook his head, "I will persuade my grandmother and brother, but I still have something to ask for." Kaitian paused, and then spoke under Mu Xu's scrutinizing eyes: "Uncle Mu doesn't want to talk about you. I can understand what you have experienced over the years, but Uncle Mu, can you tell me why you came to Fortune City in the first place and why you stayed, so that I won’t be unable to answer anything when asked by my grandmother and brother.”

"The reason why I came to Fortune City?" Mu Xu slowly lowered his head as he spoke, with grief and guilt constantly intertwined in his eyes.

Mu Xu's sudden silence puzzled Kaitian. Kaitian wanted to wait for Mu Xu to speak on his own, but suddenly felt someone moving in his direction, so he urged: "Uncle Mu came to Fuxing City because he wanted to ask for something. What is it? Is it power or money?"

"What I want to ask for is..."

"Knock, knock, knock." There was a knock on the closed door, interrupting Mu Xu's words, "Father..." Along with the knock on the door, Zhi Yi's voice also sounded.

Mu Xu was about to tell the news he wanted, but was interrupted by Zhiyi. A trace of boredom flashed in Kaitian's eyes, but he quickly suppressed the emotion.

"What are you doing here?" Mu Xu shouted to Zhiyi outside the door, "Didn't I tell you not to follow me?"

"Mother is here."

Hearing this, Mu Xu became a lot more irritable in an instant, and his whole body exuded overwhelming hatred, "What is she doing here?"

Kaitian in the room couldn't help but frown, wondering why Fu Rou would come at this time.

"Mother wants to meet Mr. Tian."

"See me?" Kaitian said in shock.

Seeing Mu Xu's eyes falling on him, Kaitian also realized that his voice was a bit too loud, so he laughed twice at Mu Xu to relieve the embarrassment in his heart.

Kaitian making such a noise is not strange in Mu Xu's eyes. After all, Furou is the city lord of Fuxing City. She took the initiative to see Kaitian, which can be regarded as a condescension from Yu. However, Kaitian's reaction like this is not surprising to Mu Xu. There was a suspicion in his eyes that he was clinging to a dragon and a phoenix, and Mu Xu suddenly regretted what he had just said to Kaitian. "What I just told you, don't mention it to anyone, including Zhiyi." Mu Xu reminded Kaitian in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"As long as Uncle Mu doesn't say anything, I won't say anything." Kaitian replied without missing a beat.

Originally, Mu Xu only felt that Kai Tian was suspected of climbing a dragon and attaching a phoenix to Kai Tian. Now that Kai Tian said this, Mu Xu directly confirmed Kai Tian's idea of ​​climbing a dragon and attaching a phoenix to his heart. Mu Xu knew that if he met Fu Rou, Kai Tian would definitely not be able to do so. After listening to his previous advice and leaving Fuxing City, Mu Xu didn't expect that he had seen the wrong person, but he had already said the words and could not take them back.

"Remember your promise. If you say something that shouldn't be said, even if I can't leave this house, I can still kill you." After finishing the threat, Mu Xu motioned to Kaitian to open the closed door. It seemed that he didn't care at all about Kai Tian's response to his threat.

Kaitian smiled at Mu Xu, stood up, opened the closed door, and walked out.

Zhiyi ignored Kaitian and said eagerly to Mu Xu who was still in the room: "Father, mother has been waiting for a long time."

Hearing this, Mu Xu glanced at Kaitian and said to Zhiyi: "Since you want to see him, just take him there." After saying that, Mu Xu slammed the door with a bang, obviously not I don’t want to see Furou.

Mu Xu's action of smashing the door made Zhiyi stunned, and then he said to Kaitian: "Mr. Tian is laughing."

Kaitian touched Zhiyi's head distressedly and whispered: "Why does Zhiyi call me Mr. Tian now that there are only two of us?"

"Tianlang." Seeing Kaitian's heartache for him, the emotion in Zhiyi's eyes deepened.

"Yi'er, I wonder why City Lord Fu wants to see me?" Kaitian asked in a gentle tone.

When Fu Rou was mentioned, Zhi Yi's face turned ugly in an instant. Speaking of which, this was the first time Kai Tian saw Zhi Yi looking like this. Even with a smile on her face, she could not conceal the uneasiness in her heart. , "Mother didn't say anything, but maybe mother knew that Mr. Tian was coming to visit today and wanted to join in the fun."

Kaitian also wanted to believe what Zhiyi said, but Zhiyi really had no confidence in what he said.

"Really?" Kai Tianchao Zhiyi deliberately showed some nervousness, "Yi'er, I thought I would only see your father, but I didn't expect to see your mother now. To be honest, I'm really scared."

"Tianlang, don't be afraid, I will protect you." Zhiyi's words were more like speaking to herself.

After Zhiyi finished speaking, she took Kaitian's hand and without wasting any more time, led Kaitian toward the front hall where Furou was. Kaitian felt that Zhiyi's hand was extremely cold, as if the person he was going to see later was not Her mother was some kind of ferocious financial wolf, tiger and leopard.

When they reached the corner of the front hall, Zhiyi let go of Kaitian's hand and whispered comfortingly: "Tianlang, if my mother sees us like this, I'm afraid she will be unhappy."

"I understand." Kaitian smiled softly and reassured Zhiyi, "I will definitely please Zhiyi's mother later so that she can marry you to me with confidence."

Zhiyi also smiled at Kaitian, "I believe you can do it." But Zhiyi didn't know that her smile was uglier than crying.

Zhiyi took a deep breath, folded her hands squarely on her chest, and walked towards the front hall. Kaitian was stunned when he saw this. This was the first time he saw Zhiyi looking so dignified and polite. It seems that the relationship between Zhiyi and Furou as mother and daughter is much worse than she thought.

Furou was sitting on a high seat in the front hall at this time, chatting with Hongmeng Ziqi and Yi Changle who were sitting on her right from time to time. Seeing Zhiyi walking towards her, Furou withdrew her gaze and looked towards Looking in the direction behind Zhiyi, after seeing Kaitian's face clearly, Furou sighed in her heart: This man's face is indeed good, no wonder his two daughters fell in love with him at the same time.

"Mother, this is Tiangongzi."

Furou's eyes did not stay on Kaitian's face for too long. When Zhiyi entered the front hall, her steps seemed a little hurried because she didn't want Furou to wait too long. Furou noticed the hurried pace of Zhiyi and was dissatisfied. Said: "Zhiyi, you asked to move out of the city lord's mansion, and you are living like this? How long have you not seen me, and your steps have become so rough and unruly? Tomorrow, I will send a teacher to teach you. , correct your steps.”

Hearing this, Yi Changle and Hongmeng Ziqi were a little surprised. They didn't expect that Furou, as Zhiyi's mother, would be so disrespectful to Zhiyi in front of the three outsiders.

As the person involved, Zhi Yi's expression didn't change much. It was obvious that she was used to her mother's behavior of refuting her face in front of outsiders.

Although Zhiyi doesn't see Furou often, she has always respected and feared her mother, and she obeyed all her orders. But today, Zhiyi mustered up the courage to resist Furou. once.

Zhiyi bit her lip, lowered her head and retorted in a low voice: "But mother, I still have three guests to accompany me, so I'm afraid I won't be able to spare the time to correct my steps, and I don't live in the City Lord's Mansion anymore, so there's no need. It’s time to behave properly.”

"So you invited yourself out of the City Lord's Mansion just so you don't have to pretend to behave in front of me?" Furou chuckled, "Forget it, since you have changed your surname, you are no longer my daughter, so you can't learn these rules anymore. It’s really useless…”

When she heard "No longer my daughter" from Furou, Zhiyi's eyes darkened a lot, and her nails dug into her palms, but Zhiyi endured it and didn't say a word.

"However, you don't need to accompany these three guests."

"What do you mean, mother?" Zhiyi raised her head in disbelief and asked Furou loudly.

Zhiyi's attitude surprised Furou. In his impression, his daughter was always timid and afraid of getting into trouble. This was the first time he heard her speak so loudly. Furou was used to it in high positions, so it was rare for her to do so. It was rare to be questioned like this, and Zhiyi's behavior became a provocation to his authority in Furou's eyes.

Furou was a little unhappy, and her tone became much sharper, "Zhiyi, from now on, you will no longer be the guide for these three guests."
