Chapter 167 Uncle Huangfu Comes to Make Trouble
"Since you're all settled here, I'll head back to sleep now. Goodnight!" Mu Zhen was eager to go back and process this joy, not wanting Huangfu Zique's gloomy face to spoil her mood.
Xiao Jukeng stared at the two male protagonists for a few seconds before leaving with Mu Zhen.
Niubi!
In the past, there have been at least eighty to a hundred hosts who have used mind-reading, and although all of those hosts were female, the people whose minds were read were not exclusively female.
This is the first time I've seen people who can read minds work together like this.
However, this means she absolutely cannot let her host know this secret, otherwise...
Given the host's temperament, if he ever finds out that he was once treated like a monkey by a group of people, it will definitely affect everyone's relationship.
The five male leads in this season have such great chemistry. Just now, Mu Yunfei and Huangfu Zique didn't even exchange a glance, yet Huangfu Zique was able to get into character instantly.
She didn't think they had discussed it beforehand, because when Mu Yunfei spoke, she didn't miss the momentary confusion in Huangfu Zique's eyes.
They also knew that they had discovered their existence through the host's inner thoughts.
But it's not a big problem; she can handle this kind of thing. After all, every host who can be mind-read by feedback will expose her.
They simply want to find her and study her. As long as the host doesn't betray her, not only in the mortal realm, but even in the immortal realm, outsiders can't do anything to her.
After the ward door was closed, Mu Yunfei and Huangfu Zique did not exchange any words and both closed their eyes to try to fall asleep.
The next morning, Yao Qianyou went to Liu Si's house to help him load a bunch of food boxes onto his car.
"Dad, you should go back!"
"Good!" Liu's father waved his hand, watching the car drive away with a smile like a Maitreya Buddha. Behind him stood more than a dozen high-class chefs of different races.
He rarely cooks at restaurants anymore, focusing all his energy on the children in the hospital.
Who would have thought that just a few months ago his family was only running a few small restaurants, but now they own three four-star hotels?
No one is more generous than Brother Huangfu; he actually 'forced' three large restaurants upon him.
With her son bringing back some novel recipes, the restaurant attracted countless customers as soon as it opened.
How much is he worth now? Thirty-four billion. It's like a dream.
Although the majority of these funds came from the Huangfu family, Liu's father understood that the real benefactor in his family was that girl named Mu Yunya.
Therefore, his focus remained on that girl.
This girl is talented; she'll rise to prominence sooner or later.
They're both women, so why are his daughters so different...?
In the ward, Mu Zhen picked up a piece of smooth shiitake mushroom with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. Her cooking skills were simply amazing.
It also has a bit of a home-cooked feel to it, without too many unnecessary artificial flavorings and seasonings, making it both delicious and healthy.
"I just watched a good show downstairs."
He appears to be the eldest uncle of the young master Huangfu.
You said they are all people of status,
"But he acted like a scoundrel, causing a huge scene at the hospital entrance." Liu Si sneered as he served food to Mu Zhen.
"They still dare to cause trouble?" Lu Bu was surprised. Wasn't it said that Huangfu Zique was attacked by Huangfu's uncle's family?
Yao Qianyou shrugged: "I'd like to ask Huangfu for forgiveness."
Mu Zhen listened quietly without interrupting. The book did not describe how Huangfu Zique dealt with Huangfu's uncle's family after discovering the traitor.
"When Uncle Huangfu couldn't get in, he was about to call Young Master Huangfu's grandparents on the spot." Liu Si recalled the scene he had just witnessed outside and recounted it with amusement: "So the Huangfu family head gave them two choices."
I guess they didn't want their parents to outlive them.
The head of the Huangfu family was furious, but he had no choice but to back down. One of his demands was that Huangfu's eldest uncle relinquish all his existing power.
Then he went to make a living on a private island owned by the family, and thereafter was no longer under the family's protection.
Secondly, Uncle Huangfu continued to fight against the family, but he didn't care about the lives of either side.
"Heh, how much real power does Uncle Huangfu actually hold? All he has to offer is money and a 500-man crossbow corps."
"So many? Those people are quite formidable. If a fight breaks out, it will be quite troublesome." Lu Bu hadn't forgotten the archers he had encountered that day.
Putting aside their combat prowess, their fearless determination alone is admirable.
Liu Si looked at him with disdain: "Does the Huangfu family lack thugs? Don't forget the relationship between the young master of Huangfu and the young military governor. The military governor's mansion has an army in the suburbs of the capital."
"We could raze them to the ground in the blink of an eye!"
"And then there's the Long family. Although the Long family doesn't have an army in the capital, every man in the Long family is a skilled warrior. I think the God of War could wipe them all out by himself." As she said this, Yao Qianyou's face was full of admiration.
The name Longyuan may not be so well-known in big cities, but in the hearts of people on the margins, it is no less than a god.
Not only is he at the pinnacle of martial arts, but he is also upright and possesses unparalleled strategic acumen.
Last year, the enemy country attempted a feint attack, ostensibly targeting a small town in the north, but actually sending its main force to the Western Mountains.
They want to take this opportunity to reclaim the land they lost fifty years ago.
Originally, the Long family army was preparing to rush to that small town to provide support, but after Long Yuan rushed from the school to the northern border, he immediately saw through the enemy's trick.
Otherwise, Daxi Mountain would have been seized back by the enemy country last year.
Because the land in Da Xi Shan is barren, and few people have lived there even after fifty years of its acquisition, if the enemy were to retake it and insist on defending it at all costs, Dong Guo would probably not fight to the death.
But what can be done? Since it has been designated as territory of the Eastern Kingdom, no matter how barren it is, it is still the land of the Eastern Kingdom, and it is not for others to covet.
These were the words spoken by Longyuan after he defeated the enemy country.
To the disappointment of the people, before the war even started, the emperor actually sent someone to order Longyuan to withdraw its troops, saying that it was not worth fighting for such a piece of wasteland.
Even after the final victory, the emperor still detailed the losses suffered by the Eastern Kingdom in the news, repeatedly stating that the Western Hills were not worth those losses.
That was the first time Yao Qianyou felt disappointed in the emperor. Could this be measured in monetary terms? If the other side really managed to take it back through trickery, what face would the Eastern Kingdom have left in the international arena?
The Long family army is also subject to criticism from others, and can be easily fooled by any trick.
Many people still don't understand why the enemy country wanted to subdue Da Xishan, and there are various speculations.
Yao Qianyou felt that the enemy country wanted to ruin the heroic image of the Long family army in people's minds.
She thought the old emperor was just senile.
She used to say that she wanted to find a partner like the old emperor, someone she could be with for life, and that even after the empress passed away, she never thought about finding a second spring.
Do people really become so afraid of death as they get older?
Mu Zhen glanced at her indifferently and scoffed. What's so admirable about someone who would abandon their beliefs for a woman?
Just wait and see. After three years, when that guy goes from being a national hero to an alcoholic, let's see if she can still like him.
