After listening to Xia Kejuns account, Muyang was also heartbroken. The whole land of China, where else is a happy place? Everywhere is such a tragic human drama of family destruction and death. Seeing Xia Kejun crying nonstop, Muyang took out a pack of tissues and handed them over.

  "But, Miss Ke, its all in the past now. Dont grieve too much. Youre still young and have a bright future ahead of you." Murong Yang consoled softly.

  Xia Kejun took over the paper towel handed over by Muyang and looked at it for a long time without knowing what to do, then raised his head to look at Muyang.

  "Ah, Ill get it for you." After saying that, Mu Yang took the tissue paper, opened it, and pulled out two sheets to hand over to Xia Kejun.

  Xia Kejun continued: "Mu Ge, I know you are a capable person. I only ask that you help me avenge my great hatred and kill Yu Pinqing."

  She paused here, a hint of determination and a touch of shyness on her face, and said in a low voice: "If Brother Mu helps me take revenge, I am willing to marry him."

  Xia Kejuns voice was not loud, but to Mu Yangs ears, it was as clear and loud as a bugle call. To devote oneself to this kind of thing that only appears in plays, and yet he actually encountered such a pure, beautiful, delicate and charming Republican-era female student, it was simply enough to make one want to kill the entire Yu family on the spot.

  Muyang made an effort to swallow a mouthful of saliva and said, "Ke Juniang, actually you dont have to do this, Ive helped you avenge your enemy, as for the matter of offering yourself to me, we can discuss it, cough, discuss it."

  Muyang originally wanted to make up his mind and directly refuse, but in the end he still left himself a way out, hesitating, what does it mean to hesitate.

  Dont despise Xiaoyang, hes just a common man without heroic spirit. Hes only doing what ordinary people do, and every man understands that. Being a saint is too tiring, Xiaoyang thinks its impossible for him, so lets just be an ordinary person instead.

  At this moment, Xia Kejuns expression became serious and solemnly said: "I made a vow in front of my parents graves. As long as someone helps me avenge my hatred, no matter if the other person is old or disabled, I will marry him with my body or serve him for life without complaint."

  Revenge has become Xiaokejuns creed, and her life may be lived for this purpose. Muyang can understand Xiaokejuns thoughts because he also had times when he would do anything for his beliefs. Muyang nodded silently, not saying a word.

  The two of them sat quietly for a while, both feeling somewhat awkward. Mu Yang spoke up: "Since weve already decided, lets set off to Zhangjiakou tomorrow. What do you think?"

  "Uh-huh, okay, but Id like to go say goodbye to Wu Lan first and have her tell the school for me. I might not be coming back." Xia Kejun said.

  "Tomorrow we leave Tianjin, is there anything you need to prepare? Do you need to bring your things back?" asked Mu Yang.

  "All our money is on us, and there are some spare clothes at school, but now the school is closed off and we cant get in," Xia Kejun said.

  "Hey, if theres nothing you must take, dont bother taking it. We can ask Wu Lan to bring it back later. If were missing anything, we can buy it on the way."

  "Ill listen to Brother Mu." Xia Kejun nodded and said.

  "Ill send you back now and pick you up again tomorrow," said Mu Yang.

  Xia Kejun glanced at Mu Yang, and the two walked back to the tailors shop. After Mu Yang left, Wu Tailor and his family went out again to see him off, and on this day, they were sent off twice.

  At night, in Wu Lans bedroom,

  "My goodness, you really want to go with Mu Ge, how is this possible? Have you really fallen for him?" Wu Lan exclaimed in disbelief.

  Xia Kejun covered Wu Lans mouth and pulled her back into the quilt, whispering: "Keep your voice down, dont disturb Uncle and Aunt."

  Wulan pushed away Xia Kejuns hand and said in a low voice: "Then hurry up and tell me, whats going on."

  "I and Mu Big Brother can be considered as love at first sight, this afternoon we went out to chat a lot, feel very kindred spirit, so I decided to follow him, live my own life." Xia Kejun said calmly. This is also the excuse that Xia Kejun and Mu Yang two people discussed and agreed on.

  "My goodness, Ke Jun, this is really unlike you. Youre not an impulsive person, but such a major decision that affects ones lifelong happiness was made so hastily." Wu Lan stared in shock.

  "Sometimes being impulsive isnt necessarily a bad thing, we appreciate each other, were of similar age, and Shus family background is pretty good too. As for me, Im supposed to find a husband to marry into his family anyway, so why not grab the chance now? Should I wait until its too late and regret it?" Xia Kejun said.

  Wulan covered her face and murmured, "Im a bit confused now, I dont know what to say to you, nor do I know if I should stop you. Brother Mu is definitely a good person, I believe you two will be happy together, its just...its all too sudden."

  Xia Kejun smiled and hugged Wu Lan, saying: "Alright, this is my life, my choice, you dont need to worry about it anymore. However, as a good sister, I hope to get your blessing."

  Wulan leaned her head on Xiaokejuns shoulder and said, "Kejun, I sincerely wish you all the best. I hope that in your lifetime, you will be happy, joyful, and healthy. I dont know if well have another chance to meet again after this goodbye. Kejun, will you always remember me?"

  At this point, Wu Lans eyes welled up with tears and she tightly hugged Xia Kejun.

  Xia Kejun also shed tears, she and Wu Lan were extremely close at Nankai Girls Middle School, the two could be described as being like sisters. Xia Kejun had no relatives in Tianjin, every holiday was spent with Wu Lans family, now suddenly having to leave, Xia Kejun was also very reluctant to part ways.

  "I will, we are good sisters, the best of sisters. When I return to Tianjin, Ill definitely come visit you." After that, she hugged Wu Lan tightly as well.

  After sending Xia Kejun back to the hotel, Muyang considered the situation for a while. The system task was to kill a Japanese general and retrieve the antique.

  The Japanese general can find an opportunity at any time, and the task of retrieving the antique is a bit tricky. However, Mu Yang thinks that he should help Xia Kejun avenge first, and then go to complete the task of retrieving the antique. If it cannot be retrieved within Chinas borders, he will chase it to Japan, and he does not believe that things can disappear as long as they exist, there is always a possibility of retrieval.

  Of course, Mu Yang made this decision, if it werent for the "with body as pledge" condition being a temptation, I estimate he wouldnt have been so resolute. As they say, men are animals that think with their lower half.

  Just like a company says theres triple pay for overtime, if it werent for the reward, how many people would be willing to work overtime? So, the temptation of rewards is still quite great.

  However, Muyang still planned to return to the main timeline first, because with one more person, expenses would inevitably increase, and he needed to prepare some money in advance. He planned to go back and open the large safe he had obtained from Sekine Kojuro, estimating that there would be a lot of good stuff inside.

  A thought, Mu Yang crossed back into his own home.
