It was night, and Mu Ge lay on a rocking chair in the courtyard, still thinking about the person she had seen in the forest of Ziyang Academy during the day.

  At this moment, besides You He and Hua Yue, there was one more person by her side.

  He wore a simple blue shirt, straight as a pine tree. His face was quite handsome, with a hint of elegance between his eyebrows. He stood rigidly in front of Mu Ge, silent to the point where one almost forgot he existed.

  "Mo Yang, do you know who lives in the Linzhong of Zi Yang Academy?" Mu Ge suddenly spoke up.

  "Report back to the young master, in the rear mountain forest of Ziyang Academy, it seems that indeed someone is living there. However, Ive only heard that this person is recuperating from an illness in the forest, but dont know who it is."

  Nourish illness?

  Mos eyes slightly changed color.

  The fragrance of herbs in the thatched cottage, and that persons skin without a hint of blood color, fragile as if he would stop breathing at any moment, seems to fit the phrase "nursing an illness" quite well.

  White day, was woken up by the servant of that person, Mu Ge also had some surprise at her own absent-mindedness. And those black and white eyes, almost sucked her soul into them.

  Its not suitable to stay here for long.

  The crisis awareness that has been tempered through countless life-and-death struggles was conveyed to Muge, and she turned around and left without any hesitation.

  From start to finish, she didnt exchange a single word with him.

  And yet, it seemed he didnt stop her from leaving either.

  Two people, like parallel lines with no intersection, brushed past each other.

  Before she returned to Pai Fang, the students in the academy had already left one after another. The Mo Yang they were waiting for was already waiting beside the carriage.

  After glancing at the young man who had been thrown into the academy by himself, Mu Ge got on the carriage and ordered to return to the mansion.

  Went to pick up Mo Yang, but it was just a sudden idea born out of boredom. But unexpectedly, she ran into someone so interesting.

  There are few people who can make her remember, either enemies or friends.

  I dont know - what kind will he be?

  The song fades away, and in her heart, she secretly thinks: Whether well meet again or not is uncertain, so why bother worrying about it now?

  Mo Ge slowly raised her eyes, and the long eyelashes made her emotions in her eyes seem to be hidden and revealed. She looked at Mo Yang and asked: "What did you learn in college?"

  "Sir, you taught us poetry, songs, and Confucian classics. But half a month ago, we started a new archery class, which is quite interesting." As Mo Qings servant, Mo Yang naturally knew his master was not good at literature, so he didnt elaborate on that and instead talked about something that would interest Mo Qing.

  "Riding and shooting? Indeed its interesting." Mu Ges tone was somewhat playful.

  But she didnt say much more. She just said to Mo Yang, "You can also take a few days off. Since youre back at the manor, do whatever you want and dont need to stay by my side. I have Yuhe and Huayue here with me."

  Mo Yang raised his eyes and looked at Mu Ge for a moment, seemingly somewhat surprised. However, he didnt ask anything else and bowed to retreat.

  This sensible appearance actually sparked a few sparks of interest in Muge.

  Absolute trust and obedience are the first criteria for Mu Ge to judge whether a person is useful or not. It seems that this Mo Yang has given her a pretty good first impression.

  Mo Yang walked out of Chi Yun Yuan and headed towards his own residence.

  Since he went to Ziyang College, he moved out of Chi Yunyuan and lived with other young servants in the mansion. Of course, this was Mu Qingges arrangement. Although he didnt understand why his master wanted him to do so, he still obeyed.

  He probably couldnt have imagined that the reason why Mu Qing sang did so in the past was because she didnt want men to live together in her own place.

  "Huh? Isnt this Moyang?"

  As he walked through the garden, Mo Yang heard his own name being called.

  That voice was as gentle as water, and any man who heard it would probably be drowned in it. But Mo Yang only furrowed his brow and turned to face the two masters and servants walking towards him.

  "Moyang has seen Miss Bai." Moyang lowered his eyelids, and what entered his eyes was a white shoe and a white skirt.

  He didnt even lift his head, let alone look at Bai Suoyue.

  "Mo Yang, youre back? But didnt you just go see Mu Gege?" asked Bai Tuyue in a soft voice, with an air of approachability that couldnt be put into words.

  "Yes, Mo Yang has just seen Young Master." Mo Yang replied briefly: "If Miss Bai has no instructions, Mo Yang will take his leave first. A man and a woman alone together may damage Miss Bais reputation." After speaking, he didnt wait for Bai Tuyets reaction and turned to leave with big strides.

  Waiting for him to walk far away, the green branch following Bai Xueyues side let out a light snort and said with a tone of disdain: "Cheap bones. Whats so great about it? Its just a dog by the young masters side. Really thinks that entering Ziyang Academy makes one superior? How disappointing that Miss still looks up to him like this."

  Those words seemed to be speaking up for Bai Suoyue, but in reality, they couldnt hide her inner jealousy towards Mo Yangs good fortune.

  Ziyang Academy, what kind of place is that? If luck is a bit better and can grasp some opportunities, maybe from now on it will be possible to get rid of the slave status and rise to prominence.

  The soft colors in her eyes gradually faded away, slowly being covered by a cold and stern expression.

  Lus words had no effect on her, she just calmly said: "Mo Yang can enter the Zi Yang Academy to study, if we can win him over, maybe we can get more."

  She had learned earlier today that Mo Yang would be back on his rest day, so she had been waiting here early for an opportunity.

  But didnt expect to get smacked in the face.

  However, Bai Suoyue was not discouraged. The more difficult it was to subdue someone, the more interested she became. Only then would they be worthy of her attention!

  ……

  In the Chi Yun Garden, Mu Ge ordered Yu He and Hua Yue to withdraw and rest.

  As she entered the room and was about to start her cultivation, her gaze was drawn to a piece of paper laid flat on the round table.

  Walked over, lowered his eyebrows and took a look.

  Come see me at 3 am

  Mu Ge furrowed his brow, picked up the paper on the table and said in a low voice: "Mu Qing Ge, come out for me."

  As soon as her voice fell, Mu Qings transparent body suddenly appeared in front of her.

  "Youd better explain." Mu Ge waved the paper in her hand back and forth in front of Mu Qings eyes.

  But who would have thought that Mu Qings transparent face turned extremely ugly, with countless fears gathering in his eyes, and even his transparent body began to tremble.

  Mu Ges eyebrows were tightly furrowed as she asked, "Whats wrong with you? Who is this person?"

  "Master...... Master......" Mu Qing Ge almost squeezed out these few words from between her teeth.
