C21 Invitations

"Miss Mu, are you going out specifically today? Today, I chose to go into business for a long time. If you don't believe me, then there will be a gathering of disciples from famous sects in the capital tomorrow. You can find out if you randomly ask someone. "

When Mu Yizi heard about the gathering, her eyes immediately lit up.

Other than that grand feast at the Prime Minister's estate, she had never formally participated in a gathering of scholars in the capital!

She was still looking forward to this. In the past, when they were at Qing Tong Mountain, they were surrounded by a bunch of tough people. The scholars in Qizhou didn't have much ink in their stomachs, but they had a sense of being proud of their talent.

"Young Master Lu also said that it's a gathering of the disciples of famous sects. I am not from a famous clan, wouldn't I be criticized if I were to go? " Mu Yizi felt extremely thirsty, and directly drank the cup of tea in front of her in one gulp.

Seeing this, Lu Qianyin was actually more at ease. It seemed that she had already let down her guard, which made the rest of the matter much easier.

Miss Mu doesn't need any noble family background. With your identity as a fourth ranked Silvermoon General, who would dare to say anything?" You don't need to be a disciple of a famous sect.

These words made Mu Youzi feel comfortable. Indeed, with her current status, she didn't need to care about the idle chatter of those people. Those who were doing walked away with their heads high, afraid of gossip.

"If Miss Mu is willing to come, then just come tomorrow." Lu Jingyin pulled out a folding fan from somewhere. The rosewood fan was affixed with an ivory tiger head seal. The red tassels swayed and the fan depicted a mountain and river diagram. It was a masterpiece.

To be able to affix a seal onto a fan, it seemed that the owner of the fan also valued the folding fan greatly. After all, if something like a seal were to be taken away by someone, it might not be useful anymore.

Mu Yizi agreed without a doubt, stood up, said goodbye to Lu Haoyin, and walked out the same way they had come.

On the way back to the Mu Clan Residence, Mu Yizi hurriedly ran over to the Compendium Pavilion to look for Shen Bai.

In the vast Book Collection Vault, she had almost found Shen Bai in a group of books. She searched for a few rounds, but to no avail. She could only helplessly call out Shen Bai's name.

Fortunately, Shen Bai was not lost in the sea of knowledge and was able to find his way. As soon as he heard Mu Yizi's call, he immediately responded. However, the pile of books was too high and it took Mu Yizi a long time to find where he was.

"What are you doing?" "Is there nothing left to bury yourself in a book?" Mu Yizi said in disgust as she helped him carry down the book that was in his way.

Shen Bai also gave her a helping hand, opening up a path to 'Book Sea' for her.

After moving it around for a long time, Mu Yizi finally finished. She sat down on the ground and slowly fanned the wind with her hand in place of her fan.

"Why are you looking for me?" Shen Bai sat on the floor, holding the book as his eyes never left it. His white robes fluttered behind him. Even if he was sitting on the floor, it would not be able to hide the immortal aura that surrounded him.

Mu Yizi wiped away the sweat on her forehead, "Tomorrow, come with me to participate in a poetry meet. I'll send someone to buy some clothes according to your size and bring them over. "

Shen Bai put down the book in his hands, looking at her with a bit of frustration and said, "It's better if I accompany other ladies in something like this!" He then continued to look at the book in his hands and stopped talking.

Only then did Mu Yizi remember that she had just rejected the idea of cooking for him for the rest of her life. Now, she was even asking him to accompany her to the poetry meet? It would be weird if he agreed.

"Cough cough, as a man, why are you so petty?" Mu Yizi felt a little awkward, but she had already said it out loud, so she couldn't take it back anymore. He should first think of a way for him to agree to participate in the poetry meet with him.

Shen Bai only lifted his eyelids, glanced at her, and snorted. He did not reply.

This time, Mu Yizi felt even more embarrassed. In order to get him to agree, she could only brace herself and continue coaxing him.

She was the grand chief of the Qingfeng Stronghold, now that she was the current general Silvermoon, why did she have to be so helpless in front of a scholar?

"Tell me, how will you participate in the poetry meet with me?"

Since he couldn't think of any other way, Mu Yiran clenched her teeth and asked with her eyes closed. Towards Shen Bai's arrogant and pampered character, she really didn't know how to respond. Since she did not have much patience, she could only let Shen Bai state his conditions as he pleased.

As if he was moved by her words, Shen Bai put his hands on his knees and stared at Mu Yizi, who was waiting for his reply.

She stared at him for a long time without speaking, which made her even more puzzled.

Did she agree or not? How many voices did she make? How bad was it to keep looking at her?

When Mu Yizi could no longer hold it in, Shen Bai shifted his gaze away and said faintly, "Then do you still want to eat the food I make?"

It was unknown if she had misheard, but within Shen Bai's words, there was always the grudge of a daughter-in-law.

"Alright, alright, alright, I'll eat, I'll eat! I'll eat as much as you want me to, okay? " Mu Yizi raised her hands in surrender, her face filled with helplessness. However, there was a hint of joy in his heart. In any case, he agreed to eat, and didn't say that he would marry him. Even if he wanted to eat, he would eat even if he was a neighbor!

As if he had seen through Mu Yizi's thoughts, Shen Bai suddenly said, "You don't have to be too proud of yourself. Don't forget when you were at the hot spring …" "Ugh!"

Before Shen Bai could finish his sentence, Mu Yizi had already rushed over and covered his mouth.

It was unknown whether it was done on purpose or not, but Shen Bai simply laid down, causing Mu Yizi to fall onto his body.

When Mu Yizi finally reacted, she was already lying on top of him.

This posture gave off an inexplicable feeling of affectation, causing Mu Yizi to blush. She tried to stand up, but a warm palm at her waist tightened around her, forcing her to move closer to the hot body.

"You … What are you doing? " Mu Yizi bashfully twisted her body, wanting to struggle free from that hand, but she discovered that she was completely powerless at the moment.

"I thought that General Mu had suddenly realized something and wanted to throw himself into my arms. "I'm ready to accept your promises with my life …" Shen Bai held onto Mu Youzi's waist, thinking: Isn't this girl a little too skinny? Her waist is as thin as a willow branch. He didn't even dare to use too much strength, afraid that he would accidentally break her waist.

"Pfft, why didn't you repay me with your body? "Shameless!" Mu Yizi did not dare to meet his gaze, and could only lower her head to look at the nearby book, feeling extremely confused.
