Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

"Miss, long time no see."

Xiao Ruge invited Bai Zhi into the yard, and they sat together at the table in the middle of the yard. They had indeed not seen each other for a long time.

Xiao Ruge smiled and poured Bai Zhi a cup of tea.

"Yes, if you hadn't come to see me today, I would have thought you had left Kyoto."

Bai Zhi smiled and waved her hand.

"Don't worry, Miss. Bai Zhi will definitely tell you when she leaves."

"That's great. We can even give you a farewell banquet. By the way, is there something that has you rushing here today?"

After Xiao Ruge said this, Bai Zhi suddenly remembered why she came to Xiao Ruge's place.

"By the way, young lady, the young master of the Zhu family came to our residence early this morning to look for you."

The young master of the Zhu family that Bai Zhi mentioned was actually a memory from a long time ago. Ever since something happened to the Zhu family, Zhu Chengxi disappeared for a long time. It was said that his parents disappeared overnight and he had to lock himself up at home to take control of the family business and support the entire Zhu family.

The residence that Bai Zhi mentioned was the one they found after leaving the Xiao family. Bai Zhi still lives there until now, so it is not surprising that Zhu Chengxi would find that place.

It was probably because Zhu Chengxi had been in seclusion for too long and had no idea what was happening outside, especially with Xiao Ruge, so he found her former residence.

"Did he say what happened?"

Bai Zhi recalled briefly that after Zhu Chengxi knocked on the door, he was still as talkative as before, saying a lot of things, roughly meaning that he only wanted to see Xiao Ruge.

Bai Zhi didn't ask what the specific matter was, and Zhu Chengxi didn't say anything either.

"Master Zhu didn't say anything, but he looked quite anxious."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruge nodded and began to think silently in his mind.

Although the head of the Zhu family has passed away, the old lady is still alive. Besides, the Zhu family is large and powerful, so it is not easy for them to have problems. At most, they were a little confused and panicked at that moment.

Zhu Chengxi, who was once a famous playboy in Kyoto, also began to get on the right track at this time. Now that he had come out and was no longer "secluded", he must have learned something and was recognized by Madam Zhu.

If they could include the big shot of the Zhu family among their allies now, their chances of winning would surely increase. However, they had clearly rejected Zhu Chengxi so many times, and they didn't know whether he was willing to take the risk and join them.

Xiao Ruge, who already had an idea in his mind, regained clarity in his eyes and then spoke to Bai Zhi.

"Bai Zhi, if Master Zhu comes to our place tomorrow, please tell him to meet at Linglong Pavilion at noon tomorrow."

As soon as Xiao Ruge finished speaking, she felt someone beside her pulling at her clothes. Xiao Ruge turned her head curiously and saw Mu Gu with a somewhat dissatisfied expression on his face.

Obviously, Mu Gu was not happy about him meeting Zhu Chengxi.

Bai Zhi has always been good at observing people's expressions. She knew the relationship between the two and could see that Mu Gu was unhappy, so she asked hesitantly.

"Miss, are you still going to tell Master Zhu about this news?"

"pass."

"Can't spread it!"

Two voices sounded at the same time, which made Bai Zhi not know who to look at for a moment.

"Bai Zhi was calling me, why are you responding nonsense?"

Xiao Ruge looked helplessly at this man who was becoming more and more childish, and then smiled apologetically at Bai Zhi for embarrassing her.

"Bai Zhi, listen to me. Just tell Master Zhu that I have something important to discuss with him."

Bai Zhi responded after some hesitation, and then she saw Mu Gu's slightly resentful look.

"It's almost noon, how about Baizhi staying here and having a meal together?"

Bai Zhi looked at Xiao Ruge who was full of anticipation, then looked at Mu Gu who was staring at her. After hesitating, she decided that "saving her life" was the most important thing, so she waved to Xiao Ruge.

"No, Miss, I have already arranged for the chef from Linglong Pavilion to come to my house at noon today to teach me how to cook, so I won't disturb you and the prince."

After saying that, Bai Zhi immediately stood up and turned to leave the yard.

Xiao Ruge was still thinking about how to convince Zhu Chengxi and how to get him to join their group. After thinking for a long time, he still felt that it would be better to discuss this matter in person.

So Xiao Ruge stood up, looked up and saw the brand new sword lying on the steps, and sighed softly.

I just don't know when I can wield this sword again, and when I can pick up my Fengming, which is now covered in dust, again.

You still have to spend time practicing.

Thinking of this, Lin Zao walked forward to try to swing the sword, but just as she took a step forward, Mu Gu grabbed her hand.

Xiao Ruge turned her head in confusion, but the man just looked at her without saying a word, with a questioning look in his eyes, as if Xiao Ruge had done something wrong behind Mu Gu's back.

Xiao Ruge spoke impatiently.

"Just tell me what you want to say. Why are you dragging me here without telling me what you want to do? Are you bored?"

After Xiao Ruge finished speaking, Mu Gu just looked at her without saying anything or making any other movements. Xiao Ruge really couldn't stand it anymore and was about to shake off this guy's hand.

Then, just when she had raised her hand, Mu Gu finally spoke.

"Xiao Yu'er, why do you want to meet that Zhu Chengxi?"

Xiao Ruge was stunned for a moment, then found it a little amusing. After all this time, it turned out that Mu Gu had an ugly face because of this matter, but he was much more childish than before. Is this the same Mu Gu who was "decisive and ruthless, and would do anything to achieve his goal" in doing anything?

Xiao Ruge looked at Mu Gu with some amusement.

"You don't trust me that much?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Gu quickly loosened one hand and waved it, but he still held the other hand tightly, as if he was afraid that Xiao Ruge would run away. Mu Gu's handsome face showed a slightly exaggerated expression, which seemed a bit aggrieved.

"How could I not trust Xiao Yu'er? I'm just worried that that piece of shit Zhu Chengxi is still harboring evil intentions towards you."

"After all, Xiaoyu'er is so pretty. I can't let the wild boar next to me take away your delicate little cabbage. Zhu Chengxi is a useless piece of mud. He only knows how to talk. Don't let him deceive you."

Xiao Ruge shook her head helplessly. When did the serious Mu Gu become like this? She felt a little headache, but still started to explain.

"What are you thinking about? I'm here to talk to him about serious matters."
