Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "It seems like you all think like this. I thought you really liked me as a person, but now it seems like you want to use me forever, not really appreciate me!"
Ba Yanzhuan said after hearing this, "Are you saying that your brain has water in it? What are you appreciating about me? Because you have abilities and skills, everyone appreciates you. Is there anyone who appreciates the beggar on the street? You are too low in EQ, everything you say turns into a problem. Everyone appreciates you because of your excellence, not because they appreciate who you are. I really don't know how your brain works! It's useless to talk to you anymore. Just wait for your wedding day! I'm leaving, so don't bother to send me off!"
Bai Yanzhuang finished and turned to leave.
Mo Wenjie looked at the departing Bai Yanzhuang, "What's going on here? None of this is discussed with me. It's all orders from you. What kind of situation is this?" He couldn't understand it at all. "Am I really like they say, with low EQ?" What exactly is EQ, and why don't I know that? Who can tell me what EQ is?"
After hearing this, Mei Lan Zhu Ju all shook their heads, "Young master, you don't have to think like this. Just think about it, we won't be at a disadvantage. They want to marry you, and you're not forcing them. What are you ashamed of?"
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "You don't understand, dealing with women is troublesome. I need to work hard to refine my own powers and improve my strength. I don't have time for all this sweetheart stuff!"
After hearing this, Mei Lan Zhu Ju all laughed uncontrollably, "Young master, why does improving your strength contradict with your marriage? Don't you think having a partner is a burden?" Don't worry, we've heard that double cultivation can produce better results. Have you heard about it? How can you not know about double cultivation if you did not have a partner in the mortal realm?"
Mo Wenjie rubbed his forehead upon hearing this, "You four haven't even been married yet, how can you say such things? Don't you feel embarrassed?"
Mo Wenjie heard this and covered his forehead, "You four are not married yet. How can you say such things? Don't you feel embarrassed?" Mei Lan Zhu Ju looked at Mo Wenjie after hearing this, "Young master, here in the heavenly realm, it's more open than in the mortal realm. There's nothing we can't talk about. We're all adults, so what's the problem with talking? Even if someone wants to double cultivate, they still need to agree. It's not easy to achieve that because we're all cultivators and have some power and background. Just take you for example. She wants to be your partner because of your own strength and because you're a pill refiner. Your big brother is the leader of YunDu City, who is one of the most powerful people in YunDu City! Who dares to offend you? Besides City Master Zhang Tianshi, Liu Security Guard, Huang Aide and Qian General all have heavenly positions in YunDu City. Who wouldn't want to flatter you with your big brother as your protector?"
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "It's true that my brother is the leader, but what does that have to do with me? He's him and I'm me; there's no connection at all. He's the leader of YunDu City, and I'm just a pill refiner. Our friendship is simply because we're both passionate people who appreciate each other. It has nothing to do with whether he's a leader. Please don't overthink it, okay!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "Big brother is a leader, but what does that have to do with me? He is him and I am me. There's no relationship between us. He's the leader of YunDu City, and I'm just a pill refiner. We are both kind-hearted people who admire each other, and that's why we're together. This has nothing to do with whether he's the leader or not. You guys can stop thinking in such a way, right?"
Jue continued, "Young master, you know, my cousin heard that you became the sworn brother of the leader and she's so regretful. She would have left you if she had known this would happen. She's remorseful to the point of being sick in her intestines. How could she have thought that not only did you escape danger, but you also became the sworn brother of the leader? That's something she doesn't have the fortune to enjoy. She's even envious of me now. When she heard that you gave us a batch of youth-preserving pills to eat, she didn't find it strange at all. She says you're just like that; whenever you're with someone, you don't care about anything and always share your labor with others!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "That's not a big deal after all. We're all together, so we should share whatever we have!" He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Mei Lan Zhu Ju all looked at Mo Wenjie after hearing this, "Young master, you don't think it's a problem, but others will. Many people will think that you have a hidden agenda. In the future, you'd better not be so generous because not everyone is like young master. It's also normal for others to misunderstand you!"
Mo Wenjie looked at the four of them after hearing this, "When I gave you all the youth-preserving pills, didn't you think I had some ulterior motive? You all ate them without hesitation. Do you not fear at all?"
Mo Wenjie looked at them after hearing this, "When I gave you the youth-preserving pills, did you think I had ulterior motives?" "You ate them without hesitation. Are you not afraid?" Mei Lan Zhu Ju all laughed uncontrollably after hearing this, "Young master, do you know that you're very handsome and are the prince charming in girls' hearts? What are we? We're your maidservants. Even if you want to do anything to us, first we are willing to do it, secondly we have no choice. You're our master. When we entered the Mo Manor, we all signed a contract. Unless Master dismisses us, I can't leave Master for the rest of my life! Furthermore, we don't want to leave either. In the future, even if someone wants to bully our families, as long as they know that we are serving as maidservants in the sworn brother's house of the leader and know Master's identity. They will have to think twice!"
Mo Wenjie looked at them in disbelief after hearing this, "Is that really so powerful?"
Mei smiled and nodded, "Young master, maybe it's not much to you, but in the eyes of others, it's a different story. Who knows how many people want to court the leader, but can't find a way in? If they knew that you are the sworn brother of the leader, our doorstep would be replaced many times over."
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "It's not as exaggerated as you say. My friendship with the leader is based on mutual appreciation. I didn't become his sworn brother because he is the leader, but because I appreciate him."
Lan looked at Mo Wenjie and shook her head, "Young master, we are very clear about what kind of person you are, but do others know? Can you control what others think or say? We can only control ourselves. We can't control what others think or how they speak. We think young master should understand more about social customs and human nature to avoid getting into trouble in the future!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head after hearing this, "I'm just like that. I've always been lazy and don't care too much about what others think of me. As long as I work hard to improve my strength, I haven't really thought about how others might perceive me!"
Mei Lan Zhu Ju all shook their heads after hearing this, "Young master is beyond treatment. Whatever we say, he will continue to do what he did. He doesn't listen to a word. It's a waste of our breath talking to him. This young master is stubborn and unyielding. What should he do in the future? This is not good for him at all! We really can't do anything about it!"
Mo Wenjie looked at the four of them and said, "Don't complain here anymore. Go about your business. After all, I am just like this. The saying goes, 'The mountains and rivers may change, but a person's nature is hard to shift.' I think this is how it will be for me the rest of my life. There's no changing me!"
Qu Honghai suddenly appeared at Mo Wenjie's home.
Mo Wenjie looked at Qu Honghai, "Qu elder brother, are you here today for the matter of my sister-in-law? Brother, I'm not being too sentimental. Three sisters-in-law have introduced their relatives to me as potential wives. I wanted to refuse this idea from the start, but they didn't give me a chance to say no. Now I'm still worried about it. Elder brother, your visit is perfectly timed to help me get out of this situation!"
Qu Honghai shook his head after hearing this, "Brother, you're not just unable to turn it down; you need to agree to marry them as soon as possible. The sooner the better, ideally by this afternoon. We can hold the engagement banquet tonight. I and my elder brother will take care of the arrangements. And we'll send out engagement banquet invitations to all three families. By tonight, everyone in YunDu City will know your status, and it will be impossible for anyone to harm you!"
Mo Wenjie looked at Qu Honghai, "Brother, what do you mean by doing this? I just can't understand it. What has happened that you need me to do this? Why do you have to make me do this?"
Qu Honghai shook his head after hearing this, "Brother, it's not that I want you to do this. It's my elder brother who wants you to do it. I'm here just to let you know, and other things will be handled by my elder brother."
Mo Wenjie looked at Qu Honghai, "Elder Brother Qu, can you tell me why this is happening? I'm doing fine. Why all of a sudden do I have to get engaged? And why the big deal with the engagement banquet? I really don't understand what the purpose of all this is?"
Qu Honghai shook his head after hearing this, "Brother, do you know a girl named Qin Feifei?"
Mo Wenjie nodded after hearing this, "I know her. But we were separated in the secret realm, right? Her cousin is Jue. What's wrong with her? I just can't understand how my engagement is related to anything she might be going through?"
Qu Honghai shook his head after hearing this, "I said, Wenjie brother, how can you be so foolish! Whether you get married or not really has nothing to do with her. But you don't know that she has reported you to the leader's mansion, saying you have an undeniable connection to the murder of Zhang Taishan. Upon hearing this, the leader quickly had her confined and ordered you and the three families to get engaged immediately. By tomorrow, when everyone in YunDu City knows about it, even if someone else finds out and reports it to the city master's mansion, everyone will be convinced that she said that just to defame you. Even the city master would think twice before challenging the word of the three big families in YunDu City!"
