Chapter 2387 Explain

Ming Shu's voice suddenly trailed off.

Yan Ge froze on the spot.

Mu Hongyu rubbed her wrist. "Hiss… Why did I fail again this time—"

Suddenly, she widened her eyes and looked at Yan Ge in a daze.

They stared at each other, and the surroundings fell into a deadly silence.

Yan Ge's entire body was numb, and his mind was blank. Mu Hongyu! Why is she here?

Mu Hongyu was also taken aback as she harshly rubbed her eyes—he was still here!

"Second Master Yan? Why are you here?!" asked Mu Hongyu in disbelief.

Yan Ge's brain started to churn for his life. Why am I here? Why am I here!?

Just as he was thinking, Mu Hongyu quickly stood up and rushed over instantly. She pulled his face with the table in between them.

"It's really true!" She gasped in shock.

Yan Ge was speechless.

Ming Shu: ?

Yan Ge tried his best to stay calm and moved Mu Hongyu's face away. "Miss Mu, you've recognized the wrong person, right?"

"How did you know my last name is Mu?"

"…"

Yan Ge felt extreme regret and wanted to slap himself. I make more mistakes when I'm hasty!

"…I've previously heard of you. We gave you the Great Advanced Realm technique, right?" Yan Ge tried his best to make himself seem stern as he stood up, planning to leave.

Mu Hongyu's gaze flickered as she loudly said, "Second Boss Yan, I haven't seen you in a few years, and you seem to have become rounder."

Yan Ge instantly turned around in anger. "Nonsense!"

Mu Hongyu spread her hands. "You've admitted to it?"

Yan Ge's glabella twitched. I'm careless! Careless!

Mu Hongyu looked at him in delight.

At this point, how could he still deny it?

Yan Ge took a deep breath in. "…Follow me up."

Then, he gave Ming Shu a look.

Ming Shu immediately understood and checked the entire shop in detail. After ensuring that nobody was around, he lightly nodded.

Mu Hongyu looked at Yan Ge, then at Ming Shu, and instantly realized something. "Second Boss Yan, you're—"

He is part of Zhen Bao Pavilion, and it seems like… his status is even higher than Master Ming Shu!

"This Zhen Bao Pavilion is yours?!" At this moment, Mu Hongyu understood many things. No wonder, no wonder! Isn't this place called Zhen Bao Pavilion as well?

"Missy, please be quieter! I'm not deaf yet!" Yan Ge begged for mercy. Originally, I just wanted to come down to take a breather. Who knew I would bump into Mu Hongyu!?

If it were someone else, he might still be alert. Yet, this person was Mu Hongyu! She had already reached the Less Advanced Realm and didn't seem far from the Great Advanced Realm. It was as simple as ABC to come over silently. In the end, she coincidentally caught Yan Ge off-guard.

Yan Ge felt extreme regret. If I stayed in my room properly, nothing would have happened!

Previously, to avoid being discovered by Chu Liuyue, he had even specifically set up a few layers of defense in that room. Hence, Normal people could not enter. In the end… he defended against Chu Liuyue but not Mu Hongyu!

Mu Hongyu immediately stretched her finger. "Okay, but you have to tell me everything!"

Yan Ge felt his head ache as he turned around and went upstairs.

Mu Hongyu hurriedly followed him. She walked halfway and turned around to glance at Ming Shu. These people… seem to have been in cahoots long ago?

A chill ran down Ming Shu's spine. He immediately minded himself and pretended to be dead. That is all Second Boss's doing! It has nothing to do with me!

Mu Hongyu lightly grunted and stared at Yan Ge. I have to find out what is going on today!

…

They only took a few moments to go to the second floor from the first, but Yan Ge felt that two holes were about to burn the back of his head.

He forcefully supported himself, came to the door, and pushed it open. "Come in and talk—"

Behind him, Mu Hongyu's figure had already disappeared.

He was shocked and heard a voice from behind him. "Second Boss Yan, I'm here."

Mu Hongyu had already entered the room first and found a seat for herself. She patted the chair before her. "Come—sit down and talk slowly."

Yan Ge was speechless. Why do I suddenly feel like I'm about to be slaughtered?

Yan Ge resigned himself to his fate and closed the door, moving his feet with much difficulty as he came to Mu Hongyu.

The two of them exchanged glances for a moment.

"You're… Zhen Bao Pavilion's Second Boss, right?"

"…"

"You're also the one who used all sorts of reasons to reject and not see Liuyue?"

"...."

"You're also the one who gave us the Li Fire Xuan Painting and the Great Advanced Realm technique?"

"Second Boss Yan, say something!"

Yan Ge took a deep breath in and stiffly nodded.

Mu Hongyu stared at him calmly. From Country Yao Chen to Fantasy Divine Palace… Everything seems to be planned by somebody.

Yan Ge clasped his hands. "Missy, I can tell you, but you have to promise me that you'll keep it a secret!"

Mu Hongyu raised her brows. "Secret? This isn't something humiliating. Why must I keep it a secret?"

Yan Ge had a lot of difficulties. "Life pushed me to this end, life forced me here…"

Mu Hongyu thought for a while and said, "Tell me what exactly is going on then. Did you target Liuyue long ago?"

Other than this, she really could not think of another reason.

Yan Ge sighed. "This is a long story…"

…

Ming Shu stayed below to guard the area and frequently looked upstairs. He felt faintly worried. It has already been so long. Why haven't they come down? Second Boss wouldn't have relented and confessed everything, right? Then… What will happen to Master?
