Kapitel 47

Mu Tong was initially reluctant, but seeing the look in her master's eyes, she quickly went out, but still listened carefully at the door.

As soon as Ru Feng saw Mu Tong leave, the pressure eased, and she said in one breath, "Wen Chen, can I hug you?" After saying that, she stared straight at Mu Wen Chen, not missing his slightest reaction.

Mu Wenchen was quite surprised. He blinked rapidly, stared intently into Ru Feng's eyes, and after a long while, said, "Okay."

Ru Feng was overjoyed. Afraid that Mu Wenchen would change his mind, she rushed over and rammed into his arms, wrapping her arms around his back. Then she took a deep breath, and an indescribable fragrance, with a hint of sandalwood, entered her nose, making her heart flutter. She then savored the warmth of his embrace and listened to his steady heartbeat.

The two cuddled together for a while. Ru Feng didn't leave on her own initiative, and Mu Wenchen didn't urge her. Instead, Mu Wenchen slowly stroked Ru Feng's black hair a few times. Ru Feng shuddered and tightened her arms around him.

At this moment, she felt that she was doing this as a woman. In Mu Wenchen's arms, she felt her own petiteness and his greatness, which brought her a sense of security. This feeling was very unfamiliar, so she did not know how to react.

"Go home and have a good New Year. We'll see each other again soon," Mu Wenchen said softly.

Ru Feng nodded her head and continued to rub against him.

Meanwhile, Mu Tong, outside the door, clutched his head and ran to a tree in the courtyard, repeatedly banging his head against it, inwardly screaming: "Heavens! Their position! Homosexuality! Homosexuality—what am I going to do? So the reason my master has always been averse to women is because he likes men!"

A bolt from the blue! This realization completely stunned the usually composed Mu Tong.

Waaah... It's all... it's all Ru Feng's fault! Having found an outlet for her emotions, Mu Tong quickly rallied and decided to fight the enemy head-on in the days to come, preventing Ru Feng from having any physical contact with her master and resolutely pulling her master back from the wrong path.

With this in mind, Mu Tong was filled with fighting spirit again. He hadn't been this excited in a long time since he "retired," and he had found another goal in life!

Unaware of this, Ru Feng was still immersed in Mu Wenchen's rare tenderness, unaware that someone was already regarding her as a toxic bacterium.

That night, when she returned to the dormitory, Ru Feng drifted back, forgetting to even take a shower; all she knew was that she was very happy.

Yu Xuan frowned and stared at her for a long time, then pursed his lips and decided to ignore her.

As the holiday approached, the tests that were essentially final exams for Ru Feng and his classmates began. They were all busy day and night, experiencing both pain and joy! After all, finishing each exam meant that the day to go home was one step closer.

Don't be fooled by the students' usual calm demeanor; many of them are away from home for the first time in so long, so they miss it terribly and are eager to return. So when they start preparing for the exams, although they complain all the time, they are still very motivated.

Time passed quickly amidst the busyness. Ru Feng didn't have time to visit Mu Wenchen again in the past ten days because she was busy writing novels. Therefore, she had to spend more time preparing for the exam than others, not to mention that she also had to maintain her first place position.

Once again, Ru Feng was grateful for her excellent memory, as it saved her a lot of time.

Ten days later, it was time to go home. The students in the academy were all busy packing their luggage. At this point, grades were no longer a concern; getting home as soon as possible was the only truth.

The accommodation area was bustling with activity. Students greeted each other, checking if they were going the same way and could go back together. At the gate of the academy at the foot of the mountain, all kinds of carriages were crowded together, with servants coming to pick them up.

Taking advantage of a spare moment, Ru Feng stole a time to visit Mu Wenchen, said a few words of farewell, and finally left satisfied.

Back in the dorm, seeing Yujue and Yuxuan made her sad again. Sigh, she wouldn't see them for more than two months. Since Yujue and Yuxuan lived in the capital and were heading north, going completely the same way as Rufeng, Rufeng was particularly saddened.

Yujue and Yuxuan were no better off. Seeing Rujian's reluctant eyes, their hearts softened, especially Yujue's.

"Alright, alright, don't be sad. We should see each other soon. If we can manage to go to Grandpa's house in Qingzhou, we'll visit you when we pass through Yuezhou, okay?" Yu Jue patted Ru Feng's head, feeling as if he had returned to the scene when Ru Feng was three years old. Back then, when they parted, he could still hold little Ru Feng in his arms. Now... thirteen years have passed, and Ru Feng has grown up. He can only hug her if she agrees.

Hearing Yujue say that made Rufeng feel a little better. She thought there was still a chance to meet, so she relaxed and immediately changed the subject.

Yujue and Yuxuan looked at Rufeng excitedly packing her luggage, speechless. Where did that sad look from just now go?

When she went home, Ru Feng took Han Shan and Zui Yue with her; she wanted to show them to her family. Besides, she, Yun Tianze, and Rong Yiying shared a large portion of the same route, so they could travel together.

Yun Tianze still had a lavish procession, with many men in black behind him. Ru Feng, Zui Yue, Han Shan, and Rong Yiying rode in a carriage, with Han Shan and Rong Yiying taking turns driving. Originally, Rong Yiying refused to ride in the carriage with Ru Feng, as he wanted to ride a horse. However, it was cold and windy, so Ru Feng had no choice but to pull him in.

Of course, occasionally Ru Feng would splurge a little at Yun Tianze's place. Everyone chatted and laughed along the way, and the journey didn't feel tiring at all.

The group traveled without incident, and the occasional petty thief was easily dealt with by Ru Feng and the group of men in black. They only parted ways at the fork in the road.

Chapter Sixty-Two Revenge

After parting ways with Yun Tianze and the others, Ru Feng and his group gradually approached Yuezhou City. Yuezhou City was located in the south, and the winters were not too cold. After traveling by carriage for several days, Ru Feng became impatient and insisted on riding a horse himself. In the end, the three of them abandoned the carriage and switched to riding horses.

Even so, the speed wouldn't be much faster, because Zuiyue's health wasn't particularly good and she lacked internal energy, so she needed to rest every one or two hours. Moreover, upholding the spirit of a healer, Zuiyue also treated patients while staying at her lodgings.

As a result, the speed is naturally slow, so now, what should have been a two-day journey has taken three days and they still haven't arrived.

Ru Feng was getting impatient. Walking so slowly wasn't her style, and she had other plans in mind.

"Senior brother, it's my fault. I've dragged you all down." Zuiyue felt guilty, her beautiful face filled with unease.

Ru Feng smiled and shook his head: "It's alright, you can go slowly. Saving lives is a good thing, but I need to go back to the city early to do something. We're only half a day's journey from Yuezhou now, so I'll hurry back and finish what I need to do before I come back to meet you all, and then we'll go into the city together."

Hanshan and Zuiyue were puzzled, but Rufeng said, "Don't think about it. Anyway, it's not good for you to know about this. How about this, I'll wait for you at the city gate at this time tomorrow. If there's any emergency, we'll contact each other by carrier pigeon." Rufeng then gave some more instructions, "Hanshan, I'm entrusting Zuiyue's safety to you. I'm leaving now."

After saying a few more words, Ru Feng mounted his horse and rode away.

Han Shan watched Ru Feng's departing figure, then turned to Zui Yue beside him and asked, "Senior Brother, what is it that requires you to return early?"

Zuiyue shook her head, puzzled. "I don't know either."

"How could you not know? Aren't you your senior brother's..." Han Shan didn't finish his sentence, but his expression was not good.

Zuiyue smiled, "What is it about Senior Brother?" But a hint of anger flashed in her eyes, "Just say what you want to say!"

Han Shan regained his composure, stroked his chin, and chuckled, "Isn't she just Senior Brother's sweetheart?"

Looking at his smiling face, Zuiyue said in a deep voice, "My senior brother and I only have the feelings of senior and junior siblings, nothing more. Don't make wild guesses, anyway, the person my senior brother loves is definitely not me." After saying that, she turned around and walked into the inn.

Han Shan's spirits lifted, and he followed up, asking, "You really don't like your senior brother? Then why did you and Zui Zhu always blush when you looked at him?"

Zuiyue replied irritably, "Aren't you annoying? What business is it of yours what Zuizhu and I think?"

Han Shan stopped at Zui Yue's door, a pleased smile playing on his lips: As long as Senior Brother doesn't like Zui Yue, I still have a chance.
