Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

This was the first time that Mu Fushu encountered such a situation. His body was stiff and he looked very embarrassed, but he still calmly dragged a few boxes from the front to cover the gap on his side, and he never looked back from beginning to end.

Only Lu Zhiyao, who was standing behind him, could see his red neck and ears when she looked up inadvertently. Even in this situation, she suddenly felt like laughing for some reason, and her tension was relieved a lot.

He then hid behind a box, quickly took off his coat and put it on a box on the side, then dragged a few more boxes over to try to cover his body, which was completely exposed because of his wet clothes that were almost clinging to his curves. He made sure that even if the other person turned around, they wouldn't be able to see him at all before he breathed a sigh of relief.

This is Li's elder brother. When she was young, she saw him protecting her younger sister with a determined look in his eyes. Even though they haven't met much in Beijing over the years, she still has some understanding of him. He is an upright and honest person~ trustworthy!

But she had to take off her undershirt and wring it out as much as possible, so she still had to cover herself up!

Mu Fushu had already noticed with his peripheral vision that the coat on the box beside him was still dripping with water. He immediately raised his hand to quickly take the coat off and began to use his internal energy to dry it. Soon, a mist that was faintly visible to the naked eye rose from the coat.

But this silence was also quite awkward. After a moment's hesitation, he couldn't help but ask, "Princess, why are you out on the lake alone today? You didn't bring any extra guards with you. It's too dangerous for you! If I hadn't happened to be here today, your life would be in danger!"

Lu Zhiyao also understood what he meant and knew that he was just concerned about her, but she was also more aware that it was most likely just because of her good relationship with Sister Li.

She lowered her eyes slightly and was silent for a moment before she spoke, "...Today is the anniversary of the death of a family member. I just came out to relax, thinking that seeing the azure sea and blue sky might make me feel better. I didn't want to be disturbed, so I didn't bring so many people with me. But I still have to thank Master Mu for saving me today. Zhiyao is very grateful."

But in her current state, she couldn't come up with any decent thank you gift...

Lu Zhiyao hesitated for a moment, then took out a white jade pendant engraved with patterns from her sleeve, raised her hand and placed it beside him like the dress, her voice soft.

"Master Mu, if you don't mind, could you please accept this jade pendant as a token of my gratitude to you? Don't worry, it's not worth much, I just carved it casually. Every stroke was polished and carved by me personally, so it's a token of my appreciation."

Mu Fushu was a martial artist, so even without looking back he could still hear the sound of dripping water coming from behind him. He could roughly guess that she was draining the water from her clothes. His eyes suddenly flashed slightly, thinking that the people close to his sister were indeed very smart.

But he still politely rejected her suggestion in a gentle voice.

"My Lady, there's no need to be so polite. You and Ali are good friends, so it's only natural for me to save them. Even if it were someone else, I would have saved them too. So, there's no need for a thank you gift. Once your clothes are dry, put them on and I'll get your maid."

"Thank you for the trouble, but I hope you can accept the things. My status is quite embarrassing, and the little things I carved myself are really worthless. Do you also think that my things are unlucky?"

Staring at his broad and strong back, Lu Zhiyao's eyes dimmed for a moment but soon regained her composure. She persistently pushed the jade forward, this time further, and her voice became much lower.

Mu Fushu could see half of her jade-white arm exposed with just the corner of his eye. He quickly withdrew his gaze as if it had been burned, and his body tensed up to the point of stiffness. After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand to take the white jade and put it in his pocket.

After thinking about it, he softened his tone and spoke to her.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are common in this world, and you can't decide them. What do these things have to do with you? There are many busybodies in the capital. Some words are good for your ears, but don't take them to heart. Otherwise, your loved ones will be sad and your enemies will be happy!"

He was worried about this princess just after his sister made friends with her, so he went to investigate. As a result, he found out that all her family members had died, leaving her alone and even having a bad reputation of being unlucky and unfaithful to her relatives. She lived like a transparent person in the capital.

To be honest, if she hadn't stepped forward to help Ali testify against Hui'an when they were children, he would have almost forgotten that there was such a princess in the capital.

Lu Zhiyao was a little surprised that he would suddenly bring up this topic, but she quickly realized that he wanted to comfort her because of what she had just said, and a smile involuntarily appeared on the corners of her lips.

He agreed with a smile on his face.

"Okay, I'll remember everything and listen to you."

The girl seemed to be in a better mood and even her voice sounded pleasant, but Mu Fushu always felt that there was something strange about her words. However, he couldn't tell what it was, so he simply thought that he was overthinking it and handed the dried clothes in his hands to her without caring much.

"The clothes are dry now. Hide them first and I'll go get your maid right away."

"Thank you."

Lu Zhiyao looked at his back as he strode away, holding the warm clothes in her hands, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips. She lowered her head and smiled, looking inexplicably shy.

When Mu Fushu found Luyao, she was almost crying because she had lost her master. When she heard that he knew where the master was, she ran away in a hurry. He had no choice but to arrange a boat for Shuyan to take them away.

Fortunately, when he was helping someone dry clothes, he also dried his own wet clothes. This way, when he went out, at least it wouldn't be obvious to others that his clothes were wet.

By the time the master and servant had almost finished packing, he had already prepared the boat, and Shuyan was already waiting on the boat.

At this time, his colleagues also came over curiously, wanting to see what kind of "friend" could make him so busy. He was sending away his close confidants and arranging a small boat for them to dock. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

Who would have thought that when they sneaked over, they would see Princess Huining, who rarely showed up. They were stunned for a moment and then quickly bowed to her.

Princess Huining's position in the palace is indeed a bit sensitive due to her reputation, but no matter how sensitive she is, she is still a noble in the palace, and they still have to pay their respects and greet her when they see her.

Lu Zhiyao's clothes were still wet and she was not in the mood to chat with these people. She just nodded lightly at them as a greeting, then glanced at Mu Fushu again before smiling and being helped off the boat by Lu Yao.

If it were someone else today, they might not be so kind as to save people. This time it was really thanks to Master Mu. After she had packed up, she would definitely go to him in person to thank him. It turned out that the people in the Mu family were very interesting and kind.
