Chapter 324: 324: Xiaobai Gets Tricked
If Mu Mingyu knew what Mu Qiuniang was thinking, he would definitely say: Great aunt, don’t you know there’s a saying "old child"?
That’s exactly the state you’re in now!
Without writing, Jiang Nuo is not around, and she doesn’t need to be busy preparing gifts for her fans. Other than cultivation, Mu Qiuniang really doesn’t have much to do.
Before meeting Jiang Nuo, the first half of her life was all about "cultivation"; after meeting Jiang Nuo, aside from "cultivation," she was "taking care of" him.
Having some "unexpected events" in life seems to be a very beautiful thing! Occasionally recalling it, she feels that the years she has spent after meeting him were particularly joyful. It seems time has never flown by so quickly and been so colorful.
Every time she thinks of it, she can’t help but add a bit of sweetness at the corner of her mouth.
Looking at such a great aunt, Mu Mingyu also feels very good. If he could, he would be willing to take care of such a great aunt until the end of time.
Just then, the phone suddenly rang.
Mu Mingyu answered the call, and his face changed the moment he listened: "Don’t worry, speak slowly. What happened to Xiao Bai?"
Xiao Bai? Mu Qiuniang put down her teacup and looked over.
"Okay, I got it, I’ll arrange a private plane right away and fly over with my great aunt." Hanging up the phone, Mu Mingyu said to Mu Qiuniang, "Great aunt, something’s happened to Xiao Bai, and something’s happened to Young Master Jingshu as well."

In fact, given Mu Qiuniang’s abilities, she doesn’t need any plane; she could directly use a magic artifact to fly over. But in this day and age, there are surveillance cameras everywhere on the streets, and even a phone can record; no one can guarantee that flying out so blatantly won’t get accidentally filmed by someone?
Even if you don’t get filmed, if you suddenly appear in another city from one city, if someone investigates it, can they not find any trace at all?
Mu Qiuniang herself doesn’t care about these details, but her all-capable steward, Mu Mingyu, can’t ignore them. As long as Mu Qiuniang doesn’t plan to reveal her identity as a cultivator, any detail of his arrangements must not expose Mu Qiuniang’s secret.
Moreover, given the current economic strength of the Mu family, a private plane is not a problem at all; even if the Mu family can’t do it, with Gong Leitian’s status, it’s totally okay for him to arrange a plane for her.
Therefore, not even two hours after the call was hung up, a private plane landed at a certain airport. Once off the plane, a luxury car was waiting to take them straight to a certain hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, the first to greet them was Murong, wrapped in bandages with a tense expression: "Master, you’re finally here!"
Just as he began to speak, Murong felt a grievance welling up and was on the verge of tears, "If you hadn’t come, my sister would have... and Brother Jingshu, too... Boohoo... Master, it’s all my fault, I’m so stupid!"
Lu Mingchen stood silently on the side, without speaking, but his expression was also very somber. Probably because he didn’t know what to say at such a time.
"Mingyu, get in touch with the hospital, I’m going in to save them."
"Yes, great aunt!"
Mu Qiuniang went straight into the operating room.
Lu Mingchen was startled: "How did Sister-in-law Jiang get in?"
"Of course, she’s going in to save my sister and my brother. Brother Lu, don’t worry, as long as my master is here, my sister definitely won’t be in trouble. Once she wakes up, I’ll let her properly listen to your confession..."
Lu Mingchen didn’t deny his feelings for Mu Bai any longer, but he still held reservations about whether Mu Qiuniang could save both Mu Bai and Zhan Jingshu.
Mu Mingyu directly called the hospital to handle the situation of Mu Qiuniang barging into the operating room to save people without the hospital’s consent.
Although he also felt that this behavior of barging in without any notice was very improper, in urgent matters, he wanted to applaud the recklessness of the great aunt: Well done!
Entering the operating room, Mu Qiuniang cast a hand gesture, and the doctors and nurses in the middle of surgery involuntarily moved aside.
Then, a stranger woman took out a set of silver needles, grabbed the surgeon’s scalpel, and began operating on the patient on the operating table.
In that moment, they intended to resist and stop her, but before they could act, it was as if their brains reacted a beat too slow, watching her complete the surgery.
Moreover, her surgical movements were so fast that they couldn’t see how she operated, only feeling her fingers seemed to glow, moving swiftly, inserting a silver needle into the patient’s brain, then with a blur of the scalpel, the fragments in the wound were removed, and the wound was sealed back together.
And the method she used was also different from theirs, even though she also used needles, hers were silver needles, and they were applied with a white powder she seemed to produce out of nowhere.
Immediately, the wound began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They were as if watching a fantastic movie, eyes wide open.
After the surgery ended, this woman touched the patient’s forehead, and the patient woke up. As the patient woke up, she almost tearfully said: "Great aunt, you’re finally here, thank goodness..."
"Don’t talk yet, I’ll let Arong in to accompany you, you should rest well. I’ll go check on Jingshu, his injuries seem to be worse than yours."
"Yes, I’ll listen to the great aunt!" Mu Bai was very moved.
Even the great aunt said that Zhan Jingshu’s injuries were worse than her own, yet she saved her first. Does this mean she is more important to the great aunt than her disciple?
For some unknown reason, she just felt inexplicably happy.
Mu Qiuniang had just left for a while when Murong and Lu Mingchen came in.
Murong’s eyes turned red upon seeing Mu Bai awake: "Sister, you’re finally awake. Do you know, you scared me to death just now!"
"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to." Mu Bai’s eyes also reddened a little.
Lu Mingchen stood to the side, saying simply: "It’s good that you’re awake!"
"Thank you, Brother Lu!" Seeing him, Mu Bai felt a bit embarrassed. After all, if her brother and Zhan Jingshu hadn’t reacted quickly, she almost implicated Brother Lu in her injury.
Fortunately, Brother Lu is okay; otherwise, she would feel guilty for life!
Finally, it was the doctor who reminded the three of them that this was the operating room, not a ward, and suggested they go back to the ward to continue their conversation, or else they might have really kept on talking.
After returning to the ward, Murong insisted his sister close her eyes and sleep first, under the pretense that she had just woken up and needed to rest.
Once Mu Bai’s breathing became steady, he gritted his teeth and said: "That Qiao Zhichuan, I definitely won’t let him off!"
Lu Mingchen added: "Regardless of whether he had anything to do with this incident, I won’t let him off either."
"Brother Lu, you like my sister, right?"
"Yeah!"
"Then you should pursue my sister. Although my sister is delicate and a bit hard to maintain, with your financial capability, you can handle it. If it comes to it, I can have my cousin give my sister a bit more pocket money every month. I think you’re better than that Qiao Zhichuan."
Unexpectedly gaining his future brother-in-law’s approval, Lu Mingchen was still quite surprised: "Shouldn’t I get the consent of your great aunt?"
"Of course, you need to!" Murong said, "I’m just saying you’ve passed my test, but as for my master and my sister, you’ll have to handle that yourself."
"..." How is this any different from not having it handled? It’s not that Lu Mingchen was dismissing Murong, but he had no authority to make decisions, so his approval didn’t mean much.
