"Ahem, if my guess is correct, this girl should be exactly eighteen this year." Being caught by the little woman, the Ghost Emperor coughed in embarrassment and had to look away, staring at her pretty face.

.

The little woman he likes is just different.

"What do you want to say?" Murong Xu looked at him and asked suspiciously.

"What, at this age, if you don't get married, you will almost become an old girl. How about I marry you?" After the Lord Ghost Emperor finished speaking, he stared into Murong Xu's eyes. It was originally just a joke, but this sentence

However, he was extremely looking forward to it, and he was extremely tempted, and strongly wanted to follow his thoughts.

Marry her, marry this young woman, and from then on she will only be his for the rest of your life, and no one can peep at her.

"You want to marry me so easily, you are so beautiful." Murong Xu was startled at first, and then said teasingly, but she felt empty in her heart, and a look of loneliness flashed in her eyes.

She never even thought about getting married one day.

"Really, if you don't marry me, let's see who dares to marry you!" The Ghost Emperor hummed, and with his big hands, he pulled the little woman into his arms. Their foreheads were touching, and his hot breath was sprayed on her face.

"Ahem!" Zi Lao outside rushed towards the Qingzhu Courtyard as soon as he knew that Murong Xu had left seclusion. When he saw this discordant scene, he stopped in time and coughed.

Murong Xu, who was trapped in the Ghost Emperor's arms, was suddenly startled, his face turned red, and he stared at the Ghost Emperor in annoyance, feeling extremely resentful in his heart, it was all his fault.

Lord Ghost Emperor's face was no better than hers, he was as heavy as the bottom of a pot, his whole body was breathing cold air, and he glanced at Zi Lao displeasedly.

"Ahem, girl, you are now out of seclusion, so I can wait for my master." Zi Lao coughed dryly, decided to ignore the Ghost Emperor, and walked directly towards Murong Xu.

This is his disciple's courtyard. It's so abominable for this grown man to seduce his disciple in broad daylight. It's not bad even if he doesn't punch him a few times, of course, provided he dares to punch him.

"How are you doing, master?" Murong Xu smiled lightly, his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, soft and pleasant, like the breeze blowing in the willows at dawn, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Zi Lao raised his eyebrows and looked at the girl carefully for a second. He had not seen her for three years, but now that she was out of seclusion, she felt a lot calmer.

If Murong Xu was like an unsheathed sword before, with too sharp a sharp edge, then now she is as calm as a chrysanthemum, with an air of elegance and casualness all over her body, as if the edges of the pebbles have been smoothed, and there is no trace of sharpness, unobtrusiveness, or brilliance.

Reserved.

This kind of her makes people more difficult to guard against, and makes it easier for people to relax their vigilance.

"Okay, okay, everything is fine." Apart from worrying about the girl all the time, everything else couldn't be better.

"Master, do you have anything to say?" Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Murong Xu asked.

He glanced at the Ghost Emperor on one side and considered whether to let him retreat first.

The Ghost Emperor's face suddenly darkened, and he glared at the little woman with itchy teeth. She dared him to step back and try.

"In three days there will be the elite selection competition for the inner circle children. Originally, you didn't have to go until you were out of seclusion. But now that you are out of seclusion, you see..." Zi Lao looked at Murong Xu inquiringly, although he really wanted this girl to go on stage.

Show your face, but if she doesn't want to, he won't force it.

After all, she is his apprentice, so he can still help her fight for this right.

"Is it mandatory to participate or is it a free choice?" Murong Xu pondered for a moment and asked.

"It is recommended by the disciples and elders within each jurisdiction of each palace and self-recommendation." As his disciple, she should participate. Of course, the decision-making power rests with her.
