All that was just because I didn't want Mu Hongyuan to end up like Heroine Yan... But if I had said that from the start, it definitely wouldn't have worked. Compared to asking Mu Hongyuan to open the seal, it was much easier for her to accept simply not being angry and not dwelling on this matter. People... are all about compromise... I learned this move from the Old Dragon King.
"Yuan'er," Wang Mu said suddenly.
Mu Hongyuan's delicate figure trembled. "What is it?"
"I have a favor to ask of you," Wang Mu said.
"Hah..." Mu Hongyuan waved her hand. "Not helping. So now you call me Yuan'er? How come you didn't remember this name when you were exchanging endearments with Heroine Yan?"
"It was 'Fleeting Beauty,' then," Wang Mu murmured, perhaps recalling a pet name.
