"Drinking isn't going to solve the problem," Mo Fan savored the lingering fragrance of the lips at the edge of the glass.
"I'm just resting. Drinking some alcohol will help me sleep better." Mu Nujiao was still angry. She did not understand why she had to stay in the same room with such a pervert.
"Oh, oh, I thought you were feeling down, so I wanted to say something to encourage you …" Mofan smiled awkwardly.
Mu Nujiao pouted her lips. It was rare for her to act like a virtuous little girl. She must have drunk a few cups before Mofan arrived.
"Then say something to encourage me, I want to hear it too." Mu Nujiao lay down on the couch lazily, as if she had let down her guard. She lay down comfortably and curled up slightly.
She exuded a seductive charm when she was slightly drunk. She accidentally opened her collar, revealing her deep cleavage. Mofan was almost drooling when he saw it.
Damn it, ever since he started living with these two girls, his consumption of tissues had skyrocketed. When would he be able to grow up a little, so his children and grandchildren would not be left to dry on the breeze!?
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Mu Nujiao raised her head to look at Mofan, as if she was sleepy.
She happened to see Mofan drooling like a pack of wolves lusting after a little lamb. Mu Nujiao immediately sobered up when she realized how seductive her sleeping posture was. She sat up straight and glared at Mofan!
"Pervert!" Mu Nujiao cursed under her breath.
"Hehe …" Mofan let out a perverted grin.
Mu Nujiao was about to leave when Mofan called out to her.
As a matter of fact, Mofan could tell that Mu Nujiao was indeed troubled by the World College Tournament. Otherwise, she would not be drinking like this, nor would she be seeking comfort. Even Mofan was not as determined and hardworking as she usually was.
"Why do you care so much about the World College Tournament?" Mofan asked.
It had been a few months, but Mofan hadn't been able to see Mu Nujiao much. This meant that she had devoted all her time to cultivation and training.
"Mm …" Mui Nujiao glanced at Mo Fan and saw a confused look on his face. She let out a wry smile and said, "You're not around, so you don't know much about the disciples of renowned clans."
"I happen to be free tonight." Mofan leaned back and said.
"There are two types of people in the noble families. The first type is those who do nothing and abuse their power. These people are looked down upon by the noble families. When it comes to the benefits of the family, they are sacrificed. No matter what the family asks them to do, who they marry, where they stay, they don't dare to disobey. To put it bluntly, if you eat and drink from the family, then you have to listen to everything the family says. Everything!" Mui Nujiao emphasized the word "everything".
Mofan opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
"The second type is those who rely on the resources given to them by the family to improve themselves. Take loans for example. If you want to surpass yourself, you'll need a lot of loans from the family. This will give you a head start, but you'll have to show enough results in the future to repay the loans. Otherwise, you'll still be under their control. Most people will reluctantly accept whatever the family arranges for you to do. However, the most common arrangement, which is also the most uncontrollable one, is through marriage. There will always be cooperation between the families, but there is no trust between the families, so marriage is the only guarantee. This is also why there are so many so-called forced marriages in novels and movies. " Mui Nujiao had drunk a lot today. Normally, she wouldn't use such extreme words to describe the noble families.
Mofan listened carefully. He had never seen the people of the noble families from this angle. Even earlier, almost all the commoners complained that the people of the noble families were blessed by the heavens.
"So you're saying that the people of the noble families who are forced to marry are the ones who brought this upon themselves?" Mofan followed Mui Nujiao's point of view.
"Most of them are. Of course, there are exceptions like Ai Tutu," Mui Nujiao said with a hint of envy in her eyes.
Mofan had always been curious as to why a normal woman like Mui Nujiao would get along so well with a lunatic like Ai Tutu. So this was the reason.
Ai Tutu was always envious of Mui Nujiao's appearance, figure, and elegance. Every man who saw her would fall head over heels for her …
"And obviously, Mu Ningxue's situation is the same as mine." Mui Nujiao's eyes suddenly focused on Mofan. It was as if she was trying to see through Mofan's heart.
Mofan didn't expect Mui Nujiao to suddenly mention his first wife. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Why did you mention her?"
"Aren't you paying attention to her?" Mui Nujiao asked in return.
"What do I pay attention to?" Mofan asked, confused.
"She won the nomination battle at the Imperial College. The news was just announced today," Mui Nujiao said.
Mofan opened his mouth in shock.
Was Mu Ningxue really that impressive?
The nomination battle at the Imperial College was supposed to be more intense than the one at the Pearl Institute. She was also a new student, yet she had won the nomination right away. It seemed like her strength had improved a lot in the past few days …
Oh …
No wonder Mui Nujiao was in a bad mood today. She looked like she was in need of comfort.
It turned out that she had learned that Mu Ningxue, who was in the same batch as her, had won the nomination!
She was also a proud woman with a bewitching appearance. She was also from a renowned clan. She was also a goddess respected by everyone in the institute. She had already won an important vote, but Mui Nujiao was most likely going to be eliminated!
Mofan was going to comfort Mui Nujiao by telling her that it was difficult for a new student to compete with an old fox, but he could not bring himself to say it.
Mui Nujiao was comparing herself to Mu Ningxue, a talented Magician.
"I can still ask for more from my clan. It will improve my strength again, but … I'm a little scared," Mui Nujiao changed the topic and revealed her biggest worry.
"Are you afraid that you will lose your freedom if you fail to meet their expectations?" Mofan asked.
Mui Nujiao bit her lips and nodded.
She was unwilling to lose. If Mu Ningxue could do it, she believed she could do it too. However, she was afraid that if she continued to ask for more, she would become a puppet of her clan. She would have to listen to their orders. For a woman, there were many things she could listen to, but what about marriage? Marrying someone she did not have a good impression of?
Since Mui Nujiao was asking for his opinion so seriously and sincerely, Mofan could not just brush her off. He thought for a moment and said, "If you're afraid, you should give up."
"Why?" Mui Nujiao was startled. She was all ears.
"You don't have to work so hard …" Mofan said with a brilliant smile, "I can afford to raise you."
Mui Nujiao sobered up. She rose to her feet and stormed off in a huff.
Stinky man, this stinky man, she should have known that asking for his opinion would not give her a proper answer. Why did she have to look forward to it!?
Mui Nujiao's footsteps became heavier as she walked up the stairs. It felt like she was venting her anger on the stairs.
She soon heard Mofan's voice behind her.
