Full-Time Mage: Double Return, Niu Ma Mo Fan

Chapter 109 Taking Advantage of the Situation! Beating up Mu Zhanxing won't cost a penny!
As a mid-level mage, to be approached silently and without warning, Mu Nujiao's heart almost ran away.

However, when she smelled that familiar scent, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"You scared me! You didn't even tell me you were coming back. How awful!" Mu Nujiao said with a childlike resentment.

"The door made a sound when it opened, didn't you? You didn't notice. What are you thinking about?" Meng Qiuzhen asked after smelling her pleasant body fragrance.

Although he was able to conceal any aura on his body after his primordial spirit reached the minor completion stage, and would not be detected even if he entered the perception range of some commander-level demons, he did make a sound when he opened the door just now.

Normally, Mu Nujiao would have noticed, but today she was seriously distracted and caught off guard, which allowed Meng Qiuzhen to sneak up on her from behind.

"I'm thinking about the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce. I feel that its future is in big trouble, and we should consider countermeasures as soon as possible."

"By the way, I heard that Mu Ningxue has already qualified for nomination at the Imperial Capital Academy. She's really amazing."

"And the recent undead plague in the ancient capital seems to be quite serious."

"Your opponent in the third round of the nomination competition is not to be underestimated. I heard it's Dongfang Lie, who's ranked first on the Fire Ranking, and Zhou Shuming, the genius from the Zhou family."

Mu Nujiao spoke eloquently, recounting many recent events.

Meng Qiuzhen's embrace was very warm, and she felt a strong urge to confide in someone while being held.

"Aren't you going to tell me about your current situation?" Meng Qiuzhen pinched her slender waist and asked softly.

"My current situation? There's not much to say about it." Mu Nujiao shook her head.

"Can you secure a spot in this nomination race?"

"I'm afraid I can't do it. It's too difficult for me to break into the top ten and qualify for a nomination right now. After all, there are many hidden geniuses in the main campus."

"I've only just entered the main campus, I'm at a huge disadvantage."

"Well, after your defeat this time, the Mu family probably won't provide you with any more resources, right?"

"I can also ask my family for more, which will allow me to improve my strength once again."

"is it?"

Meng Qiuzhen remained calm and slowly uttered two words.

Just as Mu Nujiao finished speaking, he could sense that her body moved almost imperceptibly, indicating that she was not as calm as she appeared.

The room fell silent for a moment as the two of them stood close together, looking down at the Qing Campus.

After standing there for more than ten minutes, Meng Qiuzhen finally spoke:

"If you make demands this time and they don't meet your expectations, you'll lose all your personal freedom, right?"

Mu Nujiao was taken aback for a moment, then bit her lip and nodded.

She was unwilling to lose. Mu Ningxue could do it, and she felt that she could do it too. But she was also afraid that if she made any more demands, she would become a complete puppet of the family, and be at their mercy.

For women, there are many things they can listen to, but what about marriage? Marrying someone they have absolutely no feelings for?

The current predicament made her extremely worried, and she didn't even notice when Meng Qiuzhen got close to her. This was unlike the warlike Mingzhu Goddess she usually was.

"Then can I take advantage of the situation and take you away from the Mu family?"

Mu Nujiao's ears suddenly burned, and she turned around to look at Meng Qiuzhen, their eyes meeting less than a few centimeters apart.

"You want to propose marriage to the Mu family, but I'm not ready yet."

Although Mu Nujiao said that, her body had already unconsciously leaned against the other person, her body speaking more truthfully than her words.

"Propose marriage? What's the point of proposing marriage? Just beat up Mu Zhanxing and take you away, that'll do. It won't cost you a penny, how great is that?" Meng Qiuzhen said in a serious tone, leaving Mu Nujiao speechless.

"You're being incredibly rude. My grandfather is quite powerful; without him, the Mu family wouldn't be as large as it is today."

The Mu family treated her well, and she was also a direct descendant of the Mu family. She didn't dislike the Mu family, and even if they stopped giving her resources, she wouldn't say anything. It was all about self-interest.

"Haha, just kidding, how could I be that kind of person?" Meng Qiuzhen said very seriously, he dared to say anything.

Mu Nujiao couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. "Are you kidding me?" She thought this guy was really capable of doing something like that.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Since the Mu family is no longer providing resources, how about I take care of you? As long as you have talent, I'll even max out your forbidden spells." Meng Qiuzhen said these words in the most ordinary tone, words that shocked Mu Nujiao to the point of trembling slightly!
This man won't say he can't do it; if he says he can't use a forbidden spell, he really will!

His expression was normal, and his tone was somewhat lazy, but Mu Nujiao really believed him, just like when he said he would beat up Mu Zhanxing. She really believed him!

"You said it yourself!"

"I said, consider this payment as a bed-warming fee. From now on, you can warm my bed every day."

"rogue!"

Mu Nujiao gritted her teeth and pushed him away.

He could have easily charmed the girl, perhaps even taken the opportunity to push her down.
But Meng Qiuzhen didn't do that; instead, he would occasionally blurt out some infuriating things.

"You're not trying to get something for nothing, are you? If you do, I won't be happy."

Before Meng Qiuzhen could finish speaking, Mu Nujiao leaned over and covered his face, sealing his mouth with her red lips to prevent him from saying anything more that would anger him but was also unavoidable.

Since magic can't defeat him, then let's take revenge on this man we both love and hate using methods other than magic.

It seems that their first time was in the living room. Mu Nujiao was very bold and launched a fierce offensive against Meng Qiuzhen on the spot.

However, Meng Qiuzhen was an experienced player, and Mu Nujiao's fate was already sealed the moment she launched her offensive.

……

The next morning.

When Meng Qiuzhen opened her eyes, Mu Nujiao was no longer beside her.

A very subtle fragrance was constantly teasing him.

"She's awake." Mu Nujiao, dressed in thin clothes, saw Meng Qiuzhen walking towards her following the scent, and her legs trembled involuntarily before she spoke.

She played too hard last night and is a bit dehydrated. She can barely walk now, and her legs tremble slightly from time to time.
"Hmm, you're awake. Your cooking skills have improved; the aroma is even better than before."

"Of course. I crammed on my cooking skills last time. Being able to eat breakfast made by the eldest daughter of the Mu family, you've already surpassed all the students at Pearl Academy, even though you were already exceptionally talented to begin with."

"You have a third nomination round to participate in later. Your opponent today is no ordinary player. I hope you can stay in bed the whole time."

While busy making breakfast for Meng Qiuzhen, Mu Nujiao explained the enemy's intelligence to him.

She guessed that Meng Qiuzhen would not bother to understand his opponent, so Mu Nujiao consciously took on these tasks for him.

As she was speaking, Mu Nujiao suddenly froze, then turned around and glared angrily at Meng Qiuzhen: "You've offended me!"

"Haha, sorry, young people are like that in the morning, there's nothing we can do about it."

"Don't worry about it, you make your breakfast, I'll eat mine."

Meng Qiuzhen said something that Mu Nujiao couldn't understand.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Nujiao couldn't help but let out a muffled groan: "Mmm~~"

If Meng Qiuzhen hadn't held her, she would have collapsed to the ground. Now she understands what she was saying earlier.

She had only worn a dress when she woke up, with no other clothes, which made it easy for Meng Qiuzhen to succeed. Before she could even react, she had already fallen for his trick.

"You still have a third match to play, you need to conserve your energy~" Mu Nujiao's words came out in a broken voice.

"It's alright, I'm always at my peak. My unparalleled combat power isn't just talk," Meng Qiuzhen said with great enthusiasm.

This breakfast was very much to his liking; it was probably the best breakfast he had ever had.

As the atmosphere intensified, Mu Nujiao could no longer hold back; even in her poor condition, she would not admit defeat.

It was winter in Shanghai, but the warmth of the floor where the two of them were in Jinyuan Apartments made winter shy away.

Spring is here, everything is coming back to life, it's here again.
