Rebirth: Counterattack: I heard that the Imperial Marshal has a crush on me

Mr. Barlow's eyes and nose could not wait to get tangled together. He blew on his beard and stared for a long time, "Hmph, you're smart."

Cen Xue took a peek at Chu Muxi, and found that he was eating matcha cake elegantly, and his gestures were very aristocratic.

"What is Mr. Barlow talking about? Are you two playing charades?" Until this moment, Cen Xue felt that her IQ seemed a little insufficient.

Under the stare of Mr. Barlow, Chu Muxi finished eating the matcha cake slowly, then took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth, folded the handkerchief and put it aside, with an expression of serious conversation.

"Master Barlow, I have a gracious request."

Mr. Barlow snorted and said, "What if I don't agree?"

"Although I will be very sorry, I will not force an old man." Chu Muxi smiled lightly.

"Little fox, you are a bit like your grandfather again, as shrewd as you are." Mr. Barlow took a breath of his cigarette and narrowed his eyes.

Chu Muxi hooked the corners of his lips, "Thank you for your compliment, my grandfather must be very happy to hear you say that."

Mr. Barlow snorted coldly: "I'm not praising him, don't talk nonsense." After a pause, "You really want to? Can you make up your own mind? Let me tell you, as long as you say it, don't think about it."

Chu Muxi pondered for a while, then nodded calmly, "Of course, I'm going to the coming-of-age ceremony soon, and I can make my own decisions about everything I say and do."

Mr. Barlow looked him up and down for a long time before he hummed.

Cen Xue didn't dare to interrupt for a long time, so she asked weakly now. "So, what the hell are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, I haven't fully agreed yet, young man, let's talk about it after passing the assessment." Mr. Barlow said with a smile, flashing a shrewd look.

"Please wait and see." Chu Muxi replied confidently.

On the way back, Cen Xue wanted to ask Chu Muxi what agreement he had reached with Mr. Barlow, and what did the assessment refer to?She intuitively felt that this was very interesting news, but Chu Muxi just smiled mysteriously and didn't answer anything.

"By the way, senior." Before parting, Chu Muxi suddenly said, "Thank you for allowing me to meet Mr. Barlow, so, in order to repay your favor, I can promise you the shooting of the event theme you mentioned earlier—— "

"Wow, really?! Muxi! Seriously? Then let's get ready!" Cen Xue asked excitedly, forgetting Mr. Barlow, this matter is the real thing.

"I haven't finished yet, I have conditions."

"What conditions do you say! As long as you agree to participate!"

Chu Muxi smiled slightly, "Don't worry yet, I want to use a section of your news club back."

"Huh?" Unexpectedly, it was this condition, Cen Xue was a little stunned.

"What? Are you going to go back and discuss it with someone? Then I can—"

"No, no, no, no, I can give you an answer now, but can I ask why you made this condition?" Although their news club has begun to see a large scale, with the strong support of the school, it has its own Publishing channels, but after all, they are not as good as those big media. It sounds like something is not right to ask for their boards.

"It's okay, just save a piece for me when the time comes." Chu Muxi smiled slightly.

Regardless of whether Cen Xue left with a full stomach full of doubts or excitement, Chu Muxi hesitated for a while whether to go directly to Chu's house or Lu's house, and then received a communication from Shen Wu.

"Grandpa? What's wrong?"

"Xiaoxi, are you free now? Can you come to grandpa's place later, there is something I want to tell you."

"Oh good grandpa."

Since grandpa wants to see him, he must go to see grandpa first.

He was about to find a way to get to his grandfather when the communication rang again.

But instead of a video call this time, it's a text message.

[Where? ]──Lu Junzhi.

Chu Muxi blinked, not understanding why this person would suddenly send him a text message, and even ask such a close person would ask about the content.

[Near the school, preparing to go to Central Island to meet my grandfather. ] After posting, Chu Muxi remembered that he couldn't get to the central island.

The only way is to ask the person in front of him for help, but will it be too much trouble for him?

Just at this time, my grandfather also sent a new message.

[Xiaoxi, I forgot just now, you seem to be unable to get to the central island by yourself, or grandpa should go home when he turns around, we will talk about it later. ]

Just as Chu Muxi was about to answer, another text message popped up.

[Send me the coordinates, and I will pick you up. ]

Before Chu Muxi could reply, the next text message beeped again.

[Stand there and don't move. ]

Chu Muxi snorted and couldn't help laughing while holding the communicator.He sent back a message to his grandfather—[Grandpa, Marshal Lu said he was coming to pick me up. ]

Is this marshal really the one known as the most ruthless God of War in the empire?

[Okay, thank you. ]

Chu Muxi sighed, thinking that if the other party treated him like this for the sake of his grandfather, then after a few days, when the system matching result came out, he might not be so polite to him.

He didn't wait long there when an airship stopped in front of him.

This is not the airship that Lu Junzhi sent him away before. Obviously, he changed to a small one that can only be used by two people, and it is not noticeable.

However, thinking that he would face Lu Junzhi face to face in a narrow space after getting in the car later, for some reason, his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.

The airship opened the door, as if making a silent invitation.

Chu Muxi gritted her teeth and boarded the airship.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Lu Junzhi who was looking at him expressionlessly, "Hi, I met Marshal Lu again, please come and pick me up to Central Island."

Lu Junzhi glanced at him, "By the way."

Chu Muxi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't intentional, otherwise he felt that he couldn't afford it for the time being. "Thank you, too."

After all, not everyone has the time to pick up and drop off a person who has only met a few times, let alone the person in front of him is the Marshal of the Empire.

If he hadn't met his grandfather already, he would have wondered if he was dreaming.

There was a moment of silence in the airship, and Chu Muxi was wondering if he had said something wrong, when Lu Junzhi suddenly said, "Are you so polite to everyone?"

Chu Muxi froze for a moment, then smiled and said: "No, you misunderstood, I am being polite to you, not intentionally keeping distance from you. I just—" He said shyly, "I just admire you too much You will be like this."

Half true and half false, at least, before the matching result comes out, don't make the other party feel like I'm rushing to post.
