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

Lu Junzhi left after giving him the gift. He still had military duties and had a special status, so he couldn't stay for long.

Chu Muxi watched him board the airship and leave before turning back to the room.

"After the adult ceremony, do you have time?"

He remembered the question he asked himself before the other party left.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Take you to the Deep Space Fortress." Unexpectedly, Lu Junzhi still remembered this matter.

Chu Muxi frowned, "Okay! I can do it anytime!"

Back in the room, Shen Wu happened to push the door open and enter. "Musi, wait a long time."

Chu Muxi smiled, "Grandpa is the one, thank you for your hard work, Grandpa."

"What does the family say is hard work or hard work? I don't think it's hard to hold my grandson's coming-of-age ceremony dinner several times." Shen Wu walked up to him with a smile, looked him up and down, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red. "Okay, okay, our Xiaoxi has finally held a coming-of-age ceremony. If your mother is still here—" He choked up his sobs when he said this.

Chu Muxi leaned forward and reached out to hug Shen Wu. "Grandpa, I'm an adult now, and I don't need you to work hard alone in the future, and I can help you share it."

Shen Wu patted him on the back, "Alright, grandpa should also retire and enjoy life in peace."

Chu Muxi chuckled, "Okay, then grandpa will just wait and enjoy the happiness."

As Shen Wu said, he saw the box in Chu Muxi's hand.Although Shen Wu was not here just now, he knew all the movements within the range of Shen Yuan.So as soon as Lu Junzhi's airship reached the sky above Shen Yuan, he knew it.

However, he didn't know what gift Lu Junzhi gave his grandson. Seeing that the exquisitely packaged box had already been opened, he couldn't help asking curiously, "This is a gift from Xiao Lu?"

"Yeah." Chu Muxi smiled openly, and it seemed that he was in a good mood.

Shen Wu narrowed his eyes, "Have you been very close to him recently?" Although Lu Junzhi has a great aura, in the eyes of the people of the empire, he is a unique existence.

But in Shen Wu's eyes, only his grandson Chu Muxi is unique.

In this era when men and women can also get married, Shen Wu had to think a little more about why Lu Junzhi seemed to be particularly fond of his grandson.

"It's okay." Chu Muxi didn't notice the sudden change of Shen Wu's expression, he is now happy when he received a gift he loves.He raised the box in his hand and handed it to Shen Wu, "Grandpa, guess what Brother Lu gave me?"

Shen Wu followed him lovingly and asked, "Oh? What is it? A laser gun? Or an intelligent AI?"

"Neither of them." Chu Muxi smugly said, "It's a dark blue starry sky stone!"

"What?" Shen Wu was really taken aback this time, this can be regarded as a priceless treasure.The treasure that the whole empire is eager for, Lu Junzhi actually gave it away as soon as he said it. "Really?" He still couldn't believe it.

Chu Muxi pouted and opened the box. "Grandpa, look for yourself, why should I lie to you?"

Shen Wu lowered his head to look into the box, and seeing that gem that was as bright as a galaxy, he couldn't help being dumbfounded.

This was indeed the dark blue starry sky stone that everyone was obsessed with, Shen Wu's expression became more and more weird.

At first, I thought I was overthinking it, but now the only few dark blue starry stones that the empire can get from the military headquarters and research institutes are all given to marriage partners or lovers without exception.

Lu Junzhi gave Xiaoxi this coming-of-age gift, but Shen Wu couldn't think of any other reason.

"Grandpa? What's wrong with grandpa?" Seeing Shen Wu staring at the gem in a daze, Chu Muxi yelled twice.

Shen Wu came back to his senses, "Grandpa is also the first time to see this gem at such a close distance, it is really extraordinary, you should keep it well."

"That's for sure. I will definitely keep such an expensive gift." Chu Muxi said seriously.

The corner of Shen Wu's mouth twitched into a smile, temporarily suppressing the thoughts in his heart, "Okay, let's go downstairs with Grandpa first, the guests downstairs are waiting."

Chu Muxi nodded, "Good grandpa." He put the box directly into his storage ring.

The storage ring was a relic left to him by his mother. He had been stringing it up on a chain and hanging it around his neck, but he hadn't shown it to anyone.

Chu Muxi took Shen Wu's arm, followed him out the door, and went downstairs to meet the guests.

Guests gathered in the lobby on the first floor, and it was very lively.

Xu Jinian stood at the stairs, and when he looked up, he saw Chu Muxi and Shen Wu going downstairs.

He hurriedly cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet for a moment."

The people who had been chatting lively stopped talking one after another and looked at him.They all noticed that the boy in a gray-blue suit walked down the stairs on the second floor with Shen Wu, the owner of Shen Yuan.

"Who is this boy? He looks so handsome. I have never seen such a handsome boy."

"This is the grandson of Mr. Shen, the son of Miss Shen."

"Ah, it's that Miss Shen who took the initiative to marry that poor boy but died young due to illness?"

"You don't even know this, how did you get the invitation, oh, you came with someone else."

The person who asked the question was someone who came with a certain son or brother to see the world. Before he came, he only knew that he was going to the famous Shen Yuan on the central star, but he didn't know much about Chu Muxi.

"It's that Chu Tianhao, the upstart who has just risen from the central star, and it is said that he has climbed up to a certain member of parliament."

"Chu Tianhao, I know, hahaha." A mocking voice sounded.

"Is that the Chu family whose son wanted to rape another illegitimate son? Shen Lan married such a family?" A disdainful voice.

"Hush! What do you know, don't talk nonsense." Someone heard it and quickly reprimanded: "Miss Shen was cheated back then, otherwise how could that poor boy like Chu Tianhao win Miss Shen's favor. That's fine , he was still raising a lover outside, and in the end Miss Shen died of depression."

"Yes, the one who had the accident this time was the illegitimate son of the senior mistress back then, and the other one was also an illegitimate son. So, people like Chu Tianhao really die hard."

"Such a person deserves to be in the upper class. He really has no shame." Someone said with a snort.

"Look at this one in front of you, he is the dragon and the phoenix, the real noble son."

"Exquisite eyebrows and extraordinary temperament, this child is not a thing in the pool at first sight."

Everyone applauded and praised while following Chu Muxi and Shen Wu to the center of the hall.

"Thank you for coming to our Young Master Sun's coming-of-age ceremony dinner—" After Xu Jinian's opening remarks, he gave up his seat to the focus of today's audience—Chu Muxi.

Shen Wu encouraged and patted the back of Chu Muxi's hand lightly, Chu Muxi smiled slightly, walked forward calmly, and stood in front of the microphone.

"Hi everyone, I'm Chu Muxi. First of all, thank you very much for coming to my coming-of-age ceremony dinner today."
