Chapter 339: Insidious and Unworthy
"Mr. Gray, I once heard that rules exist to prevent people from fighting wantonly." In front of the hotel, under the observation of Tabesha and others, Mu Hua said to Gray.
A casual suit with exquisite fabrics and proper color matching can show his taste and status in both business occasions and social gatherings.
Cufflinks, collar clips, bracelets, rings, and some exquisite accessories that look quite expensive.
Young and unruly, Gray has a very upright posture, and he has the temperament of a noble young master.
Faced with Mu Hua's questioning words, Gray was slightly stunned, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Haha, Mu Hua, right? Don't be so polite, just call me Gray." Gray said with a smile, looking at Mu Hua with interest.
"Want to kill? Haha, there's something wrong with that."
"When a miracle happens, a sufficient number of sheep may be able to kill a lion."
"But rules, rules exist to prevent lions from killing sheep wantonly." Gray said to Mu Hua.
"Even the species are different? The rules between people have distorted the concept of people. Is this the doctrine you believe in?" Mu Hua frowned.
"It's just a relatively easy-to-understand metaphor. Haha, I won't say something I shouldn't say." Gray laughed playfully.
"Mu Hua, right? It seems that my previous understanding of you is a bit biased. You are an adventurer, just like you and the necromancer just now. The minimum standard for the rules to be established is also lions and hyenas."
"Isn't it?" Gray walked a few steps closer to Mu Hua, and pulled Ivy's arm while talking.
Ivy's arm was lifted by Gray, and the cuffs slipped down, revealing the marks of ropes on her wrists.
"We haven't met before, but you don't seem to like me."
"Is it because of the necromancer just now? Or because of this?" Gray pulled Ivy's wrist to his mouth and kissed it gently.
"That necromancer was a mistake."
"If it's this, you don't need to worry. She likes this, you know? This is just our little entertainment." Gray said, holding Ivy's waist.
Twitching his mouth, seeing Ivy and Gray acting like a couple, Mu Hua was speechless.
"Mu Hua, what are you going to do? It's not your turn to take care of my business. If you think that necromancer is related to us, you should interrogate him instead of trouble Gray." Ivy defended Gray with all her strength, and said to Mu Hua with a cold face at this time.
Although he was disgusted in his heart, Mu Hua still had a helpless expression on his face. In fact, Mu Hua is also good at pretending. In fact, few people who crawl at the bottom of society can't act.
Some perform well, some perform badly, some have someone to cooperate with them while they are acting, and some find that they can't get any benefits and simply refuse to act.
No matter whether it is screwing screws or mixing in society, what is the most important thing when you are out there?
Straightforward and tough people usually die quickly.
People who are scheming and cunning are bound to be stabbed in the back.
Simple and low-class people will inevitably be excluded and bullied.
In the end, the only ones left are those who can pretend and act.
Mu Hua wanted to stab Ivy, but he couldn't just take out a knife when they met, right?
First choose a way to get along with her, and then let Tuesday throw a "death" on her. In order to reduce some of his suspicion, Mu Hua chose the conciliatory route, which resulted in a lot of disgust for himself.
He understands a lot of principles, but understanding does not necessarily mean that he will do it, and when he really does it, he will be disgusted in a minute.
"Oh, forget it, let's go and see the room prepared for you first, and you can find me if you need anything." Mu Hua sighed helplessly and turned to look at Gray.
"Mr. Gray, no matter what, her last name is Benson." Mu Hua hesitated, with a little stubbornness and a little warning in his tone.
"It's a pity that you are not Benson." Gray's smile faded, and he glanced at Tabitha with an ambiguous expression on his face.
"Mu Hua, you seem to be a smart man. The relationship between Benson and your family may be more complicated than you think. If you have time, I think we can talk." Gray said to Mu Hua.
While talking, Gray had already walked towards the hotel with Ivy, leaving Mu Hua with a back view. And Ivy glanced at Mu Hua, opened her mouth, and finally did not speak, but turned to hold Gray's arm and chuckled and muttered something.
A group of strong men escorted Gray and the others into the hotel. Mu Hua raised his eyebrows slightly. What else could the Benson family have to do with him except Samantha?
He has had the thoughts of an adult since he was a child. He has never been a child who knows nothing since he was born. He has lived at the bottom of society for most of his life in his previous life. As long as he doesn't talk about those professional knowledge, there is nothing he can't understand.
After Samantha married into the Benson family, it definitely caused a lot of negative impact on the Mu family, but that has nothing to do with him.
The older generation had all died before he was born. Family affection cannot be created out of nothing, and self-indulgence is also taboo. The cheap parents didn't give him the opportunity to cultivate feelings.
If blood must be said to create family affection out of nothing, then at least wealth, fame, glory, even if it is a vague pride, can be created out of nothing. At least the descendants should be able to find one of them, right?
People always like to imagine the psychological activities of orphans as pitiful, which is somewhat taken for granted.
Before real orphans start to feel sorry for themselves, they are definitely thinking about how to survive alone without anyone to take care of them.
Just like a fledgling leaving the nest, it is a habit engraved in the biological instinct. They will only become more independent and more self-centered. They will only feel sorry for themselves when it is beneficial for them.
In fact, if we really want to judge good and bad by kindness, innocence, honesty, etc., there are really few "good things" among orphans.
Even the fact that orphans still have a hard life and development when they grow up is not because they did not have their parents to take care of them when they were young, but because they did not have the care of their elders when they grew up.
So, no matter how much the Benson family is related to the Mu family, it is estimated that Mu Hua will not think much about it.
Leaving the nest early and being independent, if you have to talk about blood ties, I don’t know whether it is a humane or anti-humane argument.
At this point, the only people he was involved with were Samantha and Tabitha.
Mu Hua heard some provocation and seduction in Gray's tone, but unfortunately, just like Mu Hua expressed his feelings to Ivy in the wrong way, our Seventeenth Young Master obviously expressed his feelings to Mu Hua in the wrong way.
Everyone dispersed, and Tabitha walked to Mu Hua.
"Let's go?" Tabitha gestured to Barbara to leave and said to Mu Hua.
"Hmm?" Mu Hua was puzzled and couldn't help but follow Tabitha's footsteps.
Going around the hotel and coming to the edge of the training ground, from a distance, in a corner of the training ground, a group of young men and women were sharpening swords with Hengjin grinding wheels.
The so-called Hengjin is the ore that can be refined into demon gold coins. The name is quite high-sounding, but it is essentially different from demon gold coins. It is not a very precious thing, so there is no need to say more here.
Sharpening knives, repairing weapons with grinding wheels made of Hengjin particles, is also a compulsory course for logistics personnel.
Shooting practice is to enable logistics personnel to have a certain self-protection ability in emergencies.
Physical training is to cope with the weight of miscellaneous items.
Setting up tent camps, dismantling monster corpses, loading and repairing cars, sharpening arrows, maintaining weapons and equipment, etc., these are the main tasks of logistics personnel.
Standing side by side with Mu Hua, watching the men and women in training from a distance, Taibesha spoke softly.
"Cousin, do you hate Ivy?"
"Why do you ask that? Can't it be because of you that I want to take care of her? After all, she is your sister."
"Who keeps calling me a bastard?"
"It's just a title. I admit that it's a bad habit."
"Hehe, as long as you like it. However, cousin, leaving a sinister impression on people around you is somewhat not worth the loss." Taibesha rolled her eyes, with a tone of advice.
"Is it that obvious?" Mu Hua wondered.
He didn't say a word to Ivy. It's okay to say he's familiar or hypocritical. How could Taibesha directly connect it to the extent that she hates Ivy?
"It's not obvious, it's just my feeling. Of course, the premise is that you can keep pretending." Seeing that Mu Hua was no longer playing dumb, Taibesha said with relief.
"We should focus on ourselves. They have chosen a different path from us. Everything they have revolves around family power struggles. Samantha doesn't like us to get involved in those trivial matters."
"And you have a magical abyss island. We don't have to target them." It's not emotional non-competition. Mu Hua can clearly feel her disdain for Ivy and others from Taibesha's tone.
Mu Hua frowned slightly. Samantha didn't let Taibesha get involved in family affairs. Mu Hua even felt that Samantha didn't support Taibesha's adventures much.
Is this a kind of naivety? Or a kind of protection for Taibesha?
Mu Hua didn't quite understand it for a moment, but when he nodded to deal with Taibetha, he didn't intend to target those illegitimate children. He just promised Samantha to kill them.
Especially after seeing Ivy dragging the young master of the Caesar family to cause trouble for the hotel, inviting a wolf into the house? Destroying the family business? Digging into their own corner?
Although he has not experienced the so-called family education, Mu Hua thought, this is not how the family fights for power, right? Watch too many soap operas?
After seeing Ivy, Mu Hua understood Samantha's reason for killing them. (End of this chapter)
