If you don't have any secrets, going to the Lord's Mansion is indeed a good choice.

But he couldn't go to the Lord's Mansion.

If he spends time with the woman in front of him, it is very likely that some of his secrets will be discovered. If sword manuals or even treasures such as pine wood are discovered, it is hard to say whether Leader Qi will be greedy.

Then you will be in real trouble.

What's more, he had already agreed to Wanbao Tower.

Therefore, after making what seemed to be a very difficult decision, Muning still shook his head, "What Chief Qi said is indeed very tempting to me, but I really don't like to be restrained."

Leader Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, not expecting Mu Ning to refuse.

"Are you sure? Don't you need to think about it further? Besides, I won't restrict your freedom any more. You can still be the same as you are now."

Mu Ning was a little embarrassed, "Actually, Wanbao Tower also approached me before, and I agreed to participate in the assessment for them."

"This has no conflict with going to my lord's mansion."

Before Mu Ning could finish speaking, the woman immediately interrupted him.

Mu Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Chief Qi, it's not that I want to reject you on purpose. I do have a reason why I can't go. I once promised that because of the conditions of my savior, I would go to a place to complete some things for her.

This matter will probably take a lot of time. Before I complete my commitment, I cannot belong to anyone's subordinates for the time being. As for Wanbao Tower, it is just a transaction between me and them."

Muning's attitude was very firm.

Several young men standing next to Leader Qi frowned immediately, not happy that Mu Ning rejected Leader Qi like this.

"Do you know how rare it is for Commander Qi to personally invite you? This is your honor, and you still refuse it time and time again?"

The speaker was a young man who looked to be in his thirties. He was dressed like a scholar, but the disdain and anger on his face completely wiped out this scholarly temperament.

After hearing this, the smile on Muning's face became much smaller.

"It is indeed an honor for Chief Qi to invite me, but she invited me, not you. I think this is not the place for you to complain."

The man was stunned for a moment and then became furious.

"you!"

He pointed at Mu Ning and was about to say something, but was suddenly stopped by Chief Qi.

"Shut up!"
