The next day--

Zhong Mu rubbed her eyes and sat up from the bed.

Looking at Ju Hua beside her, Zhong Mu seemed to have thought of something. A faint blush appeared on her face. She put on her clothes carefully, and then Zhong Mu walked out gently.

Zhong Mu didn't know that not long after she left, Ju Hua, who seemed to be sleeping soundly just now, opened his eyes.

After a quarter of an hour, Ju Hua got up from the bed.

At this time, Zhong Mu had already put on a fancy outfit, and she was practicing a rather crude boxing technique in the courtyard outside.

Ju Hua looked at it for a while, and then he nodded inconspicuously.

Although the boxing technique is rudimentary, Zhong Mu's state of mind is not bad. Faintly, Ju Hua can see a hint of the unity of heaven and man!

With just a hint of chance, Zhong Mu can achieve the state of unity between man and nature.

In such a remote town, one can reach such a state at the age of eighteen, and his talent is considered to be of the highest quality.

Ju Hua watched for a while, and Zhong Mu soon noticed his arrival.

"Husband, why did you get up so early?" Zhong Mu walked over generously, with no trace of shyness like yesterday on his face.

"Compared to you, madam, I didn't get up early!" Ju Hua shook his head. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out to help Zhong Mu straighten the messy strand of hair in front of his forehead.

Zhong Mu remained motionless and allowed Ju Hua to move. After a moment, she smiled and said, "I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, so it is naturally different!"

"Why would such an outstanding girl like me take a fancy to me?" Ju Hua suddenly asked.

"Pfft!" Zhong Mu couldn't help but smile.

"Why are you laughing?" Ju Hua asked in astonishment.

"I thought your husband would ask last night!" Zhong Mu said, and then she said sternly, "My husband is just worried that I have other purposes now, and I won't explain it. As time goes by, he will understand!"

"."

A trace of surprise flashed through Ju Hua's heart, but then he felt relieved.

Zhong Mu is not an ordinary girl. She can support such a large business left by her father on her own, so there is no need to doubt her ability. Now she said this directly, which seemed inappropriate, but in fact it eliminated the gap between them to a great extent.

The relationship between the two suddenly became much closer, and Ju Hua also felt a sense of reality in his heart.

"My husband came to my house to work, and I noticed you from the beginning. However, at that time, I just thought you were good-looking, but had no other thoughts. Later, somehow, I gradually fell in love with you!" Zhong Mu said, "I think you have a calm temperament, husband!"

"Thank you, ma'am!" Ju Hua laughed. Indeed, since he failed to escape the tribulation, he has been much more cautious than before. Unexpectedly, this Zhong Mu noticed it.

"Did the husband agree to this marriage because he likes me?" Zhong Mu asked, blinking.

"."

Ju Hua did not answer. A few days ago, he had no feelings for Zhong Mu at all, and he could not tell lies, so he could only remain silent now.

Ju Hua didn't say anything. Zhong Mu naturally guessed the truth. Although she was a little disappointed, she didn't say much.

Zhong Mu had anticipated this incident, and the two of them had not had much interaction before. The reason why she was anxious to get married was purely because there were too many matchmakers who came to Ju Hua's door in the past few days. She was afraid that someone would get there first, so she acted preemptively.

Now that Ju Hua has become hers, there is no reason to run away.

Besides, Ju Hua didn't lie to her. Doesn't this just prove that she has a good vision and the husband she chose is an honest person?

"It's getting late today. Husband, go get some food. Then I'll take you to see our family's property!" Zhong Mu said with a smile:

"In the future, I will no longer need to carry these things myself, my husband will have to help me share them!"

"Okay!"

Ju Hua nodded directly and agreed.

"Then let's go!" Zhong Mu pulled Ju Hua and walked quickly towards the door.

After marrying Zhong Mu, Ju Hua's life in Frost City took a 180-degree turn. In the past, he was an idle person looking for work everywhere. Now, he has become the manager of Zhong Mu's huge business.

Ju Hua showed extraordinary ability in this area, and Zhong Mu also had enough trust in Ju Hua. So, within a few months, she put down her family property little by little, and stayed at home with peace of mind to support her husband and raise her children.

Of course, Zhong Mu is actually practicing more of her fists and kicks. According to her, her strength is indispensable for her to be able to defend her family business. Although she now lets Ju Hua take care of it, the deterrence that she should have is indispensable.

Maybe it was because Zhong Mu studied hard behind closed doors, or maybe it was because of other reasons. After a few months, Zhong Mu miraculously broke through the acquired perfection and became an innate being.

This is something Zhong Mu himself did not expect, and it is also something that all the residents in Frost City did not expect!

In the ordinary world, nature and nurture are two completely different concepts. When Zhong Mu was the day after tomorrow, there were still people who dared to talk about her behind her back. But after Zhong Mu became an innate creature, no one in the entire Frost City had the guts to talk behind her back.

In addition, Ju Hua, who has been managing his family's property, also felt it very deeply. Some industries in the city that were usually decent suddenly became prosperous, and many people who usually looked down on him became polite to him.

Zhong Mu became a congenital being, and the changes in the outside world were visible to the naked eye, but at home, Ju Hua and Zhong Mu were still the same. Ju Hua was not in awe because Zhong Mu became a congenital being, and Zhong Mu was not arrogant because she became a congenital being.

However, it didn't take long before Ju Hua was semi-forced by Zhong Mu to learn the rudimentary boxing techniques and the accompanying Qi training methods from her.

Zhong Mu did not explain the reason, but Ju Hua understood that the life span of a congenital being is twice that of a mortal, and Zhong Mu had the idea in his heart that he would also become a congenital being.

However, Ju Hua wanted to be a mortal in this life, so no matter how hard Zhong Mu taught him, he was still a waste and couldn't get in.

Many times, Zhong Mu was so angry that he was half-dead, but Ju Hua's strength never improved at all.

Later, Zhong Mu even wanted to go out and help Ju Hua find opportunities, but Ju Hua would agree no matter what. With his insistence, Zhong Mu had to give up the idea for the time being.

Three more years later, Zhong Mu accidentally rescued an old beggar in the city. It turned out that the old beggar, who looked ordinary, was actually a hidden immortal.

As soon as he pointed at the center of Zhong Mu's eyebrows, Zhong Mu immediately had an extremely profound qi training method and a complete set of boxing inheritance in his mind.
