It's not that Mu Dade is reluctant, it's that he can't bear others thinking he's a failure, thinking he's not capable.
Back when Mu Dade was taking the scholar exam, he was looked down upon and the whole family was disappointed in him.
Only he didn't give up on himself.
That's how he earned the scholar title today.
All of this is his own achievement and has nothing to do with anyone else.
At night, just as Mu Dade was falling asleep, the door creaked open.
It was Ruan Xiao Jiao.
After placating the County Magistrate, she came to Mu Dade's place.
"Da De..."
Recently in the Capital, the two were like honey, indistinguishable from any other couple.
Even every night, Mu Dade would accompany Ruan Xiao Jiao to sleep.
"Jiaojiao, why did you come? Over at the County Magistrate..." Mu Dade embraced Ruan Xiao Jiao and asked softly.
"He went to sleep at the madam's place tonight. I asked him about your position as secretary and he said it's pretty much settled.
