On the other side, Mu Lianshen drove to the small courtyard.

The entrance to the courtyard was quite wide, and the car stopped right at the gate.

Fu Xiao took out the key that Shen Xingzhou had given her and unlocked the gate.

The courtyard looked much the same as before, but it had accumulated quite a lot of fallen leaves due to being unoccupied for a long time.

She walked around and opened all the rooms to check.

There were a total of four rooms for living, one kitchen, and a storage room in the corner of the yard.

Mu Lianshen also inspected all the rooms and said calmly, "I'll have someone replace the old beds in each room, and add a desk as well."

Fu Xiao did not refuse; the beds were indeed a bit old.

Mu Lianshen then asked her to step outside and went to clean her bedroom with a cloth.

Fu Weilun watched from the living room as Mu Lianshen busily tidied up and raised an eyebrow with a smile, saying to Fu Yu, "A Yu, go sweep up the leaves in the yard..."

Fu Yu complied and went outside with a broom, while Fu Xiao followed behind with water to wash the ground and prevent dust from flying around.

After cleaning, the entire courtyard looked very tidy.

Mu Lianshen finished tidying up the room and they all sat in the living room, which was breezy, drinking tea and chatting.

As Fu Xiao started to show signs of tiredness, they all gradually went to their respective rooms for the night.

Mu Lianshen walked Fu Xiao to her room and then saw Fu Weilun standing alone in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

He walked over, his face remaining composed and indifferent, and said, "You're expected to advance this year, aren't you?"

"Yes," Fu Weilun did not hide it, "It is indeed my plan..."

Mu Lianshen seemed unsurprised, and after a moment of silence, said, "I heard that someone is causing trouble. Do you need any help?"

"No need," Fu Weilun smiled faintly, "This time, no one can stop me..."

Indeed, after so many years of effort, Fu Weilun's achievements in politics were unmatched.

Even if some people tried to create problems, it would be in vain...

His previous refusal to his teacher was not because he did not want to advance, but because he knew he couldn't hold the position if he were promoted at that time. Any mistake could have been fatal.

Now it was different...

Mu Lianshen nodded slightly, "That's good."

"The situation is still unstable," Fu Weilun said with a cold tone, "We should tread carefully and not take big steps for at least the next five years."

Mu Lianshen spoke lightly, with a smile, "You're right..."

Fu Weilun turned to him, "You should indeed return to the northwest. From what I know, things are not so peaceful in the military region either."

"I'm aware..." Mu Lianshen replied with a light smile, "Sometimes it's necessary to give others a chance. Otherwise, how will those who are hiding in the shadows ever come to light?"

Fu Weilun's gaze lingered on him, and though he seemed to want to say something, he realized it was futile.

He let out a soft laugh and went back to his room.
