Wu Teng had seen the boy accompanying his brother right from the very start but did not know who he was. At first, he had guessed that he was just one of the people that were trying to get close to the mayor through his little brother, but Wu Teng knew that his younger brother would not tolerate people like that near him.

Seeing Lin Mu freely accompanying Wu Hei and seeing that he did not mind his presence and was actually accommodating of him made Wu Teng suspicious. But now that they had sat down on this private table and Lin Mu was still here, confirmed it for him.

Ever since he had been a child, Wu Teng had seen his younger brother staying alone. His sole companions were none other than books and more books. The very few people that he tolerated were the family and the servants. He would never play with the other children, and even he had to coerce him a lot to make him play.

Years passed by like that, and his younger brother only became more and more distant. Then, back when he was fourteen, he decided to go on a scholar's journey. His father Wu Xun was opposed to this and wanted Wu Hei to stay at home and cultivate properly.

Compared to him, he knew that his brother's talent in cultivation was quite low, and even after twenty years of cultivating he had barely reached the peak stage of the qi refining realm. While he himself had reached the mid stage of the core condensation realm, just one stage below his father, the mayor.

Still, under the incessant petering of his little brother, their mother eventually caved and pleaded Wu Xun to let him go. And thus Wu Hei went away on his scholar's journey throughout the empire. He spent ten years like this and only returned six years ago.

But after his return, he had only become more cold. Their mother had also become dissatisfied with their father during this time, and their relationship was cold. While his brother stayed in contact with him throughout the years he was gone, Wu Teng still felt as if he had greatly changed and was hiding something.

No matter how much he tried he couldn't get him to open up, and at this point, he had just given up and had accepted that Wu Hei was simply just like this. This was his natural personality and there was nothing he could do to change it.

Even now Wu Teng had fully expected that his little brother would deny his teasing question, but he didn't know that today was going to be surprising to him.

"Yes, elder brother. Brother Mu Lin is a friend of mine." Wu Hei accepted.
