A rare opportunity

Chapter 685 Resolving the feud

Hou Rujing waited and waited, but Mu Chengqi didn't knock on the door. He found that he seemed to be running away, and he became anxious! He thought: I just want to humiliate you, why the hell are you so timid? Okay, okay! I won't humiliate you, as long as you apologize, right? If not, you don't have to apologize! As long as you knock on the door, the grudge between me and you will be written off! I have no way to retreat, but you knock on the door!

In fact, Hou Rujing had been looking forward to Mu Chengqi's arrival! After all, if he wanted to leave Lanyu Star now, he had to rely on Mu Chengqi! Because only he could make a spaceship!

When he found out that Mu Chengqi was standing at his door, he was really happy. At the same time, he was also a little proud! You old man, you finally have something to ask of me! Originally, he thought that Mu Chengqi would drag Li Yu along. In that case, due to Li Yu's feelings, he would not be able to avenge the previous arrow. But now that he came alone, he had nothing to worry about!

However, the sarcastic words he had prepared were shattered by the procrastinating Mu Chengqi! In the end, he could only lower his requirements again and again.

This repeated concession was not because Hou Rujing was magnanimous! It was because he knew that this was a golden opportunity for him to reconcile with Mu Chengqi!

If two people have conflicts and disagreements, if they want to resolve them, it is best for them to exchange opinions openly. Instead of asking a peacemaker! A peacemaker can only make peace with things, not people! With the participation of a peacemaker, the two parties may appear to be in harmony on the surface, but in fact they have a grudge against each other!

If Li Yu was involved between him and Mu Chengqi, for Li Yu's sake, both sides would show superficial reconciliation. However, true reconciliation could not be achieved! In their daily interactions, there would always be some knots in their hearts.

If they don't work together, it's fine. At most, they won't see each other. But if they want to help him refine the spaceship, they have to meet often, and even spend every day together! You know, in the process of refining the spaceship, it is impossible for the two of them not to have disagreements! So what should they do if there are disagreements? If there is no grudge between them, they will always find a way to seek common ground while reserving differences. If there is a grudge between them, then the rift between them can only grow bigger and bigger until they break up again!

What should we do if there are disagreements? We can't always go to Li Yu, right? Even if we can reach an agreement every time with Li Yu's mediation, it will be difficult to bridge the gap between us! Not only is it time-consuming and laborious, it is also not conducive to the refining of the spacecraft!

Therefore, when he saw Mu Chengqi wanted to leave, he couldn't help but open the door and tried hard to force a smile!

Namu Chengqi was asked and hurriedly bowed and said:

"I came here to seek advice. I hope you will teach me. I will be very grateful!"

Since Hou Rujing didn't mention the unpleasantness between them, Mu Chengqi was happy to see it happen. He wouldn't make trouble for himself by asking for an apology. After all, it was always embarrassing to apologize.

Hou Rujing was unhappy when he heard this, but he didn't want to ruin the good atmosphere that had just been established. He smiled and said:

"No way! No way! Mu Sheng is a master of weapon refining, but I am a layman. How dare I show off my skills in front of an expert?"

Mu Chengqi couldn't hide his disappointment when he heard this! He thought to himself: I was too abrupt! But it's no wonder. After all, they had conflicts. How could he agree to my request so easily? I just thought it was simple! It seems that Li Yu needs to step in!

Hou Rujing observed Mu Chengqi's expression and saw that he was stunned. He knew what he was thinking and immediately changed the subject and continued:

"However, Hou can share what he has seen and heard with Mu Sheng. It may be helpful for Mu Sheng to refine the spacecraft!"

Mu Chengqi's eyes lit up when he heard this! He quickly perked up and stared at Hou Rujing intently.

"Although I don't know how to refine weapons, there are many masters of refining weapons in my sect. Among them, there are masters who specialize in refining spaceships. It happens that I am familiar with one of them, and I have the honor to observe the process of his refining spaceship. During the refining process..."

Hou Rujing did not mention the shortcomings of the spaceship made by Mu Chengqi, nor did he mention the advantages of the refiner he observed in the process of refining the spaceship. He just narrated the process of observing others refining the spaceship. However, the process of his narration showed the shortcomings of Mu Chengqi! Mu Chengqi was sweating profusely after hearing this! So much so that when Hou Rujing finished speaking, he immediately stood up and bowed to Hou Rujing and said:

"It's true that listening to your words is worth ten years of reading! Senior Hou's words have opened my eyes and benefited me a lot! Today I know that I am just a frog in the well! It's ridiculous that I don't know myself. I am so arrogant that I almost made a big mistake! I have been disrespectful before, please forgive me!"

Be respectful in expression and sincere in words!

I thought that if Mu Chengqi didn't apologize at first, then there would be no apology. But Mu Chengqi's sudden action was beyond Hou Rujing's expectation! He quickly reached out to help him up, and said sincerely:

"As the saying goes, there is no good talk in a quarrel! You don't have to care about it, Lord Mu! Besides, it was all Hou's fault for being too impatient and speaking rudely. I hope Lord Mu will stop blaming Hou!"

"Alas! It seems that the senior still cannot forgive me! As the saying goes, honest advice hurts the ear! Now that I think about it, everything the senior said is true. It's just that I was too conceited and wrongly accused you! What the senior said makes me feel even more ashamed!"

Not only did Hou Rujing fail to help Mu Chengqi up, Mu Chengqi's waist bent even further!

Hou Rujing was originally a lively and casual person, and he was already uncomfortable with such polite words! He just kept it to himself for fear of causing displeasure to Mu Chengqi. Seeing that Mu Chengqi was so sincere, he seemed to be a man of temperament, and couldn't help laughing:

"Hahaha! Old Mu, can you please not be so polite? It's common for men to quarrel and fight! You're not a woman, making a fuss over trivial matters! Let him go!"

Mu Chengqi was stunned when he heard this! He then straightened his back and laughed:

"Hahaha! Just do as you said, senior. Let the ball roll! A real man should be able to take it and let it go!"

"Okay, okay! It's more comfortable to talk like this! I'm so depressed!"

"That's right! Old... I'm also feeling very frustrated!"

"Hey! In that case, let's stop the fake politeness between you and me! If you don't give up, how about we call each other brothers?"

"This……"

"It's nothing! Brother Mu, it's settled!"

"Okay! Brother Hou!"

The two couldn't help but look at each other and laugh!

"Brother Hou! Since we have nothing else to do, how about we go to the weapon refining workshop right now? Even though you said it so easily, I still can't fully understand it. I still need Brother Hou to go over and help me!"

"What else is there to say? Let's go! We have nothing to do anyway! I might as well go with you for a walk! But I have to make it clear in advance. If I say something unpleasant, you are not allowed to get angry with me!"

"Of course we have to turn against each other! I can't always listen to you, right? But you can only turn against me, not hold a grudge!"

"Right, right, right! You are only allowed to quarrel with each other, but not to bear grudges! That's it!"

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

The two of them immediately went out hand in hand, chatting and laughing.

Li Yu also wanted to join in the fun, but not only did Mu Chengqi ignore him, even Hou Rujing didn't have time to pay attention to him! Feeling bored, he had to leave with Mu Xue.

At first, Li Yu was still worried that Hou and Mu would have something dirty going on. So he would often go to the weapon refining workshop so that he could coordinate the relationship between the two at any time. Indeed, he often saw the two of them glaring at each other, or even arguing loudly. But when he walked up to try to mediate, the two of them asked him to leave at the same time! They didn't even give him a chance to speak! Fortunately, not long after, the two of them would get together again, whispering to each other, and even chatting and laughing!

Li Yu was confused for a moment, but he was relieved to see that the two of them were able to reconcile quickly.
