After the meal, Li Qiran brought over a variety of home-grown fruits and brewed a pot of tea before leaving, giving Lin Mu and Xiang Yunlong some space. She knew that these two had something to discuss.
"You obviously didn't keep me here just for a meal, so out with it. What's the matter?" Lin Mu mumbled as he grabbed a piece of fruit and took a bite.
Xiang Yunlong gave an awkward smile. "It seems nothing can be hidden from Mr. Lin."
Taking a deep breath, he said, "Then I'll be direct. I'd like to invite you, Mr. Lin, to serve as the General Instructor of the Sichuan-Shu Military Region!"
Lin Mu was slightly taken aback. No wonder Xiang Yunlong had sent Zhou Dalong away after dinner. Was he meant to take Zhou Dalong's place? Looking at the nervous Xiang Yunlong, Lin Mu shook his head slightly.
"Mr. Lin, if you have any conditions, please name them. I will meet them as long as it's within my power!" Xiang Yunlong began to assure him.
