Therefore, she concluded in her heart that Lin Zhu must be a woman disguised as a man.

The clever girl did not expose Lin Zhu's "disguise" and said smugly, "Yu Yan greets Young Master Lin."

"Finally, someone has realized I'm a man! That's quite an achievement!" Lin Zhu seemed very happy. "Greetings, Miss Wang. I have come as invited."

Seeing that the two people in front of her really knew each other, the old nanny bowed slightly and said, "Miss, Young Master Lin, this old servant will go and report back to Madam now."

"Go!" Wang Yuyan waved her hand.

After the old nanny left, Wang Yuyan looked Lin Zhu up and down carefully. "Lin Sister is so beautiful, even more beautiful than me."

"Stop, stop, stop, stop!" Lin Zhu hurriedly said, "Miss Wang, I am a man."

Wang Yuyan was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized and said, "Okay, Young Master Lin."

"I am a man, a man," Lin Zhu emphasized again.

Wang Yuyan nodded and said, "I understand, you are a man. Do you have a way to get me out of here? I want to go to Wuxi."

Lin Zhu realized that Wang Yuyan didn't treat him like a man at all, which was very disheartening.

But how could he explain it? Wang Yuyan had already addressed him as "Young Master."

'Whatever, whatever.'

"Just go ahead, your mother can't stop me anyway. I have two friends in the front yard, we might have to go together."

"Is this alright?" Wang Yuyan hesitated, still quite afraid of Li Qingluo.

Lin Zhu wasn't going to indulge her and asked, "Just tell me if you're leaving or not."

Wang Yuyan paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's go!"

She risked everything for her cousin.

Lin Zhu: "Then pack your things and put your luggage in the storage space."

"Hmm!" Wang Yuyan nodded. "This storage space is really convenient, and you're the one who created it." As she spoke, she smiled sweetly, her eyes flashing in Lin Zhu's eyes.

A moment later, she went inside, packed her valuables, and took some money. "Young Master Lin, let's go," she said, taking Lin Zhu's hand. 'So smooth! So tender! It feels so good!'

Lin Zhu paused for a moment and looked at the hand that was being held.

"What's wrong?" Wang Yuyan asked.

Lin Zhu reminded them, "Men and women should not touch each other."

"Pfft!" Wang Yuyan covered her mouth and laughed. "Alright." Her eyes showed indifference as she released Lin Zhu's hand.

"Do you think I should also dress as a man?"

'I'm devastated!' A voice echoed in Lin Zhu's mind.

"You should just forget about it."

“That’s true. If I wore men’s clothes, I would look out of place. You look perfect in this, very harmonious.” Wang Yuyan thought for a moment and replied, adding a compliment at the end.

"If you say so, then so be it." Lin Zhu sighed silently, and the two walked towards the front yard.

In the front yard, Li Qingluo didn't take advantage of Lin Zhu's absence to bury Tang Bohu and Duan Yu to use as fertilizer, but instead served them tea.

At the same time, he inquired about Duan Zhengchun's whereabouts from Duan Yu, subtly asking whether Duan Zhengchun was still philandering.

Chapter 18 Duan Yu's Embarrassing Moments

As the saying goes, a son should not speak ill of his father, so what could Duan Yu say? He could only give an awkward smile.

Upon seeing Duan Yu's expression, Li Qingluo knew that Duan Zhengchun had once again harmed many other women, and couldn't help but sneer.

Tang Bohu's eyes darted around. He knew about Duan Zhengchun's romantic escapades. After all, even Dali, which was so big, wasn't enough for him to cause trouble, so he came all the way to the Central Plains.

If Duan Zhengchun hadn't been the Prince of Zhennan in Dali, he would have been castrated by righteous people long ago.

Tang Bohu was extremely curious about who the woman Duan Zhengchun had harmed was.

If Lin Zhu were here, he would probably satisfy Tang Bohu's curiosity.

Let's take a look at Duan Zhengchun's confidantes: Dao Baifeng, the cuckold breaker; Qin Hongmian, the demon swordswoman; Gan Baobao, the charming night demon; Li Qingluo; Ruan Xingzhu; Kang Min...

Which one of them isn't a top-tier beauty?

These are just the ones whose names you can recall; there are many more whose names you can't recall. Duan Zhengchun himself probably can't even remember how many people he has harmed. He even suspects that Ye Erniang might have been harmed by him.

To be honest, Dao Baifeng was really tough; she was able to squat down even when Duan Yanqing was like that.

On the other side, Wang Yuyan walked ahead, leading Lin Zhu to the front hall, where she saw Li Qingluo, Duan Yu, and Tang Bohu sitting there awkwardly.

"Mother!" she called out cautiously.

At that sound, Duan Yu's body trembled, and he turned around to see Wang Yuyan's face.

Then, as if under a spell, he stood up and stared at Wang Yuyan intently.

Li Qingluo was about to ask Wang Yuyan why she had come out when she saw Duan Yu's appearance and felt a surge of disgust. 'No wonder they're father and son; both are lustful devils, even eyeing their own sister.'

"God, fairy sister!" Duan Yu exclaimed in a daze.

Wang Yuyan turned to look at Duan Yu, and seeing his appearance, she couldn't help but take a step back and asked, "Who are you?"

Lin Zhu chuckled inwardly, 'Brother Duan, there's a surprise coming!'

"I am Duan Yu, and I greet the Fairy Sister."

To everyone's surprise, Duan Yu immediately knelt down.

"What are you doing?" Wang Yuyan was startled and hid behind Lin Zhu, grabbing his clothes and only peeking out her head.

'Is this person mentally unstable?'

Li Qingluo and Tang Bohu were also taken aback.

Li Qingluo: 'This kid is seriously ill.'

Tang Bohu: 'Brother Duan, is this some new way of picking up girls? But a man's knees are worth gold!'

Kneeling wasn't enough for Duan Yu; he kowtowed three times on the ground with a loud thud.

He idolized Wang Yuyan, but the one who suffered was Lin Zhu.

“Brother Duan, you’ve got the wrong person. The jade sculpture in Langhuan Paradise is extremely similar to Miss Wang, but it’s not her.”

Upon hearing this, Duan Yu stopped kowtowing and froze in place.

Li Qingluo was also stunned for a moment, but she couldn't stand Duan Yu's behavior even more.

As Wang Yuyan's "brother," how could Duan Yu kneel before his own sister? She was mainly afraid of shortening her daughter's lifespan, so she quickly pulled him up.

"Young Master Duan, my Yu Yan cannot accept your bow."

Duan Yu then realized that there were other people around, and stood up awkwardly.

This was also because Wang Yuyan's appearance had a profound impact on him.

"Xiaozhu, is this your friend?"

"Don't call me Xiaozhu, call me by my full name." Lin Zhu said helplessly. In the soft Wu dialect, Xiaozhu sounded like a little pig.

Hearing Wang Yuyan address Lin Zhu in such a way, Duan Yu felt a pang of disappointment; his entire demeanor softened. 'So Brother Lin and this Miss Wang are such good friends.'

Tang Bohu thought even further: 'With Brother Lin's looks, if he were to pick up girls, what chance would Duan Zhengchun, Chu Liuxiang, or Lu Xiaofeng have? Even Jiang Feng couldn't compare!'

Li Qingluo, however, didn't care at all.

“Okay, Lin Zhu.” Wang Yuyan nodded.

Tang Bohu, however, offered a helping hand, saying, "Brother Lin's courtesy name is Renqian. Miss Wang, you can call him by his courtesy name."

"Renqian!" Wang Yuyan called softly.

Lin Zhu thought it was better than a pig, so she nodded in agreement.

Li Qingluo thought to herself, "A woman with a given name must come from a scholarly family." She nodded in agreement.

Duan Yu then interjected, "Renqian, a fine name, just like Brother Lin's."

It's true that as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed.

The other four were indeed embarrassed and really didn't want to talk to this guy.

Li Qingluo could easily see that Duan Yu was seeking validation and had taken a liking to her daughter.

A thought struck him, and he asked, "Young Master Duan, besides yourself, do you have any other brothers or sisters?"

Lin Zhu's eyes flashed. 'It seems I don't need to say anything more!'

Duan Yu said somewhat embarrassedly, "I also have two younger sisters at home."

Li Qinglu sneered inwardly, "Are they siblings from the same mother?"

Duan Yu forced a smile and said, "No!"

Li Qingluo: "Then what do you think of my Yuyan?"

"Miss Wang, Miss Wang is certainly wonderful." Duan Yu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be...?

For a moment, he was overwhelmed by a sense of immense happiness and completely failed to grasp Li Qingluo's meaning.

But Li Qingluo's next words plunged him into despair.

"There is absolutely no possibility between you and her, understand?"

"I... I am certainly not worthy of Miss Wang." The immense sense of loss made him feel like crying.

Wang Yuyan stared with her big eyes, not understanding why her mother was saying these things to this young master Duan.

Seeing Duan Yu's expression, Tang Bohu turned his head away, forcing himself to suppress his laughter.

Lin Zhu was inwardly disappointed. 'Madam Wang, you're not doing a good job!'

Li Qingluo was taken aback upon hearing this. 'How could this person be so stupid?' She could only say calmly, 'Good that you know.' Then she looked at Wang Yuyan, 'Yuyan, what brings you here?'

Wang Yuyan looked at Lin Zhu and tapped his waist with her finger.

Seeing this, Li Qingluo said, "Just tell me, why are you looking at Young Master Lin?"

Duan Yu looked at Lin Zhu with envy, 'I wish I were Brother Lin.'
