Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

After hearing Yun Ting’s words, Shi Yi hesitated for a while before deciding to change his clothes.

This time, he changed into his usual dark green clothes.

“How’s this?”

He walked to Yun Ting and asked nervously.

“Yes, it’s better.”

Yun Ting sized him up and nodded calmly.

“Then, I’ll wear this.”

Shi Yi tidied his sleeve, his expression one of satisfaction.

“What happened to you today?”

Yun Ting frowned. Why didn’t he care so much about his clothes in the past?

“There’s something!”

Shi Yi smiled. He stood up and clasped his hands behind his back. “Then, I’ll take my leave first. Brother Yun, do as you please.”

Then, he left happily.

Yun Ting walked to the door and stood there for a while. He decided to go to the Lu family’s restaurant and meet Fu Sisi in a chance encounter.

Fu Sisi was an eccentric person. She had only been here for a few days, but she had already gotten to know many sisters.

Coupled with her identity, the ladies from the various families worked even harder to invite her to various banquets.

Hence, she was rarely seen during this period.

—————

At the Yu Mansion.

Yu Mingyue was having breakfast with Mdm Yu and Old Master Yu when she suddenly saw a servant hand over a letter, saying that it was for Yu Mingyue.

Thinking that it was from some kid, Mdm Yu was elated and hurried Yu Mingyue to open it.

“Quick, take a look. Which young master wrote this for our Mingyue?”

“There’s no hurry.”

Yu Mingyue placed the envelope aside and continued eating.

Mdm Yu was so curious about the person who wrote the letter that she could not even finish her breakfast. Her gaze landed on the letter from time to time.

Afraid that his daughter would be embarrassed, Old Master Yu hurriedly scooped up the remaining porridge in his bowl and left.

“Your father has left. Open it quickly.”

If she met someone with a good family background, she would tell the Old Master directly and get someone to matchmake them.

Helpless, Yu Mingyue put down her chopsticks and opened the envelope.

After reading through the content, her lips curled up.

When Mdm Yu saw this expression, she mistook it for a letter from Yu Mingyue’s lover. She hurriedly asked, “Quick, tell Mother which family’s young master he is.”

“Mother can read it herself.”

Yu Mingyue raised her eyebrows and passed the letter over.

Mdm Yu received it and took a look. She did not know whether to be surprised or disappointed.

The name was Lu Sheng.

“So it’s Miss Lu. I thought it was a letter from your lover.”

She sighed softly and returned the letter to Yu Mingyue.

“Since Miss Lu asked me out for tea, I’ll take my leave first!”

Mdm Yu nodded slightly. “Go ahead.”

On the other side, Shi Yi had just entered when he saw Chu Sihan, Lu Sheng, Lu Zhou and the rest.

“Brother Chu, the Third Prince, Miss Lu!”

Shi Yi smiled and greeted the three of them. Then, he looked at Shangguan Dian and Lord Netherword with a doubtful expression.

“These two are…”

Chu Sihan introduced them. “These are Shangguan Dian and Tianxi, the Prince’s friends.”

“How should I address you, Young Master?” Shangguan Dian asked with a smile.

“I’m Shi Yi. Greetings, Lord Shangguan. Greetings, Young Master Tian.”

Shi Yi smiled, but he was puzzled.

This man called ‘Shangguan Dian’ seemed to be younger than him. Why did he call him ‘Young Master’?

“You’re welcome. Take a seat.”

Shangguan Dian was very friendly to everyone Lu Zhou knew.

Shi Yi had just sat down when Yun Ting walked in.

“Brother Yun, why are you here too?”

Shi Yi was surprised. He had thought that Yun Ting was going to find Fu Sisi.

Yun Ting greeted everyone and introduced himself to Shangguan Dian and Netherworld. Then, he sat down and asked Shi Yi,

“So, you changed your clothes again and again this morning because of the guests?”

He had thought that Shi Yi was here to see a lady. He did not expect them to be two unfamiliar men.

Shi Yi smiled embarrassedly and said, “It’s indeed for a guest, but she hasn’t arrived yet.”

“Not here yet?”

Yun Ting was stunned.

So, Shi Yi did not change his clothes because of Shangguan Dian and Tianxi?

Who was the other guest?

Lu Sheng glanced out of the window and stood up by chance. “Well, you guys chat first. I’ll greet a guest first.”

Then, she blinked at Shi Yi.

Before Shi Yi could react, Chu Sihan did.

He looked out of the window and saw Yu Mingyue walking over with an umbrella.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Shi Yi, who was still in a daze. “Fool, your crush is here.”

“What?”

Shi Yi was shocked and immediately sat up straight.

Yun Ting was a bit suspicious. He was about to ask who it was when he heard Lu Sheng walk to the door and shout with a smile, “Miss Yu, you’re here?”

Yu Mingyue smiled and said, “I heard that Miss Lu is looking for me, so I came over.”

“Please come in and take a seat!”

Lu Sheng invited her in and found an empty table for her to sit at.

Then, she went to the kitchen to brew a pot of tea before sitting opposite Yu Mingyue.

“It’s her?”

Yun Ting looked at Yu Mingyue for a while and suddenly remembered that she was the girl that he bumped into at Dongfang Mansion with Shi Yi.

So, Shi Yi paid so much attention to his outfit today because of this lady?

“What… what should I do?”

Shi Yi took a few deep breaths but was still very nervous.

“Stop acting like a daughter-in-law. Can you be more daring?”

Yun Ting’s face was full of disdain.

“Ha—”

Chu Sihan smiled coldly. “The pot calling the kettle black.”

Yun Ting was stunned. He coughed lightly and did not dare to speak again.

“Young Master likes that lady?” Shangguan Dian asked softly.

Lu Zhou narrowed his eyes and reminded Shi Yi. “Don’t believe anything he says. Since love comes from the heart, follow your heart.”

Shangguan Dian looked innocent.

He had not said anything yet. Why shouldn’t Shi Yi listen to him?

He spoke as if he wanted to break them up.

Shi Yi nodded. “Thank you, Third Prince, for your reminder!”

He looked at Yu Mingyue’s table. Lu Sheng happened to look over and waved at him.

Shi Yi pointed at himself and smiled.

He was about to get up when he saw Chu Sihan walk towards the table before him.

When Yun Ting saw this, he stood up and followed Chu Sihan.

Shi Yi was speechless.

Was she calling for them or him?

“Mingyue greets Lord Chu!”

Seeing Chu Sihan coming over, Yu Mingyue hurriedly stood up and bowed.

“Miss Yu, there’s no need to be so polite.”

Chu Sihan replied faintly and sat beside Lu Sheng.

“Why are you here?”

Lu Sheng asked softly.

Chu Sihan also replied in a low voice, “To support that fool, Shi Yi.”

Lu Sheng was speechless.

She smiled awkwardly at Yu Mingyue and quickly introduced Yun Ting to her. “This is Young Master Yun.”

Yu Mingyue nodded slightly and smiled faintly. “We’ve met once before.”

“Young Master Shi’s here. Take a seat.”

Lu Sheng saw Shi Yi from the corner of her eye and hurried him to sit beside Yu Mingyue.

“Miss, we meet again.”

After Shi Yi sat down, he greeted Yu Mingyue with a smile.

“Young Master, we meet again!”

Yu Mingyue smiled, her clear eyes bright.

Shi Yi’s heart raced, but he pretended to be calm and said, “I’m Shi Yi. May I know your name?”

“I suddenly remembered that I still have some unfinished business. Sheng Sheng, I’ll go back to the Chu Mansion first.”

Chu Sihan stood up and wanted to leave.

Yun Ting understood and hurriedly stood up. “I’ve been in Huang Yang Town for quite some time. I suddenly remembered that I haven’t greeted Matriarch yet. Brother Chu, I’ll accompany you to the Chu Mansion.”

“Okay.”

Seeing the duo leave, Lu Sheng could not help but raise her eyebrow.

She looked at the duo opposite her and smiled.

“I’m Yu Mingyue. Greetings, Young Master Shi!”

Yu Mingyue stood up and sent the two away before introducing herself to Shi Yi.

“I still have some work to do in the kitchen. Please feel free to tell me what you want to eat. Of course, if Miss Yu feels bored, you can take a walk in the backyard.”

“Okay.”

Although Yu Mingyue was doubtful, she did not ask further.

Lu Sheng should not have invited her here just for tea, right?

Instantly, only the two of them were left at the table. The atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Shi Yi coughed lightly and suggested to her, “Miss Yu, why don’t we take a walk in the backyard?”

Yu Mingyue turned to look at him and seemed to have sensed something.

However, she still nodded in agreement.

After the two of them entered the backyard, Lu Sheng walked out of the kitchen.

“Lu Sheng, bring this pot of wine to the table in the corner for Uncle.”

He Qin walked over with a pot of wine.

“Okay.”

Lu Sheng received the wine. As she was concerned about Shi Yi and Yu Mingyue, she did not notice the guest at the table.

When she placed the wine on the table, she was slightly stunned when the person spoke.

“Thank you.”

This voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like the voice of someone with a injured throat.

She looked up at that person.

However, she realized that this person was wearing black clothes and a black curtained hat. No one could see his face clearly.

There was a sword on the table in his left hand. The scabbard was engraved with a long and complicated pattern. It looked a bit strange.

“Dear guest, please enjoy!”

Afraid that she would attract his attention if she stayed too long, Lu Sheng spoke politely before leaving.

She did not notice that the moment she turned around, the man in black suddenly looked up and stared at her back with a ferocious smile.

“What a pretty girl. I’ll start with you tonight!”

The man in black said hoarsely before lowering his head to drink.

Lu Sheng felt a chill run down her spine. She turned back and glanced thoughtfully at the man in black before walking towards Lu Zhou and the rest.

The man in black’s gaze followed her. When he saw her sitting beside Lu Zhou, he could not help but frown.

“She’s actually one of the Third Prince’s men.”

His expression froze and his face under his curtained hat revealed an indignant expression.

Lu Zhou seemed to have sensed something and looked over indifferently. The man in black paused and hurriedly turned around.

“Master, there’s something strange about this person.”

Lu Sheng poured away her cold tea and spoke softly.

“Huh?”

Lu Zhou retracted his gaze and looked at her suspiciously.

Lu Sheng lowered her voice and continued, “His sword doesn’t seem to be simple. When I saw that sword, I kept feeling a little depressed.”

“Oh?”

Lu Zhou frowned. “Is there anything special?”

“There’s a strange pattern carved on the scabbard. I’ve never seen it before.”

“What’s weird?”

Shangguan Dian listened for a while before asking in a low voice.

Lu Zhou glanced at him and gestured for him to shut up. Then, he continued asking Lu Sheng, “Do you remember what the pattern looks like?”

“Yes!”

Lu Sheng said softly, “It looks like a black snake vine, but it’s different from a black snake vine.”

“Like a black snake vine?”

Lu Zhou pondered for a moment and said, “Why don’t you draw it out?”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly.

She wiped the table in front of her with a handkerchief and roughly traced the pattern on the table with tea.

Lu Zhou smiled faintly after seeing it. “It’s not a famous sword, but it has some background.”

When Shangguan Dian heard that, he also came over to take a look. However, he still looked confused.

“What’s his background?”

He looked up and asked Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou explained calmly, “This sword is called Yanzhuo. It was cast by a Fallen in the Immortal World. It’s carved with a flower vine from the Netherworld called Ghost Vine. Later, that Fallen was brought back by the Immortal World to be jailed. This sword was left behind in the mortal world.”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly. “So it’s a ghost vine! No wonder I felt that the pattern was a bit strange.”

Shangguan Dian pouted. “From the sound of it, this sword doesn’t seem to be anything good.”

Lu Zhou sneered. “Of course not. Otherwise, why would it be called Yanzhuo?”

On the other side, the man in black stored the remaining wine in a wine gourd. Then, he threw a piece of silver and stood up to leave.

Lu Sheng took out a talisman and bit her finger. Then, she casually pinched a talisman and tapped it.

A golden light flashed and entered that sword.

The man in black felt his arm go numb. He turned back and realized that no one was looking at him.

He frowned slightly and stood at his original spot for a while before striding away.

After the man in black left, Lu Sheng slammed the talisman on the table and the figure of the man in black appeared.

“What talisman is this?”

Shangguan Dian was surprised.

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “A Visual Communications Talisman. It’s of a higher grade than a Communications Talisman.”

“Why have I never heard of it?”

He had heard of a Communications Talisman before. He had almost never heard of a Visual Communications Talisman.

However, the phone Lu Zhou bought for him had this function.

Lu Zhou was silent for a while before saying in a low voice, “Of course you haven’t heard of it. She made it herself.”

His daughter was really capable in this aspect.

He did not know what she was thinking.

“Master, look!”

The man in black climbed over the wall and entered a courtyard before entering a room.

In the room, a man was standing in front of the window with his back facing the man in black.

After the man in black entered, he slowly turned around and his face appeared in front of Lu Sheng.

“Isn’t this His Highness, the Crown Prince?”

“Crown Prince?”

Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. He looked down at the table and realized that the person was indeed the Crown Prince.

“You’ve seen him before?”

Lu Zhou frowned slightly, not expecting Lu Sheng to know the Crown Prince.

Lu Sheng was stunned. “Didn’t I tell you that I’ve seen the Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the Eldest Prince before?”

“No.”

He only knew that she was exorcising demons with the State Minister.

Lu Sheng blinked. “Oh, maybe I forgot.”

Lu Zhou snorted and didn’t ask further. Instead, he mumbled suspiciously, “Why did this guy come to Huang Yang Town?”

“What’s a Crown Prince?”

Shangguan Dian suddenly asked.

Lu Sheng giggled.

Lu Zhou replied seriously, “He’s not a thing.”
