Chapter 507: Watching the Show

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Two servants conjured using the talismans walked towards where Xiao Yue was.
One of them said, “Third Madam’s nephew is so handsome. I heard that he came back from studying abroad in America and his family is rich. He’s back to visit Third Madam this time. Third Madam seems very happy to see him.”
The other replied, “Of course she’s happy. Third Madam likes Young Master the most. Young Master is young and promising, and he’s so handsome. I wonder which woman is lucky enough to marry Young Master and become a wealthy young mistress.”
“It must be a lady of equal social status.”
“That’s hard to say. Third Madam values character the most. Besides, Third Madam is Master Li’s only senior. The Li family and Young Master’s family are both so rich. They don’t need Young Master’s family to form an alliance through marriage. As long as Young Master likes the girl, Third Madam will definitely support him.”
The two of them walked away.
Indeed, when Xiao Yue heard these words, a strong glint flashed across her eyes. She bit her lips and thought for a while before following quietly.
Xiao Yue secretly followed the two servants to Third Madam’s residence.
Xiao Yue was stunned to see the magnificent courtyard.
Then, she muttered excitedly, “This Third Madam must be of high status in the Li family to live in such a luxurious place. If I can become her niece-in-law… Hehe…”
After saying that, Xiao Yue quickly hid behind a tree by the wall. She took out some cosmetics and quickly applied some powder and lipstick on herself.
After she was done with her makeup, she even looked at the mirror narcissistically and said confidently, “Although I’m not as good-looking as Miss Chu and Teacher Wu, I’m not bad either. Maybe that young master likes my type.”
Not long after, the courtyard door was opened and a young man and woman walked out.
Chu Luo looked at the girl and frowned.
That person was actually Qing Ning, who Li Yan had forbidden from coming to the Li residence.
The man walking beside Qing Ning bore some resemblance to her. He was likely related to her by blood.
Chu Luo was a little surprised. She had only used the paper effigies to casually fabricate a person, but it turned out that there really was such a person.
At this moment, the man said to Qing Ning, “Sister, why do we have to go to the strawberry garden to pick strawberries ourselves? You’re not feeling well. When Aunt gets up, she’ll definitely lecture you again.”
“So we have to hurry up and pick the strawberries before Aunt wakes up.”
“Sister, you know that’s not what I meant.”
“Don’t worry. I’m much better now. It’s fine to pluck some strawberries.”
“But…” Just as the man finished speaking, he suddenly shouted in a certain direction, “Who’s there! Come out! ”
Xiao Yue watched as the man walked out of the courtyard and felt her heart skip a beat. This kind of tall, rich, and handsome man was her ideal husband.
Xiao Yue walked out from behind the tree and said shyly, “I… I’m Chu Luo’s friend. My name is Wang Xiaoyue. I’m lost.”
“You’re Chu Luo’s friend?” Qing Ning was a little surprised that the woman in front of her was Chu Luo’s friend. However, when she remembered that Master Li had said before not to let her come to the Li residence, she immediately became vigilant.
She planned to test the woman in front of her. “So you’re Chu Luo’s friend. Then why are you here? Did Chu Luo get the butler to arrange for you to stay nearby?”
“No, no. I lost my way and somehow ended up here.”
“You didn’t meet any bodyguards on patrol?”
“I did, but I have a poor sense of direction. I got lost again as I walked along the path pointed out by the bodyguards.”
Seeing how embarrassed Xiao Yue was, Qing Ning pursed her lips and asked calmly, “You’re not a student at Imperial University, are you? Chu Luo and I are from the same school. I don’t think I’ve seen you around campus.”
Xiao Yue’s heart skipped a beat. She was a little worried that the beauty in front of her would pursue the matter and expose her. Her mind raced and she said, “My older brother is from the Computer Science Department and is very close to Chu Luo. Chu Luo invited my older brother and the others here as guests this time. Coincidentally, I came to visit my older brother, so I followed him here.”
“What’s your brother’s name?”
“Tang Zhiyun. My brother’s name is Tang Zhiyun.”
Qing Yuan suddenly said in confusion, “Eh… Didn’t you say that your surname is Wang?”
Stunned, Xiao Yue quickly said, “My brother took my dad’s surname while I took after my mom’s surname.”
“I see. When did you come to the capital?”
“I’ve only been here for a few days.”
Since she had only been here for a few days, it probably meant that she wasn’t close to Chu Luo and had only come here to play with Tang Zhiyun.
Qing Ning was a little relieved, but she was still a little worried that Xiao Yue would go back and tell Chu Luo about her being here. She planned to build a good relationship with Xiao Yue first before thinking of a reason to persuade her not to tell Chu Luo about seeing her here.
At the thought of this, Qing Ning’s expression immediately became much friendlier. She said, “Xiao Yue, you must be tired from walking for so long. Why don’t you go in and take a seat?”
Xiao Yue secretly glanced at Qing Yuan and asked eagerly, “Erm… will I be disturbing you and Third Madam?”
“No, it’s fine. You can come to our courtyard.”
This was exactly what Xiao Yue wanted. She quickly nodded and deliberately put on a shy expression. “Thank you.”
“No need for thanks. But it’s almost breakfast. Do you want to call your brother first?”
Xiao Yue definitely wouldn’t call him. “No need. I told my brother when I came out. Besides, he and his pals are glued to their computers. I doubt he’ll miss me.”
Qing Ning felt that Xiao Yue was a girl who had been neglected by her older brother and was deliberately running around to attract his attention. She was pleased with this situation. “Then let’s go. We can eat breakfast together.”
After saying that, she pulled Xiao Yue affectionately into the courtyard.
After entering, Xiao Yue asked, “I still don’t know your name, Brother.”
“My name is Qing Yuan.”
“What a nice name.”
…
Chu Luo waited until they couldn’t hear anything before jumping down from a tree some distance away.
She looked at the courtyard door in front of her and smiled coldly.
At this moment, her phone in her pocket vibrated.
Chu Luo took out her phone and saw that it was Li Yan. She immediately swiped the answer button and said happily, “Yan, guess where I am now.”
Li Yan: “Where? I’ll pick you up.”
Chu Luo said, “I’m outside your third aunt’s courtyard.”
Li Yan didn’t ask why she went there and simply nodded. “I’ll drive over to pick you up.”
Chu Luo replied, “Okay.”
After hanging up, Chu Luo made the two servants conjured using the talismans turn into little paper effigies and followed Qing Ning and the rest into the living room where they lived.
At this moment, Qing Ning left to wash her hands, leaving Xiao Yue and Qing Yuan sitting there.
Xiao Yue looked at Qing Yuan with a scorching gaze. She sat down beside Qing Yuan and asked delicately, “Brother Qing Yuan, you’re so handsome. Your girlfriend must be very beautiful too.”
Qing Yuan obviously saw through Xiao Yue’s thoughts. The corners of his lips curled up and he raised his hand to brush his fringe dashingly. “I don’t have a girlfriend.”
A smitten glint immediately appeared in Xiao Yue’s eyes. She deliberately said in disbelief, “How is that possible? Could it be that your standards are too high and you don’t fancy ordinary girls?”
As she spoke, she tugged at her coat and looked very hot.
Based on Qing Yuan’s experience, Xiao Yue definitely had something up her sleeve. Moreover, she was the flirtatious sort. Hence, he suggested, “The air conditioner in the living room is very strong. Why don’t you take off your coat?”
Xiao Yue nodded in embarrassment and took off her coat.
Unexpectedly, she was indeed wearing a tight low-collar sweater inside. The collar was so low that one could see what one shouldn’t see.
Most importantly, because she had been sweating from the heat just now, at this moment, there was a bead of sweat on her neck.
Qing Yuan’s gaze subconsciously followed.
Xiao Yue said in embarrassment, “I’m sweating. I didn’t bring any tissues with me. Brother Qingyuan, can you give me a tissue?”
Qing Yuan’s gaze darkened. He retrieved a box of tissues and took one out.
Xiao Yue reached out to take it.
Qing Yuan raised his hand that was holding the tissue and raised his eyebrows at her. “I’ll help you wipe it.”
At this moment, Qing Ning’s surprised voice suddenly came from behind them. “What… are you doing?”
A shy blush appeared on Xiao Yue’s face, but she was extremely annoyed. Why did this person have to come at this time? How annoying!
Qing Yuan turned to Qing Ning and smiled. “Sister, there’s sweat on Sister Xiao Yue’s face. I just want to help her wipe it off.”
Qing Ning looked at Qing Yuan’s frivolous expression and knew his intentions towards Xiao Yue.
She thought that it wouldn’t be a bad idea if her younger brother managed to coax Xiao Yue. After today, after she left the Li residence, she would just directly deny whatever Xiao Yue said.. Master Li and Chu Luo also had no evidence to say anything.
