Chapter 1397: 216, Watch the opera (update 13)
Lin Yuan sneered inwardly, having already figured out what those young girls were up to. It seems not only the news about her opening a restaurant had spread, but also her close relationship with Xia Zheng.
"I knew it, why did so many people come to our house today!" She realized they all came because of Xia Zheng!
Lady Liu also noticed the intentions of these young ladies and hurriedly urged Lin Yuan, "There are quite a few people today, and your aunts are overwhelmed. You should go and help out, see if there’s anything you can do. Be extra careful and don’t just play around."
After speaking, she mouthed the words "don’t be soft" to Lin Yuan and then squinted, signaling her to hurry out.
Lin Yuan felt amused. Although she trusted Xia Zheng’s character, she didn’t have the heart to let down her mother’s intentions, so she nodded and stood up.
However, those women certainly didn’t want to let her leave so smoothly, pulling her back and saying they had more to talk about, effectively preventing her from leaving.
If Lin Yuan initially didn’t want to fuss with these women, she was now truly annoyed. What, your daughters try to seduce my man outside, and you still won’t let me go?
With a cold laugh, Lin Yuan unapologetically grabbed the wrist of the mother of the first girl who had left the room. She seemed obedient and sweetly said, "I’ll be back soon," before the woman turned pale with cold sweat forming on her forehead.
After shaking off the woman’s hand, Lin Yuan gracefully left. Yet, the woman behind couldn’t feel her own hand or understand why it had been let go.
It was indeed a bitter situation.
Lady Liu, watching her distressed state, felt a rush of pleasure and hooked her lips slightly. She responded to the women around her half-heartedly, her eyes darting outside.
When Lin Yuan left the room, she searched among a group of men and indeed saw two women’s figures disappearing quickly at the doorway.
Lin Yuan sneered and followed through the crowd.
To the east of the Liu family’s place was an open space, usually used to store firewood and such. At that moment, several horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts were parked there, including the carriage her family had traveled in.
Beside the carriage, Xia Zheng was leaning on the carriage canopy, his back facing outside, revealing a perfectly chiseled profile.
Behind Xia Zheng were those young ladies who had just excused themselves from the room. All were facing away, completely unaware of a woman who was silently watching them at the doorway.
Lin Yuan crossed her arms, lazily leaned against the wall, and slightly curved her lips in a shallow smile, watching the drama unfold with great interest, as if the women weren’t trying to seduce her man.
The first woman to come out spoke, "This young master looks somewhat unfamiliar. Are you also from Liu Family Village?"
Her voice was soft, completely different from how she spoke in the room, almost making one think it was another person altogether!
Xia Zheng, still nonchalantly leaning against the carriage with his flawless profile devastatingly handsome, responded, "Ah, do you find me unfamiliar? Perhaps!"
The woman’s heart raced, and the few who followed also clutched their chests; his voice was so melodious and gentle, incredibly charming.
"Do you sound like you’re from the Capital city?" a little girl blurted out before another woman could speak, earning herself a fierce glare from the woman.
The little girl didn’t find the glare frightening at all and returned an eye roll, obviously, there was no sisterly affection to speak of in front of a handsome man.
Xia Zheng’s voice grew louder, "Ah! My lady, you have great ears. Have you been to the Capital city as well?"
This comment left the little girl speechless, she had never been to the Capital city; she had just overheard her own mother asking Lin Yuan about it a moment ago.
Leaning against the corner, Lin Yuan curled her lips boredly and yawned softly. This show was too boring, seducing men one by one like this? If it were her, she would just strip, throw herself at him, and then have a three-hundred-round battle to make an unforgettable impression that no man could resist.
Meanwhile, a few girls were chatting blandly, and Xia Zheng’s tone began to shift from tender to impatient, exploding when one girl asked, "What kind of woman do you like?"
"Hey! How much longer are you planning to watch? My arms and neck are going numb!"
His sudden shout startled the girls.
But they were even more shocked when they followed Xia Zheng’s glance and turned their heads to see the boss herself had arrived!
Lin Yuan, still bored, yawned and dug her finger in her ear before slowly sauntering over. As she walked, she commented casually, "I was just hoping you could put on a good show for me. But after waiting so long, all I got was nothing, just ’young master’ this and ’young master’ that, chatting away. So boring!"
Finally, the girls realized that Lin Yuan had been watching all along but had kept quiet.
As Lin Yuan slowly made her way forward, her expression unchanging, everyone felt an overpowering presence about her, an absolute domination over the "other women". What was this? Yes, it was the absolute superiority of a ’wife’ over the ’mistresses’!
Mistresses? The girls were shocked by their own thoughts. Why think of the word ’mistress’ when she wasn’t even betrothed, let alone married, and yet they had naturally acknowledged Lin Yuan’s position as the wife?
"Yo, aren’t you the sisters who just said you needed to visit the restroom? What, is this your first time at our place, can’t find the restroom? Tsk, tsk, but this doesn’t look like a restroom, so open, not at all secluded, unless..."
Lin Yuan looked around and raised her voice, "Unless, my sisters are used to using the restroom in such an openly trafficked, barrier-free place?"
Pfft!
Several people couldn’t help but burst into laughter, not just Xia Zheng.
The faces of those girls turned pale as they looked around helplessly. Could it be, could it be that when they were seducing Xia Zheng not only Lin Yuan saw them but so did others?
Lin Yuan’s lips curled up, and she kicked the carriage Xia Zheng had been leaning against, her tone full of laughter, "Alright! Eavesdropping and couldn’t even keep it quiet, chuckling out loud now!"
The girls couldn’t help but step back, astonished as they looked at the carriage, was there someone inside?
