Chapter 163 You were the one that sent me that jade bracelet, right? (1)

Truly shameless!

This young man, who had shamelessly boasted the name of Wu Yanzhu, amicably extended his hand to Ye Zhen.

This young man had the fair-skinned and slender hands of someone born into riches. The joints of his hands were distinct. They looked nothing like Lu Beichuans hands, which looked strong and powerful. Lu Shaoyans hands were lazily stretched out without a hint of strength behind them.

However, people who knew how to hide their skills were often the most formidable ones.

Lu Shaoyans mother, Old Master Lus third wife, was twenty years younger than Old Master Lu. She was only with him for ten years before going far away and never stepping foot on this coastal city.

In the novel, Lu Shaoyan had strongly inherited all of his mothers beauty. It was precisely because of his looks, which didnt show potential for aggressiveness, that caused Old Master Lu to cherish and dote on him.

Lu Shaoyan didnt have many hobbies. Like other rich second generation young masters, he liked street racing, drinking, and hanging out at clubs. He didnt attend to proper duties, but he was very loyal to his friends and generous with them. After over ten years of this, his reputation as the hedonistic son of rich parents was firmly cemented.

Old Master Lu loved his youngest son. If his son wanted to live a hedonistic lifestyle, let him live it. Anyways, the Lus were rich enough to support Lu Shaoyans lifestyle.

With Lu Shaoyan having this type of character and an easy-going temperament, even Lu Shaoren, who was now in jail, never took him seriously and had eliminated him as a possible competitor for inheriting the family.

As for the kidnapping that Lu Beichuan had mentioned, Ye Zhen had no knowledge of this. After all, this matter hadnt been mentioned in the novel.

Looking at the fair-skinned hands stretched out towards herself, Ye Zhen smiled and held those hands. Hi, Im Ye Zhen.

Tao zhi yao yao. Qi ye zhen zhen. Ye Zhen is a good name!

For a period of time, Old Master Lu had kept Lu Shaoyan by his side to make sure he studied certain classical books. Although Lu Shaoyan had lived abroad for several years, the knowledge from those classical books had sunk into his bone, and he had a habit of blurting out idioms and poems.

So does uncle know what that poem means?

(T/N: Tao zhi yao yao. Qi ye zhen zhen. These are lines from a poem that praises a bride for her virtues and says shell bring happiness to her family.)

Lu Shaoyan slightly furrowed his brow. He didnt look that embarrassed. He let go of Ye Zhens hands. Smiling mischievously, he said, Little Zhenzhen, we just met. You shouldnt bully me. Ive been living abroad for over a decade.

Ye Zhen truly felt that her own cultivation in literature was pretty good.

After saying that, Lu Shaoyan finally looked at Lu Beichuan. Smiling, he gave Lu Beichuan a hug. Beichuan, its only been a year since we last saw each other and you got married and had a kid in that time. You totally caught me off guard.

Perhaps, it was because Lu Shaoyan had brought Lin Zhan with him or Ye Zhens words had made him more alert, Lu Beichuan realized there was something wrong after careful consideration. His smile wasnt as wide as before. After their hug ended, he said in a neutral tone, I sent you a message, but you never responded.

Lu Shaoyan shrugged. I must have been too busy then.

Lu Beichuan glanced at Lin Zhan, who was still standing behind Lu Shaoyan. Why is he here? I didnt invite him.

Lu Shaoyan didnt explain. He only patted Lu Beichuans shoulder and said, Ill explain it to you later. Hes someone I brought. You wont even give your uncle this little bit of face?

It could be seen that Lu Beichuan wasnt very willing to give Lu Shaoyan face when it came to this matter.

On the side, the old butler smiled and said, Old Master Lu has been waiting inside a long time to see you. Second Master, you should go in and chat with him.

His words successfully rescued them from the awkward mood.

As the group walked inside, Ye Zhen glanced at Lin Zhan, who had been silently following Lu Shaoyan this entire time. He wasnt self-conscious, and there was no trace of embarrassment in his expression.

Actually, this was quite strange. Although Lu Shaoyan was Lu Beichuans opponent in the novel, he wasnt Lin Zhans ally. The three of them should have antagonistic relationships with the attitude that only one of us can live. Why were Lin Zhan and Lu Shaoyan working together now?

Lu Beichuan was holding Ye Zhens hand. Seeing that Ye Zhen seemed lost in thought, he lightly squeezed her hand. Ye Zhen returned to her senses and tightened her grip on Lu Beichuans hand in response.

As they were passing through the lawn, Lu Shaoyan exchanged greetings with many people. He seemed very familiar with them.

The more that Ye Zhen saw, the more her apprehension grew.
