Rural Romantic Life

Chapter 323 A Quiet and Stunning Beauty

By the time Lu Yang and Chu Yuyao drove back to the Chu family in the ancient city, it was already dark.

After enjoying the banquet specially arranged by the Chu family, Chu Yu instructed his steward to arrange a guest room for him.

However?

He was just about to rest when Chu Yuyao sneaked into his room like a thief, saying somewhat awkwardly, "Xiaoyang, um... my best friend just texted me, asking me to go out and have some fun. She also wants to meet you, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang did not refuse and said, "No problem, let's go then!"

Chu Yuyao quickly grabbed Lu Yang's arm and pointed to the window, saying, "Xiao Yang, we can't go through the main gate. It's so late. If my dad finds out I secretly ran away with you, he'll definitely break my legs!"

The Chu family had very strict family discipline.

If it weren't for her best friend's special invitation after returning from the capital, Chu Yuyao would never have gone out for a party so late at night.

Helpless, Lu Yang had no choice but to grab Chu Yuyao's slender waist and, with a swift movement, the two of them flew out of the window like two birds without disturbing any of the Chu family's guards, and left the Chu family manor.

During the process, Chu Yuyao almost cried out in surprise. She couldn't believe that Lu Yang had actually carried her as if they were truly flying.

Shocked, yet also incredibly excited, she couldn't help but tightly embrace Lu Yang's strong body.

After landing, Chu Yuyao couldn't help but say to Lu Yang, "Xiao Yang, I also want to cultivate martial arts, but I was diagnosed with no talent for it since I was a child. Do you have any other methods?"

Chu Yuyao truly envied and longed for the feeling of flying in the void like Lu Yang, feeling almost like a real immortal.

Not only that, but who in the world wouldn't want to truly live like that?

Lu Yang naturally understood Chu Yuyao's strong feelings and nodded, saying, "No problem at all. Once the Phoenix Secret Realm opens, I'll take you in directly and help you cultivate your martial arts!"

Lu Yang found it hard to believe that Chu Yuyao possessed the peerless Nihuang bloodline, as she had no martial arts talent whatsoever. However, considering the hidden nature of the Nihuang bloodline, he was relieved.

The two took a taxi to the night market in the university town of the ancient city, where Chu Yuyao's best friend arranged to meet them at the entrance of the night market.

As soon as the two arrived at the gate, Lu Yang spotted a tall, stunning woman in a white Miu Miu dress waving excitedly at Chu Yuyao: "Yuyao, hurry up, I'm here!"

Upon seeing this, Chu Yuyao quickly grabbed Lu Yang's hand and walked briskly toward the stunning woman.

Upon approaching, the stunning woman noticed Lu Yang's presence, especially when she saw Chu Yuyao holding his large hand. She looked Lu Yang up and down and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yuyao, is this... your boyfriend?"

The stunning woman was also the daughter of a wealthy family in the ancient city. Although her family was not as powerful as the Chu family, which was among the eight great families, the Shen family she belonged to was also a powerful family.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuyao blushed slightly, but nodded without any hesitation, saying, "Wenjing, his name is Lu Yang, and he is indeed my boyfriend. You can call him Xiao Yang from now on!"

Then Chu Yuyao introduced Shen Wenjing to Lu Yang, saying, "Xiao Yang, this is my best friend, her name is Shen Wenjing. You can call her Wenjing like I do from now on!"

Lu Yang extended a large hand and politely said to Shen Wenjing, "Um... Wenjing, hello!"

Shen Wenjing stared at Lu Yang with a turbulent feeling in her heart, because she knew that Chu Yuyao had a domineering fiancé, but now the other party dared to say that Lu Yang was her boyfriend, which really shocked and surprised her.

She paused for a moment, then smiled sweetly and extended her hand to shake Lu Yang's large hand briefly, saying, "Um... Xiao Yang... it's nice to meet you!"

Afterwards, the three of them went into a small hot pot and skewers shop in the night market and found a seat.

The two girls have been best friends since childhood, and during their university years, they loved eating at this hidden gem of a hot pot and skewers restaurant, which is run by a middle-aged couple.

The taste was excellent, and Lu Yang couldn't help but praise it after tasting it.

only?

Just as the three were enjoying their meal, several tattooed thugs suddenly walked in through the shop entrance. One of them, the leader, held out his hand to the shop owner, who said, "Old Mo, it's time to pay this month's gift money, three thousand yuan in total!"

Upon hearing this, the male boss was startled and asked, "Brother Xiaolong, isn't our monthly gift money 800 yuan? How come it suddenly became 3,000 yuan!"

Although the night market has a large flow of people and their shops do good business, they can still make some money every month. However, the sudden need to spend more than two thousand yuan still made him feel reluctant and angry.

The tattooed thug known as "Little Dragon" sneered, "Just pay up the amount I told you to, why are you making so many demands?"

"Do you really dare to disobey?"

Upon hearing this, the proprietress couldn't help but question, "Brother Xiaolong, is it normal for all the stalls in the night market to suddenly increase the gift money to three thousand dollars?"

Looking at the still-attractive proprietress, Brother Long teased, "You've hit the nail on the head. But to tell you the truth, the share for everyone else is still 800 yuan, only your share for the hot pot has increased to 3,000 yuan!"

Then, Little Dragon continued with a mocking tone, "I say, don't you guys know the specific reason?"

Upon hearing this, the couple's faces immediately turned extremely ugly.

After being reminded, they all knew the specific reason: Brother Long's older brother, Brother Da Long, had taken a liking to their beautiful daughter. One day, he suddenly came to the shop with a lot of gifts to propose marriage. They disagreed, but Brother Da Long held a grudge and sent Brother Xiao Long tonight to collect more than two thousand yuan from them as a wedding gift.

Moreover, it still costs more than two thousand yuan more every month.

Little Dragon suddenly sneered, "If you don't want to spend over two thousand yuan more on wedding gifts every month, I advise you two to be smart and marry your precious daughters off to our Big Dragon!"

"What's wrong with our Brother Long? As long as your precious daughter marries him, she'll live a life of luxury from now on. And you two won't dare let anyone bully you anymore, and you won't have to pay any wedding gifts. On the contrary, our Brother Long will even give you two a million. Isn't that a tremendous blessing for you?"

"How can you be so ungrateful?"
