Chapter 74 - What About You?
“Did the lord really promise that?”
Lu Sheng widened her beautiful eyes and asked Shi Yi.
Shi Yi blinked at her and proudly said, “I had the honor of hearing it with my own ears.”
Cupping her face with both hands, Lu Sheng gazed at Chu Sihan and said with a smile, “One must be very happy being the Lord’s wife. I wonder which lady will benefit from this in the future!”
Yun Ting looked at Chu Sihan in surprise.
He had thought that the two of them were close to entering the bridal chamber.
He did not expect Chu Sihan to have someone whom he could not settle.
His lips curled into a faint smile. It was unknown if it was a teasing smile or a mocking one.
Shi Yi was about to say something when Yun Ting kicked him.
He was a smart person. Upon hearing Lu Sheng’s words and seeing Chu Sihan’s slightly gloomy expression, he knew that his Brother Chu was in love.
“Miss Lu is right!” Shi Yi nodded his head in agreement. “You have no idea how many girls in Xuan Yue Country secretly admire Brother Chu. As long as he’s willing, there will definitely be a lot of girls rushing to marry him.”
As his brother, he had to help him.
Lu Sheng pursed her lips, her expression unhappy. “That’s true. Lord, you’re a rare talent in our generation. Any girl would probably admire you.”
“My legs feel numb after sitting for too long.”
Yun Ting tactfully stood up and pulled Shi Yi along. “Brother Shi, go out with me for a walk.”
“Okay!”
Shi Yi smiled as he stood up. He helped Yun Ting out of the pavilion and the both of them walked far away.
Lu Sheng was stunned. Didn’t they not catch up on old times with Chu Sihan yet?
“Why did they…”
“What about you?”
Before she could finish his sentence, Chu Sihan interrupted her.
“Huh?”
Lu Sheng was stunned and could not react in time.
“You said that I’m a rare talent whom all ladies would probably admire. What about you?”
He repeated her words expressionlessly, but his eyes betrayed him as there was a hint of anticipation and nervousness.
Lu Sheng was stunned. She stared at him blankly and was speechless for a long time.
In the pavilion, an awkward atmosphere spread.
After a while, she coughed lightly and stood up. “Lord, I ate too much on the streets just now, so I’m a bit full now. I won’t be eating dinner later. I’ll be leaving first.”
Then, she disappeared like the wind.
Chu Sihan stared at the direction where she left with a gloomy gaze.
Was the girl shy, or was he… rejected?
It’s alright. There’s still a long way to go.
“Hey, Brother Chu, are you serious?” Shi Yi jogged forward and asked suspiciously, “What did you say that made the girl run away in a hurry?”
He was about to greet Lu Sheng earlier, but she escaped without even glancing at him.
“Nothing.”
He retracted his gaze and replied indifferently.
Yun Ting returned to his seat and smiled faintly. He poured away the cold tea in his cup, poured hot tea again, and took a sip.
Chu Sihan suddenly looked up at him. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “How do I know if a lady likes you too?”
“You’re asking him? Ha —” Shi Yi laughed coldly.
What would a boring person get from another boring person?
He was an experienced playboy, yet he was being ignored. What was Brother Chu thinking?
Chu Sihan’s gaze shifted and he frowned. “Then, you tell me?”
“I’m not going to say it.”
Hah! Why didn’t he ask him directly just now?
Did he really think he didn’t have a temper?
Chu Sihan said, “Then, shut up.”
Shi Yi was speechless.
