Chapter 57 (2/2)

Just as Zhu Minglang was about to pass through the willow forest, a woman with a paper umbrella on her shoulder appeared in his sight. She had a graceful figure, and was elegantly dressed, exuding beauty like that of a painting.

Zhu Minglang slowly walked past this woman. Her profile was indeed flawless, but Zhu Minglang pretended to not notice her.

Li Yunzi probably wouldn’t dress up like this, with a poetic and picturesque temperament… She’d be incomparably beautiful if she did dress up like that.

“A sense of familiarity at first sight, and in love with each other?” the woman spoke up, her gentle voice coming in a dignified tone.

Zhu Minglang pretended to be shocked, like a humble gentleman. He bowed with both hands held in front of him like a refined gentleman, greeting her, “Miss Nan Lingsha.”

“Did I say I am Nan Lingsha?” The woman slowly turned around, her beautiful smile carrying a natural charm.

“What a coincidence. Miss Nan is taking a walk here. I still have matters to attend to, please excuse me,” Zhu Minglang pretended to not hear her and quickly walked away.

“Stop,” the woman ordered.

“Aiya, Miss Nan Lingsha, we’re not very familiar with one another. We’re in the wild all alone; it’s inappropriate. I, Zhu Minglang, am already riddled with scandals,” Zhu Minglang said urgently.

Quickly run! Zhu Minglang increased his pace.

Li Yunzi had already said she wouldn’t appear at the Academy. This person could only be Nan Lingsha.

She had probably already heard of what he said in the lecture hall, which was obviously a different version from what he told her in the library.

“What did Li Yunzi tell you?” the woman questioned coldly.

Zhu Minglang didn’t answer her.

“She told you to watch out for me?” the woman asked again.

“No, but just think about it, miss. Most people can’t tell you and your sister apart. There are quite a few people coming and going on this path. If they see you and me standing here talking, who knows what kind of misunderstanding will pop up next. This matter is already very complicated. I’m only thinking of avoiding trouble,” Zhu Minglang explained.

“Wouldn’t that be better?” the woman smiled.

“What do you mean, better?”

“You’re the one who told the whole world that we’re in love with each other. Then wouldn’t me showing up here to show you concern be very normal?” The woman’s smile gradually grew brighter.

“Miss, I have nothing to do with you!” Zhu Minglang cried out loud.

“Others don’t think like you do. I’m tired of wearing a veil all the time. I can get some fresh air now. Come on, Zhu dear, I’ll accompany you to your men’s battlefield,” the woman raised her arm and tied up the green silk covering her face like a weeping willow.

Tying her hair up left Zhu Minglang even more speechless.

She was going to pretend to be Li Yunzi!

In fact, after she tied her hair up, her temperament was identical to Li Yunzi’s, not to mention their appearance.

With the same resplendent eyes and the same beautiful faces, Zhu Minglang couldn’t help taking a few steps back, deeply afraid that he wouldn’t be able to tell them apart if he looked any longer!
