Chapter 55 V2 : A Successful Return (1/2)

“That b*stard, living in plenty without appreciating!” Zhuang Weixian laughed and shook his head, again and again in envy, jealousy, and sympathy.

“Who are you? Why are you here?” Still having the smile on his face, his eyes suddenly met with a woman who stood in front of him while staring at him with eyes full on alert.

Zhuang Weixian could not help but be startled and blurted out, “And who might you be?” The girl did not belong to the Zhuang household.

She was Liu Ya. The mistresses and missies had the Zhuang family’s own servants to serve them while they enjoyed themselves in the garden of flowers. Those servants who followed their masters over were led by the Zhuang family’s head servant to play nearby. Liu Ya accidentally spotted a person by the flower patch, and with a moment of curiosity, she went and approach him. Seeing that this person’s eyes were peered towards the mistresses and missies in the garden, and had a foolish smile on his face, Liu Ya became furious.

“That doesn’t matter!” Liu Ya raised her chin and spoke contemptuously, “You lecher, how dare you peek here! If the mistresses and missies knew about it, they’ll be sure to expose you! Although your looks may seem ordinary, but I’m sure your heart is filthy! Leave quickly, otherwise, I’ll call for people!”

Lecher? Ordinary? Filthy heart? Zhuang Weixian could not help but laugh. If his mother were to hear this, how furious would she become?

However, he was feeling angry too!

“Do I really look that ordinary?” Zhuang Weixian grunted and rubbed his chin. His appearance shouldn’t be far from Shi Fengju, right? No, definitely better than him by a little!

Shameless!

Liu Ya glared sternly at him and spoke impatiently, “Who cares about how you look, leave quickly! Otherwise, I’ll really call for someone! And when that happens, don’t blame me if you get battered like a pig head! You have a vibe that reeks of books, so know when to retreat!”

Zhuang Weixian laughed, but suddenly wanted to play a jest and he smiled. Taking two steps back from Liu Ya, he gave a greeting and spoke, “I shall not hide it from you, but I’m currently lost in this area. Just now, if I were any rude towards you, I hope that you will forgive me! I wonder, do you know the way around here?”

His sudden transformation startled Liu Ya and she quickly took two steps back before stuttering, “This, I, I’m not someone from this household. Even I do not know my way around. Where do you wish to go? Maybe I can help you ask someone who knows the way?”

Zhuang Weixian secretly laughed and he looked up to see three words “Lin Feng Pavillion” inscribed on a board which hung above the west pavilion and he spoke casually, “Young Master Zhuang has arranged to meet me at Lin Feng Pavillion.”

Liu Ya was surprised for a moment and squinted at him, “Are you really looking for Lin Feng Pavillion?”

“Yes!” Zhuang Weixian nodded lightly. Enduring the laugher within him, he sighed, “It’s a pity that the garden in this household is so huge that I’ve been trying to find it for quite some time already!”

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

Liu Ya grumbled and spoke bitterly at him, “Stop peeking at those missies in your free time! Isn’t that Lin Feng Pavillion? Those three large words, don’t tell me you didn’t see it!”

This time, it was Zhuang Weixian who was surprised. Having his joke exposed made him somewhat embarrassed. Giving a dry laugh, he stammered a little, “You, you can read!”

Liu Ya grunted, “Yes! Is reading so amazing? Don’t think that because you’ve read a book or two, you can be so unrestrained! You think others are foolish? I think you’re certainly not a good person!” With that, she quickly glanced behind him. That attracted Zhuang Weixian to turn his head to the back, and taking this chance, she quickly turned and ran away.

Fortunately, no one had spotted her! Otherwise, if someone were to see her together with a man in the Zhuang family’s garden, it wasn’t just her face, but her Old Mistress and Young Mistress who would be put to shame!

Seriously! Why did she have to be so curious about someone else’s business!

Zhuang Weixian understood he had been fooled and he turned back again, only to see the back of the girl as she ran. He could not help but smile while shaking his head. He was wise himself, but to be fooled by a girl, seriously! Just which family’s girl did she belong to; that courage of hers was not small.

Seeing that the mistresses and missies were all getting up, he supposed they were heading to Yuhua Pavilion to watch a play. With that, Zhuang Weixian understood that the task assigned to him was somewhat complete and he brushed his sleeves before turning to leave.

Now at where the mistresses and missies were, Sang Wan’s agile hands to calculate using the abacus stunned many and while the crowd were praising her, the four poetry were returned just in time after the judging by the few gentlemen. Old Mistress Zhuang’s eyes glistened again with huge hope that Tang Yuzhen could emerge victorious. But who would have known that all three men would choose Sang Wan’s work unanimously? Old Mistress Zhuang forced a smile as she rewarded the bottle of perfume personally to Sang Wan. “Really, you’ve made us fully convinced of your ability! This perfume is truly meant for you! Come, try it a little to see if it’s of your taste!”
