Chapter 239 Just pretend you don't know.
Su Mowan, accompanied by Shen Murui and a maid, went to the guest room in the next courtyard.
Lu Yifeng was quite polite and sent two maids to serve him.
Shen Murui felt extremely guilty as she watched the two maids bustling around making her bed and fetching water.
Taking her in was already a great trouble for the people, and knowing that the owner of the courtyard was not happy, she dared not ask anyone to serve her.
Just as she was about to say something, Su Mowan pulled her aside and whispered, "Just stay here and relax. The owner of this courtyard owes me a huge favor, so don't be polite with him!"
Shen Murui opened her almond-shaped eyes slightly, clearly not quite believing it.
If there really was a huge favor to do, why would they have looked so reluctant just now?
Su Mowan knew that Shen Murui had seen Lu Yifeng's bad attitude, so she leaned close to Shen Murui's ear and said, "Actually, this young master Lu has a very good heart, but he's a bit strange. The happier he is inside, the uglier he looks on his face, like he's stolen his wife!"
"..."
"So don't take it to heart. His behavior just now proves that he's very hospitable and just happy."
"..."
Shen Murui remained silent, taking it as fact.
The two maids, having finished their tasks, came over to invite Shen Murui to wash up.
Su Mowan said to the two smiling maids, "This young lady will probably be staying here for five or six days. I'll have to trouble you two to take good care of her during this time."
The two maids knew Su Mowan's identity, so they quickly said, "No trouble at all, as long as you don't mind our clumsiness, Miss!"
Alright, Su Mowan finished giving her instructions, then gave Shen Murui a few more words of advice, and finally assured her that she would take good care of Xiaoyun and bring her out when the time came.
Shen Murui gave a grateful smile.
Knowing it was getting late, and that Su Mowan had been climbing up and down the mountain with her all day and was probably tired, Shen Muyue told Su Mowan to go back and rest, and that she didn't need to worry about her.
Su Mowan took her leave and walked out of the courtyard where the guest rooms were located.
To everyone's surprise, as soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, they saw a figure waiting at the gate, leaning against the corridor.
Su Mowan smiled and raised an eyebrow.
"Why didn't Young Master Yu go to rest? Does he intend to settle a score with me?"
Yinshuang, who was following behind, was unaware of what had just happened between the two. Upon hearing this, she frowned and wondered, "When did Consort Su and Young Master Yu become enemies?"
Yu Lin raised an eyebrow: "I have something to ask you. What is your relationship with the Xiaoyao Sect?"
When asked what her relationship was with the Xiaoyao Sect, she replied...
Instead of answering, Su Mowan asked, "Then what is the relationship between Young Master Yu and Young Master Lu?"
She was uncooperative and quite talkative, so Yu Lin frowned: "You just need to answer my questions, you don't need to ask anything else."
He really is an old man, speaking so bluntly.
Su Mowan felt that she had been a bit too heavy-handed just now, which had upset the person and caused them to treat her so badly.
So she said in a gentle tone, "I thought you and Young Master Lu were very good friends. If you want to know what my relationship is with the Xiaoyao Sect, you should ask Young Master Lu. I'm sure he won't hide it from you."
Yu Lin knew that Lu Yifeng and Murong Jing were somewhat involved, but he didn't know the details. After hearing Su Mowan's words, he stopped asking.
He went straight to the most important question: "How do you know the internal energy cultivation method of the Xiaoyao Sect?"
This startled Su Mowan quite a bit.
Having no idea what kind of cultivation technique she was using, she asked in bewilderment, "How do you know it's a cultivation technique from the Free and Unfettered Sect?"
Yu Lin narrowed his eyes. Of course he knew the internal energy cultivation method of the Xiaoyao Sect, but he would never tell Su Mowan how he knew it.
"You only asked whether you stole someone else's skills?"
"Stealing a master? Don't make it sound so serious, brother! Let's not even talk about whether I'm using the internal energy cultivation method of the Free and Unfettered Sect. Even if I am, can you guarantee that this so-called internal energy cultivation method of the Free and Unfettered Sect was actually from the Free and Unfettered Sect a hundred years ago, or even longer? Couldn't I have learned it from other legitimate successors?"
Yu Lin: "..."
Yin Shuang, whose back half was covered by Su Mowan, smiled silently. This statement was truly... insightful!
I reckon only Consort Su could have said that.
Yu Lin was also swayed by her words. He frowned and pondered for a while, feeling that although Su Mowan's statement was a bit shameless, it was not impossible to investigate it seriously.
Just then, Lu Yifeng, dressed in blue, came over. He was puzzled to see Yu Lin there as well.
"Do you know?"
Su Mowan smiled and said, "Yes, I met Young Master Yu when I came to invite you to perform the autopsy. Now, Young Master Yu has taken the initiative to come and catch up with us."
"..."
Young Master Yu, who was supposed to "take the initiative to reminisce," said that he really didn't want to, as there was nothing left to reminisce about.
Lu Yifeng approached, looked Su Mowan up and down, and then made a request: "Cover your eyes so I can take a look."
Su Mowan remained still, and Yu Lin watched quietly as well.
Lu Yifeng urged, "Please, Consort Su."
Why are you asking me to come? Why are you covering my eyes for no reason? Does Lu Yifeng intend to kiss Young Master Yu?
There's no need to rush. Just wait until she leaves.
Thinking of this, Su Mowan glanced at the two of them and found that they were both good-looking. To be honest, they were quite a good match.
In addition, the fact that Young Master Yu had asked so anxiously about the Xiaoyao Sect's inner cultivation method just now made it impossible for her not to overthink things.
It's true what they say, you see everything as gay through a BL lens!
Despite her thoughts, as Lu Yifeng and Yu Lin felt uneasy about her strange gaze, Su Mowan raised her hand and covered her eyes.
It was covered up completely, without leaving a single gap.
She sensed Lu Yifeng suddenly move closer, but then he made no further move and fell silent.
As she was pondering this, Lu Yifeng stepped back and then suddenly laughed.
Yinshuang probably already guessed what Lu Yifeng meant by that action, but she couldn't stop him, so she could only watch helplessly as Lu Yifeng leaned forward, looking left and right.
Viewed from various angles.
When Lu Yifeng finally stepped back and smiled, Yinshuang knew that she had been exposed.
Su Mowan, who was covering her eyes, also felt something was wrong and took her hands down.
Seeing Lu Yifeng staring at her with such a strange smile, Su Mowan blinked in confusion.
"Young Master Lu, why are you laughing so maniacally? Could you have taken the wrong medicine in such a short time?"
"..."
“Yes, it is indeed outrageous.” Yu Lin, who had been watching Lu Yifeng’s actions silently, was amused by Su Mowan’s words.
Lu Yifeng didn't care about her words, and just clicked his tongue twice in triumph. Then he circled around Su Mowan again, his tone full of surprise.
"Young Master Mo, is that it? You're quite the actor. If I didn't have such discerning eyes, would you still be planning to keep fooling me?"
Well, once those words were spoken, Su Mowan understood everything. It turned out that Lu Yifeng was also a cunning and wicked person.
However, I can't stand the idea that she plans to continue this deception; she didn't intentionally deceive anyone.
Su Mowan then said coolly, "It's not a lie, it's just another identity. Young Master Lu, it's not very kind of you to say that. Let me think, Poison Immortal, right? Son of the Xiaoyao Sect Leader, right? Master of Luohua Pavilion, right? Look, I can just count them all, and they're enough to make my ears spin. Compared to Young Master Lu, what are mine?"
Ear flowers...
I've only ever heard of people's eyes getting blurry, now even their ears are getting blurry?
Yu Lin finally understood. He had already heard about the great reputation of Young Master Mo when he met Tang Minzhi at Wanggui Tower, which was why he went to visit the painting tower.
After seeing those two paintings, he felt that Young Master Mo was indeed worthy of his reputation.
Judging from Lu Yifeng's words, Young Master Mo is a woman, and it is Su Mowan.
He's really hiding his true abilities.
No wonder I ran into Tang Minzhi at Wanggui Tower; it turns out Tang Minzhi was there to see 'Young Master Mo'!
Yu Lin thought about it more and more and felt that this wouldn't do. Tang Minzhi's infatuated appearance showed that she was already deeply infatuated. He would definitely have to give her a good talking-to later.
However, what he didn't know was that Tang Minzhi was unaware that Young Master Mo was Su Mowan, and at that moment she was struggling with whether she had fallen in love with a man.
As for Lu Yifeng, he was completely stunned by Su Mowan's sophistry. At this moment, he finally realized why Murong Jing knew who held the Sect Leader's Token and had sent him to the Forgotten Return Pavilion, saying he would definitely find it there!
Of course Murong knew about the person he shared a bed with! It was just that he wasn't thinking clearly at the time, which is why he couldn't understand this.
If Su Mowan hadn't been dressed in men's clothing tonight, he wouldn't have associated her with Young Master Mo.
Thinking about how he was being toyed with by Murong Jing and Su Mowan, the young master Lu was furious. It was one thing for one of them to bully him, but now the whole couple was ganging up on him!
Are you bullying him because he's all alone?
Young Master Lu was still annoyed, but the anger he felt from being disturbed in the middle of the night had dissipated. After all, Su Mowan had been kind to him.
So Lu Yifeng didn't want to say anything anymore, only feeling that the whole world was full of malice.
He waved his hand: "Alright, alright, it's only right that I owe you. Goodbye, Young Master Mo, I won't see you off."
Yu Lin added from the side, "I won't see you off either. I hope you'll come through the main entrance next time."
"..."
She knocked on the door but no one answered, okay? You're making her sound like a womanizer!
Su Mowan rolled her eyes and said to Yinshuang behind her, "It seems that next time we can smash the door down rather than climb over the wall. If we do this a few more times, the door seller will probably make a fortune."
"..."
After the master and servant had walked away, Yu Lin raised an eyebrow and said to Lu Yifeng, "I know you are on good terms with the Prince of Qin, but when did you become acquainted with the Prince of Qin's concubine?"
Those who didn't know the situation would definitely misunderstand what he was saying. Lu Yifeng said irritably, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know. My relationship with her has nothing to do with Murong Jing!"
"That is how the matter?"
"The sect leader's token that I just retrieved was given to me by her."
"what?!"
Yu Lin's face showed a strange expression: "Didn't I hear that there's a rule in your Xiaoyao Sect that if the sect leader's token is passed on to a woman, she will become the next sect leader's wife? Now, in this situation..."
As Yu Lin spoke, seeing that Lu Yifeng's expression was not good, and thinking of Tang Minzhi's situation, he carefully said, "As the saying goes, one should not covet a friend's wife. As for that stupid family rule, just leave it alone."
Lu Yifeng: "..."
