As soon as Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng returned, they were invited to Yue Shi's study by his entourage.

Although the Yue family has not produced many scholars, this study room is quite well-decorated, and it really lives up to the saying -

There are many tools for poor students.

After the two of them went in, Yue Shi came up to them with a smile on his face, and his attitude was very attentive.

"I heard that the two young friends went out for a walk today. How about it? Our Muzhou is not worse than Zhou Jin's place, right?"

Lin Chengyu said: "It's quite good. Just by looking at the furnishings on the street, you can imagine the original prosperous scene."

Yue Shi was very proud when he heard this. "This is all thanks to my master. He worked day and night for Muzhou, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

At this point, he seemed to remember something, and his expression became a little lonely, "If my master were still alive..."

At this moment, Yue Shi was singing a one-man show that belonged only to him. Even if Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng did not respond at all, he did not seem to care.

Yue Shi seemed to have just realized that he had lost his composure, and said in a hasty and embarrassed tone, "I am sorry to have made you two laugh at me. The scene really brought back emotions, and I couldn't control myself for a moment."

Lin Chengyu thought to himself, here comes the main topic.

Yue Shi felt annoyed when he saw that Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng looked indifferent and didn't seem curious about what he was going to say next.

He performed so hard that it was as if he was performing for a blind person.

Lin Chengyu yawned a little and said lazily, "If Master Yue doesn't have anything else to do, we'll go back and rest. We're really tired after walking around."

Yue Shi gritted his teeth secretly. He had laid so much groundwork, yet he looked like nothing had happened?

After Lin Chengyu finished speaking, he stood up, as if he was about to leave.

Yue Shi became anxious and stopped acting or keeping the secret. He immediately asked his followers to bring the person in.

Soon, a handsome young man came in with his entourage.

Although this young man looked weak and harmless, there was an unusual light flashing in his eyes.

Yue Shi was deeply moved.

"He is the youngest child in my family. When the zombies appeared that day, the city was in chaos and the child disappeared."

"Now that we have finally found him, I am really happy."

Lin Chengyu: "...So what?"

Yue Shi's face was full of anticipation. "You two young friends are very capable. If you can teach this kid a thing or two and let him learn some self-protection skills, I will have the face to see my master even in the afterlife."

The sound of an abacus came out of nowhere.

Lin Chengyu was a little suspicious. Could it be that between him and Xuan Zheng, one of them looked gullible, while the other was particularly gullible?

Does Yue Shi think they are fools?

Lin Chengyu really couldn't believe that such a person was originally an aide.

Muzhou is so big, how could such a person be appointed as a staff member? It's really rare.

He had reasonable reasons to suspect that Yue Shi's aide had hired him with money.

"Master Yue, you are too kind. But we are not very knowledgeable and I am afraid we cannot teach the young master. Let's ask someone else."

After these words were spoken, not only did Yue Shi's expression change a little, but even the young man almost failed.

The young man's name was Chen Yuanheng, and at this moment he was looking at Lin Chengyu with his eyes wide open, angry and resentful.

Yue Shi said: "My friend, are you looking down on me and deliberately making excuses?"

Lin Chengyu smiled slightly, gentle but distant, "Master Yue, you are overthinking it. Now in Muzhou, you are the one who has the final say. Who dares to look down on you?"

"Then what do you mean?" Before Yue Shi could say anything, Chen Yuanheng angrily questioned, looking like a spoiled young master, "I am willing to follow you because I think highly of you, so don't be ungrateful."

He looked nothing like the gentle and polite person he was when he first came in.

His words were not pleasant to hear, but Lin Chengyu was not annoyed. She turned her head to look at him and said, "Since Master Chen is so arrogant, he can just walk away."

There was a hint of sarcasm on Lin Chengyu's face, which was quite glaring.

"You!" Chen Yuanheng was furious and was about to curse, but was stopped by Yue Shi.

He was so angry that he almost died, but he didn't dare to disobey Yue Shi. He could only stand aside angrily and snorted heavily.

Yue Shi said ashamedly: "This child has been spoiled since childhood. Although he has a bad temper, he has a good heart. The two young friends are broad-minded and will naturally not argue with the child."

child?

Lin Chengyu chuckled. This child looked older than him. Yue Shi was really shameless to say such a thing.

"That's what Master Yue said. We certainly won't argue with a child who is still wet behind the ears."

Lin Chengyu paused, and just when Yue Shi thought he was going to succeed, he heard him say, "Even the head of the Yue family said he was a child, and we don't know how to take care of children, so we can't let them follow us."

Yue Shi's expression froze instantly. No matter how hard he tried to persuade them, these two people didn't even give him the slightest bit of face. It was really outrageous.

After Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng left, Chen Yuanheng changed his arrogant look and asked in a deep voice: "Boss, what should we do now?"

A sinister look flashed across Yue Shi's face, "Humph! This time, even if they don't want to, they will have to agree."

After that, he looked at Chen Yuanheng's face carefully, "Look at you, you are not bad looking. Although you are not as good looking as that brat, you are one in a million in appearance. Why are you so disappointing?"

Chen Yuanheng was silent.

Yue Shi added: "Although your face can't compare, you can make up for it in other aspects."

"How do you say that? Please tell me clearly, Master."

Yue Shi smiled sinisterly.

"The boy's appearance and bearing show that he is from an extraordinary family. He must be unable to lower himself at times..."

"But you can."

Chen Yuanheng almost immediately understood what he meant, and a bit of discomfort immediately appeared on his face, "But as the head of the family, I don't like men, let alone doing those things with men."

Yue Shi's face darkened and he scolded, "Those who accomplish great things should not be too particular about small matters. If you can't even do this, how can I entrust you with important tasks?"

"I..." Nowadays, Yue Shi has the final say in Muzhou. If Chen Yuanheng wants to show his talents and become a superior person here, he can only listen to Yue Shi.

He thought of Xuan Zhang's handsome face, and said, "I will listen to the boss."

Seeing that he had figured it out, Yue Shi's eyes flashed with contempt, but he said, "That's right, don't worry, if this is accomplished, this Muzhou will be yours in the future."

Chen Yuanheng was delighted. He really didn't expect that Yue Shi could promise him so much. The last bit of reluctance in his heart also disappeared.

Just like Yue Shi said, those who achieve great things need not to be fussy about trivial matters. When he sits in Yue Shi's current position, let's see who dares to look down on him.

The next morning, Lin Chengyu and Xuan Zheng found Yue Shi.

"Master Yue, we have been bothering you for several days and disturbing your leisure time. We are very sorry."

"Besides, I have other things to do and cannot delay any longer. I will prepare to leave today."

Yue Shi didn't expect it to be so sudden. If he let them go, his life would be in danger.

He had seen his master's methods and naturally didn't want to try them.

Yue Shi couldn't help but tremble all over when he thought about it.

"But Yue's request yesterday was too offensive, so the three of you are in a hurry to leave?"

"If this is the reason, I, Yue, would like to apologize to the three of you."

After saying that, Yue Shi stood up and bowed solemnly to apologize.

"I thought about it carefully last night. That request is indeed a bit unreasonable. Please don't bother with a rude person like me."

His attitude can hardly be described as insincere.

Yue Shi really didn't believe it. Even though he was so humble, these three people could still have the heart to refuse.

"Master Yue's words are serious, and it's not because of what happened yesterday." Lin Chengyu's expression was more sincere and serious than Yue Shi's. "I really have something to do and can't delay any longer."

Yue Shi didn't want to listen, and continued, "Yuan Heng was indeed too reckless in what he said and did. I scolded him severely yesterday. I will ask him to come over and apologize to the three of you later."

After that, he asked his followers to call Chen Yuanheng over, "This rascal is disobedient, so he should be taught a lesson. When he comes over later, I will beat him or scold him, and I will not hesitate."

In short, Yue Shi was determined not to let them leave today.

Lin Chengyu raised her eyebrows slightly, lowered her eyes and took a sip of hot tea, "Master Yue is really..."

There is donkey hair stuffed in the ears.

When Chen Yuanheng came in, his attitude was obviously very different from yesterday. It must be that his entourage had said something to him.

Lin Chengyu wanted to see how this "child" would apologize.

But he obviously didn't expect that as soon as Chen Yuanheng came in, he knelt down in front of them without saying a word.

Ho!

"What are you doing? Hurry up, there is no New Year's money for you now."

Chen Yuanheng's face twisted for a moment, and when he looked at Lin Chengyu, his eyes were not very friendly, but when he turned to look at Xuan Zheng, there was a hint of affection in his eyes.

Lin Chengyu paused while holding the tea.

He then realized that Chen Yuanheng seemed to have dressed up specially today, and the clothes he wore were much more exquisite than yesterday.

Well, this is prepared.

"It was all my fault yesterday. I said some things I shouldn't have said. Uncle Yue has already scolded me severely."

"I have realized my mistakes. I will take all the beatings and scoldings you three may have today."

Lin Chengyu almost applauded him, and the look in his eyes was full of...

love?

"Fourteen, help Master Chen up quickly."

"Children are often outspoken."

"If we adults were to have the same ideas as children, what would happen?"

Yue Shi couldn't help but twitch his lips. The child's words were obviously mocking what he said yesterday.

After Fourteen helped Chen Yuanheng up, Yue Shi's face was full of kindness and helplessness.

"My dear young friend, you are very generous. This kid is very lucky."

"It's just..." Yue Shi paused, and then said, "I see that the three of you have made up your mind to leave, so why not hold a banquet tonight and wish you all a safe journey."

Lin Chengyu would naturally attend such a blatant Hongmen Banquet.

"In that case, we would be disrespectful to refuse."

Yue Shi showed a look of joy on his face at the right time, and asked the people below to prepare carefully.

"If you make any mistakes and neglect our distinguished guests, you will not be allowed to stay in this Yue Mansion."

In the evening, Lin Chengyu and the other two arrived at the banquet on time, and Yue Shi asked Chen Yuanheng to greet them.

It was called an apology to Lin Chengyu and the others.

Lin Chengyu said nothing, but watched Chen Yuanheng approach Xuan Zheng intentionally or unintentionally, with a hint of frivolity between his eyebrows. Even a blind man could see the temptation in it.

But isn't this kid too arrogant? He even dares to be so proud of himself towards him.

Lin Chengyu asked casually, "Mr. Chen looks quite old, is he married?"

After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Chen Yuanheng to speak, and continued: "Mr. Chen is a handsome man, and I am sure there are many girls who admire him. Unlike me, I am controlled by this man in my family all day long and cannot even see outsiders."

As he spoke, there was a hint of anger in his tone, but Chen Yuanheng clearly felt that he was showing off.

When he saw Lin Chengyu putting her hand on Xuan Zheng's leg under the cover of the small table, his eyes almost popped out.

Lin Chengyu couldn't help laughing in his heart, but his face still had an expression that seemed to complain but was actually showing off, "I really can't help it."

Chen Yuanheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath before replying, "I am still young, and my family has not arranged a marriage for me yet."

"So that's how it is." Lin Chengyu sighed regretfully, "I wonder what kind of women Mr. Chen likes. Tell us so we can keep an eye out for you."

As soon as the opportunity to flatter came, Chen Yuanheng immediately seized it.

He glanced at Xuan Zheng quickly, then looked away in panic.

When he spoke, his voice was low and a little shy, "I already have a lover, so I won't bother you."

Lin Chengyu used some force in his hands and looked very curious.

"Oh? I wonder what Mr. Chen's sweetheart looks like."

"To be able to attract the attention of a noble man like Master Chen, she must be a rare talent."

Lin Chengyu's mischievous hand was suddenly held back, and he moved his fingers soothingly, telling him to stop making trouble.

Chen Yuanheng looked at Lin Chengyu's ignorant face with pity and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Such a person with a pretty face and an empty head wants to compete with him. He is really overestimating himself.

"I... I can't say." Chen Yuanheng's eyes suddenly became sad, as if he had a lot of unspeakable secrets that he couldn't tell.

Seeing that it was almost done, Yue Shi interrupted, "If it weren't for the friend today's question, I wouldn't know that this kid actually had a sweetheart. He even hid me, and he really deserved a beating."

His tone was full of tolerance towards the younger generation, and his eyes when he looked at Chen Yuanheng were full of love.

Lin Chengyu asked, "Don't you want to know who Mr. Chen's sweetheart is?"

Yue Shi laughed and said, "If he doesn't want to talk, I won't force him. When he wants to talk, he will know it naturally."

Lin Chengyu curled her lips and smiled, "I really didn't expect that Master Yue is such an open-minded person. If that's the case, I'd be a bit annoying if I ask again."

Chen Yuanheng smiled coldly in his heart. He was originally an annoying guy.
