Chapter 825 A Glimpse of a Fake
Qi Heng, Yuwen Kun, and Xu Da are all ambitious men who yearn to achieve great things, and they all love Lin Yuesha. This can only mean that Lin Yuesha is truly as the legend says... a lucky charm incarnate.
Miao Yin saw through the situation, and it was no wonder that Lin Yuesha, despite not being a stunning beauty, was always sought after.
"Lord Yuwen, are you satisfied with this generous gift?"
Helian Cheng had assumed Yuwen Kun would be overjoyed, but seeing his gloomy expression, he realized something seemed wrong.
Miaoyin was exposed as soon as she appeared?
Helian Cheng was suspicious. In any case, if something went wrong, his subordinates would naturally take the blame for their poor performance. Miaoyin's whole family was under his command, so they would never dare to talk nonsense.
"You captured her?"
Yuwen Kun looked at Helian Cheng. If Lin Yuesha suffered even the slightest hardship, he would definitely settle accounts with Helian Cheng.
"No, no, no, it's not about arresting, it's about inviting them."
Helian Cheng was a shrewd man. He suddenly understood the meaning behind Yuwen Kun's words and said with great survival instinct, "It's not that I captured her, but that I invited her. It's not a big gift either. Miss Lin is your wife."
Helian Cheng's words were quite pleasing to Yuwen Kun, who then beckoned Miaoyin over and immediately ordered, "What are you standing there for? Come and pour some wine!"
Miaoyin was stunned. What happened to the promise of being pampered and treated like royalty? Something seemed amiss.
Could it be that Lin Yuesha and City Lord Yuwen always get along like this? No way.
Miao Yin felt a chill run down her spine. She thought of He Liancheng's words: if she couldn't get away with it by Yuwen Kun's side, he would send her to Qi Heng's doorstep.
Yuwen Kun is just a bit bloody, but if he falls into Qi Heng's hands and his secret is exposed, he will suffer a fate worse than death and will never want to be reborn as a human in his next life.
Without almost any hesitation, Miaoyin chose Yuwen Kun.
"It's been a year since we last met, and you're still as clumsy as ever."
Yuwen Kun was completely satisfied, letting Miaoyin serve him from behind, unaware that it wasn't Lin Yuesha herself.
He hadn't spent much time with Lin Yuesha, and had been teasing her for amusement. Now that they had reunited, he used the same trick again.
Actually, he didn't want to torture Lin Yuesha, but rather to use this method to make her recall their past.
Yuwen Kun's thoughts were still quite simple.
"The food is barely edible. I've heard that Miss Lin is an excellent cook, so perhaps..."
Helian Cheng secretly probed, and sure enough, Yuwen Kun coldly replied, "The city lord's wife of Sishui City is not a servant of your household."
If you're going to cook, you can only cook for him; there's no way he'll freeload.
Yuwen Kun turned his head and glanced at Miaoyin again, urging her to pour the wine quickly.
Miaoyin knew a little about Lin Yuesha's temperament, so she greeted her with a smile and said, "Yes, Lord Yuwen."
"You've probably cursed my ancestors for eighteen generations now."
Yuwen Kun made a joke, but he was in a particularly good mood. He loved seeing the little girl get angry, yet she had no choice but to appease her, daring to be angry but not daring to speak out.
"No, no, I wouldn't dare."
Miaoyin braced herself and continued to pretend, standing behind Yuwen Kun and waiting for instructions.
"Alright, let the girls from Yunzhao Pavilion take the stage."
After all the food and wine were served, only the last dish, roasted whole lamb, was missing. Helian Cheng clapped his hands and gave instructions to the servants in the mansion.
Lin Yuesha, having received the notification, and Yun Ge, along with the girls of Yunzhao Pavilion, filed in with small, quick steps.
Once inside, she automatically took Yun Ge's place, ready to lip-sync at any moment.
Upon hearing the sudden turn of events, Yunluo immediately understood why Yunduo had said she wouldn't compete or fight; it turned out she wanted to steal the spotlight by singing a little tune, and now she had easily replaced Yunge's position.
All of this must have been arranged by Granny Hua. It was Yun Ge who was unlucky enough to be pushed down, and it had nothing to do with her.
However, Yunluo still felt uneasy watching the clouds take advantage of her.
Everyone wants a chance to get ahead, and this is a really good opportunity.
Lin Yuesha was facing Helian Cheng and Lan Yanzhu, her heart trembling with nervousness. Especially after seeing the face that looked exactly like hers, she realized how amazing the art of disguise was.
She had once read a book of strange tales, which described a long-lost art of disguise that could also shrink bones, and it was described in a very mysterious way.
When faced with Miaoyin, Lin Yuesha thought that person was herself, and her soul left her body.
Helian Cheng sent imposters to infiltrate Blue Eyes' circle, but they were unaware of the tattoo on Blue Eyes' chest, especially the yellow pigment, which resembled blooming magnolia flowers—something not found among the alien race.
This imposter won't last long unless he never takes off his clothes.
However, given Yuwen Kun's character, even if she refuses to undress, he has ways to force her.
As the sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air, the sisters, their faces veiled, gathered together and, in sync with the music, formed the shape of a flower.
Lin Yuesha and Yun Ge exchanged a glance, and her performance officially began.
She lip-synced to the words, and Yun Ge sang along. The two were perfectly in sync, their collaboration seamless.
"Sir, I'll bring you a whole roasted lamb."
The burly man led the stuttering boy through the door, and the two of them carried the whole roasted lamb together, which came with a charcoal oven.
From the moment he entered, the burly man saw Yun Duo, the beautiful woman surrounded by people singing a ditty. She was the woman his mother had chosen for him as his wife, whom he had met once in the main kitchen.
The city lord of Sishui City has found a woman he likes, but Helian City doesn't like women, so in the end, the city lord will get the woman he wants.
The burly man was secretly delighted, his eyes constantly stealing glances at Lin Yuesha.
Lin Yuesha pretended not to see it, but her eyes glanced over and landed on the big mole behind the burly man.
Could the person with the large mole be Qi Heng?
Their eyes met, and Lin Yuesha seemed to see the knowing look in the other person's eyes.
There was no better way to hide than to infiltrate Helian Cheng's household and become a timid servant.
When the two met again, it was in this unexpected scene.
Qi Heng followed the burly man into the room, intending to find an opportunity to sneak into the side room, but his gaze was unconsciously drawn to the person in the middle.
For no other reason than that, from his perspective, it was obvious that the other person was lip-syncing, just matching the lip movements—truly creative.
The person who sang in her place was a little maid whom Qi Heng and Lin Yuesha had rescued at the Zhenbei Prince's villa, and he had arranged for her to work at Yunzhao Pavilion.
What a coincidence that everything happened at the same time!
"Bring it up."
Helian Cheng waved his hand, focusing on drinking with his male favorite, while Yuwen Kun was enslaving Miaoyin behind him.
Qi Heng was certain that the singer was Lin Yuesha. Upon seeing another face that looked exactly the same, he remained quite calm, as he already knew that Helian Cheng had someone under his command who was skilled in disguise.
Miaoyin's skills were limited; he immediately recognized the other party as an imposter.
Lin Yuesha's way of holding the wine glass was different from Miaoyin's. The two had been together for so long, Qi Heng couldn't possibly not recognize her.
The reason why Yuwen Kun treated the counterfeit goods as treasures and was completely fooled by Helian Cheng was ultimately because Yuwen Kun and Lin Yuesha spent too little time together.
