Chapter 198 The Frail Young Master Gets Targeted by the Real Young Master 21
“Brother Huaiyuan, I think this style looks great on you,” Yu Sheng said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Lu Huaiyuan with undisguised anticipation.
888: Pfft, you're just pretending. You clearly want to use matching couple items!
Lu Huaiyuan glanced at his black phone and simply thought that Yu Sheng liked the style, without considering anything else.
He winked at the saleswoman, who smiled and took out an ice-blue phone. "Young master, what do you think of this color?"
Yu Sheng nodded. "Brother Huaiyuan, I want this one."
After Lu Huaiyuan swiped his card, he handed his phone to Yu Sheng. Just as he was about to leave, he paused and asked, "Is there anything else you need?"
Yu Sheng smiled and shook her head.
"Then we'll head back now." Lu Huaiyuan pushed Yu Sheng's wheelchair, and just as they reached the door, they heard a familiar male voice coming from the second floor.
"Brother Lu—"
Upon hearing the cheerful voice, Lu Huaiyuan knew it was Duan Jingcheng. Since Duan Jingcheng was there, Ning Du and Shang Qinglan must also be there.
To his surprise, he only saw Duan Jingcheng, but not Ning Du and Shang Qinglan behind him.
Before, when I wasn't around, weren't the three of them always in cahoots?!
Why is Duan Jingcheng the only one here today?
Lu Huaiyuan was very puzzled.
Three people: Brother Lu (Huaiyuan), what do you mean by "colluding with each other"? Your words are really hurtful.
"Brother Lu, I didn't expect you to be shopping at the mall too. Let me see what you bought?" Duan Jingcheng looked around with a grin, but unexpectedly met Yu Sheng's smiling eyes.
"Young Master Duan, it's been a long time."
Duan Jingcheng then realized that Yu Sheng was also there.
She couldn't help but widen her eyes and wink at Lu Huaiyuan: No, Brother Lu, what's going on here?
Why does everyone seem so strange lately? Putting aside Ning and Qinglan who are always whispering together, why is Lu always hanging out with Yu Sheng lately?
No wonder he couldn't call out to anyone.
It turns out they all abandoned him one by one. Brother Ning and Brother Qinglan are hooking up, Brother Lu is taking care of his adopted younger brother, and he's just here to provide emotional support to his mother.
"Brother Lu, you three are really shameless. Brother Ning and Brother Qinglan are having an affair, and you're busy keeping the young master company. So you all have dogs on the side."
Yu Sheng: Your description makes me want to strangle you.
Lu Huaiyuan's temple veins throbbed. "If you can't speak properly, you could just shut up!"
Duan Jingcheng quickly covered his mouth and smiled apologetically at Yu Sheng, "Yu Sheng, I... I didn't mean that..."
He realized he had said something wrong, and nervously twisted his fingers, lowered his head, and looked like he was admitting his mistake.
"I know, Young Master Duan is just outspoken."
Lu Huaiyuan interjected at the opportune moment, "Heh, he's just plain heartless!"
Duan Jingcheng felt somewhat wronged, but he couldn't refute Lu Huaiyuan's words, because even he himself felt that he was a bit heartless.
"But what exactly are Ning Du and Shang Qinglan up to lately?"
Duan Jingcheng shook his head. "I don't know either. I originally wanted to meet up with Brother Ning and Brother Qinglan yesterday, but Brother Qinglan told me to get lost. He said he was going to deal with someone."
"As for Brother Ning, I don't know why, he blocked me directly."
"And then there's you, Brother Lu. You kept saying you had important things to do, but now you're shopping with the young master. In the end, I'm just not good enough for you!"
"It's good that you know."
Duan Jingcheng yelled at the top of his lungs, attracting frequent glances from passersby, while Lu Huaiyuan felt extremely embarrassed.
After giving him a warning look, she pushed Yu Sheng, who was covering her mouth and chuckling, to go out. But when she turned around, she bumped into Ning Du and Shang Qinglan, who were awkwardly hanging on each other's shoulders at the door.
Shang Qinglan's eyes darkened, and when she saw Lu Huaiyuan and Duan Jingcheng, who was yelling like a monkey not far away, she subtly let go of Ning Du's hand.
Ning Du, who had finally broken free from Shang Qinglan, rubbed her reddened wrist and glared at him fiercely.
Shang Qinglan raised an eyebrow, gesturing for him to look across at the other side.
Ning Du followed his gaze and saw Lu Huaiyuan pushing Yu Sheng gracefully toward them, followed by a conspicuous bag, Duan Jingcheng.
He sneered inwardly.
Ha, now you realize it's not good to be all lovey-dovey in public?
Why didn't you do this sooner?
Ning Du didn't give Shang Qinglan a friendly look. Duan Jingcheng paused and subconsciously said, "Brother Qinglan, the person you said you were going to deal with on the phone wasn't Brother Ning, was it? Otherwise, why is Brother Ning's face so dark?"
Ning Du stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.
When did Duan Jingcheng become so perceptive?
Or did that scoundrel Shang Qinglan say something, or did he see something?
Otherwise, how could he have guessed so accurately?!
Last night, Shang Qinglan did indeed "deal with" Ningdu.
It's just that the methods used to "discipline" people are a bit unusual.
Seeing Ning Du's increasingly dark expression, Duan Jingcheng instinctively knew the truth.
Then, Shang Qinglan gave Ning Du a meaningful look, and her pleasant voice rang out, "Yeah~ I did give your brother Ning a good 'lesson' yesterday~"
Ning Du's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he raised his fist, ready to smash Shang Qinglan's nose.
Unfortunately, Shang Qinglan dodged it and even grabbed his fist, squeezing Ning Du's palm from an angle that others couldn't see.
Ning Du's face turned from black to red. She glared angrily at Shang Qinglan, then stomped hard on his leather shoe and twisted it forcefully.
Seeing Shang Qinglan's discomfitured expression, Ning Du's mood brightened considerably.
Shang Qinglan gritted her teeth and said through gritted teeth, "It seems I was too lenient before..."
Ning Du didn't hear this, but Yu Sheng and 888, who have excellent hearing, did.
888 exclaimed "Wow!" "Sheng Sheng, this couple is so cute! I bet... Shang Qinglan's 'tidying up' isn't the real 'tidying up'."
Yu Sheng nodded in agreement, "I guessed so too."
“Jingcheng, I could hear you yelling like a monkey from Mount Emei from far away,” Shang Qinglan said.
Duan Jingcheng retorted indignantly, "No way! I just raised my voice a tiny bit."
"A tiny bit? Your voice is as noisy as the loudspeaker in the neighborhood committee auntie's hand," Ning Du added another blow to Duan Jingcheng's heart.
"Brother Lu, look at those two! Now they're just colluding to bully me!"
Duan Jingcheng seemed to want Lu Huaiyuan to stand up for him, but Lu Huaiyuan secretly nodded and said, "I think their description is quite good."
Duan Jingcheng: "..."
Finally, he turned his hopeful gaze to Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng coughed lightly, "It's not like there are monkeys or loudspeakers on Mount Emei, it's more like a radio."
At this moment, Duan Jingcheng felt that the world had become much darker.
