Zong Ye frowned tightly, and a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.
"Damn Zong Yao, he's so cruel."
Lu Yao chuckled, "The City Lord is about to come out of seclusion. Before he goes through the tribulation, he will definitely choose a successor. If you want to win this competition, the most direct way is to throw dirty water on you and the Third Young Master before the City Lord comes out. If there is a fatal stain on you, it means that you will have no chance of becoming City Lord."
"The eldest son would not have resorted to such a desperate measure unless he had fabricated evidence against you or was desperate to achieve his goal. Fortunately, the third son was very lucky and survived."
"As long as the Third Young Master is fine, the advantage will be on our side. As long as we can find evidence to prove that the First Young Master planned this attack, we can bring him down to earth."
Zong Ye's eyes lit up, "Okay, hurry up and find evidence."
Lu Yaoyao nodded. "The eldest young master has always been stupid, and the Li family who supports them are also a bunch of losers, so I have never worried about the eldest young master. Besides, a month is enough time for me to find clues and completely eliminate him from this competition."
"It's the third one I'm worried about."
Zong Ye was puzzled. "Doesn't the Third Brother always dislike power struggles? What does this have to do with him?"
"That was before, but after this assassination attempt, it's hard to say." Lu Yao was a little helpless. "He's done something that backfired and only gave himself another opponent. The eldest master's move was really... stupid."
Lu Yao turned his head and said, "But these are not problems. I will take care of them. For now, you need to stay in the mansion and practice peacefully. Don't cause any trouble. It's best not to come to such a place of fireworks."
Zong Ye was a little skeptical, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. I'm just curious what kind of magical power this Miss Mingyue has that would make father offer protection."
A hint of surprise flashed in Zong Ye's eyes.
"Wait a little longer. I've been visiting Miss Mingyue quite frequently these days, giving away countless spiritual crystals and treasures. I don't believe I can't defeat him."
"As long as I can succeed, and considering my father has always favored Miss Mingyue, my chances of winning will be much greater."
Lu Yao sighed and stopped talking.
Suddenly, the door of the room was opened and a guard rushed in.
"Second Young Master, someone has gone up to the third floor!"
"What?"
Zong Ye, who had just sat down, suddenly jumped up.
…
After Li Changan went up to the third floor, he saw the girl Mingyue with bright eyes and a kind look waiting at the stairs, bowing to Li Changan.
Li Changan stared at her up and down, with a lustful look in his eyes that he didn't hide at all.
If Shen Qingyi was a cute and adorable girl, and Jiang Xuan was a domineering queen, then the girl before them, Mingyue, was a complex hybrid. With her enchanting figure and graceful demeanor, she possessed the youthfulness of Shen Qingyi, the grace of Jiang Xuan, the softness of Chang'e, and even the voluptuousness of Zhu Ying.
Damn, why did you think of Zhu Ying?
Li Changan secretly spat twice. What did the centuries-old witch Zhu Ying have to do with him?
"New poems are written all over Xue Tao's paper. The flowers are in full bloom and the moon is full. Miss Mingyue is indeed an immortal, like the flowers in midsummer and the full moon on the 15th day of the lunar month. No wonder she can make those ordinary people below be so infatuated."
Li Changan chuckled secretly. Fortunately, he had memorized two poems in his previous life, otherwise he would not know how to praise others.
Mingyue originally frowned at Li Changan's rude look. She had her reasons for asking Li Changan to come up, but she never thought that the person she had been waiting for for decades would be a lecher.
But when Mingyue heard this casually spoken poem, her frown immediately relaxed.
"Young master, you are so eloquent. I am not worthy of your words." Mingyue pondered secretly. The more she thought about it, the more wonderful these two lines of poetry seemed to her, but she also felt that she was leaving something unsatisfied.
"The poem you just recited seems incomplete. Could you please add the last verse?"
Li Changan laughed heartily, "Of course, my new poems are all over Xue Tao's paper, the flowers are in full bloom and the moon is full. Don't waste such a beautiful night, my love, don't sleep too much tonight..."
Eh? That doesn't seem right...
Li Changan was a little embarrassed. Why did the last two sentences sound like a hooligan?
As expected, Miss Mingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, looking annoyed and angry, "Sir, please stop saying such frivolous words, lest I look down on you..."
Mingyue felt ashamed and annoyed. Even if I want to commit myself to you, I can't be so naked when we meet. After all, I have a good reputation over the years.
Li Changan was awkwardly standing there. "Sorry, I'll change the song. Yes, change the song..."
She coughed twice as she spoke, "Hibiscus's beauty is rare in the world, with eyes full of smiles and eyebrows curved. She stands in front of the lamp, shy and silent, waiting for her lover to unbutton her clothes and blow out the lamp... Pah!"
Shit, that doesn't seem right.
"A pair of charming eyes, a three-inch lotus with a hint of spring..."
"When viewed from the side, a mountain becomes a peak; when viewed from the front, it looks different from different distances and heights..."
“…”
Li Changan stood there laughing awkwardly. What the hell was this word he was trying to remember? Why did he always feel like a gangster? He chuckled as he thought of the appropriate verse, "Well, the moonlight shines brightly before my bed..."
Bright Moon “…”
Li Changan covered his face, shook his head, and clasped his fists, saying, "Excuse me, excuse me!"
Damn, if my former homeroom teacher knew about my behavior, he would be so angry that he would travel through time and space.
"Young Master, you have great literary talent. I admire you." Mingyue's cheeks were flushed red, and she was a little shy, but she quickly adjusted herself.
"If you want to leave, please take me with you."
Li Changan was stunned.
What do you mean, you're blaming yourself?
I just said a few shameless flirtatious poems, and you really want to commit yourself to me?
"Haha, young lady, you've misunderstood. I've just arrived in Chaoyang City. I heard that Miss Mingyue from Yueying Tower is a rare beauty, so I came here to join in the fun. Now that I've seen her beauty, I'm leaving now. Yes, I'm leaving now..."
Just as he turned around and was about to leave, Mingyue unexpectedly grabbed Li Changan's arm.
It was as soft as jade, with a slight warmth, and wisps of faint fragrance could not resist entering Li Changan's nostrils, making him feel a little soft all over.
This woman is like a demon.
"Sir, you know, Moon Shadow Tower has been open for decades, but no one has ever set foot on the third floor. Not even the Lord of Chaoyang City is qualified." Mingyue said with a sad expression, "Sir, you are the first noble person to set foot on the third floor, and you are also the destined person I have been waiting for. Since you have insulted my reputation, why don't you take me away?"
Li Changan's whole body was torn apart.
Damn it, I didn’t even hold your hand, how could I have insulted your reputation?
How come you, a performer in a brothel, sound more innocent than me, the eldest senior brother of Taixuan Jiufeng?
"Donor, did you make a mistake?" Li Changan was so confused that he was talking nonsense.
Mingyue let go of her hand and walked to the stairs pitifully.
"I don't care. If you don't take me in, I will jump off this building to prove my integrity."
Li Changan: "???"
"Wait a moment, I'll jump first as a sign of respect."
As Li Changan spoke, he grabbed the railing and jumped down from the third floor, shouting at Nezha who was still eating and drinking with his head covered.
"run!"
