It was hard for her to explain her feelings. If it was another man, she would not have bothered at all and would not have asked too many questions. Born in an upper-class family, Luo Lingyu knew clearly what noble men did in private. There were few men who did not cheat. A smart girl would pretend not to know and deal with the "evil" in private. But when such a thing happened to Lu Yun, she could not swallow it.
She and Lu Yun were already discussing marriage, and he was about to marry her. If he really had an affair with another girl at this time, she would be very upset, and she would never marry him. If she couldn't marry him, wouldn't all the energy she spent on him be in vain? Wouldn't the faults she had corrected in Lu Yun be used by the girl behind him?
Only a fool would ask whether Lu Sanlang was cheating on her.
But Luo Lingyu felt disgusted and couldn't stand the handkerchief. She waited for a few days and still visited Lu Yun every day as before. She found that Lu Yun didn't even notice that there was a handkerchief missing from his clothes. Luo Lingyu saw that he looked normal, which made her even more suspicious. She wondered if he really didn't know, or if he was already anxious in his heart but was lying to her on the surface.
She didn't believe that Lu Yun would never lie to her because he was so smart; and she didn't believe that she had the ability to see through Lu Yun's lies because she could see through his lies at a glance.
So I pursued it privately.
The first time Lu Yun had a possible affair was before she came to Nanyang. During that time, the war in Nanyang was not serious, so he had time to cheat. After that, he was too busy and couldn't finish his official work. Lu Sanlang was so proud that he would never be so impatient as to cheat under her nose. For this reason, Luo Lingyu went to Wei Cong, the general of Wei, to get information.
The girl was extremely charming, with flowing eyes and a dazzling look. When she smiled sweetly, Wei Cong was so dumbfounded that he answered whatever the girl asked.
General Wei was arrogant and criticized Lu Sanlang from beginning to end: "...Lieutenant Lu has the temperament of an aristocrat and is arrogant. Girl, you don't know, when he first came to Nanyang, if someone touched him with mud on his hands, he would be sullen for a whole day. You know the look on Lieutenant Lu's face, right? Another time when we were chatting, I said a wrong word, do you know how hurtful the look he gave me was? He doesn't care about people... Every time I see him looking down on people, I want to beat him up. Fuck, he is a human being, and we are not human beings? Are we not worthy of being looked at by him?"
General Wei kept swearing. Although his relationship with Lu Sanlang had eased a lot now, he still complained about Lu Sanlang's shortcomings - "Other generals came to the army for training and gradually got used to the rough life. But Lu Sanlang is different. He wants us to get used to him! Half a year has passed, and you see, as long as it is possible, General Lu still does not live in the barracks, and does whatever he wants..."
Luo Lingyu understood General Wei's feelings very well.
Because Lu Yun was this kind of person - when she first met him, she didn't know how many times he looked at her with disdain. Or was it the kind of half-smile, the kind of look that looked at her in a playful, joking, and embarrassing way.
But now was not a good opportunity to sit with General Wei and criticize Lu Yun. Luo Lingyu took advantage of General Wei's thirsty speech to interrupt: "Then there is no girl with him?"
General Wei immediately remembered that the beauty he had sent to Lu Yun was returned intact, and he became even angrier: "He even looks down on women! Who can serve him? Miss Luo, how can you stand him..."
Luo Lingyu pursed her lips and smiled, not daring to say that in fact she and Lu Sanlang were no different.
Luo Lingyu got the answer she wanted from General Wei and left gracefully. Her beautiful back made Wei Cong stunned for a while. Judging from their appearance, Lu Sanlang and Luo Niangzi were a perfect match. After Luo Lingyu left, she verified from many sources and confirmed that Lu Yun had never been with a woman before she came to Nanyang. She then set her sights on the time when Lu Sanlang went to Luoyang.
What happened in Luoyang, how did Lu Yun rescue those celebrities, these are all military secrets, Luo Lingyu is not in a position to ask. But what kind of military secret is "Chen Xue"? Luo Lingyu got the list of soldiers who went to Luoyang with Lu Yun, and according to the list, she planned to ask about them one by one.
After the military exercise in the morning, the army camp had breakfast. The kind and virtuous Luo Lingyu came to help improve everyone's food, which made the soldiers feel embarrassed. The girl was like a butterfly, flitting among the crowd, and found an opportunity to chat with several soldiers. Suddenly, Luo Lingyu asked casually, "I heard that there is a famous girl in Luoyang City, her surname is Chen and her name is Xue. Have you heard of her?"
"Puff——" The porridge in the mouths of several people spat out, and they coughed violently.
Zhou Yangling heard the noise and looked over. Luo Lingyu stood up with a red face and waved her hand to indicate that everything was fine. She also hurriedly patted several people on the shoulders. She didn't expect that the name "Chen Xue" would make them react so strongly. After several people coughed enough, they raised their heads with strange expressions. The girl was still looking at people with eager eyes. One of them said in a strange tone: "Who told the girl about this person 'Chen Xue'?"
Luo Lingyu gave a hypocritical smile and covered her cheek with a handkerchief: "Of course it's my third cousin."
Several people: “Ah…”
Several people exchanged an expression that was hard to describe: Lu Sanlang was a real warrior. Not only did he dress up as a woman, he even dared to tell Luo Niangzi about it. He was extremely shameless. Could this be the reason why Lu Sanlang was able to marry Luo Niangzi, while they could only sigh in despair?
Luo Lingyu scolded them: "Come on! Why don't you say anything? Who is Chen Xue? Why does my third cousin know her?"
A few people looked at each other again, and one of them said cautiously: "Maybe... it's just... just acquaintance?"
Luo Lingyu's eyes narrowed. She was good at observing people's expressions, so she could see that these people were avoiding her gaze. The more they avoided her gaze, the more it proved her guess in her heart - Lu Yun was their superior, and Lu Yun had cheated on them, so in order to please their superior, they kept it a secret for him.
Luo Lingyu felt a pain in her heart, but she knew that no matter how much she asked, they would not tell her the truth.
She had no choice but to hint at it: "...Actually, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Third cousin is really something. He didn't even tell me directly. It's as if I'm so ignorant. Even if he lets Sister Chen Xue in, I'm still very generous."
