Chapter 440: Transformation of the Daughter of a Noble Family in the Late Qing Dynasty 21



Shen Jinjin trotted all the way to the front yard and approached Ji Yu cautiously the first moment.

"Brother Ji, I'm going to tell you a secret. Don't tell anyone else." Shen Jinjin lowered her voice and said mysteriously.

"What's the matter?" Ji Yu was concentrating on looking at the Lin family's yard at the moment. He didn't pay much attention to what Shen Jinjin said, and just responded casually.

"It seems my brother and Meng Wan are hiding something from us!" Shen Jinjin put on a guilty look, her big eyes rolling around as if observing if anyone was eavesdropping.

"Oh? What kind of thing?" Ji Yu asked absentmindedly. Obviously he was not interested in this so-called secret, but he still answered casually out of politeness.

"You didn't even listen carefully!" Shen Jinjin's cheeks were puffed with anger, and his big eyes were wide open, just like a cute little puffer fish.

"Okay, okay, it's okay that I'm wrong. Just tell me, I'm listening." Seeing this, Ji Yu hurriedly comforted him, and this time he finally corrected his attitude a little.

"Hmph!" Shen Jinjin snorted and continued, "What could possibly happen between a man and a woman? It's just a small matter~"

Seeing Ji Yu's bewildered look, Shen Jinjin sighed in frustration, "Oh, why are you so stupid! Do you think there is some...sexual relationship between brother and sister Meng Wan?"

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of suggestion.

After hearing this, Ji Yu's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief on his face: "Are you serious? The two of them... this is unlikely, right?"

"How is it impossible? I have sharp observation skills! This is the conclusion I came to after careful observation!" Shen Jinjin raised his chin with a proud smile on his face.

"Are you sure?" Ji Yu was still a little skeptical.

Seeing that he still didn't believe her, Shen Jinjin had no choice but to describe the scene she had just seen with some exaggeration:

"I just saw them hugging each other! And, it seemed like the brother was going to forcefully kiss Sister Meng Wan! Sister Meng Wan, on the other hand, was leaning in brother's arms with a shy look on her face... Wow, that scene was so beautiful~"

"And, when we walked over later, they actually tried to change the subject on purpose. It was obvious that they were guilty!" Shen Jinjin became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she had turned into an experienced emotional expert.

Ji Yu was completely confused and half-believing and half-doubting what the little girl said.

After all, Shen Chengzhi told him seriously last night that he thought Miss Lin might lead his sister astray.

But in the blink of an eye, they started talking about love?

This made Ji Yu really unbelievable.

[System? Could it be that the heroine has really fallen in love with someone else? ]

Facing Ji Yu's doubts, the system immediately gave the most intuitive data feedback - [Lin Mengwan's current favorability towards Shen Chengzhi is -25. ]

Ji Yu looked at the numbers in front of him, and became more and more certain that what Shen Jinjin had just said was not true.

"Jinjin, don't think too much. If your brother really wants to find a sister-in-law for you, he would have told you in advance." Ji Yu comforted her patiently.

However, Shen Jinjin did not appreciate it. She pouted angrily:

"Humph! You obviously don't believe me!"

After saying that, the little girl turned around and left angrily.

When Shen Chengzhi and Lin Mengwan returned to the front yard, only Ji Yu was left standing there alone.

"Where did Jinjin go?" Shen Chengzhi asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"She said she wanted to go to the front street to buy some osmanthus cake to try." Ji Yu explained casually.

However, they waited and waited at home, but Shen Jinjin never came back.

At the same time, Shen Jinjin on the other side did not intend to delay her return home. It was just that she had just bought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she had been dreaming of when she was entangled by the rogue Xu Nanchen.

"Miss Chen, what a coincidence! I didn't expect that you also have a special liking for this store's osmanthus cake." Xu Nanchen said with a grin, and deliberately moved closer to Shen Jinjin.

If we were to describe Xu Nanchen yesterday, we could probably use the word handsome; but at this moment, he was simply ridiculous.

After all, he was severely beaten by Ji Yu yesterday, and now his whole face was bruised and swollen. But even so, he still pretended to be cool and unrestrained, constantly fiddling with his hair, trying to show the so-called elegance.

"Mr. Xu, please stay away from me! My brother is not far ahead."

Shen Jinjin was a little flustered and complained inwardly. If she had known that she would run into this guy when she went out, she would rather stay at home and not go out.

Xu Nanchen raised his lips slightly, revealing a nonchalant smile, and said softly: "I brought five servants with me. If your brother dares to come, it's hard to say who will suffer."

As he finished speaking, Xu Nanchen waved his hand casually, and behind him, a row of tall, muscular, and strong men stood out in an orderly manner.

Shen Jinjin, who had originally planned to run back to the Lin family, did not dare to act rashly at this moment. She was also afraid of causing trouble for her brother and Meng Wan.

"Don't do anything reckless! There are patrols everywhere in the open sky. Aren't you afraid of being arrested?"

Shen Jinjin couldn't help feeling a little flustered, but on the surface she still tried to remain calm and tried to look calm.

"Miss Shen, let me be frank with you. Marshal Zhou is now my uncle. Even if I really snatch you away, what can you do to me?" Xu Nanchen's face was full of disdain.

Yesterday, Xu Nanchen mistakenly thought that the two of them were rebels, so he deliberately concealed his true identity.

However, after returning home last night, he sent his men to thoroughly investigate the backgrounds of the two people, and found that there was nothing unusual about them.

In this case, there is no need for him to continue pretending today!

"You shameless person!" Shen Jinjin was so angry that he jumped up and down, cursing the other party angrily.

"Although I am indeed a bit of a scoundrel, I am also a well-educated and well-mannered person. At least up to now, I haven't done anything excessive to you! But..." Xu Nanchen began to pretend to be a gangster and a hooligan, and threatened viciously.
