"I'm really quite lonely all by myself. If you guys would like to come over, that would be wonderful."
Lin Ru didn't want to listen to their nonsense.
She has her own things to do!
"Alright, I came here to see the flowers, not to watch you all flattering each other. Let's stop now."
"But these flowers are indeed beautiful. When I leave, Madam, you might want to take a few pots with me."
Upon hearing this untimely voice, Madam Ge clenched her fists tightly, fearing that she might not be able to resist killing the person herself in the next second!
The ladies nearby, upon hearing this nightmarish voice, immediately shut their mouths; they never wanted to experience that near-death feeling again.
However, while some people are afraid, others are not. For example, there are those young ladies who don't believe in evil spirits and have been influenced by their families. They were just backstage preparing to perform, so they had no idea what was happening in front of them.
They looked down on this unconventional village girl who seemed to have come from some remote mountain village.
In addition, the young men around Lin Ru, although from a collateral branch, are indeed handsome and talented, otherwise they would not have been entrusted with important responsibilities by the Ge family.
Naturally, people whom Ge Shi thought were good were very popular in Kyoto.
Now all these young masters are flocking around Lin Ru, making those people quite envious and jealous.
Although they are all legitimate daughters, they would normally look down on these people from collateral branches!
But what could be more surprising was that the young master of the Ge family was among this group?
The Ge family is one of the oldest and most prestigious families, and now it has produced a queen. If nothing unexpected happens, this queen will become the empress.
The Ge family's status will rise accordingly, and even the offspring of the Ge family's collateral branches will be unapproachable figures.
Now they're acting like dogs, following this village girl they look down on.
Naturally, one's mood is not good.
"How can this young lady be so rude? Didn't your parents teach you how to speak to your elders?"
"When elders speak, juniors should keep quiet and wait obediently on the side."
"Haven't you learned etiquette, benevolence, and filial piety? Haven't you read the Four Books and Five Classics? Haven't you read about female virtues and precepts?"
The moment the girl opened her mouth, her mother's legs went weak, and she wanted to rush forward immediately and cover her daughter's mouth.
If we anger that crazy woman on the other side, it's uncertain whether we'll all live to see the sun rise tomorrow.
"Shut your mouth right now."
"Don't embarrass me here."
The woman was surprised that her courage in standing up for herself didn't earn her praise, but instead she was scolded by her mother.
She was somewhat annoyed and angry.
"Mother! Why won't you let me speak?"
"If she dares to treat the Queen like that, why can't I say anything to her?"
"You may be afraid, but I'm not."
"I want to bravely stand up against all injustice."
“You should all stand up with me. This is Kyoto, not some remote mountain village. Why shouldn’t I speak up?”
"Why are you afraid to speak up?"
Her impassioned words failed to persuade her mother, but instead moved her girlfriends.
"Guo'er is right."
"We can't just stand by and watch him act so recklessly here. This is Kyoto, not her home! Who gives her the right to speak?"
"Don't you understand the principle of 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do'?"
"that is!"
Another person nearby chimed in.
"How can someone talk like that? She's completely disregarding us. She has no manners and no upbringing."
"Don't think you're so great just because you're standing on the same side as us now. You're just a country girl from a mountain village."
"Your Majesty, it's already a great honor that you came here. Otherwise, the iron cavalry of our Yingtian Kingdom would have already crushed your little village."
The women's chatter terrified their mother, who was so afraid that Lin Ru might pull out her magical weapon and shoot the people in front of her if she got upset.
Seeing Lin Ru remain silent, Ge felt a secret sense of satisfaction.
Finally, someone can control her.
At that moment, Lin Ru did not take out the artifact as they expected.
Instead, he shouted at the air, "Howling Moon!"
Everyone thought the girl was crazy, wondering who she was talking to in the air.
Even the young men who were close to Lin Ru were a little confused. They looked around but didn't see anything special.
They suddenly realized who this person was. He seemed to be some kind of mystical deity. Could he possibly be able to see ghosts?
Just when everyone thought Lin Ru had gone mad from all the scolding, they suddenly felt the ground trembling slightly.
Wu Ling, Lin Bai, and the other two tacitly gave up the seat next to their older sister.
Those young masters were constantly worried because Lin Ru was being guarded closely by these people!
They can only talk, but cannot have any physical intimacy.
They were all a bit unsure of what to do, but now that they saw the people around them had made room for them, they were happy and were about to move forward.
Suddenly, with a thud, they felt a strange sense of pressure behind them.
And I could also hear rather heavy breathing.
They looked at the girls across from them, who had been shouting so loudly, now pale-faced and trembling. The noblewomen all stood in front of their daughters, their bodies limp, wanting to retreat, but for some reason, their legs wouldn't move.
These people found it strange. When they turned around, they saw a huge and terrifying beast head, only a step away from them, with those green eyes staring straight at them.
Awoo~
Xiaoyue felt that these people really had no sense of propriety; didn't they see that its owner was calling it?
Why is it standing here so stupidly in the place that belongs to it?
It stopped opening its mouth and instead roared at the group of people.
Awooooo~~
These young masters stared at the enormous wolf head, then suddenly opened their mouths, their sharp teeth seeming as if they were about to bite off their heads in the next second.
The group of people screamed in fright and retreated repeatedly.
I almost peed myself.
They finally understood why those ladies had reacted that way.
Just as they were leaving, Xiaoyue howled twice more!
The wolf's howl, so close at hand, terrified the women, making them pale with fright.
Some screamed, some crawled in the shadows, and some fainted.
