Chapter 161 is not a complaint, but merely a statement of facts.



The young couple here are inseparable, oblivious to everything else around them.

Some places are not so wonderful.

"Aphrodisiacs? Is this all the young noblemen in the capital have to offer?" Xie Yunyu breathed a long sigh of relief, originally thinking that the young master here would be even more skilled than the one in Xihua City.

I never expected that someone would still end up drugging someone and ruining their reputation in this kind of situation.

She didn't know if the person behind her had a tumor in their brain or if they were just swaying around and could turn into breakfast porridge, nor did she consider whose stage this time was the "Floating Wine Cups on the Winding Stream" event.

If anything goes wrong at this event, shouldn't it be thoroughly investigated?

Not to mention, she's a minor right now.

Imperial law provides very strong protection for minors.

Sigh, what were you thinking?

"Thank you, Young Master." Shen Juanqing arrived at some point, his voice gentle and refined, his eyes filled with a hint of worry.

Xie Yunyu tilted her head slightly to look at the young man, and subconsciously scratched her nose. "Is there something you need, Young Master Shen?" She didn't know why she had done anything to catch Mo Jue's eye.

"I heard a bit of a rumor and was a little worried about Young Master Xie." Glancing back casually, "Now it seems that I was overthinking it." Shen Juanqing maintained a safe social distance of 1.2 meters from Xie Yunyu throughout, without overstepping any boundaries.

To be honest, Xie Yunyu didn't like these rather cumbersome formalities, but when he talked and chatted with Shen Juanqing, he found that these formalities seemed to add points to Shen Juanqing, and he felt very comfortable getting along with Shen Juanqing.

"Isn't Young Master Shen going to do anything about this?" He raised an eyebrow. He's a soldier, after all. How could he not do anything about this situation?

Shen Juanqing picked up her phone and sent a message to someone, saying, "All I can do is tell her parents. There's nothing else I can do." A faint smile remained on her face.

Tell the parents?

"I never expected that Young Master Shen would also tattle."

"This isn't a complaint, just stating the facts," Shen Juanqing denied Xie Yunyu's words. "I wonder if Young Master Xie intends to continue watching the play here, or if he has other plans?"

When Xie Yunyu's clear eyes met Xie Yunyu's, Xie Yunyu subconsciously shook her head.

"Then, Young Master Xie, why don't you join me to watch a play?" Shen Juanqing invited.

Xie Yunyu didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just looked at Shen Juanqing's face and followed him.

I can't help but feel regretful. What happened to me?!

Just like that, you went with him?

Han Lianjun? What's he doing here... eating like this?

You're already so full, why are you still eating?

Xie Yunyu witnessed a scene that greatly surprised her. "What's wrong with this... Young Master Han?"

Putting aside the Han family, Han Lianjun's own abilities shouldn't be enough to justify such a waste of money, right?

And it's obvious he was already full, right?

Shen Juanqing didn't even give him a glance. "He's probably too hungry." Given Han Lianjun's status, few people would dare to speak ill of him, especially now that Gu Nanyan and Shen Beian had also come in.

The discussion became even quieter.

Just as Xie Yunyu was about to speak again, she saw the young couple over there, and her eyes instantly lit up with stars, even though they had added Gu Nanyan's contact information.

Xie Yunyu simply greeted him and dared not say anything more.

Seeing it again now!

Shen Juanqing was unaware of Xie Yunyu's affair with Gu Nanyan. From this perspective, he thought Xie Yunyu was looking at his uncle.

Shen Juanqing was very satisfied with her appearance, but when she met her uncle, she really didn't dare to say anything.

“Young Master Xie, my uncle is getting married. Isn’t it a bit impolite for you to stare at him like that?” Shen Juanqing silently reminded him, as he indeed had no right to discipline Xie Yunyu.

Although she was jealous, she knew she had no right to be jealous; as a suitor, she didn't have that right.

Even if you become her boyfriend or husband, you only have the right to remind her, and you should respect her.

"My aunt might be a little unhappy," he said completely.

Xie Yunyu looked at Shen Juanqing with some surprise, realizing that Shen Juanqing had misunderstood.

After all, even men can't help but stare at Master Shen's face; it's the kind of face that makes you want to eat more meals if you look at it a few more times.

I suppose I get that kind of look all the time. “I was looking at the eldest son, not Master Shen.”

In all honesty, she felt only respect for her benefactor's husband, nothing more!

This answer startled even Mo Jue, who remained calm even if Mount Tai collapsed before him. "Young Master Xie... just now... were you saying that you were looking at Auntie?"

Xie Yunyu nodded. Few people knew about her relationship with Gu Nanyan, and she didn't bring it up herself.

Many people were focused on Shen Bei'an, but almost no one paid attention to Gu Nan'an.

It's not that Gu Nanyan isn't good-looking; after all, no one would stand out in appearance next to Shen Bei'an.

It's not because of Gu Nanyan, but because of him.

The younger generation may not be very clear about Gu Nanyan's childhood, but who among the middle-aged or even the older generation doesn't know?

How could someone who is young and in charge of managing a family be simple?

Why could Gu Nanyan make Han Lianjun lose face and have no choice but to eat with just one sentence? Why, even in a place like the capital of the empire, no one dared to approach Shen Bei'an despite the many people being interested in him?

"I only have some matters to discuss with the eldest son; I'm not trying to steal your uncle's affections." Although he really wanted to, he figured his benefactor wouldn't allow it, so he decided to give up.

It's good to love everything associated with someone you love.

Shen Juanqing smiled and said, "Then, would Young Master Xie like to go and have a chat with your aunt?" What could Young Master Xie have to do with his aunt?

One is the eldest son of the capital, and the other is the little princess of the Xie family in Xihua City. What kind of relationship could there be between them?

Shen Juanqing could tell that Xie Yunyu didn't want to talk about it, and as for Gu Nanyan, there was even less reason to want to know anything.

Xie Yunyu held a small sachet in her hand, a worn-out and somewhat antique little thing, and hesitated.

But his gaze remained fixed on Gu Nanyan.

Perhaps sensing something, Gu Nanyan and Shen Beian turned to look in their direction.

Shen Beian subconsciously reached out to Shen Juanqing.

Shen Juanqing smiled helplessly, "My uncle called me. I wonder if Young Master Xie would be willing to accompany me on this journey?" He extended an invitation.

Xie Yunyu nodded and followed Shen Juanqing over.

"Good morning, Aunt and Uncle."

"Young Master, greetings to Fifth Master Shen."

The two bowed side by side, almost as if they were about to get married.

Gu Nanyan waved his hand and said, "Rise."

"Qingqing, why are you with Young Master Xie?" Shen Bei'an asked curiously while instructing Gu Nan'an to get him a serving of Dongpo pork.

"Since we happened to meet, I invited Young Master Xie to come along. I am also grateful that Young Master Xie accepted my invitation and did not refuse me." Shen Juanqing concealed the matter with a smile on his face.

Gu Nanyan picked up a piece of Dongpo pork from his hand and held it to Shen Bei'an's mouth, "This is the last piece tonight. An'an, you've had enough meat just now."

Shen Beian was just feeling happy because he was eating delicious Dongpo pork, but his happiness vanished in the next second.
