Bai Zhi and Zi Ling, who were not far away, saw this, their faces flushed with shyness, and they felt a bit helpless.
Young Miss's filter for Lu Zhenghai was too strong.
So much so that, as aloof as Young Miss was, even now, with Lu Zhenghai holding her small hand and standing so close, she hadn't reacted.
Zi Ling wanted to remind her.
But Bai Zhi whispered to stop her: "Young Miss clearly likes Young Master Lu."
"But he has a wife."
"What does that matter? If Young Miss is willing, even the most devoted Young Master Lu will slowly be melted by Young Miss."
"That's true, Young Miss's beauty is unrivaled in the world, and men are ultimately lustful."
"If Young Miss, with her aloof personality, misses Young Master Lu, she might end up single for life; she can't miss him."
Bai Zhi and Zi Ling were chatting animatedly.
Meanwhile, Pei Muwan broke free from Lu Zhenghai's large hand holding her small hand, and also moved a little away from Lu Zhenghai.
It was too intimate just now.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, why was she so tolerant of Lu Zhenghai's presumptuousness?!
She was fundamentally not this type of person.
In the past, with other men, even if they looked at her for too long or spoke to her too much, she would feel disgusted.
But no matter how presumptuous Young Master Lu was, her emotions were always just shy annoyance.
Pei Muwan didn't understand.
Her mindset was that of a complete fan, with a strong fan filter.
Suddenly, Lu Zhenghai approached her again.
This time, he even put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear: "Mu Wan, I'll give you a poem, a poem exclusively for you."
Lu Zhenghai was never one to sit idly by.
Since he was very eager for Pei Muwan!
Then he would boldly win her over!
Remember, if you feel a connection, be decisive, otherwise you will regret it in the future.
The sooner the better!
As for the fact that he already had a wife, Jiang Chiyao?
Not to mention that this was ancient times, where one could have three wives and four concubines.
Even in modern times, he would do the same.
After all, that scheming woman Jiang Chiyao, who tricked him into marriage, she didn't treat him as her husband, and he didn't treat her as his wife.
Lu Zhenghai was genuinely single.
As for how to flirt with women? He was an expert.
It was simply about being shameless and proactive... Also, using different tactics for different women.
For those inexperienced in the world, show them the bustling world.
For those who have experienced much, take them on a carousel.
It had to be targeted.
For Pei Muwan, nothing worked better than poetry.
Look at her attitude towards other men, it was absolutely ascetic.
Then look at her attitude towards him, tsk... poetry could completely captivate her.
Since she thought that both "immortal by the river" and "butterfly loves flowers" were written for Jiang Chiyao.
Then, he would write another one for her, Pei Muwan.
"Re... really?"
Pei Muwan even forgot that she was currently being held by Lu Zhenghai's arm around her waist.
She turned her head slightly.
A perfect, beautiful profile met Lu Zhenghai's eyes, and Lu Zhenghai's breathing hitched.
Pei Muwan's beautiful eyes burst with an indescribable excitement and anticipation, as if her ears were already perked up.
"'Qing Ping Diao presented to Pei Muwan'"
"Clouds want clothes, flowers want faces; the spring breeze brushes the railing, the dew is thick and beautiful."
"If not seen on the peak of Mount Qunyu, then one would meet under the moon on Jade Terrace."
I told you that you are the most beautiful, but you didn't believe me.
Then let poetry prove it.
Even better, there was also a moon element in the poem, perfectly coinciding with moon-gazing at this moment.
It fit well.
With a masterpiece dropped, Pei Muwan's beautiful eyes became hazy, and she grew even more dazed.
Lu Zhenghai found it a little funny.
Everyone said how aloof and cold Pei Muwan was... but he felt that this girl was a love-struck, cute, and innocently sweet person?
"Kiss me..."
After more than ten breaths, Pei Muwan suddenly spoke, her voice cold with urgency.
What Jiang Chiyao, what Lu Zhenghai's devoted persona, what Lu Zhenghai was already married, none of it mattered... Pei Muwan, who had never kissed before, only wanted to kiss now.
Her love-struck mind completely exploded.
Lu Zhenghai lowered his head without hesitation.
The world turned upside down!
Not far away, Zi Ling and Bai Zhi's faces turned red, and they quickly turned their backs.
After an unknown amount of time.
Pei Muwan broke free from the warm embrace, her face flushed crimson: "I'm going home!"
Her mood was very chaotic right now.
How did it suddenly turn out like this?
Moreover, because of the poem "Qing Ping Diao," she had new insights and an Epiphany, and could probably continue to Breakthrough.
She was currently forcibly suppressing the urge to Breakthrough; she wanted to go home and Cultivate.
"I'll take you back to the Grand Tutors Residence, and there's still a pond of fish there."
Lu Zhenghai said with a smile, naturally yet domineeringly holding her soft, boneless small hand, and walked out of the private room... Luoshui Tower.
In a private room on the eighth floor.
Commander Lin and the other two were continuously toasting Heir Yuan Chengye.
But Heir Yuan Chengye was a bit distracted.
How smart Centurion Wang was; he seized the opportunity to say: "Young Master of the Heir, if you're worried about Miss Pei, you can send someone to check."
What if they saw Lu Zhenghai and Pei Muwan being somewhat intimate? Heir Yuan Chengye might explode on the spot and want to kill Lu Zhenghai immediately, saving him the trouble of assassination tonight.
"Centurion Wang, speak less, drink more."
"Miss Pei's aloofness and indifference, who in the entire Imperial City doesn't know?"
"What is Young Master of the Heir worried about? Is Chief Lu going to dare offend Miss Pei?"
"Besides, Miss Pei is a Grandmaster Realm Cultivator."
"Chief Lu is only barely a Innate Realm existence; he wouldn't have the strength to offend her even if he wanted to."
... Commander Lin glared at Centurion Wang and quickly tried to smooth things over.
Commander Lin was very annoyed with Centurion Wang.
No matter how much you dislike Lu Zhenghai, Lu Zhenghai is still a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Are you being a bit despicable by deliberately provoking and trying to make Heir Yuan hate Lu Zhenghai even more?
"Indeed, who among the seventy million people in the Imperial City doesn't know what kind of person Mu Wan is?" Heir Yuan Chengye said.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he casually glanced out the window.
He saw... below the Luoshui Tower.
Lu Zhenghai and Pei Muwan, holding hands, walked towards a carriage, with two Maidservants following behind them.
Yes!
Holding hands!!!
Heir Yuan Chengye's eyes instantly became bloodshot, and his breathing turned into gasps... Boom!
The terrifying Grandmaster Realm Fifth Layer aura also uncontrollably burst forth directly.
He just stared out the window, stared down at the Luoshui Tower, staring fixedly.
If his gaze could kill, at this moment, the Great Yu Dynasty would probably have been utterly destroyed long ago.
"Young Master of the Heir..." Commander Lin called several times.
Seeing that Heir Yuan Chengye didn't react, Commander Lin also subconsciously looked out the window and down at the Luoshui Tower.
Including Centurion Wang, Centurion Song, Zhang Yan, and Sun Buxiu, all four of them did the same.
Then, they all froze.
What... what did they see?
Holy cow, what in the heaven and earth, under the moonlight, Lu Zhenghai and Pei Muwan were holding hands?!
