Chapter 359: Better Not Mess With Her

However, Miao Linglong could not voice her complaints; she could only cast a reproachful glance at Miao Fengyu.
She also understood why Liang Yi and Liu Shimei would say such things. In simple terms, it was because of Miao Fengyu’s personality.
The gracefulness of the Elegant Prince, more accurately, could be described as debonair!
And the person behind him was none other than the top courtesan of the Imperial Capital’s largest brothel – Zhongding Pavilion!
Taking a courtesan out, even the Second Young Master, not the brightest one, knew better than to have a courtesan greet Miss Liu Shimei. It would demean these noble ladies of the Imperial Capital!
However, Miao Fengyu paid no attention to her complaints. His gaze landed on the hands held by Huangfulingyao and Liu Shimei, and his eyes filled with contemplation.
He quickly broke into a smile and said, “Well, as a literary man with no martial skills, I’m truly afraid I won’t be able to protect Miss Zhang. How about we travel together?”
Since they all belonged to the same social circle, Liang Yi could not refuse their company. She could only look at Huangfulingyao and say, “Prospective brother-in-law, you’ve been clamoring that my sister is yours. If you don’t protect my little sister today, I’ll definitely break your legs!”
Hearing this, Huangfu Lingyao grinned and huffed, “Of course, I’ll protect my wife!”
Liang Yi rolled her eyes and muttered, “Just don’t let my little sister end up protecting you again!”
These two were probably reincarnated cats and dogs, always at odds. Liu Shimei smiled and intervened, “Let’s go inside. There’s no auction today, so why are there still so many people?”
Upon hearing her question, Miao Fengyu hurriedly spoke, “Hasn’t it just been a little over 15 minutes? Even though all the good stuff has been snapped up, these business tycoons still have some private goods left for personal transactions. Today is the day for trading.”
Every time Miao Fengyu spoke to Liu Shimei, she received a discreet look from Cui Wei.
“I see,” Liu Shimei’s smile was somewhat cold.
How long had it been since she met Miao Fengyu? Cui Wei had already scrutinized her at least five times, especially when Miao Fengyu was talking to her, Cui Wei’s gaze carried hidden hostility.
Tsk, tsk, it seemed this red card had ambitions!
Better not mess with her!
Liu Shimei calculated in her mind that she would separate Zhang Miaozhen from this pair of siblings later.
Miao Fengyu was undoubtedly not a good person. While there was no direct evidence of whether Miao Linglong was good or bad, Liu Shimei had a vivid memory of the unique medicinal scent emanating from Miao Linglong on the night Yu Wanqing was bitten by the snake!
Huangfu Lingyao held his wife’s hand, his face filled with the excitement of a dog experiencing the world, but the corner of his eye had always been observing his wife.
Sensing that she was lost in thought, he asked nonchalantly, “Wife, are you tired?”
“Huh?” Liu Shimei looked up at him.
She saw the look of pure joy on her silly puppy’s face and his gesture toward the nearby table. He said, “There’s a lot of delicious food over there. Let’s go sit down for a while!”
His eyes were gleaming with anticipation as he saw the food, just like a dog seeing a bone. To outsiders, he was someone who only knew how to eat!
Liu Shimei glanced at the others who had stopped and was about to speak when Huangfu Lingyao started coaxing her by holding her hand, “Let’s go sit for a while! They’re not tired, so let them continue walking!”
He added, “Anyway, I don’t want to walk with them!”
See, isn’t it great to be a ‘fool’? He could straightforwardly express the message ‘I don’t like you’ without pretense!
