I Just Won’t Play by the Book - Chapter 180

“Young Master Lin!”

Outside of a pergola, Qin Cuirong waved at Luo Wenzhou.

Luo Wenzhou smiled when he heard it. He put away the “Yunhua Elixir Scripture” that his Master Jiang had given him and stood up to open his arms to Qin Cuirong. Qin Cuirong threw herself into Luo Wenzhou arms. She hugged his waist tightly and said, “Young Master Lin, I miss you so much.”

However, Qin Cuirong did not receive a response from Luo Wenzhou for a long time. She looked up at Luo Wenzhou in disappointment and found that he was looking at her with a smile.

“Young Master Lin, what are you smiling at?”

Luo Wenzhou touched Qin Cuirong’s hair and replied, “It seems that you can never imagine how much someone who smiles at you like

you.”

Qin Cuirong’s face turned red after hearing that. She buried her face deep into Luo Wenzhou’s chest and said, “Young Master Lin… I like you too…”

“Good! You wretched girl! I was wondering why you disappeared at noon. Turns out that you’re meeting your lover here!” When Qin Cuirong, who was expressing her love, heard this voice, she instantly let go of Luo Wenzhou and jumped far away as if she had been electrocuted. Then, she turned around and looked at the figure in the distance. She knelt down and said, “Miss… Miss, I understand my mistake.”

However, just as Qin Cuirong finished speaking, Luo Wenzhou helped her up. Then, he cupped his hands toward the woman in a blouse in the distance and said, “Greetings, Miss Hong. I greet you with respect.”

“Oh?” Hong Yaxuan sized up Luo Wenzhou and said, “You know me?”

Hong Yaxuan looked graceful and elegant. She had an impeccable elegance. Her long black hair was as smooth as a waterfall and as soft as silk. Her black hair was loose and loose, forming a perfect combination. The silver stars and crescent moon hung in the sky were just complemented to her beauty. Her slightly raised face was exquisite, and a pair of lively eyes kept sizing Luo Wenzhou up.

“I know that Rongrong is a servant girl of the Hong family. She called you “miss”, which means you are the daughter of the Hong family.” “Oh ~” Hong Yaxuan said as she approached Luo Wenzhou. “Since you know that Rongrong is a servant girl of the Hong family, you still dare to flirt with her in broad daylight. You have gut. Tell me, who are you!”

“I am Lin Yu, a regular person. I came here to travel and met Miss Cuirong by chance. I couldn’t help but feel admiration for her.”

When Qin Cuirong heard Luo Wenzhou say the words ‘admiration’, she immediately lowered her head shyly. Seeing this, Hong Yaxuan couldn’t help but shout, “Aiya! You shameless brat, you still don’t have any remorse after being caught by me, right?” “No, Miss…” As Qin Cuirong said this, she wanted to kneel down again, but was held back by Luo Wenzhou.

Luo Wenzhou cupped his hands at Hong Yaxuan once again and said, “Miss Hong, Rongrong and I are in love. I don’t know what mistakes we have to repent for?”

Hong Yaxuan placed her hands on her hips and said arrogantly, “Of course, it’s not wrong for you to be in love with someone else, but Hong Residence has rules. The marriage of a servant girl must be decided by the family head. Do you know that she has broken the rules?”

Luo Wenzhou glanced at Qin Cuirong after hearing that. The latter quickly said, “I’m sorry. Young Master Lin, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I…”

However, Luo Wenzhou shook his head at her. Then, he looked at Qin Cuirong and said, “Then I’ll visit Hong Residence. I’ll ask Master Hong for the permission to marry you.”

“Ah!” Hong Yaxuan couldn’t help but size up Luo Wenzhou for a while. “You’re quite arrogant. Let me tell you, in Hong family, even a servant girl has to marry a cultivator. Are you a cultivator?”

Luo Wenzhou nodded and released his dark blue mystic energy.

Hong Yaxuan couldn’t help but be shocked when she saw it. “You’re really a cultivator!?”

Qin Cuirong was also stunned. She had thought that Luo Wenzhou was a clean and fair scholar, but she didn’t expect him to be a cultivator.

“I wonder if I have the qualifications now?”

“Still no! My mother said that good-looking men are not trustworthy.” As Hong Yaxuan spoke, she pulled Qin Cuirong, who was hiding behind Luo Wenzhou. “I’m not at ease about marrying my only personal servant girl to you.”

Luo Wenzhou was not in a hurry and asked again, “Then what do I have to do to make you feel at ease?”

Hong Yaxuan Thought for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up. “Hmm… if you can pass my test, I will give you a chance.”

“Miss…” Hearing that Hong Yaxuan still wanted to give Luo Wenzhou a test, Qin Cuirong hurriedly tugged at the hem of her skirt.

Looking at Qin Cuirong’s “I’m willing” expression, Hong Yaxuan looked at Luo Wenzhou and said, “Wait for me for a while!” After saying that, she pulled Qin Cuirong to the side and said, “You little money-losing thing! I’m helping you to check if that man is sincere towards you.”

“I’m fine with it… Miss, as long as Young Master Lin is willing to accept me, I… I can do anything.”

“You! You’re really pissing me off!”

Looking at the master and servant whispering in the corner, Luo Wenzhou couldn’t help but laugh.

From the moment Hong Yaxuan appeared, Luo Wenzhou could tell that Hong Yaxuan wasn’t that kind of mean young miss. Otherwise, Hong Yaxuan could just punish Qin Cuirong after they went back. There was no need for Hong Yaxuan to waste her breath on Qin Cuirong.

Seeing that this young miss was quite easy to talk to, Luo Wenzhou wanted to get familiar with her. After all, although the mission given to him by his master was only to investigate the background of the four great families, if he could get to know a few young misses who had authority in their respective families, he might be able to use them in the future.

Not long after, Hong Yaxuan left Qin Cuirong on the spot. She walked over and asked Luo Wenzhou, “What’s your cultivation level?”
