Gigolo (2)

In the past two years, almost the entire capital city has known who Li Yue is, especially the nobles present. They know that the Li Family has such a promising young girl.

It's not just because she's a young lady from the Li Family, nor just because she possesses the Li Family's heirloom— the Heavenly Mechanism Armor —but more importantly because of Li Yue's achievements in the military. Regardless of whether she has a powerful background, she will have a bright future.

Such a beautiful and unmarried girl naturally becomes the focus of everyone's attention. There are many people who want to pursue her, want her to be their daughter-in-law, and want to become her family.

Under these circumstances, everyone noticed that Li Yue wasn't contacting anyone, and she didn't agree to or accept offers from even the most desirable people!

However, many people did not give up and tried various ways to get close to Li Yue, hoping to win Li Yue heart, but all of them failed.

Many stories have unfolded around the events mentioned above, including several popular events that have become topics of conversation among people.

Basically, everyone understands one thing: winning over Li Yue is an extremely difficult task!

However, everyone now noticed that Li Yue seemed to have been captured, as she was actually pulling a Fox Tribe boy's hand as she entered!

"Wow, so handsome..." When those noble ladies saw Ye Lang, their eyes lit up, and they were clearly infatuated.

Of course, as nobles, they quickly put away their infatuated behavior, as it was beneath their dignity. They also knew that if they looked at Ye Lang with such infatuation, he would see them for who they truly were.

Even though some people know this, they still swoon over him, which shows just how irresistible Ye Lang is right now!

"Could it be that Li Yue is also the kind of person who values appearance?"

When they saw Ye Lang, no one thought Ye Lang had anything particularly outstanding about him. The only thing that caught their eye was his handsome appearance. Of course, what else could they see besides his looks?!

However, no matter what, everyone seems to have a misunderstanding now. They still think that Li Yue likes handsome young men like that. They all regret that they should have let those handsome young men have their way with her. They thought that Li Yue would prefer someone with more masculine traits.

It's too late now; they believe they can't find many who can compare to Ye Lang!

However, they were not surprised by Ye Lang's appearance, because the Fox Tribe always looked like this. If Ye Lang were not so handsome, it would have seemed strange to them.

This is also due to the differences between races. People like the Fox Tribe, the elf race, and the legendary dragon race are all extremely handsome. It is no wonder that such a person would appear among them.

They couldn't be sure if Li Yue liked this type of person, but they felt there was an 80-90% chance. Ye Lang had only been by Li Yue's side for a short time, and the people present didn't even know it. So, the fact that they could make such great progress in such a short time indicated one thing: Li Yue might like this type of person.

As for what happened between Li Yue and Ye Lang, I believe very few people know about it. Apart from Zhao Yarou, almost no one knows. If people knew about these things, they wouldn't care about Ye Lang's appearance, nor would they think that Li Yue was doing it because of that.

However, they would never know this in their lives. Neither Li Yue nor Ye Lang told anyone about it. It was a secret between them, and since it involved the death of the Sword Saint's son, it was even more important not to tell anyone.

"Moon, is he your friend?"

Before Li Tianjun and Madam Li could even ask, someone else had already done it for them. A young Young Master with a somewhat imposing air looked at Ye Lang with a gaze similar to the previous man, but he seemed to be better at hiding his true feelings.

"Yes, he is my friend," Li Yue nodded. "Also, please don't call me Yue'er. That's what my parents and elders call me, not you!"

The person in front of her was a family friend and peer of Li Yue. He liked to take advantage of this and felt that he and Li Yue were not ordinary people, but very special.

The nickname "Yue'er" was used by someone very close to Li Yue. As a family friend, he had naturally heard it before and would sometimes shamelessly use it to Li Yue. Li Yue had said this many times, but he still continued to use it.

Although Li Yue was angry, she couldn't possibly treat someone badly just because of a form of address!

"It seems you two are not just ordinary friends..." The young Young Master had a long-standing family friendship with Li Yue, ignored Li Yue's warning and looked at the point of contact between Ye Lang and Li Yue, which was Li Yue holding Ye Lang's hand.

When Li Yue saw the other person's gaze, she followed it. She wanted to know why the other person thought that she and Ye Lang were different!

"Ah..." Li Yue exclaimed softly, immediately letting go of Ye Lang's hand. Only then did she realize that she had unknowingly made a very intimate gesture.

As mentioned above, Li Yue was unaware of it because she had become quite accustomed to it. Ever since Ye Lang had hugged and taken care of her, this behavior had become quite ordinary.

In some people's words, since they've already hugged, what's the big deal about holding hands?

However, those were all when no one was around. Now, with so many people watching, including her parents, she became embarrassed and immediately let go of Ye Lang's hand. Her face was now a little red with embarrassment, and her head unconsciously lowered a little.

"Ah..." Everyone looked at Li Yue with their mouths agape. It would be so easy for her to put a boiled egg in her mouth.

What we saw! Li Yue actually blushed! What an unbelievable sight!

"Ahem..." Li Yue coughed a few times, glancing at everyone present, her eyes seeming to say, "What are you looking at? What's so interesting?!"

At this moment, she seemed to have regained the resilience that a soldier should have!

Immediately, everyone shut their mouths, looking at Li Yue who had somewhat returned to normal, waiting for further developments, or simply put, waiting for Li Yue's reply.

"We are definitely not just ordinary friends!" Li Yue said calmly, not seeing any problem with the meaning behind her words.

"An extraordinary friend? What is that?" This was the question that everyone who pursued and cared about Li Yue to ask, and the person who asked this question was none other than that hypocrite from before.

"Yes..." Li Yue wanted to say, but the words wouldn't come out. It wasn't that she didn't want to say it, but that she really couldn't think of a way to explain it.
