The two young, handsome men, both carrying themselves like scions of aristocratic clans, stared wide-eyed at each other. Neither had expected the other to appear here.
"Shouzhe, didn't you say you wouldn't participate in this stage of the plan?" The slightly older handsome man was none other than Chen Fangjie, the Chen Clan's Young Clan Leader. He spoke somewhat awkwardly.
"I was worried, so I came to take a look. But Brother Chen..." Wang Shouzhe rubbed his nose and suppressed the urge to punch someone. "Why are you here? Could it be..."
"A misunderstanding, truly a misunderstanding." Chen Fangjie broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly waved his hands as he explained, "First, your plan needed someone to play the young master of a powerful aristocratic clan. I genuinely couldn't find a suitable candidate, and I thought the plan sounded quite challenging, so I took the field myself. Second... well, I'll tell you the truth, little brother. Fanghua told me that Miss Luoxian was beautiful as an immortal, like a banished fairy descending to the mortal world. He made it sound almost divine. I got curious, so I joined this mission personally to broaden my horizons."
"Heh-heh. I'll settle things with you after I ask." Judging by his expression and words, Wang Shouzhe believed him seven or eight parts out of ten. He then turned to Wang Mei. "Wang Mei, tell me honestly. Did this young master behave improperly toward you?"
"Reporting to the Family Head." Wang Mei immediately straightened her expression. "When this young master first saw this subordinate, he was entranced for roughly three breaths. After that, he turned his head away and did not dare look further. Aside from that, he committed no improper acts."
Only then did Chen Fangjie finally breathe a sigh of relief.
