"She's coming, she's coming!"
Suddenly, soone exclaid softly.
Su Chen and Yunlong imdiately raised their heads at the words and looked toward the pavilion by the pool, only to see a graceful figure appearing along the corridor!
Though separated by a silk curtain, her tall figure in a white dress was clearly discernible. She moved gracefully towards the edge of the pavilion, where a yáo qin was already placed.
The woman behind the silk curtain approached the yáo qin, slightly bowed in greeting, then sat down and extended her slender hands!
Despite the curtain, every movent she made emanated a special kind of beauty, as if she were ant to be just this way!
At this mont, everyone seed to hold their breath and listen attentively.
As soon as her fingers touched the strings, a delicate lody instantly resonated, seemingly captivating everyone's hearts!
Soon, a suprely beautiful and enchanting lody drifted out, reaching everyone's ears, making them irresistibly imrsed in it!
The audience couldn't help but close their eyes slightly, savoring this music like celestial sounds!
At this mont, they felt as if they were standing on the clouds, stepping on five-colored clouds, beholding a heavenly palace and an ethereal woman before them!
Everyone's face unconsciously showed a faint smile of infatuation!
The woman in the pavilion seed to glance at the audience across the pool. When she saw Su Chen still sipping wine while watching her, she uttered a soft "hmm."
However, she soon lowered her head and continued playing...
For so reason, Su Chen felt an air of familiarity about the woman, although he hadn't even seen her face to understand the source of this feeling...
"Maybe I'm just overthinking,"
Su Chen shook his head, muttering to himself, then resud drinking...
Just then, there was a commotion at the entrance, and three or four n entered!
Actually, after the music started, people had been quietly entering, finding seats without making a sound.
But the n who ca in now were boisterous, as if oblivious to everyone else.
"Young Master, this place isn't bad!"
One of them flattered.
"Hmm, not bad at all!"
The young man in the lead laughed heartily:
"This music sounds damn good!"
"You did a good job this ti!"
The young man patted the shoulder of the sycophant, praising him.
"It's rare for Young Master to go out; I ought to put in my best effort!"
The sycophant, elated from the pat, grinned obsequiously again!
Those imrsed in the music were startled awake, glaring at the newcors with discontent!
But seeing that they sat down quietly to listen, no one spoke up.
Primarily, they feared sparking a dispute that would disturb the fairy-like woman's playing in the pavilion!
Yet, the woman seed unaffected throughout, her music flowing dreamily, unhurriedly!
Soon, everyone closed their eyes again, just like before, lost in the music, including the newcors!
When the music ended, everyone slowly opened their eyes, as if awakening from a dream!
Su Chen couldn't help but marvel at the music's enchantnt, as if it possessed so magical power!
At this mont, the woman rose again, offered a slight bow, and prepared to leave!
"Wait a mont, miss!"
At this ti, a voice rang out, the speaker being the young master who had entered earlier.
The woman in the silk curtain paused slightly but remained silent.
"I find you... utterly captivating!"
The young master took a few seconds to co up with this expression, then continued to call out to the woman in the pavilion:
"Why not find a place to have dinner, drink so wine, and admire the moon together?"
Though he hadn't seen the woman's face clearly, she stirred an irresistible longing within him!
Hearing this, everyone was incensed, considering his words extrely rude!
Moreover, his face showed undisguised lasciviousness, his tone was filled with flippancy!
Anyone could guess his intentions just by looking at him!
Yet the woman ignored him and turned to leave...
Just as everyone prepared to rebuke him, a servant girl approached:
"Sir, please conduct yourself!"
"Conduct myself?"
The young master snorted coldly, his anger rising seeing the woman vanish into the pavilion!
Seeing the servant girl pure and beautiful like a lily, his face once more showed that lascivious expression!
"Since she won't accompany , why don't you join ?"
The young master seized the servant girl's slender wrist, laughing impudently, lecherous eyes examining her body!
"Let go!"
The servant girl struggled desperately upon her wrist being seized. But her frail body was no match for the young master, her wrist reddened from effort, to no avail!
"Release the girl!"
At this mont, an indignant man exclaid!
"Bang!"
Before the sentence was finished, soone beside the young master kicked him directly away, sending him flying into the pool!
Thankfully he landed at the shallow edge of the pool, where the water wasn't too deep. The man slowly climbed out, completely soaked, like a drowned rat!
Several others who initially intended to intervene retreated, seeing how formidable just one of his n was!
As for the few n from the Five Great Families, they didn't step forward either.
Since the incident, the families strictly forbade their mbers from provoking trouble outside!
Judging by this person's appearance, he was clearly extraordinary, so they naturally chose not to ddle!
The young master glanced disdainfully at the crowd, thinking they were foolish to dare involving themselves in his affairs!
He then used a bit of force, causing the servant girl to fall onto his lap!
"Let go!"
The servant girl panicked even more, cried in fear.
"Why let you go, co, join for a drink!"
The young master chuckled.
"Let her go!"
At this mont, a gentle voice sounded.
"Who the hell sticks their nose where it doesn't belong!"
The young master uttered in irritation, seeing yet another person stepping forward.
anwhile, the man beside him prepared to kick again!
"Bang!"
A muffled sound echoed, but this ti it wasn't soone else flying; instead, it was the young master himself...
