Chapter 1084: Chapter 1084: Shu Yu Seducing Someone?
Shu Yu frowned at the man in front of her. While staying on the deck did offer better air, it also attracted the attention of others.
Like the man in front of her.
The man continued his self-introduction, “My surname is Yao, may I know your name, Miss? Earlier, I was enjoying the view from the second floor and happened to see you reading here. I thought you must be a learned person too. May I ask which famous work you like the most?”
As he spoke, he glanced at another book beside Shu Yu, smiled at its cover, and slowly read aloud, “South Tower Wintergreen… Legend?”
When he got to the last two words, his expression twisted momentarily, and he looked up at Shu Yu in shock, “Miss, you…”
“Do you want to read it too, Sir? That’s not possible, I didn’t bring many storybooks with me when traveling, so I can’t spare you any. If you want to read it, you can buy a couple when the ship docks next time. I heard this storybook is quite popular recently. The bookstores in town should all have it, it’s easy to find.”
Young Master Yao, “…”
It was at this moment that Ying Xi quickly walked over, blocking Young Master Yao from Shu Yu, sizing him up and down, “Make way.”
Where did this person e from? Her young lady already has Young Master Meng.
Not to mention the little bit of childhood connection with Young Master Meng. Just speaking of how excellent her young lady is, only Young Master Meng is suitable for her, anyone else must stand aside, especially the man in front.
Ying Xi raised her hand, ushering him back two steps, and said, “Sir, don’t stand here anymore, our young lady still wants to read. It’s better if you don’t disturb her.”
Young Master Yao wasn’t sure if he was intimidated by the storybook or stunned by Shu Yu’s words. After Ying Xi forced him back two steps, he actually left just like that.
Ying Xi was a bit surprised; she thought she might have to brandish a dagger.
But it was good that he left. She sat back beside Shu Yu.
Shu Yu chuckled and gave her a thumbs-up.
Neither the mistress nor the maid knew that behind the windows on the second floor, two people were watching them.
One of them spoke angrily, “What’s up with my brother? That woman is clearly staying on the deck on purpose to hook people. What decent young lady would show herself in such a place, and with a book no less? Doesn’t she get dizzy? Obviously, she’s putting on a show. My brother, normally so smart, fell for her trick.”
The other young woman replied gravely, “I saw her maid e up from the cabin below the deck earlier. I think they live down there and just came up for some fresh air.”
“Sister Jiayi, don’t try to justify her actions. We both know the status of people living below the cabin. It’s likely she stood on the deck to meet a rich young man.”
The more she spoke, the angrier she got, “Look at my brother, he fell right into her trap! You just wait; there will definitely be more than just my brother going up to talk to her.”
She was right; indeed, two more young suitors approached Shu Yu afterward.
Shu Yu, in her prime, was beautiful and had an air of carefree elegance, quite different from most of the distinguished young ladies these days.
Rarely was there such a sight on the deck, naturally drawing some attention.
Shu Yu was a bit bothered, but fortunately, the two young suitors who came later were quite gentlemanly. Upon hearing Shu Yu say she didn’t want to be disturbed, they never appeared again.
