Chapter 200: Chapter 171: It Really Is His Wife (Combined Chapter) Chapter 200: Chapter 171: It Really Is His Wife (Combined Chapter) Ye Lanzhi had intended to walk straight in, but that figure still blocked her path.
Ye Lanzhi quietly took a breath, then lifted her head to look at the smiling Fan Yushu. She, too, wore a smile on her face, “Yushu, good morning.”
Hearing this, Fan Yushu’s handso face turned sowhat red, “Lanzhi, good morning.”
It was only then that he had the chance to look around.
So of Ye Lanzhi’s senior sisters who had not yet left were curiously sizing him up.
When Fan Yushu’s gaze fell on a familiar figure, he exclaid in surprise, “Cousin Ruoxi, you’re here too?”
Ye Ruoxi smiled, “Yushu, it’s been a long ti.”
With joy, Fan Yushu nodded and faced everyone’s gazes as he introduced himself with a smile, “Hello, senior sisters, I am Lanzhi’s fiancé…”
“Yushu!” Ye Lanzhi suddenly called out, interrupting him. Realizing her tone might have been a bit harsh, she softened her voice, “…do you have sothing to take care of with ?”
Seeing this, Ye Ruoxi glanced at Fan Yushu and her cousin, sighed softly to herself, cleared her throat, said a few words to her companions, and led them inside, not wanting to disturb the private matters of the two young people.
She was quite familiar with Fan Yushu; after all, the two families were close. During festivals and clan celebrations, mbers from one family would often be seen among the other.
The Ye Family and the Fan Family were both rooted in Du You City as one of the great clans, and the old ancestors of both families were well-known Great Cultivators within the city. Moreover, the two families had a very good relationship, being both old friends and allies.
Fan Yushu was the direct descendant of the Fan Family, and Ye Ruoxi and Ye Lanzhi were also true heirs of the Ye Family, having known each other since childhood.
Moreover, there was a marriage agreent between Fan Yushu and Ye Lanzhi. Before their birth, they were betrothed by their elders, which could be discerned rely from their nas.
Lanzhi, Yushu.
It was also a window into the elders’ expectations for these two.
However, between the two, Ye Lanzhi’s cultivation talent did not let down her na or the expectations placed on her, even making the old Ye ancestor sigh why she wasn’t born a boy, as she would have been the outstanding child of the Ye Family. But the other party was sowhat lacking, no, extrely lacking…
Now seventeen years old, Fan Yushu had barely entered the Fu Yao Realm, and that was the result of heavy resource investnt. His admission into Linlu Academy was also achieved through a special program. He was there to polish his reputation; otherwise, he couldn’t keep up with Ye Lanzhi, who entered the Taiching Four Mansions through her own rit and raw strength.
However, even with such circumstances, neither family ntioned calling off the engagent, though the ti of their marriage was tacitly delayed by both families…
Ye Ruoxi looked back at the two at the door. In her mory, Fan Yushu and her cousin used to get along very well as children, and for a ti, they even had the relationship of lovers. But then…
Ye Ruoxi shook her head slightly and left.
“Yushu, if there’s nothing else, I should get going. I have quite a few things to do today,” Ye Lanzhi spoke softly.
Fan Yushu quickly retracted his gaze, took out a pale-pink letter paper with a unique fragrance and extraordinary material, clearly no ordinary item, and handed it over to Ye Lanzhi sowhat awkwardly, carefully watching her expression.
When Ye Lanzhi saw the letter Fan Yushu was holding out with both hands, her eyelid twitched. Again, those words that made one feel awkward and hard to understand; the more you read, the more you doubted yourself. You call this a love letter?
She wondered where he had found such things…
A trace of helplessness flashed in Ye Lanzhi’s eyes. She glanced up briefly and caught sight of Fan Yushu’s hopeful look. Hesitating for a mont, she reached out to take the letter, tucked it into her sleeve, and prepared to turn and leave at once.
At that mont.
She caught a glimpse of a young man’s figure out of the corner of her eye. The man was standing still about ten steps away from them, waiting.
That young man seed to have been watching them the whole ti.
A thought crossed Ye Lanzhi’s mind, and she stopped, turning to look.
She saw a youth dressed in a blue robe like Fan Yushu, a student of the academy. However, his dress and deanor were not striking, boasting nothing particularly eye-catching. At this ti, he was standing with his arms crossed, watching their direction.
Ye Lanzhi casually glanced at him a couple of tis before she retracted her gaze, her eyes filled with an inquiring look as she turned to Fan Yushu.
Realizing what she must be thinking, Fan Yushu quickly explained with enthusiasm, “Lanzhi, his na is Zhao Ziyu, my newfound friend. We get along very well. He, like , is a student under Teacher Yan in the special program. He ca with our teacher to give lectures at your mansion, and it just so happens we are staying in the sa courtyard.”
Ye Lanzhi’s brow furrowed imperceptibly.
After speaking, Fan Yushu turned back to Zhao Rong with a smile, “Ziyu, this is Ye Lanzhi, the fiancée I’ve ntioned to you.”
Zhao Rong’s eyebrows raised as he looked back and forth at their expressions, one excited and enthusiastic, the other calm, while his gaze toward her held a scrutinous look.
Zhao Rong’s gaze t Ye Lanzhi’s squarely as he smiled and nodded, “Miss Ye, good morning.”
Ye Lanzhi nodded slightly, without speaking.
Zhao Rong cleared his throat softly, gave Fan Yushu a look, and walked away to one side, no longer intruding on their private world.
Fan Yushu felt a bit uneasy, licked his lips, and was about to speak when Ye Lanzhi beat him to it.
“Did you reveal your identity as a Fan Family mber again?”
Fan Yushu was taken aback and promptly shook his head, “No, no, my friendship with Ziyu is that of gentlen, born from our shared studies. We do not inquire into each other’s family backgrounds.”
