Chapter 204 Study Room
A figure was hidden in the night and landed on the main roof of Hengjian Villa.
There were walking guards under his feet. There were countless people practicing martial arts in Hengjian Villa, but no one noticed the figure on the roof.
Lou Xiao silently walked over the eaves and hung in front of the window. She vaguely heard voices talking in the main house. She listened carefully and could barely tell who was who.
I'm talking about her.
"It seems that the Duke of Zhenguo can't resist the temptation of beauty. The Tenth Master invited Yu Heng to accompany him. When will she rest?
"Old Ten, have you ever tasted the taste of Master Yuheng? I don't count on it. You are a well-known person in Yunsu City. Does he like you?"
As soon as the malicious voice fell, Yue Pengyu continued to explain,
"I went to Luoyang Boat for business, not for men."
She knew that some of her family members were dissatisfied with her father's arrangement.
Being the representative of Hengjian Villa in the martial arts world is indeed more prestigious than doing business.
Who wouldn't want to be the nominal owner of Hengjian Villa and hold all the money of Hengjian Villa?
It’s a pity that my father has so many children that no one can get all of Hengjian Villa.
"The Duke of Zhenguo seems to be greedy and lustful, but what about the King of Youshan? What kind of person is he?" someone asked Yue Zhanchi.
Yue Zhanchi seemed to know Xiao Zhengdu a little better. "Prince Youshan is arrogant and unrestrained. It is said that he also learned some martial arts from a palace master, but it was just fancy moves."
Lou Xiao held back her laughter when she heard this. Fortunately, Xiao Zhengdu didn't hear it, otherwise he would have been very angry.
To be fair, as a prince of the royal family, it is already very good that Xiao Zhengdu can endure hardships and practice martial arts. Xiao Zhengdu is not a show-off.
"I told you guys you are too timid. What are you afraid of? At worst you can just listen to Zhan Chi..."
"Shut up!" Yue Kun shouted, and someone swallowed the words that were about to come out.
Yue Pengyu was puzzled and asked, "Third brother, are you hiding something from me?"
She didn't think it was scary that the Duke of Zhenguo and the King of Youshan came to Hengjian Villa, and she thought everyone in the family would be happy when they came back.
Isn't it glorious to have a distinguished guest come? Why does my father look so worried and afraid of this and that?
"Hahaha, it's okay."
Seeing that they were all laughing, Yue Pengyu became more certain of her guess. She turned to ask her father, hoping to be fully involved in the internal affairs of Hengjian Villa.
"Father, isn't my daughter your child? Why are you hiding something from me?"
Yue Kun said in a deep voice, "There are some things that you'd better not know. Just be the young master of Hengjian Villa. In the future, you will have to uphold the reputation of Hengjian Villa."
After all, Hengjian Villa only has one person like her who is talented and upright and has won the trust of many people in the world.
He used his cane to drive her away, "I have something to discuss with your brother and sister, you should go back and rest first, and I will accompany the two nobles to Yunsu City for a stroll tomorrow."
Yue Pengyu refused, "Father, is there anything else in the family that I should not know? Why do you want me to develop Hengjian Villa but not let me participate in internal affairs?"
She only had the title, but she had no idea what kind of business her family was doing.
The old owner waved her hand and let her go, "Everyone should do their job, only then can we last long."
Yue Pengyu was about to say something, but he saw the old owner turned around and pushed the candlestick.
The bookcase behind him opened to reveal a passageway, which was the place for discussing internal affairs at home.
Yue Pengyu had only seen it but never set foot there.
She watched her father take them in, and finally the mechanism made a sound and the bookcase closed, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
Yue Pengyu was left stunned for a while, but finally he resigned himself to his fate and went back to the house.
