C127 Stunning

Luo Mingshi reckoned that if not for First Madame controlling her, she would have left this place a long time ago.

At this moment, seeing that the First Madame also had a helpless look on her face and was looking towards the direction where Luo Mingxue was, Luo Mingshi immediately went up to the First Madame and said, "If Mother is worried, I will go look for Big Sister."

She always had an indescribable sense of trust in Luo Mingshi, anything that Luo Mingshi was willing to help or agree to, she would definitely be able to be at ease.

At this moment, he also nodded his head in agreement. He then said, "The banquet will start soon. You two sisters shouldn't be late."

Luo Mingshi agreed to all of them, then stood up and bowed to the ladies, said a few words of apology, and was about to leave.

When the other wives saw this, they could only sigh in praise. From the moment they knew of Luo Mingshi's identity, many of the wives had more or less looked at Luo Mingshi with contempt. That gaze was something Luo Mingshi could understand with a single glance, because that pair of eyes had clearly stated: "Heh, a concubine."

Luo Mingshi pretended that she could not see or smile, and did not feel inferior due to others looking at him, nor did he feel restricted by their opinions. All along, she had behaved in a respectful manner, and was very graceful and generous, with an imposing manner that said that she was the noble daughter of a princess, and combined with what Madam Luo had said at the start.

She was probably speaking the truth. After raising the Second Miss as a direct descendant, no one dared to look down on Luo Mingshi, and upon seeing that she was about to leave, they immediately bowed, full of courtesy, obediently and beautifully. That one night, following the appearance of Luo Mingshi, there were really a lot of people who were scheming to be the matchmaker for their son's family's appropriate age relatives.

Luo Mingshi bowed and was about to leave, but was stopped by someone. When she slowly turned her head, she realised that the woman who was around her age was standing in her seat, and was actually taking the initiative to meet her. "Second Miss Luo, are you willing to travel together with me?"

After Luo Mingshi heard this, he quickly sized her up. She had a pointy little face, hazy almond eyes, and her waist seemed to be unbearably small, she only looked at Luo Mingshi and could not help but feel a sense of pity, but in an instant, that feeling disappeared.

It had to be said that Luo Mingshi had seen many of these types of women in her many years of living in the Jiangnan. Why would a truly timid woman speak so loudly in front of everyone? At this moment, she was acting so timid that her eyes were hazy with tears. Who was she showing it to?

It was as if she would immediately cry if Luo Mingshi didn't agree.

Seeing that everyone had followed her call to look towards Luo Mingshi, and were all waiting for her reaction, under such circumstances, to shout out the request in front of the crowd, it seemed like they were trying to force Luo Mingshi to agree. From this point, Luo Mingshi had reason to doubt her motives.

First Madame was already impatiently frowning, but at this moment, she didn't know what to say.

Luo Mingshi guessed that the person should be the woman's mother, if not why would he put on a show of kindness at this moment?

What a joke.

The scene froze for a split-second. Then, it was quickly followed by Luo Mingshi's laughter as she replied, "Sure." The ice disintegrated.

The woman, on the other hand, happily and happily walked towards Luo Mingshi, urging him on: "I saw that your Big Sis was heading over there, we can look for her together."

With that, he pointed towards where Luo Mingxue had disappeared to. Luo Mingshi then casually raised her eyes to look, and after that, she started walking towards a certain direction.

Since you are so diligent in luring me into this trap, how can I refute your honor?

As he thought about this, he casually asked: "Are you very familiar with my eldest sister?"

The woman seemed very nervous and Luo Mingshi only asked in a soft voice but the woman's reaction was big. She was so scared that her head immediately shrank as well: "No, I'm not very familiar with her."

Heh, how honest, Luo Mingshi thought in her heart, but on the surface, she pretended to be unintentional and said: "Oh, I still don't know your name."

After the woman heard this, she was stunned for a while before replying, "My name is Cheng Yingying." Seeing that Luo Mingshi was still looking on, she introduced herself again like pouring beans, "My father is a first rank tutor."

After Luo Mingshi heard what she said, she suddenly remembered the arrogant look on the woman's face.

As he continued forward, he arrived at a fork in the road.

One side led to a firefly pavilion. Looking from afar, one could see that the other side was bustling with noise and excitement, while the other side was darker.

Luo Mingshi looked to both sides and saw that Chen Yingying had become even more nervous. He pretended to be suspicious: "My sister did not know which way she went."

When Cheng Yingying heard this, he immediately pointed to the other side that looked to be more desolate, and said: "Miss Luo seemed to be in a bad mood just now, so you should be heading towards a more secluded location."

Luo Mingshi wanted to laugh when she heard that, but saying that Luo Mingxue had a happy and quiet personality, wasn't that just spouting nonsense.

Luo Mingshi intentionally said: "Miss Cheng, you might not understand my sister's personality, but my sister likes lively places. The busier it is, the happier she is."

With that, she moved to the side opposite of where Cheng Yingying was pointing, but when Chen Yingying saw, she became anxious. Luo Mingshi heard a sound coming from behind and turned back to look, only to see that Cheng Yingying had fallen to the ground.

At this moment, he was lying on the ground, looking at her with misty eyes.

After Luo Mingshi saw this, she couldn't help but take another look at the lady. After that fall, she had truly heard the sound of bones dislocated, and had truly taken ruthless measures against him. Yet, he didn't go forward to help her. She had humiliated him in such a manner, so why should she pity her?

Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but narrow. Just what was the reason for him trying to trick her into going over there? Why did he want to meet her for the first time?

Luo Mingshi crossed her arms in front of his chest, and just coldly stood there looking at her without supporting her. Her posture was extremely indecent, but there were only her and Cheng Yingying here, so she did not care.

Seeing her like this, Cheng Yingying was actually very surprised. Shouldn't Luo Mingshi rush forward to help her at this time?

Furthermore, she felt that Luo Mingshi had completely changed into a different person at the moment, and the current Luo Mingshi's eyes, seemed to be able to see through her with a single glance, causing her to not dare to look him in the eye.

The unsettled feeling in her heart grew stronger and stronger. Just when she was about to let it go like this, when this person seemed to be even more difficult to mess with than that person, Luo Mingshi finally spoke: "Speak, what do you want?"

could not believe that Luo Mingxue would come to this kind of place. She then looked at Cheng Yingying, who was leading the way with a limp, and felt that she did not believe it at all.

Ever since Cheng Yingying had stated her intentions to bring Luo Mingshi to meet someone, she had thought that Luo Mingshi would reject him.
