After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

Young Master Lou? What Young Master Lou?

Everyone looked at Tang Jingshan, who was sitting at the head of the table.

When Yue Zi heard the surname Lou, he felt something was wrong. When he saw the person's smug face, he almost jumped off his chair in fright.

"You, what are you doing here?" Yue Zijin looked as if she had seen a ghost.

Lou Xianyue completely ignored that poor scumbag.

From the moment he entered, his gaze was fixed on the girl in red.

From the first moment he saw her, he knew that she would be perfectly suited to red. He had caught a glimpse of her from afar that afternoon, and even just her back view was enough to make his heart flutter. But now that he saw her up close, even his breathing became lighter.

She even thought about how his bright red brocade robe matched her perfectly.

Su Ning was also looking at Lou Xianyue.

He stood in the light and shadow, the warm golden light surrounding him, making him appear even more noble and unparalleled, with a breathtakingly beautiful appearance.

Their eyes met.

Lou Xianyue first looked away, and then walked toward the middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table.

The young man walked with a steady gait, and every move he made was exceptionally polite. However, his pursed lips gave him a sense of aloofness, making him stand out from the lively and warm atmosphere around him. Yet, his red clothes and stunning looks made him the center of attention.

Upon reaching Tang Jingshan at the head of the table, he merely nodded slightly, his posture remaining upright, devoid of any obsequiousness. His voice was clear and melodious, carrying a touch of youthful arrogance, yet his manners were impeccable: "Uncle Tang."

Tang Jingshan was somewhat surprised by Lou Xianyue's address of him as "Uncle Tang." After all, the boy had been quite arrogant that morning. But how old was Tang Jingshan now? How could he possibly hold a grudge against a young man?

He then said in a kind tone, "Xianyue, have you eaten yet? Why don't you stay and have some with us?"

The young man in red nodded, replying crisply, "Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Tang."

Oh, so this is a case of ulterior motives.

Tang Jingshan keenly sensed that the young man in front of him seemed to have come with a purpose. His mother had said in her letter that he was raised in a world of gold and silver and looked down on ordinary things. He was very proud.

Even when she refused the marriage proposal in the afternoon, she was so unyielding, but tonight she actually agreed to his proposal?

Then Yue Zijin watched as the pretty boy he had been secretly cursing that morning walked straight toward him. He could only force a smile, "Young Master Lou, what a coincidence."

"hiss……"

Yue Zijin covered her right cheek. Oh no, she had laughed too hard and aggravated her wound.

"May I ask who this young hero is?"

Lou Xianyue lowered her eyes slightly, her dark eyes seeming to hold some confusion, clearly indicating that she did not want to bring up the entanglement from that morning.

Su Ning wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, but if you looked closely, you could tell that she was using the handkerchief to hide her smile.

As the head of the manor, Tang Jingshan had eyes and ears for almost the entire Lingzhou City, not to mention the purpose of holding the martial arts tournament.

So even though he was on Mount Songyun, he knew perfectly well what had happened in Lingzhou City today.

This includes how Yue Zijin got the injury on his face, and the story of Lou Xianyue bringing Su Ning back.

It can be said that only Tang Xi and Pei Yunlian were kept in the dark today.

Seeing Tang Xi's slightly angry gaze, Tang Jingshan quickly coughed a few times: "Ahem, this Young Master Lou is the young master of Luofu Water Pavilion, and Luofu Water Pavilion and our Sword Casting Manor are old friends."

"It's just that the journey is long, and it's not very convenient for our two families to visit each other. Xi'er, is this your first time meeting Young Master Lou?"

Actually, Yue Zijin had intended to explain things to them today, but after Su Ning was pulled away by Tang Xi, he lost interest in talking about what happened that morning.

He had planned to give that guy surnamed Lou a good dressing down after they all got together, but he never expected that the guy would actually show up at their door and even stay at the Sword Casting Manor.

Yue Zi felt like he was stuck with a pile of shit, and the other party was trying to deny it and pretend not to know him, right?

"Hehe, I am Yue Zijin, one of the Thirteen Heroes of Baicao Village, Shuilian Township, Zuifeng County. I wonder if this young master has heard of me?"

Yue Zijin gritted her teeth and stared at the person in front of her with a forced smile.

Lou Xianyue pondered for a moment, a hint of amusement flashing in his dark eyes, and a slight smile curved his lips: "Never heard of it."

What a poor wretch! I wonder which remote, impoverished place he came from.

Everyone stared at the two people who were locked in a fierce battle, and even those who wanted to interject didn't know how to start.

Yue Zi was about to retort.

But Su Ning tugged at his sleeve under the table.

Then she looked at the young man in red, a gentle smile playing on her lips, "Young Master Lou, we meet again."

Lou Xianyue's gaze then shifted to Su Ning's face. He first raised an eyebrow, giving her a feignedly indifferent glance, before unconsciously taking half a step closer to her. "Miss Su, what a coincidence."

Seeing that Su Ning's attitude was not as cold and hard as it had been that morning, he knew that she was no longer angry, so he became bolder in his speech, "I didn't expect that Miss Su's friend would be the young lady of the Sword Casting Manor."

"It seems your eyesight is too poor to see the moon clearly."

"I didn't expect to meet Young Master Lou here. It must be fate that we meet. Please take a seat, Young Master." Su Ning smiled at him.

Lou Xianyue almost couldn't hold back the smile that had just appeared in his eyes, but he forcefully suppressed it again.

He then looked around the dining table. The two seats next to Su Ning were occupied, and if he were to sit down, he would have to sit next to that icy-faced boy.

The man and woman opposite her were clearly the eldest daughter of the Tang family, but she didn't recognize the man. He looked gentle, but Lou Xianyue felt that he was more than just what he appeared to be.

Lou Xianyue hadn't even considered the position opposite him, and as for Su Ning's side, he hadn't even thought about the position next to that poor slut.

But he wouldn't be willing to sit next to that icy-faced kid.

After Su Ning spoke, Yue Zijin stopped talking. Since all the seats next to Su Su were already full, he could go wherever he wanted.

It would be disgusting to sit at the same table as a peacock with its tail feathers spread out.

But this fellow only became more brazen, bypassing Su Ning and standing in front of Pei Yunlian. His gaze slowly swept over Pei Yunlian before he softly asked, "Would this gentleman be so kind as to offer me his seat?"

"After all, Miss Su is the only person I recognize at this table."

"Snapped!"

The chopsticks were slammed heavily onto the table. Before Pei Yunlian could speak, Yue Zijin was already furious. "You, surnamed Lou, are you here to cause trouble today?"

Although it has only been a day since this morning, this Lou Xianyue has already become the person he hates the most, and even Yu Xinglai has to step aside.

Lou Xianyue, however, seemed completely unperturbed. Instead, she turned her head and calmly glanced at the furious young man, her eyes innocent and pure. "Young Master Yue, what makes you say that? After all, you know everyone at the table."

"I've only just arrived at the beginning of the month and only know Miss Su. Moreover, it seems that everyone has quite a few opinions about me. Is this how the Sword Forging Manor treats its guests?"

His words first mocked Yue Zijin for his lack of manners, and then put Tang Xi in a very difficult position.

After saying that, Lou Xianyue turned her gaze to Tang Xi across from her, looking at her with a half-smile.

It turned out that Tang Jingshan, who had been sitting at the head of the table, had already left the table sometime earlier. Before leaving, he glanced at Tang Xi, wanting to let these younger generation members warmly welcome him.

But now she always feels like her father already knows what's going to happen next, leaving her with this mess to clean up.

As the eldest daughter of the Sword Forging Manor, Tang Xi had followed Tang Jingshan since childhood, so she was naturally much more composed than Yue Zijin.

Moreover, she knew that Luofu Water Pavilion held an extraordinary position in the righteous path, and she had heard of Lou Xianyue's reputation, but this was the first time she had met him.

The other party certainly didn't seem like someone from the martial arts world, but rather like a pampered young master from a noble family. However, Tang Xi didn't dare to underestimate him at all.

But the other party was too arrogant. From the beginning, they treated them like air. How could he run wild in the Sword Forging Manor?

Tang Xi was about to ridicule him when she saw Su Ning shake her head slightly at her.

This left her speechless and unsure of what to say, "Um...Young Master Lou..."
