Chapter 534: Chapter 533: His Sister is My Sister_1
 

“Master, Yin’er wants to go and see the excitement too.”

Little Kingfisher, who was even more curious than her, also insisted on joining.

Little Kingfisher rarely found new amusements like this. Her gossip-loving heart was eager to take flight, hovering above the street, her excited little eyes gleaming with excitement.

“Go ahead!”

Lin Qingluo smiled: “Keep a close eye on Xue Baozhu. Don’t let her play any tricks and cause Fourth Brother to suffer in secret.”

“Sure.”

Little Kingfisher was extremely arrogant: “As long as I’m here, she won’t dare cause trouble.”

“Everyone, could you please make some room for us to pass?”

Lin Jinyun no longer hesitated, changing the horse’s direction and heading back towards Duke of Zhen’s residence.

The onlooking crowd automatically moved aside, leaving a clear path for the siblings to ride through.

“Let’s go.”

Lin Jinlong had already grown impatient. He rode forward, taking Fourth Brother’s position and leading the way for his sister.

The fake granddaughter left, and the curious onlookers, who had been craning their necks to enjoy the show, had lost all interest. It was with regret that they used their eager gazes to bid farewell to the real granddaughter.

From beginning to end, Lin Qingluo maintained her composure and grace, leaving a deep impression on everyone with her extraordinary demeanor.

“Wow, He Yao, you’re really something, becoming friends with the pearl in the palm of Duke of Zhen’s residence.”

In front of the second-floor window of a street-side tavern, a group of young nobles with shining eyes watched the Lin siblings ride away, still unsatisfied as they withdrew their gazes.

“Of course, who am I? Jinyu and I have been close friends since we were little. His sister is my sister.”

He Yao showed off with pride, oblivious to his mistake until days later when Jinyu returned from the countryside and beat him up, finally waking him up.

At the beginning of June, when the flowers were in full bloom, it was the best time of year at the farm estate outside Capital City.

By the time the Lin siblings arrived, Luo Zhan and Wang Rong were already waiting. Seeing Lin Qingluo from afar, they were overjoyed and greeted her with a smile.

“Little Qingluo, what a coincidence! It’s rare to meet you outside Duke of Zhen’s residence.”

Luo Zhan hinted with a teasing wink.

Lin Qingluo dismounted and laughingly replied: “Brother Zhan, you’re really well-informed. You already knew about something that happened just a moment ago.”

“Haha, the scouts from Thousand-Mechanism Pavilion are everywhere, Little Qingluo, you should know that.”

Luo Zhan was not ashamed, but proud, thick-skinned, as he continued the conversation smoothly.

Wang Rong felt embarrassed on Luo Zhan’s behalf: “Miss Lin, please don’t mind. We just happened to pass by and unintentionally came across this situation. There was no intention of deliberately prying into your privacy.”

Lin Qingluo raised her eyebrows slightly: “Just now, someone mentioned the benefits of my Frostbite Ointment and said many kind words. Was it you?”

“It was me.”

Wang Rong was slightly surprised: “Miss Lin, your hearing is truly admirable.”

Lin Qingluo’s smile was warm: “Brother Rong, there’s no need to be so formal, just call me Qingluo.”

“Little Qingluo, Brother Rong is honored to be acquainted with you.”

Wang Rong amiably extended a bow.

His humor set him apart, making him a skilled raconteur.

From time to time, he would utter a few stale jokes, making everyone laugh.

“Little Qingluo, Brother Zhan is fortunate to meet you here at the estate today. I’m treating you all to lunch.”

Luo Zhan took advantage of the occasion to make a joke: “Brother Meng, eat as much as you want. Mutton soup and meat skewers are on me.”

“Great, there’re meat skewers to eat.”

Wang Meng’s stomach had already grown hungry during the conversation, rumbling twice.

“Hahaha.”

Luo Zhan was amused by the sound: “Brother Meng’s appetite is truly astonishing.”
