Chapter 539 Deceiving the Old Man
Shen Zhao trembled. Did Uncle Shen think he had taken a liking to her?
Thinking this way, Shen Zhao naturally asked Guagua as well.
[Guagua, does Uncle Shen have a wife?]
I have a feeling he might have a crush on me.
To prove he wasn't narcissistic, Shen Zhao quickly began to demonstrate.
"Guagua, I'm not bad looking either."
The worst part was that Uncle Shen kept peeking at me and would smile at me from time to time.
That smile, how should I put it, was extremely awkward.
So it's really not just me overthinking!
Guagua exclaimed "Ah!" and followed its host's gaze.
I did indeed notice Uncle Shen withdrawing his gaze.
However, Guagua caught that disdainful look later.
Okay, Guagua is confirmed.
They don't have any perverted thoughts about their host.
At this moment, Uncle Shen started coughing.
And then suddenly he said,
"Young Master, you just smiled."
This old servant is truly gratified; you never used to smile.
I specifically emphasized the words 'not to smile,' understand?
He was doing this for the young master he had watched grow up, not out of any twisted motives!
Li Guang also offered a fitting explanation.
"Uncle Shen, I understand how good you are to me."
After going back and forth, Guagua finally understood.
Host, you're overthinking it.
Uncle Shen was just indifferent to Li Guang before.
He doesn't like to smile, he's like a stiff-faced person.
Uncle Shen is a typical example of someone who's more worried than the emperor, which is why he's so worried he can't eat.
So, Uncle Shen probably just feels grateful that you were willing to sit down and chat with his young master!
Guagua was unaware that her words had offended two people.
After all, the two people over there had already released a lot of cold air!
Shen Zhao: [Guagua, you're the one with the ideas.]
I almost misunderstood the two of them.
It's better to just watch the show.
Please continue!
Guagua: [Speaking of Lu Fengniang, the child in her belly is definitely not that sect leader's.]
The words may be crude, but the principle is sound. The sect leader is over sixty years old; naturally, he can't keep up!
Lu Fengniang did indeed cheat on him.
They've kept it a secret so well that no one knows.
But the sect leader's grown-up sons and daughters are no pushovers.
They think the same way you do, host.
They were convinced that Lu Fengniang had betrayed their old father.
Everyone's trying to find evidence to bring Lu Fengniang down.
Shen Zhao: It's not that I underestimate them.
That old man had lived for so many years; he was at least a master.
Lu Fengniang was right under his nose, what could she possibly be hiding from him?
And that old man probably did some investigation in private.
Only then will they believe that Lu Fengniang is carrying this child!
Guagua: [Host, you have a real knack for manipulating people's hearts.]
The old man did have some self-awareness.
After all, his youngest son is already in his twenties.
But there are always stories of people having children late in life.
Only a minority, so the old man naturally wanted to be strong.
A private investigation revealed that Lu Fengniang was not having an affair, which put their minds at ease.
They treated Lu Fengniang even better, which only made her sons even more hostile!
Shen Zhao: [Haha, I'm really curious how Lu Fengniang did it?]
They even fooled the old man; they're really good at it!
Guagua: [This is also simple.]
Guagua will tell you later.
Now let's go back to the sons. What they found out was the same as what their father did.
Lu Fengniang was honest and dutiful, and only wanted to be a good wife to her sect leader.
However, this is not what they want.
Since there's no adulterer, let's just make one up.
It took these grown sons some effort to finally find this person.
After all, she had to fool her own father!
