At this moment, the meals for the two gentlemen with jade-like faces were also served. He and the burly man ate while toasting with wine. Both of them had remarkable drinking capacities, and in addition, the burly man had a voice that carried exceptionally well. For a time, it seemed as if the entire second floor was filled with his voice

At this point, he looked at Yang Lan with eager eyes, waiting for her response. Yang Lan thought for a moment and said, "Alright then." Young Master Wang immediately broke into a broad smile.

The young man immediately sensed his murderous intent and could not help but turn his head. In his墨玉-like eyes, a gaze as tangible as substance coldly glanced at Young Master Wang. Just that one glance made him shiver violently. Following that, the anger in Young Master Wang's heart surged even higher: how could he have ever endured such humiliation in his life? Yet unexpectedly, within a short span of time, he encountered two individuals from the martial world who did not regard him with any respect!

When he spoke, several young men were like invisible people, silent and obedient to him. However, judging by their clothing, they did not appear to be servants. Yang Lan could not help but glance at them before turning to Young Master Wang and asking, "Aren't you busy?"

Yang Lan's interest was immediately piqued. She stood up and ran to the staircase, looking down. She saw a stunning woman, dressed in a fiery red gauze outfit, slowly ascending the stairs.

Yang Lan tilted her head and thought for a moment, then pouted her lips and suddenly said excitedly: "I heard that there are quite a few fun places in this original city, so I will play here for a couple of days first"

From time to time, people from the martial arts world, equipped with swords and blades, pass through downstairs. Yang Lan watches with great interest. Noticing her curiosity about everything, Young Master Wang, who has been paying attention to her, gently said: "Miss Yuan, is there anywhere you would like to go and see? After we finish our meal, we can take a stroll."

The handsome young man with a jade-like face darkened his expression, emanating a chill from his body. The burly black man sitting opposite him was currently mumbling while holding a wine jar, clearly already drunk. He had also consumed a fair amount, yet his complexion remained unchanged, not even flushed, and his pair of bright eyes shone as clear as autumn water

At this moment, Yang Lan also slowly began to awaken. Memories, after all, were both distant and hazy for her, as if they were events that had occurred in a past life. There were no longer many ripples.

His gaze darkened, and the intent to kill grew stronger

They indeed had important matters to attend to, thus when Yang Lan asked this question, several young men simultaneously glanced at Young Master Wang. Their gazes carried an implicit sense of urgency. However, with a beauty before him, Young Master Wang prioritized the beauty above all else. He smiled and said, "Of course, I am not busy." As soon as he finished speaking, the young men, along with the little girl Yue, all wore expressions of helplessness and frustration, barely suppressing long sighs.

At that moment, a delicate voice called out from downstairs: "Young Master with the Jade Face, have you arrived at my place and not come to see me even once?" The voice was soft and melodious, incredibly enchanting

Yang Lan let out a soft exclamation, unable to help but smile gently, thinking to herself: the expressions of these people are truly amusing. She excitedly observed these individuals, her large eyes beneath the veil sparkling with even more excitement.

The woman was evidently very pleased, and she twisted her body even more vigorously, with almost every movement being highly seductive. While calling out Chang Yu's name, her enchanting eyes darted around, exuding an unparalleled allure

Seeing his happy smile, Yang Lan tilted her head again, observing him while secretly wondering: I haven't said anything, so why is he so happy?

The young man is about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a plain white long robe, which surpasses even the most luxurious garments. His long black hair is tied back with a crown, cascading down his back. His features are exceptionally perfect, and his demeanor exudes a cool elegance that is extraordinary. In Yang Lan's eyes, he is indeed a first-rate handsome man.

She was startled, somewhat puzzled as to why she had this thought. She quickly turned her head and directed her gaze downstairs

Young Master Liu and the others were clearly very wary of the Jade-faced Young Master. They exchanged glances, tossed a handful of silver coins, and proceeded downstairs. As they passed by Yang Lan, Young Master Liu couldn't help but turn his head to look at her for a moment. When his gaze met Young Master Wang's, both of them felt a chill in their eyes and their expressions darkened.

In a moment of daze, she looked at the boy, her gaze revealing a hint of bewilderment. Young Master Wang had always focused all his thoughts on her, and upon seeing her expression, he couldn't help but feel a surge of resentment. His gaze, filled with murderous intent, was also directed at the boy.

Seeing that he did not respond, the woman downstairs softly murmured: "Chang Yu, are you really so heartless? Have you disregarded me? I have traveled a thousand miles in search of you, yet here you are, not even bothering to say a word to me, nor willing to meet me. How cruel you are." Her voice was both gentle and enchanting, making one’s heart race.

This person looks very familiar, as if I had seen a face and heard a voice like this a long, long time ago. It feels like it was ages ago, as if it were from a past life, or perhaps just a dream.

Young Master Wang spoke with a warm smile, saying: "Is that so? Just in time, we also have matters to attend to in the original city. My family has some properties in the original city as well. If Miss Yuan does not mind, could we go together?" Seeing that Yang Lan did not respond, he hurriedly added, "Since we are all traveling outside, it would be good to look out for each other."

Yang Lan shook her head, her gaze involuntarily turning once again towards the jade-faced young man. As she looked over, she happened to catch a glimpse of the young man's profile. Facing that handsome and striking visage, reminiscent of majestic mountains and rivers, Yang Lan felt a persistent itch in her heart, yearning for the possibility of gazing at him like this forever

At this moment, the burly man approached a table and shouted loudly, "Waiter, hurry up!" His voice shook the house as if it were trembling. The young man smiled slightly and said gently, "Brother He, you are still as impatient as ever." His voice was like the sound of ice and jade clashing, incredibly melodious

As soon as the sound emerged, everyone fell silent. The people upstairs stood up to look down, while many others fixed their gaze on the jade-faced young master

She turned her head, focusing all her attention on the fruit in front of her, slowly beginning to eat. She did not notice that after she withdrew her attention, Young Master Wang's complexion improved significantly, while the jade-faced young man cast her a meaningful glance, his eyes filled with disdain and contempt

He cast a faint glance at the crowd upstairs, and with that glance, the few calm and composed young women from the martial world were already dazzled, while the young men all turned pale.

She walked extremely slowly, with each step her body twisted like a snake, making her already outstanding figure even more breathtaking. Dressed in a sheer garment, her bosom was partially exposed. With every step she took, her bosom would bounce slightly, causing many onlookers to swallow hard, their eyes practically glued to her.

Watching Young Master Liu and his companions turn to leave, Young Master Wang redirected all his attention back to Miss Yuan. He smiled and said, "Miss Yuan," as Yang Lan raised her head, her large eyes blinking at him, resembling spring flowers, her expression innocent, though it was difficult to see clearly. Young Master Wang continued with a smile, "Where is Miss Yuan thinking of going?"

Young Master Wang, seeing Yang Lan gazing at him, felt his handsome face flush, and with a more affectionate gaze, said: "Miss Yuan, whatever you desire, I shall procure it for you."

Hearing his voice, Yang Lan finally opened her sleepy eyes and turned to look. Upon seeing his face, Yang Lan suddenly felt a stir in her heart, as if a distant memory had awakened.
