Chapter 46: Blind Date (Part 1)
“Second Miss?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng immediately realized he had overthought things.
It wasn’t the Eldest Young Miss, Lu Miaoge.
It was the Eldest Young Miss’s younger sister.
The one with black stockings he had seen once at Bamboo Heart Lake.
It made sense. Lu Miaoge was not only beautiful and talented, but also a Talisman Master. Under normal circumstances, how could the Lu Family marry her off, let alone to him?
But marrying the Second Miss to him was still quite something.
After all, this Second Miss not only possessed a 6th Grade Spiritual Root but was also the Head of the Lu Family’s daughter.
It seemed that his becoming a First-Order Middle-Grade Talisman Master and his demonstrated Talismans talent had prompted the Lu Family to invest heavily, intending to bind him completely to the Lu Family.
Recalling the unforgettable long legs in black stockings and high heels, Lu Changsheng nodded and cupped his hands, saying, “Butler Lu, I will definitely be on time tomorrow.”
Even though he guessed that the Lu Family’s move was to deepen his ties with them and completely bind him to the Family, Lu Changsheng felt no aversion.
In fact, he was quite willing.
It wasn’t because of the Second Miss’s appearance, her black stockings, high heels, and long legs.
Rather, the previous outing for the three-year agreement had made him realize that this world was far more dangerous and difficult than he had imagined.
Given his Heart-Nature, it would be difficult for him to thrive in such a world.
Moreover, he now had a family to support.
Thus, Lu Changsheng had completely come to terms with it.
Since he had the System for having many children and many blessings, he would just lie low in the Lu Family for now.
Once he had many children, and they grew up, and he achieved a Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage, then he would consider future matters.
Although he was living under someone else’s roof, due to his Talismans talent, and after moving to Qingzhu Valley, the Lu Family had treated him well these past few years.
It was a truly righteous cultivation Family.
It was certainly safer than fending for himself outside.
If he married the Head of the Lu Family’s daughter this time, he would not only gain a wife with a Spiritual Root, but he would also be truly regarded as one of their own by the Lu Family.
He could also stay in the Lu Family more assuredly, without worries, and continue to lie low.
As for leaving the Lu Family, he still thought about leaving to stand on his own, but for now, it seemed quite distant, and Lu Changsheng was too lazy to think that much.
When that time truly came, if the Lu Family had treated him well, he wouldn’t treat them poorly if he left.
“Good.”
Butler Lu kindly patted Lu Changsheng’s shoulder and said, “The Head of the Lu Family has already spoken with the Second Miss, so as long as you perform well tomorrow, this matter will be settled, and there won won’t be any problems.”
“Yes.”
Lu Changsheng nodded in response and saw Butler Lu out.
But his mind couldn’t help but recall Lu Miaohuan’s noble and cold temperament.
He remembered how she had once reprimanded him, saying, ‘Stare again and I’ll gouge out your eyes,’ just because he had looked at her black stockings a few times.
He felt that this Second Miss’s Heart-Nature might be difficult to deal with, and tomorrow’s meeting would be hard to predict.
“I hope the Head of the Lu Family truly has settled it, and this Second Miss’s Heart-Nature has also mellowed a bit, not as bad as I imagine.”
“Otherwise, even with a 6th Grade Spiritual Root and being the Head of the Lu Family’s daughter, it can only be dismissed.”
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and exhaled, returning to the courtyard.
Although he was very willing to accept this marriage, he wouldn’t go so far as to shamelessly beg her to marry him just for the sake of having children with a 6th Grade Spiritual Root.
Not to mention his pride and dignity, he now had four wives, six concubines, and two favored courtesans, so he truly didn’t have that much mental energy to cater to someone with a temper.
Adding such a wife to the back courtyard could also easily disrupt the balance and stability of his harem, leading to an improper husband’s authority.
“Husband, did Butler Lu come for some good news?”
At this moment, one of his wives looked at Lu Changsheng and asked.
“Hehe, your Husband has recently made a Breakthrough in the Dao of Talismans, advancing to a Mid-Grade First-Order Talisman.”
“So Butler Lu came to discuss some matters with me.”
Lu Changsheng said.
He didn’t mention that Butler Lu had come to talk about the arranged marriage.
After all, telling his wives that he was going on a blind date tomorrow felt very awkward.
It was better to wait until it was confirmed before saying anything.
“What, Husband has already advanced to a First-Order Middle-Grade Talisman Master!”
“Husband is truly amazing!”
“Husband has already advanced to a Middle-Grade Talisman Master, so won’t he be able to become a Second-Order Talisman Master in the future!”
“Husband has worked hard these past few days!”
The other wives nearby also heard this, and their beautiful eyes immediately lit up, their faces filled with pleasant surprise. They looked at Lu Changsheng with joy, their eyes full of admiration and love.
Ever since Lu Changsheng became a Talisman Master, they had also learned about Talisman Masters.
They knew that every step of advancement was difficult, and now that Lu Changsheng had progressed further, it meant that his status in the Lu Family would also advance further.
And they, too, would gain prestige through their Husband.
The little ones nearby, though not understanding what was said, seeing their mothers’ expressions, also cheered loudly: “Wow, Daddy is great! Daddy is so amazing!”
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but smile at this scene.
Having his wives and children look at him with such affection and adoration truly felt wonderful.
It greatly satisfied his male chauvinistic tendencies.
That night.
Afterwards!
Afterwards!!
Afterwards!!!
Afterwards——
Lu Changsheng, holding the women who nestled beside him, full of tenderness and unusually proactive and diligent tonight, felt that the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Technique needed more attention in this regard.
Early the next morning, Butler Lu, as if worried Lu Changsheng might forget or oversleep, came to wake him.
Lu Changsheng tidied himself up a bit and then walked with Butler Lu towards Bamboo Heart Abode.
Bamboo Heart Abode was not far from Bamboo Heart Lake, surrounded by lush green grass and blooming flowers, with a very beautiful environment.
Except for the lively first day of each month during the trade fair, it was usually quiet and serene here.
“The Second Miss will arrive shortly; please wait a moment.”
“The Second Miss’s Heart-Nature is actually quite simple. You just need to humor her more and agree with what she says.”
Butler Lu was very invested in this matter, giving Lu Changsheng instructions before leaving.
He went to wait outside, also to prevent anyone from coming nearby and disrupting the arranged meeting.
After all, Lu Yuanding was very concerned about this matter and had given him specific instructions.
Lu Changsheng nodded upon hearing this, walked to the stone table in the courtyard, sat down, took out a set of purple clay tea ware, and began brewing spiritual tea, waiting patiently.
About half an hour later, Lu Changsheng heard a crisp, alluring, rhythmic ‘tap-tap-tap’ sound.
He looked up at the sound and saw a tall, elegant figure, as proud and cold as a peacock, gracefully walking towards him.
It was his blind date for today, Lu Miaohuan.
Today, Lu Miaohuan had clearly dressed up specially, with exquisite makeup visible on her face.
She wore a fitted dress in a blend of dark black and deep blue, with faint starlight shimmering and flowing on it, as if draped in the night sky and stars, truly stunning.
This black and blue starry dress was much more conservative than the black and gold embroidered long dress he had seen last time, only revealing her elegant, fair swan neck and half of her collarbone and shoulders.
But the curvaceous figure, with prominent bust and hips, encased within the dress, still made one’s imagination run wild.
“Tap-tap-tap——”
Lu Miaohuan walked gracefully, her two beautiful legs in black stockings faintly visible beneath the hem of her skirt. Underneath the skirt, her fair feet wore a pair of luxurious high heels, adorned with nebula patterns, matching her dress. Each step produced a crisp tapping sound, leaving behind specks of starlight.
Lu Changsheng quietly watched this exquisite figure, graceful with every step, slowly approach.
After all, beauty should be appreciated.
This Second Miss had specially dressed up; if he were to ignore her and not appreciate her, wouldn’t he be letting down her good intentions?
It must be said that when one’s appearance reaches a certain level, it is about demeanor and temperament.
This Second Miss before him had a tall and graceful figure, a cold and noble face, exuding an aura of aloof nobility that kept others at a distance, an aura that made one feel awestruck and self-conscious.
But at the same time, it also easily aroused a desire for conquest.
“Lu Changsheng greets Young Miss Miaohuan.”
Lu Changsheng withdrew his gaze, stood up, and gracefully cupped his hands in greeting to Lu Miaohuan.
Although the other party was stunning and alluring, perfectly aligning with his aesthetic, Lu Changsheng had also experienced much and been tempered, so he still possessed this level of composure.
