Chapter 809 - 651: Do You Really Think She Loves You? (2)
An attendant approached and said, "Young Master, lunch is ready. Please, you and Miss Xun, proceed to the dining room to eat."
Yue Lin looked at Shen Tang, "You’ve been traveling all the way here, you haven’t eaten much. Let’s go eat something together."
"Alright."
The dining table was filled with a sumptuous lunch.
The attendants stood respectfully on both sides.
Several young males among them secretly glanced at this beautiful female, a faint blush appearing on their faces.
They had seen many noble females before, some had even served them, but it was the first time they had seen someone so beautiful and noble, causing their hearts to race and their gaze unable to move away.
What intrigued them more than this was the identity of this female.
After all, they had been with Yue Lin for several years, yet it was the first time they saw the Young Master bring a female back.
The two looked like a perfect couple, just sitting together was pleasing to the eyes.
This female... must be someone the Young Master likes.
The attendants were secretly excited, as if they had caught onto a big scoop, whispering privately about Shen Tang’s identity and the relationship between the two.
"In my opinion, there must be something between those two. Otherwise, with the Young Master’s cold and aloof nature, how could he possibly bring a stranger from a foreign clan here?"
Even though Yue Lin had a good relationship with the Yue Family’s Family Head and Madam, as the Young Master of the Moon Clan, he carried heavy burdens from a young age, sometimes the pressure was overwhelming. That’s why he bought this property to occasionally come and stay.
This place, not even the Family Head knows about, is considered Yue Lin’s secret base. Anyone he brings here must be very close or important to him.
"So, do you think this female likes the Young Master? It seems like there’s still some distance between them, not that warm closeness between partners. Instead, she seems genuinely concerned about the injured Leopard Beast..."
"The Young Master has such a noble status and is so handsome, which female wouldn’t like him!" someone confidently declared, "In my opinion, she must like him too, just a bit reserved."
"I heard the Young Master mention that Leopard Beast is that female’s brother."
"Oh, that explains a lot. I think the two match well, maybe this could work out."
"Perhaps the good news is near, if the Young Master is happy, we might benefit too."
The attendants privately discussed this, deciding to help the Young Master further bond their relationship.
So, when serving Shen Tang later, they deliberately referred to her as "Madam."
Listening to this title made Shen Tang’s scalp tingle. But since her current public identity was indeed as Yue Lin’s partner, she could only awkwardly smile, not saying much.
Shen Tang wasn’t concerned about other matters, her only hope was for Jin to wake up soon. It had been three days without any signs from him.
Every time Yue Lin came, he saw her sitting by the bed, gazing at the comatose man, feeling both envious and a little pained inside.
"It’s getting late, you should rest. I can watch over him for you."
Shen Tang shook her head, "I’m fine. I have a feeling Jin will wake up soon, and I want him to see me first when he does."
"...You’re very good to him."
With gentle eyebrows and eyes, Shen Tang softly said, "He is my partner, the one I love. What he has done for me far exceeds what I’ve done for him."
"Xiao Fu, there is something... I want to talk to you about, regarding Jin." Yue Lin looked at her, somewhat conflicted, unsure of how to broach the topic.
"Hmm?" Shen Tang turned to him, her eyes questioning.
Then, low coughs sounded by the bed. She immediately turned around, joyfully saying, "Ah Jin, you’re awake!"
Jin only felt a headache and had not fully regained consciousness when a warm figure leaped into his arms.
He looked at the beautiful face in front of him, his Adam’s apple bobbing, as he held her tighter and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
Yue Lin watched from the side, feeling a bit out of place, he cleared his throat, and faintly spoke, "Since you’re awake, Xiao Fu won’t need to worry anymore."
It was then Jin noticed there was a bystander in the room, frowning as he glanced at Yue Lin, thinking, why are he and this guy tangled together again?
Feeling a little embarrassed, Shen Tang got up from his arms, quickly poured a cup of water, handed it to him to soothe his throat, and explained, "Thanks to Young Master Yue Lin’s help, we rescued you this time. Now the outside is hunting for us everywhere, so we’re temporarily staying at his secondary residence."
Although Jin didn’t like Yue Lin, he wasn’t ungrateful, nodding slightly at him, "Thank you. If you ever need any help, you can come to me."
Yue Lin said, "No need to be courteous."
After all, he did it for Xun Fu, not for this Leopard Beast.
Yue Lin looked at Shen Tang, "You’ve been taking care of him these days without properly resting, it’s late, go to sleep first."
Upon hearing that, Jin immediately felt a pang of guilt. Every time something happened to him, she was the one by his side, always making her worry.
"I’m fine now, you should get some sleep."
Initially, Shen Tang didn’t feel tired, but after seeing Jin regain consciousness, a wave of fatigue suddenly washed over her, along with the tense emotions of the past few days being released.
So, she nodded, "Then I’ll sleep first. You guys should rest early too."
Both males responded simultaneously.
Once the female left the room, the atmosphere inside changed.
From outside, the voice of an attendant could faintly be heard, "Madam, if you need a massage or care before bed, just let me know."
Jin frowned, Madam? Were they addressing Tangtang?
What had happened during the days he was unconscious?
With a stony face, Jin got out of bed, directly confronting Yue Lin, "When did she become your Madam?"
Yue Lin smiled slightly, "Didn’t you know? She agreed to be my partner."
"Impossible, she doesn’t like you!"
"Why not? To save you, Xiao Fu agreed to be with me. Otherwise, why do you think I saved you, or why is she living here?" Yue Lin’s voice was low, "You can ask anyone here, they all know she’s my future wife."
"How dare you use me to coerce her!" Jin instantly burned with rage, swinging a punch towards his opponent’s face.
Yue Lin’s expression changed drastically, quickly retreating to dodge the fierce blow, inwardly cursing this rude and outrageous mad Leopard.
He sneered sarcastically, "Who do you think you are to question me like this?"
Jin shouted angrily, "I am her partner!"
When Yue Lin heard this, there was no trace of jealousy or displeasure; instead, he suddenly laughed, with a hint of mockery in his voice, "Her partner? You’re really naive."
He asked word by word,
"Do you really think she loves you?"
