Trigger Warning: mention of suicide, potential sexual assault, premarital sex.
Zhao Jin was from a martial arts family, so her hearing was much more acute when compared to Jiang Lisa , hence she was able to pick up on some movements. She gave Jiang Lisa a look and gestured with her hands, as she silently walked forward. Jiang Lisa indicated for Tian Zhu to stick by Zhao Jin's side as a precaution should anything happen, while she also trailed behind.
The group put forth much effort to"lighten their footsteps, and just before they got to the forest edge, they heard a coquettish female voice reprimand, "You! You're shameless!"
Another voice immediately replied, and it was a male. The voice seemingly embodied an element of anger and chagrin. Perturbedly he stated, "You are the one who's strange otherwise why would you undress right before me? Utterly without any sense of shame!"
Zhao Jin exchanged looks with Jiang Lisa before carefully parting the dense foliage hindering their view. What they saw were a man and a woman with their backs to them. The man seemed to be a young man who was attending today's Golden Chrysanthemum Banquet, and going by his attire, he should be one of the aristocratic young masters. The woman was an unfamiliar stranger. Her clothing was askew and had been pulled off of her shoulders, revealing her fair skin. She cut a rather sorry figure.
"That's Guo family's Fifth Miss, Guo Meng, and is Assistant Minister Guo's shu daughter." Zhao Jin leaned close and whispered into Jiang Lisa 's ears. "Today she accompanied her elder di sister to the event."
"You....." That Fifth Miss Guo' voice hitched with the sound of impending tears and misery, "You've both dishonoured me and spat such words at me. I, I will not be able to face anyone now, I might as well die!" So saying, she stood up and set forth in an attempt to ram her head into the tree.
The young man was so startled that"he immediately stretched out his hand to grab hold of her, and was almost crushed into the tree by her forceful movement. Hurriedly he said, "There has to be some kind of misunderstanding. Our Zhao family men aren't the kind of shameless and irresponsible people that you speak of!"
He turned around, revealing a familiar face that the people hidden behind the trees were able to recognise. He was indeed the Zhao family's Third Young Master, Zhao Feizhou.
Zhao Feizhou was a young lad in his teens, and at the moment his face was flushed. However, his face did not indicate any guilty expression, just a harried indignation. Zhao Jin seemed to have seen through the farce and gave Jiang Lisa a nudge, "Lisa Meimei, there is something fishy about this scene."
Jiang Lisa arched her brows because obviously there was something fishy about it. That Fifth Miss Guo had been continuously harping on the fact that Zhao Feizhou had dishonoured her, but even until now, there had been no attempt on her part to tidy her attire. If it was any young maiden from a good home, surely she would have quickly covered herself up if she had just been dishonoured. This young lady sure was something else all together; it was as if she was afraid that everyone would miss out on seeing her exposed skin. Amongst the three young masters of the Zhao family, Zhao Yi was the calm and determined one, and Zhao Yulong followed Zhao Yuan Ping's temperament and resourcefulness. However, this Zhao Feizhou had not inherited Zhao Yuan Feng's cunning, but had instead only inherited his father's impetuous irritability and temper. Moreover, he was not the scheming type, therefore, if someone really wanted to plot against the Zhao family, it would be strange if they didn't find Zhao Feizhou.
