Truly shameless!

This young man, who had shamelessly boasted the name of Wu Yanzhu, amicably extended his hand to Ye Zhen.

This young man had the fair-skinned and slender hands of someone born into riches. The joints of his hands were distinct. They looked nothing like Lu Beichuan's hands, which looked strong and powerful. Lu Shaoyan's hands were lazily stretched out without a hint of strength behind them.

However, people who knew how to hide their skills were often the most formidable ones.

Lu Shaoyan's mother, Old Master Lu's third wife, was twenty years younger than Old Master Lu. She was only with him for ten years before going far away and never stepping foot on this coastal city.

In the novel, Lu Shaoyan had strongly inherited all of his mother's beauty. It was precisely because of his looks, which didn't show potential for aggressiveness, that caused Old Master Lu to cherish and dote on him.

Lu Shaoyan didn't have many hobbies. Like other rich second generation young masters, he liked street racing, drinking, and hanging out at clubs. He didn't attend to proper duties, but he was very loyal to his friends and generous with them. After over ten years of this, his reputation as the hedonistic son of rich parents was firmly cemented.

Old Master Lu loved his youngest son. If his son wanted to live a hedonistic lifestyle, let him live it. Anyways, the Lu's were rich enough to support Lu Shaoyan's lifestyle.

With Lu Shaoyan having this type of character and an easy-going temperament, even Lu Shaoren, who was now in jail, never took him seriously and had eliminated him as a possible competitor for inheriting the family.

As for the kidnapping that Lu Beichuan had mentioned, Ye Zhen had no knowledge of this. After all, this matter hadn't been mentioned in the novel.

Looking at the fair-skinned hands stretched out towards herself, Ye Zhen smiled and held those hands. "Hi, I'm Ye Zhen."

"Tao zhi yao yao. Qi ye zhen zhen. Ye Zhen is a good name!"

For a period of time, Old Master Lu had kept Lu Shaoyan by his side to make sure he studied certain classical books. Although Lu Shaoyan had lived abroad for several years, the knowledge from those classical books had sunk into his bone, and he had a habit of blurting out idioms and poems.

"So does uncle know what that poem means?"

(T/N: Tao zhi yao yao. Qi ye zhen zhen. These are lines from a poem that praises a bride for her virtues and says she'll bring happiness to her family.)

Lu Shaoyan slightly furrowed his brow. He didn't look that embarrassed. He let go of Ye Zhen's hands. Smiling mischievously, he said, "Little Zhenzhen, we just met. You shouldn't bully me. I've been living abroad for over a decade."

"..." Ye Zhen truly felt that her own cultivation in literature was pretty good.

After saying that, Lu Shaoyan finally looked at Lu Beichuan. Smiling, he gave Lu Beichuan a hug. "Beichuan, it's only been a year since we last saw each other and you got married and had a kid in that time. You totally caught me off guard."

Perhaps, it was because Lu Shaoyan had brought Lin Zhan with him or Ye Zhen's words had made him more alert, Lu Beichuan realized there was something wrong after careful consideration. His smile wasn't as wide as before. After their hug ended, he said in a neutral tone, "I sent you a message, but you never responded."

Lu Shaoyan shrugged. "I must have been too busy then."

Lu Beichuan glanced at Lin Zhan, who was still standing behind Lu Shaoyan. "Why is he here? I didn't invite him."
