Chapter 301 - A Virgin?

Translator: Lonelytree

Lin Yuelan chuckled and asked, “masked uncle, why are you here?”

Although he no longer wore a mask, Lin Yuelan still habitually called Jiang Zhennan the masked uncle.

A gentle smile appeared on Jiang Zhennan’s cold and hard facial features. He said, “I’m here to pick you up so we can go home together.”

As he said that, he looked at the sky that had already darkened. It seemed that Lin Yuelan had spent an entire day treating Lin Mingqing.

Lin Yiwei had come out with Lin Yuelan. When he heard Jiang Zhennan, he smiled and said, “alright, I’ll have to trouble young master Nan to send Lan ‘Er home. It’s dark now, and it’s not safe to travel alone.”

Lin Yuelan introduced him as Nan Zhenjiang, so Lin Yiwei played along.

Lin Yiwei knew that with Lin Yuelan’s ability, no harm would come to her even if she walked home alone, but deep in his heart, Lin Yiwei still saw her as a child who needed protection. So he was glad to see Jiang Zhennan.

Jiang Zhennan nodded his head and said, “uncle village chief, this is what I should do.”

Lin Yiwei chuckled and bade them farewell. That day was the best day he had had in the past three years.

Jiang Zhennan took the medic kit from Lin Yuelan and asked in a magnetic, deep, and powerful voice, “did it go smoothly?” He was asking about the process of treating Lin Mingqing.

Lin Yuelan nodded and replied, “yes, it’s much smoother than I expected.”

After that, Jiang Zhennan replied with an “Oh” and was so dumb that he did not know what else to say.

He just kept looking at the road and then at the rocks and potholes. He would warn Lin Yuelan of them.

......

Lin Yuelan didn’t expect that a man like Jiang Zhennan would be so attentive.

Lin Yuelan jokingly said with a smile, “masked uncle, it’s rumored that the defender-general is stern and cold. Women and children are scared of them. But I can see that you’re a gentle and careful man.” Then, she said curiously, “Oh, I wonder which woman will be so lucky to marry you in the future and enjoy the masked uncle’s attentiveness and gentleness.”

Lin Yuelan raised her head and looked at the bright sky with a flash of sadness in her eyes.

She thought of her six-year relationship that had been betrayed.

In this world, she decided that she might live alone.

Although Lin yuelan was joking, Jiang Zhennan was slightly stunned. Soon, a blush appeared on the tip of his ears.

He turned his head, and under the bright moonlight, he saw Lin Yuelan’s delicate and beautiful side profile. Her white skin was even more translucent and delicate under the moonlight. Her small nose was very cute and delicate, and her pink lips were as delicate as a hibiscus.

Jiang Zhennan looked at her in a daze for a moment. There was a tenderness in his eyes. However, in this tenderness, there was a deep sense of suppressed emotions.

Feeling the gaze from the side, Lin Yuelan turned her head and saw Jiang Zhennan looking at her. She asked with some doubt, “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Zhennan realized that he had lost his composure. He immediately became a little flustered and helpless. His eyes drifted, and he stuttered, “Miss Yue ‘Er, you … You can’t make such a joke. Ever since I was born, I was determined by a monk to be an ultimate jinx. Any girl who approaches me will be harmed. I am destined to be alone for all of my life.”

When Lin Yuelan heard this, she burst into laughter and said, “masked uncle, does that mean that you’re still a virgin when you’re twenty-four years old this year?” As she spoke, Lin Yuelan sized him up with a suspicious look.

Jiang Zhennan’s slightly red face turned even more crimson.

He was even more at a loss as he said in embarrassment, “Miss Yue ‘Er, don’t … Don’t make jokes like that.”

However, Lin Yuelan put on a serious expression and asked very seriously, “Young Master Jiang Zhennan, I have a very serious question for you. Are you really still a virgin?”
