Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

183: Yunshang has the beauty of golden lotus feetCao Bu was taken aback; she really knew how to pick her timing.

Suddenly, a scrutinizing gaze landed on him.

He didn’t even need to guess; it had to be that woman, Lu Qingwu.

Seeing this, the other women’s expressions turned strange, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Was Yun Shang coming to find Cao Bu at this moment for the same reason as them, or did she have another motive?

Lu Qingwu walked up to Cao Bu, her brows knitted together, and she asked in a low voice, ”Cao Bu, what is Yun Shang here for?”

A hint of anger quietly welled up in the depths of her eyes.

Could this damn beast really be involved with Yun Shang, just as she suspected?

Cao Bu forced a sheepish smile and replied vaguely, ”What else could it be? She’s here to discuss the Heavenly Pride Battle.”

It wasn’t time to expose their relationship yet.

He hadn’t fully gained control over these women yet, and if a scene erupted, he wouldn’t be able to contain it.

As soon as he finished speaking, rapid footsteps sounded from outside, accompanied by a slightly dissatisfied female voice: ”Cao Bu, what is going on with you? Do I need to report just to see you?”

Immediately after, Bai Meier’s somewhat helpless attempt to dissuade her followed: ”Madam Clan Chief, this is against the rules; it’s really not allowed.”

”Why not? He is the Clan Chief, and I am the Clan Chief’s wife. What rules do I need to follow to see my own man?”

The woman’s voice carried a hint of arrogance; it was none other than Yun Shang.

Hearing this, Lu Qingwu’s eyes widened, and she rolled up her sleeves, ready to attack Cao Bu.

Fang Ruodan, who was nearby, saw this and quickly reached out to hold her back.

Zhao Wei also reacted very quickly, hurriedly straightening the nearby screen, and the group silently and tacitly slipped behind it.

”Dan Di, why are you stopping me! I must kill this beast today!”

Lu Qingwu’s chest heaved with anger, her voice trembling.

Fang Ruodan advised, ”Don’t be hasty. Let’s see the situation first. What if it’s not what you think?”

In truth, she already knew, but she said this deliberately because she was afraid Lu Qingwu would act impulsively and cause trouble.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lu Qingwu’s emotions calmed slightly, and she no longer acted impulsively.

She really wanted to figure out what kind of trick Cao Bu and Yun Shang were up to.

At this moment, Zhao Wei looked through a hole in the screen and whispered a reminder: ”They’re here; Yun Shang has entered.”

Hearing this, the women all crowded closer to observe carefully.

Seeing Yun Shang walk in, Cao Bu quickly put on a smile and went to greet her: ”Yun Shang, you’re here.”

Yun Shang glared at him with dissatisfaction and chided, ”What kind of ’Yun Shang’ is that? You have no manners; call me Shang’er.”

At the door, Bai Meier’s mouth instantly formed an ”O” shape upon hearing this.

She felt that what she had witnessed today was enough to brag about for a lifetime.

So her master was even more formidable than she had imagined. Thinking back to everything she had seen before, she sighed inwardly: This web of relationships was just too messy.

These words reached Lu Qingwu’s ears behind the screen, making her even more certain that there was something fishy between the two.

Cao Bu’s peripheral vision swept over the screen calmly, and seeing no movement behind it, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he turned around, he saw Yun Shang quickly step closer, lowering her voice to say, ”Cao Bu, I don’t have much time. Let’s start quickly; don’t waste any effort.”

Cao Bu was stunned on the spot.

This Yun Shang was a bit too impatient, wasn’t she?

Helpless, he could only wave at Yan Ruyu and Bai Meier at the door, signaling them to leave first.

Seeing this, the two could only retreat reluctantly, closing the door behind them.

Time ticked by, and only Cao Bu and Yun Shang remained in the living room.

Behind the screen, Fang Ruodan had already quietly set up a soundproofing Barrier.

Given their current cultivation levels, Cao Bu and Yun Shang couldn’t detect the existence of this Barrier at all.

The women withdrew their gazes from the gaps in the screen and looked in unison at the livid Lu Qingwu.

Zhao Wei cleared her throat and teased intentionally: ”Madam Lu, I’m curious, how does Cao Bu usually address you? Your relationship is a bit confusing.”

When she said this, she completely forgot that she and Lin Rou were already involved with Cao Bu.

Mu Zining also laughed: ”Indeed, Madam Lu, look at how proactive Madam Yun is; this is clearly your true inheritance.”

Tang Shuying covered her mouth and giggled: ”That ’Brother Bu’ she called out, tsk tsk tsk, it’s not much different from yours, Madam Lu.”

Qin Bingyao crossed her arms and added with a strange tone: ”No wonder they say people of the same family enter the same door. Sneaking around to have an affair is one thing, but to steal from the same person? I really feel sorry for Sect Master Yun; his own woman and daughter are actually of the same ilk.”

”Stop talking! Do you think you can escape this?”

Lu Qingwu was both ashamed and angry, her cheeks flushed bright red, and she couldn’t help but retort.

Hearing this, the group looked at each other and immediately fell silent.

They knew in their hearts that Lu Qingwu was right; their relationships with Cao Bu weren’t any cleaner than Lu Qingwu’s.

Zhao Wei only then belatedly remembered her own situation, turning her face away awkwardly, not daring to look at Lu Qingwu again.

”No, I must break them up!”

The more Lu Qingwu thought about it, the angrier she became, and she struggled, wanting to rush out.

Fang Ruodan was quick-witted and immediately stopped her.

”Dan Di, move aside!” Lu Qingwu was furious.

Fang Ruodan said firmly: ”Madam Lu, without Cao Bu’s order, you cannot go out now.”

She paused and added: ”If you go out, everyone will be unable to save face.”

Looking at Fang Ruodan’s resolute gaze, Lu Qingwu had no choice but to give up.

In fact, she knew clearly that she hadn’t thought about how to explain herself if she went out.

She couldn’t just say she was hiding behind the screen peeping, could she?

If she really exposed this, neither she nor Yun Shang would be able to save face.

On second thought, she secretly made up her mind that she had to drag these women into the water as well, otherwise, if they spread her secret, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Meanwhile.

In a dark corner not far from Cangfeng Residence.

Gu Yun was staring blankly at the entrance of Cangfeng Residence, his eyes full of shock.

”This... how many have gone in now?”

He subconsciously extended his fingers to count: ”One, two, three, four, five, six... a full six!”

”What a beast! Truly a beast!”

Gu Yun almost shouted out loud, quickly covering his mouth, terrified of being discovered.

Coming here in the middle of the night, the meaning was self-evident.

He could already imagine it; he really was a beast.

After confirming no one was around, Gu Yun tiptoed away, walking quickly all the way to Lingxiao Courtyard.

Looking at Gu Feng, who was lying motionless on the bed, Gu Yun sighed helplessly, leaned into his ear, and whispered: ”Little Feng, Big Brother has something to tell you, you have to hold on.”

”Yun Shang went to find Cao Bu.”

”She’s cheating on you; I don’t know if you’re aware of this.”

Gu Feng’s consciousness heard these words, but remained completely calm.

He had long since become immune to such things.

Ever since he was bedridden and unable to move, Cao Bu and Yun Shang had often made noise next door.

Seeing Gu Feng had no reaction, Gu Yun continued: ”Little Feng, Big Brother has to scold you a bit on this. Back then, when you insisted on being with Yun Shang, Big Brother didn’t agree!”

”I saw long ago that Yun Shang wasn’t a settled person; she has the aptitude of a Golden Lotus. I told you back then, but you didn’t believe me. Now look, you’ve been cuckolded, yet you can only lie in bed; how suffocating.”

”My Heart Snow is better; I’ve been away for so long, and she has never caused me any trouble, let alone cuckolded me.”

”That’s why I say, when marrying a woman, you have to choose carefully. You can’t just look at her face; character is the most important thing...”
