C7 Embarrassment

"By the way, Miss, we have a guest coming to visit tomorrow," the secretary interjected, recalling an important detail. "It's the Imperator from the Osephis, coming specifically to see Grandfather."

Wang Yunuo was unfazed. "Let them come if they wish. It's their decision, and I have no intention of meeting him!" The mere thought of the Imperator from Osephis gave her a tremendous headache. The old man, leveraging his position, was insistent on having his son court her. And his son seemed quite taken with her, but to her, he was nothing but a spineless wimp! He was fond of her but too timid to pursue her, preferring instead to hide behind his father's status. Wang Yunuo had nothing but contempt for such men.

"Hold on, I'll meet with him after all!" she decided abruptly. "Fetch me a men's suit. I'll take it to my fiancé later!" A playful idea had just struck her. She was engaged to Chu Chenglong, a genuine betrothal. She was curious to see how the Imperator would react when he and his son visited her grandfather tomorrow, only to discover her engagement.

Chu Chenglong was staying in a sumptuously decorated guest room within the sanatorium. The room boasted furniture crafted from century-old mahogany and walls adorned with famous calligraphy masterpieces. These details, while indicative of refined taste, were not what truly mattered. More intriguing was the small courtyard behind the room, at the center of which bubbled a spring, featuring a massive fire stone. This stone transformed the spring into a special hot spring with remarkable health benefits.

"This is a real treasure. It seems someone here understands the finer things," Chu Chenglong mused. Preparing for a bath, he disrobed and settled into the hot spring. The warmth enveloped him, and he felt so at ease that he had no desire to leave. The soothing energy meandered through his body, lulling him into a state of bliss. Before he knew it, he had drifted off to sleep in the hot spring pool.

When he finally awoke and looked up, he was greeted by the sight of a beautiful face. It was Wang Yunuo, who was smiling down at him, her eyes twinkling with amusement as she took in the scene before her in the hot spring.

She was undeniably a vision of beauty, as pristine and exquisite as ice and jade.

Yet, there she was, playfully licking her lips.

She marveled with a click of her tongue, "I didn't expect you to have such a magnetic charm. Let me guess... you must have quite a few girlfriends, right?"

Chu Chenglong inwardly swore.

Damn, the potency of the Fire Stone Hot Springs was no joke; it had him standing at attention.

He discreetly grabbed a towel to cover himself.

"What do you want? Why would you enter my bedroom without knocking? Isn't that a bit impolite?"

Chu Chenglong detested anyone entering his private space without his consent.

Wang Yunuo was taken aback by his reaction. "Quite the temper, I see. I like that. But remember, I am your wife. Sneaking into your room or even under your covers isn't illegal, is it?" She said, her face alight with anticipation.

Chu Chenglong was momentarily overwhelmed.

"We aren't married yet; we're not husband and wife!"

Then, he noticed the clothes Wang Yunuo was concealing behind her. He understood her reason for sneaking into his room.

"You came to bring me clothes, didn't you? Thanks in advance. Just leave them on the stool and you can go."

Wang Yunuo's smile widened.

She had come all this way and had no intention of letting Chu Chenglong off the hook that easily.

"No way!"

"I need to make sure these clothes fit you. If they don't, I'll take them back for alterations!"

Wang Yunuo's demeanor shifted to one of fierce determination, her presence so commanding it was difficult to refuse.

Chu Chenglong felt resigned.

"Fine... But you are the eldest daughter of the Wang family. Aren't you worried about the servants gossiping if they see you helping me try on clothes?"

Wang Yunuo laughed heartily at the thought. Who in the vast Wang family would dare to speak ill of her?

Yet, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her fiancé was considerate of her reputation. How endearing.

The clothes Wang Yunuo had brought for Chu Chenglong were crafted by a renowned fashion designer, a bespoke creation for his grandfather.

The quality of the fabric and the craftsmanship were world-class, with each piece taking months to perfect.

It takes seven to eight months just to finish a single piece of clothing, and you simply can't find it on the market!

When Chu Chenglong wore it, his charisma skyrocketed!

He was completely transformed!

Wang Yunuo was extremely pleased. She couldn't help but feel that her fiancé exuded a natural air of authority.

She was convinced that Chu Chenglong was destined to be a standout among his peers!

"Don't go tomorrow. Someone is coming, and I could use your help," Wang Yunuo pleaded with Chu Chenglong. "If you're willing to stay and assist me, I can grant you a small favor—anything you ask. My word is my bond."

Chu Chenglong felt embarrassed, "How could I possibly be of any help to you, Miss?"

Wang Yunuo gave Chu Chenglong an encouraging pat on the shoulder, "Be confident. Believe in yourself. You can definitely do it."

This girl!

Chu Chenglong was at a loss.

But he truly had no intention of leaving the next day.

Old Master Wang Shichong had also met with him before and insisted that he stay at the nursing home for a few days.

He wasn't keen on agreeing to Wang Yunuo's request.

But he couldn't let down the old master.

After all, Wang Shichong was a dear friend of his master.

He must show the old master the same respect he would show his own master!

Seeing Chu Chenglong's reluctance, Wang Yunuo's lips puckered slightly, "Okay, if that's how you feel, I won't insist."

Disappointment flickered in her eyes.

Was she being too pushy?

Indeed, she shouldn't have put so much pressure on him in such a short time...

The next day, visitors arrived at the sanatorium early in the morning. Three imposing chariots arrived with great fanfare.

"Hahaha, Wang Shichong! You're still full of vigor in your old age!"

The leader, towering nearly two meters tall and exuding an aura of sternness, approached as if his very steps made the earth tremble.

Wang Shichong was elated, "Wonderful, it's been too long! Come in, have a seat! Murong Xiao, haha, you're back again!"

Following the Imperator was a strikingly handsome young man.

Upon hearing Wang Shichong's voice, he stuttered, "Murong Xiao... greetings, Old Mr. Wang."

After finishing his greeting, he glanced at Wang Yunuo, who was standing to the side, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.

"Sister Yunuo, it's been too long. I've missed you so much lately. Here's a gift I brought for you."

He eagerly pulled a necklace from his bag. The necklace was crafted from gold, and most impressively, it was adorned with at least a thousand diamonds!

Murong Xiao lifted his head with pride and declared, "This belonged to a woman once hailed as the queen by an underground group. The reason I speak of her in the past tense is that I have slain her myself!"

Despite his grand description of the necklace,

Wang Yunuo remained completely indifferent to him.

Murong Xiao felt a touch of embarrassment.

He stood there, forcing a couple of awkward chuckles...

"Huh?"

It was Chu Chenglong, who had been standing by Wang Yunuo's side and appeared to be her bodyguard, who suddenly interjected, "This is indeed a necklace that resembles the empress's. But this one is clearly a counterfeit, and the real deal is far superior to yours!"

Murong Xiao felt a twinge of irritation at those words. He turned to Chu Chenglong with impatience.

"And you are?"
