Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 2092 - 421: An Encounter on the Ship 2

”Mom, please donʼt blame Tingting,” said Zhou Pingping.

”She probably felt that Brother Tiezhu was very kind, which is why she told him those things. Actually, I feel the same way.”

”Really?” said Wang Yue. ”I feel the same, too. From the moment I saw you both, I felt like you were my own sisters—something indescribably comforting. Thatʼs why I stayed here to observe further, to see if I was wrong. I didnʼt expect that you two felt the same way, too.”

”But why is that?” Zhou Pingping couldnʼt help but look at her mother. In her heart, her mother was the most knowledgeable person in the world; there was nothing she didnʼt know.

”I think thatʼs just fate between you two,” said Zhou Yifei, also feeling quite puzzled.

As someone who had seen a lot of things, she knew that sometimes relatives with close blood ties could feel this way. But Wang Tiezhu had nothing to do with her two daughters.

She was sure that there were no relatives with the surname Wang within three generations on her side, and she didnʼt feel any sense of kinship towards Wang Tiezhu.

On her daughtersʼ fatherʼs side, there were indeed relatives with the surname Wang, but it didnʼt make sense. The names didnʼt match, nor did the ages or appearances.

So, she could only attribute it to ”fate.” After all, some people just seem to get along naturally from the first meeting—thatʼs what ”instant chemistry” is all about.

”Brother Tiezhu, are you also from Jinling?” Zhou Pingping quickly accepted this explanation. After all, it was her mother who said it, so she became even more friendly towards Wang Yue.

”No, Iʼm a businessman who travels all over the place. This time, I just happened to pass through Jinling on my way to Tianhai to do some business,” said Wang Yue, shaking his head. He went to Tianhai to carry out something significant.

Although he would change his appearance and assume a new identity there, it wouldnʼt be good if his whereabouts were discovered and it affected these three women. So, he simply made up a lie.

”Brother Tiezhu is a businessman? Thatʼs great!” said Zhou Pingping happily. ”My mother is the best lawyer in Jinling. If you need to sign a contract or have any legal issues, you can ask my mother for help. She definitely wonʼt let you get taken advantage of.”

”Really? I didnʼt expect your aunt to be so capable,” said Wang Yue, looking impressed. He wasnʼt good at flirting with women, but he was an expert at winning their hearts.

Sure enough, upon hearing Wang Yueʼs praise, the two girls smiled proudly. Zhou Pingping said, ”Of course! Who doesnʼt know about the famous lawyer, Zhou Yifei?”

Zhou Yifei felt a bit embarrassed, not because of her daughterʼs praise. She was confident in her professional abilities. What made her uncomfortable was how Wang Yue referred to her.

The young manʼs age was somewhat awkward. He was about ten years older than the girls and ten years younger than her. It wasnʼt appropriate for the girls to call him brother, nor for him to call them aunt.

Nor would it be appropriate for the girls to call him uncle or for him to call himself their elder sister.

As a famous lawyer, Zhou Yifei always handled things very carefully. But in this situation, she had no choice but to let them call her whatever they wanted.

Was the famous lawyer Zhou Yifei really well-known?

As a native of Jinling, Wang Yue said he had never heard of her name before.

But that wasnʼt surprising. After all, warriors held a high status, especially those from the three powerful families in Jinling, who didnʼt need to deal with lawyers at all.

Perhaps his future mother-in-law, Ling Xueyan, would know this famous lawyer, Zhou Yifei.

After that, Wang Yue continued to chat with the three women.

Through the two girls, Wang Yue learned that they had come to Tianhai for vacation. Zhou Yifei was a woman who valued her career, but she cared more about her two daughters than her career.

She was a good mother.

Wang Yue couldnʼt help but think of his own mother. She also considered her children to be more important than anything else.

Then he realized that even after just parting, he already missed his mother.

It is said that a true man should have ambitions beyond his hometown, but Wang Yue was extremely homesick. Perhaps he couldnʼt really be considered a true man.

From the way these mothers and daughters moved, Wang Yue could tell that they were not ordinary people. Although their martial arts skills might not be very high, they were definitely fighters.

No wonder they dared to go to a place like Tianhai, which was both unfamiliar and full of dangers, without any men accompanying them.

As for the father of the two girls, Zhou Yifei refused to say much. She only said that he had gone to a distant place a long time ago and had not returned yet.

With the revival of spiritual energy, the emergence of fighters, and the advancement of technology, the pace of change has indeed slowed down significantly.

But compared to hundreds of years ago, there are still many differences. For example, the cruise ship Wang Yue and the others were not only larger in size but also much faster in speed, comparable to high-speed trains from hundreds of years ago.

The nearly ten-thousand-kilometer journey from Jinling to Tianhai took less than two days.

During these two days, Wang Yue spent time with the two girls, Zhou Pingping and Zhou Tingting, as well as their beautiful mother, Zhou Yifei.

With such beautiful women around and two cheerful little girls, what seemed like a boring journey actually became interesting.

However, Wang Yue was simply happy and didnʼt have any improper thoughts. Although Zhou Yifeiʼs appearance and figure were on par with Yan Mama and the others, she was, after all, a married woman who seemed to be very loving.

Wang Yue had strict principles in this regard and would never try to destroy someone elseʼs family.

Of course, exceptions like Xu Yanran and Chu Kuo didnʼt need him to interfere, as they werenʼt a loving couple anyway.

As for Zhou Pingping and Zhou Tingting, who were already over thirteen years old, they were quite developed, even more so than Wang Xinʼer. But their personalities were too innocent, and they thought like children. No matter how lustful Wang Yue might be, he wouldnʼt have any thoughts about them.

In fact, it was Zhou Yifei who protected her daughters so well that they never came into contact with any dark aspects of life.

This wasnʼt necessarily a good thing, but fortunately, Zhou Yifee realized this, so she took them to Tianhai during the holiday to broaden their horizons.

When it was time to leave the ship, the two girls cried bitterly, reluctant to see Wang Yue go. It was only after Zhou Yifei used some force that she managed to get them to leave.

Wang Yue wasnʼt too affected, as he wasnʼt a merchant who traveled everywhere. Once he returned to Jinling, he would have plenty of opportunities to see them again, and he could even bring them back to live with him.

For now, it was more important to focus on his tasks.

Zhang Hong and Li Gang also met with Wang Yue, but they didnʼt talk to each other. They pretended not to know each other and parted ways at the dock.

Having lived two lives, this was Wang Yueʼs first time visiting Tianhai.

Apart from the different people, higher levels of fighters, and a few iconic buildings, Tianhai wasnʼt much different from Jinling. This didnʼt make Wang Yue want to explore everything around him.

After walking around a few streets in Tianhai and making sure no one was paying attention to him, Wang Yue disappeared into an empty alley. When he emerged, he looked completely different, both in appearance and attire.

Now, he didnʼt look as handsome as his original self, nor as ordinary as ”Wang Tiezhu”. Instead, he resembled a sinister young man with narrow eyes and a hooked nose, clearly not a good person.

Adding to this was his black combat suit and the cold aura he deliberately emitted, giving off an air of being approachable only with great difficulty.

After changing his appearance, Wang Yueʼs first stop was the Lingyun Pavilion branch in Tianhai. He wanted to see if he could obtain some advanced martial arts techniques.

He even prepared the necessary items for exchanging martial arts techniques, which were small gadgets obtained from Yan Fangfei.

Yan Fangfeiʼs technological capabilities were much stronger than what people outside knew about her.

However, some of her research results were too advanced and powerful for the three major families to control. Therefore, Su Mengyun ordered her to keep them secret and store them away.

Yan Fangfei had no objections to this. What she enjoyed was the process of research, not the glory that came after achieving results. Whether the results were used for production or stored away, she didnʼt care at all.

What Wang Yue brought with him was just a small portion of the least valuable items in her storage.

Yan Fangfei had studied these items for almost ten years before finally having the chance to use them. If they had any sense of consciousness, they would probably be excited enough to cry.

Tianhai is one of the ten super-cities in the human territory. The Lingyun Pavilion branch here is much more impressive than the one in Jinling.
