Chapter 242: Who Exactly Are You?
"It's still the same as before here!"
Stepping into the Governor's Office and looking at the familiar scenery around, almost nothing had changed from before; the only thing that might have changed was that the people living inside had been replaced.
Moreover, the people who replaced them seemed rather disgusting; if the lower beam is so crooked, can the upper beam really be any better?
From those two Huwe just now, Shen Yu also gained a rough understanding of this Governor's son.
On the surface, he is gentle and refined, but in secret, he is a scoundrel who preys on women. He does not shy away from these disgusting matters at all, and the Huwe by his side can even recount them in detail, which shows his arrogance and tyranny.
Just the disgusting things he puts on display are enough to make one want to slash him with a blade. As for how many unknown things he has done in the dark, that is even less known.
Recalling when he first entered Xichuan, he had intended to let the people of Xichuan live a good life. However, he hadn't been the Xichuan Governor for long before he went into seclusion for three years.
Now that he has awakened again, Xichuan has fallen into the hands of such a person; no matter what, he must intervene.
"Young Master, this isn't good, is it!"
Following his perception, Shen Yu immediately found the target's location. At this moment, a shy voice of a young girl came from inside the room; the soft, resisting-yet-welcoming sound made one's imagination run wild.
"What's not good about it? Be obedient, call me husband!"
At this moment, another man's voice rang out in the room, full of temptation, as if it made one unable to resist obeying.
The young girl's face was flushed with shyness; although they had already pledged their lives to each other, they had not yet been married, and her maidenly shyness made her somewhat resistant to these things.
Yet, facing this gentle and refined man before her who had also saved her, she could not bring herself to say words of refusal.
At her most desperate moment, it was this young master before her who saved her from fire and water; with just one look, she had set her heart on him, and she could offer him everything she had.
But what he asked her to do was truly too shameful, and it was really somewhat difficult to do.
"Be good, listen to me. After a while, I will take you into my house, and from then on, you will be a person of my Chen family. What is wrong with a husband and wife doing some things together!"
"Then, then alright!" The young girl's voice was like a mosquito, and although she was somewhat embarrassed, she still nodded in agreement.
Just at this moment, the door was pushed open, and Shen Yu walked in lightly from outside.
Inside, the young girl was preparing to undo her outer garment, while another youth, who looked handsome but carried a hint of evil, was looking at her with a face full of heat.
That fiery gaze seemed as if it would roast a person, making the young girl feel increasingly shy.
Just at this critical moment, at the final step, the door was opened by someone; who could stand that?
The youth inside forcibly suppressed his anger so as not to lose his composure in front of the girl. However, for such a long time, no one had dared to barge in while he was doing his business; he was courting death!
"Which bastard is it, daring to disturb this young master?"
Turning his head to look outside in a rage, he saw a person who looked like a weak scholar walking in from outside.
It was bad enough that this bastard had disturbed his good deed, but the key was that he didn't even recognize him; did the Governor's Office have such a person?
Since he had no impression of him, it meant he was not worth mentioning. It seemed that because he hadn't shown his power for a long time, any stray cat or dog dared to provoke him.
"Charm arts!" Just seeing this noble young master, Shen Yu's heart skipped a beat. He had originally thought this guy at most played tricks on others, but who knew he even used charm arts.
A grown man, actually understands these?
"Who are you? Who let you in? Get out!"
"Are you Chen Zheng?" Ignoring the other's roar, Shen Yu walked straight over, grabbed him, and tossed him aside as if he were grabbing a little chick.
Chen Zheng had also thought about resisting, but he was fragile and weak before Shen Yu; only then did he realize that the scholar before him was likely an expert.
It's over; could it be that among the prey he had found, there was someone who had relatives or friends who were such experts?
"Young Master..." Such a sudden change left the young girl at the side at a loss, but a moment later, she gathered her courage, and her thin body blocked the way in front of Shen Yu.
"Young Master, run quickly!"
Chen Zheng didn't waste words either; after sneaking a glance at Shen Yu, he threw the young girl aside and fled in a panic himself, his nature as a scumbag exposed without a doubt.
"Someone come! Save me, someone wants to kill me, come quickly!!"
Following Chen Zheng's cry for help, a large number of Huwe rushed toward this side one after another, and countless experts flew over from the distance.
As for the young girl in the room, she still spread her arms to block Shen Yu. Even though she knew she might not be able to stop him, she still did not retreat a single step.
"Don't come over!"
"Young lady, have you never thought that your meeting with him was not a coincidence, but calculated long ago? Also, that Brothel you were sold into belongs to him!"
Looking at the young girl before him, Shen Yu really didn't know what to say. Fairy tales are beautiful, but if they are pricked, it is easy to make people despair.
"Do you know? There were many girls like you before; they were also saved by Chen Zheng just like you, and in the end, they were willing to give everything for him."
"But these were all calculated by him long ago; only in this way would you simple little girls be willing to give everything for him. Once he gets tired of playing, you will be sent to the Brothel."
"Why do you think that in this past year or so, there have been many outstanding-looking young girls in the Brothels of Anzhou City? Many of the top courtesans there came about this way!"
"You're lying! Young Master Chen is not that kind of person!"
Blocking in front of Shen Yu, the young girl did not believe his words from beginning to end. If some things are not completely torn open, one can never truly believe them.
People are always willing to see what they want to see, and instead are unwilling or afraid to believe the truth.
"Who is it that wants to harm Zheng'er? Such great courage! You even dare to touch the son of me, Chen Ming!"
Before long, a person of about fifty years old arrived in a hurry; it was the newly appointed Governor, Chen Ming, who was also an expert at the Grandmaster Realm.
"Dad, it's him!" Pointing at Shen Yu, Chen Zheng found his backbone, and his whole body straightened up.
With so many experts from his own family here, and his own father backing him up, Chen Zheng felt he was capable again.
He wanted this person before him to pay the price for his actions.
"Where did this bastard come from, daring to touch my son? Do you believe that this official will send troops to wipe out..."
The arrogant words stopped abruptly there; he saw a familiar figure, and this figure had been pressing on his heart like a nightmare.
"You, are you Lord Shen Yu?"
Looking at Shen Yu carefully and uncertainly, he was almost exactly the same as when he had seen him in the Capital all those years ago. It was just that back then, Shen Yu's sharpness was exposed, while now, Shen Yu's sharpness was hidden within.
"Unfilial son!" Raising his hand, he turned and slapped Chen Zheng across the face. This palm was struck with great force, and the crisp sound of the slap echoed in the courtyard.
"Dad, why are you hitting me?"
"Not only do I want to hit you, I want to beat you to death, you unfilial son!" While secretly looking at Shen Yu's side, Chen Ming grabbed a wooden stick and struck down fiercely.
Back when he took over the position of Xichuan Governor in the Capital, he had already thought that such a day might come.
He knew whose position he was replacing as Xichuan Governor; that was Shen Yu, after all, who had only disappeared, not necessarily gone for good.
Once that person returned, what would await him was unknown.
Yet he still came, simply because the position of Governor was far too tempting. Besides, Shen Yu had been missing for so long, who knew when he would return.
By then, he might not even be the Governor anymore.
But he never expected that he would only be comfortable in this position for such a short time before Shen Yu returned. And the moment he returned, he headed straight for his son; there was no need to ask to know that his son's pathetic affairs had been discovered by him.
Who was Shen Yu? He was an existence who killed without blinking; if things went poorly, his entire family could be implicated.
At the thought of this, Chen Ming's movements became even more ruthless. If he didn't teach his son how to behave now, by the time Shen Yu taught him, it would be a case of the white-haired burying the black-haired.
"Dad, I am your own son, how can you be so cruel!" As the wooden club lashed against his body, Chen Zheng felt a burning pain, as if his bones were about to be broken.
This father, who had always doted on him, must have taken the wrong medicine; wasn't he afraid that Mother would make him kneel in the Ancestral Hall tonight?
"You still dare to dodge? Come here, see if I don't beat you to death!"
"Lord Shen, I have let you see a joke; please rest assured, I will definitely teach him a good lesson!"
"Lord Chen, your son indeed needs a good lesson, but how can a mere wooden club be enough to teach a son?"
Casually drawing the blade from a nearby Huwe, Shen Yu handed it directly over, "You must use this!"
"Lord Shen is joking, right?"
"Chen Zheng, do you think I am joking with you?"
