The Only Male Emperor in a Female-dominated World

Chapter 3: Lantern Chapter, Testing

Lying on the bed, Chen Lingjun tossed and turned, thinking about countermeasures.

"Tomorrow is the annual Lantern Festival. Perhaps this is an opportunity to escape from the Chen Mansion."

Generally, during important festivals, the master would allow him to go out for fun, but only within the city, and a large number of guards from the mansion would follow him secretly.

"But the Lantern Festival isn't a big deal. I guess I'll have to put down my pride and act like a spoiled brat tomorrow."

For people in this world, it is normal for men to act like a spoiled child, but for Chen Ling, it is a bit offensive.

Random Teleportation Talisman: A one-time talisman, activated by spiritual power, which will teleport the user to any location two thousand kilometers away after use.

Two thousand kilometers, by then even a great immortal would not be able to catch up with him.

As for where he would be teleported to and whether there would be any danger, that was not something he could control.

As I was thinking, I gradually felt sleepy, and when I opened my eyes, it was already early morning.

With Xiao Chunzi's help, Chen Lingjun quickly washed up and prepared to go find his master.

"Xiao Chunzi, why are your hands so cold?" While washing up, Chen Lingjun shivered at the coldness of Xiao Chunzi's hands.

"I'm sorry, sir. I caught a cold recently, so my hands are a little cold." Xiao Chunzi explained with an apologetic look on his face.

"I see. I was wondering why your voice has changed. If that's the case, then you should have a good rest. You don't have to serve me anymore."

It was just right that there were two of us together, and it would be inconvenient to move around, so it would be great if we could use this opportunity to get Xiao Chunzi away.

"Well... well, please be careful, sir."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chunzi agreed readily. He thought he would have to argue for a while.

At this time, no matter how stupid Chen Lingjun was, he noticed something was wrong, but he did not alarm the enemy.

There are some things that you just need to know.

Soon, Chen Lingjun saw Chen Yanran again. At this time, she was sitting upright on a chair, with her long, round and smooth legs crossed, drinking wine leisurely.

The beautiful scene made Chen Lingjun take a second look.

"My dear disciple, I have long expected that you would come here. You want to attend the Lantern Festival, right?"

Chen Yanran slightly opened her red lips and took a sip of wine. She knew that Chen Lingjun would not be able to resist the temptation of the Lantern Festival.

"Master, you are truly a prophet. Nothing can be hidden from your eyes." Chen Lingjun said with a smile.

Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not agree, but now, Chen Lingjun only has a few days left to live, so it doesn't hurt to let him be happy for a while.

"Hmm? Is the teacher very old?" Chen Yanran frowned slightly and touched her cheek with her hand, looking somewhat displeased.

…………

Well, no matter which world a woman is from, she cares a lot about what others say about her age.

"How could that be? Master, you are not old at all. You look like a teenage girl." Chen Lingjun suppressed his discomfort and said in a coquettish voice while hugging Chen Yanran's arm.

Chen Yanran's expression suddenly became happy, and she seemed to enjoy the feeling of Chen Lingjun acting coquettishly towards her.

"Okay. It just so happens that I'm a little bored recently, so I'll go with you for a walk."

Chen Lingjun's heart was suddenly filled with a thousand horses, and even his smile was a little stiff. "Master, will you come with me?"

"What? Not happy?"

"How is that possible? It would be even better if the master could go with us."

…………

The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in this world. On this day, men and women will go out to play and release lanterns together.

When you meet someone you like, you give the sachet to them. Accepting it means they agree, and vice versa.

…………

The Gu family is the most powerful family in Yongji City, and there are two cave-heaven realm powerhouses in the family.

One is Gu Ying, the head of the Gu family, and the other is the ancestor Gu Rufang.

Gu Xuejian is Gu Ying's only daughter and the sole heir to the entire family.

"How is it? Is there any news about any handsome man in the Chen Mansion?" Gu Xuejian asked the housekeeper anxiously.

"Miss, I heard from the surveillance that the owner of the Chen Mansion took the handsome man to the market. According to my guess, they are probably going to participate in the Lantern Festival."

The butler told his conjecture in detail. If it was correct, he would definitely get a large reward.

"Good, very good! Someone, come here, I'm going out to the market." Gu Xuejian was overjoyed and rushed out of the house with his guards and headed straight for the market.

It was an evening during the Spring Festival. Gu Xuejian was strolling around as usual when he spotted a man who was exceptionally handsome.

That stunning beauty was something she had never seen in her life.

After asking around, she found out that he was the young master of the Chen family. From then on, she lost her appetite. If her mother had not sternly warned her not to mess with the Chen family, she would have gone to propose marriage long ago.

…………

"Master, I want to eat that! And buy that!" Chen Lingjun finally had the chance to come out, so naturally he wanted to indulge himself.

I have to say, there are so many kinds of food and gadgets in this world that it’s overwhelming.

The boy's bell-like laughter and beauty made passers-by stop to look and admire him.

Little did she know that Chen Yanran wanted to die at this moment. From morning till now, she had not stopped for a moment, and the things she bought could fill up a small storage ring.

At this moment, Chen Lingjun was suddenly blocked by a group of people, led by Gu Xuejian.

After she arrived at the market, she asked her men to search for it with all their might, and they found it soon.

"Huh? Who are you?" Chen Lingjun looked at the white-haired girl in front of him, a little confused. Is there leukemia in the other world?

"My handsome sir, it's our first meeting. My name is Gu Xuejian. I have no ill intentions in disturbing you. I just want to make friends with you."

Gu Xuejian tried hard to behave and speak politely so as to leave a good impression on the man in front of him.

Chen Lingjun originally wanted to send her away directly, but an idea suddenly came to his mind. Perhaps this was an opportunity to test Chen Yanran.

"Okay, my name is Chen Lingjun, and this is my master Chen Yanran."

Gu Xuejian was ready to give up, but he didn't expect the beauty to agree. He was immediately overjoyed.

"Mr. Chen is also here to participate in the Lantern Festival, right? Why don't we go for a walk together?" Gu Xuejian suppressed her joy. As for Chen Yanran, she didn't care.

She could kill a large number of these small family heads with just a wave of her hand.

"Well..., what do you think, Master?" Chen Lingjun asked.

"Since Miss Gu is so enthusiastic, let's go shopping together."

Chen Yanran had a cold expression on her face and didn't seem to care about the matter.

In this way, the few of them walked from the beginning of the street to the end of the street until evening.

During the whole process, Gu Xuejian's eyes never left Chen Lingjun, and he did not hide his admiration for him at all.

"It's getting late, Miss Gu, let's stop here for today."

After Chen Yanran finished speaking, she could no longer bear it, so she took Chen Lingjun's hand and left quickly, not giving Gu Xuejian a chance to say goodbye.

"Hey, hey, hey, Master Chen... the road is dark at night, be careful when walking."

Watching Chen Lingjun disappear in the crowd, Gu Xuejian's eyes revealed a sinister look, "Chen Lingjun, I must get you, no matter what the method."

.........

"Disciple, did you have fun today?" Chen Yanran felt the surprising softness coming from her hand and pretended to remain calm.

Sure enough, men are made of tofu, delicious and nice to touch.

"Happy, thank you, Master." Chen Lingjun smiled sweetly.

On the surface, the two masters and apprentices seem to get along very well, but in fact, they each have their own ulterior motives.

"Gu family, hehe..."

There was a flash of murderous intent in Chen Yanran's eyes. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
