Help! My pet supervillain has three personalities!

Murong Minglang ate with his usual elegance, Lin Hao remained as rude as ever, and Tang Yue ate slowly and leisurely.

It was just getting dark when they finished eating. Tang Yue packed some more food for Li Yang and Grandma Zhao, paid the bill, gave the enthusiastic waiter a tip, and then took Murong Minglang and Lin Hao home.

I promised to take Murong Minglang out to play, and even though it's dark, it's impossible for me to break my promise.

Tang Yue's family home was always located deep in a residential area of ​​the West Market. Later, Tang Yue expanded the house a bit, added two more guest rooms, and redesigned the renovation, so the courtyard became even larger.

Before she even reached the courtyard, she could hear cheerful sounds coming from inside.

She thought that Mu Yi and Mu Fei had come back to stay at her house again, and worried that Murong Minglang would feel uncomfortable, so she told him in a gentle tone beforehand: "Young Master Lang, this courtyard is my home, but there may be a lot of people at home today, would you... be able to come?"

"Didn't you say you were an orphan?" Murong Minglang asked, his face tense and his tone somewhat accusatory as he listened to the lively sounds inside.

Tang Yue smiled and continued gently, "I'm not lying to you, I really am an orphan."

"Alright, let me give you a brief introduction first. The people living in this courtyard are my older brother, whom I've adopted, named Li Yang; my grandmother, who is the Zhao Wu grandmother I mentioned this morning; two carpenters, my senior brothers, named Mu Yi and Mu Fei; and if there are any others, they would be my two junior brothers, one named Xiao Xin and the other named A Dai. They are not related to me by blood, but... they are all my family."

“And I am indeed an orphan,” she added after saying that.

"So many people..." Murong Minglang muttered to himself, making sure Tang Yue didn't hear.

"Do you want to go, young master Lang?" Tang Yue's tone became even gentler. She was always gentler with children.

Murong Minglang looked away awkwardly, listening to the laughter inside. He glanced around the courtyard again. It was getting dark; he figured he could just go in, say hello, and then leave.

He licked his lips: "I...I'll go in and say hello."

It shouldn't take long, he thought again.

After all, many people seemed to be quite afraid of them; not many people dared to look him in the eye on North Street.

"Okay, let's go then. Perfect timing. I'll introduce them to you in person so you can find the right fit. If you ever need anything in the future, you can ask them for help. They're very helpful."

"Okay," who knows who will help whom in the future.

Seeing that Murong Minglang was ready, Tang Yue led her people directly through the main gate.

"Clang..." As soon as the door opened, the five people sitting around the small table all turned their eyes to Tang Yue.

"Uh, who are you?"

One of the men, who was slightly fairer than Tang Yue, paused for a moment before immediately standing up and shielding Grandma Zhao and Li Yang behind him.

Zhao Wu didn't recognize Tang Yue, but Tang Yue did. He looked exactly the same as when he left, except that he had more muscles and his face was darker.

His shout made Tang Yue feel a little embarrassed. When he left, Tang Yue hadn't yet grown into such a beauty. Now, she was being attacked by her own people, and to make matters worse, she even brought guests back with her.

Fortunately, Li Yang stepped in to save the day.

Otherwise, given his imposing manner, she probably would have come up and beaten her up a couple of times!

Li Yang pressed down Zhao Wu's clenched fist and said softly, "Xiao Wu, stop fooling around, that's A Yue."

Zhao Wu, who was already on high alert, cracked his skin upon hearing this and exclaimed, "What did you say? She...she's Tang Yue?"

Tang Yue, who was just about to take things a step further: ...

What does he mean now?

Is it because they dislike her?

Tang Yue's dark expression was so obvious that Murong Minglang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Pfft~ Hehe~" The clear voice, mixed with a touch of childishness, instantly extinguished much of Tang Yue's anger.

She cracked her knuckles, glared fiercely at Zhao Wu, the porcelain hammer, and said threateningly, "Hmph, Zhao Wu, you just wait. I was even asking around about you today, and you come back and pull this stunt. I'm not going to bother with you now. I brought a friend with me."

I'll settle the score with you next time!

After saying that, she pulled Murong Minglang away from the doorway, stood in front of the table, and pushed Zhao Wu, who was standing silently in place, aside: "Get out of here!"

Then his expression changed drastically, and he turned around and began to introduce the new guests in a loud voice: "Brother, Grandma, Mu Yi, Mu Fei, this is Murong Minglang, the young master of the Duke's Mansion, my boss and good friend."

"Young Master Lang, this middle-aged man is my brother, Li Yang. This kind-looking grandmother is Zhao Wu's biological grandmother, and also my godmother. This one with a gentle smile is Senior Brother Mu Yi, and this one with an icy face is Senior Brother Mu Fei."

"You can call them by their names, or you can call them 'brother' like I do..."

Before she could even utter the words "Grandma Tang Yue," Li Yang grabbed her arm, shoved her behind his back, and rolled his eyes at her, telling her to figure it out herself—what was she trying to say?!

Then he bowed and said politely to Murong Minglang, "Young Master Murong, you can just call us by our names. Xiaoyue is still young and doesn't know proper etiquette, please forgive her!" He was really afraid that calling him "brother" would shorten his lifespan.

Murong Minglang pursed his lips listlessly, said indifferently that he was fine, got up, and then fell silent.

Tang Yue, standing behind Li Yang, felt embarrassed for the young man.

However, it's quite rare to see him looking so embarrassed.

She wanted to watch a little longer.

There was a moment of silence. Seeing that no one spoke, Li Yang had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue.

"Young Master Murong, has our Xiaoyue caused any trouble at your residence?"

"No," came the simple and calm reply.

"That's fine."

The topic was over, and the room fell silent again.

One look in their eyes and I knew it was a major social disaster!

Tang Yue, who was at the back, was about to burst out laughing. Unable to bear it any longer, she immediately stepped in to defuse the situation.

She patted Li Yang's shoulder familiarly and said casually, "Brother, just treat him like the kid next door. Don't be so reserved. Young Master Lang is a very nice person."

Then he turned to the indifferent Murong Minglang and said, "And Young Master Lang, just treat him like me, do whatever you want with him. We're all family, don't be shy."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Tang Yue. To be honest, although Tang Yue was a bit introverted in modern times, she became very outgoing once everyone got to know her. Most importantly, although she knew that the hierarchy here was very strict, she had never truly felt the oppression of hierarchy.
