Urban Supreme Evil Young Master

After getting into the taxi, the driver enthusiastically greeted Lu Yu and Wen Ya, asking in a thick Beigang dialect, "Where are you two headed?"

The dialect of Beigang City is quite complex, originating from ancient Chinese, and if you're not a local, it's nearly impossible to understand what the driver is saying.

Upon hearing the driver's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly and then replied fluently in authentic Beigang dialect, "To Chongguang Square!"

Lu Yu spoke naturally and smoothly, without any ambiguity, just like a native of Beigang. Even the driver didn't notice any difference and happily agreed before driving towards Chongguang Square.

Hearing this, Wen Ya's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Lu Yu beside her, her eyes reflecting a hint of surprise, while recalling the hint of melancholy she saw on Lu Yu's face last night.

A person's demeanor and gaze often hide the stories of their past and the paths they've walked!

The melancholy on Lu Yu's face last night was unmistakably a look belonging to someone who has been through many ordeals, rich in stories, and shouldn't appear on someone of Lu Yu's age!

With this in mind, Wen Ya's curiosity about Lu Yu grew even stronger.

Regarding Lu Yu's demeanor five years ago, Wen Ya had heard from Leng Qingqiu. Five years ago, he was a playboy, wasting away his days. After disappearing for five years, not only did his playboy demeanor vanish, but he also returned with formidable skills. Wen Ya couldn't help but think there must be hidden secrets involved.

Now, an odd thought subconsciously formed in her mind: Lu Yu hadn't spent the entire five years on a deserted island!

Thinking of this, Wen Ya couldn't resist glancing at Lu Yu again, her eyes full of curiosity.

...

Chongguang Square is one of the three largest and most bustling commercial areas in Beigang City, also a beautiful scene that Beigang City boasts. On a typical day, the tourist flow here can reach an astonishing number!

After getting off the taxi, Lu Yu and Wen Ya strolled around Chongguang Square, looking at tourists coming and going and some shops. The unpleasant feeling from the Azure Dragon Association building gradually disappeared.

However, although in a better mood, Wen Ya seemed absent-minded. At this moment, she kept glancing at Lu Yu, intent on finding the trace of melancholy from last night.

But now Lu Yu's face was full of smiles, and the deep melancholy from last night seemed to have never been there at all.

Women are like cats, unable to resist their curiosity about things, and Wen Ya was no exception.

Though very intelligent, she couldn't escape a woman's natural curiosity.

Finally, she smiled slightly and charmingly said, "Brother"

"What's going on?"

Upon hearing Wen Ya's words, Lu Yu smiled gently, speaking as if nothing had ever happened.

"I have a question for you."

Wen Ya half-jokingly, half-seriously said. Being smart, she knew this could touch on the five years Lu Yu least wanted to talk about, so she chose the most tactful way to ask.

"Do I have to answer everything?"

Seeing Wen Ya asking him questions, Lu Yu sensed it might not be an easy question to answer.

"Of course not."

Smiling, Wen Ya appeared alluring, "But I hope to know."

"Alright, ask away then."

Lu Yu replied casually.

"In the past five years, have you been to Beigang City?"

Carefully wording her question, Wen Ya asked discreetly.

"Is that what you want to ask?"

Lu Yu exhaled lightly, "I've been here, and not just once."

Many gruesome memories flashed in Lu Yu's mind, but he quickly suppressed those thoughts.

He didn't want to dwell on those dark memories now.

Hearing this, Wen Ya was momentarily stunned, having not expected Lu Yu to admit so readily.

Lu Yu's repeated visits to Beigang City during his disappearance were indeed shocking news for Wen Ya.

Since Lu Yu could leave the deserted island, why didn't he return home right away, choosing to come back only recently?

This thought didn't bring Wen Ya any answers, but rather more questions.

Understanding Wen Ya's thoughts, Lu Yu shook his head, saying, "Sometimes, the truth doesn't satisfy your curiosity but brings more questions."

Lu Yu calmly said, "And I can tell you, actually, I stayed on the deserted island for three years and spent two years traveling many other places besides Beigang City!"

"Since you could leave the island, why not go home?"

Immediately, Wen Ya asked, her gaze filled with shock.

"Leaving the island doesn't mean I can go home."

Lu Yu shook his head, "Moreover, my home is long gone."

His relaxed words were nonetheless filled with sadness and helplessness that Wen Ya detected.

Seeing Lu Yu's smiling face, Wen Ya realized he bore burdens beyond what typical people could handle.

She wanted to ask more, but Lu Yu stopped her.

"Okay, Sister Demon, I've told you all I could. Asking further might be dangerous."

Lu Yu smiled warmly, "The world is big, beyond our imagination. Knowing more can be dangerous. Sometimes, Sister Demon, it's blissful to be ignorant."

Holding Wen Ya's hand, Lu Yu said, "Come on, there's a restaurant here with good food. I'll take you to try it."
