An Unparalleled Master of Martial Arts - Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Her Birthday

In front of Lu Zixuan’s home, Lu Yun hesitates.

At this time, Lu Zixuan opens the door. The two look at each other for a moment.

She is in a blue dress today, very beautiful. When she notices Lu Yun staring at her, a flush comes to her cheeks.

“Why…, come on in!” she says.

“Okay,” Lu Yun’s heart beats faster. It is the first time for him to enter her home.

Lu Zixuan pours a cup of tea for Lu Yun and says, “We are to cook together, then go to celebrate my birthday by the stream.”

“I agree.” Lu Yun replies with a silly smile.

Lu Zixuan gives him a look and starts the preparation.

It is not exaggerating to say that Lu Zixuan is the fairest in Yidong City. Even when looking at her washing vegetables, Lu Yun is intoxicated.

“Zi Xuan!”

A voice very unpleasant to Lu Zixuan comes into the house. The one at the door is the last person she wants to see.

I asked your grandfather. He said that you are at home. Hurry up and open the door. Everyone is here to celebrate your birthday. I especially hired the chef from the Joy Tsin Lau Restaurant in Yidong City to cook for the celebration!” Lu Ji says.

Apparently Lu Ji is prepared. He has been planning a birthday party for Lu Zixuan since several days ago. He is prepared to officially inform the youth of the clan that Lu Zixuan is his woman.

Lu Yun says, “If you don’t open the door, it will be unfavorable for you, your grandfather and me.”

Lu Zixuan utters a sigh and is obviously disappointed. She drops the vegetable in her hands to open the door.

The people come from outside are Lu Ji, Lu Qi, Lu Yu, Lu Mao, and a few of their followers. To set off Lu Zixuan’s beauty, Lu Ji brings several plain-looking girls as well.

At the sight of Lu Yun sitting leisurely inside, Lu Ji is immediately filled with anger.

For so many years, Lu Zixuan never invited a person for her birthday. He had thought that Lu Zixuan was cold to everyone.

If the one sitting inside were someone else rather than the notorious good-for-nothing of the clan, Lu Ji wouldn’t have been so angry.

Lu Yun takes a sip of tea calmly and says to the crowd, “Zixuan is going to invite you all. I arrived only a moment ago.”

This is a lie, but a good way to smooth things over.

Because it is Lu Zixuan’s birthday, Lu Ji has to keep his temper. But at the bottom of his heart, he has already made a vow to make Lu Yun lick his boots after Lu Zixuan’s birthday party.

Otherwise, it is difficult for him to resolve his hatred.

At the banquet, all know that it is a delicate situation and sit a bit farther away from Lu Zixuan, leaving to Lu Ji the seat next to her. But Lu Yun takes the seat.

This makes Lu Ji tightens his fist.  With sarcasm, he says “Lu Yun, a good-for-nothing like you deserves the seat?!”

Lu Ji is already furious. He can’t tolerate Lu Yun sitting next to Lu Zixuan. With his humble position in the clan, Lu Yun is not qualified for sitting next to him either, the young master of the clan.

Were it in the past, Lu Yun would definitely stand up in fear.

If so, Lu Zixuan will be so embarrassed as not to insist on his staying at the party.

However, Lu Yun casts a cold look at Lu Ji. It seems that the conflict between the two can erupt at any moment. Lu Ji is shocked, saying to himself, “the good-for-nothing has become so courageous!”

Lu Zixuan touches Lu Yun’s foot under the table with great concern. But the nerd smiles at her. This scene makes Lu Ji’s face distorted.

“Lu Ji, are you here to make trouble today?” Lu Zixuan asks.

“I am here to celebrate your birthday for sure.” Lu Ji answers moodily.

However, when he looks at Lu Yun with resentment, he finds that the other is looking at him in the same way.

Unbelievable!

Suddenly, Lu Ji comes up with a good idea. He is to defeat Lu Yun and let Lu Zixuan feel that it is the worst thing she has done having invited Lu Yun to her birthday party.

Lu Ji signals with his eyes at the crowd, and they immediately understand. Lu Qi says, “Lu Yun, you don’t have a chance to eat the food like this, do you? You must eat more today. Otherwise, you will have to wait for a year to have the food like this at Zi Xuan’s next birthday party.”

“Ha ha ha!” The crowd bursts into laughter.

Lu Yun grins,” The delicacies of Joy Tsin Lau Restaurant are delicious. I will have to eat there often.”

“If it is your treat, remember to take me with you.” Seeing the war between the two is inevitable, Lu Zixuan has to take her side.  She decides to be on Lu Yun’s side.

“Of course, if you come with me, it will surely be my treat.” Lu Yun says.

Lu Ji sneers and decides it is the right time.

He takes out a carefully prepared gift and says “Zixuan, happy birthday! Something small I prepared for you. Please accept it.”

All his followers immediately understand and present the gifts they brought. These gifts are not as good as the one given by Lu Ji, but they are also very expensive.

Now, everyone is staring at Lu Yun.

Lu Ji’s leer in his smile is more and more intense.  He says to himself, “Lu Yun, what can you come up with to compete against me?”
