Chapter 137: Making Trouble in Town

Lin Yuelan was a little surprised that Jiang Zhennan would throw her question back at her. This was his own face, so how could she answer for him?

Lin Yuelan didn’t get it. But she still answered seriously, “big brother Nan, a man with scars on his body is a real man, not to mention you’re a general, a hero, and a war god in the eyes of the world. So what if you have a scar on your face? You’re still a general. No matter what you look like, everyone will respect you and have no right to despise your appearance.” At this point, Lin Yuelan paused and touched the scar on Jiang Zhennan’s face again. With a sad and distressed tone, she said, “Big brother Nan, this wound must have hurt back then, right?”

Jiang Zhennan’s heart moved. Everyone only saw him as ugly and ferocious. People showed him fear or disdain. No one had really cared about him before.

Lin Yuelan was the first and only one to not be afraid or frightened after seeing his face. Instead, he saw heartache in her eyes.

Jiang Zhennan suddenly felt lucky that he had this scar on his face.

Because this scar allowed him to witness the hearts of people. There were black-hearted and disgusting people, but there were kind and sincere people too. He would treat the latter well. That was human nature.

Lin Yuelan didn’t notice the dazed expression on Jiang Zhennan’s face. She continued to speak, “However, the scar has become a weapon for the world to hurt you. It should be a symbol of your heroism. I won’t let it hurt you anymore!” She would help him remove the scar if he wanted.

When Jiang Zhennan heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank. His expression was grateful. He stretched out his hands that were originally holding the mask and held Lin Yuelan tightly. He said with some panic and excitement, “miss Yue ‘Er, thank you!”

Lin Yuelan looked at Jiang Zhennan and smiled sincerely. “Brother Nan, what are you thanking me for? This is the least I can do for a friend. People have done a lot more for their friends. I’m only removing a scar...”

Lin Yuelan stopped because Jiang Zhennan suddenly flung her hands away.

Jiang Zhennan was a grown man, but he had grabbed her hands. When he realized that, he immediately let go in a panic. He was too careless. How could he have done that?

If someone else saw this, Lin Yuelan’s reputation would be ruined! He wouldn’t be helping her then.

He immediately looked at Lin Yuelan with regret and guilt, “I’m... I’m sorry, miss Yue ‘Er. I... I shouldn’t have held your hands. Did I hurt you?” Then, he wanted to give himself a slap. What was he talking about? If someone overheard him, it would only make things worse.

Jiang Zhennan was vexed, but Lin Yuelan found it funny.

Of course, she knew what Jiang Zhennan was worried about.

In this ancient era where men and women were not allowed to touch each other, even a light touch would ruin one’s reputation, let alone a tight grip.

If someone heard or saw them, she would be labeled a promiscuous woman. At worst, she would be captured and drowned in the river.

However, she wasn’t a traditional woman from ancient times. She didn’t believe in such misogyny.

She wouldn’t suppress herself or see herself as inferior to men.

Of course, she also had her own bottom line. She wouldn’t act frivolously.

Lin Yuelan smiled and waved her hand. “Big brother Nan, it’s fine. Aren’t we friends? Do we need to be so formal among friends?”
