Duan Yan dropped straight to his knees, face full of sincerity and gratitude, and gave Lu Zheng a deep formal bow.
Lu Zheng couldn't help but suck in a cold breath; he had never seen someone this shameless in his life.
The women of Five Beauties Manor were a bit stunned as well, then immediately reacted.
"Shameless!"
"Nonsense!"
"Your mind is clearly clear—you're obviously the one controlling that zombie!"
"Young Master Lu, don't believe him!"
Hu Cai Niang flicked a finger, sharp claws vaguely appearing as she prepared to rush up and finish him off.
But Lu Zheng stopped Hu Cai Niang.
Hu Cai Niang wasn't Bai Ting'Er; she didn't believe for a second that Lu Zheng would buy Duan Yan's bullshit. She just turned back and looked at Lu Zheng in confusion.
Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Duan Yan. "You were controlled by the zombie several months ago?"
"Exactly!"
