Chapter 218
Over the past few months, he had her on his mind at all times, thinking about her and unable to sleep at night
But Jizhou and the capital were far apart, and he didn’t even have news of her voice message
After enduring for a few months, he finally came up with a solution
First secretly encouraged Lu Hong to the capital to study, and then softly begged his parents to nod yes, also followed to the capital
Just arrived in the capital, not waiting to settle down, he urgently urged Lu Hong together to the Ling family
After waiting for most of the day, he finally waited for her
Unexpectedly, what he waited for was not the joy of reunion after a long time, but her face of indifference and disgust
Does she hate him that much?
The aggression in Lu Qian’s heart gathered a little bit in his chest, and a breath was blocked there, unable to come up or down, not to mention how difficult it wasCousin Shu,” Lu Qian’s tone of voice revealed some aggression and weakness, “We haven’t seen each other for so long
Are you so unwelcoming of me coming to see you?”
Ling Jingyan’s mouth was hard and her heart was soft, and although her heart loathed Lu Qian’s behavior, she couldn’t help but soften her heart when she looked at the weak and pitifulness that surfaced on that clear face
Subconsciously looked at Ling Jingshu
Ling Jingshu knew Lu Qian very well, and was even more disgusted by his usual show of weakness
Back then, when she was in the Lu family, Lu Qian had used such a look to deceive her time and time again
She treated him with the heart of a sister-in-law, but he had mischievous intentions towards her
His reckless displays of love had further pushed her into a difficult and embarrassing situation
To be soft on such a person was to be cruel to herself
Ling Jingshu looked at Lu Qian and said unflinchingly, “Cousin Qian, in three months, I’ll be fifteen, and you’re almost thirteen, so you’re not a child who doesn’t know any better
You should pay attention to what you say and do in front of people, so as not to cause misunderstandings
Today you say such words, is extremely inappropriate
We are cousins yes, but also pay attention to the difference between men and women
What was your intention in saying that just now?”Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, so no one will be too concerned to think about it
If there were outsiders present
It’s inevitable that misunderstandings will arise between you and me, and rumors will spread that shouldn’t be there
In the future, you have to think before you open your mouth”
Soft red lips, spit out words but sharp as a knife
Lu Qian was dumbfounded by the interrogation, his face slightly blanched
Ling Fifth Master and Sun, who had been keeping an eye on them, exchanged glances
They both saw the dissatisfaction in each other’s eyes
This Lu Qian, who was not young anymore, was not pleasant to talk to or act with
The love for Ling Jingshu is so obvious, is it afraid that others will not know that it will cause some gossip?
Ling Fifth Master coughed, ”Ah Shu, you have been a guest at the British Duke’s residence for most of the day
You must be tired already!
I’ll take care of things here, so go back to the house and rest first!”
Sun immediately picked up the conversation, “Yes, by the time dinner is served in the evening, I’ll send someone to call you”
Someone to stand up for herself in front of the Lu family brothers, Ling Jingshu couldn’t wait, and immediately smiled and agreed
Ling Xiao, who had been stifled for half a day, said, “I also feel tired, Ah Shu, I’ll accompany you back”
Saying this, he groped his way to Ling Jingshu’s side
The two siblings left hand in hand together
Leaving behind the Lu family brothers whose faces were embarrassed
Obviously, they were uninvited and unwelcome guests
Lu Hong was four years older than Lu Qian
His face was much thinner, and he was too embarrassed to shamelessly stay and quickly opened his mouth to say goodbye
Ling fifth master politely retained a few sentences, then no more
However, the work of face should always be done
Ling fifth master personally sent two people out of the house
Lu Qian was reluctant, but knew that staying any longer would really annoy people, and followed behind Lu Hong in silence
The Ling family’s gate grew further and further away, gradually disappearing from view
Lu Qian still stubbornly looked in the direction of the Ling family gate
As if this would enable him to see Ling Jingshu
Lu Hong frowned slightly, ”Alright, you’ve already turned two corners, stop probing and looking
It’s already out that far
What else can I see?”I’m happy to see, don’t want you to care!”
Lu Qian popped out a few words stiffly
Lu Hong was choked and almost couldn’t take a breath, only after a long time did he say with an iron face, “Lu Qian!
Don’t forget what father and mother told you before you came to the capital
If you dare to cause trouble in the capital, I will immediately send a letter home
You also don’t want to stay in the capital anymore”
Lu Qian turned back
With a disdainful sneer, “Is that all you can do is sue?”
Lu Hong’s face turned from green to red, anger burning in his chest, “Lu Qian!
All you do is flail around in front of me
If you’re so powerful, why didn’t you just tell them directly at the Ling family just now that you like cousin Shu
You purposely came to the capital just to see her?
She sneered coldly, so how come you became a wimp
Walked away obediently?”
This time, the person who was infuriated turned into Lu Qian
The two who were brotherly and friendly in front of outsiders were currently glaring coldly at each other as if they were facing an enemy!
Since disclosing his feelings towards Ling Jingshu, Lu Qian was in no mood to cover up in front of Lu Hong
The two brothers barely maintained peace in front of outsiders, but in private, sword clashes were a common occurrence
After a moment, Lu Hong snorted coldly and opened his mouth first to break the silence, “No matter what you want to do, you remember your own identity, don’t do anything to disgrace the Lu family”
Lu Qian tensed his face and responded expressionlessly, “I know what’s in my heart, I don’t need you to bother”
The two brothers glanced at each other one more time, then quickly averted their gazes
Looking at each other was nothing more than that!
The original brotherhood gradually wore away from an unknown time, and what was left was hostility towards each other
The carriage was silent, and the sound outside the carriage became indistinct through the thick carriage
At this moment, the horse pulling the carriage suddenly let out a long roar, and the carriage lurched violently
The seated Lu Hong Lu Qian did not take precautions and almost fell down in the carriageWhat happened?”
Lu Qian used his hand to cover his forehead, which was loaded with pain, and shouted angrily
Lu Hong’s arm was also touched and he also sucked in his breath in pain
However, his composure was far better than Lu Qian’s, and he first stopped the agitated and angry Lu Qian: “Don’t move first, I’ll go down and take a look”
At the critical time, he was still quite the elder brother
Unbeknownst to him, Lu Qian hated him the most
Wherever Lu Hong was present, he was always reflected in a dim light
In her previous life, Ling Jingshu had loved Lu Hong with all her heart and shunned his infatuation, and this matter was like a dark tumor that quietly grew in Lu Qian’s heartI’m going down together”
Lu Qian insisted with a cold face, as if he wanted to fight with Lu Hong
Lu Hong frowned and didn’t stop him, “It doesn’t matter if you want to get off the carriage, however, don’t speak freely and listen to me in everything”
