Chapter 292 Heart Joy

Lu Feng was unwilling to accept this and suppressed his anger. What else could he say now that things had come to this? No one really cared about his feelings. Everyone only cared about whether Lu Jing's power and position would be affected.

They would rather be blind, cover their eyes and pretend to know nothing.

What can he do?

Nothing can be done.

Even hatred has to be suppressed.

Su Qingwan walked out of the Lu family and took a long breath. Qingyun asked in confusion, "Miss, the way Lu Feng looks at you, he hates you so much, as if you betrayed him. It's ridiculous. It was obviously she who let down the eldest princess first. Can the elders of the Lu family suppress her? It feels like he is a mad dog, biting everyone he sees."

"We can't control what he thinks, so we can only take one step at a time. If he behaves himself, I won't argue with him. If he doesn't repent, there's no need for me to take action."

Li Yue said, "What the princess said is true. The elders of the Lu family will take action. It is obvious that Lord Lu is afraid of affecting the reputation of the Third Master and will not allow Lu Feng to act recklessly. You don't have to dirty your hands for him."

Li Yue is Lu Jing's person, so naturally she is considering Lu Jing. No matter what, Lu Jing and Lu Feng are brothers. If Su Qingwan really wants to do something to Lu Feng, Lu Jing is a sandwich and it is not easy to deal with. It is best for them to keep to themselves and live in peace.

Su Qingwan got on the carriage, and Qingyun and Li Yue followed her back to the villa. Su Qingwan asked Li Yue, "Did Lu Feng spread the rumor that Lu Jing and his eldest sister-in-law were having an affair?"

"It has been spread, but it has been controlled by Li An. The Jinyiwei have spies all over Kyoto, and the Third Master has also sent people to keep an eye on the eldest son. It will be difficult for him to do anything he wants. Princess, don't worry about affecting your reputation."

"I'm not worried, I just think he is stupid, as stupid as always." Su Qingwan felt it was a pity that her sister was deceived by his gentle appearance and gave her heart to the wrong person. Fortunately, her sister didn't know that her husband had betrayed her before she died. She just thought that Li Xueying had done something evil. If she had known before she died... she would probably die with her eyes open and would not let them go even as a ghost.

Li Yue sighed and said, "The eldest son was not like this before. He was a scholar, a gentleman, and he treated the eldest young lady with respect and they loved each other very much. After he went to Kyoto, he changed. Perhaps it was because the wealth and fame in Kyoto were so attractive that he wanted to climb up the social ladder and gradually lost his original intention. Later, he was demoted and lost his official position. He was arrogant and proud, and when he encountered a sudden change, he felt resentful and went astray. In fact, if he just let go of the past, the third master would not ignore him. He could find a sinecure in a year or two and live a good life relying on the power and status of the third master. He had to disturb the family."

Qingyun snorted coldly, "He deserves it. This is what he deserves. Otherwise, our eldest princess would have died in vain."

Su Qingwan remained silent, looking out the window, and made no comment on the matter. In short, if Lu Feng behaved himself, she would not bother with him in the future. If he continued to make trouble, she would not be polite.

After returning to the villa, she wrote a letter and sent someone to deliver it to the Xie family in Jiangnan. She was afraid that Lu Feng would suddenly send someone to look for her sister, so the Xie family had to make preparations in advance.

However, sooner or later they would know that she was secretly handling the Xie family's business. She saw that Lu Shaoqing's attitude was that he would no longer care about this matter. Even if he knew that she was Xie Zhaolan, he would probably turn a blind eye.

He is very smart. This is the vision and attitude that the head of the family should have. Love is not important at all. Family honor and prosperity are the most important. A scandal that could have been covered up is not known to everyone.

"Lu Feng alone can't cause any trouble!"

After Lu Jing knew that Su Qingwan had gone to the Lu family, he hurried back. He only saw Su Qingwan in the other courtyard. He was still wearing the regent's court robes, and it was obvious that he had rushed back from the court. He was obviously anxious.

"You...did they embarrass you?" Lu Jing was holding back his anger, but it was certainly not directed at Su Qingwan. This matter should have been resolved by him. Whether it was his mother or the Lu family, they were all his relatives. It was he who insisted on Su Qingwan, so he had to deal with these public opinions and should not let her face it alone.

It was his negligence!

Su Qingwan smiled gently. The weather was getting hotter and the court robes were heavy. He came back without stopping, his forehead full of sweat. Su Qingwan didn't know why, but her heart softened and she took a soft handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off his forehead.

During Lu Jing's entire time, Su Qingwan rarely behaved so gently and intimately in front of others. This was at the gate of the villa, in full view of everyone, so Li Yue, Qingyun and others avoided looking at her.

He smelled a fragrant breeze as a soft handkerchief gently brushed across his forehead. The fragrance became stronger and stronger. It was the fragrance that came from her every move, soothing all the anxiety in his heart.

He looked at her smiling eyes, his ears turned slightly red, his heart beat faster, and he suddenly had an urge to kiss her eyes. He liked Su Qingwan's smiling eyes for him so much, as if all the troubles were far away from them, and there was only him in her eyes.

"I went to the Lu family on a whim and just said a few words. They didn't make things difficult for me, and I think... they won't make things difficult for me in the future." Su Qingwan said lightly.

Lu Jing stared at her hand. Su Qingwan felt strange and waved her hand in front of him. "What are you looking at?"

"That was the first time you smiled at me."

Su Qingwan was shocked. "Really? You must be lying. I often smile at you when I try to please you."

When she was the Princess of Southwest, she always greeted him with a smile. How could this be the first time she smiled at him? Was she serious? In fact, she had never disliked Lu Jing from the beginning to the end. Although she had calculated and was impatient at times, she had never questioned his character, so she had never really been annoyed with him. Even if she had been a little bit annoyed, it was only because he was the innocent fish.

Lu Jing laughed, but Su Qingwan was dazzled by his smile. She felt that God had been kind to him as he inherited Zhang's beauty and had a face that could make young girls' hearts flutter.

The reason why she picked him up back then was because of his handsome face.

"You also said that you were trying to please me, but that smile was not genuine." Lu Jing said with a smile. Unlike now, she was smiling at him sincerely. He suddenly felt very much looking forward to it, very much looking forward to their wedding.

Su Qingwan couldn't help but reflect on herself, was she too harsh on Lu Jing? Even a smile could move him so much.

The two of them walked into the villa together. Su Qingwan told everyone what happened today and the attitude of the Lu family. In fact, except for Lu Feng, everyone was fine.

The two of them had arrived at the pavilion. The weather was getting hotter. The pavilion was close to the water and the breeze was blowing gently. It was Su Qingwan's favorite place to stay. Qingyun ordered someone to bring some cold tea over.

Lu Jing drank several cups of herbal tea in one breath. Lu Jing said, "I told my mother about you. Although my mother was a little repulsive, she felt more sorry for her deceased sister-in-law. After knowing my attitude, she never tried to stop me. As long as she didn't forcefully stop me, the matter would be half done. My uncle wanted the family to prosper, so even if you were really my sister-in-law, he would turn a blind eye. If I were a little weaker, he might have reprimanded me and stopped me, but he knew that the regent and the border wanted to form an alliance, and you were the only choice. He would not ruin this marriage, so I didn't tell him. I didn't expect my aunt to bother you."

"It's not really a bother. She probably feels sorry for Lu Feng being humiliated. In her mind, we are all villains, and she has been secretly bullying Lu Feng for a long time." Su Qingwan sneered, "If she hadn't been so indulgent, Lu Feng wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous."

"Come to think of it... it's not wrong!" Lu Jing raised his eyebrows and couldn't help thinking, when Su Qingwan was his elder sister-in-law, he seemed to have paid too much attention to her. If Princess Southwest hadn't come to Kyoto, would he have fallen into the trouble of falling in love with someone else? During that time, he paid more and more attention to his elder sister-in-law, and he was so focused that he avoided her a little.

Why would they avoid it? It’s simply because they feel guilty.

Therefore, the aunt's accusation was justified. He was indeed not so upright. How could he know that the person he loved was right in front of him.

"We followed the rules and didn't cross the line at all."

"Not necessarily. Who was it in the ancestral hall who said he loved me?" Lu Jing began to dig up the past. After knowing her identity, the scene in the ancestral hall had a different meaning to him, and he would no longer feel only embarrassment when recalling it.

At that time, he had a big fight with Lu Feng because he was really ashamed and angry because his true feelings were touched. However, the emotion was too subtle and he suppressed it. He did not notice the special way his elder sister-in-law treated him.

"That was a lie!" Su Qingwan's face turned slightly red and she took a sip of her cold tea.

Lu Jing couldn't help but ask, "Really? Xiaowu, every time you said you liked me, you were lying to me. Wasn't it true every time?"

Su Qingwan was speechless by his question and didn't know how to answer him for a moment.
