Chapter 555 Let’s Go
Miss Du kept it a secret, "This invitation is extremely valuable. It's absolutely impossible for ordinary people to get it. Even if my Du family wanted to give out a few copies, it wouldn't be easy. The reason for obtaining the invitation must be reasonable, otherwise I'm afraid it will attract criticism from the heroes of the martial arts world."
She put her hands behind her back and looked at the Lu family members calmly: "I can guarantee that there will be what you want in the conference, but the conditions are..."
Lu Yunjue pursed his lips: "What are the conditions?"
"Of course I want you, the handsome second son of the Lu family, to marry me." Miss Du said with a smile.
Lu Yunjue's expression suddenly changed: "Don't even think about it!"
Mu Qing and Hu Xin'er looked at each other. If possible, they would naturally want to get the medicinal materials as soon as possible, so as to save the Taoist priest and others from the trouble of traveling outside.
Searching for medicine outside is not as easy as imagined. It is bound to go through many hardships and obstacles. Although the Taoist priests are very skilled in martial arts, who knows if Jiang Yao has made any enemies in the martial arts world in the past?
And to be honest, her temper is not very good. She offended the local tyrant Zhou Chenghe within just a few days in Qingzhou. People are always worried about her traveling outside.
Can……
"If mother knew that Yun Jue, a man of such stature, was going to marry someone else, she would definitely be furious!" Although Hu Xiner liked to gossip, it didn't mean that she would be so foolish as to give her brother-in-law to someone else. She had a clear mind.
Mu Qing's dislike for Miss Du increased even more. "She's using clues about the medicinal herbs to pressure Yu Yun Jue. This Miss Du is truly moody and despicable!"
Miss Du didn't want to make things too awkward with them. Seeing that they all looked resistant and wary, she blinked her long eyelashes gently, and her face under the firelight became more peaceful and tranquil.
Just looking at her appearance, who would have thought that she was a woman with a bad reputation and a habit of hunting for women in Qingzhou City?
She said softly, "Mr. Lu, I'm just telling you this clue. As for whether you want it or not... you have to think about it carefully. I hope to get your answer in one stick of incense."
Lu Yunjue wanted to refuse firmly, but he glanced at Mu Qing out of the corner of his eye. His lips opened, but he couldn't speak.
Some dark thoughts hidden beneath the bright and cheerful appearance began to sprout again.
In fact, a big part of the reason why he rejected Miss Du was that he had a shadow Gu in his body, which made it impossible for him to marry anyone else. This was also a kind of responsibility to others.
But since Miss Du used threats and bribes to coerce him, why didn't he take advantage of her trick and tell her about the Shadow Gu after he successfully obtained the herbs, so that he could escape?
Miss Du's eyes were full of smiles as she looked at him carefully, with a hint of expectation in her brows.
Many things flashed through Lu Yunjue's mind in an instant, and finally stopped at the kiss with ulterior motives in the tunnel.
That was the first time those long-lost dark thoughts emerged since leaving Liu Se.
perhaps……
At this moment, a broad figure blocked his way.
Mu Qing couldn't bear to see his brother in such a state of embarrassment, so he spoke loudly to Miss Du, "There's no need to wait another stick of incense. There are other ways to find the herbs. My Lu family doesn't need to cling to your power! Miss Du, you act so confident, who are you looking down on?"
He spoke with sarcasm: "I guess you used these same tricks when you were hunting for beauties in the past?!"
How could the Du family's disciples tolerate their eldest sister being bullied? Before leaving, the master had to tell them to take good care of the eldest sister.
Someone immediately said unhappily, "Hey, how can you say that? With our eldest sister's family background and appearance, how could she not be worthy of your poor boy?!"
Mu Qing didn't want to talk to these idle people, so he replied calmly, "Today, Miss Du can use her power and status to force us. If a prince takes a fancy to Miss Du in the future, will the Du family readily agree and offer her to him?"
Miss Du couldn't help but frown and said, "I was sincere and honest, and it was Lu Yunjue who offended me first, so why do you say that to me?"
She felt that her behavior was reasonable. Is there anything wrong with pursuing someone?
Mu Qing raised his eyes, his gaze sharp: "Is there any difference?"
Miss Du was intimidated by his aura and was stunned for a moment.
Yeah, is there any difference?
In fact, she didn't think she liked Lu Yunjue very much, but she just couldn't swallow the anger of being bullied.
Moreover, she is a person who cares a lot about face. Since she had said in front of her parents that she wanted to take revenge on Lu Yunjue, she must do it.
After returning home, Du's mother kept talking about how the second young master Lu had a good character, good looks, and a good family background. In short, there was nothing bad about him. She was fed up with it.
But Master Du said, "No matter how good he is, he still doesn't like our daughter! Look at all the men Xiaoqin has flirted with before, which one of them could ever fall in love with her?"
He felt ashamed because of his previous misunderstanding of the Lu family, and he was always bullied at home, so he couldn't help but tell the truth.
It was this sentence that became the fuse that made Miss Du come over to express her love.
She just wanted to find a way to make Lu Yunjue like her, and also make everyone in the family look at her with admiration.
Faced with Mu Qing's question, Miss Du remained silent.
The disciples nearby couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment when they saw this scene. Their eldest sister had never been so persistent in pursuing a man before. If she encountered clear opposition, she would go home in disappointment and wait until the next handsome man appeared before making her move.
The second young master Lu in front of her was the only one who bravely moved forward after Miss Du suffered setbacks.
Therefore, they naturally sided with Miss Du and wanted to bring her together with Lu Yunjue.
"This young master of the Lu family really doesn't show any mercy at all." Someone whispered.
"Elder Sister is only a woman after all. How could she be humiliated like this in front of everyone? The Lu family is going a bit too far..."
Hu Xin'er couldn't help but say, "There are always beautiful women out there. Although our family does need medicinal herbs, we can't sacrifice Yun Jue's marriage for them. Miss Du should find someone else."
There are only two uses for that medicinal herb. The first is to treat Lu's mother, and the second is to make the Wanxiang Pill for Mu Qing.
However, some medicine had been taken from the palace before, so there was no shortage of medicine to treat Lu's mother for the time being. Moreover, after Lu's mother recognized Jiang Ning, her condition was obviously better than before.
As for Mu Qing...she felt that it didn't matter whether he restored his appearance or not, after all, he was still so handsome.
In this case, why must we sacrifice Yun Jue?
Miss Du flicked her sleeves and said, "Okay, let's go!"
