Chapter 563: Tragedy Caused by Comics
Mu Qing has always had a prejudice against Miss Du.
But now, seeing that she was so righteous and had no intention of pestering Lu Yunjue, he said softly, "If the Du family needs any help, we will certainly help them."
Miss Du glanced at him and said, "My mother is right. Your family is indeed worthy of friendship."
She blinked, her hand unconsciously touching her braid: "Actually, I feel quite sorry for you. Because in the beginning I pestered the Second Young Master purely because I was angry that he arrested me and interrogated me, so I wanted to..."
Lu Yunjue paused while wiping his sword. He had not expected that Miss Du would admit her mistake to him.
"When will I interrogate you?" he asked.
Miss Du said weakly, "Isn't it that time when I climbed over your wall to see what you were doing, and you arrested me, interrogated me, and didn't let me go home until daybreak?"
Seeing her sincere attitude, Lu Yunjue rarely spoke: "It's nothing, I was the one who offended first."
Seeing him apologize, Miss Du inexplicably felt even more guilty. It turned out that this kind of thing was so simple to explain, which made her look petty before.
Her voice gradually became smaller and smaller. "Well, Second Young Master, I, I was planning to deceive your feelings first, and then cruelly abandon you as revenge. I'm sorry."
This time, not only did Lu Yunjue stop what he was doing and look at her quietly, but others also turned their eyes over.
Miss Du felt even more ashamed. "Stop reading it! Have some shame! It's all Zhao Si's fault. I loved reading that crappy comic back then, and I unconsciously copied the plot."
Mu Qing silently glanced at his wife. Alas, after the eldest princess, there was another woman who was poisoned by comics.
Hu Xin'er never expected that this boomerang could fly towards her, but she couldn't say that she had drawn this cartoon, so she could only force a smile: "Haha..."
It turned out that the trouble Yun Jue had been in recently was actually related to his sister-in-law.
"I'm so ashamed of Yun Jue." She closed her eyes and thought quietly, "It's a good thing I didn't reveal my identity as the author at the time, otherwise how would I face them now?"
Lu Yunjue couldn't help but laugh.
Miss Du gritted her teeth and said, "Second Young Master, please behave like a human being. You usually look serious, but today, you've already laughed at me twice!"
Lu Yunjue nodded, regained his composure and continued polishing his sword.
Probably because they knew Miss Du and the others would come to rest, a simple and elegant brazier was placed in the Du family cave. Everyone sat around the brazier, and several disciples were guarding outside.
Sparks occasionally appeared above the red-hot charcoal fire, exuding a playful air.
It took Hu Xin'er a long time to accept the fact that her comics could harm people.
Seeing the atmosphere was a little awkward, she stepped out to smooth things over: "It's okay, Miss Du, we all know you have a kind heart. For example, with this Wonderful Medicine Conference, if it weren't for your help, we don't know how long it would take us to find the herbs."
Miss Du's face showed a guilty look again: "Actually, those invitations were given to you by my father. The idea of letting the second young master be a live-in son-in-law was just something I made up."
A big exclamation mark popped up in everyone's head.
Only Lu Yunjue couldn't help but laugh softly when he saw her miserable appearance.
"I know you were tortured by me before." Miss Du suppressed his ridicule and said humbly, "But that's because I haven't been able to get back at you, right? So I did something a little extreme. Anyway, thank you today."
In the awkward atmosphere, Hu Xiner didn't know how to start the conversation.
None of the disciples dared to spoil the show of their senior sister. They looked up at the sky and down at the ground.
Not to mention Mu Qing, he doesn't like to speak in front of outsiders.
Lu Yunjue was the victim after all, so he replied, "You're welcome."
Miss Du didn't know how to respond, so she nodded reluctantly. Although she was so embarrassed that her toes were tapping the ground, she was a little bit glad that Lu Yunjue gave her this face.
Otherwise, if no one gave her a way out, she would be very embarrassed.
"From now on, I really won't bother you anymore!" She promised after a while, "And you probably won't see me often. I'm busy going on blind dates... There are many better flowers in the world, so why bother with just one?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword appeared before his eyes.
She stared at Lu Yunjue blankly: "What are you doing? It's just a small matter, you don't have to give me a sword and ask me to commit suicide, right?"
Lu Yunjue said helplessly: "This is your sword."
Miss Du held her forehead with one hand and quickly took the sword with the other: "Thank you, thank you!"
Lu Yunjue smiled and said, "No need to thank me, we're even."
There was a noise outside, followed by three gongs. Miss Du quickly stood up and said, "The meeting is over. I'll have them escort you back. I just had an accident, and my father has already sent someone to pick me up."
She originally planned to send the Lu family back personally, but the assassination that just happened was obviously aimed at her.
She couldn't let the Lu family get involved, so she divided the people into two groups.
Hu Xin'er thought her actions were particularly thoughtful: "Then I wish Miss Du to find a good marriage soon."
Miss Du raised her eyebrows and smiled without any hesitation: "Of course, the task of carrying on the family line can only be left to me!"
Carrying so many things, Hu Xiner couldn't help but worry that bad guys would come to rob them. But now that she has the disciples of the Du family here, she doesn't have to worry too much.
Lu Yunjue stood up half a beat slower than the others and accidentally fell behind.
He did not rush forward, but stood quietly there, looking in the direction where Miss Du left.
He pinched his sleeve, feeling the touch of the paper inside through the fabric.
Inside was an invitation and a piece of flowery paper. The calligraphy on it was neat and elegant in small characters, so beautiful that it gave people a strange feeling when looking at it, both sour and sweet, with an indescribable taste.
Only after returning home did Hu Xiner feel tired. After all, she was a heavy person. Although she was still thinking about many things, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
When we had breakfast the next day, there was no sign of Lu's mother.
Hu Xin'er was a little surprised: "Normally, after sleeping for so long last night, Mom should have woken up by now."
They asked a doctor to take the patient's pulse, but the doctor said that the patient's condition was stable and there was nothing unusual.
Everyone had no choice but to wait patiently, but what they didn't expect was that Mother Lu slept for a very long time and showed no signs of waking up in the middle of the night.
Seeing the sun setting in the west, they finally couldn't sit still anymore...
