Chapter 89 Hesitant to Speak



She paused, then continued, "I saw with my own eyes that the fourth sister was about to attack the eldest sister. If I hadn't stopped her in time, the eldest sister would probably be gone now."

The eldest sister she mentioned was the unconscious Lu Changqing, and the fourth sister was Lu Baixue. This sounds very strange, but Lu Wan is indeed the youngest daughter of the Lu family.

If Lu Changqing hadn't run away from marriage, Lu Wan, who was half a year younger than Lu Baixue, would have had the opportunity to find a talented man of equal status to spend the rest of her life with, instead of being forced to marry into Prince Shen's mansion.

But what Lu Wan wanted to talk about today was not her substitute marriage, but another matter that was difficult to say out loud.

Emotionally speaking, Lu Wan does not regard Lu Changqing and Lu Baixue as her sisters, but Lu Changqing is more important to the future situation, so she must protect Lu Changqing.

But Lu Changxin is different. These two are her precious sisters. If he knew that Lu Wan attacked Lu Baixue in order to protect Lu Changqing, who knows what kind of trouble would happen.

It would be better to make this matter clear before any problems arise.

Looking at Lu Wan who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Lu Changxin quickly understood what she meant and expressed his attitude.

"It was wrong for Bai Xue to attack Chang Qing, but blood is thicker than water, so a small punishment is enough to warn her. I promise you, she will never dare to do that again."

Lu Wan looked at him in surprise.

If this was said about Lu Changqing, she would still believe it, but if it was said about Lu Baixue... forget it.

Lu Wan shook her head quietly and was seen by Lu Changxin. He put down his teacup and looked at the little sister with a smile, and asked, "You don't believe it?"

After a moment of hesitation, Lu Wan still chose to believe Lu Changxin and told the truth, "It's not that I don't want to believe this, but I have seen everything Fourth Sister has done these days with my own eyes. How can I dare to believe her again?"

Lu Wan was just speaking on the facts, but her words were unintentional but the listeners took them seriously. Lu Changxin suddenly remembered the days of misery that Lu Wan had spent in Prince Shen's Mansion and could not help but look at her with guilt.

As a man who stands tall and proud, but can't even protect his own family, isn't this cowardly?

It is precisely because of this that Lu Changxin cherishes every family relationship so much, and he also has reasons to think so.

"Why do you think your identity has not been discovered by King Shen?"

Lu Wan was stunned, "What?"

Seeing that she didn't understand, Lu Changqing said more bluntly, "You are not the eldest daughter of the Lu family, but for such a long time, no one in Prince Shen's Mansion discovered this."

Seeing Lu Wan's slightly frowned eyebrows, Lu Changxin said firmly, "After all, she is a girl from our Lu family. She will not hurt her own sisters. What happened before was just her momentary confusion. As long as we make her realize her mistake, she will never do it again."

Lu Wan: “…”

Although she really wanted to agree with Lu Changxin's point of view, could she really not do it?

Instead of hoping that Lu Baixue will realize her mistakes and correct them, it would be better to hope that the sun rises from the west.

Looking at Lu Changxin's burning gaze, Lu Wan didn't say anything to attack him after all. He just nodded with difficulty.

Lu Changxin is too upright. Although he has his own ambitions, he never harbors ill intentions towards others. This is his strength, but also his biggest weakness.

But for such a person, Lu Wan could only hope that Lu Baixue could feel her brother's thoughts and pull his mind back from the wrong path.

Having said what he wanted to say, Lu Wan stood up and said with a smile, "I have been out for a long time. I will go to Tianxianglou to buy some spices and then go back to Prince Shen's Mansion. Big brother, please go back to the barracks soon."

Lu Changxin nodded and walked Lu Wan out of the teahouse.

Before leaving, Lu Wan finally reminded Lu Changxin, "Brother, I know you don't like those twists and turns, but people's hearts are hidden, especially those in the officialdom, you must be worried."

Hearing this, Lu Changxin patted Lu Wan on the shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. Besides, isn't there Prince Shen here? If something really happened, she wouldn't just watch me, her brother-in-law, get framed, right?"

That's true.

Thinking of Shen Yan, Lu Wan was relieved. After nodding with a smile, he turned and left.

Although she promised Lu Changxin not to attack Lu Baixue, she had her own thoughts in her mind.

She could choose not to touch Lu Baixue, but this was based on the premise that Lu Baixue herself did not act like a thief. If Lu Baixue did something stupid like trying to kill Lu Changqing again, then it would be her fault for being rude.

Of course, it wouldn't be okay for Lu Baixue to frame him.

As soon as Lu Wan entered Tianxiang Tower, a waiter came up to him and asked with a smile, "Oh, it's unusual today to have such a well-dressed young man."

These words made Lu Wan feel a little shy, and she greeted him with a smile.

The waiter welcomed Lu Wan into the store and explained, "We sell rouge and powder here, but there are many ladies and young ladies, but few men. You must be buying rouge and powder for your sweetheart, right?"

Lu Wan now wears men's clothes, so naturally she doesn't need rouge and powder. The reason she came here was simply because when she was about to leave the house today, the two maids serving her knew that she was going out of the house, and they talked her into helping her take the rouge from Tianxiang Tower back.

But in this situation, what's the difference between going to the supermarket with a boyfriend to buy sanitary napkins for his girlfriend?

Lu Wan nodded awkwardly and reported what he wanted one by one.

The waiter was busy packing things for Lu Wan. During this time, Lu Wan lowered his head to look at the perfume powder on the table.
