Lu Zhaoan walked over here, without looking at Qiaoniang, and directly reached out to stop Lu Jingan.
Lu Jing'an was in high spirits when he was suddenly stopped, which made him very unhappy. He looked up and was about to curse at the person who had come to him.
But when he saw that the person who came was Lu Zhaoan, he immediately wilted.
"Second brother..."
Lu Zhaoan gave him a cold glance, and the once arrogant little tyrant of Shuojing immediately cowered like a kitten seeing a stranger, not daring to utter a sound.
Qiao Niang was then able to reach Yao Niang's side, and she protected Yao Niang behind her like a mother protecting her chick, while watching the two Lu brothers in front of her warily.
Seeing that Lu Zhao'an remained silent, Lu Jing'an mustered his courage and said, "This young lady seems to be drunk. I thought it would be inconvenient for the two weak women to return to the manor like this, so I kindly wanted to help them..."
He wanted to explain further, but seeing Lu Zhaoan's increasingly cold gaze, he realized that Lu already knew the whole story, so he dared not argue anymore and fell silent.
Lu Jing'an had always held his second brother in awe. In his childhood, he thought his brother was a businessman and an outcast of the clan, so he often provoked him. At first, Lu Zhao'an didn't argue with him, but after a while, he severely punished him a few times.
He was unwilling to suffer a loss, so he tearfully complained to his elders. However, his mother, who had always doted on him, forbade him from causing any more trouble for Lu Zhaoan.
At that time, he didn't understand and cried and made a fuss several times, but his mother was unmoved each time. When his father found out, he would be scolded by his father.
He was a spoiled brat, but not a fool. Knowing that this person was not to be trifled with, I stopped provoking him.
Lu Jing'an couldn't understand Lu Zhao'an's position in the family. When the clansmen mentioned him, some were contemptuous and disdainful, while others felt sorry for him. But no one dared to provoke him.
Compared to his own reckless behavior, which required careful consideration of the situation, he felt extremely envious of Lu Zhaoan's status at home, which no one dared to provoke, and unconsciously developed a sense of awe and admiration for him.
Seeing that Lu Jing'an had shut up, Lu Zhao'an snorted, "Aren't you going to leave?"
Lu Jing'an quickly responded and led a group of friends upstairs. The young master, who had initially looked reluctant, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He lagged behind as he went upstairs, glancing back several times before finally disappearing at the end of the stairs.
Seeing that the crisis was over, Qiaoniang breathed a sigh of relief and curtsied to Lu Zhaoan, saying, "Thank you, Boss Lu."
Lu Zhaoan gave a faint "hmm".
Seeing that Gu Yaoniang's eyes were still misty with spring water, he felt a pang in his heart. He turned his head to look aside politely and said, "From now on, when you go out alone, don't drink too much."
Qiao Niang's face seemed to burn, and she could only stammer out her thanks.
