Chapter 293 People from the same family don’t enter the same door
Lu Ning looked at his expression and felt more certain. He winked nervously, "Hey, tell me the truth, do you like that girl Zhao Xi?"
Wei Dong's eyes flickered, but he nodded without hesitation: "Yes, I like her. I want to marry her and grow old with her. I want to be buried with her even after death."
Lu Ning was stunned. After a while, he came to his senses and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother, I respect you as a man!"
He felt that Lu Ning might not understand Zhao Xi's character, so he said, "We are all brothers, and I can't just watch you fall into the fire pit. I have to tell you about our Miss Zhao Xi."
Wei Dong raised his eyebrows: "You say."
Lu Ning said, "You know Zhao Xi holds a very high position, right? Of course, this is partly because the adults trust her, and partly because she saved many people. But in reality, many people fear her more than they respect her."
Speaking of this, Lu Ningke had a lot to say, and he had a lot of sad tears to shed.
"When she was little, this girl was extraordinary. Apart from the adults and the madam - that is, our adults' mother, she looked down on everyone. When I was little, I didn't know any better, and she always followed the adults around like a little tail. I just called her a word in front of her, and she pricked me with a needle!" Lu Ning felt very aggrieved: "I stuttered for a whole month, a whole month! Every time I spoke, I stuttered. But the adults also spoiled her, saying that I deserved it and never made a decision for me."
Wei Dong frowned and looked at him dissatisfiedly: "She is just a little girl, just relying on adults. How can you say that to her? Adults are right, you deserve it!" After a pause, he continued: "Miss Zhao Xi has been kind since she was a child. It's just that you made her stutter. If it were me, I would have made you mute directly."
Lu Ning: “…”
Lu Ning was stunned. He never expected that his brother would be such a cruel person.
Lu Ning calmed down and said, "This is probably the saying that people from the same family are alike. I won't try to persuade you. If you like, as brothers, I will definitely help you."
Wei Dong smiled shyly, "Well, thank you very much, I really like her." He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips: "I also hope that she can like me, just like I like her."
Lu Ning found his expression very annoying.
Jealousy can completely change a person's character. He deserves to be single.
After Wei Dong confirmed that there was no romantic relationship between Zhao Xi and Lu Chenyang, he no longer suppressed his feelings.
And he has countless people around him to assist him.
Weidong was seriously injured while saving Lu Chenyang, which became his life-saving golden ticket, and everyone was very grateful to him for this. Everyone also recognized his character and ability. He now liked Zhaoxi, which was considered a suitable match, so everyone was very willing to help them.
The servants under him were also punished, mainly because Weidong's medicine was delivered by Zhaoxi himself. Whenever Zhaoxi had something to do, someone else would rush to get it.
"I will go and change the medicine for the wounded soldier. Miss Zhaoxi, you should go and take care of Lord Wei. Lord Wei's injury needs Miss Zhaoxi more!" The servant hurriedly snatched the medicine from Zhaoxi's hand, turned around and left.
Zhao Xi didn't think much about it and went to change Weidong's medicine.
After a long time, even Lu Chenyang knew about it.
In the study, Lu Chenyang looked at Lu Ning, who was eating and drinking for free under the guise of a bodyguard, and raised an eyebrow: "Why don't you leave? How long will you stay here? Huai'an City needs to be rebuilt, and Weidong is injured again. Aren't you going back?"
Lu Chenyang should have set off for Huai'an City a long time ago, but because Weidong was injured and it was not suitable for him to move, Lu Chenyang was delayed. However, the army had already set out for Huai'an City and had already recaptured it, so it was impossible to lose it again.
Lu Ning was stunned. He didn't expect that he was disliked.
He said, "My lord, you just had an assassination incident. I'm worried about you, so of course I have to stay by your side to protect you."
Lu Chenyang sneered: "Really? Aren't you here to help Weidong snatch my people?!"
Even a blind person can see Wei Dong’s feelings for Zhao Xi, so how could Lu Chenyang not know?
He felt a little dissatisfied with Wei Dong. He was not dissatisfied with Wei Dong as a person, but was dissatisfied with the thief who wanted to steal his juicy cabbage.
Lu Chenyang seldom visited Weidong these days. The little brat saved him and now comes to steal the cabbage he raised!
Lu Ning knew he couldn't hide it, so he smiled and said, "My Lord, wouldn't you be happy to see this happen? You should be very satisfied with Weidong, right?"
If not, Lu Chenyang would have intervened long ago. Why did he remain silent? He clearly recognized Wei Dong's position.
Lu Chenyang didn't say anything, which was true.
Lu Ning spoke well of his good brother: "Weidong is smart, intelligent, and capable. He has performed so well in such a short period of time, which shows his ability. Especially when he saved you this time, the decisiveness and courage he showed were extraordinary."
Lu Chenyang nodded in agreement. Facing the little girl he loved, Lu Chenyang was no exception. He wanted to find a girl with outstanding abilities who felt that ordinary people were not worthy of him.
His family is so powerful that she deserves the best man in the world to match her. Weidong is barely qualified.
Lu Ning added, "He didn't abandon his fellow villagers and comrades even in the face of life and death, which shows his loyalty. He didn't give up on survival even when he was imprisoned, which shows his perseverance and responsibility. He met a wise leader and studied tirelessly in areas he wasn't good at, which shows his ambition. As for his looks... he's not bad at all, and he's quite strong. I think he's a good match for Zhao Xi."
Lu Chenyang raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, he can still win people's hearts. It has only been a short time, and Lu Ning is already speaking for him like this.
Lu Chenyang remained silent. Lu Ning, feeling uncertain, could not help but ask, "Sir, do you... agree or not?"
Lu Chenyang's eyes were deep: "If he wants to marry my Zhao Xi, he should come to me and ask for it himself."
Lu Ning's eyes lit up, which meant that the adults agreed.
Lu Ning was overjoyed and stood up immediately: "I... I'll tell him right now." He couldn't help but speak well of his brother: "Sir, he is injured now, and he was injured while trying to save you. Considering that he is an injured person, please don't be too..."
Lu Chenyang looked at him coldly, and Lu Ning immediately shut up, turned around and left.
Lu Chenyang snorted softly. Lu Ning actually spoke so well of him?!
But isn’t this also Weidong’s success as a person?
When Wei Dong heard Lu Ning say that Lu Chenyang no longer objected to his relationship with Zhao Xi, he almost jumped up.
Lu Ning quickly stopped him, "Don't worry! You're still injured. The adults said we should wait until you're better before we talk."
Wei Dong said, "How can that be? I'm much better now. Since the Lord has agreed, I must go and thank the Lord to show my sincerity." He couldn't help but push him away. "Don't stop me. Let someone carry me over. It's only a few steps away."
Lu Ning had no choice but to ask someone to carry him to Lu Chenyang's study.
Lu Chenyang was also a little surprised, and said helplessly: "Didn't I tell you, there's no rush? It's more important for you to recover from your injuries."
Weidong could only lie down now and couldn't stand up, but he still struggled to sit up.
"Sir, please forgive me for being so rude and unable to perform the ceremony." Wei Dong bowed and said, "Your Excellency is so kind, but I have to come. I sincerely want to marry Miss Zhaoxi, so I should come to you and express my feelings. Thank you for your help, and I will take good care of Miss Zhaoxi."
Lu Chenyang raised his eyebrows. "I don't object, but whether Zhao Xixi likes you or is willing to be with you is her business. It's no use for you to thank me." After a pause, he stared at Wei Dong and said, "Let me ask you, do you really want to be with Zhao Xixi?"
Wei Dong nodded without hesitation: "Miss Zhao Xi is kind-hearted and compassionate. I am truly fond of her."
Lu Chenyang stared into his eyes, and Wei Dong did not dodge, but faced his gaze calmly.
