Holding a pet, and being a lady, does that mean she can narcissistically believe she's being talked about?
The deacon on the platform had already come down, and the crowd automatically parted to make way for Lu Yulan.
Sure enough, it really was her.
"Did you need something?"
"Madam, my lady is interested in your pet and hopes you will part with it. We are willing to pay any price, and we are even willing to exchange it for something else. I can find you an even more beautiful pet. What do you say?"
The other party still wore a perfect mask, polite and courteous, but now Lu Yulan no longer looked at him with admiration, but with hostility.
She has already said that Xiaozhu is her family, not a pet. I believe this butler heard everything clearly during the argument just now. Now he keeps calling her a pet. Is he trying to force her to give in in front of everyone?
"I'm sorry, Xiaozhu is my family. I wouldn't trade her for any amount of money or anything else. Thank you."
He glanced at Chu Rui beside him and prepared to leave.
"Wait, this lady may not understand the illustrious status of our Catherine family. Allow me to give you a grand introduction. We are one of the five great noble families of the empire, possessing wealth that you could never have in ten or even a hundred lifetimes."
He was somewhat arrogant after saying that he had broken it.
Lu Yulan blinked, indicating that she understood, "So?"
What does that have to do with her? She has plenty of money, and as for a prestigious family background, ha! Sorry, she doesn't need it.
"So, you can think it over carefully. If you're willing to part with your pet, our young lady can give you a noble status from a collateral branch of the family."
"No need, thank you."
She keeps calling people "pets." If she weren't a well-mannered person, she would have scratched someone. You're the one with pets? Your whole family are pets.
Blah blah blah, when will this ever end?
"Little brother, let's go."
"Yes, Sister Lan."
Seeing that Lu Yulan was clearly unhappy, Chu Rui immediately forced the golden thorn grass seeds he had prepared to grow and placed them in front of the two of them, preventing the deacon from approaching again.
Sure enough, the other person narrowed their eyes, and the smile on their face faded considerably.
Seeing that Lu Yulan was about to leave the living room, he continued, "Madam, you really should think this over carefully. After all, the martial arts test at the First Military Academy is extremely difficult to pass. With Miss Julie's favor, perhaps you will..."
Threaten her?!
She wasn't raised on cuteness alone, so what threat could she possibly be afraid of?
"Thank you for your advice, sir. But you should worry about whether you can pass the exam first. After all, I'm determined to get into the First Military Academy. I hope we can meet again there."
Whether the assessment is difficult or not is none of her business; she's a teacher, thank you.
Seeing that neither gentle persuasion nor forceful tactics worked, the butler's face finally darkened.
Lu Yulan took Chu Rui back to her room, and only then did she feel her face getting a little hot. Although her younger brother Lu had scolded her many times, this was the first time she had been so assertive, and she felt a little timid after returning.
Then, looking at Chu Rui with some apology, he said, "I just made an enemy. Will that cause you trouble? Otherwise, I'll give you this bracelet as an emergency measure. I also have a tranquilizer weapon."
As she was about to untie the chain on her hand, Xiao Zhu stopped her, but Lu Yulan thought Xiao Zhu was just playing around.
"No need, Sister Lan. I was aiming for first place anyway. I'll make enemies sooner or later, so this is fine. It'll save me from having no one come to provoke me."
"Okay, alright, you must be careful. Safety is the most important thing. As long as you're alive, anything is possible."
