Chapter 183 I Won’t Look Back
Lu Sui moved so quickly that Jiang Yueyao had no time to react before he dragged her out of the shop.
Bai Shaochuan reacted immediately and chased after him and blocked Lu Sui.
He has always had a mild temper, but now his face turned cold.
"What is Lord Lu doing?"
Lu Sui was forced to stop.
He looked at Bai Shaochuan, his eyes cold and expressionless: "Get out of the way!"
Bai Shaochuan didn't move.
"Lu Sui should know that Yaoyao is no longer an orphan without a father or a mother. She is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion and is also the girl that our Bai family holds in high esteem. If she doesn't want to today, no one can take her away."
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Yueyao.
Jiang Yueyao frowned slightly.
Lu Sui held her very tightly, causing her wrist to hurt a little, and she struggled subconsciously.
"Let me go..."
"Let her go!" Shen Baoqing ran down from the second floor. When he saw Lu Sui bullying his sister, he rushed to him without saying a word and reached out to push him.
"Mr. Lu, are you sick? You're robbing people in broad daylight."
Lu Sui, who was pushed by her, did not move at all.
He didn't look at anyone, his dark eyes staring straight at Jiang Yueyao, his voice extremely low.
"I want to talk to you, just follow me!"
He held her wrist tightly and walked away.
Bai Shaochuan tried to stop him, but was blocked by him with one hand.
Although Lu Sui is a civil official, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his kung fu skills are no worse than Qingxuan beside him.
Although Bai Shaochuan also practiced martial arts, the Bai family trained their physical fitness, not fighting and killing.
Even with just a simple block, Bai Shaochuan's entire arm went numb.
But when he saw Lu Sui pulling Jiang Yueyao out, he and Shen Baoqing stopped them.
Stopped again.
Lu Sui's face suddenly darkened.
There were people coming and going on the streets, and the shops were full of people. Their movements quickly attracted a lot of people's attention.
Some people even gathered around to watch the fun.
Jiang Yueyao didn't want to be stared at in the street like this.
Moreover, she knew Lu Sui's character very well. He was tough and domineering, and Bai Shaochuan and Shen Baoqing could not stop him.
So, I simply gave up struggling.
She looked at Shen Baoqing and Bai Shaochuan, gently relaxed her eyebrows, and said soothingly: "Qingqing, you and cousin wait for me here, I will be back soon."
Shen Baoqing glared at Lu Sui angrily.
"If you dare to bully Yaoyao, I will fight you to the death."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Shaochuan out of the way.
Lu Sui pulled Jiang Yueyao away and got on the carriage parked nearby.
The carriage drove away from its original location and headed in one direction.
Shen Baoqing stamped his feet anxiously: "Where are they going?"
Bai Shaochuan held his still numb arm, his face displeased, pursed his lips, and watched the carriage going away without saying a word.
----
There was a stove burning in the spacious carriage, and it was very warm.
The two got on the carriage, and Jiang Yueyao's wrist was still in Lu Sui's hand.
He gripped her wrist tightly and forced her to sit down next to him.
After Jiang Yueyao sat down, she saw that he still had no intention of letting go, and she became more and more angry, struggling hard: "Let me go!"
She tried her best to free her hand, but perhaps because he was afraid of hurting her, Lu Sui finally let go.
Jiang Yueyao finally got out of the grasp and immediately moved to the side the moment she was free.
Lu Sui's face turned cold as he saw her eagerness to get away from him.
But he said nothing until the carriage stopped.
The carriage stopped in front of a teahouse. Lu Sui lifted the curtain and got off the carriage first, then stood aside and waited.
Jiang Yueyao knew she couldn't escape, so she got out of the carriage with a cold face, ignored Lu Sui's big hand that was stretched out to help her get out of the carriage, jumped off the carriage, and walked straight into the teahouse.
Qingshu led the way in front.
Seeing that she had a stern face and didn't say a word, I knew that the girl must be very angry with me.
Then he laughed out loud.
"No wonder I felt you were extraordinary the first time I saw you. It turns out you're General Shen's lost daughter. You're truly a blessed person."
Nowadays, not many people know that Jiang Yueyao is Shen Baoqi.
Apart from the Bai family, I guess it would be Lu Sui.
As for how he knew it, Jiang Yueyao was too lazy to explore.
The reason I followed him here today was that I didn't want to get entangled with him anymore.
That’s all I have to say!
Get out of here!
Break up!
See you never again!
Jiang Yueyao knew that Qingshu wanted to ease the cooling relationship between them.
If it were normal times, she would definitely respond a little or two. After all, what the master did had nothing to do with them, the servants.
But Lu Sui's actions just now made her very angry.
When the city gate catches fire, everyone in the pond will suffer.
Qingshu became that small fish in the pond.
Seeing that the girl who always liked to joke was now following him upstairs with a stern face and without saying a word, Qingshu was not discouraged.
He smiled more and more attentively.
"Don't be angry, young lady. After the master was released from the imperial prison, he stayed in the palace until late last night."
"Even so, he still remembered your birthday. He personally drew the pattern and asked the skilled craftsman hired by Shopkeeper Zhao..."
"Qingshu." Jiang Yueyao suddenly interrupted him. Her usually soft voice was now cold. "You don't have to tell me what he did. I'm not interested."
Qingshu turned around awkwardly, glanced at his master who was three steps away, and shut up obediently.
A private room on the second floor facing the street.
Jiang Yueyao sat opposite Lu Sui.
The refreshments were served quickly and Qingshu quickly retreated.
The moment the door closed, Jiang Yueyao spoke.
She raised her eyes and looked at Lu Sui: "Master Lu, please speak if you have anything to say. I have something else to do later."
At this point, Lu Sui was no longer in a hurry.
He rinsed the teacup slowly and methodically.
Hearing this, he looked up at her.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Are you in such a hurry to leave right after we sat down?"
His voice was calm, neither anxious nor impatient.
Jiang Yueyao suddenly felt ridiculous.
"It's been quite a while." She lowered her eyebrows slightly, a mocking smile on her lips. "Since it's been a long time since we last met, do you still think it's necessary to meet again, Lord Lu?"
Lu Sui paused what he was doing. He didn't rush to reply to her, but poured a cup of brewed tea and gently placed it in front of her.
Jiang Yueyao turned her face away without even looking at him. Her little face was tense and it was obvious that she didn't want to drink his tea.
Lu Sui looked at her and suddenly sighed.
"The situation at the time forced me to do this. I was seriously injured and hadn't recovered yet. The Fourth Prince and the Third Prince's men were targeting you at the same time. I had no choice but to resort to this last resort..."
Jiang Yueyao suddenly interrupted him.
She turned around and said, "I don't want to hear about how you were helpless back then!"
She took a deep breath and continued, "Yes, you are indeed forced to do what you want, and it sounds like it's all for my own good, but Lu Sui, I'm not grateful."
"Without a single explanation, without even a word of hello... the owner of Wanhe Tower has been replaced!"
"You sent me to the Grand Tutor's Mansion, but you never said a word to me, yet you still have such wishful thinking. I will still wait for you right here."
She ignored his cold expression and continued.
"In fact, in your heart, I am just a kitten that you raise. When you like me, you want to hold me in your arms and pamper me all day long."
“If one day you feel tired and annoyed, just kick it away.”
"But Lu Sui, I'm a human, not a cat. If I leave, I'll leave. I won't look back!"
