The fourth prince stumbled and nearly fell after being pushed by him. Once he regained his balance, he saw that Qin Xi was being held captive by him and anxiously shouted to Lu Huai, "Let go of Sister Xi! You're hurting her!"
Lu Huai narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp and undisguised: "Your Highness need not trouble yourself with that. Mind your own business."
"Who are you?" the fourth prince asked.
Lu Huai snorted coldly and said, "Her husband is Lu Huai."
After saying that, he pulled Qin Xi away, leaving the Fourth Prince standing there dumbfounded.
Qin Xi was dragged along by Lu Huai for a while, and they only stopped when they reached the carriage.
Lu Huai released her and said expressionlessly, "Go up yourself."
Qin Xi rubbed her wrist, pouted, and said "Oh..." with an innocent look on her face, then slowly went upstairs.
Seeing her like this, Lu Huai became furious. He couldn't help but step forward, encircle her, and then carried her into the carriage in a princess carry before throwing her onto the seat.
"Ah..." Qin Xi exclaimed in surprise as he threw her. Although it was a throw, it didn't hurt at all, as if the force had been calculated precisely.
"Sit still, so no one can see you and laugh at you."
Qin Qi's eyes widened upon hearing this. Was Lu Huai actually afraid of being laughed at?
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Xi tugged at his sleeve and asked softly, "Lu Huai, why are you angry?"
Lu Huai glanced at her, and his heart suddenly softened.
"It's nothing. Just try to avoid contact with Zhao Xuanyang in the future. He's no good."
"Oh...I understand," Qin Qi nodded obediently.
Seeing her like this, Lu Huai couldn't stay angry anymore. He couldn't help but sit down next to her, take her delicate hand in his, and look at her reddened wrist: "Did I hurt you just now?"
Qin Qi's face flushed slightly, and she instinctively tried to pull away, but not forcefully: "No...no..."
Lu Huai sighed, blowing air onto her wrist while gently massaging it.
Qin Xi's face turned completely red.

When they arrived at the Minister's residence, Qin Xi's wrist no longer hurt, though it was still a little red. Lu Huai still carried her down.
After getting off the ground, Qin Xi said softly, "Thank you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Huai laughed, a very handsome laugh. Qin Xi's face flushed again.
"Laugh... what are you laughing at..." she stammered.
"It's nothing, you can go back first. I have something to do, I need to go see Shuzhan. Don't wait for me for dinner tonight."
"Oh... I see..." For some reason, Qin Xi suddenly felt a little disappointed.
“Okay, let’s go in quickly,” Lu Huai said.
Qin Xi nodded and walked inside, turning back to look at herself every step of the way.
Lu Huai smiled again and said to her, "You can't bear to part with me?"
Qin Xi's face turned red again, and she hurriedly ran inside without looking back.
Lu Huai is in a good mood now, and it's probably time to discuss this matter with his good brother.

Shu Mansion.
"Haa... Changjue, is there something you need?" Shu Zhan was just falling asleep when Lu Huai woke him up. He stretched and asked.
"The sun is high in the sky, why are you still sleeping? Can't you learn from me? I've already returned from the palace!"
Shu Zhan glanced at him speechlessly. He was only a little bit ahead of him, yet he was already showing off.
"Wake up, I have something important to tell you," Lu Huai said.
Shu Zhan laughed. This guy could actually do something serious? When have the two of them ever done anything serious together?
He was mischievous and naughty as a child, but now he enjoys eating, drinking, having fun, and even doing serious things.
"What is it? Tell me so I can have a good laugh," Shu Zhan said with great interest.
"I think... I have different feelings for Qin Xi," Lu Huai said, touching the spot where his heart was, looking somewhat lost.
