"Qin Xi!" Lu Huai shouted her name loudly from outside the carriage, attracting a crowd of onlookers.
"Qin Xi! How come you forgot to bring anything when you went back to your parents' home? You should at least have brought me with you!"
Many people were amused by him and began to discuss how Lu Huai's status at home was not high.
Qin Xi felt extremely embarrassed. If she didn't call him in, he would probably keep shouting outside. She had no choice but to have Bao Bao call him in.
“Young master, my young lady wants you to come in,” Bao Bao said, lifting the curtain and giving him a disapproving look.
"Alright!" Lu Huai quickly dismounted and got into the carriage.
The original coachman went to ride a horse, and Lele and Baobao got out of the carriage and drove the horse-drawn carriage.
“Qin Xi,” Lu Huai sat down next to Qin Xi, looking at her with an innocent expression.
Qin Xi ignored him.
"Qin Xi," Lu Huai called her again, "Qin Xi, I was wrong."
Qin Xi lowered her head, feeling inexplicably wronged. She bit her lower lip, not wanting to show weakness to him.
“Qin Xi,” Lu Huai grasped her shoulders, forcing her to face him, but seeing her haggard face, he was speechless.
“Qin Xi…” Lu Huai looked at Qin Xi at a loss, feeling that something was wrong with him.
"I was wrong, Qin Xi."
"What are you doing here?" Qin Xi sniffed, feeling a bit congested.
“I’m sorry, Qin Xi,” Lu Huai looked at her, “I was wrong.”
"I don't blame you," Qin Xi said indifferently.
Seeing her like this, Lu Huai was at a loss for what to do. He frowned and kept saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"What did you do wrong? How can I accept your apology?" Qin Xi turned her face to the side, unwilling to look at him.
"I shouldn't have gone to Chunfeng Tower with that scoundrel Shuzhan and made you angry."
"Why shouldn't it be? Isn't this your freedom, Second Young Master Lu?" Qin Xi glanced at Lu Huai sideways.
"Because I made a three-point agreement with you. A promise is a promise. I broke my word."
"So you still remember this," Qin Xi sneered.
"I'm wrong, I'm guilty, I'm just a little turtle," Lu Huai blinked, looking at Qin Xi with an innocent expression.
"Pfft," Qin Xi was amused by him and couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing this, Lu Huai finally felt relieved.
“This is the last time,” Lu Huai said to Lele and Bao Bao, who were driving outside, “Go back to the Minister’s residence.”
Qin Xi neither spoke nor refused.
Lu Huai kept talking badly about Shu Zhan to Qin Xi the whole way, and Shu Zhan sneezed several times in a row, while Qin Xi just responded with a few words.
After returning to the Minister's residence, Lu Huai voluntarily went to Minister Lu to receive the family discipline. The family discipline in the Minister's residence consisted of fifty strokes of a ruler with great force.
Minister Lu had expected Qin Qi to plead for Lu Huai, but Qin Qi simply said, "He deserved it," and stood calmly to the side. Minister Lu nodded approvingly, as if Qin Qi were not his own son.
Lu Huai's lips twitched.
He knelt in the ancestral hall, and Minister Lu personally held a ruler, striking him again and again. He felt that the family discipline today seemed to be particularly forceful.
The next day.
Lu Huai was still lying on the bed, unable to move after being punished with a ruler. When Shu Zhan heard about the quarrel between the two, he rushed over to find Lu Huai, but was stopped by the guards at the door.
"The second young master said you are not allowed to enter," the guard told him.
"Huh? I'm his best brother, how could that be?" Shu Zhan pointed to himself, thinking he was joking.
“Yes, that’s right, it’s you,” the guard nodded, took a step to the side, revealing crooked words on the wall behind him: ‘No entry for Shuzhan and dogs. —Lu Huai’s handwriting.’
Stretch: ?
"Then I won't go in. Go and ask him if he's going to Chunfeng Tower today," Shu Zhan said, waving his hand.
"The second young master said it a long time ago, 'Prostitutes? Gone.'"
stretch: ??
"Is he going for drinks or not?"
"This young master has already said that he has given it up."
stretch: ???
"Fine, Lu Changjue, you win," Shu Zhan said, pointing at the calligraphy before turning and leaving.
