Song Yuxi took a deep breath: "Husband, actually my father was one of the Eight Pillars of the Great Yu Dynasty, and a former Grand General!"
Lu Tu listened with a calm expression, showing no emotional fluctuation.
Song Yuxi asked curiously, "Husband, why aren't you afraid?"
Lu Tu looked at her quietly: "Why are you afraid?"
