Chapter 18: The Uninvited Guest
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Mingting's mouth, but he didn't answer. What if he has the ability to never forget, he is not controlled by others.
"Big brother, do you think that the eagle falcon whistle seal has mixed into Youzhou, has there been a big change?"
Lu Mingshuang knew that his brother was very clear about these things, so Tete asked this. At the same time, I also hope that my brother can cheer up and not be arrogant.
"It's not a big change, it's just that the defense of Youzhou City is indeed too weak." Lu Mingting's expression was solemn, and a river of mountains and rivers frowned between his eyebrows, as if he was worried about the situation in Youzhou City.
"Well, I see, I'll arrange for them to defend it tightly in a while, and I will never let the Eagle Falcon Sentry Mark take advantage of it again."
Lu Mingshuang saw that his brother was right, and he couldn't help but start worrying. She knows Wuhuan too well, is indifferent and bloodthirsty, and vows not to give up until she achieves her goal.
Lu Mingting nodded, and then fell into deep thought.
At this moment, a small servant walked in quickly.
"Childe, county lord, there is... There are guests who ask to meet. ”
The little guy probably came running, and his tone was a little nervous and unsmooth.
Lu Mingting and Lu Mingshuang glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts and incomprehension in each other's eyes.
"Do you have a name on the call?" Lu Mingshuang pursed her lips slightly and opened her mouth to ask.
"That girl said she was the young lady of the state pastor next door, named Chu Xin."
"Is that her?" Lu Mingshuang couldn't help frowning, secretly wondering if he had come to take revenge for the events of that day?
Thinking of this, Lu Mingshuang's unsightly face became even more ugly: "Big brother, you go back to rest first, and I'll meet her." ”
Lu Mingshuang didn't want her eldest brother to be embarrassed together, if Chu Xin really said something ugly, or something out of line, she could deal with her.
"No, I'll go with you."
Lu Mingting shook his head firmly, he knew that his sister was worried about him. But he is an elder brother, how can he let his sister stand in front of him.
Seeing the resolute attitude of the eldest brother, Lu Mingshuang had no choice but to nod. Anyway, with her, Chu Xin didn't dare to do anything about her.
The two of them walked down the hall.
"Brother Lu, are you in serious health?"
As soon as Lu Mingting and Lu Mingshuang entered the hall, a little girl in pink had already come over, squeezed Lu Mingshuang away by the way, and stood in front of Lu Mingting in front of him.
Chu Xin only looked at Lu Mingting, whose face was pale from illness, with eyes full of tenderness.
Lu Mingting's face was expressionless, and he took a step back quietly, opening up a little close distance from Chu Xin: "It's no big deal, I'm worried about Miss Chu." ”
"That's good, since the last goodbye, I'm worried about Brother Lu's body." Chu Xin didn't notice Lu Mingting's frowning and displeasure, and still greeted Lu Mingting very warmly.
Seeing this scene, Lu Mingshuang frowned dumbly, what's going on? Didn't you say that the good ones should come to find faults?
It's not like it's a way to find fault.
However, Lu Mingshuang was not stupid enough to ask directly, but stood quietly to the side and observed Chu Xin's every move.
"Brother Lu, this is the hundred-year-old ginseng I brought to you, which is counted as a thank you gift to Brother Lu last time." Chu Xin happily took the gift box from her little servant's hand and wanted to hand it to Lu Mingting.
"Miss Chu doesn't have to be polite, last time it was the sister's fault first, and it was just a gesture to give you away, so I really can't afford Miss Chu's gift."
Lu Mingting's tone was cold, without his words, the little guy who was waiting next to him didn't dare to step forward to take the gift box.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was a little condensed.
"Childe, county lord." Shen Yu, who hurried after hearing the news, broke the embarrassing situation just right.
"Captain Shen doesn't have to be polite."
Lu Mingting personally stretched out his hand to help Shen Yu, and the meaning was self-evident. He didn't want to accept Chu Xin's so-called thank you, but unfortunately, Chu Xin didn't understand.
Shen Yu saw the salute, and saw Lu Mingshuang standing aside in a good manner, and then let go of his heart.
He strode to Lu Mingshuang's side, leaving the space to Lu Mingting and Chu Xin.
"County Lord, what's going on?" Shen Yu asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Lu Mingshuang shook her head in confusion, indicating that she didn't know what this Chu Xin was going to do.
"Do you want to arrest her first?" Shen Yu gestured to Lu Mingshuang with his eyes, and at the same time made a binding action.
Lu Mingshuang still shook his head, his empty eyes contained cold edges, and he said in a low voice: "Let's take a look first." ”
At this time, Chu Xin was still holding the thank you gift she said in her mouth, but the indifference on Lu Mingting's face had already indicated that he would not accept this expensive gift.
The two were at a stalemate for a while.
"Brother Lu, do you think that my Chu Xin's safety is not even worth this ginseng strain?" Chu Xin's face has been cultivated, and he is now like this, and he can still joke with a smile.
Lu Mingting is a wooden, although he shook his head, the expression on his face has never changed.
Isn't this a deliberate attempt to embarrass other girls?
"Why did Miss Chu say this, she really can't afford to be such a heavy thank you gift from Miss Chu." Lu Mingting repeatedly refused.
"Yes, Miss Chu, I was at fault last time, and this thank you gift is really too valuable."
Although Lu Mingshuang still didn't know why Chu Xin wanted to thank her eldest brother, it can be seen that the eldest brother seriously rejected other girls, and she could guess some of them.
This Chu girl is probably interested in her eldest brother. But her eldest brother is too serious.
"Hmph, that's a thank you gift from me to your brother, how much does it have to do with you." When Chu Xin saw Lu Mingshuang answer, his whole face began to become vivid, and the arrogance on his face seemed to not take Lu Mingshuang in his eyes at all.
Although Chu Xin's words were not very good, there was really no malice. In addition, it was indeed Lu Mingshuang's fault last time, so Lu Mingshuang ignored the disrespect in Chu Xin's tone.
"That Mingshuang is here to apologize for Miss Chu for the last time, thank you Miss Chu for her grace." Lu Mingshuang's attitude was sincere.
Chu Xin was stunned for a while, her face turned red, and her face showed a little embarrassment.
However, she has always been proud, even if she has accepted Lu Mingshuang's apology in her heart, she is still unforgiving: "You tied me up and threatened my father, of course I have to accept this apology." ”
When Lu Mingshuang heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle.
It turns out that this famous Miss Chu is still a delicate little girl.
"Mingshuang."
When Lu Mingting saw his sister like this, there was less indifference on his face, and he was a little more worried.
His sister has always been arrogant, how could she have suffered such a grievance. There has always been only someone else to apologize to her, where is she to apologize to others?
Who knew that Lu Mingshuang was not annoyed, but had a light smile on his face.
Lu Mingting realized that his sister seemed to be a little different, and he couldn't say what was the difference.
