Chapter 455 - Keeping One’s Pants On (2/2)
In fact…
The expression in his eyes flickered. He had only found out later that the Lu Family had sent him over to please Zhao Hong.
He had looked for him once in the past. If he’d been willing, he would have asked Zhao Hong to let him go. After all, Zhao Hong had to give him face.
At the time, no one had known what he was thinking, but he had rejected his suggestion and chosen to stay by Zhao Hong’s side.
Only now did he know that this brat had unknowingly joined forces with that scumbag Third Master Jun to kill Zhao Hong in one fell swoop and had stayed by her side to collect evidence.
As a result of collecting evidence, he had nearly lost his life.
Ling Sheng had long thought that Lu Xianzhi’s surname was Lu, so he had to be a member of the Lu Family. On the way there, she had let her imagination run wild. She had even thought of him as Fifth Uncle’s son.
Lu Yubai looked at her eyes and frowned. “Don’t tell me you thought he’s my son. How old am I? How can I have such an old son?”
Ling Sheng was very serious. “My father is not that old either!”
“Can he compare to me? I keep my trousers on!” Lu Yubai let out a snort and asked her, “Have you prayed and gotten a divination lot for me?”
“Sister Su Yi got it for you. Here’s the lot’s text.” Ling Sheng pushed the lot into his hands and took out a red string. On the red string was a pomegranate. “Also, Sister Su Yi asked the abbot for a blessing. She said it can bring you romantic luck.”
Lu Yubai suddenly thought of the girl he had seen during the day. He thought to himself that she was quite considerate. “Why did she do everything?”
Ling Sheng tried to please him. “Does it make a difference? Sister Su Yi and I don’t make distinctions between us.”
Lu Yubai usually did not take a liking to such things. However, since this was a sincere request and she had even sought the blessing of the abbot, he felt that it was not bad after wearing it.
