Lu Xingzhi had drunk a little too much that night and was a little intoxicated. Since he had to pretend that he could not hold his liquor, he let Ah Zhu support him.
"Sister, I'm sorry. We were chatting happily and accidentally drank too much. Hurry up and take care of your man. I'll go back to my room first." Ah Zhu helped Gu Changshu to the bed before he turned around and explained to Gu Junhui.
Jiang Yao heard Ah Zhu's footsteps as he went downstairs. She called for the servant to bring honey water for Gu Changshu before she went back to her room.
"Stop pretending."
Jiang Yao pushed the man on the bed. She had not even settled the score with him for being a womanizer.
The man on the bed turned over and smiled. Then, he quickly pulled the woman bending over him into his arms.
"Do you know who I saw tonight?" Lu Xingzhi's voice contained a hint of a smile. He was not really going to let Jiang Yao guess, so he spoke first. "Brother Jing arrived in Shu City yesterday, but Brother Ding did not know that."
So he was drinking with Brother Jing?
"Is Ah Zhu with Brother Jing?"
Jiang Yao was dumbfounded. "Ah Zhu is Brother Jing's spy?"
"Ah Zhu was part of Brother Ding's team initially, and then he decided to follow Brother Jing instead. My wife, I remember telling you that Ah Zhu is an ambitious man. He wants to replace Brother Ding." Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao's tiny face. "Are you surprised?"
For that ambition, Ah Zhu decided to join Brother Jing.
"We need to deal with Ah Zhu carefully."
Lu Xingzhi touched the back of Jiang Yao's head. His palm was filled with her soft hair and her scent. "Ah Zhu has been by Brother Ding's side for a few years. First, he gained Brother Ding's favor and trust. Later, he climbed up the ladder alongside Brother Jing. Brother Ding still doesn't know anything and is talking to Ah Zhu about how to pull Brother Jing down."
Ah Zhu would report Brother Ding's plans to Brother Jing; no one could imagine Brother Ding's fate.
"Today, Ah Zhu took you to see Brother Jing. Does he want you to follow Brother Jing like him?" Jiang Yao felt that Ah Zhu was really ruthless when dealing with Brother Ding.
