When Qi Xiang heard how Chen Xuyao addressed Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao, his legs turned to jelly.
Xingzhi, Jiang Yao? Did that mean... Jiang Yao was Lu Xingzhi's wife!?
Qi Xiang almost wanted to strangle himself to death. Among the Young Masters of Jin Town, the last person you would want to offend would be Liang Yueze or Lu Xingzhi. Both of them were well-known to be ruthless, bad-tempered, and protective of their loved ones, and yet, he had initially been planning to put his hands on Young Master Lu's wife!
"Young Master Lu, it was all my fault the other day, I..." Qi Xiang quickly tried to explain himself. However, before he could apologize, it was cut off by Lu Xingzhi's icy glare.
Lu Xingzhi locked the door of the room. He squinted at the three members of the Qi family who were blocking his and Jiang Yao's way without saying a word. With just a glance, the three of them quickly cleared the path.
"I thought you said you were hungry. Let's eat," Lu Xingzhi said to Chen Xuyao who was standing beside him impatiently. Without waiting for Chen Xuyao, he walked away while holding Jiang Yao's hand.
Chen Xuyao glanced at the Qis and quickly scurried toward Lu Xingzhi without saying a word. He did not ask Lu Xingzhi about how he was going to handle the Qis, but instead, asked about what they were going to eat for lunch.
Chen Xuyao was all too aware of Lu Xingzhi's temper. If he mentioned the Qi family, he would only add fuel to the fire. Since he did not bother about the Qis, they should endure it themselves. They should stand there waiting until Lu Xingzhi and the others came back to the hotel.
The restaurant they were going to for lunch was picked by Lu Xingzhi. Before sending Jiang Yao to university, Lu Xingzhi had done some research on the specialties of Nanjiang City, therefore, he found a peaceful restaurant with a relaxed ambiance easily.
