Path Of The Lilies 260 You Must Be Tired Of Living 2

Lu Changqing turned around. "Return back to your quarters."

His father walked away again while Lu Wan stayed in his place. He only lifted his head after his father was already far enough. Pa.s.sing a glance towards his older brother, he headed back to his own quarters. The place was well maintained by the servants, so he didn't bother trying to make inquiries as he returned back to his room.

Lu Su sighed at his brother's att.i.tude, but he didn't say anything unnecessary. It was as if there were no words to describe the current situation at all.

The servants were looking at one another. "Do you think Master will punish Young Master Lu Wan?"

"Why would he punish him?"

"But Young Master Lu Wan left for so long without even giving any news."

"Well…" One of the servants looked in the direction where Lu Wan left. "He would be, at most grounded. Even if Master wants to punish him, he didn't usually do it so blatantly."

"But…"

"That's just how it is here."

The servants looked at one another. They felt that Lu Wan was actually quite enviable at times. Even when he did something wrong, Lu Changqing never seriously punish him. He was left to do whatever he wanted with only being locked in his training room for some time.

However, they also understood that it was not easy for Lu Wan to survive in this place.

"Stop talking, get back to your work," one of the higher ranked servants ordered.

"Yes, yes."

"Sorry."

From a distance away, Lu Su was watching the servants and shook his head. He could guess what kind of words would be coming out to the street as rumor. Heh, those people from the Imperial Family must be happy when they heard that Lu Wan was found.

He closed his eyes for a moment, hoping that nothing bad would happen.

At this time, Lu Wan had returned back to his residence. His room was left as it was. The servants only cleaned up the dust in this room.

'What should I do now?'

Lu Wan laid down on his bed as his mind spun hard. From the way Lu Su talked before, he knew that they would never let anyone with similar or bigger built than him get out of the city. Both Ye Jiao and Qi Huan were still smaller, but they had another reason why they couldn't be inspected completely:

They were both Eon Energy Master Rank 3.

If someone found out that there were two teenagers at the age of 11 and 13 years olds were already Eon Energy Master Rank 3, it would be a disaster. After all, he was sure that the one who would check the people who came out or in would be either Wei Shang or Lu Changqing.

Both of them were Eon Energy Master Rank 4, so it would be easy for them to find that out.

'If I stay here, they can get out but I can't. Maybe, I can just sneak out when it's already night time and tell them to do the mission without me? After that, I'll sneak out after they have finished.'

Lu Wan was still contemplating when a servant knocked on his door.

"Young Master, Young Miss Lu Zhi is here to see you."

"What does she want?"

"She wants to have a talk with you, Young Master."

Sitting on his bed, Lu Wan sighed. He walked to the door and opened it, revealing a small servant who was afraid of him. Ignoring that person, he walked out of his house and saw his sister sitting on his courtyard.

Lu Zhi was wearing a long brocade white dress. With her elegant posture and also beautiful face, it should be said that no men would be able to look away. Her rosy lips and charming eyes would be more than enough to enrapture them.

"It's rare to see you come and visit me, Lu Zhi," Lu Wan said emotionlessly.

Lu Zhi flashed a smile to her brother. It was so beautiful that one wouldn't be able to look away. Many servants were already entranced when they saw her graceful smile.

"Brother Lu Wan."

"What do you want?"

In contrast to the tender voice of the young girl, Lu Wan didn't pay any heed to her fake act. He had seen them numerous times in the past to the point that he got sick of it. Other people might fall for her because of her beautiful appearance and graceful action that made one feel like it was too bad if they couldn't touch her. But it was different with him.

He didn't have any interest in this little brat in front of him.

"I heard that Brother came back, so I decided to come and visit." Lu Zhi smiled. "It's almost the time for my marriage and I want to share this happy news to you."

"I see. Congratulations." Lu Wan's voice was still emotionless. He didn't want to care for this young girl at all.

Lu Zhi pursed her lips. "Why are you so cold, Brother Lu Wan? Aren't you happy for me?"

"I am happy. At least, it means that you won't come and bother me anymore," Lu Wan replied nonchalantly.

For a moment, Lu Zhi's eyes flashed with coldness. The word that Lu Wan uttered was only telling her that he didn't want her to be here. There was no longer any trace of care that Lu Wan used to show her every single day.

Lu Zhi pushed back the matter into her heart and picked up a bowl filled with soup that she placed on the table.

"Brother Lu Wan, how about a soup as a way to be friends again? I don't want to be in constant clash with you," Lu Zhi said while biting her lower lips, picturing her as the white lotus that has been bullied constantly. If one didn't know better, they might think that Lu Zhi has been wronged so horribly.

Even now, the servants were already glaring at Lu Wan secretly. If it was not for the fact that Lu Wan has an important place in this residence, they would surely dare to pick a fight directly. Unfortunately, they still treasured their lives, so they only did it secretly.

Lu Wan eyed the bowl that Lu Zhi held. With his keen sense, it was easy for him to detect that the soup had been tampered. The familiar smell of herbs and also their diversity entered his mind. He could easily name the herbs that were mixed into this bowl of soup even without the need to taste it.

He sneered internally.

'Trying to poison a poison master, you must be tired of living, Lu Zhi!'
