Next Time

Wu Shu approached Jiang Lu with a limp, speaking in a grievance-filled voice, "Brother Jiang Lu, why did you come so late? You didn't see how I was almost bullied just now."

Jiang Lu slightly sidestepped, avoiding Wu Shu's approaching figure.

"Since there's nothing more to do here, you guys go ahead to Dongxing Pavilion. Haozi has reserved a private room, go there and rest first," Jiang Lu said. Then, he gestured towards a woman in a plain shirt, "Jiang Tong, take good care of Wu Shu, don't let her get hurt again."

Jiang Tong immediately understood Jiang Lu's intention, "Brother, don't worry, we'll go to Dongxing Pavilion and wait for you."

Jiang Lu nodded in satisfaction, didn't look at Wu Shu again, and chased after Xia Wan who had left.

Wu Shu called out twice but couldn't get Jiang Lu to return. She stomped her foot in anger, "Why is Brother Jiang Lu chasing after that woman?"
