Crippled Again

It was dawn when Chu Li returned to the backyard of the Ren Public House. Lu Yurong was sitting in a gazebo reading a book with a calm demeanor, the lamps were brightly lit and her maids in waiting had left. 

Lu Yushu was pacing about outside the gazebo, full of anxiousness and insecurity. 

After a few rounds, he stopped to enquire, "Little sis, that person with the surname Chu can be trusted, yeah?"

Lu Yurong's eyes peered from above her book but her gaze quickly returned to her reading material. She ignored him. 

Lu Yushu came to the gazebo and sat down. He picked up a cup and gulped down its contents. "If he holds a grudge and takes it out on Young Yu, I..."

"What would he do?" asked Lu Yurong. 

"Would he hand Young Yu over to the other side?" Lu Yushu enquired.

Lu Yurong burst into laughter. "You think he's that kind of person?"
