Lu Hetian ignored Aunt Zheng and led Lu Liangwei to the palace gates.
"Brother Lu!"
At that moment, a hearty voice rang out from not far away.
Lu Hetian frowned, but nevertheless stopped in his tracks and glanced in that direction. "Brother Ji!"
Lu Liangwei had also stopped and followed his line of sight to see a man of similar age to him.
The person was very dignified-looking but seemed a bit gentler and meeker compared to Lu Hetian. A young girl was trailing behind him.
Seeing Lu Liangwei, the girl humphed and turned her head away in disdain.
Her exclamation was rather loud and was not only heard by Lu Liangwei but also by Lu Hetian and Duke Ji.
Duke Ji looked a little embarrassed but did not reprimand the girl and simply nodded to Lu Liangwei. "Second Miss Lu is here too?"
