Chapter 841: Can't Go Be a Bandit Too, Right?
"Hehe, would an elephant notice the provocation of an ant? If you want the Wolf King to retaliate, you're not qualified enough!"
"I think some people should keep their tails between their legs and not be too arrogant. You're just a young master of the Du family. There are plenty of nephews and cousins of the same generation in the Du family. One more of you isn't much, and one less isn't much."
"Even the head of the Zhou family has to be polite when meeting the Wolf King. How much face do you have to dare to be presumptuous in front of him?"
Most of the passersby looked down on Young Master Du's usual arrogance and domineering. Although everyone was only considered middle-class and couldn't reach the upper society, Young Master Du felt he was a cut above others because the Du family had money, and he often mocked others.
Now that they saw Young Master Du had offended the Wolf King, most of them were gloating.
On the other side, the Lu family bodyguards had led Xu Tian, the Thorn Emperor, and others into the Lu family manor.
"Ding Yi, do you have any time to come to my house recently?" Yue Moli walked beside Xu Tian and asked in a gentle tone.
"Yes, I'll go back with you next time." Xu Tian glanced at the Thorn Emperor beside him and deliberately responded.
"Then I'll call you when the time comes," Yue Moli's smile became even gentler, "It's also good to let the chef at home prepare the dishes you like in advance."
The Thorn Emperor paused, and her cold-as-ice gaze also looked at Yue Moli quietly.
Her reaction was captured by Xu Tian. He curled his lips and raised the corners of his mouth. He really wanted to see how long this woman could endure.
If the Thorn Emperor alone with him was like an iron plate with no flaws, as long as Yue Moli was present, her emotions were very easily affected.
In the blink of an eye, they had walked in the Lu family courtyard for nearly ten minutes, but still hadn't seen the main house.
Now Xu Tian finally understood why the Lu family bodyguard didn't let him walk around casually just now. He originally thought it was the arrogance of the Lu family, but now it seems their worry was absolutely not redundant. Coming here for the first time, if there is no one to lead, it would be strange not to get lost.
He had been to the Yun family before. The Yun family manor, as one of the three great families, was also very large, but compared to the richest Lu family, it was the difference between a small park and a theme amusement park.
"Queen Yue, it is the honor of our
Lu family that you can come!" When they reached the door of the main house, a middle-aged man with a full face of smiles walked out from inside.
"The Lu family head is too polite," Yue Moli smiled faintly and greeted the other party calmly.
"I didn't expect the Thorn Emperor to come too..." The Lu family head's gaze fell on the Thorn Emperor, a bit flattered, "It's been four or five years since we last met. Is the Emperor well?"
"Everything is fine," Tang Bingyan nodded slightly.
Don't look at the Lu family being inferior to other noble families and gangs in martial arts, but as the richest family on Wuji Island, the Lu family controls the economic lifeline here, so others will give the Lu family some face.
And the Lu family head didn't have that kind of high-and-mighty superiority. As the head of the family, being able to greet guests at the door in person at his daughter's single banquet made Xu Tian a bit surprised.
"By the way, I have important matters to discuss with the Queen and the Emperor, and I have prepared greeting gifts for you. You come with me first," the Lu family head said, intending to lead Yue Moli and Tang Bingyan into the main house.
Yue Moli looked back at Xu Tian and was about to speak, but saw Xu Tian shake his head.
"You go in first."
"Then I'll come find you later."
Yue Moli smiled sweetly at Xu Tian and turned to follow the Lu family head into the main house.
Xu Tian stood at the door, his gaze falling on the Thorn Emperor. Just when Yue Moli was talking to him, this woman's footsteps paused for a moment.
Although it was only for a few seconds, it was still captured by him.
"Sir, please show me your invitation." A bodyguard at the door walked toward Xu Tian.
Xu Tian took out the invitation and handed it over.
Just as the bodyguard took the invitation and opened it to look, the second young lady of the Lu family walked out of the main house.
"Handsome, you're here!"
Seeing Xu Tian, her eyes lit up, and she immediately walked up and affectionately took his arm.
"I've been waiting for you. If you didn't come, my single banquet would be dull and have no fun at all."
Today, the second young lady Lu was wearing a red off-the-shoulder dress and a pair of silver diamond high heels on her feet. The heels were still seven or eight centimeters, but standing in front of Xu Tian, she still looked very petite.
【Bird-like and dependent.】
Xu Tian's mouth twitched. Whether he came to the second young lady Lu's single banquet or not didn't seem to matter much...
"This is a greeting gift for you, I prepared it specially for you, it's different from the others." The second young lady Lu didn't know where she conjured up an exquisite box and stuffed it into Xu Tian's hand without question.
"What is this?" Xu Tian wanted to return the box, but thinking that this was a party favor that every guest had, he opened the box casually.
When he saw what was in the box, he suddenly knew why Yun Shuying liked the second young lady Lu so much.
Inside the box was a diamond-encrusted watch, and it was a well-known brand in the Western Alliance. Any ordinary style would cost hundreds of thousands, and the limited edition would be no less than a million.
Xu Tian conservatively estimated that the diamond watch in his hand was worth at least a million.
He had only met the second young lady Lu three times, and once the other party didn't even know his identity. For a friendship that couldn't even be called an acquaintance, she directly gave a million-dollar watch. Is this second young lady of the Lu family a bit too wasteful?
However, the Lu family is the richest family after all, and the Lu family head dotes on this daughter extremely. How she wants to spend money is not for an outsider like him to point fingers at.
But he had no friendship with the Lu family, and directly accepting such a valuable thing from the other party made him worry about taking people's things and having a soft hand.
"You'd better take this gift back." Xu Tian pushed the box into the second young lady Lu's hand.
"Why, do you think it's too cheap?" The second young lady Lu was slightly stunned, then said with some annoyance, "If I had known, I would have chosen that gold watch. Or you wait for me, I'll make a call to the mall..."
"No, that's not what I meant." Xu Tian reached out to stop the second young lady Lu, "I just think..."
"Then you are not giving me face?" The second young lady Lu raised her eyebrows unhappily, "Everyone who arrives receives my gift, only you don't. Do you have an opinion about me?"
Xu Tian:...
Why is this girl's brain circuit so abnormal?
But since she wants to give it, he really doesn't need to be pretentious. In case the Azure Wolf Hall's accounts are in deficit in the future, at least he can exchange it for some money.
He couldn't go be a bandit like the Wolf King, right? ===== CHAPTER 842 =====
