Chapter 230: It's just a pawn

Chapter 230 is just a pawn

Lu Jing laughed a little self-deprecatingly.

She said sadly: "If I am lucky enough to become the only living child of the Xun family."

"If someone wants to use my Xun family to create momentum in the future."

"Is it more appealing to be a daughter of the Xun family, or a son of the Xun family to encourage people to follow?"

Xun Huan suddenly realized.

He felt very uncomfortable.

If their Xun family is doing well, why does sister bear the humiliation so much?

"Does Uncle Lu know that you are a daughter?" Xun Huan asked.

"He knows." Lu Jing said softly.

It was precisely because of this that she was a little more wary of Lu Da.

She had no doubt that it was her elder brother Xun Qing that Lu Da wanted to save when he came to Japan.

Unfortunately, brother's injury was too serious to recover, so Lu Da decided to save her by doing the next best thing.

Even if she didn't take the initiative to ask her to disguise herself as a man, I'm afraid Lu Da will find a reason for her to pretend to be her elder brother Xun Qing to live.

"It's also thanks to my elder brother and I being young at the time." Lu Jing said with a bit of sarcasm.

"If we wait another year or two and the gap between men and women becomes apparent, brother must be much taller than me. How can I pretend to be him so easily?"

"Sister..." Xun Huan felt extremely uncomfortable.

They lost their parents when they were young, so they became pawns of others.

If Dad knew, even if they survived by luck, they were taken advantage of because of the identity of the Xun family, how would they feel?

"Fortunately, we've all grown up." Lu Jingrou said, "In the past, I couldn't control everything. Now, I can slowly control some things."

"Hmm..." Xun Huan's heart choked with sobs, and his eye sockets became moist again.

Lu Jing looked tenderly at his younger brother who had been away for many years, and said with a chuckle, "A Huan, you are really crazy to assassinate the Bai family this time."

Xun Huan's cheeks were slightly flushed, and he did not answer with downcast eyes.

"For powerful people like the Pei family, they can be crazy. But for people without foundation like us, if they go crazy, they may have no way out."

Lu Jing smiled helplessly, "Do you know that although you gave Bai Situ two deadly swords this time, he still didn't die?"

Xun Huan was taken aback, and said angrily and surprised: "He is not dead? How is this possible?"

Lu Jing said with a smile: "Bai Situ has eaten so well these years, he was raised by humans."

"Although you pierced his stomach with a sword, he escaped by luck."

"The worst thing is the sword you stabbed in his chest."

"I heard from the doctor that if someone else got hit by that sword, he would have died."

"But Bai Situ is really too fat. That sword should have pierced his heart directly, but who would have thought that it pierced into the flesh."

Lu Jing shook his head, and said between laughing and laughing: "You have to push that sword a little further to pierce his heart."

After hearing this explanation, Xun Huan was so angry that one Buddha went out of his body, and the other two ascended to heaven. He cursed angrily: "Bai Zonghai, that fat pig!"

Bai Zonghai is the name of the Patriarch of the Bai family who is now honored as Lord Situ.

Lu Jing couldn't help laughing, and comforted him: "However, A Huan, you didn't get nothing this time."

"The old lady of the Bai family was so frightened that she kicked her legs on the night of the birthday party and died."

"Bai Zonghai is a dutiful son. When he heard that his old mother died on the day of his 70th birthday, he cried earth-shatteringly."

"He was seriously injured again. Under the great grief and pain, he passed out directly and almost couldn't be saved."

Xun Huan heard this, and said bitterly: "Why didn't this dead fat pig just die? Why is his life so bad?"

Lu Jing was amused by his younger brother.

She said quietly: "It may not be a bad thing for Bai Zonghai to live. Wouldn't it be more enjoyable for him to watch the Bai family's destruction step by step than being assassinated?"

Xun Huan suddenly understood, and said deeply, "Sister is right."

The siblings chatted about their experiences over the years.

Xun Huan listened for a while, feeling a little weird, and asked, "Sister, do you like Second Master Pei?"

Lu Jing was slightly taken aback, shook his head and said with a smile: "Where would I dare to be tempted by Second Master?"

"I want to make friends with the second master, but it is because of the two sons in charge of the Pei family, he is impulsive and simple."

"If I have a good relationship with the uncle, in the future, if I encounter any extremely difficult things, the uncle may only express regret verbally, but he may not necessarily help me."

"But if I have a good relationship with the second master, no matter how difficult things I encounter, the second master will definitely help me."

"Furthermore, the Pei family has always had a bad relationship with the Bai family. I stay in the Pei family's barracks to handle errands and wait for the opportunity. It should be much easier to get revenge."

Xun Huan glanced at his elder sister, and said with a smile: "As expected of my elder sister, Xun Huan, who knows how to talk nonsense in a serious manner."

"There are so many great nobles in Kyoto who have feuds with the Bai family, and my sister chose the most handsome Second Master Pei. This is really a good intention."

Hearing his younger brother teasing him like this, Lu Jing immediately blushed.

She wanted to hit her younger brother but because he was injured, she had no choice but to withdraw her hand angrily and said: "The big revenge has not been avenged, how dare I talk about other things?"

"Yes, sister dare not talk about her children's affair, but deliberately let Erye Pei catch you to read the romantic book again and again."

Xun Huan teased with a cheap smile, "Even if you can't talk about feelings, it's better than the addiction of flirting with handsome men."

Lu Jing was stunned, and blushed and said angrily: "It's not big or small! Is there anyone talking to my sister like that?"

Xun Huan stuck out his tongue, but finally showed a bit of childishness.

"You're still making funny faces at how old you are." Lu Jing said with distaste but joy on his face.

Since her younger brother teased her like this, she naturally wants to find some ground.

Lu Jing smirked and teased: "Are you...are you interested in Mr. Pei?"

"Yes." Xun Huan blushed and responded.

Lu Jing was a bit taken aback, he didn't expect his younger brother to admit it so directly.

Xun Huan looked at his sister cautiously, and said with a bit of entanglement and fear: "Sister, I am the only male in the Xun family. If I... just want to stay with the third master for life..."

Before Xun Huan could finish speaking, Lu Jing understood what his brother had said.

"It's okay." Lu Jing gently patted his younger brother's head, and said softly, "Compared to spreading branches and leaves for the Xun family, my father and mother must want to see you happy."

What's more, after the catastrophe, she finally found out that her only brother was still alive, so how could she dare to criticize him?

Even though she couldn't accept Long Yang's kindness in her heart, as long as her younger brother really liked her, then she, as an older sister, would be willing to bless her.

"Thank you, sister." Xun Huan's voice was a little choked, and his heart was warm.

Seeing that his younger brother was about to cry, Lu Jing jokingly said, "They are both eighteen-year-old adults, so don't cry like a child."
