Wen Xiaochuan's face suddenly turned pale when he heard Lu Jing's words.
Aunt Wen on the side was also very surprised. She was stunned for a while and then said, "Daxia Lu already has a family? Why has no one ever mentioned it in the martial arts world?"
"Oh, my wife is not a member of the world. She runs her own business. However, she is strong-willed and does not want to rely on my reputation. Therefore, few people know about our relationship." Lu Jing explained.
He was not completely lying. Although he had not formally paid a formal visit to Gu Caiwei, but adhering to the principle of being responsible for sleeping with Gu Caiwei, Lu Jing had indeed regarded Gu Caiwei as his wife, so I didn't blush at all when I said it.
However, Wen Xiaochuan on the other side felt uncomfortable after hearing his words.
She thought she had collected all the information related to Lu Jing, including the latter's preferences and tastes. In order to cater to Lu Jing's weird hobbies, she even went to learn some basic knowledge of farming. .
But he only missed the most crucial point and forgot to ask if Lu Jing was married.
We can't blame Wen Xiaochuan for being careless, because as Aunt Wen said, until today, no one in the entire martial arts world knew that Lu Jing had a family.
Wen Xiaochuan had never thought about the possibility of Lu Jing lying, but this would only irritate her even more, because Lu Jing would rather lie that he already had a wife than accept her love.
Thinking that Wen Xiaochuan could no longer bear such a blow, he stamped his feet, covered his face with his hands and ran out.
Even though Aunt Wen called her name from behind, she did not look back.
Lu Jing was very embarrassed, as if he had been caught bullying someone else's daughter in front of his mother.
It's not that he can't feel Wen Xiaochuan's feelings for him, it's just that he already has someone in his heart, and there's more than one.
Whether it was Xia Huai, who had a crush on each other from the beginning, or Gu Caiwei, who was later rescued by accident, or even Yan Yun, who had an unexpected kiss with him in Wujiang City, they all occupied a place in Lu Jing's heart. Lu Jing didn't know How many seats can I leave for Wen Xiaochuan?
Moreover, Mr. Lu himself has been unable to bear it anymore recently. He has deeply reflected on his bad behavior of repeatedly jumping between women. At the same time, he has also realized that he is too close to too many members of the opposite sex. If this continues, he will only It’s getting harder and harder to decide.
In fact, now he felt that there was a hint of Shura field around him. When the stingy emperor wanted to use his princess daughter to kill him, Lu Jing felt that there seemed to be a vague murderous intention on Xia Huai's side.
Brother Cheng from Heaven is a lesson learned from the past.
Although the "Marriage Law" can no longer control him, the hatchet can still be used!
In addition, no matter what others think, Lu Jing always thinks that he is a good man.
In his previous life, he was addicted to games and building the motherland, and may not have had much opportunity to show off, but deep down, he always believed that he was a very dedicated person.
For example, when he drinks Coca-Cola, he only drinks delicious ones. On rainy days, he only carries an umbrella without wearing a poncho. For example, every time he goes to the duck neck shop in front of his house to buy duck necks, he only wants them to be spiced and not spicy. of.
It can be deduced from this that he must be the kind of reliable boyfriend who makes all girls feel safe emotionally!
So even though he knew that Wen Xiaochuan might be hurt, Lu Jing still resolutely used his trump card, using the excuse that he already had a family to cut through the mess quickly and cut off all Wen Xiaochuan's hopes directly from the source.
For things like relationships, long-term pain is always worse than short-term pain.
Although Wen Xiaochuan may hate his ruthlessness now, it is better than sinking deeper and deeper into the situation, making it difficult to end the situation in the future, and causing a drama like meeting Lu Lang and mistaking his life.
Aunt Wen called Wen Xiaochuan a few more times. Seeing the latter running away, she finally stopped shouting. However, she did not blame Lu Jing for this. Instead, she apologized to the latter, "That kid Xiaochuan was a little rude this time." ”
"Ah, that's not true." Lu Jing said awkwardly.
"But please don't blame her, Master Lu. She has put a lot of thought into this matter. According to past practice, for the old lady's birthday, I will prepare a question for you.
"The person who answers correctly will get a big gift. What I originally prepared was a sword, a magical elixir that can cut through the marrow, 800 good horses and 5,000 altars of fine wine.
"But Xiaochuan wrote to me, asking me to increase the proportion of gold and silver when preparing gifts. She said, Mr. Lu, you are a little short of money recently, and she hopes that this competition can solve the troubles you have encountered recently, and she also begged I’m trying to be more biased towards you when setting the question this time.”
Lu Jing listened silently. He didn't expect Wen Xiaochuan to do so many things for him in private.
Aunt Wen sighed, "It's precisely because he was full of expectations that the child was so disappointed when he heard what you just said." Seeing that Lu Jing seemed to want to say something else, Aunt Wen waved her hand.
"You don't have to blame yourself for this, Mr. Lu. This is how relationships are in this world. The dedication and enthusiasm of one party may not always be able to get the response of the other party, but this dedication is meaningful after all. At least it can give an explanation to the future self. , I can continue to walk with my head held high, and I won’t regret it when I grow old.”
Perhaps because too many things had happened today, the look of tiredness on Aunt Wen's face became even stronger after she finished speaking.
After resting for a while, he continued, "No matter what, this time I want to thank you, Mr. Lu, for solving Hall Master Jiang's murder case and finding the murderer. According to the previous agreement, I will also give you a gift of thanks, Mr. Lu. I will ask the maid to deliver the gift list to your room."
I don't know if Aunt Wen's words also aroused some thoughts. Lu Jing was not as excited as he expected when he heard the thank you gift. He didn't even think about what the thank you gift would contain and how much it would be worth. That's it. He walked back to his residence silently.
He walked slowly along the way. Firstly, he estimated that he would not enter this village again after returning this time. He wanted to take a look at the scenery here before leaving. Secondly, he did not know whether to go back. On the way, especially how to face Wen Xiaochuan after returning to the academy.
Are you pretending that what happened in the wine cellar never happened and continue to be friends with Wen Xiaochuan? Or should we intentionally distance ourselves from each other?
Lu Jing didn't have an answer in his heart.
After he returned to his room, he washed his face and practiced sword-wielding for a while, when he heard a knock on the door.
Lu Jing opened the door and found a maid standing outside.
