Chapter 1663 Childhood Friend and Ex-Fiancée (2)
"Then, Miss Shi can be considered loyal. It's Third Young Master Lu's bad luck that he didn't marry Miss Shi."
"Who would dare to marry someone who's so ferocious and even killed his clansmen wantonly?"
"That's right. In my opinion, the Lu family is already letting him off easily by only expelling him from the family clan."
"I heard that Brother Lu Yizhe is still in Hongtian Academy. Why would the academy still tolerate such a ferocious person, who is no different from a fiendish cultivator, to continue staying in the academy?"
"It seems that the Dean of the Martial Arts Department publicly protected the two of them."
"The Dean of the Martial Arts Department? No way! The Dean actually protected two demonic cultivators. Isn't he too unreasonable?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Is the Dean of the Martial Arts Department someone you can criticize? If this gets out, it'll be fine if you're unlucky, but don't implicate me."
"I… I was just talking too quickly. Besides, I didn't mean to blame the dean…"
Hearing what the people around said that was getting more and more unreasonable, Lu Zijia couldn't help feeling speechless.
People were just spreading the rumors, they simply didn't know what they were saying!
Sensing that something was wrong with Lu Yifeng, Xu Qi patted his shoulder and asked with a confused expression, "Senior Brother, are you alright?"
The Xu brothers had only been in Hongtian City for half a year, so they weren't too familiar about what happened between the Lu family and the Shi family. They had only heard about them.
Xu Qi had never seen the rumored twin brothers of the Lu family. Instead, Xu Xiu, who often went out for missions, had seen them before, but he had only seen them once.
At this moment, something was wrong with Lu Yifeng, clearly because of the discussions of the people around.
Xu Xiu raised his hand and pulled his brother to the side, warning him, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
Xu Qi, who was dragged to the side by his brother like a chick: "…"
When did he ask something he shouldn't have? He was clearly just concerned about this senior brother!
Her brother was really getting more and more unreasonable!
"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern, Junior Brother."
Lu Yifeng suppressed the hatred in her heart and forced a smile at Xu Qi. Then, she bade farewell and said, "I still have something on, so I won't send you off."
Even though Lu Zijia knew that Lu Yifeng and her were very likely siblings, before she found out what happened back then, she wouldn't expose her identity.
After all, she didn't know who was a real person and who was a real ghost in the Lu family.
"Senior Brother, go ahead. We can go back to the inn ourselves," Lu Zijia replied.
Lu Yifeng nodded at them and turned around to leave, but she was stopped by a gentle voice.
"Yifeng, it's been a long time."
Lu Yifeng clenched her fists. After taking a deep breath, she slowly turned around.
"Princess Consort Fan, why did you stop me?" Lu Yifeng looked at the gentle and beautiful woman in front of him and asked indifferently.
If he had a choice, Lu Yifeng would turn around and leave without hesitation.
However, he knew very well that if he left in front of everyone, there would definitely be rumors that were unfavorable to the two of them.
He had no choice but to feign civility with Shi Ningning, this hypocritical woman.
Shi Ningning smiled bitterly. "Yifeng, I don't mean anything else. I just want to say hello to you."
As she spoke, Shi Ningning's gaze landed on Lu Zijia and the others on the side and she asked, "Yifeng, are they your friends? I don't think I've seen these friends of yours. They must be new friends, right?"
