Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

Chapter 231: Stop Pretending

Lu Siheng finally found some time tonight. He couldn't find Yunling in person, and the experts who went out didn't bring back any clues, which made him feel upset.

I came to Qingyan and drank some wine. I talked to her about my worries and felt a little relieved.

After leaving Baihua Building, he was blown away by the comfortable spring breeze, which blew away the sweet and greasy smell in his nose.

There were only a few people walking on the street. He took a deep breath and thought that Cui Qiyan was also sent out to do work by the Holy Master, which made him feel balanced. In this way, they are at the same starting point, and it depends on who can meet Yunling first this time.

There are many people in the expert place, so he has confidence.

It was already the second watch when he returned to the Zhongjing Hou Mansion. As soon as Lu Siheng entered the door, he heard the concierge's servant say: "Third Master, the Marquis asked you to go to the study to find him immediately after you come back."

"I know." Lu Siheng walked towards the study, thinking on the way that it might not be a good thing to let him go there so late.

The light was on in the study, and Lu Siheng went up and knocked on the door, "Father."

"Come in." Sure enough, the voice that came out had a bad tone.

Lu Siheng pushed the door open and went in, "It's so late, dad still hasn't rested, what do you want me to do?"

Lu Hao sat in front of his desk and couldn't help frowning when he raised his head, "Are you hanging out in a place like a brothel again?"

The smell of alcohol and makeup on his body was evidence of this.

Lu Siheng didn't intend to hide it, "I'm going."

"You are now the deputy commander of the Expert Division. You must not act as absurdly as before." Lu Hao stood up from his chair.

Lu Siheng let out a sarcastic sneer, "In my father's eyes, everything I did before was ridiculous?"

"That's not what I meant. I now know that what you did before was intentional. Besides, I know that what you did before was intentional.

In fact, you should tell me that you want to serve the imperial court, and I can arrange a position for you in the army, which is much better than if you go to an expert. "

He still learned from the Holy Father that his son had been working in an expert position. Hearing this news, he felt mixed emotions at the time.

It turned out that Heng'er was not a good-for-nothing dude, and Lu Hao was very pleased. But when I think about how, as a father, I have never noticed, and often get angry with him because he stays out at night and hangs out in the fireworks alley, I feel a little lost and ashamed.

Looking at the son in front of him who looked like the person he loved deeply in his heart, Lu Hao felt a dull pain in his heart. It turned out that he didn't understand this son at all.

How did he survive these years as an expert? He must have suffered a lot, right? Does he also have many scars on his body? Where did he get his injuries treated when he was injured?

Lu Hao knew nothing about all this.

Lu Siheng could clearly see the guilty look in Lu Hao's eyes. He had seen enough in the past twenty years. What was the use of guilt? Could it bring his mother back to life?

"What's wrong with the expert?" Lu Siheng sneered, "Yes, my father is the Zhongjing Marquis with great military exploits. Naturally, he looks down on people like the expert who work in the dark. But I don't rely on you. Everything is happening now. I worked hard for it myself and cannot tolerate being looked down upon by others.”

Seeing that he had misunderstood again, Lu Hao quickly shook his head, "I didn't look down on him. Experts directly receive orders from the Holy One. No one dares to treat him lightly. I just, I just..."

In front of him, Lu Hao couldn't say anything about his distress, so he went back in desperation.

"In short, every move you make now represents the face of the Holy Sage, and you can no longer enter or leave places like brothels.

You don't need to use it as a cover anymore, you can just come back home after you finish your work or get injured. "

"Father, don't think that everything I did before was just to hide my identity. There is indeed a confidante of mine in Baihualou. Even if my identity is exposed, I will not hide it. I am still me, father. Don't think that I am an expert and have changed my ways." Lu Siheng stressed.

Lu Hao was choked by him and couldn't breathe, "I'm doing this for your own good..."

"For my own good?" Lu Siheng's expression changed, "What did you do when mother and I needed you? Now I don't need you anymore!"

"Heng'er..."

His mother's death and the torture he suffered back then were like a gap that could never be crossed, blocking the way between their father and son.

"Is this what you called me here to say?" Lu Siheng made a gesture to leave.

"No," Lu Hao remembered the business, "I will go to the border in two days according to the order. You try not to conflict with your eldest brother and aunt. If you have anything to do, write to me."

"Father doesn't need to call me here just for this. It's not just once or twice that you're not in the house. As long as they don't provoke me, I have no intention of talking to them at the moment. You should tell them this."

"Nothing else, I'm leaving first."

Before Lu Hao could answer, Lu Siheng turned around and left.

Lu Hao's hand was about to be raised but fell down weakly. He sighed softly and returned to the desk.

They were not the only ones who were awake in the house.

When Mrs. Zhou heard the footsteps, she immediately stood up from the couch. When she saw that it was indeed Wang's mother who came in, she hurriedly asked, "What did the Marquis say to that little evildoer?"

Mother Wang came closer and lowered her voice: "I don't dare to

Being too close, I could only vaguely hear that the Marquis and the Third Master seemed to be arguing again. The Third Master looked unhappy when he came out. "

Zhou was not surprised at all, "When father and son met, they never calmed down. I didn't need to do anything more, and their relationship couldn't be eased. Do you know why they were quarreling this time?"

"It seems that the third master went to the brothel again and came back smelling of alcohol. The marquis waited for him in the study for several hours."

"Hmph, it's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature. Even if he becomes a celebrity in front of the emperor now, he still can't change his bad habits. The higher he climbs, the harder he falls. I don't see how long he can be proud." Zhou Shi said while biting his back molars.

"I didn't expect that the Third Master has such a deep mind. After pretending to be idle for so many years, he turned around and became the deputy commander of the Expert Department. Even the wind direction outside also changed, saying that he was not really a playboy, but just for the sake of the Expert Department. He has no choice but to do this, so I praise him for being patient." Mother Wang said in a low voice.

"It's really bearable. Even I was deceived by him." Zhou said with an angry expression, "I thought he was just a loser and not something to be afraid of. I didn't realize that it was just the little wolf cub that had grown up and learned to act stupid."

"It was my carelessness and letting down my guard that made him grow sharp claws. Now he is not easy to deal with."

Zhou regretted it very much. If she had been more ruthless and let that scoundrel go underground with his mother, there wouldn't be so many things happening now. She was still too young at that time and did not dare to kill her.

"The maids that I sent there first were all sent back by the third master. This time, they didn't even give a reason."

"He's not going to pretend anymore," Mrs. Zhou walked to the dressing table and sat down.

He stood up, combed his long hair, and said to the mirror, "That's fine, Mr. Marquis is leaving soon. I want to see how capable he is."
