"Brother, when you were little, you did like to be hugged and held high, but the old man never hugged me at that time. Unlike when you were little, he held you in his arms all day long." Lu Jiu curled his lips, as if he felt aggrieved when he thought of the past.
Lu Che raised the corners of his lips with a faint smile. Why was her elder brother always like this? He was obviously a man who could stand on his own, but he was still very cold and stern in front of outsiders, but he was always childish in front of her.
Lu Che: "That's because your father wants to train you to be his successor, so he spoils you like a spoiled brat. What will our Lu Jiu family do in the future?"
Lu Jiu: "Don't we still have you? You are much more capable than my brother. Every time my brother encounters difficulties, you always give him advice. It's a pity that you can't inherit the Lu Jiu family..."
As if he remembered something, the smile on Lu Jiu's face faded a little, revealing a solemn look.
He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he pulled Lu Che to a corner and said, "Xiao Che, tell me honestly, is it convenient for you to stay with the young master now? Will there be any hidden dangers of being discovered? When you were a child, the old man asked you to stay with the young master. In addition to the mistress's pleading, it was also a means of protecting you. The young master lives a secluded life and doesn't like to contact outsiders. It's more difficult for your identity to be discovered when you are with him."
Lu Che: “…”
Uh, she looked at Lu Jiu's eyebrows which were tightly furrowed like ink and full of worry, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
How should she tell her eldest brother about the current situation so as not to over-stimulate him
Lu Che's mind was in a state of confusion. Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lu Jiu thought that Lu Che was feeling miserable but couldn't express it.
Lu Jiu sighed and pulled his sister into a hug.
Lu Jiu wrapped his strong arms around Lu Che to give her warmth. His large hands gently patted Lu Che's thin shoulders from behind. "Okay, okay, don't worry too much. Big Brother has been helping you find a suitable marriage partner recently. Don't worry, Big Brother will definitely find you a reliable and good 'wife' who can cover for you. Then you can use marriage as an excuse to temporarily leave the military."
My sister is grown up now, and it’s not a good idea for a young girl to hang out with those grown men in the military all day long.
It’s a pity that his father kept telling him until his death, holding his hand, that he must take good care of Xiao Che and not let her identity be exposed.
Otherwise, Lu Jiu would definitely make Lu Che find a husband who is young, handsome, loyal, gentle and devoted.
Now, I can only let my sister down and find a girl who cannot get married for other reasons and live with her for the rest of her life.
“Um… Big Brother…” Lu Che couldn’t hold back any longer when he heard that Lu Jiu actually wanted to find a ‘wife’ for him.
She was held in Lu Jiu's arms with emotion, and her voice sounded muffled because Lu Jiu held her too close: "There is something that I have never had the chance to tell you. Do you want to take a rest first? When you are well rested, we can talk about it later... I am afraid that if I tell you now, you will not be able to bear it."
Master Lu ordered that the news be blocked from Lu Jiu, so Lu Jiu was kept in the dark. Now that the truth was suddenly told to him, Lu Che was really afraid that her brother would not be able to bear the shock.
Lu Jiu frowned: "When has your big brother ever been unable to bear anything? Big brother doesn't need to rest, just tell me directly, big brother has nothing that he can't bear."
What could his little Che say to scare him
The most I can do is tell him that I have found a suitable marriage partner.
If that was the case, the most he could do was to investigate the girl further to see if her character and credit were reliable and whether she could keep Xiao Che's secret.
It can't be a big deal.
