Chapter 371: Lu Jian’s Family (2) (1/2)
The two of them naturally noticed the small interaction that Lu Jian and Lin Xiao had. They had heard that Lu Jian was originally planning to stay away from the throne's battle. But it didn't seem to be possible any longer because of his interaction with Lin Xiao. In fact, it would be weirder if they didn't get into trouble.
Old Master Lu nodded. He looked at Lu Jian. ”It's rare to see you return back. You haven't returned back at all for the past two years and I thought you would have forgotten about me.”
Lu Jian's face changed. ”What are you talking, Grandpa? I naturally will not forget about you! Didn't I send you letter occasionally.”
”Mhm…” Old Master Lu checked on Lu Jian again and finally realized why he felt a bit strange. When Lu Jian was going to Sun Dragon Academy, he was clearly still a Body Training Stage punk who was only slightly better than his peers. But only two years or so had passed and the little punk was already close to breaking through to Golden Core Stage 1?
That was too fast.
Did this brat consumed some kind of treasure or encountered a Heaven defying accident?
”Why did you return this time?” Elder Lu, Lu Jian's father, asked in stern tone. When facing Lin Xiao, it was clear that he had to soften his tone a bit, but when facing his son, Hehehe, there was no way he would do that.
Lu Jian smiled bitterly. ”Father, I'm accompanying Lin Xiao around…”
Bletak!
”Why did you say his name carelessly?” Elder Lu felt his son really didn't know his place. Didn't he know that the person before him was a prince now?
Lu Jian was stunned then he recalled Lin Xiao's new identity and nearly cursed. How could he forget that they had to address Imperial Family members with full respect if they didn't want to be accused of slighting them.
”This…”
”Elder Lu, there's no need. Lu Jian is my friend and we got along well.” Lin Xiao stopped Elder Lu from beating up his son. He felt that his knowledge regarding the Imperial Family really need to be renewed as he himself often felt that he was being disrespectful to others…
Elder Lu nodded. ”Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness.”
Lu Jian rubbed his head resentfully. He should have known that Lin Xiao would not be accepted being addressed so formally. If it was a few more years from now, Lin Xiao might feel nothing.
But he was only a 19 years old brat and also someone who had only gotten a status for a short period of time. How could he accept getting addressed so politely like that?
”Father, I would like to bring Lin Xiao to tour my house a bit. He'll be staying here for the night.”
”Alright, I'll ask the servants to prepare an additional room.”
