Li Jing caught sight of Lu Mingyu’s actions from the corner of his eye, and his mood became more and more joyful. He slightly raised his lips: “My surname is Li, and I am the second oldest child in the family. I came to the lantern market with my fiancée today, and I worked hard to win the prize. This lantern is for her. I wonder what the girl means by stopping me?”

The pretty girl surnamed Yue was indeed very courageous. She actually opened her mouth and said, “I admire the young master’s appearance and grace, so I want to get to know him.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a girl’s voice rang out: “If Second Miss Yue wants to know anything, just ask me.”

Then, a girl in red walked over slowly.

Yo! There was something good to watch!

The people watching in the lobby were refreshed again, and they all looked over.

Various lanterns illuminate the lobby of Dingxiang Tower as bright as day. The girl in red has skin as white as jade, black eyes like paint, phoenix eyes and red lips, a cool and heroic look, and a stunning appearance.

Second Miss Yue was originally quite confident in her appearance, but when she saw the girl in red, that confidence suddenly disappeared.

Thinking again, the other party was Li Gōngzi’s fiancée, and Second Miss Yue’s confidence weakened by three points: “It’s nothing, I just admire Li Gōngzi’s talent and learning, and I just want to get to know Li Gōngzi.”

Lu Mingyu twitched the corners of her lips and smiled faintly: “My fiancé is seventeen years old. He has been very smart since he was a child. He has read poetry and books, and he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child. Because his family is relatively wealthy, he does not need to study for the imperial exam and gain fame. We made an appointment to get married last year, and the wedding date will be in early February. It’s fate to meet Second Miss Yue today. You might as well come and have a glass of wine then.”

Second Miss Yue: “…”

Lu Mingyu’s aura was fully activated, crushing the enamored girl Second Miss Yue into ashes.

Lu Mingyu waited for a moment, but before Second Miss Yue could open her mouth, she asked thoughtfully: “Is there anything else Second Miss Yue wants to know?”

No matter how thick-skinned Miss Yue Er was, she couldn’t stay any longer: “No more.”

Then, she turned around and left dejectedly.

Before leaving, Second Miss Yue couldn’t help but glance at Second Li Gōngzi. Such a charming and good-looking young man, yet he happened to have such a fierce and formidable fiancée.

What was annoying was that the Second Li Gōngzi didn’t feel the slightest bit unhappy about being controlled. He kept looking at his fiancée with a pair of deep and beautiful black eyes with a smile like the spring breeze.

Second Miss Yue retreated in defeat. The older girls and younger daughters-in-law who had been staring at Li Jing in the lobby weighed their own weight and quickly withdrew their gazes wisely.

…

Li Jing was in a great mood at the moment.

He stepped forward with a smile, put the glazed lantern into Lu Mingyu’s hands, and laughed softly: “Fortunately I have you tonight, otherwise, I really don’t know how to send that girl away politely and without losing dignity.”

Looking at that handsome and joyful face, Lu Mingyu suddenly felt an itch in her hand. She resisted the impulse to throw a punch and chuckled, “I don’t think you had any intention of driving her away at all. So, how does it feel to be approached by someone? Wasn’t it very pleasant?”

In reality, Lu Mingyu’s reaction wasn’t exactly jealousy, at most, it was just protective of her territory.

Li Jing was well aware of this, but he still remained cheerful.

It felt good to be protected!

“It feels pretty good.” Li Jingruo smiled pointedly.

Lu Mingyu rolled her eyes at him calmly.

It was he who insisted on appearing in front of everyone, like a peacock spreading its tail. Wouldn’t it just cause peach blossoms?

The Lu siblings also found it interesting after seeing the excitement.

They wouldn’t tease Lu Mingyu, but Zhao Yu was different.

She stepped forward, her pretty face full of regret: “Fourth Lu, you are really not as good as before. Before, you would have punched that blind girl Second Yue away.”

Everyone:” …”

Everyone turned their heads and snickered.

Yes, this was indeed Lu Mingyu’s usual behavior. Counting the people who had been beaten by Lu Mingyu, there were quite a few. The most famous among them were Second Master Jin and the fourth son of the Zhao family.

Tonight, it can be said that she had restrained herself.

Lu Mingyu smiled and glared at Zhao Yu: “This girl didn’t do anything overstepping, she just said a few words. It’s about to get into trouble.”

Zhao Yu smiled teasingly: “Yes, yes, anyway, as soon as you showed up, Second Miss Yue felt ashamed and retreated silently.”

The Fourth Prince also had some regrets: “That Second Miss Yue’s father has an escort agency, and she must have practiced martial arts. I originally thought that tonight I could watch Fourth Miss Lu show off her skills!”

Here was someone who didn’t mind the excitement.

Lu Mingyu glanced at the Fourth Prince and said with a half-smile, “You really want to see it?”

The Fourth Prince was so smart. He immediately noticed the deep meaning behind these four simple words and responded decisively: “I was just saying casually, you must not take it seriously.”

Even Li Hao was defeated by Lu Mingyu, he had small arms and legs, so he should be more honest!

The Fourth Prince had always been lively and cheerful, and he could tell at a glance who he could and could not provoke.

Sure enough, the Fourth Prince gave in shamelessly, and Lu Mingyu didn’t care anymore, and said with a smile: “We have been out for so long tonight, it’s time for us to go back.”

Lu Mingfang was the first to agree: “Yes, both dàbǎo and xiǎobǎo are a little sleepy.”

Lu Fei also said, “It’s almost time to go home now.”

Everyone didn’t have any objections and left together.

After Lu Mingyu and his party left, the lobby became lively again.

Those who are talkative will inevitably whisper a few words, such as “That Li Gōngzi is controlled like this by his fiancée before he gets married”, “If I had a fiancée like this, I would be happy to be controlled” and so on.

…

Everyone came to enjoy themselves and returned home after enjoying themselves.

Lu Mingfang and Zheng Zheng took the Dabao brothers back to Zheng’s house. Zhou Li and Lu Minghua returned to Zhou’s house. The Fourth Prince sent Zhao Yu back to Puyang Hou Mansion.

Li Jing sent Lu Mingyu back to Xingyang Palace.

The rest of them had already known their interest and took the lead. The unmarried couple were left saying goodbye outside the door.

“Xiaoyu, I’m really happy tonight.” Li Jing’s eyes were full of smiles.

Lu Mingyu snorted softly: “I just have this kind of temper. Whether you like it or not, it’s all mine. No other woman can get involved.”

The smile in Li Jing’s eyes deepened: “I just like your temper.”

Lu Mingyu thought. After thinking for a while, she said: “Actually, I have thought about it too. After we get married and have a legitimate son, you can have as many beauties as you want.”

Li Jing: “…”

In his previous life, Li Hao took his maternal cousin into the palace as his concubine. Lu Mingyu turned against Li Hao and their husband-wife relationship deteriorated. Li Hao was never allowed to enter her rooms again.

When it was his turn, Lu Mingyu became more generous.

Li Jing suppressed his smile and said solemnly: “Xiaoyu, it’s wrong for you to think that way. I am the meat in your bowl now, and other women want to eat it. You must not let me go, and you must protect me firmly.”^[1]and now you have an explanation of the chapter title

Lu Mingyu: “…”
