Chapter 53: Eating Peanuts

Lu Xiu was very happy that Lu Qi could enjoy a part of a normal person's life instead of being trapped in a power struggle every day.

The Lu Qi in front of him suddenly overlapped with the Lu Qi who had saved him eight years ago. Lu Xiu threw those terrible memories to the back of his mind and only then did he realize that his eyes were actually burning.

"Nothing, I was just thinking about what Tiger Head said at dinner tonight. Go to sleep, don't burn yourself out."

He stood up from the chair and accidentally dropped Lu Qi's black windbreaker on the ground.

He bent down to pick it up and found that there was some soil on the carpet.

"Huh? Why is there mud on your clothes? Did you work for Cheng Ling again?"
