Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty
Chapter 59: Beautiful, Kind, Gentle, and Generous

Chapter 59: Chapter 59: Beautiful, Kind, Gentle, and Generous

The next two days, Lu Xiao had a very comfortable time.

He just ate, drank, and slept in the villa, occasionally taking an interest in learning some about sexual knowledge online.

Of course, Lu Xiao’s favorite thing was still the swimming pool in the backyard of the villa.

He set up two beach chairs with a sun umbrella, sipped on beer, and shot the breeze—totally relaxed and carefree.

That evening, like usual, Lu Xiao and Chen Han lay on the beach chairs shirtless, sprawled out and admiring the sunset.

In their hands, each held a bottle of cold beer, with some snacks set on a small table beside them.

"Brother Lu, I heard from Qin Kai that you’re going to divorce Qin Youling?" Chen Han suddenly asked, turning his head.

Lu Xiao nodded, "It was a contract marriage from the start. Now that the matters of the Qin Family have settled down, of course, it’s time to divorce."

Speaking of which, he had called Qin Youling several times over the past few days, trying to arrange a meeting at the civil affairs office, but no one answered.

"It’s good to divorce, Qin Youling is not worthy of Brother Lu."

"I think my sister is better, beautiful and kind, gentle and generous..."

Lu Xiao rolled his eyes; Chen Han was starting again.

But if you’re going to introduce her, don’t talk nonsense. You say your sister is beautiful, I have no objections, but kind, gentle, generous—what are those?

Your sister used to be an assassin, for God’s sake!

Going around slitting people’s throats and stabbing hearts.

You must have some misunderstandings about being kind and gentle.

"Brother Lu, I’m telling you, my sister has never had a boyfriend all these years."

"You must cherish her, don’t wait until you lose her to have regrets."

Chen Han kept going, but he had barely spoken when his beach chair was overturned.

Lu Xiao, sitting nearby, didn’t even turn his head; he knew it was Chen Fei without looking.

"The time is almost up, the members of the Elder Council have arrived at Pingshan Village, I’ll wait outside for you guys for two minutes," said Chen Fei before kicking Chen Han’s butt twice, and then she left.

No sooner had Chen Fei left than Lu Xiao sprang up from his chair and quickly began to dress.

If he was late, Chen Fei might resort to glares again.

The grounded Chen Han didn’t even bother to dress, dragging his clothes and running out.

...

An hour later, as the sun was setting, the three of them arrived at Pingshan Village.

As soon as they entered the village, Lu Xiao saw Zhou Hu, the leader of the Security Team.

Zhou Hu was just as burly and rough as before, with a large bushy beard, carrying a big machete on his shoulder.

But this time, Zhou Hu’s attitude was completely different from before.

He approached with a big grin on his face, running to greet them.

"Mr. Lu, you’ve arrived. I’ve already sent someone to notify the Pavilion Master. Please take a seat and rest," Zhou Hu said as he moved a stool, quite eagerly accommodating.

Lu Xiao didn’t hesitate and directly sat down.

"How’s it been? Is what I taught you last time still useful?" Lu Xiao asked with a smile.

Previously, although Zhou Hu was the head of the Security Team, only a few actually obeyed him.

"Very useful, incredibly so!" Zhou Hu immediately perked up at the mention, "Mr. Lu, you wouldn’t believe, after you left that day, I made an example of a few rebellious guys. Now everyone is much more obedient."

Lu Xiao nodded; Zhou Hu had finally gotten a clue.

What was all that nonsense before? As the leader of a Security Team, and you tried to rule by virtue—that’s just plain silly.

Pavilion Master Jiang might work with cunning and ingenuity, but you only need to be tough and fierce to keep your subordinates in line.

"By the way, Mr. Lu, you came to discuss matters with the Elder Council, right?" Zhou Hu suddenly squatted down and lowered his voice at the same time.

"Uh-huh, what about it?"

"Be careful. I overheard some chatter just now; the Elder Council seems to be plotting against you."

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows; as expected, these people weren’t going to be easy to handle.

"But don’t worry, I’ve already made preparations."

"If you run into trouble later, just break a cup, and I, Zhou Hu, will risk my life to protect you," Zhou Hu said firmly thumping his chest.

Lu Xiao patted Zhou Hu on the shoulder with a smile.

Good job, Zhou Hu. Learning to pick sides already, huh?

"Alright, let breaking the cup be the signal," Lu Xiao agreed, not wanting to dampen his enthusiasm.

"Brother Lu, the Pavilion Master has come," Chen Han then reminded in a low voice.

Lu Xiao looked up, and directly in front of him, Jiang Lan was striding towards him.

On either side of Jiang Lan were a group of middle-aged and elderly acquaintances, Gao Zhan among them.

It seemed that this was the Elder Council of the White Clothes Pavilion.

Only when Jiang Lan and others approached did Lu Xiao slowly stand up.

"Mr. Lu, good to see you," Jiang Lan greeted respectfully with a low bow.

Seeing Jiang Lan’s attitude towards Lu Xiao, the faces of the Elder Council members immediately soured.

To us, you act all high and mighty, but in front of Lu Xiao, you’re all meek and humble.

Clearly, this was a slap to our faces!

"Pavilion Master Jiang, good to see you too. Nice new hairstyle, by the way."

Previously, Jiang Lan had her hair in a bun, but today, she had let it down and seemed to have styled it as well.

Of course, Lu Xiao couldn’t tell which suited her better, a bun or long flowing hair, because it was hard to see her face under the mask.

Under the mask, Jiang Lan’s face seemed pleased.

Lu Xiao was attentive as always, noticing my change right away, unlike these middle-aged and elderly folks who are blind to it.

"Mr. Gao Zhan is here too?" Lu Xiao then waved to Gao Zhan.

Gao Zhan sighed, his expression somewhat helpless.

He had tried his best to persuade them, but it seemed that the other three factions of the Elder Council were not interested in cooperating with Lu Xiao.

"Alright, let’s cut to the chase!"

"I do not approve of the White Clothes Pavilion ceasing the assassination business," an irritable skinny old man burst out from the crowd.
