1348 Wanted To Grab Him For A Good Beating

Lu Liangwei helped comb a suitable hairstyle for her even though she could not work on anything too complicated.

After she was done, she also picked an exquisite golden hairpin and stuck it into Chu Jiu’s hair.

A long, golden pendant hanging from it swung gently. It glowed in the light, looking absolutely resplendent. Chu Jiu’s beauty was further accentuated by it, and she looked even more regal than she did before.

Lu Liangwei stared at Chu Jiu for a bit before helping her put on some light makeup.

After they were done dressing up, Lu Liangwei led Chu Jiu to the main hall.

They had just walked toward the doors of the hall when they bumped into the Dowager Duchess, who had just entered the Palace.

Lu Liangwei quickly went forward to welcome her. “Grandmother.”

The Dowager Duchess smiled and patted her hand before turning to look at Chu Jiu. “This is…”

When Chu Jiu saw her, she quickly moved forward and bowed. She was a little nervous. “Dowager Duchess.”

Lu Liangwei noticed her grandmother looking a little unsure and her lips pursed into a smile. “Grandmother, this is Chu Jiu. Don’t you recognize her?”

The Dowager Duchess looked at Chu Jiu in astonishment when she heard this. She looked at the elegantly pretty girl in front of her. She could not hide the joy in her aged eyes. “Oh, I can’t believe it’s you, Jiu. I couldn’t recognize you when you’re dressed this way.”

Chu Jiu lowered her head in slight embarrassment.

“Doesn’t Jiu look pretty, Grandmother?” Lu Liangwei said with a smile.

“Yes. Yes, she does.” The Dowager Duchess waved Chu Jiu over as she said this. “Come here quick, Jiu. Let me take a good look at you.”

Chu Jiu felt even more embarrassed when she heard the Dowager Duchess praising her. Her face became red, but she still went toward the Dowager Duchess obediently.

The Dowager Duchess held her hand and looked her over carefully. She praised Chu Jiu sincerely, “What a pretty young lady.” She turned to look at Lu Liangwei in delight while speaking. “Your big brother has good taste.”

Lu Liangwei smiled and said, “My big brother’s taste isn’t bad at all. Otherwise, how could he be smart enough to take away Jiu from my side, the most capable person I have.” With that, she pouted.

The Dowager Duchess scolded her playfully, “You should be careful with what you say, you naughty girl. What do you mean by him taking Jiu away? They got to know each other better through their arguments, which feels kind of like destiny.”

It was clear that the Dowager Duchess had been aware that Lu Tingchen and Chu Jiu had not gotten along before.

“Alright, alright. I shouldn’t have spoken badly against your absolute, most favorite, treasured grandson and granddaughter-in-law.” Lu Liangwei stuck out her tongue and pretended to look upset.

Chu Jiu’s face and ears turned red from listening to the conversation.

The Dowager Duchess knew her granddaughter very well. She reached out to pinch Lu Liangwei’s face. “You’re already a mother and you’re still acting so childish. Aren’t you also my absolute, most favorite granddaughter?”

Lu Liangwei could no longer keep up the pretense and burst out laughing when she heard this. “Haha. Grandmother knows to kid around as well. Not bad.”

The Dowager Duchess laughed as well. She poked Lu Liangwei on the forehead. “I sound like an old geezer when you put it that way. But you’re indeed my absolute, most favorite granddaughter.”

Lu Liangwei thought this was really sweet. It felt like she had just tasted honey. She hugged the Dowager Duchess’s arm. “Grandmother is not an old geezer at all. You’re a…”

“What am I?” The Dowager Duchess got curious when Lu Liangwei stopped there.

“You’re a lovable old rogue.”

The corner of the Dowager Duchess’s lips twitched. “You’re the only one who dares say that about me.”

Lu Tingchen was drinking tea with Ji’er in his arms when he heard laughter from outside. He went out to see what was going on.

When he saw Chu Jiu standing next to his grandmother, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Even though Chu Jiu looked quite dapper in men’s attire, he still liked her better in a dress.

She looked pure and pretty, and there was a slight blush on her cheeks, which gave her a coy look.

Even when she stood next to beauties like his mother and sister, Jiu’s beauty still shone through. There was a unique charm about her. Even if she was not the most beautiful among them, her beauty stood out in a special way. It was a charm that attracted him and intoxicated him deeply.

He stood at the doorway with Ji’er in his arms. His dark eyes lit up with a smile, and he reached a hand out to Chu Jiu. “Come here, Jiu.”

Chu Jiu felt uncomfortable when she met his straightforward and passionate gaze. It also did not help when he said something like that to her.

When she noticed Her Highness and the Dowager Duchess’s teasing looks, she really wanted to grab Lu Tingchen for a good beating.
