Song Qiao was suddenly pulled out by Lu Jingchen before she could think, and when she looked up, she met a pair of eyes filled with a chilling air. Instinctively, she wanted to back away, but Lu Jingchen seemed to anticipate her move and firmly kept her by his side by holding onto her waist.
Trapped, Song Qiao felt a desire to cry but had no tears. For some reason, the man Lu Jingchen called 'Uncle' gave her a feeling of danger, yet she couldn't explain why if asked; it was probably just his aura.
Her mind racing, Song Qiao straightened up and bowed at ninety degrees, speaking formally and respectfully: "Greetings to Huo Third Brother!"
Lin Musen and Gu Xicheng almost couldn't hold back their laughter at Song Qiao's rigid demeanor, but a glance from Lu Jingchen made them forcefully suppress it.
Lu Jingchen, noticing Song Qiao's nervousness, corrected her warmly, the corners of his lips curving slightly, "Xiao Qiao... you should call him Uncle."
