Originally, he had come to make Lu Xingzhou lose face.
But now, the joke was on him.
"I really didn't expect that Lu had hidden it so deep." He tugged at the corners of his mouth, saying the words that went against his heart.
Lu Xingzhou raised his eyebrows, surprisingly keeping a low profile, "I've retired from the military years ago; naturally, there's no need to bring up such matters with fanfare."
"Well, you truly are impressive. You've been out of the service for so many years, yet your fame still lingers in the martial world. In my opinion, you should have stuck with the military; business just doesn't suit you as well." The Prince spoke insincerely, his words dripping with acidity.
The words were laced with praise, sarcasm, mockery, as well as envy and jealousy.
Lu Xingzhou just smiled and did not argue.
Instead, he changed the subject, "Prince, do you remember what you said last night?"
"What did I say?" The Prince was momentarily stunned.
