He didn't start pushing Qiao Yun away because of Xun Minzhi's threats, nor did he want her to dislike him because of that.
The Lu Family wouldn't lose if they really went up against the Xun Family.
He had been trying to escape the Lu Family for a few years now, not wanting his family to notice that something was off with him.
Lu Zhanxing thought back to when Qiao Yun had just returned, and Xie Ying asked him why he didn't go back to see her.
At the time, he had said he was afraid his bad temper would scare her.
That wasn't just talk.
Xun Minzhi made him realize that he was still dangerous and that he shouldn't be close to his family.
Lu Zhanxing regretted once again that he shouldn't have allowed Qiao Yun to come.
Thinking about the way Qiao Yun had looked at him just before, Lu Zhanxing just felt a suffocation in his chest.
