Just like Gou Wei was Su Feiyu's lackey, Lu Jian was He Fenghua's.
Otherwise, He Fenghua wouldn't have asked Su Yuxin to sleep with Lu Jian after she lost.
The greatest duty of a lackey is to support their own master.
Lu Jian was well aware of this, so when he heard Su Yuxin say, "He Fenghua, you seem to have forgotten something," he immediately stepped in front of He Fenghua.
He lacked the courage and confidence to challenge the victorious Su Yuxin, but that didn't mean he couldn't scare off Ye Fan.
Only—
What he and everyone else hadn't anticipated was that Ye Fan, who had been silent and overlooked from beginning to end, not only didn't choose to avoid confrontation with Lu Jian tactfully but became even more defiant, completely disregarding Lu Jian and targeting the already upset He Fenghua!
Was he seeking death?
