Having achieved his goal, Fu Yisheng was pulling Lu Qingqing away from the scene.
As for the contempt from his brothers, he claimed it didn't matter at all.
Lu Qingqing laughed, "Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
She had noticed early on that many people at the banquet were quite reserved, both men and women holding themselves with considerable restraint. No one else, like Fu Yisheng, had sought rescue from their girlfriend the moment they were besieged by friends.
"I've got a body of copper skin and iron bones; their laughing won't make me lose any flesh," Fu Yisheng said. After asking a waiter for a cup of warm water and taking a few sips to test it, he handed it to her, "You haven't had a single sip of water since you came in, drink some warm water to moisten your throat."
Lu Qingqing was indeed thirsty and without any formalities, she took the cup and sipped lightly.
The warm water soothed her throat instantly.
