One of the two male protagonists. He is the younger brother of Lu Zhiyou and a young master of the Lu family (Chancellor's Mansion). He is two years younger than Lu Zhiyou. He is described as handsome with a scholarly air and delicate features. He has harbored a secret crush on the original Leng Yaoda for years. When the original Leng Yaoda met her tragic death, Lu Shixiu single-handedly uncovered the truth behind it and even contemplated fratricide for her sake. His voice is cooler with a faint sense of melancholy, crisper than his brother's.
