Chapter 405: Heart Hurts So Much 10_1

“What happened?” Lu An came in front of everyone, fixing his gaze on Guisu.

Guisu glanced at him, his voice deep, “This girl injured Mr.

Mu and the young miss, I came to take her back.”

Lu An made a dismissive gesture, and Guisu retreated a few steps.

It seemed that Guisu didn’t have much respect for Lu An.

But perhaps because he is Lu Xuening’s father, he was willing to obey him.

Dongfang Ji and Baili Xia couldn’t help but suspect who was backing Lu Xuening.

Guisu was her servant, and it was clear that besides her, he didn’t recognize any other master.

Only after Guisu withdrew did Lu An approach Dongfang Ji, greeting with a smile, “Good day, Mr.

Mu.”

“Hmph!” Dongfang Ji snorted coldly, not giving any face.

Did he, as Mr.

Mu, need to show respect to a butler?

Moreover, this butler never took him seriously.

Every time he came, he wouldn’t greet him immediately but would instead first ask his people what had happened.

This butler, Lu An, was really cunning.

He had one set of behaviors in front of his parents and another in front of him.

Sooner or later, he would drive out all the members of the Lu family!

Turning to look at Baili Xia, he strode towards the courtyard of Lu family’s house.

Baili Xia followed closely behind.

Now, she didn’t even want to greet her foster father.

She was really anxious now, anxious to see Dongfang Jin.

He had risked his life just now to provide her the chance to escape.

What had Lu Xuening done to him?

Would she harm him?

As they were about to enter the Lu’s courtyard, Guisu tried to stop them, but was blocked by Lu An’s sharp gaze.

Lu An immediately followed Dongfang Ji with his people.

Just as Dongfang Ji was about to storm into the mansion, Lu An stopped them.

“How dare you!

You’re just a butler, a mere servant here!”

Dongfang Ji really detested these people now.

This was his home, but he had been obstructed at every turn!

Did these people not know their own surname?

Did they not know who the master of this place was?

Contrastingly laidback in comparison to Dongfang Ji’s anger and agitation was Lu An.

Watching Dongfang Ji, he smiled amiably.

“Mr.

Mu, you’re welcome to see the eldest young master, but she can’t.”

Pointing at Baili Xia, he continued with his smile.

“This is my adopted daughter.

I’m sorry about her hurting the eldest young master.”

“Now, I must take her back and teach her a lesson, so she can’t hurt anyone else.”

Looking at Dongfang Ji again, he maintained a genial expression.

“Mr.

Mu, you wouldn’t want to interfere with our Lu family affairs, would you?”

Dongfang Ji was momentarily stunned.

He hadn’t registered earlier that Baili Xia was Lu An’s adopted daughter.

It was true that he shouldn’t meddle in other families’ affairs.

However, it was clear that they were trying to bully Baili Xia.

How could he let Baili Xia go with Lu An?

Once taken away by his people, what terrifying things they might do to her was unimaginable.

As he lowered his gaze to Baili Xia, she too, met his eyes, considering.

Dongfang Ji immediately understood.

For Baili Xia to go with them surely wasn’t good.

“She is my girlfriend.

I’ll handle this for her.”

To prevent Baili Xia from being taken away by Lu An, this was the only solution.

Baili Xia was also helpless.

What she wanted to do more at this moment was to check on Jin.

Jin, he must be okay.

Otherwise, she herself wouldn’t be able to forgive herself!
