Chapter 551: Come Out Now!_1

“Mr. Dongfang, my elder brother meant no harm, he was just concerned about me.”

Upon seeing Dongfang Qing’s expression, Baili Xia immediately explained to avoid any conflict between the two families.

“My elder brother knows that Lu Xuening is full of deceit, he was afraid that I would be taken advantage of and hence, arranged for his people to be on standby.”

“Please wait a moment, let me call my brother and explain to him.”

With that, she immediately picked up her cell phone.

Everyone just watched her, even Dongfang Qing and Dongfang Jin did not speak, nor did they stop her.

If it was just a misunderstanding, nobody wanted to stir up trouble again.

What they didn’t understand was why this young girl was so important to Mu Xiaoyao and even to Mu Xiaojiu.

So important that Mu Xiaojiu’s camp was always ready to come to her aid, as if it was a game they were playing.

“Brother, I’m fine.” As soon as the call was connected, Baili Xia immediately began explaining to the person on the other end of the line.

“I was just talking about the past with them and lost track of time, I…”

“Come out, I’m in the courtyard, now!”

Mu Xiaoyao interrupted her in a cold voice, not believing she was safe until he saw her.

“Alright, I’m coming out now, don’t do anything rash.”

Baili Xia hung up the phone and turned around to glance at Dongfang Jin.

“I’ll walk you out.” Dongfang Jin stood up.

Despite having consumed quite a bit of alcohol.

And even though he had unknowingly consumed the sedative Lu Xuening had slipped into his drink.

He had come prepared today and had already taken the antidote Dr.

Liu had prescribed him from the start.

Common sedatives would not affect him much.

That’s why he was completely sober when he stood up at this moment.

“Jin…” Xuening, who was being cornered by Lei Shuo, looked up at him, her eyes filled with tears.

“Jin, I’m really being framed, I beg of you, Jin, you must believe me.”

“Tonight, I’ll give you a chance to explain everything.”

There was an inexplicable chill in Dongfang Jin’s voice.

Meeting Dongfang Qing’s gaze, he pursed his lips, his words devoid of warmth.

“Father, deal with Lu An as you see fit, but this woman, I want to deal with or myself.”

“Jin…” Xuening wanted to say something else.

But Dongfang Jin had already walked out of the room accompanying Baili Xia.

Lu An was also kneeling on the side, constantly begging for mercy, but this time, nobody paid him any mind.

Only after Dongfang Jin and Baili Xia left along with Dongfang Ji, did Dongfang Qing’s gaze fall on Lu An.

“You’re no longer welcome in this house, get out at once!”

Lu An knew, he could no longer stay here.

The fact that the patriarch did not mete out more punishment was already a kindness considering the years he had spent working for the Dongfang Family.

But, he couldn’t just leave like this!

“Master, please…

please forgive Xuening, she is being framed, Master…”

“Lock this woman up, wait for the eldest young master to deal with her personally.”

Dongfang Qing no longer looked at Lu An, he just glanced at Lei Shuo indifferently.

“Alright.” Lei Shuo immediately picked up Lu Xuening and headed out.

“Father, dad I’m really innocent, dad… mom, mom, you must believe me, I’ve always loved Jin so much, how could I possibly harm him? Mom…”

At this point, even Qin Yimo didn’t want to look at her anymore.

Anything else could be overlooked, but attempting to harm her son, just wasn’t acceptable!

Seeing Lu Xuening being taken away by Lei Shuo, Lu An also panicked.

He knelt before Dongfang Qing, earnestly begging, “Master, master, please forgive Xuening, it was all my doing, I instructed everything, it’s all my fault!”
