She wrapped her arms around herself and studied him with narrowed eyes. “I think you owe me an explanation about your relationship with Huo Yunting. Also, who is that lady? You never leave the house. I think the only woman you know is the lady downstairs.”
Lu Bai slid further away from her with his laptop. “She is the Huo family’s stepdaughter. Nevertheless, the matter with the organization has nothing to do with them. Besides, Ol’ Jiu has got Huo Yunting injured.”
Wen He affected mock surprise. “He didn’t manage to kill Huo Yunting with his legendary shooting skills? Oh well, at least Chen Jiu has gotten revenge for me on Huo Yunting. I’ll be sure to treat him to a good meal!”
She clapped cheerfully but accidentally stretched her wound. Her face twisted in pain.
Lu Bai ignored her and brought his laptop to the living room.
The next day, Lu Zhaoyang was about to head to work when she saw Huo Li standing right outside her door, waiting for her.
“Hey there. How is Huo Yunting?” she asked.
“Brother Ting is as fit as a fiddle. I’m here for you!”
Since the attacker was not found yet, Huo Yunting was worried about her and sent him over as protection.
“I’m just heading to the office. It should be fine.”
She slowly stepped out of her apartment. Despite understanding that the matter was serious, she was still unwilling to have Huo Li following her around.
If anyone in the office saw him, they might think that he was trying to commit corporate espionage.
Lu Zhaoyang made her way down the stairs as she called Huo Yunting on the phone. Huo Li followed behind her without a word.
Brother Ting is worried about her. Why can’t she just accept his gesture?
“Are you feeling better?” she asked gently.
“Yup, I’m not dead yet.”
He replied casually as though the serious injury did not bother him at all.
“I’m fine too. I did not offend anyone important in the city, so there’s no need for a bodyguard, right?” She took a peek at Huo Li behind her.
“Don’t forget that you are my sister in name. I’m just being careful.”
He could take care of the perpetrators himself, but what if they go for someone close to him instead?
“How long will Huo Li be with me? I don’t want to die, but I am not that desperate yet,” she said. “Besides, having a man with me all the time is not very convenient.”
Huo Yunting considered that for two long seconds. “You’re right. Let Huo Li see you to Ge Yu. I will send you a new bodyguard.”
“Are you overreacting?”
“Objection denied.”
“…”
Lu Zhaoyang listened to the dial tone on her phone and sighed. Huo Li followed behind her as she drove to the office.
To have Huo Yunting’s personal assistant serve as a normal office lady’s bodyguard was too excessive.
After seeing her walk into the office building safely, Huo Li drove away.
Lu Zhaoyang had just entered the reception hall when a woman dressed in all-black leather jacket and leather pants approached her. She wore sharp high heels and seemed to be enjoying a lollipop.
The woman was over 170 centimeters tall. She had sharp, oval eyes and clean-cut hair. She looked at Lu Zhaoyang with her balanced and handsome features.
Lu Zhaoyang was certain that they had never met.
“How do you do. I am Yan Se.” The woman extender her arm.
Lu Zhaoyang did not reciprocate. She was wary of this apparent stranger.
