Chapter 207 Don't Take It to Heart Anymore

Peng Meijie appeared very concerned about whether Chu Wei could continue to cope, but in reality, she just wanted to see if Chu Wei was still worth her help.

Chu Wei had clearly already made up his mind, and said directly, "Go find the Luo family!"

The murder weapon that killed Han Mingrui was clearly a gun from the Luo family. Even if Han Mingzhi wanted to target him, there was no reason for him to ignore such obvious evidence and let the Luo family find him first. Something must have gone wrong.

Could it be that the Luo family acted faster and directly shifted the blame onto us? That's not necessarily the case.

"Alright."

Hearing that Chu Wei was well-organized, Peng Meijie felt much more at ease. She continued to comfort him, "Don't worry, I brought people here to guard this area. Han Mingzhi won't dare to come and cause trouble easily again. This will buy you some time."

Chu Wei didn't have time to thank Peng Meijie properly. He hurriedly had someone tidy him up and then went to the Luo family.

Perhaps the fight today left him feeling uneasy, so he brought quite a few people with him to follow him secretly, just in case something unexpected happened.

But unless he was forced into a corner, he would never dare to break ties with the Luo family.

It all depends on what they say...

The autumn wind is blowing fiercely, tearing all the leaves that are struggling to stay on the trees off. As they dance, they cross mountains and rivers, and occasionally bump into people.

Then people like Chu Wei will feel even worse.

The wind blew, the wind blew, and all his good luck away, bringing with it all this messy, troublesome stuff, worse than a tree leaf that has lost its roots.

The Luo family villa was exactly the same as before; clearly, everything was perfectly fine there.

Such a stark contrast only deepened Chu Wei's frustration.

So when he met the butler, he didn't exchange many pleasantries and went straight to asking about the matter, wanting to know what was going on with the Luo family's gun.

"The gun is the private property of the Luo family, and I don't think Mr. Chu has the right to interfere." The butler's words were quite disrespectful.

Chu Wei had been in a terrible mood for several days, and today he almost reached his breaking point. After hearing what the butler said, he wanted to explode in anger.

However, the butler seemed to have seen through his intentions and blocked his way, continuing, "Boss Chu also knows that the gun was taken by A-Jing. After A-Jing came to Yuzhou, you had the most contact with him. Now that he is dead, how would I know what happened?"

Chu Wei was confused by what he was being told; all he knew was that there was truly no way to prove anything!

"It's true that Ah Jing and I had a lot of contact, but you know what we were in contact with, butler! What do you mean you don't know that he's dead now? Are you implying that I asked Ah Jing to take the gun, which led to Han Mingrui's death?"

Chu Wei had long known that the butler was not someone to be trifled with. During their first meeting, the butler had shown a strong disdain, dissatisfaction, and contempt for him and Chu Ruolin.

After spending some time together, things got relatively better.

But now it seems that it was all just for show; deep down, he just looked down on me.

Who does he think he is?

How could a butler be looked down upon by the master of the Chu family?

However, what the butler said next shocked Chu Wei even more.

"Oh, so that's the truth..." the butler said, looking as if he had just realized something.

"To be honest, Mr. Chu, if A-Jing hadn't died, I would definitely have charged him with unauthorized use of firearms. You know, which big family doesn't have guns these days? But which family would just casually take them out and use them like this? What a huge impact this has had on our Luo family! If the patriarch blames us, who will he say it to? Will he say it to the young lady? Will he say it to a thug like A-Jing?"

The butler seemed to have a million questions, and spoke rather quickly, giving Chu Wei time to react but not time to speak.

He continued, "They're definitely talking about me! What can I do? Of course, I have to find out who gave Ah Jing the audacity to take a gun... and then give the Luo family an explanation."

The butler's words made Chu Wei's already somewhat confused mind even more muddled.

Not only did he pin all the blame on himself, but he also said he wanted to settle accounts with me? Moreover, he sounded particularly aggrieved and afraid of being blamed by the head of the family.

He's never been particularly cautious or meticulous when he readily takes the blame for others.

Chu Wei felt there was no need for him to continue.

But then, the butler suddenly changed the subject: "However, for now, it's still the same as before. Ah Jing is already dead. How much responsibility can be pursued against a dead person? The Luo family isn't such an unenlightened family, so I'll explain to the patriarch, and this matter will be considered over..."

The butler had an air of detachment, as if he had taken on a lot of responsibility but didn't care, and his body seemed to be covered in a shimmering gold.

Finally, he added considerately, "Mr. Chu, please don't take it to heart anymore."

What does it mean to not take it to heart?

The butler is really good at obscuring the main point! Whether Ah Jing lives or dies is none of Chu Wei's business. What do your Luo family's rules have to do with Chu Wei? Why blame him and act like you've helped him a lot?

He had previously only noticed that the butler was difficult to get along with, arrogant, and overbearing. Now, however, his perception of him had been completely shattered, leaving him speechless.

Nowadays, it's not the Luo family facing the Han family's accusations, nor is it the Luo family that's been utterly defeated by the Han family, with corpses littering the ground. Isn't this just too easy for them to talk when they're not in the same boat?

He's a perfect example of someone who doesn't care about things that don't concern him.

"Butler, this...that's not how it is."

Chu Wei was having difficulty breathing, but he still had his senses and couldn't bring himself to have a strong, direct confrontation with the butler.

He is now facing a direct attack, and if he is attacked from two sides or from multiple directions, he will definitely not be able to withstand it.

In particular, it's not easy to find fault with what the housekeeper says; if you're not careful, you'll look like you're being petty and nitpicking.

"Um?"

The butler did not deny Chu Wei's statement, but he showed an expression that said, "Since you say that's not the case, then tell me what exactly happened, and I'll hear your opinion."

"Well, Ah Jing and I, our... and Han Mingrui's death, actually... weren't..."

Chu Wei's mind raced with thoughts, but when it came to his lips, nothing seemed quite right. He stammered for a long time but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

"Mr. Chu, please feel free to speak your mind." The butler didn't seem to care at all.
