He smiled silently, and that smile seemed to see through everything, but he didn't point it out.
Without even glancing at the door, he turned around and said in a calm, yet commanding tone, "Drive them away."
The security guard took a step forward without hesitation and shouted in a low, imposing voice:
“This is a private residence, ladies, please leave immediately.
If you continue to harass us, don't blame us for using violence! Go!"
The harsh words, coupled with the oppressive feeling brought by the security uniforms and sticks, completely shattered the two girls' last hope.
The two men were angry and scared, their faces turning pale and blue.
Under the gaze of security, he could only stamp his feet in embarrassment and resentment, and hurriedly disappear into the night.
…
Lin Huowang stood under the streetlight in the garden, made a gentlemanly "please" gesture, and said in a gentle voice: "Miss Guo, it's a cold night, let's go inside to treat the wound!"
The orange light fell on his young and handsome face, with soft contours.
Lin Huowang's attitude towards Zhou and Li just now made her realize that Mr. Xiao Lin was by no means as kind and harmless as he appeared.
He even deliberately... let himself make this choice.
Walking into the warm and bright living room, the luxurious and comfortable environment did not cause Guo Jingzhu to be too amazed - she was the daughter of the Guo family, not a poor girl who had never seen the world. Although the location of the Guo family villa was not as good as Villa No. 3, the decoration was not inferior to this British-style villa.
However, because the owner of this villa is Mr. Kobayashi, Guo Jingzhu felt a little happy in her heart when she stepped lightly on the carpet in the living room.
The servant stood by and handed over a small and exquisite medicine box.
Lin Huowang opened it himself and took out the iodine and cotton swabs with skillful movements.
He gestured for Guo Jingzhu to sit down, and he sat down on the single sofa beside her, leaning forward slightly, his posture focused and gentle.
"It's just a minor scrape, nothing serious, but it's better to disinfect it."
Lin Huowang's voice was soft, yet soothing. His eyes fell on the slightly reddened wound on Guo Jingzhu's arm with concern. "Fortunately, it's just a superficial wound."
His movements were gentle and professional. The warm touch of his fingertips came through the thin disinfectant cotton, which made Guo Jingzhu's heart beat faster involuntarily and a blush appeared on her face.
Looking closely at Lin Huowang's focused profile, his handsome nose, his slightly pursed thin lips, and the faint, cold fragrance emanating from his body, made her feel dizzy and unreal.
The huge sense of vanity and satisfaction was like the rising tide, drowning the fear and anxiety that had caused him to coldly reject the two women.
Mr. Kobayashi was able to take care of her personally and even drove away Zhou Zhishan and Li Siqi who bullied her!
This scene was enough for her to relive in her dreams a thousand times or ten thousand times.
I don’t care how the two girls will bully me and spread rumors about me when I go to school tomorrow!
In her opinion, Mr. Kobayashi at this moment belongs to her alone, and no one else can share even a little bit of him.
"Thank you...Mr. Kobayashi."
Her voice trembled slightly, with excitement and nervousness.
"It's just a small favor, you're welcome, Miss Guo."
Lin Huowang smiled gently, picked up clean gauze with tweezers and covered the wound, and then his slender fingers neatly wrapped it with medical tape to secure it.
His movements were smooth and flowing, but his eyes seemed to casually sweep across Guo Jingzhu's slightly reserved face, and he spoke as if he was just chatting:
"Miss Guo, won't your family be worried if you come out tonight?
You seem to have a cousin named Liu Rumeng!
I heard that her participation in the Miss Hong Kong pageant caused quite a stir in Hong Kong Island. Even Mr. Jin Yong wrote a personal report on Miss Liu.
Lin Huowang's question seemed like ordinary concern and chat, but when he read out the three words "Liu Rumeng", Guo Jingzhu's heart skipped a beat.
Here it comes! She knows it!
Mr. Kobayashi definitely didn't invite her for no reason. It turned out that it was related to his cousin Liu Rumeng.
She suddenly remembered her grandfather's majestic face and the heavy warning he had given her: "Remember, no matter what the occasion, if anyone asks about Mengmeng, especially if she has anything to do with the mainland...
No talking allowed!
Don’t mention a single word!
It concerns the entire Guo family!
Anyone who dares to leak this information will not only have their legs broken, but will also be completely expelled from the Guo family."
Thinking of her grandfather's sharp eyes, she subconsciously shrank her neck.
“Not bad…not bad.”
Guo Jingzhu lowered her head, not daring to look into Lin Huowang's eyes, and responded vaguely, "My cousin just came to Hong Kong Island not long ago... I don't know much about her affairs.
My family... is fine too. I, I told the servants when I left..."
She spoke incoherently, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her skirt. "My grandfather seemed... not very supportive at first..."
When talking about her grandfather's attitude, her voice was as thin as a mosquito's, and she almost instinctively avoided the core of the topic.
Lin Huowang wrapped the last bit of tape without any pause.
Even though he didn't get the answer he wanted, the gentle smile on his face remained unchanged as he continued, "Well! The Miss Hong Kong pageant, while a major event for Hong Kong Island, is still a highly publicized profession. In the eyes of the older, more conservative generation of Hong Kong's wealthy families, it's ultimately disgraceful."
Then he naturally withdrew his hand, stood up, and without asking any more questions about Liu Rumeng, pointed to the archway leading to the restaurant:
"The wound has been treated. I imagine Miss Guo is hungry too. I have prepared some light midnight snacks. I hope they suit your taste. Please."
There were indeed only a few plates of exquisite snacks on the small round table in the restaurant.
