Chapter 769 Protecting You



I was suddenly stunned. Such conditions were beyond my expectations.

Lu Zhiyuan stared at me with deep affection, his tone still filled with fear: "I don't want you to make any mistakes, and I don't want to go through the same fear as today again. I'm afraid that if I'm too late, I'll see you get hurt."

I stared at him blankly, and the coldness in my heart seemed to melt away bit by bit.

What's wrong with me?

Did his few words of concern move me again?

I avoided his gaze and pretended to be indifferent: "I understand. I agree to your terms."

Then I told Li Tao: "Drive, let's go back."

The car gradually moved away. Through the rearview mirror, I saw Lu Zhiyuan standing there, his figure getting smaller and smaller.

A complex emotion surged in my heart. I was touched by his concern and advice, but I couldn't let go of the past hurts.

The two emotions were pulling at each other, and I pinched my eyebrows tiredly.

Li Tao asked with concern, "Miss, are you okay? Just before I got in the car, I noticed that you didn't look well. Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"I'm fine, just go home and don't let my mother worry."

I know that my emotional fluctuations are caused by the sequelae. As long as I stay away from Lu Zhiyuan and stop thinking about everything related to him, I won’t feel so uncomfortable.

When he returned to Ming's house, Mingsi had already instructed the kitchen to prepare a large table of sumptuous dishes.

Seeing me come back, Mingsi's smile deepened: "Xiaoshan, Mom has developed a new dish today, come and try it!"

"good."

It seems that Mingyuan didn't tell Mingsi what happened today, which made me feel relieved.

During dinner, Mingyuan came down from upstairs slowly and sat opposite me.

I smiled at him ingratiatingly and put a chicken drumstick into his bowl: "Uncle, eat more to replenish your body."

Mingyuan snorted proudly and accepted my kindness with peace of mind.

Mingsi looked at me suspiciously: "What's wrong with you today? You're actually trying to please your uncle?"

In Mingsi's eyes, Mingyuan and I usually bicker with each other, so it's rare for us to be so harmonious.

I covered my guilty conscience with a smile and evaded the question, "It's because Huake has a lot of work to do on its new project lately! I'm trying to please my uncle and ask him to help me."

Mingsi chuckled fondly and nagged Mingyuan for me: "Mingyuan, when you have nothing to do, please help Xiaoshan. She is running the company by herself and is under a lot of pressure."

"Yeah." Mingyuan responded perfunctorily, turned around and made a "yeah" gesture to me.

I felt a little nervous and lowered my head, pretending not to see it.

He was reminding me that I already owed him two favors.

After dinner, I knocked on the study door.

After getting permission, I pushed the door open and walked in, closing and locking the door to prevent Mingsi from coming in suddenly.

Mingyuan was clutching his computer, looking up something, so I got straight to the point: "Miao Zhi... No, that's not right. Where's Lu Jiaying? How did she handle it?"

"Don't worry, she's in a very secret and safe place. I've even assigned bodyguards to guard her. Even if she has incredible abilities, she won't be able to escape from there."

Mingyuan answered confidently, "Let's lock her up for a few days. I've already contacted Interpol and got some information."

"What?" I asked suspiciously.

Mingyuan's expression turned serious.

"There's a massive organization behind Miao Zhi, and the boss of this organization is a man using the pseudonym 'Mr.'. If you can't catch this boss behind the scenes, you'll still be in danger."
