The housekeeper realized that she clearly didn't intend to let him off easily. After hesitating for a while, he could only reply according to what Luo Jinxiu had said before.
"I'm sorry, Miss. I underestimated Qin Yiheng. I shouldn't have urged you to deal with him. Such... petty tricks wouldn't have been able to harm him in the slightest." A sincere look of remorse appeared on his face.
Luo Jinxiu didn't care how much the housekeeper regretted his actions.
Through these interactions, she could sense that the butler was no ordinary person; his outward appearances were merely a facade.
"I am the young lady of the Luo family, and you are the housekeeper of the Luo family. You should know that even if you betray the Luo family, I will never betray the Luo family," Luo Jinxiu suddenly said cryptically.
"That's natural..."
The housekeeper wasn't quite sure why she was suddenly saying all this, but for now, she could only listen.
Luo Jinxiu was satisfied and nodded, saying, "It's best that you understand. Actually, I already had a plan, but because you were too anxious, I had to implement yours first. Now, I have to change my plan because of this unexpected event."
At this point, the butler suddenly understood what Luo Jinxiu's purpose was.
As the one who spearheaded the attack, he failed, so he has no right to criticize Luo Jinxiu's actions.
Because anything he says is worthless.
"So, what are the young lady's plans?" the butler asked tentatively.
Given his current awkward situation, Luo Jinxiu might not even bother to give him a detailed explanation. Sure enough, Luo Jinxiu didn't even bother to answer the question.
"After a while, I will begin my plan, and I hope that before and during that time, there will be no further changes."
Luo Jinxiu's answer seemed somewhat irrelevant, but she was actually warning the butler not to interfere in the slightest.
She only talked about the "plan," but what exactly did the plan include? How would it be implemented? How long would it take? Luo Jinxiu had no intention of saying anything.
Moreover, the butler couldn't ask. If he did, Luo Jinxiu could shut him up with a simple, "Tell you? Are you just waiting for me to ruin it again?"
The housekeeper was unwilling to make a fool of himself.
Luo Jinxiu waited for a while and found that the housekeeper didn't say anything more. She made no attempt to hide her smugness and held her chin high.
"Then, I wish you all the best, Miss..." the butler said with a forced smile.
This time, he really made a mistake. He never expected to be outmaneuvered by Luo Jinxiu. Although he had Luo Heshan's support, even Luo Heshan could not openly defy Luo Jinxiu.
After all, they all came here with the same goal in the beginning.
Even now, Luo Jinxiu says that she is going to deal with Qin Yiheng, and there is no evidence to refute this.
Therefore, no matter what Luo Jinxiu wants to do this time, it will be difficult for him to get involved.
"Alright, that's all I came here to talk to you about." With that, Luo Jinxiu prepared to leave.
The housekeeper really wished she would leave as soon as possible, so she wouldn't have to show off in front of him anymore.
"That's right!"
Luo Jinxiu had already reached the door when she suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to face the butler.
For no apparent reason, the butler's heart jumped.
Luo Jinxiu's expression remained sarcastic as she asked cryptically, "Butler, you don't have any plans for the future, do you? Won't they conflict with mine?"
This is clearly an attempt to provoke someone on purpose.
Luo Jinxiu knew perfectly well that even if the butler had a plan, he couldn't bring it up now because Luo Jinxiu would no longer cooperate with him.
He himself was also a little worried. If he failed again, there was no guarantee that Luohe Mountain would find out and start to doubt his abilities.
Someone as intelligent as Qin Yiheng would definitely have his sights set on him. If he were to act rashly, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, from any perspective, he has no further plans.
But Luo Jinxiu still asked that question, and with that same expression and tone.
"No, no." The butler's expression was already very awkward, and he couldn't hold back any longer. "Since Miss has already made up her mind, then we will follow Miss's lead. If there is anything Miss needs me to do, please just give the order."
He believed that what he said was perfectly reasonable and humble enough.
But he truly didn't understand what kind of person Luo Jinxiu was.
Luo Jinxiu wouldn't kick someone when they're down for no reason, but if anyone did anything to harm her, she would definitely retaliate, and the means of retaliation would be...
"I have no instructions. Just mind your own business."
After exhaling her last breath, Luo Jinxiu left with her head held high.
Watching her departing figure, the butler's fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly.
Luo Jinxiu's personality is too much. If she falls into my hands one day, I will definitely repay her tenfold!
Let's see what tricks she can pull to deal with Qin Yiheng. If in the end she's in a worse situation than I am now, that would be hilarious.
Thinking about this, the butler's mood finally improved.
However, how could Luo Jinxiu not know such thoughts?
The housekeeper never imagined that her so-called "plan" was actually a trip to Qing Lingfeng.
After returning to her apartment, Luo Jinxiu called Qin Yiheng and asked him to come over. Qin Yiheng arrived quickly and was immediately confronted with a document slapped in the face.
"This is my plan for the trip to Qingling Peak. Do you see if there's anything I need to add?" Luo Jinxiu said directly.
She had been working on this plan for a long time and felt that she didn't need to add anything, so she was very confident when she presented it to Qin Yiheng. She only asked him a few questions.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yiheng pushed the document back without even looking at it.
"Huh?" Luo Jinxiu looked at him, puzzled.
"Plans can't keep up with changes, I don't need to look at these," Qin Yiheng said softly.
What he said was certainly not without reason, but it was a waste of Luo Jinxiu's efforts. Luo Jinxiu was not happy, and in front of Qin Yiheng, she did not want to hide her emotions, so she simply wore them all on her face.
Even a blind man could see it, let alone Qin Yiheng.
“Qingling Peak cannot be found on the map. I suspect it may be suppressed by some kind of formation, making it difficult for ordinary people to see. Such places are highly unpredictable, and it’s not something you can do perfectly just by making a plan.”
However, Qin Yiheng either saw through it and didn't want to pay attention, or he was even more blind than a blind man, and he still said things that displeased Luo Jinxiu.
"Qin Yiheng! What do you mean?" Luo Jinxiu slammed her hand on the table and stood up.
