What's more, the voice was so unhurried and gentle, like a spring breeze.
Without even thinking, Ah Bin replied, "Why don't we just get out of the Xie family and go back to the deep mountains!"
After saying that, he was suddenly awakened by the summer night breeze. He looked up at Butler Wu and broke out in a cold sweat.
Butler Wu probably didn't expect him to be so audacious, and his expression immediately turned rather unpleasant.
But he still managed to maintain the decorum of a butler, greeting the visitor respectfully and politely: "Young Master Han. May I ask who you are..."
The person who came was Luo Zhihan. He ignored Butler Wu and instead smiled and explained to Xie Li, "I'm sorry, I was tripped up and didn't have time to take you home."
The boy, dressed in all black, smiled slightly, like a spring breeze blowing through the blossoming branches in March, stunning the moonlight of a summer night.
Xie Li was momentarily stunned and said, "It's okay." She had thought he was stuck.
When Ah Bin saw the young man's appearance, which was far more noble and elegant than he had ever seen in his life, although he secretly resented Xie Li for getting involved with such a person, he also knew that he had given Xie Li something to talk about, so he hurriedly tried to make a run for it.
Just as he tried to move, a pair of hands gripped the back of his neck: "Don't move."
At that moment, Ah Bin was utterly terrified, his hair standing on end.
They were talking over here, and there was no one else in the courtyard. When did this person get close? How come he didn't notice at all?
Luo Zhihan smiled and said a few words to Xie Li before glancing indifferently at Butler Wu.
“When I read ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’ before, there was a saying that ‘a servant is too powerful and bullies his master.’ I thought that was something that only happened in ancient times. I never expected that the Xie family…” Luo Zhihan sighed, “So this is how Madam Xie managed the household.”
Butler Wu was immediately unsteady on his feet, cold sweat pouring down his forehead: "Young Master Han, you're exaggerating."
He whispered an order, "Men, throw Ah Bin out of here right now! The Xie family doesn't need servants who talk back to and insult their master like this!"
Ah Bin was stunned. He knew he had said something wrong and might be punished, but he didn't expect Butler Wu to kick him out!
That won't do! The Xie family pays their servants very high salaries and the work is very easy. Where else can he find such a good job?
Moreover, the servant who was fired and kicked out by the Xie family had his reputation completely ruined in the elite circles of Linjiang City, and no wealthy family would hire him!
Ah Bin was stunned for a long time. He first pleaded with Butler Wu, but when Butler Wu was unmoved, he glared at Xie Li fiercely and said, "You plague god, you jinx!"
Immediately afterward, taking advantage of the moment when the person holding him wasn't paying attention, he broke free and rushed into the house, crying out, "Miss Belle, please save me!"
In his eyes, Jiang Baili was elegant, intellectual, generous, and kind-hearted; he would never stand idly by.
Xie Li: "..."
She could understand the maid's choice; Jiang Baili was indeed quite soft-hearted, but...
She kindly advised, "You'd better not go see your cousin..."
The more she said that, the harder Ah Bin tried to squeeze into the house, eventually breaking down the door.
Inside the magnificent house stood people with bewildered expressions. Ding Huizhu was not there, but Xie Yunqiu and Jiang Baili were.
When Ah Bin saw Jiang Baili standing there looking blank, he was overjoyed. "Miss Baili!..."
However, as soon as he uttered the words, Xie Yunqiu's face darkened, and he shouted sternly, "Butler, fire this man and get him out of here!"
