Xie Yunqiu was both shocked and furious. She had brought Jiang Baili along to see Xie Li make a fool of himself, but who knew that this maid was so clueless and kept pleading with Jiang Baili, only dragging Jiang Baili down with her.
If someone with ulterior motives were to spread a few more rumors, would Jiang Baili's reputation be ruined?
Xie Yunqiu was so angry that her head was throbbing. Her image as a noblewoman was completely gone. She pointed at several servants and said, "Hurry up and cover his mouth!"
As soon as Xie Yunqiu spoke, the servants swarmed forward, tackled Abin to the ground, and dislocated his jaw.
Ah Bin's mouth was agape, drool trickling from the corner of his mouth, yet he looked at Jiang Baili with pleading eyes.
A flash of disgust crossed Jiang Baili's eyes. She turned her face away, looking aggrieved and innocent at Xie Yunqiu, and said, "Mom, how could he do this!"
Ah Bin was completely stunned and gave up struggling. He was subdued by the servants and thrown out.
After all that commotion, Xie Li lost her enthusiasm and felt a bit sleepy.
Luo Zhihan: "Let me take you inside."
Butler Wu didn't dare to stop them this time; he simply bowed and stood aside.
Luo Zhihan paused as she passed by him, "Butler."
In that instant, Butler Wu's knees buckled, and he almost knelt down.
"I invited Xie Li to have a meal next door to celebrate her admission to Linjiang No. 1 Middle School, and I also sent someone over with a gift to explain the situation. Why does Madam Xie want to punish Xie Li for this?"
Butler Wu dared not respond to these words, and even more cold sweat poured down his forehead.
At the time, Ding Huizhu was furious. When he heard that the neighbor had sent a gift, he did not come to entertain them in person, but only sent his deputy to receive them. Little did he know that the young master of the Luo family was involved.
If he had known Luo Zhihan was there, he wouldn't have dared to say that even if he had a hundred lives!
However, Luo Zhihan's smile was gentle and polite, but his words were like knives.
"If I should be punished just because I had a meal with you, then it's my fault." Luo Zhihan glanced over indifferently. "I should go and apologize to Madam Xie in person."
"No need," Xie Li instinctively said, not wanting Luo Zhihan to confront Ding Huizhu.
She felt that Ding Huizhu was somewhat unreasonable, while Luo Zhihan was too gentle and reasonable; she was afraid that they might be bullied.
"Actually, I don't think it's a big deal. I can handle it myself," Xie Li said, looking up at the villa's exterior wall. "I made sure to leave the windows open when I left..."
Upon hearing this, Butler Wu's brow twitched slightly.
He couldn't help but recall the day of the entrance exam for Linjiang No. 1 High School, when he had locked the door from the inside, yet Xie Li miraculously appeared downstairs...
Afterwards, he personally went up to open the door and released Zhang Ma, who was locked in Xie Li's room.
window……
Butler Wu felt that he seemed to have understood Xie Li's subtext: the window was open, so she wasn't afraid of being locked out and could choose to go out through the window.
Once this absurd idea came to mind, it was like a balloon floating on water, constantly rising and never being able to be pushed down.
"What will happen if the window is left open?" Butler Wu finally couldn't help but ask, with restraint and politeness.
Xie Li: "Just climb up. Even if my window is closed, other people's windows are always open. The villa isn't very tall, it's easy to climb."
After a pause, Xie Li realized that it was Butler Wu who had just asked him the question. Thinking of Butler Wu's usual tuxedo-wearing and rigid manner, he quickly added a sentence.
"Don't worry, I'll be quick, it'll only take a second or two. I definitely won't let anyone see it and think the Xie family is ill-mannered or unseemly."
