Chapter 601: Blood Clan Loyal Butler vs. Godly Lady 30
Lu Zhiyao's expression became gentle:
"I'll sleep on the sofa. You should get some rest early. I'll send someone to take you back tomorrow."
Quan Jiu agreed immediately and got into bed.
Lu Zhiyao took out a new quilt from the cabinet and put it on the sofa.
The two of them closed their eyes, each with their own thoughts. After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhiyao's cell phone on the table suddenly rang.
The man's first reaction was to look at the person on the bed. After finding that Quan Jiu was not woken up, he glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, quickly hung up the call, and got up and went out.
The moment the bedroom door closed gently, the woman lying on the bed slowly opened her eyes.
…
Lu Zhiyao came to the public balcony on the second floor, stood by the fence, looked at the missed call, and called back.
The person on the other end seemed to have expected him to call back and answered the call very quickly.
"So far away."
The man's mellow and low-pitched voice came through the screen.
Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes: "Yeah."
"I heard about what happened tonight."
Lu Zhiyao did not show any surprise.
The person on the other side spoke again: "If you stay with her, it will only put her in more danger."
Lu Zhiyao put one hand in his pocket and held the receiver with the other. The screen emitted a faint fluorescence in the dark.
"Chris, I tagged her."
Suddenly, there was a sound of porcelain falling to the ground from the opposite side, as if something was knocked over, and the servant's panicked apology was heard.
"Chief Chris, do you need me to pour you another cup of coffee?"
It's seven in the morning UK time.
Chris stared at the broken teacup and coffee stains on the ground, his expression revealing a complexity that others couldn't understand:
"No need, just clean up and leave."
After the servant left, there was silence on the phone.
Chris: "You know exactly why I sent her away from the vampire clan."
Lu Zhiyao: "Some things can't be avoided. Even if I'm not here tonight, she will still meet Lu Zewen."
Chris pinched his brows and asked, "So why did he appear in China?"
Ever since Lu Zewen kidnapped Little Hill, he has found a lot of tasks for Lu Zewen, all of which were intended to drive him back to England.
The blood of gods is pure and sacred, and cannot tolerate any stain. He thought that sending her away from the blood clan could save her life, but he didn't expect that in the end, she was marked by Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao: "Maybe this is fate."
Among the four brothers, only Lu Zewen is a freak. His congenital defects make him different from ordinary people. Even when facing his brothers, he is distant and indifferent, and will not be overly affectionate, let alone any brotherly love.
"You keep a close eye on him. After I finish the things at hand, I will fly to China in person." Chris made the decision.
Lu Zhiyao: “Yeah.”
He was about to hang up the phone, but the person on the other end spoke first.
"Zhiyao, I hope you won't mark her again before I arrive in China."
Lu Zhiyao frowned: "Why?"
Chris's tone was inexplicably heavy:
"Things are a bit complicated. I'm just guessing. Anyway, this is for Hill's own good. Just listen to me."
When Lu Zhiyao heard that it was for Quan Jiu's sake, he agreed without hesitation. The man hung up the phone, walked into the hotel corridor, entered the password and returned to the room.
The woman on the bed had her eyes closed and her sleeping position had not changed.
Lu Zhiyao came to her bed and squatted down with a tender look in his eyes.
Quan Jiu could feel a burning gaze lingering on her face for a long time.
In the end, Lu Zhiyao just raised his hand to tidy up the loose hair on her cheek.
The door slammed again.
Silence returned to the bedroom.
Quan Jiu opened his eyes, sat up, turned on the light, and found that the clothes and coat that Lu Zhiyao had placed on the armrest of the sofa were also missing.
"I left without even telling you."
She muttered softly, recited a mantra, and disappeared from the spot.
………
The next day, at seven in the morning.
Downstairs in the hotel, the sounds of police sirens and ambulance sirens rang out.
Quan Jiu got up slowly, washed up, went to the buffet breakfast restaurant, and found a seat to sit down.
There were two people sitting at the next table, looking uneasy and talking in low voices.
"Are you sure all our information has been destroyed?"
"What are you afraid of? The affairs of the vampire clan will never be exposed. There are people above us who are responsible for it. It's not our turn to be nervous."
"Oh, that's true. I just didn't expect such a big auction house to have such trouble. Isn't it said that Boss Mei has someone behind him? How come he got wiped out this time..."
The person who was speaking added sugar cubes to his coffee cup with a worried look on his face. He suddenly raised his head and met Quan Jiu's gentle and harmless green eyes.
Quan Jiu had a nonchalant smile on his face and looked at him leisurely.
She had seen these two people at the auction last night.
The man looked as if he had seen a ghost. The sugar packet in his hand tilted and missed the rim of the cup, and all the sugar spilled onto the table.
"Hey, what are you doing? It's all spilled." The companion kindly reminded.
The man came to his senses and pointed in the direction of Quan Jiu. His companions looked in the direction of his finger and were also surprised.
The face that appeared on the auction table last night was now staring at them with a smile. The beautiful woman's smile was obviously a touching scene, but when considering that the auction house was wiped out, Quan Jiu also became mysterious and weird.
When Quan Jiu returned home, Lu Zhiyao had just received a call from her subordinate, telling her that the tenant had checked out and she was a step too late.
"Master, do you need me to have someone check Miss Hill's whereabouts?"
Lu Zhiyao hung up the phone: "No need."
Quan Jiu entered the password and entered the villa. She was still wearing the clothes she wore last night.
Lu Zhiyao returned to being the dutiful butler he once was, his eyebrows lowered and his eyes subdued. It was completely invisible that he had any interaction with her last night. He said in a businesslike manner:
"Miss, you didn't come home last night, and the master was very worried about you."
Quan Jiu curled her red lips slightly and watched him act.
She kicked off her red high heels, threw her handbag into his arms, and ordered:
"Carry it for me."
Lu Zhiyao took out the black and white ladies' handbag from his arms and held it respectfully in his hands.
Quan Jiu changed into slippers and walked into the bedroom, with Lu Zhiyao following behind him carrying a bag.
After taking two steps, the woman who was walking in front suddenly stopped.
"Butler Lu, did you go out last night?"
Lu Zhiyao paused for a moment as he met her bright eyes. For a moment, he wondered if he had been exposed.
Adjusting his facial expression, Lu Zhiyao looked at her calmly: "Why do you ask that, Miss?"
Quan Jiu turned around and looked up at him with a half-smile:
"As a master, shouldn't you occasionally care about your subordinates?"
Lu Zhiyao: “…”
As she got closer, the fragrance from her body came with her.
Quan Jiu suddenly reached out and grabbed Lu Zhiyao's collar.
The man's pupils shrank slightly, and various ways of coping after being exposed flashed through his mind, but his face became more calm and composed.
Quan Jiu suddenly chuckled and flicked his collar.
"Butler Lu, next time you go out and have fun, remember to destroy the evidence."
