C7 That's What You Promised Last Time

At the same time, Lu Lijue returned to his study from Xia Zhinan's room. He rubbed his glabella and sat on his wide sofa chair.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw the photo in front of him.

In the photo, there was a girl wearing a pink princess dress and a birthday hat. She was smiling brightly. It was Xia Zhinan.

He had seen her when she was four years old. At that time, he was twelve years old.

Suddenly, the cute and sweet four-year-old girl had grown into a rebellious girl who was willful and undisciplined.

"Kowtow - -"

Someone knocked on the door of the study room. Zhang Yun stood at the door and looked at Lu Lijue anxiously.

"Come in."

Lu Lijue carefully put the photo into the thick notebook, then carefully put it into the main drawer of his desk and locked it.

"Young Master Jue, there is movement from Lu Residence. The second young master had recently been buying up the small shops nearby and secretly acquired some shares of big companies. The Fourth Young Miss has been very close to the Su Clan's Eldest Young Master recently, and both parties seem to want to form an alliance. Perhaps they want to form a marriage alliance..."

Zhang Yun saw that his master was only leaning against the chair with his eyes closed, his fingers slowly and rhythmically tapping on the table. There was no anxious and impatient expression on his face.

His heart calmed down a little.

"Young Master Jue, look..."

"If I let them live for a few more days, what do you think will happen?"

Zhang Yun was stunned, then frowned and said, "Is it because of Miss Zhinan? Things in the main residence could not be delayed. The second young master and the fourth young lady moved very quickly. They had already drawn the attention of the madame. If the madame went deep into the matter, Young Master Jue, what you did before... "

"Then what about her?" The lazy man who was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were deep and empty as he stared blankly at the person standing respectfully in front of the desk.

Zhang Yun was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He lowered his head and said, "Young Master Jue, we will look after Miss Zhinan this time..."

"You promised me the same thing last time."

Zhang Yun did not dare to say anything this time. Seven days ago, Lu Lijue had an emergency meeting outside the city. Coincidentally, Xia Zhinan was also quite obedient during those few days. He took the initiative to tell Mistress that he would take good care of Xia Zhinan. He let Lu Lijue go out to work in peace.

Unexpectedly, when that woman knew that Lu Lijue had left, she immediately started courting death. Early in the morning, she started to drug the apartment, causing a large number of people in the apartment to suffer along with her. The last thing she did not pay attention to was to find an opportunity for her. She almost ran out of the apartment.

Luckily, Lu Lijue had installed a locator on the woman. Before he boarded the plane, he found that something was wrong. Without saying anything else, he turned around and went back to the apartment. Otherwise...

He had no way to imagine that she was not by his side.

"Let me think about it for a few more days."

After saying that, Lu Lijue stood up and walked out of the study. He walked to the monitoring room. Two people were sitting in the monitoring room. When they saw Lu Lijue come in, they quickly stood up and greeted him.

Lu Lijue nodded slightly and went to the monitoring page to take a look. When he found out that the girl was willing to eat, he even chatted with the little maid who was about the same age as him with a smile. He felt a little suspicious after calming down.

He called the butler of the apartment, Mrs Zhang, and pointed at the little maid on the monitor and asked, "Is she new here?"

Mrs Zhang nodded her head and said, "Young Master, her name is Lo Xun. She just got on duty today. She is 18 years old this year and is still in school because the family urgently needs money. I saw that she is a smart girl. In addition, she was about the same age as Miss Zhinan, so the two of them might have something to talk about. It's also good to relieve Miss Zhinan of her boredom, so I asked her to send food to the Miss's room. "

Lu Lijue's bottomless gaze flickered for a moment, then he stood up and thought for a while before saying, "Pay attention to her every move."
