Xiao Fan did not know how to explain it. Anyway, this was not a small matter. It was not easy for the madam to send those people away, but the master invited them back. She did not know what the master was thinking. Perhaps the madam did not make it clear to him, so it ended up like this.
Xiao Fan hesitated for a moment before she quickly said,”Madam, the master has sent someone to bring Xiao Lan back.”
When Ming Liuyi heard this, she was a little confused.
‘I’d just sent her away, but Yao Zizhou had someone bring her back? Was it because I didn’t explain it clearly to him? What was the point anyway? She was outed as one of Yao Ziyang’s lackeys. Does he not believe me?
Ming Liuyi looked at Xiao Fan and asked,”Why did he bring her back?”
Xiao Fan did not know why the master was doing this. It was clearly Xiao Lan who had caused harm, but he still summoned her back.
‘It must be because Madam had not explained things clearly to Master. Otherwise, this wouldn’t happen. It seems that Madam doesn’t know what’s going on either. We have to take things one step at a time.’
Xiao Fan said anxiously to the confused Ming Liuyi,”Madam, you should hurry downstairs.”
Ming Liuyi followed Xiao Fan downstairs and saw Yao Zizhou sitting in his wheelchair. Although he had regained consciousness not long ago, he could actually sit upright. Ming Liuyi saw that Yao Zizhou’s appearance was even more alluring after he had awoken from his coma. Although his eyes were closed, he was like an exquisite statue that held a malevolent spirit inside. Even if he did not say a word, she could feel the imposing aura coming from Yao Zizhou’s body—it was hard to ignore.
Xiao Lan also had not expected Yao Zizhou to wake up one day, but she was not afraid. She even thought that since Yao Ziyang could blatantly assign her here, she had nothing to fear. Xiao Lan had never taken Yao Zizhou and Ming Liuyi seriously, nor had she been polite to either of them before. And yet, she did not expect to be dragged back here again.
From the beginning until now, Yao Zizhou did not say a word, but Xiao Lan felt like her heart was about to beat out of her chest. First, she was scared, then she gritted her teeth and wanted to fight to the death. She pounced on Yao Zizhou, but was stopped by the bodyguards. Then, she began to make a scene and rolled around until she knelt down and begged for mercy.
“Please, please, let me go just this once! Those people forced me to do this. I’m just a servant.”
Listening to Xiao Lan’s harsh voice, Yao Zizhou got a little ticked off. Since she had done something wrong, she had to pay the price. If she was let go just because she cried, then what reputation would he carry in front of others in the future?
Yao Zizhou was even more concerned that the crying would disturb Ming Liuyi’s rest, so he spoke coldly, “Make her shut up. The madam must not be disturbed.”
When the bodyguards heard this, they immediately stuffed a cloth into Xiao Lan’s mouth so that she could not make a sound. After crying for a long time, Xiao Lan knelt on the ground powerlessly. Her hair was a little messy, and she was in a sorry-looking state.
When Ming Liuyi came downstairs and saw Xiao Lan’s state, she became frightened and immediately ran to Yao Zizhou’s side.
Yao Zizhou felt Ming Liuyi running to his side, and felt less tense. Xiao Lan stared at Ming Liuyi as if she was looking at her savior, and immediately crawled to her feet. She wanted to say something, but she forgot that her mouth was blocked, so she could only make muffled sounds.
Ming Liuyi could not understand a word, so she said, “Take it out and let her speak.”
The bodyguard frowned. The master was the one who asked him to silence her. If he took it out, would the master be angry? However, when he remembered that the master had told him that she should not to disturb the madam’s rest, it was obvious that he was very concerned about her. If he did not listen to the madam, the consequences might be even more serious.
The bodyguard stepped forward to remove the cloth from Xiao Lan’s mouth, and Xiao Lan immediately cried out,”Madam, Madam, save me!”
For a moment, the house was filled with Xiao Lan’s screams. Ming Liuyi was shocked by Xiao Lan’s screams and quickly asked the bodyguards to muffle Xiao Lan’s mouth again. Ming Liuyi herself was not a saint. Xiao Lan took advantage of her position, bullied people, and even tried to poison Yao Zizhou. She deserved this. What right did she have to beg Ming Liuyi for mercy?
Ming Liuyi took a step back and yanked the hem of her clothes from Xiao Lan’s clutches. If Xiao Lan had realized her wrongdoing at the time, she would not have ended up like this. All of this was her own undoing, and she did not deserve to be pitied. Ming Liuyi tugged on Yao Zizhou’s clothes and whispered.
“I don’t care about this. You can deal with her however you want.”
