Upon hearing these words, Su Ningyan’s face darkened.
Those online rumors were completely unreliable.
Yes, the internet says Zhuo Junyue is a pervert, and that’s definitely not a slander against him, even the rumors on the internet have him pegged as even worse.
The people in the room, seeing Su Ningyan’s face turn ugly, all had one thought in their minds – Zhuo Junyue must indeed be a pervert.
Su Guohua suppressed a gasp, “Ningyan, serve Young Master Zhuo well in the Zhuo Family, and starting next term, I’ll give Xiao Jie an extra five hundred yuan for living expenses each month.”
Zhang Juan was about to say, why should she increase the living expenses for that little punk?
She had been lenient enough not to send those two burdens to the orphanage after housing them for so long.
However, seeing the look Su Guohua gave her, she suppressed her anger.
Su Guohua had received so much money from the Zhuo Family, and now that the Su Family’s business was on the upswing, they absolutely could not offend the Zhuo Family.
“Ningyan, you should behave well at the Zhuo Family.
Xiao Jie is still my son after all, and I wouldn’t treat him unfairly.
You can stay at the Zhuo Family without worries.
If you offend the Zhuo Family, even Xiao Jie would be doomed, let alone us.”
Fearing that she wouldn’t listen, Su Guohua added a few more words, clearly stating that the Zhuo Family was not to be offended.
“I understand, just make sure this matter is kept from Xiao Jie.”
Su Ningyan did not say anything more, anyway, she knew very well that she could never experience any familial love from them.
At Su Guohua’s hint, Zhang Juan prepared a lavish dinner.
Compared to the usual plain meals, Su Ningyan felt like she was eating her last meal.
After dinner, Su Ningyan’s phone in her pocket started vibrating.
No question about it, besides Zhuo Junyue, no one else would call her.
Su Ningyan made an excuse to go to the restroom to answer the call.
Just as she answered it, she heard Zhuo Junyue’s unsatisfied voice, “Why did it take you so long to answer the call?”
“I was having dinner and didn’t hear it, Uncle, I’ll be back in a little while.”
Before Zhuo Junyue could respond, Su Ningyan hurriedly explained, fearing Zhuo Junyue would get angry.
“The driver will be there in ten minutes.” Having said that, Zhuo Junyue didn’t waste any more words and simply hung up the call.
Arriving in ten minutes?
Su Ningyan wiped off her cold sweat, she absolutely couldn’t let Xiao Jie see this.
She had no choice but to seek help from Su Guohua to distract Su Shijie for a while.
Su Ningyan found that her ability to lie had improved considerably ever since she had started visiting Zhuo Family for good luck.
Just now, she had told Su Shijie that she was going to a friend’s house.
Sitting in the luxury car, watching as they drove further away from the Su Family’s home.
She didn’t have much affection for the Su Family, the only one she cared about was her younger brother, Su Shijie.
Over an hour later, Su Ningyan returned to the Zhuo Family’s hillside manor.
Mr.
Lin, upon seeing her return, looked as though he had seen a lifesaver, “Miss Su, it’s just in time.
Young Master barely had anything for dinner.”
Su Ningyan frowned, “Why didn’t he eat?
Didn’t anyone feed him?”
Mr.
Lin couldn’t help but wipe his cold sweat, he did order the servants to feed him, but Young Master Zhuo threw a temper tantrum and chased them all away.
Upon hearing Mr.
Lin’s explanation, Su Ningyan thought, was Zhuo Junyue waiting to starve to death if she didn’t come back?
“Uncle Lin, give me the food.”
“Alright, it’s already prepared, just waiting for you to come back.” Mr.
Lin hurried to instruct the servants to bring out another portion of the prepared meal.
Su Ningyan carried the food upstairs.
She opened the door to find the room in complete disarray.
Zhuo Junyue sat in his wheelchair, looking so miserable that Su Ningyan felt a twinge of discomfort in her heart.
The doctor had said that the blood clot in Zhuo Junyue’s brain not only affected his vision but also frequently caused Zhuo Junyue to have headaches.
As soon as she walked in, she heard Zhuo Junyue barking in a cold tone, “Get out!
Didn’t I say no one was allowed in?”
