Her beauty was fresh and elegant with a hint of feminine charm.

She tossed her phone aside, fiddling with the broken nail on her finger. She used a tissue to wipe away the dried blood clot, muttering softly to herself.

"Qi Ce and Old Master Huo are both looking for you, Fu Yan. I think there's nowhere you can hide!"

At half past noon, Li Qin's car arrived at the manor in Jining Mansion.

Today is the weekend after the New Year's Day holiday.

The security guard let her car pass immediately upon seeing it.

The driver parked the car, and through the window she saw Cao Yuan leading a group of bodyguards into five different vehicles. They left from the side door with an impressive show of force.

"What's wrong" she asked the butler, Lao Luo, pretending to be concerned as she opened the car door.

Luo Shu's attitude was respectful but not servile, "I only manage the affairs of the estate, Mr. Huo's other matters I don't concern myself with. If Miss Li wants to know, she can ask Mr. Huo personally."

Li Qin smiled, "I was just casually asking, you don't have to take it to heart."

Uncle Luo smiled and nodded, calling out to a maid coming down the stairs.

"I'll brew some flower tea that Miss Li likes."

The maid seemed to have been startled, she shivered and almost dropped the plate in her hand, “Yes.”

"You're being too rash," Lao Shu said seriously.

The servant's eyes flared red as he raised his head.

"Butler Luo, Mr. Huo..."

Li Qin glanced at the dishes on the plate, a mess, like they had been thrown to the ground and hastily picked up.

"Azhen hasn't eaten anything"

The servant nodded cautiously and said, "Mr. Huo is in a very bad mood, we dare not approach him."

Luo Shu frowned, "Alright, go and brew some flower tea."

"Yes." The maid scurried away.

As soon as Li Qin entered the living room, she noticed something was amiss. The servants were acting nervously, as if something terrible had happened.

She had a guess in her mind, probably because Huo Mingzheng's emotions were fluctuating greatly now, and he was completely different from his usual self. This made them feel afraid.

"Uncle Luo, you go about your business. I'll go upstairs to see Zheng."

Lao Shu's face was filled with embarrassment, "Mr. Huo said that he won't see anyone these days. You shouldn't go up there."

Li Qin asked Luo Shu with a good temper, "Luo Shu, can't I even see you"

Luo Shu insisted, "If you really must see him, let me go upstairs and ask Mr. Huo first."

"Uncle Luo," Li Qin leaned sideways to face Luo Butler, "you probably already know what I am to Aze. Grandmaster Huo has agreed to our marriage, and I'm not an outsider. I see no need to report to you if Aze doesn't."

"Miss Li, this is Mr. Huo's private residence, not the Huo Family Manor. Here, I only listen to Mr. Huo. If he says he doesn't want to see you, I have a responsibility to stop anyone."

Faced with Luo Guanjia's unyielding attitude, Li Qin's face darkened slightly, her lips pursed into a thin line.

At that moment, a sound of a door being forcefully opened came from upstairs.

Cao Fang hurried down the stairs, "Luo Butler..."

The moment I saw Li Qin, it was like grasping a life-saving straw.

He ran to Li Qin's face, and said solemnly: "Miss Li, you are here just in time, please go upstairs and have a look at Mr. Huo!"ut amongst the Caucasians.
