Chapter 76 Arriving At Zhu Family’s Place.
"If I want to do something bad, can you resist it?"
"I just didn't like you drooling so leisurely over my bed."
Feeling Su Chen's serious tone, Lou Rouer realised that she was quick to jump to a conclusion.
'Yes, with such strong maids around him, even if I put up a fight, can I resist it?'
"Why didn't you come here last night?"
"After so much courage, I waited for you in this shameless dress, but you never showed up?"
Lou Rouer had grievances written all over her eyes.
Her image was no different than a little woman throwing a tantrum.
She didn't believe Su Chen would put her in the torture room like Zhu Qing, whom she had already met the day before.
Looking at her, Su Chen was a little puzzled.
'What's with her?'
'I knew before she became a policewoman, she used to have a dancing hobby. Is she even more eager than me to show her dance?'
'As expected of a tsundere!'
'Even though she does not want to perform before me, she still wants to get my recognition by showing her enchanting dance steps….a hypocrite!'
'Otherwise, why would she wait so obediently in this dress and pout as soon as she woke up?'
"There were some issues last night, and I think even today I won't be able to see your graceful dance!"
-Su Chen sighed like he had lost a great opportunity.
"Why?"
Lou Rouer also asked.
She recalled that in the end, she did sign an agreement with Su Chen. He will provide her with a safe place to stay and eat while she performs her dance every evening in his favourite dress.
Even though it was embarrassing, it was a fact that she agreed to this arrangement. Her righteousness didn't allow her to break the agreement, or she would simply become a free-loader.
"Today, I have to accompany Zhu Qing to her home."
"Oh, so it will be late by the time you return?"
Lou Rouer quickly understood.
"No, I should come back by 1 pm before lunch."
"Once I return, I will take you to a place."
"I don't think you will have any guts left to dance once we return later tonight."
-Su Chen spoke like it was matter-of-fact.
"Hmmmph? I won't have any guts left?"
"You don't have to worry. As long as you don't take me to those notorious bars and clubs, I won't be affected", Lou Rouer snorted.
"Moreover, I feel bored staying here. It's good to go out."
"Good, be ready by the time I come back!"
-After hearing her affirmation, Su Chen went to the cupboard and took out his clothes, then left the room to take a bath in some room downstairs, leaving her alone.
Lou Rouer was lost in her thoughts.
She has a vague feeling that this small outing with Su Chen won't be that simple, but how could her bold personality allow her to refuse when Su Chen so blatantly provoked her?
—--x—-----x—--
After getting ready and eating a healthy breakfast, Su Chen, Zhu Qing, and his maid Catlynn left the villa and arrived at the mountain where the martial art heroine lived.
It was a 3 hours drive from Roorke City, but time was something Su Chen was not short of.
When they arrived at the destined place, Su Chen had to admit that the Zhu family was really a formidable power.
The entire small mountain range was owned by them, lots of houses, markets, and entertainment facilities piled up on the way to the top-most peak. It was like the Zhu family had built their small-exclusive city here.
Even though all its martial artists and core people were bedridden at the moment, he could still see many ordinary people affiliated with the Zhu family on the bustling streets, which once again highlighted his decision to subdue them instead of killing them was correct.
He can surely kill hundreds of people, but killing thousands of people living here was not a feasible option. Such a giant and ruthless killing; no matter how big his connections were, he won't be able to keep the truth away from the media's eyes.
Finally, their car reached the top-most peak. The guards guarding the entrance gate saw that the one sitting inside was their young Miss Zhu Qing, they hurriedly saluted and opened the gates for the car to pass.
The news that the young Miss returned quickly reached the ears of all the core people in the family.
All of them were now aware of the phone call between Zhu Qing and the patriarch. Although they were on the verge of death, hearing her arrival, they became excited, thinking that maybe she had brought back the antidote?
After all, no one wants to die, especially those who are confident of breaking through their realms in future.
In anticipation, they all dragged their half-dead bodies to the main hall.
When Su Chen and Zhu Qing got out of the car, a servant was bowing respectfully.
"Young Miss, Patriarch and other elders are summoning you to the main hall."
"Hmm, let's go!"
Zhu Qing realised Su Chen and his maid Catlynn were still standing by the side of the car instead of following her.
Understanding her expression, Su Chen nonchalantly replied,
"I don't have time to talk and argue with those old-geezers. Just go inside! Most of them are going to die in an hour anyways. Just bring back four people who you want to save!"
"With your strength, I hardly doubt anyone can resist you."
Seeing her still hesitating, he patted Catlynn on the back,
"Go help her subdue them!"
"Yes", Catlynn obediently answered. She was barely hiding the happiness in the corners of her eyes.
She couldn't help but praise herself, 'Hehe, sister Ashlynn and sister Sunaina, I took the lead. Young master trusts me the most as I'm the most capable. That's why he brought me along instead of you two.'
-There was a hidden competition going on among the three maids of who will get their master's favour the most.
Su Chen was aware of her maid's little thoughts, but he welcomed them. According to him, no matter where it is, healthy competition is always good for maintaining the quality and proficiency of people working under him.
"Make sure to explain everything to the four people you will bring back in advance. If their attitude is not good, I don't mind going back on my promise!"
After giving his order to her, Su Chen started fidgeting with his mobile.
Zhu Qing had already experienced Catlynn's strength firsthand and with her along, Zhu Qing's confidence further soared.
Zhu Qing understood Su Chen's intentions.
He wanted her to subdue all those elders on her own.
It was a small test for her to prove if she was worthy enough to follow him~
If she can't do such a simple thing, What expectations can Su Chen have for her in future?
Therefore, Zhu Qing hastily followed after the maid.
In her mind, she had already chosen four people whom she wanted to save but she knew her choices would face strong resistance once she announced everything in the main hall.
But this time, she was ready.
