Chapter 7

The bodyguard walked forward and wanted to drag the housekeeper away, but Jiang Yining spoke up and pleaded for the housekeeper at this moment.

“She didn’t do anything wrong. Why did you fire her? A small lesson would be enough.”

Lu Zhi looked at her without a trace of emotion on his handsome face.

Jiang Yining saw that he had no intention of agreeing, and her black eyes turned.

She walked up to him, hugged his arm, and gently shook him. “Hubby, didn’t you say that you’ll do whatever I want?”

Lu Zhi shot her a cold glance.

Jiang Yining shuddered and obediently let go of him, retreating to a safe distance.

Lu Zhi said coldly, “There are laws in the country and rules in the family. If I let her off this time, everyone will learn from her. Wouldn’t this family be in chaos?”

“I didn’t say to spare her. I just didn’t want her chased away.” Jiang Yining squeezed out a fawning smile. “She still has to accept the punishment she deserves.”

Lu Zhi’s eyes darkened. What was this girl up to?

“Hubby, I’m begging you! Didn’t you say that you would give me power? Don’t tell me I don’t even have the right to ask a servant to stay?”

Lu Zhi looked disgusted. “Don’t call me hubby.”

“Alright, Lu Zhi. I’m begging you.” Jiang Yining followed his advice.

“For Jiang Yining’s sake, I won’t pursue today’s matter any further. However, if there’s a next time…”

“Sir, there won’t be a next time!” The housekeeper was so frightened that she hurriedly promised.

“Hub… Lu Zhi, leave it to me!” Jiang Yining took advantage of the situation and said it.

Lu Zhi frowned and ignored her.

He turned his head and announced to the crowd, “From today onwards, Jiang Yining is the mistress of this house. Her words represent me as well! Whoever dares to bully her, humiliate her, and neglect her is going against me! Did you all hear me clearly?”

“We heard you clearly.”

The bodyguards and servants nodded and answered in unison.

Lu Zhi was about to leave, and Jiang Yining shouted at him, “Tonight, I’ll go to your room to look for you!”

This ambiguous sentence made everyone present look at each other.

Lu Zhi knew that she wanted to treat him, so he ignored her and left.

Jiang Yining watched him leave and turned to look at the trembling housekeeper. The smile on her face instantly disappeared. “Follow me.”

She had said it in a gentle tone, but it was extremely cold.

The housekeeper thought that Jiang Yining had saved her in front of Lu Zhi on purpose to humiliate and take revenge on her.

She closed her eyes in despair and followed her footsteps.

She followed Jiang Yining to a secluded place. The housekeeper did not wait for her to speak. With a thud, she knelt on the ground and slapped herself a few times. “Miss Jiang, I was blind and ignorant. I was rude to you. Please forgive me.”

Slap, slap, slap!

Another three loud slaps.

The housekeeper’s face was visibly red and swollen.

Only then did Jiang Yining speak unhurriedly, stopping her from continuing to torture herself. “Don’t be afraid. I won’t eat you.”

The housekeeper gulped. Her fake smile was scarier than eating a person, okay?

“As long as you tell me the relationship between everyone in the Lu family in detail, your mistake will be written off. In the future, I won’t mistreat you.”

Jiang Yining patted her shoulder gently, her eyes filled with an invisible pressure.

The housekeeper was dumbfounded. It was that simple?

Was she trying to trick her?
