Chapter 420 - 420: The Situation Begins to Get Critical
Qin Lu helplessly said, “Elder Hua, I won’t mistreat Yanyan.”
He cherished her too much to mistreat her.
Hua Shifang showed no gratitude, “And you better not do anything out of line.”
Qin Lu assured, “Before marriage, I won’t misbehave.”
At most, a kiss…
“Fine, I’ll observe you closely. If you don’t meet the standard, forget about marrying Yanyan!”
“Yes, Elder Hua.”
It was the first time that Qin Lu had been scolded like this, and he dared not resist.
Dealing with the guardian of the little one was much harder than dealing with the little one herself.
Hua Shifang’s mood improved somewhat thanks to Qin Lu’s tactfulness.
In the kitchen, Nan Yan and Fu Yubai were washing dishes.
“Yanyan, leave this to Senior Brother and head outside.”
“Let Master and Second Master have a talk with Qin Lu first, and then I’ll go out.”
Fu Yubai chuckled, “Aren’t you worried that Master and Second Master will make things difficult for Mr. Qin?”
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow, “They’ll make things difficult sooner or later, and he’ll have to pass this test sooner or later.”
Master and Second Master were old-fashioned and didn’t want her to have a boyfriend so soon.
Let Qin Lu deal with them.
If he could handle Old Master An, handling them should be a piece of cake.
“That’s true,” Fu Yubai chuckled lightly. “Mr. Qin wants to steal their precious disciple. He should endure a bit of hardship.”
“But little junior sister, have you really made up your mind about him?” Fu Yubai turned serious.
He hoped his little junior sister would find happiness, but could Qin Lu really be the right man for her?
Although he wasn’t sure about Qin’s identity, he could sense from their interactions that Qin Lu was anything but ordinary.
He was very strong, and he exuded the aura of a true leader.
Even though he had been restraining himself around Nan Yan, the unspoken pressure and dominance were still noticeable.
Such a man wasn’t easy to control.
If he was sincere, it was fine, but what if he had ulterior motives for getting close to his little junior sister…
Then his little junior sister could be in great danger!
However, he could sense that Qin Lu’s feelings for his little junior sister were deep.
He hoped that his concerns were baseless.
“Third Senior Brother, I don’t really understand love or feelings, but I want to follow my heart.’
Nan Yan’s tone was somewhat elusive, “If I have to choose one person to spend the rest of my life with, I just want to be with him…”
There was no second man who could touch her heart in the same way.
For the first time, Fu Yubai saw an expression of ‘deep affection’ on Nan Yan’s face.
Little junior sister, she was truly falling in love…
Fu Yubai smiled warmly and wished her, “Little junior sister, I hope you get what you wish for.”
“Thank you, Third Senior Brother.”
After washing the dishes, Nan Yan and Fu Yubai returned to the living room, but they didn’t see the expected scene of the two old men making things difficult for Qin Lu.
On the contrary, it seemed very harmonious.
Qin Lu was playing chess with Hua Shifang, while Sun Chan sat beside Hua Shifang watching the game.
Nan Yan and Fu Yubai joined the audience.
Qin Lu’s chess skills were quite impressive, and he could hold his own against
Hua Shifang.
In the end, he lost by a narrow margin.
Chapman arrived with a group of burly men and forcefully entered Shen Junqing and Bai Chen’s residence. “Take them with us!” Chapman ordered his men.
They subdued Shen Junqing and Bai Chen, escorting them to a laboratory. While the men were restraining them, Bai Chen discreetly employed a concealed device from his pocket to alert Nan Yan that they were in a critical situation.
Nan Yan received the urgent notification from Bai Chen.
Qin Lu, who was with her, noticed the worry on her face and asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Yanyan?”
Nan Yan stood up and replied, “Elder Master, Second Master and Senior Brother, I apologize, but I have to attend to some pressing matters. I’ll come visit again soon.” She gripped Qin Lu’s hand and left hastily.
Inside Qin Lu’s car, she briefed him about the critical situation.
She thought for a moment and decided it’s time to request assistance from Li
Yuan and Zui Gui.
Without delay, she arranged to meet with them at a nearby cafe an hour later….
