Chapter 851: Threat (1)

Zhao Youlin thought that after sending Li Yan off, she would finally be able to catch her breath and buy some digestible things on the way to reward her stomach that had just been slightly abused.

However, it seemed that even the heavens would not permit her freedom. She had just sent away a troublesome person, and now an even more troublesome one came along.

Zhao Youlin and Zhao Youlin had just taken two steps back when they saw a black, high-end RV drive to their side.

Zhao Youlin frowned. She felt that the car had an indescribable sense of familiarity. Before she could figure out what it was, the rear window of the car rolled down.

At the same time, a familiar smiling face came into Zhao Youlin’s sight. “Ms. Zhao, we meet again.”

The smile on Zhao Youlin’s face suddenly froze. After a long while, she sighed and said, “It seems that I really need to buy an almanac when I go back to study it.”

Lu Sizheng was amused by Zhao Youlin’s sad and helpless tone. “Ms. Zhao, do you really not want to see me?”

Zhao Youlin raised her eyebrows. “If I say yes, can you pretend not to see me and let us leave?”

Lu Sizheng was not angry at Zhao Youlin’s straightforward answer. Instead, he showed a thoughtful expression. He said in distress, “Have I done something that made you angry recently? Or do you not like the Roses I gave her? Then what flowers do you like? I’ll have someone change them tomorrow.”

As soon as Lu Sizheng said this, Xiao Li, who was following closely behind Zhao Youlin, almost cried out in surprise. She hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth, but her eyes were fixed on Lu Sizheng, who was in the car.

It turned out that the roses these days were not sent by President Mu at all, but by the person in front of her... No wonder she was expressionless every time she received the flowers. There was not a hint of joy at all!

When Zhao Youlin heard Lu Sizheng take the initiative to mention the flowers, her eyes narrowed dangerously. She stared at Lu Sizheng’s calm and sickly pale face and asked coldly, “Young Master Lu, what exactly are you pulling here?”

“What exactly? I feel that I’ve already made myself clear. I didn’t expect you to not notice at all.” Lu Sizheng stared at Zhao Youlin. He laughed even more innocently. “I’m pursuing Ms. Zhao.”

Xiao Li was speechless. ‘!!! Oh My God! I, I, I... I seem to have discovered something extraordinary!’

Compared to Xiao Li’s shock, Zhao Youlin was much calmer. She looked into Lu Sizheng’s eyes without even raising an eyebrow. She asked in a rather mocking tone, “Are you courting me? I think you seem to have forgotten something. I’m a married woman! Do you want to declare war on my husband by doing this?”

Lu Sizheng was not frightened by the chill in Zhao Youlin’s words. He smiled and said, “A gentle and elegant lady is a good match for a gentleman. You may be married, but it does not take one bit away from your charm. No, if anything, you have only become more charming. Forgive me for being presumptuous, but if declaring war with President Mu can get you, I don’t mind giving it a try.”

Zhao Youlin’s face turned slightly cold. She spoke with a plastic smile. “Unfortunately, while you don’t mind destroying other people’s families, I’m not willing to give up my beautiful family to fulfill your whims. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear you the first time, but I’m afraid that you’ll pretend not hearing me right now.”

Despite being embarrassed by Zhao Youlin’s words, Lu Sizheng’s expression did not change. He said with a smile, “Ms. Zhao, why are you belittling yourself?”

Zhao Youlin did not want to continue talking to Lu Sizheng. In her eyes, this person was like a poisonous snake in human skin. He seemed harmless, but in fact, he was more dangerous than anything else.

“If you have nothing better to do, we’ll leave first. If this continues, we’ll be late for work in the afternoon,” Zhao Youlin said as she held Xiao Li’s hand and was about to walk back.

Unexpectedly, just as she turned around, a few tall and strong bodyguards in black suddenly appeared behind her and extended their hands to block their way.

This was the first time Xiao Li had seen such a scene. Her small face was pale with fright, and she reflexively held Zhao Youlin’s hand.

Zhao Youlin protected Xiao Li behind her. Her sharp eyes swept over the black-clothed bodyguards and asked coldly, “Is this how you want to play? If words don’t work, do you plan to use force?”

Lu Sizheng’s expression did not change, and he said indifferently, “Nothing much. I just want to ask you to accompany me to a place.”

Zhao Youlin sneered, “Is this your attitude of inviting people?”

“If I stick to ordinary methods, would you come?”

Zhao Youlin pursed her lips and silently glanced at the few men in black. “Do you think these few people can keep me here?”

“Whether they can keep me or not, we have to try. However, their purpose is not to go after you, but the young lady behind you.”

“Me?” Li suddenly called out and was stunned on the spot. She pointed at herself in confusion.

Zhao Youlin immediately understood Lu Sizheng’s intention, and her face instantly turned ugly. “Are you threatening me?”

“Ms. Zhao, you’re exaggerating. It’s just a necessary measure to achieve your goal.”

Zhao Youlin’s face was gloomy. Her eyes darted back and forth between the bodyguards and Li, and finally focused on the bulge on Lu Sizheng’s waist.

She took a deep breath and compromised. “I’ll go with you, but you have to promise not to make things difficult for this lady.”

“My purpose is only to have you accompany me. If you’re complying, I naturally won’t make things difficult for others.” Lu Sizheng said as he gave a look to one of the bodyguards on the side.

The bodyguard immediately understood and walked to the other side of the car and opened the door on the other side.

Only then did Xiao Li realize the seriousness of the matter. She held Zhao Youlin tightly and did not let go. “President, you...”

“Go back first. I’ll be fine.” Zhao Youlin gave Xiao Li a look and told her to leave first.

Xiao Li was stunned for a moment. She realized that even if she followed Zhao Youlin, she would only be a burden. It was better to go back and have a chance of survival.

Seeing that Xiao Li did not speak, Zhao Youlin knew that she understood. She pulled her hand out and walked toward the open car door.

Zhao Youlin got into the car, but she saw that the few bodyguards in black were still blocking Xiao Li. She frowned and reminded him. “I’ve already gotten into your car. Is that...”

Lu Sizheng smiled slightly and waved at the few bodyguards who were still blocking the road. The few bodyguards immediately moved aside.

Xiao Li took one last look at Zhao Youlin, gritted her teeth, and ran.

Lu Sizheng seemed to have expected this. He said to the driver in front, “Drive.”
