Chapter 12: Chapter 12 The Spoiled Princess of the Lus!

Translator: CTCTRANS Editor: CTCTRANS

Hearing these words, Song Yan felt inexplicably frustrated.

So, Lu Qingzhi hadn’t given up, right? She was pretending to be indifferent to him on the one hand and bringing another man to provoke him and make him jealous on the other hand.

Did she think this would work?

He would never feel jealous over such a foolish and petty woman, who was incredibly clumsy and silly!

Lu Qingzhi knocked on the door lightly on the third floor.

After knocking, she regretted it, as it wasn’t polite to disturb someone’s sleep. However, the next moment, the door opened.

Ji Huo was wearing a dark bathrobe with water droplets on his chest and damp hair. The scent of his bath and the warmth enveloped Qingzhi as he opened the door.

The bathrobe fit snugly around his shoulders. His shoulder curve was lovely, not in a thin and frail way, but with a powerful and understated beauty.

“Why didn’t you wear your clothes before opening the door?” Qingzhi scolded gently, then added, “You might catch a cold!”

She wanted to find a blanket to wrap him up.

“Good morning, my fiancée. Come in!” Ji Huo replied with a hint of a smile, then adjusted his collar leisurely.

Perhaps it was because it was early in the morning, and his voice still carried a hint of hoarseness. When he mentioned “my fiancée”, it gave Qingzhi a feeling of being teased. She steadied herself and followed him inside.

As a result, her feet suddenly stumbled, and she collided with Ji Huo. She accidentally tore open his bathrobe on his shoulder. Not only that, but she also twisted her ankle quite severely.

Ji Huo quickly turned around and caught her, seeing her chubby face turning pale from the pain.

He reached out, wrapped his clothes back, lifted Qingzhi up, and placed her on the bed.

Qingzhi looked down and realized that her sneaker laces had come loose at some point. She had made such a fatal mistake.

Ji Huo looked at her, covering her face, and he frowned. “Don’t cry, I’ll go find a doctor!”

This little princess from the Lus was too delicate!

“I’m not crying. It’s … uh … embarrassing!” Qingzhi put down her hand, speechless, and a hint of warmth remained on her cheeks.

She had just tried to save herself from falling. In the process, it seemed like she had torn off Ji Huo’s robe. She felt highly embarrassed and didn’t know how to face him now.

Even though his physique was imposing …

However, because of this embarrassing situation, she didn’t even dare to appreciate it.

Ji Huo raised an eyebrow slightly. Seeing her embarrassed expression, he smiled, making the moment she accidentally pulled his clothes open seem inconsequential.

At this moment, the servant outside heard some commotion and sneakily took a peek inside. Shortly after, Grandma Zhou got inside.

“Miss, are you injured?” Grandma Zhou’s face turned pale, “Quickly, fetch the specialists from the Provincial Hospital!”

“Where’s the medical team from the mansion?” Song Yan asked as he walked in from the doorway, not even glancing at Qingzhi sitting on another man’s bed.

“Three of them are studying abroad for a few days, and one took a leave today. So, today …” Grandma Zhou’s wrinkles deepened as she spoke.

“What are you doing!” Qingzhi shivered, forgetting about the pain when she saw Ji Huo undoing her shoelaces.

“Her ankle is quite swollen. Go prepare some ice and the first aid kit!” Ji Huo removed her shoes and socks, placing her foot on his knee.

Qingzhi saw that he had put her foot on his knee. Although there was a bathrobe in between, there was an inexplicable sense of tension.
