Chapter 4: Our Young Master Wants to See You

Su Guo'an smiled as he saw off his daughter and future son-in-law, then turned his anger once again on Su Zixi, "You little brat, it's bad enough you go out messing around, but you even framed your sister!"

Ning Yichen's reply practically confirmed Su Zixi's guilt! Su Guo'an was furious, turning to the two servants, "Take the eldest miss to her room and keep a close watch on her!"

Su Zixi suddenly realized that now was not the time to be sad or desperate! She turned to escape, but it was too late…

After being locked in her room by the servants, Su Zixi finally fell into despair.

No, she absolutely could not sit around waiting to die!

Just as she was desperately thinking of a way out, she suddenly heard Su Guo'an's angry voice coming from downstairs, "Who are you people? What do you want?"

Then, she seemed to hear Lin Shuyue's terrified scream!

It sounded like there were intruders in the house.

Su Zixi couldn't help but clench her fists, maybe she could take this opportunity to escape…

Suddenly, her door was pushed open, and a man in a suit stood at the doorway, smiling, "Miss Su Zixi, right? Our young master wants to see you."

Su Zixi looked at him warily, "Who is your young master?"

"You will find out shortly." The man continued smiling, his eyes were very gentle, almost... affectionate?

Moreover, he looked somewhat familiar.

Su Zixi shook her head; she must have been mistaken!

"This way, please." The man stepped aside slightly and gestured.

Su Zixi had no choice but to walk out.

At this point, she had no other options. Although she didn't know what was happening, it might not be entirely bad for her.

Downstairs, a group of bodyguards in suits stood in two rows in the living room. Su Guo'an stood by the sofa with hunched shoulders, constantly wiping sweat from his forehead. Lin Shuyue was being held in the corner of the living room by the bodyguards, looking extremely terrified.

Su Zixi took a deep breath, descended the stairs, and walked step by step to the center of the living room.

Then, she saw a man sitting on her family's sofa.

His hands were casually draped on the back of the sofa, his long legs crossed, exuding an unparalleled aura of nobility like a king.

The man's face was exceptionally striking! Dark, deep eyes, a straight nose, thin lips, perfect like a deity.

As soon as he saw Su Zixi appear, his gaze immediately fell on her, his dark eyes deepened, like the most profound night sky...

Su Zixi's face suddenly changed!

This man was the one who had thrown her out of the room this morning!

How could he be here? Was he here to settle accounts with her?

Su Zixi's already weakened legs couldn't help but tremble.

Standing beside her, Su Guo'an forced a smile and said, "Young Master He, my little daughter is impetuous. If she has offended you, please feel free to deal with her as you see fit, I won't say a word!"

Su Zixi bit her lip!

Even though Su Guo'an had disappointed her countless times, hearing him say this now still pierced her heart.

The man on the sofa frowned slightly, and the bodyguards immediately moved Su Guo'an out of the way, pushing him into the corner with Lin Shuyue.

Seeing this, Su Zixi widened her eyes in even greater fear!

If he was here to settle accounts with her… then, she was surely doomed!

He Jingyao took in the terror in Su Zixi's eyes completely.

Since she had left his room this morning, she seemed to have had no proper wash or rest. Her long hair was messy, lying on her small face, with only her bright and enchanting eyes showing.

But those eyes were filled with fear, like a frightened fawn.

Recalling last night's scene, He Jingyao's throat tightened slightly.
