Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Xue Ke’s face imdiately darkened.

He had never been humiliated like this in his entire life.

"Who the hell do you think you are, getting lost in your money like that, huh? Say another word, and I’ll make sure you won’t leave this place today!" Xue Ke pointed at Lu Xiao, his eyes fierce.

Lu Xiao rolled his eyes. Anyone could talk tough, but it mattered more to act tough.

"Slap!" The next second, Lu Xiao stood up and delivered a heavy slap.

"I told you before, keep your mouth clean."

Seeing Lu Xiao take action, two guards behind Xue Ke imdiately stepped forward.

Of course, they hadn’t even lifted their hands when Lu Xiao slapped them both into unconsciousness.

The expressions of everyone present changed as they looked at Lu Xiao.

Especially so of the old ladies, who stared straight at Lu Xiao.

Rich, low-profile, and also able to fight, not to ntion tall and handso. I wonder if the young man is married yet.

"In the future, cut the crap, got it?" Lu Xiao said to Xue Ke, then prepared to leave.

"You just wait for , you dare to hit ? Do you know my surna is Xue! The Xue from Shengjing Xue Clan!" Xue Ke pointed at Lu Xiao, his eyes bloodshot.

Lu Xiao paused in his steps.

The Shengjing Xue Clan?

Wasn’t that the clan that was organizing the Martial Arts Exchange in a few days?

Well, this is quite the coincidence.

Other people in the hall also shrank back at the ntion.

The Shengjing Xue Clan, a genuinely prestigious family, was not to be trifled with.

This young man surnad Lu indeed had a lot of money, buying a 1.2 billion yuan courtyard house just like that, but with the frightening ans of these great clans in Shengjing, money alone might not be enough to withstand them.

"Fine, feel free to seek revenge anyti. I’ll be staying at that courtyard house these next few days."

"Oh, and when you do co, it’s best to bring more people."

"Are you from the Xue family’s main branch or a subsidiary? If possible, bring more experts. I can take a beating," Lu Xiao said with a smile to Xue Ke, then he left the hall.

Seeing Lu Xiao leave, Ai Qian imdiately followed.

"Anything else?"

"I should at least take you to the house. The house uses a passcode lock, we need to set up a new code, right?"

"Alright, let’s go then."

Ten minutes later, Lu Xiao arrived at the courtyard house on Ai Qian’s electric scooter.

In the bustling area of Shengjing, traveling by electric scooter was truly practical.

After setting the new passcode at the gate, Lu Xiao entered the courtyard.

It didn’t look much different from the brochure, and the aura was even slightly better.

Every corner of the courtyard was clean, and the water in the pond was well-maintained, with the goldfish looking plump and healthy.

"Aunt Liu, are you there?" Ai Qian called out.

"Ah, coming."

Soon, a middle-aged woman ca out from the side room.

Though she was already in her fifties, she maintained her figure well, dressed in a grey and white cotton-linen dress with so simple accessories.

Her deanor was very gentle, and her smile gave off a very comforting feeling.

"Is it Ai Qian ah? Are you bringing soone to see the house?" Liu Mingshu inquired.

"No, Aunt Liu, this is Mr. Lu Xiao, he has already bought the house," Ai Qian explained.

Then, turning to Lu Xiao, she said, "Mr. Lu, this is Aunt Liu Mingshu. She is in charge of the daily maintenance of everything in the courtyard."

"Aunt Liu," Lu Xiao greeted with a smile.

But at that mont, Liu Mingshu seed sowhat distracted, a hint of sadness appearing in her gaze.

So it was sold after all?

Since that was the case, she ought to leave as well.

It wasn’t that she wanted to live there for free, but after taking care of it for several years, she had inevitably grown attached.

"Alright, then I’ll go pack up my things." However, Liu Mingshu quickly adjusted her mood, her movents and tone graceful and natural.

"Aunt Liu, can’t you stay?" Lu Xiao called out imdiately.

Liu Mingshu hesitated for a mont, stay?

"You’ve taken such good care of the yard, and if you leave, I won’t know how to handle it. It will probably be ruined in three days," Lu Xiao said, spreading his hands, indicating that such a fine yard needed proper care, and he would rather not bother.

Lu Xiao’s words also evoked quite a favorable impression in Liu Mingshu’s heart.

But after a few seconds of thought, Liu Mingshu still shook her head.

She knew the price of this courtyard house, a whole 1.2 billion.

Whoever could buy this place was surely from a wealthy and influential family.

In the future, with a large family moving in, it would likely beco very complicated and chaotic with many vexing matters. She knew she couldn’t handle that.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Lu, I just couldn’t bear to see such a beautiful yard fall into neglect and ca over to take care of it."

"Now that the yard has an owner, I shouldn’t stay."

"Once you and your family move in, hiring a few more professional caregivers won’t be too chaotic."

Liu Mingshu’s words were quite indirect, but Lu Xiao understood nonetheless.

Her aning was twofold; first: I’m not a nanny or a cleaner, I just ca because I love caring for the yard.

Second: I don’t like the hustle and noise of a large family, I prefer peace.

Indeed, Liu Mingshu’s deanor and temperant had already made these points clear.

"Aunt Liu, it’s just ; I don’t have a large family."

"In the future, at most, a younger brother and an older sister might co to stay, no one else."

"This yard really can’t be without you," Lu Xiao pleaded earnestly.

Upon hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Liu Mingshu also felt sowhat tempted.

If it were indeed as Lu Xiao said, it would probably be ideal.

She would be able to continue caring for the yard without encountering annoying familial issues.

Moreover, she could also tell that Lu Xiao was a very comndable young man, intelligent and well-spoken.

"Then in the future, I will trouble Mr. Lu to provide a salary," Liu Mingshu agreed without much hesitation.

Lu Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he didn’t have to worry about the beautiful yard falling into disrepair.

Seeing that Lu Xiao and Liu Mingshu had reached an agreent, Ai Qian was also pleased.

"Mr. Lu, you really got a bargain. Aunt Liu is an honorary professor at the Design College of Shengjing University. It took us a great effort to involve Aunt Liu back then."

Lu Xiao’s expression was one of sudden realization, "No wonder, Aunt Liu, between your glance and manner, you radiate brilliance, and when you speak, you carry the grace of an orchid, clearly a cultured person. I’ve never attended school, so I hope you won’t disdain for my crudeness."

Liu Mingshu looked at Lu Xiao and shook her head with a light laugh.

Perhaps Lu Xiao hadn’t attended school, but he was certainly not an uncultured person.

Phrases like ’your glance radiates brilliance, your sigh carries the grace of an orchid’ flowed from him naturally, such words could not be from a crude person.

After chatting a bit more, Ai Qian excused herself to leave, saying she needed to go to the housing bureau to handle so formalities.

Lu Xiao moved a chair next to the fish pond and occasionally threw so fish food into it.

He really enjoyed this kind of life, although it probably couldn’t last very long.

Sooner or later, the Goo Clan would find out, and then he wouldn’t have the energy to relish these elegant pleasures anymore.

anwhile, a few kiloters away from the courtyard house, at another residence, Xue Ke was holding an ice pack to his face.

In front of Xue Ke, stood ten uniford guards.
