Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries Chapter 452: Old Acquaintances

It seems that the matter concerning Lu Zeming can only be handled by my own efforts.

The al was eaten with a bit of distraction among the three of them.

After the al, Xia Mian didn’t imdiately go upstairs but sat in the living room watching TV.

Once Sister-in-law Zhang had settled Mrs. Lu back in her room and ca downstairs to tidy up, Xia Mian called her over.

In the afternoon, when Xin Rou and the other two were chatting, Sister-in-law Zhang was present, so she heard everything they said.

Sister-in-law Zhang was actually eighty to ninety percent convinced by what Xin Rou said.

After all, ever since Xia Mian stepped into the Lu Family, there had indeed been frequent bizarre occurrences!

More importantly, the curse that had always troubled Lu Zechuan was resolved with the arrival of Xia Mian.

"Sit down!" Xia Mian slightly nodded her chin towards the opposite sofa.

Sister-in-law Zhang cautiously sat across from her, not quite daring to look at Xia Mian.

Xia Mian didn’t mind and casually asked, "While Lu Zechuan and I were upstairs, what did Xin Rou and Yu Wenxin say to the old lady?"

Xia Mian’s question was so casual, seeming like a re inquiry about their chat.

But Sister-in-law Zhang knew well that Xia Mian had realized that the reason why Mrs. Lu was unhappy was largely due to her two old friends.

Sister-in-law Zhang shivered slightly and hesitantly repeated what Xin Rou had said to Xia Mian.

Xia Mian loosely held a cup of tea, leisurely crossing her legs.

Upon hearing Sister-in-law Zhang explain the situation, she couldn’t help but narrow her eyes slightly.

Claiming she’s not human...

Xia Mian’s lips curled lightly; it seed this rumor-spreader held a grudge against her, refusing to see her well!

"Miss Xia, don’t take it to heart. The old lady fell out with Ms. Xin on the spot and didn’t even invite her to stay for lunch at the Lu Family!"

After detailing everything she heard to Xia Mian, Sister-in-law Zhang felt relieved.

Miss Xia has been nice to everyone in the Lu Family since she ca.

Having been by the old lady’s side for so long, she clearly saw that Mrs. Lu’s liking for Xia Mian surpassed her apprehension.

"I see, you can get back to work!" Xia Mian looked up, giving Sister-in-law Zhang a gentle smile.

Xia Mian’s smile was pure and clean, making even the night seem dazzling, which put Sister-in-law Zhang at ease.

Xia Mian is so beautiful; if she’s not human, she must be a deity! Surely not a ghost!

Sister-in-law Zhang happily went to clean up.

Xia Mian sat on the sofa, quietly poured herself a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly.

Recently, she wondered if she had been too mild-tempered, as people kept testing her limits repeatedly.

When Lu Zechuan ca downstairs, he saw Xia Mian sitting quietly on the sofa sipping tea.

He walked over, hugged her from behind the sofa, and lightly rested his chin on her shoulder, "Not happy?"

Xia Mian responded with a soft hum.

Previously, she didn’t want anyone to notice her peculiarity, but now, after knowing about the existence of the Supernatural Event Investigation Bureau, she felt that being a bit unusual might not be a big deal.

After all, she wasn’t the only abnormal person in this world.

Lu Zechuan gently rubbed her neck with his chin and comforted, "Whoever upset you, we’ll take them down."

His voice was low and alluring, but his words carried a restrained dominance.

She realized that ever since they had visited the Mystical World together a few tis, Lu Zechuan had beco considerably more irritable.

Always wanting to crush soone, it was like he resembled that cold-faced Mr. Lu from her previous life.

Xia Mian let it go, "I don’t know who’s spreading rumors about for now, but I’ll deal with them once I find out!"

Lu Zechuan’s dark eyes slightly dimd, "Spreading rumors about you?"

This person must have really lived enough!

Thinking this, Lu Zechuan maintained his usual calm deanor, "Spreading rumors cos with responsibility."

Xia Mian chuckled softly, wrapping her arms around Lu Zechuan’s neck, "Let’s not talk about unhappy things. Let’s go to bed; we’ll deal with it tomorrow."

Lu Zechuan was also in a foul mood today but still patiently consoled her.

She saw no need to let so baseless rumors spoil her mood.

Lu Zechuan smiled slightly, "Alright."

Though he said all right, Lu Zechuan, after Xia Mian had fallen asleep, got up quietly and summoned the Lu Family bodyguards to gather information.

Just who in the upper circles of Beijing was spreading such slander about Xia Mian?

The efficiency of Lu Zechuan’s people was quite high; by the next day, when Xia Mian woke up, Lu Zechuan inford her that the source of the rumors had been identified.

Xia Mian was genuinely surprised; she had planned on catching the culprit herself before teaching them a lesson.

She hadn’t expected Lu Zechuan to uproot those troublemakers overnight.

"Who is it?" Xia Mian was curious.

Soone aware of her abilities, still daring to provoke her, likely had deep-seated reasons.

Lu Zechuan’s thin lips moved slightly, "Han Xi."

Hearing this na from Lu Zechuan again, Xia Mian was montarily stunned.

Han Xi, the third party who once intervened in Song Juan and Xia Jianguo’s marriage.

Just when she was about to forget this person, they showed up courting death!

"Han Xi latched onto soone influential, and that person was envious of our recent business, so she ca up with this rotten idea to defa you," Lu Zechuan said darkly.

He usually didn’t bother with won, but if a woman crossed his bottom line, he wouldn’t even consider them as such, treating them like they’re not even human.

"Stupid thing," Xia Mian snorted lightly, her eyes shifting subtly, "Let’s deal with her!"

Since Han Xi spread rumors that she wasn’t human, she might as well show her she’s truly sothing else!

Lu Zechuan humd softly, "I’ll arrange it."

The hospital hadn’t yet given him news that Lu Zeming had awakened, so for now, helping Xia Mian release so steam couldn’t hurt.

The power Han Xi relied on was actually a relatively successful businessman.

The businessman ca to the Capital City to develop and, with so wit, managed to establish himself firmly within just a few years.

The way he t Han Xi was sowhat like a plotline from a novel: Han Xi stumbled into a KTV private room in the middle of the business deal while being chased by creditors, and the businessman felt she resembled his first love at a glance.

Then, he gallantly helped Han Xi out of her predicant.

And Han Xi, accustod to using opportunism, eventually got involved with the businessman.

Using her little tricks to enchant n, within half a year, she dismantled the businessman’s original family and successfully climbed the ranks.

Recently, so special fruits had erged in Beijing with excellent taste and effects; the businessman sent people in all directions to find them but never uncovered the source.

Until later, he heard that these fruits ca from the Lu Family.

To be exact, they ca from the frequently missing girlfriend of the young master of the Lu Family.
