Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 858 - Invited to Dongfang Xu’s Mansion

Chapter 858 Invited to Dongfang Xu’s Mansion

Co to think of it, they were old acquaintances.

Moreover, as Xiu’s friend and uncle, she and Dongfang Xu could be considered on good terms.

However, at the thought of Xiu’s eyes, Lin ngya always felt guilty in front of the Dongfangs.

She could shift all the bla onto Wanyan Lie and his force.

But she did not educate Xiaoyu, her younger brother, properly and was neglectful in disciplining him, which caused Xiu to lose her eyes.

Therefore, she would not shirk her responsibility in any case.

No matter what mistake Xiaoyu had made, Lin ngya, as his sister, would try all she could to make up for it.

“Greetings, Mr. Dongfang. I’m sorry for offending your fifth brother out of desperation.” Lin ngya, who respected the brave and astute Mr. Dongfang a lot, said, very modest in manner.

Dongfang Xu waved his hand with an embarrassed look and said, “I see. It’s all my hopeless brother’s fault. He made a fool of himself. I’ve instructed the shop assistants to pack up all the dicinal materials you want to make ands for what he has done.”

At the ntion of his younger brother, even soone as broad-minded as Dongfang Xu felt a little helpless.

Fortunately, his younger brother picked on Lin ngya today. If he did that to soone else, the person would make a big scene that would make everyone uneasy.

At the thought that the pharmacy, whose reputation was built by several generations of the Dongfangs, had almost been ruined by that scoundrel, how could Dongfang Xu not feel distressed?

“Never mind, sir. Xiu and I are as close as sisters, so I can’t just be an indifferent spectator in any case. But I’m wondering if I should tell you sothing.” Lin ngya said, staring at Dongfang Xu.

He said with a knowing look, “Of course, I know what you want to say. But... Xiu has a tough life!”

In fact, Lin ngya wanted to say that Xiu was still young and far from being able to take charge of the Dongfangs’ Pharmacy as chief with her current reputation and tactics.

Now Lin ngya could tell that it was no exaggeration to say that the pharmacy could earn the Dongfangs myriads of money every day.

Moreover, since the Dongfangs sold dicinal materials in the pharmacy, they must have caravans responsible for collecting dicinal materials.

In this case, Xiu, who took charge of the Dongfangs’ Pharmacy, must participate in all links, including supply, transport, managent and sales.

Sales of dicinal materials were the foundation of the Dongfang family’s wealth.

How could a girl like Xiu be competent in her job?

This was probably one of the reasons why Dongfang Xu was so anxious to get Xiu and Xiaoyu engaged.

After all, if Xiu beca a royal by marrying Xiaoyu, her taking charge of the Dongfangs’ Pharmacy would be more acceptable.

Lin ngya thought with a sigh that unfortunately, her silly brother failed to recognize what a wonderful girl Xiu was.

Xiu was brilliant, beautiful and intelligent with rare simplicity and myriads of money as her dowry.

It was a pity that she was not a man. Otherwise, she would take Xiaoyu’s place and marry Xiu.

Of course, she could only feel sorry for this.

“Xiu is indeed a rarely brilliant girl. Nevertheless, Mr. Dongfang, haste doesn’t bring success. You are in the pri of your life now, so you don’t have to be so anxious. Given Xiu’s intelligence, I believe that she can be competent in her job in a few years.” Lin ngya said, not just to flatter Dongfang Xu or ease Dongfang Xu’s anxiety.

Simple people were generally fast learners.

In fact, Xiu was of unsullied character in this sordid world like Xiaoyu.

That was the reason why it was easier for them to distinguish true from false as bystanders.

In a few years, Xiu would probably beco the new capable woman of the Dongfang family.

When the ti ca, who would dare to look down on her?

“Alas, I hope so. However, Miss, I hope you won’t bla for what I’m going to do. It’s all my fault if I make you feel offended by my rudeness. Co on, take Miss Helan to my ho,” Dongfang Xu said.

As soon as he finished speaking, quite a few people ca in succession.

In the blink of an eye, the spacious fourth floor was filled with a multitude of muscular n with sharp eyes.

Despite their common clothes, they all breathed steadily. At a single glance, Lin ngya could tell that they were experts in martial arts.

Baisu nervously stood in front of Lin ngya and stared at Dongfang Xu, who was sitting in front of her, with cold eyes.

“Baisu, go back with the dicinal materials first. It’s okay. Mr. Dongfang just invites for a visit. He will never hurt ,” Lin ngya said.

Compared with Baisu who was nervous, she appeared much calr.

Well, how could she lose her cool?

It was true that Baisu was a master in martial arts and capable of fighting against ten enemies by herself, but what about the other enemies?

Moreover, Dongfang Xu did not seem to intend to kill her. Otherwise, he did not have to say that.

At present, she could only wait and see what exactly he was up to.

“That’s right, Miss Helan. Please believe that I really just intend to invite you to my ho to stay for a few days. I, Dongfang Xu, promise in the na of my family that I will never hurt you,” Dongfang Xu, probably thinking it a little inappropriate to kidnap Lin ngya, said in a very sincere tone despite his determined attitude.

Baisu didn’t believe it. Nevertheless, at the sight that Lin ngya did not look frightened at all, she reluctantly believed Dongfang Xu’s words.

“Okay, I believe what you said. But I have to warn you that my master is of a noble status. If you dare to make her suffer any grievance, I’ll definitely kill you!” Baisu said in an arrogant and cool voice although she was outnumbered by the enemies.

Lin ngya nodded at her. After warning the n around her, Baisu reluctantly stepped back and went out through the door of the fourth floor.

Seeing Baisu disappear from her sight, Lin ngya finally stopped pretending to be at ease.

How could she not be frightened? However, Baisu would never put her mind at ease if she appeared too timid in front of Baisu.

Lin ngya took a sip of the slightly cold tea in front of her and glanced at Dongfang Xu lightly.

She said, “Now that my maid has left, Mr. Dongfang, you can rest assured. I don’t think I need so many guards. Don’t you think so?”

Even a sculpture could not bear to be watched by so many people.

Hearing her words, Dongfang Xu showed a bitter face. Presumably, even he did not expect that one day he would treat a delicate lady like this.

“All of you may leave now. Make sure to treat Miss Helan with due respect and not to slight her!” He gave orders in a deep voice.

After all his attendants left the fourth floor, Lin ngya put down the teacup in her hand.

“Sir, no matter what on earth you an by taking to your ho by force, I must make one thing clear,” staring at Dongfang Xu with her sharp eyes, she said frankly.

“In view of the public and the personal concerns, we are friends rather than enemies. I believe that you know that it’s not a good choice to be my enemy. If it’s your idea to invite to your ho, I’ll take it as a visit to a friend’s ho for a few days. If you are incited to do this, you’d better think twice.” She ca straight to the point with sharp words.

It was true that given the special situation the Dongfang family was in at present, it was understandable even if they kidnapped her.

Nevertheless, if the Dongfang family was incited by soone to deal with her, that would be a completely different thing.

“Rest assured, Miss. I’m just going to invite you to my ho to stay for a few days. I won’t put you in a difficult situation. Besides, although I make this unwise move, I’m not that kind of despicable person. Please put your mind at ease,” Dongfang Xu said.

After hesitating for a mont, Lin ngya nodded.

To be honest, Dongfang Xu and Dongfang Xiu were both upright.

She considered this kind of person trustworthy.

Lin ngya got up and walked downstairs step by step behind Dongfang Xu.

At this ti, because of what the Fifth Master of the Dongfang family had done, a lot of the custors in the lobby had left.

The custors, who stayed here, were either newcors or old custors aware of the ins and outs of the matter.

The shop assistants, who were busy apologizing to the startled custors, would probably give them a proper discount to make up for what had happened to them.

Lin ngya glanced at the back hall, where she had confronted the Fifth Master of the Dongfang family a mont ago, with a sparkle in her eyes.

It was not a bad thing to visit Dongfang Xu’s mansion. Anyway, she still needed to seek confirmation from him.

A small sedan chair carried by two people had been prepared outside. Lin ngya got into the sedan chair without any hesitation.

In fact, she did not have to worry about how long Dongfang Xu could keep her in his mansion, as she believed that Baisu would soon tell that person about it.

As soon as that person ca, Dongfang Xu would certainly release her obediently.

Her ti was very precious and couldn’t be wasted.

They passed through large streets and small lanes.

In the end, the sedan chair was put down in front of an impressive mansion in the outer capital city. Soone, looking like a steward, lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and politely asked Lin ngya to get out of the sedan chair.

“Is this Mr. Dongfang’s ho?” she asked.

The mansion in front of her was a very standard ancient mansion.

As soon as the gate was opened, she saw the richly and elaborately ornanted buildings inside.

“Yes, this way please, Miss,” the steward answered.

He looked shrewd, but he did not dare to offend Lin ngya.

However, it did not improve Lin ngya’s mood a lot. In any case, she was threatened and brought here today. It was really hard for her to be in a good mood.

If she wanted to do sothing, she would feel delighted no matter how exacting and tiring it was.

However, if she was forced to do sothing, she would only feel restrained even if she lived in a splendid house, slept on a plush bed and feasted on the most delectable dishes every day.

“Well, thank you for leading the way,” Lin ngya said with a nod.

Then she pulled a long face and followed the steward into the courtyard.

The spacious courtyard was obviously the place where they usually received guests.

Passing through the verandas on both sides, Lin ngya followed the steward into the backyard and walked through winding paths until they ca deep into the mansion.

The mansion was large, but she barely saw other people along the way.

As Lin ngya saw, there did not seem to be any female mbers in Dongfang Xu’s mansion.

Could it be that he, a big shot who held a dominant position in business and had connections with both mafias and officials, had not married yet?

“I’m wondering if your Madam is here. As a guest, I should go to greet her so as to avoid misunderstanding and causing Mr. Dongfang trouble,” Lin ngya said.

She made a good excuse.

The steward hesitated for a mont and said hesitantly, “We do have a Madam here, but you’d better follow to settle down and wait for my master to co back and decide if you should do that.”
