Chapter 282 Watch even your breathing... (1/2)
The more they drew closer to their destination, Lyrick Jiang's restlessness grew stronger and stronger. He could not even sit still because of it. Yet, the person in the back passenger seat was sending uninvited imaginary, glittering pink air.
Soon, their vehicle reached Ethan Lu's villa and from the looks of it, the elegant and peaceful house seemed a little different. It was as if it turned haunted overnight that could make someone cower in fear; for example, Lyrick Jiang.
On the other hand, Ethan Lu didn't sense the difference in the house's aura as he was in high spirits. The scenarios of proposing to her and hearing her say yes were enough to make him skip his steps in excitement to see his energy booster.
”Master...” Lyrick Jiang softly called out as he reached his hands to the direction of his master's skipping figure. But to no avail, he didn't hear him.
”Man, I don't think it would be bad at all. Madam is reasonable and wouldn't kill master not unless he did something really wrong.” Shaking his head sideways, Jarred Guo heavily sighed upon seeing the dramatic Lyrick Jiang.
”You don't know because you didn't kneel on a washboard!” Venting his grievances, Lyrick Jiang glared at Jarred Guo on the side. Just then, his eyes lit up and stared at Jarred Guo for a minute.
”Wh— what are you thinking? Why are you looking at me like that?” A sudden premonition dawned on Jarred Guo seeing that his colleague had the eyes of a deranged person!
”Hehe, accompany me inside. Aren't we partners? Right right?” Moving his eyebrows up and down, Lyrick Jiang grinned as he forcefully drag Jarred Guo with him.
By the time Lyrick Jiang and Jarred Guo went inside the manor, they already saw their master kneeling, his complexion was pale as if he was unable to go further into the house and just broke down the moment he saw the living area.
Afraid yet curious, Lyrick Jiang and Jarred Guo subconsciously tiptoed. The moment they approached their master— several steps from his behind, Lyrick Jiang's heart sank along with his weakened knees— giving way and instantly crashed onto the floor. Meanwhile, Jarred Guo's eyes widened from the shock upon seeing a beautiful lady sitting across Lexi.
However, what made his eyes bulge was not because of how seductive the other lady looked but how terrifying Lexi's aura and the equipment that laid on the small table.
There were ropes, different knives of all sizes, duck tape and every type of dangerous object one could find around the house!
”Love...”
”Madam, I was wrong! Please forgive me just this once!” Just as Ethan Lu finally managed to speak a word, Lyrick Jiang kowtowed and loudly admitted his wrongs and apologized.
”Don't be like that...” Chuckling, Lexi modestly covered her lips by the back of her hand. Yet, her voice was laced with killing intent that all of the men present discerned.
