Chapter 235
"I'd like to just sit down and enjoy a proper meal, but I'm busy, so very busy!"
Huo Yunting was talking about something related to Lu Zhaoyang, but both of them kept their attention firmly away from each other .
They practically ignored each other like strangers .
Strangers might exchange the occasional glance, but these two were purposefully avoiding each other's eyes .
"Alright, alright, take her with you, make sure to keep her busy!" Old Mrs Huo compromised in the end . She looked at Lu Zhaoyang and said, "You will behave when you are back at Thunderbolt Corp! Do not think about seeing Chen again! If I find that you're up to something, I will make sure you regret it!"
Lu Zhaoyang was about to reply when Huo Yunting interrupted them .
"Grandma, I have to go . " Huo Yunting stood up and took a cursory glance at Lu Zhaoyang . "Let's go . "
"It's still so early, are you really in a rush?" Old Mrs Huo missed seeing her grandson and was unwilling to say goodbye so soon .
"You know that I'm busy . "
Huo Yunting had only one excuse . It was a good enough excuse that he did not need to explain any further .
Old Mrs Huo nodded in understanding and said to Lu Zhaoyang, "What are you still standing there for? Go pack your things!"
"Grandma, I don't have time to wait for her to pack . We are leaving right now . I'll make sure she has everything she needs when we are back in the city . "

Huo Yunting said and then turned to leave .
Lu Zhaoyang sighed quietly in relief for she had been miserable in the house . She turned to follow Huo Yunting without a word .
When they reached the front courtyard, Huo Yunting signalled her to leave the house first .
She was confused but did not argue as she stepped into his car .
Huo Yunting stood by the fountain in the middle of the courtyard, where four maidservants were sweeping the snow .
Suddenly, he snapped and waved to call for the butler . The latter immediately made a light jog toward him .

"Yes, Young Master?"
"Uncle Qin, if word gets out about how uncultured the servants of the Huo residence are, it would be demeaning to Huo Zhenning . "
Huo Yunting spoke with an even tone, but the maidservants in the courtyard heard him clearly . They moved awkwardly as they continued to work .
Butler Qin knew exactly what he meant . He was aware of how the maidservants were making things difficult for Lu Zhaoyang but had kept one eye closed about it because of how old Mrs Huo hated her .
Nevertheless, Lu Zhaoyang was the daughter of Huo Zhenning's wife, the Eldest Young Miss of the family .
"Don't worry, Young Master, I will give them a good lecture . "

"Lecture?" Huo Yunting laughed sharply and said, "I thought you would follow the basic rules of employment . If a servant acts against their employer and destroys furniture on purpose, they would all be fired . "
The maidservants inhaled sharply and could no longer stay out of the conversation . They looked pleadingly at Huo Yunting .
"We'll never do it again, Young Master, please forgive us!"
"Young Master, Zhaoyang she… Ah, no, the Young Miss has made Madam very angry these days . We were only trying to teach her a lesson for being so disrespectful . We weren't trying to be mean!"
"Sob—Young Master, it won't happen again, please don't fire us . My family depends on me to survive!"
Huo Yunting scratched his ear impatiently . He was not interested in their drama .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
