Chapter 377: 377
She wrapped her arms around herself and studied him with narrowed eyes . “I think you owe me an explanation about your relationship with Huo Yunting . Also, who is that lady? You never leave the house . I think the only woman you know is the lady downstairs . ”
Lu Bai slid further away from her with his laptop . “She is the Huo family’s stepdaughter . Nevertheless, the matter with the organization has nothing to do with them . Besides, Ol’ Jiu has got Huo Yunting injured . ”
Wen He affected mock surprise . “He didn’t manage to kill Huo Yunting with his legendary shooting skills? Oh well, at least Chen Jiu has gotten revenge for me on Huo Yunting . I’ll be sure to treat him to a good meal!”
She clapped cheerfully but accidentally stretched her wound . Her face twisted in pain .
Lu Bai ignored her and brought his laptop to the living room .
The next day, Lu Zhaoyang was about to head to work when she saw Huo Li standing right outside her door, waiting for her .
“Hey there . How is Huo Yunting?” she asked .
“Brother Ting is as fit as a fiddle . I’m here for you!”
Since the attacker was not found yet, Huo Yunting was worried about her and sent him over as protection .
“I’m just heading to the office . It should be fine . ”
She slowly stepped out of her apartment . Despite understanding that the matter was serious, she was still unwilling to have Huo Li following her around .
If anyone in the office saw him, they might think that he was trying to commit corporate espionage .
Lu Zhaoyang made her way down the stairs as she called Huo Yunting on the phone . Huo Li followed behind her without a word .
Brother Ting is worried about her . Why can’t she just accept his gesture?
“Are you feeling better?” she asked gently .

“Yup, I’m not dead yet . ”
He replied casually as though the serious injury did not bother him at all .
“I’m fine too . I did not offend anyone important in the city, so there’s no need for a bodyguard, right?” She took a peek at Huo Li behind her .
“Don’t forget that you are my sister in name . I’m just being careful . ”
He could take care of the perpetrators himself, but what if they go for someone close to him instead?
“How long will Huo Li be with me? I don’t want to die, but I am not that desperate yet,” she said . “Besides, having a man with me all the time is not very convenient . ”
Huo Yunting considered that for two long seconds . “You’re right . Let Huo Li see you to Ge Yu . I will send you a new bodyguard . ”

“Are you overreacting?”
“Objection denied . ”
Lu Zhaoyang listened to the dial tone on her phone and sighed . Huo Li followed behind her as she drove to the office .
To have Huo Yunting’s personal assistant serve as a normal office lady’s bodyguard was too excessive .
After seeing her walk into the office building safely, Huo Li drove away .
Lu Zhaoyang had just entered the reception hall when a woman dressed in all-black leather jacket and leather pants approached her . She wore sharp high heels and seemed to be enjoying a lollipop .

The woman was over 170 centimeters tall . She had sharp, oval eyes and clean-cut hair . She looked at Lu Zhaoyang with her balanced and handsome features .
Lu Zhaoyang was certain that they had never met .
“How do you do . I am Yan Se . ” The woman extender her arm .
Lu Zhaoyang did not reciprocate . She was wary of this apparent stranger .
“Hello, and you are…”
