Chapter 195 - UNWANTED GUESTS
When the car stopped in front of Han Luo's house, Han Sheng Ming got out of the car prompting Han Luo to step out. As she was about to follow Han Sheng Ming and exit the car, Mo Yuan caught her wrist and stopped her from doing so.
Han Luo paused and glanced at him. "Is there something you want to tell me, big brother Yuan?" She was flustered by his sudden move but attempted to hide her feelings. His palm was scorching hot. The heat from his palm made her feel dizzy.
"Don't stay up too late. Go to bed early," Mo Yuan stated. He observed her for any obvious changes in her reaction. He stared intently at her with his dark eyes as if he could read her mind.
Han Luo averted her gaze and quietly nodded. She slowly retracted her hand from his grasp and alighted from the car.
Mo Yuan's gaze followed her movements as she left. He watched her leave without taking his eyes away from her slender figure.
Out of blue, Tang Yujin questioned him, "Something did happen, didn't it?" He had been observing these two the whole time and finally opened his mouth.
Mo Yuan kept looking at her till she disappeared inside the house. Only after that, he turned around and faced his friend. "Nothing important. Why do you ask?"
"Little Luo looked flustered at that time. I'm sure it had something to do with you. Am I wrong?" His tone was calm but his eyes looked scary. He was interrogating his friend for the first time.
Mo Yuan noticed his change of expression. He simply answered, "I just gave her a charm."
Tang Yujin narrowed his eyes and inquired further, "What kind of charm?"
Mo Yuan asked him back, "If you are so interested, why don't you ask her? She might tell you."
Tang Yujin stayed silent for a moment and then announced, "Xiao Yuan, you are my childhood friend and I have no grudges against you. I know that you are used to doing things in your own way. Whatever you do, you have your own reasons for doing so. I can forgive you and act as if nothing happened. However, if you hurt little Luo, I won't spare you." His tone was threatening while his eyes were slightly chilly.
'Maybe that's why people say not to anger quiet people,' Mo Yuan thought. He solemnly pledged, "The last thing I'll ever do is to make her cry out of grievance."
"You better remember that," Tang Yujin's expression quickly changed and he warned his friend with a small smile as though nothing had happened.
While they were talking about her, Han Luo was suffering at home.
She went home and was about to go upstairs to call it a day. At this moment, the calling bell rang indicating the arrival of a guest.
Normally, Noah would have opened the door but this time, Han Luo took the initiative. She was still absentminded and opened the door without even checking who it was.
Right after she opened the door, a harsh slap fell on her left cheek. The surprise slap caught Han Luo off guard. She dazedly put her hand on her left cheek that was stinging at that moment.
She lifted her eyes to notice that the attacker was still swinging her hand to continue the assault. When Han Luo recognized who it was, she was so shocked that she forgot to step away from her spot. As a result, she received yet another tight slap on her other cheek.
The slaps were quite loud. Noah who was in the living room heard the crisp sounds and was instantly alerted. He sprinted toward the entrance. As he was nearing the door, he was greeted with an ear piercing shriek.
"You b***h! How dare you use my husband's money and have a lavish life? You manipulated my husband and my only son. You took them away from me and you think you won't be found out! I've raised you for years and this is how you repay me? It looks like I've raised a snake. Just like your mother, you are such a pest! Why didn't you die with your mother, you damn rat?!"
Needless to say who this voice belonged to.
Du Liu was yelling her lungs out and she was continuously brandishing her hand to hit Han Luo.
Han Luo took the first three slaps as she stood there completely dumbfounded as this situation unfolded. However, she came out of her stupor when she was hit for the third time and moved away from Du Liu.
Her cheeks turned red due to Du Liu's merciless strikes and her face was swollen pretty badly. On her white face, those obvious hand prints looked hideous, making her look quite pitiful.
When Noah finally reached the door, he was momentarily stunned upon witnessing the scene in front of him. When he noticed that she was hurt, he hurriedly grabbed Han Luo by her shoulder and pulled her behind him. Afterward, He faced Du Liu.
"Madam Han, this is not how you treat the mistress of this house," Noah's voice was excessively cold.
Previously, Noah was working under Ma Rui and then after leaving China, Han Changhong became his master.
Two years later when Han Luo came back to London, she changed the contract unofficially and made Noah her own butler. She was the one paying for him; so, logically speaking she was his boss now. When she turns eighteen after four years, she will officially become his employer.
Du Liu looked like a crazy woman with her hair disheveled, eyes completely turned red and her winter clothes were untidy. Behind her were two Chinese girls who were none other than Ha Luilui and Han Wanwan.
They were Han Sheng Ming's infamous two younger sisters and Han Luo's female cousins. When they looked around the house that Han Luo was currently living, their hearts were filled with jealousy and enmity. Their eyes were filled with so much envy which was very hard to go unnoticed.
They cursed Han Luo in their minds. 'This s**t, how could she live in a house like this while we are stuck in China? Why the hell she has to get everything good when we rot in China? Such a grand house and lavish lifestyle, it can only belong to us!'
Meanwhile, Han Luo already overcame her shock and calmed down her unsettled heart. She silently observed her aunt and her female cousins. She was thinking of ways to deal with this unwanted disaster.
She couldn't do anything extreme as she had to think about her beloved uncle's and Han Sheng Ming's feelings. They took great care of her and her uncle was the one who bought this house for her.
Although this brainless wife and daughters of her uncle barged in uninvited and hurt her, she couldn't kick them out unceremoniously. They were her uncle's family after all.
[A/N: If it was Xue Lin, she wouldn't think for the second time and kick them out as soon as possible.]
What will Han Luo do now? How will she manage the situation?
