"Madam He, is there perhaps some misunderstanding?"
She tried desperately to explain that such a thing was simply impossible.
"I haven't, I've merely treated Young Master He as my savior," she insisted.
"Enough, I don't want to hear you talk. I don't want to hear a single word of your explanation. Just get out," Madam He demanded.
"..."
Zhirou wanted to say more, but two of the He Family's security guards had already arrived outside.
"Take her out for me."
The men looked at Mu Zhirou.
Knowing her and aware that she had been in Young Master He's company, where he seemed rather kind to her, their exchanges filled with laughter and chatter, they hesitated to lay hands on her.
Hesitant, they said to Madam He, "What if Young Master asks..."
"Just say she was messing around outside and got taken away by someone."
Mu Zhirou looked horrified at Madam He.
To say such a thing outright, in her presence!
"How can you insult me like this?" she exclaimed.
