To Love You Again

Chapter 421 - Lu Jin and Xiong Zhi



Chapter 421 - Lu Jin and Xiong Zhi

The music from the banquet seemed faraway, and the sound of the wind brushing through the leaves of surrounding trees and bushes filled the dimly lit parking area.

In one corner amongst the rows of luxury cars, two tall men faced each other in a silent conflict of tremendous aura of qigong.

Earlier, when the couple was about to return to their car, Linfeng suddenly felt an attack of qigong coming his way. He automatically set up his defenses, pushed his Young Miss behind him, and fought back silently. His peach blossom eyes narrowed into dark pools as he stared in one direction.

The air turned heavier, making the surrounding air difficult to breathe in.

Xiong Zhi could not sense qigong, however, she could sense an intense undercurrent in the atmosphere. It brought a heavy pressure to her chest, as if she was engulfed in seawater all the way to her neck. Every breath was heavy.

Linfeng noticed and stepped closer to her. The air turned lighter and her breathing finally began to lighten.

"Are you alright? Can you breathe properly?" Linfeng asked, tearing his gaze away from the man. He took the handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the sweat on Xiong Zhi\'s forehead, and rubbed her hair.

Xiong Zhi took another deep breath before looking at the two people walking towards them. Their steps were light and did not make any echo in the spacious and empty parking area.

"En, I\'m alright. Do you know him?"

Linfeng looked again at the approaching men. The man with the expressionless face, his aura was very familiar. He was the man he had a clash with his qigong earlier at the banquet. Earlier, he could not fully see his exact appearance due to the distance and dim lightning, but he could make it out somehow.

Meeting him now in a closer distance, he was able to study his features directly.

After seeing his face clearly, Linfeng instantly recognized him.

He had never met this person in real life before, but when he was still studying as an apprentice butler under the Xiong family, he had seen all the hidden records of all the other legendary families. Of course, not all secrets were included because some were buried deeply by the other families.

Still, as part of his training, this study allowed him to familiarize with the other legendary families well. He memorized the family members from those families and their close aides. Naturally, this man\'s picture was also included.

Although the man he saw in the picture was still in his teens, Linfeng who had a very good memory could still recognize his features. Besides, this man and that bug had similarities due to their blood relation, except that the color of their eyes and hair were entirely different.

"Yes, I know him. He is Lu Jin, the first young master of the Lu family."

Xiong Zhi: \'!!!\'

Lu Jin finally approached them with his attendant standing far behind him. He withdrew the pressure and stepped forward. "You recognize me? I don\'t think we have met before."

Linfeng watched him calmly. "It\'s my obligation to know each member of the legendary families, as well as protecting my Young Miss. So, Young Master Lu Jin, if you came with unkind intentions, I advise you to step back. This is my warning out of respect for the Lu family backing you."

Lu Jin\'s face remained distant as his cold voice sounded. "A lie. You knew well the internal conflicts of each family. Thus, what is this warning for?"

His message was clear. The Lu family was obviously not backing him, so even if he did not give a warning and acted with disrespect, the Lu family would not take any offense from it.

"Besides, I am just here to greet the heiress of the Xiong family." Lu Jin\'s icy eyes turned to Xiong Zhi. "Heiress Xiong Zhi, I believe it\'s our first meeting."

Mr. Kang glanced at his boss. His expressionless boss was usually quiet and treasured every word of his as gold. He knew that his boss was groomed to be this kind of person. It was also a sign of his boss\'s steady as Mount Tai\'s personality.

But seriously, today, his boss was totally out of his character. He had been talking a lot since earlier.

Was it a good thing or not?

Meanwhile, Xiong Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed that the intense atmosphere earlier seemed to have disappeared. However, she remained vigilant.

This was Lu Jin!

Lu Yin Ze\'s evil brother!

She was surprised at first.

For her, Lu Jin\'s existence was full of question marks. She had never met him in both lifetimes. And in this life, she only knew him as a man who inflicted too much pain and trauma on Lu Yin Ze.

Most importantly... If her conjecture was right, this man was related to the destruction of the four families.

Xiong Zhi\'s cold face, just like the man\'s, also did not let any of her thoughts come out. "You\'re right. But I did not expect that the mysterious first young master of the Lu family will actually come out to especially greet me. Your unique way of greeting is truly enlightening."

Lu Jin\'s inky black eyes bore straight to Xiong Zhi\'s.

Two pairs of cold eyes met each other, as if two pairs of glaciers appearing hazily in icy fog.

Lu Jin was intently observing the young woman in front of him, when he was disturbed by a sharp glare that cut at his way. He glanced at the source.

"Your eyes are a bit disrespectful, Mister Butler. Be careful on who you offend with your station." His tone did not change, but the warning was clear as day.

Linfeng eyebrows rose slightly, finally noticing something.

Xiong Zhi on the other hand was annoyed. Was he looking down on her Linfeng?

She narrowed her eyes, "You\'re the one who is disrespectful. I don\'t know exactly what you did earlier, but you are clearly trying to make me feel uncomfortable. Also, you should address Linfeng properly. He is not just any butler. You might have received the news yet, but the Zhou family no longer serves the Xiong family."

Linfeng glanced at his Young Miss. Although he was happy she defended him, but that was not the point. It appeared she had not noticed yet.

\'This man came here to check on us and also warn us. For whatever reason, they were undoubtedly ill-intended, as if he came to purposely annoy him. But what for? And why?\'

Based on what he read on the profile of this mysterious man, he liked his own space. He was not the type of person to make an initiative like greeting someone especially. There must be a reason.

While he was thinking, Lu Jin also replied. "Is that so? Alright, Mister Butler."

It was as if he did not hear any rebuke at all.

Xiong Zhi annoyance increased. (-_-)╬

Linfeng: \'This guy... Does this man has a grudge against me?\'

The man was not finished yet.

"Ah, it should be, lowly servant of the Xiong\'s Young Miss?" Lu Jin tilted his head. His voice and face remained cold, but the tilting movement of his head while speaking added an air of a person looking down on someone.

Linfeng: "..." There was no doubt about it. This man had a grudge against him.

On the side, Xiong Zhi\'s annoyance had peaked under her expressionless face.

\'What was this man\'s problem? He wasn\'t like Lu Yin Ze at all.\'

She calmly said, "It seems that Mr. Lu Jin, the outcast of the Lu family, has no manners. What a pity."

Linfeng: "..."

Lu Jin: "..."
