When Chu Ning heard this, she smiled. However, there was no warmth on her face. If it weren’t for Dabao, she wouldn’t have stepped into the Chu family at all. She thought about how she had missed her biological parents for years. What a waste of time.

Looking at Chu Ning’s arrogant and cold expression, Chu Zhongxing felt his blood pressure about to explode. “What are you smiling at? Hurry up and apologize to your grandmother.”

Chu Ning smiled. “Grandma? Where? Oh, are you talking about this old lady? Why should I apologize?”

Even if she needed to stay with the Chu family for Dabao, it was impossible for her to accept their ill-treatment. Otherwise, she would not be able to find anything.

Matriarch Chu’s blood pressure definitely couldn’t decrease today. She roared hysterically, no longer looking like a noble lady. “What are you all waiting for? Hurry up and throw this scourge out!”

“Grandma, Brother Li Jing and his fourth uncle are here!”

At this moment, Chu Ge suddenly said.

When Matriarch Chu heard this, she was stunned and looked at the courtyard door in a daze.

How long had Fourth Master Li and Young Master been here? Didn’t they say that it would take another hour? Had they seen everything just now? And her walking stick…

Matriarch Chu lost the ability to think, and Chu Zhongxing and his wife’s minds went blank for a moment.

Chu Ge was speechless. He just wanted to help his sister out of trouble, but why did the Li family come at this time?

In an instant, the air was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

Chu Ning followed their gaze and saw a tall man standing silently outside the Chu family’s villa. He was dressed in a black custom-made suit and had an arrogant aura. In an instant, it was as if everything paled in comparison to him.

Chu Ning had never seen such a good-looking man. Moreover, why did she feel a strange sense of familiarity? So this man was the Fourth Master of the Li family that the Chu family had mentioned? However, when she noticed Li Jing beside him, her gaze changed.

As if sensing her gaze, Li Rui glanced at Chu Ning. His slender and fair fingers slowly rubbed the black jade ring on his fingerbone, and his eyes were as cold as cold stars.

This made Li Jing subconsciously shiver. “Fourth Uncle.”

Li Rui stared at Dabao with a black light in his eyes and said in a low voice, “The Chu family has two daughters?”

To Li Jing, Fourth Uncle’s voice was very cold, as if it wanted to freeze him to death. He had goosebumps all over his body. “Fourth Uncle, yes.”

Li Rui asked, “Who are you engaged to?”

Li Jing lowered his head and replied, “Fourth Uncle, she’s the one with two children. Her fate is bad. Her younger brother died when she was born and she was placed in the mountains.”

Li Rui said, “Are you going to break off the engagement now?”

“Yes, Fourth Uncle.” With just a few simple words, Li Jing felt that it was difficult to breathe. It was as if he had been in a low-pressure area. His heart felt very uncomfortable and he felt extremely oppressed. He could only say that Fourth Uncle’s aura was too terrifying. Li Jing secretly glanced at him, but he did not see any emotions on the latter’s face.

“Ring the doorbell.” Li Rui played with the thumb ring. His large hand had a shocking beauty.

Li Jing shuddered and hurriedly pressed the doorbell. Actually, when they first arrived at the Chu family, he was about to go in, but he was stopped by Fourth Uncle.

At that time, he was stunned, but he didn’t dare to resist. He only looked at Fourth Uncle who had been staring in the direction of the Chu family’s villa with a dark gaze. At that time, Old Madam Chu and the others hadn’t come out yet, and there was only the butler, that bitch Chu Ning, and those two bastards at the entrance of the villa. So what was Fourth Uncle looking at? It couldn’t be Chu Ning, right?

Now that Fourth Uncle said that he was going in, Li Jing couldn’t help but look at Chu Ning.

However, Chu Ning did not look at him. Her cold gaze landed on the long figure behind him. He was wearing long pants and a long shirt. The collar of his black shirt was not buttoned, revealing his slender neck. The curve of his Adam’s apple was clearly… very sexy.

Because her eyes lingered a little too long, she looked up slightly and met those dark eyes. It was obvious that she felt a strong sense of danger, which made her breath tighten. She realized that his eyes were actually staring at Dabao. Why? Could it be that this man had seen something?

Just as she was in a daze, the doorbell rang. The Chu family also reacted and invited excitedly, “Hurry up and welcome Fourth Master and Young Master.”

In an instant, the Chu family moved towards the courtyard door.

When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Matriarch Chu personally opened the door. The servants stood on both sides and welcomed them.
