Chapter 2422: Chapter 2419: Lu Sangqi’s Rage

Bang.

Lu Sangqi pushed her against the wall, stepped forward, and enclosed her in his arms. His face was dark and overcast with fury, clearly showing he was at his angriest: "Did you go to the Qi family?"

"Why did you go to the Qi family?"

"Yes, I did go to the Qi family." Huo Ning did not understand why he was angry, and nodded in response.

Seeing her indifferent reaction, Lu Sangqi’s fury burned even hotter. Suppressing his anger, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why didn’t you tell me before you went? Hmm? You know there have been issues at the Qi family recently. Who did you go to see there?"

"I know, I went to see Madame Yue. She’s a good friend of mine, and I was worried about her, so I went for a visit." After answering him calmly, Huo Ning noticed Lu Sangqi’s face looked even worse. She felt inexplicably puzzled, unable to understand why he was upset or consider herself in any danger. Nevertheless, realizing Lu Sangqi was concerned for her, she hesitated and said, "Don’t worry, I’m fine."

"You’re fine now, but by the time something happens, it will be too late for regrets." Lu Sangqi looked at her calm face, unable to vent his anger, feeling a strange frustration, even his eyes showed red with suffocation: "You really worry me too much."

"Do you know that because of you, even my sister..." Lu Sangqi closed his eyes without finishing his sentence.

Huo Ning hesitated: "Sister? Don’t you only have two brothers?"

"That’s not important. What’s important is what I’m about to tell you." Lu Sangqi gripped her shoulders, lowering his head to meet her eyes, "Minister Qi secretly went to trouble the Wang family while hiding it from Third Madam Qi. Furthermore, he intercepted everyone sent by Third Madam Qi back to her family. You know how much Minister Qi values the Wang family; he definitely won’t let anyone disrupt his plans at this time. You don’t realize his ruthlessness: even without evidence, just by entering the Qi Residence, you became a suspect. Whether you know about this or not, in order to prevent anyone from contacting Third Madam Qi, he still might take action against you. Whether it’s intimidation or something else, your life won’t be spared at this point."

"The reason never matters, only the result does. Do you understand?" Lu Sangqi’s grip on her shoulders tightened slightly.

Huo Ning’s expression was one of surprise and doubt as she suddenly said, "I told Madame Yue about this."

"What thing? What did you say?" Lu Sangqi couldn’t react in time.

Huo Ning said, "About Minister Qi detaining the people around Third Madam Qi."

"How do you know?" Lu Sangqi’s shock was beyond words at this moment.

Various chaotic thoughts crossed his mind, ultimately turning into ideas on how to keep Huo Ning uninvolved.

Even his breathing involuntarily quickened.

"I happened to come across it," Huo Ning frowned slightly, explaining how she discovered this affair.

After listening, Lu Sangqi didn’t know what to say. His mood became especially heavy and complex, his emotions stirred to the point of subtle flushness on his cheeks. He had never expected Huo Ning would stumble upon this, especially not to know where Minister Qi detained Third Madam Qi’s people. This was something he hadn’t anticipated at all.

Of course, he also hadn’t anticipated Huo Ning unexpectedly having a connection with Madame Yue; it completely caught him off guard.

In the end, it was because he didn’t know Huo Ning well enough.

Lu Sangqi stared at her with a deep gaze, moving closer, and said, "From now on, if anything happens, you must tell me. If I ever discover you hid something from me, then I will kiss you for a whole day."
