Ms. CEO is His Bodyguard - Chapter 44

Fortunately, Wang Rouxi was not eating anything when she heard Xia Jiannan’s words. Not that she would have any big reaction anyway, she was just surprised.

Wang Rouxi then tilted her head to the side as she blinked a few times.

How come she was not aware that she had agreed to visit here with Xia Jiannan?

Or perhaps she did but she forgot about it?

Closing her eyes, Wang Rouxi searched her ‘database’ to verify if she had discussed this matter with Xia Jiannan.

But after a few checks, she concluded that there was not a time when Xia Jiannan brought this matter up.

It could only mean one thing…

Xia Jiannan would surely find one way or another to make her agree to come here.

As to how he will do that, we just have to wait and see.

Describing this scene took some time, but in reality, only a few seconds had passed.

Wang Rouxi subtly let out a breath as she opened her eyes.

Madam Xia, Master Xia and Xia Jinhu had a shocked expression plastered on their faces.

It was unknown what they were thinking at the moment.

Xia Jiannan’s statement was like a huge bomb, blasting their minds away.

The room fell silent for a short while.

But it was indeed for a short while because at the next moment, a high-pitched scream broke the silence.

“Aaaahhh!”

That scream was so loud that it resounded all throughout the silent mansion.

Everyone within the vicinity heard it and they were all startled.

The servants who were doing the household chores…

The head Butler Zuo who was leading Secretary Cheng towards the dining room…

The guards who were patrolling around the mansion…

All of them immediately stopped what they were doing and they quickly searched for the source of the scream.

The first to arrive at the scene were Butler Zuo and Secretary Cheng. They were dumbfounded at what they saw.

What the heck!

This was the first thing that passed through their minds.

Is there anyone who can tell them why the Second Young Master was rolling on the ground while clutching his head?

Had he gone insane?

Butler Zuo and Secretary Cheng shared a look, silently agreeing to hold off anyone that would like to enter the dining room.

It was to protect the Second Young Master’s dignity.

But at that moment, another figure rushed inside the dining room. Butler Zuo and Secretary Cheng were not able to react in time.

They could only look on as that person breezed past the two of them without so much as a nod.

When that person saw Second Young Master Jinhu laying on the floor, writhing in pain, they immediately went over to help him up, “Second Young Master!”

Anxiety could be clearly seen on that person’s delicate face.

Xia Jinhu who was suddenly pulled in this person’s embrace froze. He instinctively tried to struggle free.

But after seeing the anxious look on that person’s usually calm facade, Xia Jinhu’s tense body relaxed. “Ning…”

Ning heaved a sigh of relief when she ascertained that nothing serious had happened to the Second Young Master. “I thought something bad happened to you!”

Xia Jinhu smiled cheekily at this silly young lady.

A mere bump on his head would not really kill him.

But his mother’s punch surely hurt like hell!

“I’m alright! You don’t need to worry about me. Someone as handsome as me would not be deterred by something as simple as this.” Xia Jinhu patted his chest, giving off a heroic feeling.

In Ning’s field of vision, everything faded into the background. Only Xia Jinhu’s bright smile remained, silently engraving itself on her mind.
