Xu Jiaojiao’s worries were finally allayed. “Brother, don’t worry. As long as I’m around, I won’t let Lu Zhuo hurt you.”

“As if he could ever hurt me!” Just the mention of Lu Zhuo ticked Xu Zhengyang off, but there were some things he could not say in front of his sister. All he could do was smirk. “Children should not get involved in adult matters. All you have to do is focus on your studies and eat well.”

Xu Jiaojiao gave him a look of annoyance. She was only a few years younger than him, so how could he call her a child?

After Xu Jiaojiao returned to her room and closed the door, Qi Shenbai kicked Xu Zhengyang in the leg. “The lawyer will take care of the Lu Family for you tomorrow. Get out of my house right now.”

Xu Zhengyang stood up for himself for once. “There’s no need for that. 1 can handle it myself.”

“What are you going to do?” Qi Shenbai scoffed. “Get Jiaojiao to beg that Lu guy?”

“Are you an idiot?” Xu Zhengyang sat up from the sofa and looked at him as if he was crazy. “I’d rather beat that idiot to death than let Jiaojiao get anywhere near him, understand?”

Qi Shenbai ignored him. He simply bent down and picked up the cup of honey water that Xu Jiaojiao had made earlier, taking a sip.

Xu Zhengyang slumped back onto the sofa and said with narrowed eyes, “My place is a ruckus lately. Let me crash here for a while.” If he went home, his parents would scold his ears off. What a pain!

“Whatever.” Qi Shenbai took the rest of the honey water and headed toward the stairs. Xu Zhengyang suddenly felt thirsty, but when he reached for the cup on the coffee table, there was nothing there. He looked utterly frustrated. “F*ck you, Qi Shenbai, you little thief! You won’t even spare me the honey water my sister made for me!”

The next day, Xu Jiaojiao overslept. After she woke up in a daze, she hurriedly put on her clothes and ran downstairs. Her expression was filled with regret when she ran into the butler in the living room. “Oh no, I can’t believe 1 overslept! I forgot to make breakfast for Qi Shenbai.”

The butler smiled and comforted her. “It’s alright, Miss Xu. The master and your brother have already had breakfast and left for the office.”

Xu Jiaojiao stopped in her tracks. “My brother stayed over last night?”

The butler nodded.

Xu Jiaojiao rubbed her bleary eyes. If she had known, she would have slept in a little longer. She was still sleepy.

“If you don’t have anything to do, miss, please come with me,” the butler suddenly said.

“Where are we going?” Xu Jiaojiao followed the butler upstairs, puzzled. She did not know where they were going.

The butler brought her to the bedroom next to hers. After gently pushing the door open, he took a step back and let Xu Jiaojiao enter first. Xu Jiaojiao walked into the room, puzzled, and she was surprised to see a spacious and well-lit studio. The curtains were light blue with a matching white lace veil. There were also a few potted plants on the windowsill to liven up the room, and a few oil paintings hung on the wall.

Xu Jiaojiao could tell at a glance that there were the works of some nationally-renowned artists here. These paintings were expensive and rare. On the other side of the room, there was a wall shelf with various painting tools and different brands of paint. There was also a small round table with some fruit juice and a chair beside it.

The easel was placed in the middle of the room, accompanied by a white rattan chair and a feather floor lamp.

Xu Jiaojiao’s clear eyes were filled with excitement and curiosity. “What is…?”

The butler chuckled and replied, “This is the studio that our master instructed us to specially prepare for you.”

“I can paint in here for now on?” Xu Jiaojiao still could not believe it. She had her own personal studio now! She would not have to coop up in her bedroom from now on!

The butler was still smiling. “That’s right. Are you satisfied with the decorations? If you don’t like anything, I’ll arrange for someone to redecorate it.”

“There’s no need to trouble yourself. This is good enough.” Xu Jiaojiao blurted out what was on her mind. Then, she realized something and lowered her head with a shy smile.

“In that case, I’ll go down to work first. Call me anytime if you need anything,” the butler said respectfully. With that, he turned around and left the studio.

After the butler left, Xu Jiaojiao was left alone in the studio. She carefully examined her surroundings, as well as all the paints and drawing tools on the shelf. They were all of the highest quality. Did Qi Shenbai get someone to buy these for her? An indescribable emotion surged in her heart. She took out her phone and pulled up her chat with Qi Shenbai.

Xu Jiaojiao: [1 really love the studio. Thank you.] After sending this message, Xu Jiaojiao added, [The material must cost a lot, right? I’ll transfer the money to you..]
