Hello Love, Goodbye Billionaire

Stephanie Ruan proceeded to walk to the servant’s side and squatted down beside her in the most elegant position.

Following that, she gently held on to her injured hand and spoke in a soft voice, “Leave it first. Come with me.”

“What are you trying to do?!” Unhappy with the situation, Victoria Zhong instantaneously questioned her in an unfriendly tone.

Standing up, Stephanie Ruan faced her with a cold smile, “Madam Victoria, this girl here has injured her hand. She will come back after bandaging her wound.”

“No! I said she will clean up the place right now!” Victoria Zhong immediately lost her cool and raised her voice at her.

Retracting her ‘friendly’ look, Stephanie Ruan now stared at Victoria Zhong indifferently, “That’s not a question.”

“!!…”

Well, Victoria Zhong has always been the first lady in the house – after Grandma Zhong of course, and is used to ordering all the servants around.

Right now, with the sudden appearance of Stephanie Ruan, anyone could tell that Victoria Zhong is definitely feeling threatened by her.

Especially when Stephanie Ruan naturally carries a much stronger demeanour which inevitably makes Victoria Zhong feel slightly oppressed.

Who knows when her position in the house would be taken away by an outsider?

As such, she has to defend her rightful place in the house no matter what!

“I said she…!!”

Before Victoria Zhong could even finish her sentence, she was quickly reprimanded by Grandma Zhong.

“Victoria! That’s enough!” It is clear that Grandma Zhong is very unhappy with her daughter-in-law’s poor and uncontrollable behaviour.

Since Grandma Zhong has already spoken, Victoria Zhong is forced to sit back down and not speak another word.

Chiming in to support Stephanie Ruan, Javier Zhong also stood up. “Darling, let’s go back to my room. I have a first-aid kit there.”

“Mmm, okay.” Still holding on to the servant’s arm, both of them immediately followed after him.

As they are approaching Javier Zhong’s bedroom, the young servant suddenly slowed down in her footsteps.

“??…”

“What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?” Seeing the servant’s hesitant behaviour, Stephanie Ruan matched her walking pace and probed out of concern.

“No, Madam… I… I am not allowed to go in…” She replied timidly.

Being a servant in the Zhong’s Residence does not give them a free pass to roam around the house as and when they like to.

Similar to Javier Zhong’s private residence, the rules are also extremely strict over here. The servants are only allowed to enter the rooms during their housekeeping hours.

Failure to comply with the rules would get them fired immediately!

To make matters worse, Javier Zhong is the strictest amongst the other Zhong members in enforcing the house rules.

For both houses, he only allows the servants to enter his bedroom for one and a half hours each day to do their housekeeping duties.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

And yes, he personally checks both surveillance cameras daily! No one is allowed to be inside for even a second longer!

To him, the bedroom is a private space and he really dislikes other people entering it.

Hearing that, Stephanie Ruan instantly let out an assuring smile. “If that is what you are concerned about, then don’t worry. Your young master will not scold you when I’m here.”

She then pointed to the girl’s wound, “Treating this is more important than anything else.”

With that, she led the frightened girl toward the sofa where Javier Zhong is at and sat her down… beside him!

“!!…”

While Stephanie Ruan is busy preparing the medication and bandages, the young servant could not stop shivering in fear!

She did not dare to meet the ferocious eyes that are staring straight at her!

It was not like she could defy Stephanie Ruan and escape from this suffocating space, but yet at the same time, she is also well aware that she should not be inside here.

Obviously, Javier Zhong’s ‘kind act’ is done to show his support toward Stephanie Ruan and it is only for her to see.

Do you think he is truly bothered about a little wound on a little servant in the house??

Everyone in the Zhong Family knows that he is way too cold-blooded to care about such trivial matters.

To be honest, if someone had their hand chopped off by accident, he would not even bat an eyelid!

Catching a glimpse of Javier Zhong intimidating the young servant, Stephanie Ruan sat between the two of them and blocked his view of the girl with her face.

With a frown, she said to him. “I asked her to come here. Be nice to her.”

Suddenly seeing her face in view, Javier Zhong immediately softened the look in his eyes.

Well, better be thankful that he is currying favour with Stephanie Ruan. Otherwise, things would not be so simple for this young girl here!

“…”

Thereafter, Stephanie Ruan turned to the young servant and carefully helped her with her bleeding wound.

Within a few minutes, she managed to stop the bleeding and bandaged it up nicely.

“Here you go!”

“Thank you, Madam. Thank you!…” The young servant showed her genuine appreciation and could not stop bowing to Stephanie Ruan with great respect.

It is the first time that someone had shown concern for the young servant. Finally, this house is no longer as cold as it used to be…

And hopefully, it would stay like this…

…

At Zhong Holdings

Dressed in a professional black ruffle sleeve midi dress with a pair of branded high heels, Stephanie Ruan entered the lobby of the company and walked unhesitatingly toward the reception counter.

-Steady clicking sounds-

The lobby is filled with many employees moving around and going about their daily routines.

However, everyone could not help but take notice of Stephanie Ruan’s presence.

Though they did not know who she is, her aura is so strong that every single one of them subconsciously moved out of her way and no one dared to block her path.

It is also not surprising that Stephanie Ruan has managed to catch the attention of the team of receptionists who are situated at the other end of the lobby.

Seeing that she is walking straight toward the counter, their hearts started pounding in an anxious manner.

This is very unusual because they would only react this way when they see their big boss, Javier Zhong…

The team leader quickly moved to the middle of the counter as soon as Stephanie Ruan appeared in front of them.

This can’t be real…

She has never seen such a gorgeous lady before that it almost felt as though she is dreaming right now!!…

But at the same time, she could also feel that this lady is definitely not an easy person to deal with.

Well, don’t ask her why… it’s a woman’s sixth sense and this could not be more than accurate.

Noticing that the team leader is staring at her in a daze while the rest of the receptionists are standing slightly behind their leader, Stephanie Ruan found the situation rather amusing.

Without wasting any time, she asked directly, “Could you tell me where is Chairman Zhong’s office, please?”

“Madam, do you happen to have an appointment with him now?”

“We just checked the system and it showed that Chairman Zhong is not expecting any external visitors today.”

The team leader kindly updated her with a slightly confused expression.

“I don’t think I need to book an appointment to see him. Check with him again for me, please.”

Though Stephanie Ruan is smiling gently at them, she spoke in an authoritative tone that left them with no room to reject her request.

“Also, I have a big box of things over here.”

She pointed to the delivery man standing behind her and added on, “Could you also tell him to come down and help me with it?”

“??!!…”
