C181 Lemon Water
The furnishings in the room were vintage and gave off an ancient aura. The sandalwood fragrance lingered in the air, but what followed was a different kind of pressure.
Lo Xi's breath paused. After she looked around, the fear in her eyes slowly disappeared.
She could not panic. She had to calm down.
She tightly clenched her fists. Her nails were tightly embedded in her palm. The pain made her sober up a lot.
The faces of the few people beside her were also reflected in her pupils.
There were a total of five people around her. Two of them were the ones she had beaten up earlier, two of them were the ones who took the gunny sack and took her away, and the last one... was the housekeeper here.
The four people in front wore black uniforms. They were uniform and looked like well-trained bodyguards. The last one was the housekeeper who wore a Tang suit, which matched the style of the house.
Among the five of them, the most dignified one was the housekeeper.
The steward sized Lo Xi up and frowned slightly. When he saw Lo Xi's clear eyes, the housekeeper looked at the four of them with some displeasure and asked, "Didn't you say that you were drugged? It did not seem like you were drugged."
The butler's words were very rigid, and he gave off an imposing aura that was neither angry nor angry.
The four people were trembling with fear. One of them said, "That medicine has an intermittent effect, and it hasn't really started to act up yet. This girl was sold to my grandpa. Of course, when she does flare up, it has to be when my grandpa is around. "
Lo Xi's face darkened. These people's words were not taboo for her to be present. They were also not afraid of her escaping at all.
She moved her lips and her throat was a little hoarse. She said, "Do you have water?"
The others looked at her in shock. They did not expect that she would still be so calm at this time.
Lo Xi's throat was very uncomfortable. She endured the discomfort and continued, "Give me some lemon water. Can I?"
The others all looked at the butler.
The butler nodded and said, "Go and get it for her. It's in the fridge. I haven't returned yet, so I'll let this little girl take a break first. "
In any case, she was drugged, so she wouldn't be able to run away for a while.
Soon, each of them brought a glass of lemon water and handed it to Lo Xi.
Lo Xi just sat there and calmly received it.
She drank a few big mouthfuls of lemon water and her hands began to shake involuntarily. Her hands loosened and the glass fell on the carpet.
The butler frowned slightly. Seeing her like this, he felt a little more at ease.
From the looks of it, there would not be any disturbances...
"You can sit up. Don't worry. If you behave obediently, I will take care of you a little." The butler said to Lo Xi in a formal tone without any emotion.
Lo Xi did not say anything. Her hands tightened and then loosened. This repeated a few times. She supported the chair by the side and slowly stood up.
She looked very obedient, but she hid it behind her back.
She took a few steps back and leaned against the wooden chair. She asked without batting an eyelid, "Who sold me to your grandpa?"
The butler frowned and said to Lo Xi, "Little girl, don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
Lo Xi curled the corner of her lips and said, "Have you found out who I am?"
The housekeeper sneered and said, "Is it important who you are? The important thing is... whoever our grandpa likes, it is his fortune. If you behave obediently, our grandpa will still pity you a little more. You have to know that over the years, there have been many people who want to climb into my grandpa's bed."
The smile on Lo Xi's lips paused for a moment. It was extremely cold.1
