Quan Jingzhou had underestimated Quan Jue. The internet was aflame with negative opinions about the Quan family. All the dirty secrets behind this wealthy, glamorous family had been dug out.

Even though he tried his best to delete and block the negative posts, the netizens had already stored all the evidence on their side. They were unwilling to let go of the Quan family, which appeared nice and shiny on the outside, but was rotten on the inside. They posted all kinds of new information and continued to discuss it heatedly.

Negative news about the Quan family was like wild grass that could not be burned by fire.

The Quan Corporation’s share price had plummeted. All the major board members and business partners were complaining to him today.

Ever since Quan Jingzhou inherited the Quan Corporation and became the head of the Quan family, he had always acted high and mighty.

But today, after being attacked by so many people, he had no power to resist. He was filled with anger.

Now, he only hoped to see Lu Xian and let her comfort with gentleness and patience.

Therefore, when he saw her on the sofa, Quan Jingzhou smiled in relief. “Lu Xian, why aren’t you saying anything?”

Lu Xian looked at Quan Jingzhou, the man who had restricted her freedom. She suddenly felt that her love for him had faded a little.

He had disappointed her.

For some reason, Lu Xian felt that this trace of disappointment was especially familiar. It was as if she had experienced something similar before. However, she couldn’t remember anything, making her feel increasingly frustrated.

“Jingzhou, I want to go home,” Lu Xian suddenly said as she looked straight ahead.

Quan Jingzhou’s lips twitched for a moment.

However, after a moment, he regained his calm expression. “Why do you want to go back? Did the people here not serve you well enough? If you don’t like these maids, I can change them all.”

“No, it has nothing to do with them. I just don’t want to be locked up here,” Lu Xian said with a frown.

The veins on Quan Jingzhou’s forehead twitched. “Lu Xian, you know why I brought you here. I love you, so I want to be with you. Many people will stop us if you stay in the Xu family. I know you like me too. Whatever you want, I can give it to you. Be obedient and give me some time. I can definitely let you officially be with me.”

“I… I admit that I like you a lot. But Jingzhou, liking someone shouldn’t be like that. My brother doesn’t agree with me being with you. Moreover, I was married to Yichen. I haven’t sorted everything out yet, so how can I be with you? You have restricted me so much. Do you not trust me at all?” Lu Xian heaved a long sigh. “I hope you can give me time and trust me to deal with all of this myself.”

“You want me to let you go?” Quan Jingzhou’s anger was ignited. He walked to Lu Xian’s side, already on the verge of exploding.

“Yes.” Lu Xian didn’t want to fall out with him, either. Thus, she tried her best to soften her tone. “I’ve been here for so long, but I haven’t contacted my brother or Quan Jue. He must be very anxious.”

It would have been better if Lu Xian hadn’t mentioned Quan Jue. The moment she mentioned him, the anger and resentment that Quan Jingzhou had suppressed for the entire day exploded!

“Quan Jue! You only have him in your heart! Do you know what he did to the Quan family just to bring trouble for me?! Look at it yourself!” Quan Jingzhou threw his phone in front of Lu Xian.
