Chapter 763 - Plan
Chapter 763: Plan
At the same time, the Dugu Family butler also received news that Su Huiqing had already arrived at the island.
He immediately stood up. “Let’s go and fetch Miss Su!”
“You mean she’s here?” Old Master Dugu was sitting on the chair. His eyes lit up. “Quick, let’s go together.”
Over the past year, he had also sent someone to bring many words to Su Huiqing. He had also secretly gotten someone to send something to her. He was just short of personally visiting her in the wilderness in the north. However, on her side, it seemed like she didn’t welcome the people on their island. He could only give up.
“Don’t.” Upon hearing Old Master’s words, the Dugu Family butler immediately shook his head. “Please don’t. Miss Shuang’er is also coming back today. You better stay here and don’t cause trouble for Miss Su.”
With Old Master Su’s status, even the ancestors of the four major families didn’t have the face to personally welcome him. If he went to fetch Su Huiqing now, wouldn’t it cause a huge commotion?
“Miss Su, this way, please.” The guard beside the outer sect manager brought Su Huiqing and the rest to the Dugu Family’s door and saw his boss bringing Dugu Shuang and the rest over.
After a year, Dugu Shuang and Su Huiqing finally clashed again.
The guard glanced at Dugu Shuang and then at Scarface and the rest beside Dugu Shuang. His heart was filled with envy. Dugu Shuang’s island was the best resource in the Dugu Family. Now, even Scarface was a fourth-level expert. If only he could follow Dugu Shuang…
At this moment, Dugu Shuang also saw Su Huiqing.
Compared to a year ago, Su Huiqing’s aura had undergone an obvious change. She couldn’t tell what was different about Su Huiqing, but she felt that this woman had become even calmer and wasn’t as sharp as before.
Scarface, who was behind Dugu Shuang, also saw Xiao Ba and the rest. He could feel the weak aura on Xiao Ba and the rest. He shook his head mockingly. “As expected, they are still at level two. Luckily, I didn’t go to the north wasteland back then. Otherwise, I would be like them.”
“So it’s Miss Su.” Dugu Shuang came back for Su Huiqing. “Why did you walk to the door? Isn’t there a car coming to fetch you? Manager, have you forgotten the rules?”
Actually, seeing this scene, Dugu Shuang knew that—because the manager went to fetch her; he got the guard to fetch Su Huiqing.
Su Huiqing didn’t even look at Dugu Shuang from the corner of her eyes. With her hands still in her pockets, she walked forward as if no one was around.
This scene made Dugu Shuang frown. However, she didn’t flare up because she saw Butler Dugu walk out of the door. Her eyes lit up. “Butler Dugu.”
Although her tone was calm, there was undisguised excitement in her eyes.
This year, the Dugu Family butler had been too calm towards her. Dugu Shuang knew that the Dugu Family butler was the Old Master’s trusted aide. Getting his recognition was more important than getting the support of an elder.
She thought that it would take some time before the Dugu Family butler would value her. She didn’t expect the Dugu Family butler to personally pick her up today.
The manager was also stunned. He didn’t expect the butler to personally come out to fetch Dugu Shuang. After being shocked, he was even gladder that he had chosen Dugu Shuang. As he spoke, he secretly wiped his sweat.
Unexpectedly, the Dugu Family butler walked straight past Dugu Shuang to Su Huiqing’s side. “Miss Su, you are finally here. Old Master has been waiting for you for a long time. Let’s go in.”
“Alright.” Su Huiqing raised her brows and smiled.
After Su Huiqing left, the Dugu Family butler looked as if he had just seen Dugu Shuang. “Miss Shuang’er, you are here, too?”
“That’s right.” Dugu Shuang’s expression didn’t look too good, but she was still a little thoughtful and didn’t show it. She even smirked.
“Go visit Madam first. I will bring Miss Su to visit Old Master.” The butler nodded and brought Su Huiqing in.
When he spoke to Su Huiqing, his tone was very respectful.
Su Huiqing didn’t feel flattered by Butler Dugu’s attitude. She smiled very casually. “Alright, let’s talk inside.”
The group walked in.
Fifth Brother and the rest also saw Scarface’s mocking gaze, but they were not angry at all. Instead, they smiled. “Speaking of which, we still have to thank Scarface. If he didn’t get someone to do something, we wouldn’t be able to follow Miss Su.”
Xiao Ba also clicked his tongue. “If he finds out what he missed later, he will definitely cry.”
The group of people whispered as they followed Su Huiqing in, ignoring Dugu Shuang and the rest.
Dugu Shuang, this Missy, was left in front of the door just like that. She almost doubted her life.
The manager was even more incredulous. He stood rooted to the ground. “What’s going on? Why isn’t Elder Dugu here to fetch Miss Shuang’er?”
Instead, he was so respectful towards Su Huiqing?
Did they miss something?
Dugu Shuang also didn’t understand Butler Dugu’s attitude. “This damn old man…” She gritted her teeth.” Really…”
“Miss Shuang’er, don’t bother with that old fogey. Our priority now is the mission. How to obtain that mineral vein is more important,” the military officer beside her consoled her.
Dugu Shuang gradually caught her breath. “I know, but it’s not easy to make her take it out…”
“It’s very easy.” The military voice didn’t care. “Isn’t there a competition in the family? When the time comes, let her people compete with your people. As for the bet…”
Dugu Shuang knew what he meant.
The two of them smiled at each other.
