Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

Huo Wanqing smiled and nodded, then opened the iron gate of the courtyard and let them enter the Lan family.

Just as Huo Wanqing was leading everyone into the Lan family's hall like a hostess, the little maid who had been looking for Garland in vain saw this scene.

"Ms. Huo, what are you doing?"

"Strangers entering the Lan family need Lan Dian's personal consent. How could you let someone in on your own initiative?"

The little maid looked at the group of policemen behind Huo Wanqing in surprise, and felt panic in her heart.

How could she explain to Garland why she let the police into the Lan family without Garland's consent!

Besides, Lord Yuri had just issued the order in the afternoon.

Whenever the police station calls or someone visits, they must report it and get Garland's personal approval before letting anyone in!

It's over! She's completely finished!

"When Director Liu comes to visit the Lan family, of course he must be invited in! If you don't even know this little bit of etiquette, are you worthy of being a servant of the Lan family?!"

Huo Wanqing frowned, very dissatisfied with the little maid questioning her behavior in front of so many outsiders.

As she spoke, her tone became sharp and she acted like the mistress of the Lan family.

"I…"

The little maid had only been there for a short time, so she had never been treated so harshly before. Besides, the superiors in the Lan family would never scold their servants like this.

For a moment, he was frightened by Huo Wanqing's cold eyes and opened his mouth, unable to speak.

"What are you standing there for? Go and prepare refreshments for the guests!!"

Huo Wanqing crossed her arms and raised her voice, becoming more and more ferocious towards the little maid.

She had long disliked the Lan family's servants, even though they used to be polite on the surface.

But Huo Wanqing knew in her heart that no one in the Lan family took her seriously!

Whether it was when Garland doted on her or after she was engaged to Garland.

She has never been able to order the more experienced servants of the Lan family around.

Today, this little maid ran into trouble, and Huo Wanqing finally got the chance to vent her anger.

"Yes…"

The little maid seemed to want to say something else, but when she saw the embarrassed expressions on the faces of the policemen behind Huo Wanqing, she responded and retreated.

No matter what, we must not lose the Lan family's etiquette in front of outsiders.

After the maid came to the kitchen, she immediately called Yuri.

"Master Yuri, Chief Liu is here!"

After Yuri answered the phone, the little maid quickly reported in a low voice.

"Didn't we just give the order to reject all requests?"

Yuri frowned, somewhat puzzled as to why he would call him for such a trivial matter.

"I originally stopped the person outside the gate and wanted to seek Lan Dian's opinion, but Miss Huo brought the person in herself!"

The little maid took a deep breath, her voice still trembling.

She was too afraid of being implicated because of Huo Wanqing's self-willed behavior today.

"I understand. Don't let the little prince show up!"

Yuri paused, hung up the phone and cursed, "Huo Wanqing is more of a hindrance than a help!"

The most urgent task is to contact Garland as soon as possible, and then find a way to take Evelyn out of the Lan family quietly!

However, after two calls, Garland showed no intention of answering the call, and Yuri was a little panicked for a moment.

At the Lan family's side, Huo Wanqing was chatting with Director Liu with great interest. She thought she was very smooth and tactful and that Director Liu would definitely look at her with a higher regard.

She now needs to get to know more powerful people, including those who work for the state, as they will be useful in the future.

No matter how much she had been through, she always understood one thing: it was useless to cling to Garland, after all, Garland's heart was not with her.

Only if she has enough chips and power in her hands can she ensure that she can rest assured.

"Miss, when will Lan Dian be able to come back?"

Director Liu seemed a little impatient and seemed annoyed by Huo Wanqing's chattering.

Officer Li observed the situation and sensed Chief Liu's mood change, so he quickly interrupted Huo Wanqing and asked about the new topic she had raised.

"It should be soon. I can't contact Garland right now."

Huo Wanqing frowned. She had never contacted Garland at all.

She believed that the Lan family’s servants would immediately notify the Garland Police Station to send someone, and she hoped to see Evelin being shackled and put into the police car in front of everyone!

"Your Highness, your dinner."

The little maid pushed the dining cart to Evelin's door, knocked on it, and spoke softly.

After a while, Evelin opened the door with a puzzled look on her face. She didn’t inform the servants to eat in the room.

"How did it get here?"

"It's like this, I saw that there were not many people at home, so I thought you were not going to the restaurant for dinner."

"So I took the initiative to send it to you."

The little maid didn't dare to look up, she lowered her eyes and avoided answering.

Evelyn narrowed her eyes, stared at her eyelashes which were blinking very unnaturally, and nodded.

"Who's coming downstairs?"

Hearing Evelin's affirmative question, the little maid's heart trembled, and she felt that it was over, and she was discovered.

"Since Lord Lan is still busy, is the young prince at home?"

Director Liu took a sip of tea, and after about ten minutes, he decided to get down to business first.

Huo Wanqing’s heart skipped a beat, she wouldn’t allow Evelin to be taken away so quietly!

It has to be done in front of everyone! In front of Garland!

“Maybe Evelyn went out with Garland to do some errands. I haven’t seen her today.”

"Director Liu, have you had dinner yet? Why don't you stay and have dinner together?"

"They should be back soon."

Huo Wanqing replied with an unnatural smile. She had long since mastered the skill of lying without thinking.

So he lied without blushing or feeling nervous, and his unnatural movements were just because he was worried that the maid would do something bad.

But on second thought, once Garland knew that someone from the police station was coming, he would definitely notify the servants to do everything possible to prevent Evelin from appearing in front of Director Liu.

Thinking of this, Huo Wanqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was no longer too worried.

However, the next second, a voice came from upstairs that surprised everyone.

"Director Liu, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person."

Everyone turned around and saw Evelin, with delicate makeup and a burgundy dress, walking down the stairs gracefully.

"Your Highness, long time no see."

Director Liu immediately stood up and bowed respectfully to Evelin.

And his expression changed from his previous indifference to Huo Wanqing, and he put on a respectful attitude, greeting Evelin carefully.

Standing next to Director Liu, Huo Wanqing watched all his movements and expressions. She clenched her teeth, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.

She remembered everything that happened today thoroughly.
