It's not too late to meet in the book
Chapter 12: Sudden change, hidden crisis
After Su Xiaoxiao returned to the Su Mansion, life gradually returned to normal. However, this peace did not last long. Some unusual signs began to appear in the Su Mansion and the surrounding areas, as if an undercurrent was quietly surging.
That day, Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu were strolling in the back garden of the Su residence, enjoying the quiet of the afternoon. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows, while a gentle breeze brought bursts of floral fragrance. Hand in hand, they chatted and laughed, enjoying this rare leisure time.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps shattered the silence. A servant hurried over, reporting nervously, "Miss, this is bad! A group of unidentified people are gathering outside the mansion, and they appear to have ulterior motives!"
Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu's faces froze when they heard this. They looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes. They knew that the Su Mansion, as a famous local family, had always attracted much attention, but there were also people who were jealous or had ulterior motives.
"Let's go and take a look." Su Xiaoxiao said in a deep voice. She took Lin Yu's hand and walked quickly towards the gate of the mansion.
When they arrived at the gate, they saw a group of ragged, fierce-looking men gathered outside, holding sticks and shouting meaningless slogans, as if ready to rush into the Su Mansion at any time.
Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu stood at the gate of the mansion, staring at the group of people coldly. They knew that these people were not good people and they had to be careful in dealing with them.
"Who are you? Why are you surrounding the Su Mansion?" Su Xiaoxiao asked loudly. Although her voice was cold, it revealed unquestionable majesty.
A man who looked like the leader stepped out from the group. He narrowed his eyes, looked Su Xiaoxiao up and down, and then sneered, "Hmph, it doesn't matter who we are. What matters is that we know the Su family is extremely wealthy, but they never care about the common people. Today, we are here to seek justice!"
Su Xiaoxiao's heart trembled upon hearing this. She knew these people were clearly being sent on a mission to cause trouble. But she remained calm, saying, "The Su family has always upheld the principles of benevolence and righteousness and has never done anything wrong. If you have any complaints, please speak up, and we will give you a satisfactory answer."
However, the group did not give up and began to wave their sticks and shout that they were going to rush into the Su Mansion.
Seeing this, Lin Yu immediately stood in front of Su Xiaoxiao and said in a deep voice: "Whoever dares to touch a hair of the Su Mansion, I, Lin Yu, will never let him off easily!"
His voice was not loud, but it revealed an irresistible power. Seeing this, the group of people couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive and stopped in their tracks.
At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly came up with an idea. She turned to Lin Yu and said, "Lin Yu, go and notify the guards in the mansion and ask them to be ready. At the same time, send someone to find out the details of these people and see who is behind them."
Lin Yu nodded and immediately turned and left. Su Xiaoxiao stayed at the gate of the mansion and continued to confront the group of people.
As time passed, the atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense. At this moment, Lin Yu arrived with his guards. They were armed with weapons, ready to fight, and confronted the group.
Su Xiaoxiao also found out the details of those people. It turned out that they were a group of thugs hired by a local bully. The bully had always been dissatisfied with the Su family and ordered these people to cause trouble.
After learning the truth, Su Xiaoxiao was furious. She decided not to tolerate the evil anymore and instead teach the bully a profound lesson.
So, she ordered the guards to surround those people, and then shouted: "Listen, I, Su Xiaoxiao, will not let go of what happened today. If you are willing to tell me who ordered you, I may spare your lives. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!"
When they heard this, their expressions changed. They knew Su Xiaoxiao was no pushover, and if they angered her, the consequences would be disastrous. So, they all began to beg for mercy and named the bully.
When Su Xiaoxiao learned about it, she immediately sent someone to capture the bully. After some interrogation, the bully finally admitted his crime and agreed to compensate the Su family for the losses.
The crisis was finally resolved. Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu smiled at each other, their hearts filled with relief and gratitude. They knew that they were able to escape danger this time thanks to their mutual understanding and cooperation.
As night fell, Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu sat in the pavilion in the back garden, sipping tea and chatting about what happened today.
"Xiaoxiao, what happened today was really thrilling. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." Lin Yu said with emotion.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "This is all thanks to the cooperation between you and the guards. Although our Su family is wealthy, we cannot allow ourselves to be bullied. What happened today can be considered a lesson."
The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with hope and confidence for the future. They knew that as long as they relied on each other, no matter what difficulties and crises they encountered, they could work together to overcome them.
"Lin Yu, what do you think we should do next?" Su Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.
Lin Yu thought about it, and then said seriously: "I think we should strengthen the Su Mansion's vigilance to prevent similar things from happening again. At the same time, we must also find out the forces behind the bully to see if they have any other conspiracies."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement. She knew that although the matter had been resolved, the forces behind it could not be ignored. They had to remain vigilant at all times to ensure the safety and stability of the Su Mansion.
"Okay, then we'll do as you say." Su Xiaoxiao said, "Lin Yu, I really feel at ease with you by my side."
Lin Yu felt warm in his heart when he heard this. He held Su Xiaoxiao's hand tightly and said affectionately: "Xiaoxiao, I will always be by your side, protecting you and supporting you. No matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter in the future, we will face them together and overcome them together."
