The commotion must have alarmed the guards outside.
Xia Zhisu saw the guards come in and ordered, "The butler is an inside agent of the Ling Family, arrest him."
The guards were a bit stunned, but they still followed the young madam's orders.
They detained the butler.
Guard Jing Rui also came in, not surprised to see the butler being captured.
Seeing a bit of blood at the corner of Xia Zhisu's mouth, Jing Rui walked to the bottom of the stairs, concerned, "Young madam, are you hurt?"
"I'm fine, take him away." Xia Zhisu said.
Jing Rui glanced at Ling Tian'ao holding Xia Zhisu, though puzzled, he still bowed and retreated.
"Young master, wake up! Don't be deceived by this woman!" The butler, though captured, was still loyally shouting.
Watching the butler being taken away, Xia Zhisu looked up at the man beside her, "Thank you!"
Realizing, she was still in his embrace.
This embrace was still so solid and reliable, worth her leaning on.
