Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Talk too much, slap yourself in the face!

Ling Ling was not intimidated by Nan Huiru’s pressure. She looked directly at her, maintaining both distance and respect, and said, "Madam, I am the personal assistant and housekeeper that Mr. Gu specifically hired for Mrs. Gu. If you indiscriminately lock Mrs. Gu up like this, I have no choice but to intervene."

"You’re just a hired servant. A single word from me can have you pack up and leave. Don’t overestimate yourself and meddle where you shouldn’t, or you might not be able to protect yourself," Nan Huiru warned.

"Apologies, but if I accept a salary and don’t do my job, it would be my dereliction of duty," Ling Ling said as she quickly stepped forward, attempting to pry Ji Wei free from the bodyguards’ grip.

The bodyguards, of course, refused to back down, and the two sides began to clash.

Ling Ling’s taekwondo skills were not weak, but as the fight broke out, several other bodyguards stationed at the door quickly rushed in. They soon subdued Ling Ling, immobilizing her.

Nan Huiru shot a contemptuous glance at Ling Ling and, with a cold expression, ordered, "Immediately lock up the Ji Family’s eldest daughter in the bedroom. Without my permission, she is not to be let out!"

"Let go of me! Let me go..."

No matter how Ji Wei struggled, she could not break free from the bodyguards’ grasp. She was forcibly dragged upstairs.
