Chapter 470 Restraint
But he knew he couldn't show these emotions, so he had to suppress all his unease and anxiety and pretend to be nonchalant and indifferent.
He slowly lowered his head, his brows furrowed slightly, and a thoughtful look flashed in his deep eyes.
After a brief pause, she finally raised her head, looked directly at Li Luo in front of her, and said in a tone that seemed calm but actually concealed anxiety:
"But if we delay any longer, and you don't hurry inside to stop them, Tu Shanlong might really do something reckless and attack Lady Yuyang...!"
"By then, the situation will inevitably spiral out of control! How will we handle that?"
Li Luo turned around anxiously, her face full of worry as she stared at Tu Shan Yan. Her lips trembled slightly as she spoke urgently:
"Ah Yan, the situation is critical! We can't just sit here and do nothing!"
"Please, please go in and stop this from happening, or it might turn into an irreversible tragedy!"
After saying that, she unconsciously tightened her grip on Tu Shanyan's hand, her watery eyes filled with pleading light, as if she could immediately breathe a sigh of relief if Tu Shanyan nodded.
However, Tu Shanyan suddenly threw a tantrum, like a willful child.
He swung his arm, breaking free from Li Luo's grasp, and coldly replied with an indifferent expression:
"Hmph, what can they do? Let them fight if they want... What does it have to do with me anyway? I'm just a pathetic wretch abandoned by my family and nobody cares about me."
Upon hearing this, Li Luo's heart sank. She stared wide-eyed in disbelief at Tu Shan Yan's cold face, her voice rising slightly, a hint of accusation in her voice as she softly called out:
"Ah Yan...do you really not care? Or are you just pretending not to care?"
At this moment, her gaze was like two blazing flames, shooting straight at Tu Shanyan, trying to see through his true thoughts.
Faced with Li Luo's worried and pleading gaze, Tu Shan Yan turned his head slightly away, avoiding her direct eye contact.
After a moment of silence, he slowly turned his head to look at Li Luo again, his expression still calm, but his eyes were filled with unwavering determination as he comforted her:
"Don't worry, Li Luo."
"Isn't the Tushan clan chief still inside?"
"Given his prestige and ability, those people probably won't dare to make a move easily. Let's wait and see what happens."
"But... are you really sure?"
"Although the Tushan clan chief is highly respected, everyone knows that he is a notorious 'two-faced slave' in Qingqiu!"
"What if he takes sides? Wouldn't things get even worse?"
Li Luo frowned with worry, still feeling uneasy.
Li Luo asked doubtfully, her heart still filled with worry.
Li Luo didn't believe that Tu Shan Qi could handle this matter, after all, Tu Shan Qi was a well-known double slave in Qingqiu.
She sighed and asked Tu Shanyan in disbelief.
"What do you mean...?" Tu Shanyan stared at Li Luo with a suspicious look, his bright eyes filled with incomprehension and confusion.
Li Luo calmly and slowly spoke:
"Oh dear, that's exactly what I'm talking about. That man is not only a complete doting father to his daughter, but also a total henpecked husband...!"
