Du Jiu Sheng had arranged another room for her, which was across from his.
The room was decorated in a simple, natural, and modern style. Compared to the style of the castle, it was very different.
Luo Qing Chen walked around and finally her eyes fell onto the mural on the wall. The mural was very ancient, but it had a very simple and elegant style.
There was a white clothed girl and a red clothed girl. They were both from the back, so she couldn't see their faces.
Her eyes finally fell onto the red clothed girl. There was a large patch of red spider lilies blooming behind her, looking very beautiful even with a few strokes.
She felt her breathing stop and her heart couldn't help beating faster.
"Du, du."
"Come in."
Du Jiu Sheng was very polite, he wouldn't forget the difference between men and women just because they were temporary partners.
"Young miss Luo ….." He opened the door and looked at her before saying, "Since we're partners, I'll call you Qing from now on!"
Luo Qingchen said with a nod, "Alright."
Thinking about it, calling her young miss made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
He put the milk in his hand on the table, "Xiao Xi's apologies, I hope you can sleep well tonight."
Luo Qingchen looked at the milk and couldn't help feeling a warm feeling in her heart. She pointed at the painting on the wall and said, "You drew this?"
"It's something I made in my free time." His eyes were a bit surprised as he said, "I occasionally draw things from my dreams."
"Dreams ….. from my dreams ….." She slightly knit her brows as the nightmare that she often dreamed of appeared in her mind.
"Quickly drink the milk and rest early." Du Jiu Sheng softly closed the door and looked at the LCD tablet in his hand with a deep look in his eyes.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Luo Qingchen was lying in bed and it was very quiet around her, she could only hear the 'di, da, di, da' of the clock ringing.
There was an untouched bottle of milk on the bedside table beside her. Her ears moved and she suddenly opened her eyes.
She reached the study on the second floor as fast as she could and found that the bookshelves on both sides had been opened. A long and narrow passage came into view.
Luo Qingchen was about to step forward, but a large hand pulled her firmly, and she fell into a warm embrace.
Just as she was about to retaliate, she heard the other party's cool voice ringing in her ears. "Qing, it's me."
Du Jiu Sheng?!
He pulled her behind the curtain and held his breath as he stared at the entrance of the secret passage in the study.
Not long after, a person wearing a night leather coat walked out.
Luo Qingchen could almost recognize who this person was at a glance — her younger sister, Luo Zijun.
She held half of the Half Life Painting in her hand, and her eyes were full of smiles.
In the next second, she quickly escaped through the window and disappeared into the dark night.
After a while, Du Jiu Sheng pressed the light on the wall and the study was instantly filled with white light.
"What's going on?" Luo Qingchen frowned and jumped away from him, "You don't trust me?"
That glass of milk had sleeping pills in it. It was a small dose, but she could smell it with a sniff.
"I think that she is your little sister, so it's best if you don't participate in tonight's matter." Du Jiu Sheng had received the information that mister X had sent two other people to find the Destiny Life Painting and one of them was Luo Qingchen's little sister.
"Little sister?" She said with a soft laugh, "Her relationship with me isn't as good as mine with Xiao Xi, does sir head understand what I'm saying?"
"Oh?" He raised a brow as a deep look appeared in his eyes, "Sisters falling out because of ….. men?"
"You … …"
