Shi Sheng didn't greet her and went straight back to his room.
In any case, there weren't many people here who liked her. Their attitude towards her as a young miss was that she was dispensable.
Ji Xiaoyu wanted to ask who that pretty girl was, but Bei Ze's expression was so ugly that she didn't dare to say anything. She finished her homework and went back to work.
At night, she didn't see Shi Sheng come down for dinner. This made Ji Xiaoyu even more curious.
She secretly asked the housekeeper, Uncle He.
"Uncle He, I saw a very pretty girl in the courtyard this afternoon. Who is she?"
"Oh, that's our young miss. She just came back today."
"Young miss?" Ji Xiaoyu was astonished. She always thought that the Bei family only had one Young Master, Bei Ze. How could there be a young miss?
"Don't ask too much about this." Uncle He glanced at Ji Xiaoyu. He was an old man in the family and knew many things.
Although he sympathized with Bei Zhi, this was the family's business. It wasn't something they could ask about.
Ji Xiaoyu said, "Oh." When she heard Bei Ze calling her from outside, she hurriedly ran out.
…
Shi Sheng was eating in his room. Lawyer Yan had prepared all the things she needed to go to Alice's school. She was bored and was looking at them one by one.
Kilt, British leather shoes, a blue jacket, a white shirt, and a bow tie …
She really was a student!
Shi Sheng suddenly heard the sound of a door opening and closing outside.
Her room was on the third floor, while Bei Ze's room was on the fourth.
There shouldn't be anyone on the third floor. The only possibility was Ji Xiaoyu.
Just as she thought this, she heard a commotion from next door.
In this villa, only the study and a few recreational rooms were soundproof.
The noise didn't stop, and Shi Sheng was annoyed.
What was Ji Xiaoyu doing? Why was she making such a big commotion? Was she tearing down the house?
Shi Sheng put on his slippers and went out. He knocked on the door for about a minute before the door was opened. Music poured out from inside.
Ji Xiaoyu was panting heavily in her dance uniform. She was stunned when she saw the person standing outside.
"What are you doing? Tearing down the house? "Shi Sheng was very rude." If you don't rest, then I'll rest. "
Ji Xiaoyu hurriedly ran in and turned off the music. She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Miss. I forgot that you live next door."
F * ck, whose house is this?!
"What's wrong?" Bei Ze's voice came from the stairs. His voice was cold, as if he had been disturbed.
"I was the one who disturbed the Young Miss when I was practicing," Ji Xiaoyu said in a low voice.
Bei Ze glanced at Shi Sheng. "I allowed her to practice here. If you're disturbed, you can move downstairs."
"… Is she the servant or am I the servant? Do I have to make room for her?"
Bei Ze frowned and raised his voice. "Don't be unreasonable."
Am I being unreasonable?
If I wanted to be unreasonable, I would've already chopped you all up.
"What did I say wrong?" Shi Sheng looked into Bei Ze's eyes.
Her eyes were pitch-black and extremely cold. Fragments of light dotted the bottom of her eyes, sparkling like diamonds.
Bei Ze was a little dazed.
"I'm sorry, Miss. Young Master. Don't quarrel. It's my fault. I don't want to practice anymore." Ji Xiaoyu saw that the two were about to quarrel and hurriedly spoke up.
"Practice. Don't worry about her." Bei Ze looked away from Shi Sheng and walked over. He pushed Ji Xiaoyu into the room and slammed the door shut. Then, music began to play. This time, it was much louder than before.
Shi Sheng: "…" Your uncle!
Do you think I can't deal with you bunch of brats?
Villas like this all had their own power supply. Shi Sheng felt around the villa's main power switch and pulled down all the switches.
The villa, which had been brightly lit just a moment ago, instantly fell into darkness and returned to silence.
In order to prevent the power from coming back too quickly, Shi Sheng took out his Iron Sword and cut off several main circuits.
Bei Ze never would've thought that Shi Sheng would do such a thing. He only thought that it was a circuit fault and asked the housekeeper to take a look.
However, the housekeeper called back and said that the circuit was damaged and couldn't be fixed in a short time. He suspected it was man-made and asked the servants to quickly inspect the villa.
"Is there no electricity?" Ji Xiaoyu looked up and asked Bei Ze.
"Mm." Bei Ze didn't know what to think, but he didn't respond after that.
Ji Xiaoyu didn't seem to notice Bei Ze's abnormality. "Then I'll go get some candles."
There weren't many candles left in the villa. The servants had to work, so there were only two left. Ji Xiaoyu took them and lit them up.
Bei Ze stood in front of the window, not moving at all. His entire person seemed a bit strange.
"Hey, what's wrong with you!" Ji Xiaoyu frowned and poked his back. "Are you afraid of the dark?"
Bei Ze didn't react at all.
"Are you really afraid of the dark?" Ji Xiaoyu muttered. Just as she was about to walk in front of him, Bei Ze suddenly turned around, walked to the candles, and took one out.
"Where are you going? Hey, you're walking so fast. The candles are going to go out." Ji Xiaoyu stumbled after Bei Ze.
The flame in Bei Ze's hand was already very low, and it looked like it would go out at any moment.
Hearing Ji Xiaoyu's words, he paused for a moment. After the flame went out, he continued walking.
Finally, he stopped in front of the Shi Sheng's door.
He raised his hand to knock on the door, but his hand stopped in midair for a long time. Finally, he turned to look at Ji Xiaoyu. "Knock on the door and give her the candle."
Bei Ze handed the candle to Ji Xiaoyu, then turned around and walked upstairs.
"You only know how to order me around," Ji Xiaoyu muttered. Ji Xiaoyu muttered. She knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time. She knocked again, but there was still no response.
Just as she was hesitating whether or not to open the door, Bei Ze, who had just left, came back. He reached out and opened the door.
Under the moonlight, she could see that the bed was a mess, but there was clearly no one there.
Ji Xiaoyu watched as Bei Ze circled around the room. Then, he rushed out of the room and ran downstairs.
Uncle He was in the middle of having the servants inspect the villa when Bei Ze suddenly rushed downstairs. They were all startled, thinking that someone was chasing after him.
"Did you see her?"
Uncle He was puzzled. "Wasn't Xiaoyu with the Young Master?" Just now, Xiaoyu came to take the candle. Could it be that she was caught by criminals?
"It's not Ji Xiaoyu."
Uncle He finally reacted. "The young miss should be in her room. I didn't see her come down."
"She's not here," Bei Ze quickly said.
Without waiting for Uncle He to reply, he continued, "She's afraid of the dark. Send someone to look for her."
Uncle He also remembered that the young miss was afraid of the dark, so he hurriedly ordered people to look for her.
He was most worried that the young miss had run into some bad people.
Ji Xiaoyu was also dragged along and joined the search party.
She felt that it was unfair. These rich young misses were just too willful. They disappeared just like that. Didn't they know that they would implicate many people?
Evil capitalists.
