"I hope you can be the one to save the boss. If you need my help, I'll help you."
An also expressed his support for Han Yueyao's crush on Su Yu.
"Thank you, An."
"Don't thank me. It's too distant."
"Then don't call me Miss Han. Just call me Big Yaoyao."
"Okay."
After the phone call, they fell asleep.
– At 5 AM –
South Hill Manor was deathly silent …
In the winter in the north, the days were especially short and the nights were especially long.
Most of the time, the sun didn't rise until 7 AM, so many companies would arrange the morning shift to 8: 30 or 9 AM.
At 5 AM, the sky was still dark and the entire castle was quiet.
Huo Mien got up in her white nightgown. She walked barefoot on the luxurious floor, making no sound as if a feather fell on the floor.
She walked slowly as if she was sizing up the structure of the house.
When she passed by the study, she saw Qin Chu asleep on the table.
When she saw Qin Chu, her eyes were different. There seemed to be a hidden light in them.
She was about to push open the door when she heard a voice behind her.
"Mommy …"
Startled, Huo Mien turned her head with a cold expression.
Three seconds later, she smiled. "Pudding, why are you up?"
"I'm thirsty. There's no water in the room. I want to drink water. I'm a little scared. Mommy, can you accompany me downstairs?"
"Sure. Let's go. Mommy will take you."
With that, Huo Mien walked downstairs.
Pudding reached out to hold her hand.
But when she touched her fingertips, she felt a bone-chilling coldness, making her shiver unconsciously.
She immediately let go of her.
Then, she took two steps back, looking a little scared.
"What's wrong? Pudding? "
"Mommy … Your hand … is frighteningly cold."
"I'm still sick because I lost the baby … I'll be fine after a while. Don't worry about me, okay?"
Huo Mien's tone was already very gentle, but for some reason, Pudding felt that Huo Mien wasn't very friendly at all.
She quietly followed Huo Mien to the pantry.
The floor of the pantry was warm because it was geothermal.
She turned on a small, dim light.
Then, he poured water for Pudding. Just then, a black cat appeared out of nowhere.
She pounced on Huo Mien, causing her to knock over the glass of water.
In the past, Huo Mien's subconscious reaction would have been to scream in fear.
But she didn't. Pudding clearly saw her react very quickly. She grabbed the black cat off her body and kicked it away.
The black cat was kicked until it cried out in pain and fell to the ground. It seemed to have suffered a serious injury.
Pudding was so scared that she retreated to the door.
"Pudding, don't be scared … Mommy has subdued the cat …"
Huo Mien looked at Pudding and smiled. But in the night, her smile seemed creepy.
"Mommy … Why … You used to like Blackie a lot?"
Huo Mien's expression changed slightly when she heard that.
The black cat was originally a stray. Later on, it kept sneaking into South Hill Manor to steal food.
When it was caught by the gardener, Huo Mien told him not to hit it because it was pitiful.
She even gave it a name, Little Black, and then raised it.
Blackie went somewhere to play and came back every night to look for food. After eating, it would sleep in the pantry because it was warm and there was cat food.
It had always been close to Huo Mien and had never hurt anyone in the family.
Sometimes, Pudding would give it cake. Pudding didn't know why it was so mean.
Most importantly, Huo Mien's reaction was very violent. That kick almost paralyzed the cat.
Pudding was so scary …
"What's wrong? What happened? "Qin Chu had come downstairs at some point, and his tall figure was standing at the door.
