Chapter 1105 - Something Is Going to Happen (1/2)
The girl exclaimed and he looked very confused.
However, Helian Weiwei did not expect her to really keep watch. With that youth, Jing Zifeng around, he would tell her if anything happened.
Helian Weiwei smiled and disappeared with Baili Jiajue.
She did not know that after she left, a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness shone faintly towards her back…
“Auntie Zhang, do you need my help?”
It turned out that Helian Weiwei didn’t go outside at all, but came to the innermost kitchen of the villa.
Auntie Zhang was hiding something in her heart, so when Helian Weiwei suddenly called out to her, she accidentally dropped the ladle in her hand.
Helian Weiwei looked at the way she behaved and concluded that there was indeed a problem.
“There’s no need.” Auntie Zhang turned around and smiled awkwardly at Helian Weiwei. “It’s easy to cook for ten odd people. Captain Jiang couldn’t come back, so my original plans of making a huge feast for all of you isn’t going to happen anymore. I’ll just have to cook curry chicken and a winter melon and meatball soup. You will feel warmer after drinking it.”
Helian Weiwei smiled and replied, “Okay.” But she didn’t leave. Instead, she sat at the side and used one hand to support her cheek as she looked at Auntie Zhang with a smile.
Anyone would feel a little uncomfortable if they were looked at like this. Auntie Zhang turned on the fire and was stunned when she turned around and found Helian Weiwei looking at her. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, I just have something to talk to Auntie Zhang about.” Helian Weiwei curled her lips upwards. “Auntie Zhang has been working for the Song family for a long time, right?”
“Yes, I’ve been here since Young Mistress was born, so it’s been twenty years,” Sister Zhang replied gently. She thought Helian Weiwei was hungry, so she took a cooked meatball and handed it to her. “You can eat this first.”
After doing this, she seemed to have realized something, so she wiped her hands on the ap.r.o.n and explained, “It’s not dirty, I just washed my hands. I’ll take another one for you instead.”
Helian Weiwei didn’t wait for her to get another meatball and just directly grabbed hold of Auntie Zhang’s wrist and ate it. “It’s very delicious, just a little hot.”
Only then did Auntie Zhang smile and seemed less reserved now. “There’s still a lot here. In the past, Young Mistress also liked to eat this.”
After Helian Weiwei ate the meatball, she took another one and turned her head to feed it to a certain highness who was standing behind her.
A certain highness obviously rejected this kind of thing. “You eat it.”
Helian Weiwei threw him a look that clearly despised him for not recognizing good food, then stuffed the meatball into her mouth. Both her cheeks were swollen from munching the meatball.
Sister Zhang cut the potatoes and said with a smile, “You really look like how Young Mistress used to, how very adorable.”
Helian Weiwei felt shy when an older person complimented her and her ears turned a little red. But even so, she still didn’t forget the purpose of her coming here, “Auntie Zhang, do you know something but didn’t want to say it earlier?”
Auntie Zhang suddenly stopped chopping the vegetables and she looked at Helian Weiwei as if she did not think that a girl who was younger than Song Tongtong would be this clever.
“Is it about Miss Song?” Helian Weiwei’s next sentence hit the main point. “Actually, the situation isn’t like what General Song said, so she’s actually been outside before, right?”
“Yes. ” Sister Zhang let out a long sigh and looked a little absent-minded. “Young Mistress fell down from upstairs some time ago and the injury on her face hasn’t recovered yet. She indeed rarely leaves the house, but sometimes she does. Old Master doesn’t come home often, and he… always doesn’t care enough about Young Mistress. Young Mistress lost her parents at a very young age, so she never had anyone to play with growing up. It wasn’t easy for her to have this group of good friends when she finally reached high school.”
“Unfortunately, fate plays tricks on people. Ever since she came back from the seaside, she seemed to be traumatized and rarely returned home, always going out to play. Sometimes, she would even bring some people from G.o.d knows where to the courtyard. I know that Young Mistress is just too lonely and wants someone to accompany her. But my heart really aches to see her like this.”
“So you helped her hide the fact that she actually just came out of her room.” Helian Weiwei raised her eyebrows.
Auntie Zhang immediately paused and became agitated. “It’s not Young Mistress! Miss, you have to believe me! A person like Young Mistress would not kill anyone. Even if she has become different from before, she would not hurt anyone!”
“I did not say that she must be the murderer,” Helian Weiwei comforted Auntie Zhang. “There are so many suspects now, Miss Song is only one of them.”
Auntie Zhang leaned against the chopping board and just heaved a sigh of relief.
