C41 (2/2)

Si Heng gave a faint smile and asked in a profound tone, ”Do you think that the policewoman in the script loves that drug lord?”

Lou Yue stayed silent for a while before she slowly raised her head. ”Love.”

Si Heng did not say that he was right or that he was wrong. He only smiled and said, ”If you have time, come and see Ge Jing's performance again.” He paused for a moment, then suddenly his eyes moved to her watery lips, and for some strange reason, he suddenly reached out and gently wiped the water off her face with his fingertips.

”Alright, it's getting late, let's go to sleep.”

Lou Yue didn't know whether she had passed or not, but she didn't feel like asking. She politely asked, ”Are you leaving?”

Si Heng nodded. According to Commander Fang, the two crew members had been taken to the underground storage just now. It was time to let them go for the next few hours.

”Mm, you should rest early.”

Rest early...

Lou Yue.

All you have to do is quietly wait for the light to shine. Those things you don't want to see, the dark, dirty things, you can have me!

The next morning, Lou Yue was called out by the steward of the Si family.

Lou Yue had slept soundly ever since Siheng left last night. When the butler woke her up, she thought she would be sleeping late at least at ten. She took out her phone and saw that it was only seven o'clock.

The steward of the Si Family looked to be in his early years. Normally, someone this old would still be staying with the customer. He must have accompanied the customer for several generations and had great feelings for the family.

He held onto a walking stick and walked in a shaky way, followed by two little girls who held onto their clothes with both hands.

”Miss Lou, I'm so sorry. My young master has always had this kind of schedule since he was young. He got up too early and disturbed you, right?”

Even though Lou Yue wasn't full, how could she say such a thing? Moreover, she was facing such a benevolent old man. She smiled as she waved her hand. ”No, no, I usually wake up this early.”

The steward smiled until his eyes narrowed, the wrinkles on his face forming a deep furrow. ”Get up and eat breakfast. The young master is waiting for you.”

It was only when they were walking down the stairs that Lou Yue realized what the butler meant by 'waiting'.

Waiting for her.

It turned out that he wasn't waiting for her to eat breakfast. Instead, he was bringing a bunch of unknown people to wait for her. It was a magnificent sight.

Si Heng was sitting there quietly, looking like the leader of the group. He was reading a newspaper while Fang Te Hu stood beside him. When he saw Lou Yue come down, he leaned over and whispered something into Si Heng's ear.

Si Heng raised his head slowly and glanced at her, then signaled to her that breakfast had been prepared and placed on the table, ”Eat, clean up and bring me to a place.”

Lou Yue didn't ask what exactly this place was, but his cleaning must be related to the people standing in the hall. When she sat down at the dining table, she found toast, fried eggs, milk and avocado on the table.

Lou Yue wasn't really hungry and didn't have the habit of eating breakfast, but she still cut off a small piece of protein with her knife and fork. When she put it in her mouth, she suddenly realized that Si Heng was not reading the newspaper.

Lou Yue's chewing on the egg white was a little sluggish. It took her a while before she seemed to have tasted something. She frowned, took out a few toilet papers, and spat out the rest.

”What's wrong?”

Lou Yue looked a little embarrassed. She took a sip of her milk and said, ”It's a bit salty.”

In fact, it wasn't that it was salty, it was very salty. She even wondered if the person who made it had poured the whole pot of salt onto it.
