When Xia Ying returned to the Everlasting City from the coffee shop, the masked guy had already been waiting for her for a while.

"It's time for work. Where did you run off to?" The masked man's voice was low, obviously unhappy.

Xia Ying's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Could this man have discovered that she had gone to meet Fu Guoqian?

"I want to go down to buy something. I came back when I didn't have anything suitable. What business do you have with me?"

Xia Ying tried her best to keep her tone as calm as possible as she walked behind the masked guy, very attentively wanting to help massage his shoulders.

However, before his hand could touch the masked man's shoulder, he heard another cold berate.

"Move your hand away!"

"Xia Ying, since you can't let Fu Guansan go, I'll grant your wish."

As expected … He still knew.

Xia Ying didn't know what to do and withdrew his hand. His mind was blank and he didn't know how to react.

"I just wanted to help you. Didn't you want me to gain Shen Peian's trust?"

Xia Ying's voice was very soft. No matter if it was an excuse or a confrontation, she didn't have the confidence.

This man had always been kind to her, but it was too late in the end. Xia Ying's heart was still with Fu Guoqian, and she wasn't willing to let her years of hard work go to waste like this.

"Help me? There was no need! "It's just that I don't wish to see you again when I return to the villa."

Xia Ying knew that she was released the moment the masked man's cold voice sounded.

This man had forcefully kept her by his side for so long, he was finally willing to let her go, but why didn't Xia Ying feel happy at all?

"I know."

She wanted to go back to the villa to pack her things, but she didn't know where she should go next.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Ying finally pushed the door open and walked out. This caused the mask to feel a wave of heartache.

He still had some feelings for Xia Ying.

As for Xia Xingyu's side, just as they were about to sleep, they suddenly heard many knocks from the new servants on their door.

"Mister, Madam! There's a woman outside who wants to see you. "

A look of distress appeared on Duoduo's face. It was obvious that she had been disturbed quite a bit. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come looking for them at this time.

Xia Xingyu frowned as she couldn't remember who would come looking for her at this time. If Zhang Meng couldn't get in, she would definitely make a call.

Could it be Zhang Qingge?

Shen Pei An had no plans to go down. Since he was a woman, it would be inconvenient for him to go down there.

"I'll go take a look."

Xia Xingyu and Shen Peian said goodbye to each other, and then walked downstairs, with Duo Duo right behind them.

"Open the door and let her in!" Xia Xingyu poured herself a cup of warm water and sat on the sofa, waiting.

She guessed that it was most likely Zhang Qingge, so she didn't go straight to the door to see who it was.

However, when that woman followed Duoduo in, Xia Xingyu was very surprised.

"Why is it you?"

Xia Xingyu would never have thought that the woman who had disturbed them in the middle of the night was actually Xia Ying. Furthermore, Xia Ying was carrying his luggage at this time, as if he was planning to stay the night.

As soon as he saw Xia Xinyu, Xia Ying's eyes reddened, and tears started to fall from her eyes. She was very good at acting weak, but normally, she would not do that in front of the masked guy.

After all, there were too few people in this world who truly treated her well.

"Big sister, I have nowhere to go now. Please take me in."

Xia Ying walked forward and knelt in front of Xia Xingyu, her usual arrogant and despotic attitude was in stark contrast.

Xia Xingyu's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice. She subconsciously wanted to reject it, but then she suddenly thought of something and changed her mind.

"You have such a big backer, where would I be able to take you in?" Xia Ying, what exactly are you trying to sing? "

Xia Xingyu's merciless tone made Xia Ying feel even more wronged. She curled her lips …

"I was driven out by him, so elder sister, I beg you, please take me in."

Xia Ying's words were full of sincerity. Xia Xingyu almost believed her, but … Xia Ying being chased out without her backer was clearly a good thing for her.

Why did she help the woman who killed her mother?

Seeing Xia Xingyu's cold expression, Xia Ying's heart felt like it was about to sink to the bottom.

It seemed that Xia Xinyu and her fake intentions were only for the masked guy's sake. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have said that he had been chased out.

With this thought, she raised her posture and got up from the ground. Then, she sat beside Xia Xingyu.

"If you don't take me in, then forget it. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have put you in my eyes. There's no need for me to find an opportunity to work with you!"

Cooperation? The corner of Xia Xingyu's lips curled up as he recalled that they indeed had a "common" idea in Fu Guoqian's world.

"Wait a moment, let me ask the owner if he agrees!"

Xia Xingyu said and went upstairs. She really couldn't stand Xia Ying's posture of pretending to be sad.

Xia Ying looked at first pitifully, then arrogant, causing Xia Xingyu to be unable to accurately judge Xia Ying's purpose in coming here.

That was why she needed Shen Peian's analysis to make up her mind.

"Who's here?"

Shen Peian could faintly hear some movement, but he wasn't sure who it was.

"It's Xia Ying. She said that she was chased out and told me to take her in. Do you think this could be the plan of that Mister Huo?"

Xia Xingyu asked while thinking about the possibility of this.

Hearing this, Shen Pei An was startled for a moment, but he did not directly answer. Obviously, he did not expect it to be Xia Ying.

"Do you think there's a way to get along with her?" Shen Pei An suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with the matter.

Xia Xingyu thought for a moment, then answered, "It's not a problem to get along with her, but it's not necessarily possible to get along with her in peace!"

"Then let her stay. As a price, let her explain the situation of Mr. Huo!" Shen Peian was quite interested in that Mr. Huo.

"Alright."

After listening to Shen Peian's words, Xia Xingyu felt somewhat reassured.

She walked downstairs and got Duoduo to prepare a guest room for Xia Ying on the first floor. Afterwards, she made a cup of tea and served it to Xia Ying.

"I've taken you in. Do you have anything to repay me with?"

Xia Xingyu placed the tea in front of Xia Ying, and her smiling expression made Xia Ying feel a little uncomfortable.

However, when she left the masked guy, her body had been cleansed. Now that she was here, it was like a snack. If she didn't cooperate, it wouldn't be right for her to be in the outside world.

She picked up the cup of tea and sipped at it before asking.

"Tell me, what do you want to know?"
