Chapter 32

Another little secret

Ye Beisheng’s alarm immediately went off. Has she been discovered?

No, no, that’s impossible. Tenth-star was famous in the hacker world. Who would be able to associate Tenth-Star with a beautiful lady like her?

But, this dog had amazing observation skills. What if …?

Ye Beisheng’s eyes darted around, and she decided to strike first, “I didn’t even get the chance to question you! I was chased out of the Ye family. My father didn’t love me, my stepmother didn’t love me, and I didn’t have any money. Understandably, I rented a house here. Why did you come here when you’re loaded? Don’t tell me you’re keeping something that can’t be seen?”

Huo Shiting’s eyes became colder.

Ye Beisheng continued, “Ninth master, you’re someone with such established status. It’s too stingy for you to raise her in this kind of neighborhood! I don’t mind for you to bring her home and keep her there…”

Huo Shiting stopped.

So, she assumed that he had a lover here?

“Ye Beisheng.” The man’s voice was cold.

“Hmm?”

Huo Shiting’s voice was cold and his face had an indifferent look on it. “If you can’t speak properly, cut off your tongue.”

Ye Beisheng instantly fell silent.

She hadn’t forgotten what Huo Shiting had threatened the servants with.

Why did this man have a habit of cutting off other people’s tongues without any warning?!

Huo Shiting went upstairs to the small room, took the information left by his junior, and put it in the inner pocket of his suit.

“Go and check if Ye Beisheng had actually rented a room here,” Huo Shiting gave his orders.

Soon, Lin Long replied, “Ninth master, Madam has indeed rented a house here for the past year and just returned it today. She also took some personal belongings with her. It doesn’t look like she was lying.”

“Alright.”

He went downstairs and glanced at the woman who was standing obediently at the entrance of the corridor. He still had the same look on his face. “Let’s go, Mrs. Huo.”

“Ninth master, there are still a few things that I have to attend to…”

Before she could finish, a short dagger appeared in the man’s hand.

Ye Beisheng looked at the dagger and felt a dull pain in her tongue, so she swallowed the words ‘I’m not going home now’.

Then, she smiled. “You’re right, Ninth Master. I am going home. I’m going home now!”

After getting into the car, Ye Beisheng silently showed Huo Shiting the middle finger.

What a dog!

She was playing with her phone in the car out of boredom when she suddenly heard Lin Long say, “Ninth master, do you need me to go to the jewelry design competition at Qingbei University tomorrow?”

Ye Beisheng’s ears perked up.

Huo Shiting glanced at her and sneered. “There’s no need for it. I’ll head there personally.”

Lin Long subconsciously said, “We only have to pick out a new jewelry designer. Why would you have to be there…”

Lin Long paused suddenly.

How could he have forgotten about it?! The Ninth master’s wife was a student at Qingbei University!

According to Yunchu’s suggestion, Huo Shen International Group should pick a new designer from Qingbei University.

Initially, the Ninth Master did not care about it, but now because his wife was a student at Qingbei University, he has decided to attend it personally.

And you say this isn’t love?

..

After Ye Beisheng returned to her room, she turned on her computer. As expected, she saw a few messages from the person in charge of Huo Shen international.

[Miss Yunchu, we are ready to show our sincerity in working with you on this project. We really hope that Miss Yunchu would be able to meet with our boss to talk about our long-term projects together.]

[Miss Yunchu, don’t you want to see the jewelry design competition at Qingbei University with your own eyes? Personally selecting the talented ones for us?]

[Miss Yunchu, the second daughter of the Ye family, who is also your student, has also applied to participate in the competition. Are you really not coming?]

Ye Beisheng’s fingers paused.

The second young lady of the Ye family …

Ye Anyao?

When did Ye Anyao become her student? How thick-skinned can this woman get?!
