That hypocritical and cunning hypocrite! Big Brother Yao Chen, who had always been thinking of ways to harm her, was actually trusted by them like family. It was really too laughable!
It was a pity that she couldn't take care of herself right now. Otherwise, she would definitely think of a way to expose his true appearance!
Madam Pei's face was pale as a ghost. Her originally plump face had lost a lot of weight, and her eyes were bloodshot. She held onto her chest painfully and said, "I feel that this place is very stuffy and painful. I thought maybe it was because I stayed here for too long and didn't go out, or maybe there were too many people in the house, so I looked at the chaos in my chest and felt short of breath. I thought about the Thousand Buddha Temple that I stayed there for two days, and I thought that it was quiet and elegant, so I decided to stay there for a few days. Firstly, he had to ease up his mood, and secondly, he had to stay here and add some bad luck to the Obsidian Tomb. This is a rare good day for him, as a mother, I definitely can't let him have any worries. "
She had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
For this day, she had bribed a monk in the temple to change the tea that the abbot had given to Madam Pei. She had asked someone to bring it from Burma.
Of course, there was no difference in terms of appearance.
But only she knew that the bag of tea she took out was made by soaking in a special medicinal juice before drying in the sun. It did indeed have the effect of calming the mind and nourishing the Qi, but its other, most powerful effect was that it could induce illusions.
Furthermore, its fragrance was very fragrant and was very addictive. Once touched, it was very difficult to get rid of.
Furthermore, as he drank it more, the hallucinations became more and more intense.
In the end, his entire mind would collapse.
And she had done all this because she was tired of Lady Pei's wolf-like, watchful eyes.
Not only did she allow Bi Xi to observe her day and night, he would even personally go on stage often. No matter where she went, she would look at her with her picky eyes.
On the surface, Madam Pei wanted her to join their family, but in reality, she was being treated as a thief.
She didn't dare to move her arms and legs.
Even if the child was so annoyed that he wanted to kill someone, he could only swallow his anger and bear it.
Now, everything was fine. Madam Pei already had an anomaly in her body, and it wasn't too far from her breaking down.
With just a little more time, Madam Pei would no longer be able to keep an eye on her.
Thinking about the freedom that would soon come, Xie Ziyi felt very proud.
That night, she slept very comfortably for the first time. Even though she could clearly feel Bi Xi's gaze lingering on her body, she didn't feel upset at all.
The next morning, Xie Ziyi happily opened her eyes and jumped out of bed full of energy. She turned her head and looked out the window, only to find that the sky had cleared up, and although the sun was slightly dim, the stop of the heavy snow still made him feel a lot happier.
Xie Ziyi stretched herself lazily and turned to look at Bi Xi, who was sleeping soundly. She smiled coldly and quickly walked into the bathroom.
After a simple wash, in a good mood, she hummed a small tune and went to the cafeteria.
Since this was a private hospital, the people who came in were either rich or noble, so the food served in the canteen was both varied and nutritious.
If you're not satisfied, you can even find a chef to tell you the dishes you want to eat.
Xie Ziyi walked a circle around, picked up the food she needed and left.
Arriving at the door to Pei Yaochen's ward, she knocked lightly with her hands.
"Come in!" Pei Yaochen's somewhat hoarse voice came from inside.
Xie Ziyi pushed the door open and entered the room. She saw Pei Yaochen standing by the window doing stretching exercises while the child was still sleeping soundly.
She placed the food on the table and looked at Pei Yaochen. Seeing that he had no intention to turn around and look at her, she tactfully turned around and quietly retreated.
All these years, she had been trying to find out the reason for her failure. The most important reason was that she had shown too much of herself, resulting in her failure.
Thus, this time, she had to keep a low profile.
Just as he closed the door, he saw Bi Xi running over breathlessly with a pile of food.
Xie Ziyi stopped her and gently said, "I've already sent the food in. "Let's both of us eat."
Hearing that, Bi Xi smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry! I was supposed to do all these things, but I got up too late and got in trouble. "
Xie Ziyi shook his head, "I still have to thank you for giving me the chance to see him one more time."
"Don't say that. I'm dying of shame. " Bi Xi was a little unable to understand if what she had said was the opposite of what she was trying to say.
Xie Ziyi laughed bitterly, "I'm speaking the truth. As you know, Mr. Pei doesn't like me at all. If it wasn't for the fact that children like me, I wouldn't even have had the chance to walk into the Pei household. Furthermore, the situation was not looking good. If the engagement was suddenly cancelled, who knew when it would continue? So, I don't have much to hope for now. I just hope that I can see him one more time. "
"To be honest, I also find it very strange this time. What's the matter, sir? It was clearly about to start, so why did he suddenly rush out and disappear into such a remote forest? This is really a puzzling matter. " Bi Xi frowned as he thought, "Do you think that Master has seen a ghost?"
"Have you seen a ghost?" Xie Ziyi was very shocked, and she could faintly remember Pei Yaochen's reaction back then. She had to admit that it was indeed abnormal, and this made her somewhat suspicious.
She did not believe there was a ghost in this man's world.
If there really was one, then Jack, who had been killed by her, would have dragged her down with him.
But if it wasn't a ghost, then what was the reason?
Xie Ziyi went silent.
Seeing her serious expression, Bi Xi gently pulled at the corner of her clothes and asked carefully, "Do we still need to eat breakfast together?"
Xie Ziyi regained her senses, and anxiously laughed: "Yes! Of course we have to eat it! Let's go! Go back to our room and eat. "
She held Bi Xi's hand affectionately as she spoke.
In the dead of night, Xie Ziyi sneaked out of the hospital and directly drove the Jade Spring Mountain Villa away.
When she found the manager of the house, she said she'd lost an expensive earring at the party and asked if they'd seen it while they were cleaning.
The manager was very surprised. He immediately gathered all of the employees to ask and the answer was no.
The manager asked uneasily: "Miss Shu, are you sure that you lost your earring here? Is it possible that it was lost somewhere else? "
Xie Ziyi looked at him coldly, "That night, I only stayed here, and I didn't go anywhere else. The reason why he could not immediately discover it at the time was because there was a small accident in the middle. Furthermore, my Mr. Pei had been sick for the past two days, so he did not have the time to come here and search. Today, I slipped out here to look for it. Let me tell you, this earring is very important to me. It is my future mother-in-law's gift to me as a family heirloom, priceless. If you don't help me find it, I'm sorry, but I will have to report this to the police. At the same time, I will inform the media and bring shame to your once resounding signboard! "
The manager didn't like her arrogant attitude, but he didn't want to argue with her because the reputation of Jade Spring Mountain was not to be sullied.
What's more, it was the famous Pei family who had splashed them with dirty water.
He could only bow his head and say: "Miss Shu, you are being serious. You have lost something here, so we have to cooperate with you in finding it no matter what. In other words, even if we can't find it, we will compensate you according to the price and personally come here to apologize. We definitely can't let you suffer any grievances here. Let's do it this way. How do you want us to cooperate? We'll do as you say. "
Xie Ziyi glanced at the rows of service personnel coldly, and said indifferently: "Isn't this simple? Since no one has admitted to picking up my earrings, let me see for myself the surveillance footage. I believe that the famous Jade Spring Mountain must have one, right? "
The manager quickly nodded, "Yes, yes." Of course. I also assure you that if any of my employees were to find your earrings and fail to report them, I will personally apologize to you for your mental damages and return the original to you! "
"Yes." His attitude was pretty good. Since that's the case, then don't hesitate and bring me to the control room! "
"Alright. This way, please! "
Very quickly, the manager brought Xie Ziyi to the monitor, and had the duty personnel call out the two video of the engagement scene from two days ago, and then said: "Miss Shu, this is it."
As he said that, he sat down beside Xie Ziyi.
Xie Ziyi frowned, "I'm not used to having someone by my side. How about this, you guys leave first while I stay here and take a look around by myself. I'll call you if you need me. "Sorry for the trouble."
The manager nodded awkwardly, "Alright then." "Then we'll take our leave first. If you need anything, just shout out. We'll wait outside."
"Yes." "Got it." Xie Ziyi nodded and watched them leave. Only then did she start looking at the recording of the banquet that day with rapt attention.
There were many people in the banquet hall, and those that came were all important figures that were either rich or powerful.
She looked through it carefully, but she couldn't find anything wrong.
She paused the recording, closed her eyes and recalled the scene carefully. Very quickly, she remembered the scene of Pei Yaochen staring at a certain place in the crowd in a daze.
She suddenly opened her eyes and immediately played the recording back. When Pei Yaochen was in a daze, she pressed the pause button, and then looked at it carefully.
Soon, she found a face that she would never forget amidst the crowd.
