The weather was fair the next day.

The skies were clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Jin Qingyue and Ling Ciye showed up in their car at the Shi family mansion at eight o’clock sharp.

Shi Shaochuan was standing at the entrance with Jin Bao’er, whose hand he was holding. Upon sight of the luxury car, he immediately brought Jin Bao’er into his car and took the lead in heading toward the graveyard.

Jin Qingyue and Ling Ciye followed closely behind.

They soon arrived at their destination.

Shi Shaochuan alighted from the car with Jin Bao’er. Upon sight of Ling Ciye, Shi Shaochuan snorted with laughter and sneered, “Jin Qingyue, you really can’t find another man eh? You actually resorted to getting your childhood friend to pose as your boyfriend.”

“Shi Shaochuan, Qingyue and I have been dating for a while now. You must be mistaken. I, Ling Ciye, will never pose as anyone’s boyfriend,” said Ling Ciye.

“Just what do you see in her?” Shi Shaochuan asked in disbelief as the smile on his face stiffened.

“Hmm, what do I see in her… she’s pretty, meticulous, gentle, adorable, caring, understanding, elegant, and virtuous. There are too many attributes of hers, I can’t list them all at once,” Ling Ciye said leisurely.

Shi Shaochuan was fuming with anger all of a sudden. He was annoyed to see his ex-wife dating another man who was much more outstanding than him.

“All I can say is that you probably should get your eyesight checked, Mr. Ling. I’ve known her for so many years, ever since we started dating until we got married and then divorced. I know clearly what kind of a person she is. Mr. Ling, don’t get fooled by her facade. Otherwise, you’ll suffer the same fate I did and regret it for the rest of your life.”

Jin Qingyue did not expect him to insult her to her face. Just as she was about to retort, she was held back by Ling Ciye, who grabbed her hand tightly.

“My vision is perfect in both eyes. You don’t have to worry about my eyesight, Mr. Shi. Actually, I think you’re the one who needs to visit the optometrist. You were so careless as to let such a good woman down. Do you have cataracts?”

Shi Shaochuan was at a loss for words to rebut him. Thus, he grabbed Jin Bao’er’s hand and walked toward the graveyard.

Jin Qingyue smirked and let go of Ling Ciye’s hand to hold onto his arm instead and continued to follow them. All of a sudden, Shi Shaochuan stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at them. “Are you hoping to let my parents and Grandmother see you two being affectionate with each other? You don’t have to go up,” he hissed.

“How will that do? Didn’t you ask me to come here with you yesterday? You even threatened me when I said I didn’t want to turn up. It’s time I meet your family again. I’ve got so much to tell them.”

“You don’t have to go anymore! You’re getting on my nerves!” Shi Shaochuan hollered, seething with anger and glaring daggers at her.

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked Jin Bao’er up in his arms and stormed off. Jin Qingyue and Ling Ciye stayed put and did not follow them.

“Let’s go home,” said Ling Ciye.

“Alright, let’s go.”

“Young Sir, I’ve already found the man described by Fang Xiaotian and nabbed him. But he claimed that he doesn’t know who the instigator was since she was wearing a mask and a pair of shades. He said that she recruited him via an online platform,” Fan Shixin reported.

“Since she recruited him online, does the account she used to find him still exist?”

“No, I’ve already checked. The account has been deleted long ago. Seems like the mastermind had a well-thought-ou plan and made all the necessary preparations,” said Fan Shixin.

“He should still be able to remember and identify the mastermind’s voice… but I don’t think it’d be easy to find out. Let’s start from her attire. Ask him carefully about the type of clothes, mask, and shades she was wearing, as well as any special features about her. We’ll then investigate from there. Perhaps we’ll be able to find out something. Also, hurry up on investigating the photos I told you as well.”

“Got it. There should be news of it very soon.”

Jin Qingyan nodded, feeling rather ill at ease. He would never be able to rest his mind as long as An Xiaoning was still in the Autumn Palace.

He looked up at the photos hanging on the wall and instantly felt much more relaxed.

At the end of the day, he believed that she would definitely protect herself well, given her intelligence and wit.

“Nick!”

Jin Qingyan looked up and said, “Xianxian, didn’t I say that you’re not allowed to go near the main mansion?”

“I sneaked in when the guards weren’t paying attention. So what if I’m inside here now? It’s my birthday today. You won’t hold it against me, will you?” Bu Xianxian said, smiling.

Raising his brows in apprehension, he answered, “It’s your birthday? Happy Birthday.”

“Thank you. Nick, do you have time for dinner with me this evening?”

“Xianxian, I’m very busy. I’m afraid I don’t have the time to eat with you,” he rejected her straight away.

“It’s only a meal…” Bu Xianxian said dejectedly.

“Another day then. How’s the language tutor I hired for you guys?”

“The tutor’s very good at teaching. We’ve managed to learn some basic conversational phrases within such a short period of time. I believe we’ll be able to communicate fluently with everyone here very soon.”

“That’s great. I still have something to attend to at the office. I’ll get going first,” Jin Qingyan said as he rose from his seat.

Bu Xianxian watched as he left, feeling a little upset and disappointed.

She was no fool and could obviously tell that he often made it a point to keep a distance between them, which hindered her from getting closer to him.

She stared at the photos on the wall before scanning her surroundings, only to find that there was no one else in the living room. Thus, she felt an urge to go upstairs to take a look too.

To her surprise, she was stopped by Auntie Chen, who came out of the kitchen.

“Miss… Bu, you’re not allowed to go upstairs,” Auntie Chen said politely with a grin.

Bu Xianxian turned around and smiled wryly at her. “I’d like to take a tour upstairs, is that not allowed?”

“No.”

“How about if you go with me?”

“That’s not allowed either. Young Madam ordered you to stay away from the main mansion. Yet, you’ve already crossed the line by barging in. Ms. Bu, please bear in mind that you’re in someone else’s house. This is not your own home where you can roam freely without restrictions,” Auntie Chen refused, gesturing for her to leave.

Bu Xianxian had no choice but to leave. She had been idling about all day every day, and no one would reprimand her even if she did not wish to do the chores.

She was on the verge of being bored to death with no one around her age to talk to while being confined to the boundaries of the estate.

Feeling lonely and bored out of her wits, she walked toward the guardroom by the main entrance and peeked in through the door to look at Xiao Lu. “Hi,” she greeted.

Xiao Lu glanced at her before resuming his duty of staring at the monitor, completely ignoring her.

Bu Xianxian turned around to see that Xiao Huang was walking In her direction. She smiled and again greeted, “Hi, Xiao Huang.”

Xiao Huang acknowledged her with a nod and walked past her straight away to enter the guardroom.

Bu Xianxian was getting slightly infuriated, thinking to herself that she must find a way to get out of this place and see what the outside world had to offer. She felt trapped and suffocated, just like a caged bird.

This can’t go on any longer!

However, language was still an issue for her at the moment.

Once I’ve mastered the language of S Nation well, I’ll leave this place right away! She no longer wanted to be restricted within this estate. She was not an animal, she was a human who enjoyed her rights to freedom.
