Bastard!

Shen Ming Xi's eyes stung. Even if she had already lost the qualifications to cry, she really wanted to cry. Her pain and struggles were not worth a single cent in that man's eyes.

He was even stingy in giving her a quick death!

"Bear!" Shen Ming Xi was simply unable to control her tears that were falling so quickly. Amidst the dense fog, she raised her hand with much difficulty and her delicate skin touched the short hair of the microbear.

If it was half a month ago, Shen Ming Xi would never have imagined that such a day would come for her!

No matter how annoying it was, she was so embarrassed that she could only bear with it. She had never thought that there would be such a sad little dog by her side.

"Woo …" Shen Ming Xi called out softly. She stuck out her pink tongue and gently licked the fingers on her hand.

Is it hungry?

Shen Ming Xi was extremely sad, but she quickly noticed the situation.

In the closed room, Shen Ming Xi suddenly remembered something, it was like the time she drank milk for Xiong Xiong, it was already a few hours ago.

If she angered Si Tu Ye, wouldn't she have to suffer together with him?

The door was locked, so what about Xiong Xiong?

"Si Tu Ye, I hate you!" Sour tears rolled unceasingly out of Shen Ming Xi's eyes. Her amber eyes were filled with helplessness and grief.

But that man, she didn't even have the strength to resist him!

He was too powerful, so powerful that even if she wanted to die in front of him, it would be extremely difficult.

But Bear, it's still so small, if we don't give it something to eat, if there's a problem with it …

Black Mandara Flowers in the sea.

Si Tu Ye sat there alone, beside the harp that Shen Ming Xi had played before, his long fingers lightly swiped across the zither strings.

The zither strings did not budge at all, not a single sound could be heard for a long while.

Leng Yan stood in the distance, his stiff face did not have much of an expression, but after a long time, he looked at the sky, then lowered his head to look at the time on his wrist, and walked towards the pavilion.

In all these years, Si Tu Ye rarely visited this place, and even more so, took the initiative to touch the guqin.

Everyone had their own unspeakable wounds in their hearts, and that guqin was Si Tu Ye's injury.

"Young Master?" Leng Yan lowered his head and spoke in a slightly low and deep voice.

Si Tu Ye retracted his hand, a trace of sadness that had finally congealed in his eyes before quickly returning to his previous indifference.

Leng Yan lowered his head. Two seconds later, he heard Si Tu Ye's cold voice: "I'll stay here today, you can go back first."

Leng Yan was Si Tu Ye's personal assistant, but most of the time it was on the job and daily life, so he still didn't have the need to get close to his body.

Once Leng Yan left, he took a light breath and sat by himself for a while. Then he stood up and walked back into the villa.

There were a lot of servants in the manor. Ever since Zhen Ni's incident, every servant here had to undergo a strict investigation before they could officially take over.

These people, almost all of them had rich experience in the job transition. Their manners and actions were all much better than the servants they had found outside, and they all had a good grasp of the situation.

Along the way, Si Tu Ye had met a few people who respectfully bowed and greeted him. In the silent air, not a single sound could be heard.

The tall and slender figure quietly made its way to the second floor.

Passing by the room that was locked from the outside, Si Tu Ye's footsteps stayed silent for two seconds, and when he did not hear anything from the inside, he started anew and opened the door to the study room beside him.

The sky had already darkened completely the moment Si Tu Ye entered the study room.

In the dark room, the man and the dog who were sleeping seemed to have no idea of the passage of time. It was only after the lights in the villa had been extinguished did they slowly wake up.

After being depressed for the past few days, Shen Ming Xi was more than willing to not wake up.

But there was a faint sound in her ears, as if something had struck the water and set it off, and she was not spared.

"Woo …" The cries of microbear were very weak. After all, it was a small milk dog, so it was not as good as a large adult dog.

Fierce!

Shen Ming Xi suddenly woke up, thinking of the microbear, her vision was still blurry, her gaze could not help but to look around.

The snow-white puppy was curled up into a small ball. It was kneeling on the side of a small white porcelain bowl, trying its best to look at the little dog's head.

The voice that Shen Ming Xi heard just now was undoubtedly coming from Xiong Xiong mouth.

However, following along the microbear's body, Shen Ming Xi, who was holding onto his sore body, suddenly froze for a moment.

She would rather have been mistaken!

However, those long and firm legs, even the long nightgown, still only covered a little below the knee.

Shen Ming Xi had never really looked at Si Tu Ye's legs before, but inside this villa, other than Si Tu Ye, who else would have the guts to open the lock on his leg?

"He woke up." Xiong Xiong's licking of the hot milk didn't stop, giving the quiet room a little more business.

Si Tu Ye's indifferent voice sounded at this moment.

It was just two simple words. In the room late at night, it was like the ringing of a temple bell. The sound shook Shen Ming Xi's head, causing an unspeakable pain.

Shen Ming Xi pursed her pink-white lips, and didn't speak for a long while.

How long had it been? He's here again. Can it be that he's still trying to figure it out?

Her amber eyes landed on Si Tu Ye's cold and expensive handsome face, as if asking for his opinion.

Putting down the microbear's white porcelain bowl, Si Tu Ye only needed a light glance to see that Shen Ming Xi's current condition was definitely extremely poor.

Her lips were slightly white, no longer as healthy as before. Other than the glimmer in her eyes, her delicate, palm-sized face seemed to be in an extremely tired state.

"You don't even want your life to leave me?"

Shen Ming Xi did not utter a word. Si Tu Ye slightly raised his eyebrow, and the corners of his mouth revealed a sound that was inexplicably full of ridicule.

He had been staying upstairs all this time, but for so long, as long as she let out even the slightest bit of grievance, he believed that he would be able to open the door.
