After the management team clarified things out, they noticed Chang Ying’s weibo account went online and offline, online and offline, going back and forth several times withouwithoutut saying a word.
They guessed that she’d just sat back and observed what netizens thought.
Finally, it was Chang Ying’s fans who came out to wash the ground. They organized a group to apologize at Ye Sui’s weibo, thanking her for saving Chang Ying and hoping for a happy cooperation in the future.
While it looked like a happy ending on the surface, but it’s actually only the beginning.
Ye Sui received a phone call from Master Chen again. He said that she and Chen Shu needed to come over at Chen Mansion tomorrow. Ye Sui agreed, while contemplating that tomorrow wasn’t the monthly family dinner. Why did this old man ask them to come over all of sudden?
Ye Sui recalled the news that she and Chang Ying fell into the water the other day was made headlines, this wouldn’t be the reason for this dinner, right?
It seemed that two women had made a big scene this time, one was Chen Shu’s wife, and the other was Chen Xiu’s girlfriend, as a result they disturbed the old man peace.
Ye Sui didn’t think much either and conveyed the matter to Chen Shu. Chen Shu’s expression as usual as he didn’t care about it. The next day, the two arrived at Chen Mansion.
At this time, Master Chen’s butler, Butler Zhao came to greet them. Butler Zhao looked at Chen Shu and Ye Sui indifferently.
Within the Chen Family, who was the most promising? No doubt, it would be Chen Xiu, while Chen Shu was worthless and had a hard life. Who cared to curry favor with him?
Whenever Chen Xiu and Chen Shu appeared together, Butler Zhao would always only make tea for Chen Xiu. What about Chen Shu? Don’t even mention about offering tea, he was even too lazy to take a look at Chen Shu’s appearance.
It was like looking at the dishes on the plate. A certain person should be able to understand its meaning.
As usual, with lack of regard, Butler Zhao looked at Chen Shu, his eyebrows almost tilted to his temples. “Third Young Master please come this way.”
He said ‘Third Young Master‘ in a strange way, as if he was saying, Since you arrived, you shouldn’t dally here. Don’t think of me to serve you.
Ye Sui frowned. Chen Shu was also the son of Master Chen. Doing this in front of other people, privately, how bossy this person could be.
Ye Sui shifted her head at Chen Shu. Chen Shu didn’t give any facial expressions. as if he didn’t care about all this. He seemed to be used to this kind of treatment.
When Ye Sui was about to speak when she noticed a ghost was calmly floating on Butler Zhao’s shoulder. A ghost dressed in ancient clothes, he was a scholar, ahd had wholeheartedly wanted to get a the scholarly honor in imperial exam. Everyday, he skipped his sleep and meals to only study.
Because he studied too earnestly. As a result, when he didn’t pass the examination he felt frustrated. He died through commiting suicide by hanging himself on the beam and his thigh had several cuts.
The scholar had several dark circles under his eyes that was quite deep. It looked as if he had been staying up for hundreds of years. More than just that, his thigh was dripping with blood giving the impression of being stabbed by something.
This scene was very odd. Her body was suddenly stiffened like a board, while slowly gazing at Chen Shu who was still calm beside her. She uttered in a low voice, hinting at Chen Shu. “Don’t you feel a little cold?”
Not only cold, Why is every pore of my body was brimming with a chill?
Chen Shu looked at Ye Sui. His line of sight fell at Ye Sui long sleeve clothes then turned towards her jeans again.
Chen Shu, “.……”
