bai shixun was stunned for a moment. ” what? me and fang ziqian?”
he did not expect master bai to ask such a question.
master bai glared at him. ” don’t play dumb with me! i think you’ve done something you shouldn’t have to ziqian. everyone in the company is saying that you two have a special relationship …”
before master bai could finish his words, a ” bang ” suddenly came from the bedroom!
this time, both of them were stunned.
master bai frowned at once. ” what happened? ” there’s someone in your bedroom?”
“cough, cough, this …”
bai shixun was tongue-tied and did not know what to say for a moment.
what was that idiotic woman fang ziqian up to again?
if he wanted to hide, he should hide well. if he suddenly made a sound, how was he going to explain it to the old master?
master bai saw his embarrassed face and immediately guessed it. ” what’s wrong? did you bring a woman home? then, when he saw me, an old man, coming over, he hid him in his bedroom?”
bai shixun coughed twice. ” ahem, no, no. there’s no such thing! “
“you think grandpa is easy to fool? he was still lying at a time like this? tell me, where did you get the earring on the sofa?”
“an earring? what earrings?”
bai shixun followed master bai’s line of sight and lowered his head.
there was a small pearl earring on the sofa …
it must’ve fallen down when he was fighting with fang ziqian …
this was awkward!
fortunately, bai shixun’s reaction was quick.
looking at master bai’s stern eyes, he immediately found an excuse. ” “grandpa, i … i really didn’t bring the woman back. it’s … it’s the last time when mu yichen brought his wife over to play. his wife probably lost her earrings. i usually come back late, so i didn’t notice …”
“as if i’d believe you! i remember warning you that no matter how you play outside, grandpa can’t control you. but you must never bring that kind of woman back home! you didn’t listen to me at all!”
“i heard it, i heard it! there’s no such woman in my family!”
however, master bai had already lost his trust in him.
she didn’t listen to his explanation at all. she used her walking stick to support herself on the ground, stood up, and walked straight to the bedroom.
he was ready to search the place personally!
fang ziqian, who was hiding in the closet among a pile of men’s suits, heard the conversation between the two. her heart was in her throat.
just now, when she heard master bai mention her name and even suspected that she had an ambiguous relationship with bai shixun, she was shocked.
she accidentally knocked down a few clothes that were hanging in the closet.
now, she had attracted the old master’s attention, and he even wanted to come in and search for her personally!
if the old man found out that she was hiding in the closet in bai shixun’s bedroom, she would not be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the yellow river!
the sound of the old man’s walking stick hitting the ground was getting closer and closer …
fang ziqian was so nervous that she almost stopped breathing.
bai shixun’s voice came from outside the wardrobe, ” “grandpa, you can see that there’s no one in my bedroom! that sound just now was probably because i forgot to close the window and the wind was too strong, blowing something over …”
” there doesn’t seem to be anyone in the room, ” master bai said, ” but you might have asked the woman to hide under the bed or in the closet … “
