Still, Ye Xiuchen did not come back throughout the day, and even Mo Si disappeared for a long time.
In the huge villa, apart from Yuluo herself, there were servants coming and going and performing their respective duties. She had been studying the story of "The Ugly Duckling and the Bad Guy" for a whole afternoon, and she still stared at the computer screen, unable to write a single word.
come out.
What a strange script.
At dinner time, Zhang's mother, who claimed that she was not feeling well and went to rest, still did not show up. Yuluo was a little worried. She went back to the bedroom and took a bath. She lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep. At this time, the clock hand pointed to ten o'clock in the evening.
, she took a deep breath and climbed up from the bed, ready to go see if Zhang Ma was okay.
Yu Luo always went to bed early. Except for the living room, corridor and the passage connecting the living room and the villa, which would each leave a lamp, almost from nine o'clock every night, the night house fell into silence.
Not wanting to wake up other servants, Yu Luo tried to make as little noise as possible when she got out of bed and opened the door. The dim lights in the corridor gave Yu Luo an illusion, as if she had gone back to one night. At one o'clock in the morning, she got up and walked in the corridor.
, through the crack in the door, I saw some unforgettable scenes.
Trying not to let her thoughts wander, the past has passed, right? However, now, she doesn't even know where Su Yuner is. Every time she tries to mention Su Yuner in front of Ye Xiuchen, he either changes the subject or gets angry.
Him. She couldn't figure out why. What on earth was he hiding from her?
Zhang Ma's bedroom was on the first floor. Yu Luo relied on the wall lamp in the stairwell to carefully go downstairs, found Zhang Ma's bedroom, and knocked lightly on the door. No one answered. She was about to knock again to try, but
Finding that the door was unlocked, she pushed it open easily.
"Mother Zhang?"
Yuluo called in a low voice, looking for Zhang Ma's figure in the bedroom. The bedroom was not big, and she could see every corner at a glance. There was no sign of Zhang Ma. The quilts on the bed were neatly folded, and it didn't look like anyone was sleeping.
Passed by.
It's strange, didn't she say she wasn't feeling well? Why didn't she take a good rest in the room? And, it was so late, why wasn't she in the room?
Yuluo sat on Zhang Ma's bed and waited for a while, but still didn't see Zhang Ma come back to the room, so she gave up, got up and walked upstairs.
Probably, Zhang Ma went to the toilet.
Returning to the corridor on the second floor, Yu Luo planned to go back to her room and continue sleeping, but she saw a faint light in another bedroom two rooms away from her own.
Huh?
Yuluo wondered, had Ye Xiuchen come back? However, she didn't see his shoes at the entrance. Moreover, the room was a guest room, so even if he came back, he shouldn't be in it.
Driven by curiosity, Yuluo's feet were not under her control, and she walked straight past her bedroom step by step, heading towards the room with the faint light.
The door to the room was ajar, and Yuluo was about to push it open to take a closer look, but before she could reach out her hand, the people inside were already alarmed.
"who?"
There was a rustling sound in the room, and then, the door in front of him was suddenly opened from the inside.
Yuluo was startled and raised her head, only to find that the person standing in front of her was Zhang Ma, who was not in her room just now.
"Is it you?"
Zhang Ma's tone was very strange. Seeing that the person in front of her was Yu Luo, she frowned and a trace of displeasure and boredom flashed in her eyes.
Yuluo was stunned for a moment. Zhang Ma's tone and expression were so strange, and her tone of voice was different from before.
"Mama Zhang, it's so late, why are you in the guest room?"
Yu Luo asked her doubts.
Zhang Ma's face changed, perhaps realizing that she was abnormal. She quickly changed her expression, lowered her voice deliberately, and looked at Yu Luo with a smile.
"Miss, it's like this. The young master asked me to clean up this guest room a few days ago."
"Yeah?"
Yu Luo murmured that this guest room was exactly the room where Su Yun'er used to live in Yezhai.
"Miss, why don't you go to bed so late?"
"Well, I can't sleep a little bit."
"Well, since Miss can't sleep, why not come in and talk to Zhang Ma and me? I'm almost done."
Zhang Ma tentatively looked into Yu Luo's eyes. The latter hesitated for a few seconds and nodded. She couldn't sleep anyway, so she might as well help Zhang Ma tidy up the room.
"That's fine."
Zhang Ma moved her body to let Yu Luo enter the room.
"Hey, Zhang Ma, you seem to have lost weight."
Zhang Ma's body trembled: "Oh, really? Maybe it's because I haven't been feeling well these past few days. I don't have much appetite and haven't eaten much."
"Oh, that's it. Then you have to go see a doctor as soon as possible. Your health is the most important thing."
Yuluo said with a smile, her tone full of concern.
"I understand, thank you, miss."
Zhang Ma said respectfully, but when Yu Luo turned her back, there was a trace of malice and jealousy that was inappropriate for her age in her eyes.
The room was a bit messy. There were clothes left by Su Yun'er on the floor, on the bed, and in the closet. Even the suitcase she came with was still there. Yu Luo was even more confused. She didn't take any of them with her when she left Ye Zhai.
Your own luggage?
She knelt down and helped pack Su Yun'er's luggage, while Zhang Ma stood behind her.
"Do you know the lady named Su who lived in this house before?"
Yuluo nodded: "I know him."
"Then, does the young lady know that Miss Su and the young master are engaged?"
Yuluo's back froze as she packed her things, and after a long while, she spoke softly.
"Well, I've heard of it."
"Oh, since that Miss Su and our young master are already engaged, and she has also moved into the night house, why did she leave without even saying hello?"
"I, I don't know either."
This is where Yuluo's doubts lie.
"Miss, don't you know?"
"Um."
"What did the young master say?"
Yuluo suddenly felt that Zhang Ma seemed to be talking unusually much tonight, and something was wrong. She turned around and saw Zhang Ma standing behind her, with no intention of cleaning up the room.
"Mama Zhang, you have a lot of questions today."
Realizing that she had once again lost her composure, Zhang Ma smiled awkwardly.
"As I get older, I'm more curious. The servants always talk about these things, which makes me curious."
It turned out that the matter between Su Yun'er and Ye Xiuchen had become a gossip topic among the people in the night house after dinner. I don't know how the servants discussed the matter between her and him behind their backs.
"Mother Zhang, it's almost eleven o'clock. Do you still clean the room tonight? Otherwise, if you don't feel well after cleaning tomorrow, just go to bed early."
