Downstairs, Rong Qi called Xu Yi over.

Xu Yi, showing off his bright teeth, came in holding freshly made pastries from the kitchen.

“Madam, are you going out?” he asked.

“No, I need you to follow someone,” Rong Qi instructed.

“Who? I’m the best at tailing people in the Ye family. Even Zhuang Ling can’t beat me.”

As Xu Yi bragged, a male voice suddenly interjected, “There’s no need to put others down to praise yourself.”

Zhuang Ling, who had come to report to Ye Nanshen, overheard Xu Yi’s boastful words as he entered.

Xu Yi stepped aside, making room for Zhuang Ling.

Zhuang Ling approached, his brows furrowed, “Madam, is something wrong in the mansion? I heard it’s been uneasy lately. Do you need help?”

Zhuang Ling’s calm demeanor always inspired confidence.

Xu Yi, slightly annoyed, said, “Madam has already assigned me the task. You can step back.”

Ignoring Xu Yi, Rong Qi explained, “There’s been some unrest in the mansion lately. I’ve asked Xu Yi to keep an eye on someone. They’re likely to make a move today. Zhuang Ling, if you’re free, you can stay and watch. It might be interesting.”

Zhuang Ling’s eyes lit up with excitement, “That’s great, I’m free. I’ll stay and watch. I’ve been hearing about all the fun Xu Yi has following you and sir, and it’s made me curious.”

Rong Qi, amused by their banter, watched them leave, only to hear them fighting outside shortly after. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Madam, don’t mind Xu Yi’s nonsense. He’s always been a bit of a loose cannon,” said Mrs. Hong as she handed Rong Qi some goji berry-infused water to warm her up.

“What are they fighting about now?” Rong Qi asked.

“I just passed by, and it seems Zhuang Ling is upset with Xu Yi for giving out his personal number while flirting with girls.”

“That certainly calls for a reckoning. Using Zhuang Ling’s name and leaving his phone number is asking for trouble,” said Rong Qi.

Seeing Rong Qi in good spirits, Mrs. Hong felt relieved and asked, “Are you feeling okay?”

“Yes,” Rong Qi smiled and shook her head, “The baby’s been exceptionally well-behaved these past few days.”

“That’s good. It shows the child is sensible. When Master Shen was in his mother’s womb, he was quite restless. She lost a lot of weight during her pregnancy. The master used to say he would be a handful, and he was right!”

Rong Qi laughed along, enjoying the stories about Ye Nanshen’s childhood.

“By the way, is Xin Xin, who was in charge of cleaning the house, sick?” Rong Qi asked as she drank the water.

“Why did you suddenly ask about Xin Xin?”

“I noticed a new girl named Xiao Yue upstairs today.”

Mrs. Hong explained, “Xin Xin is sick and on leave, so I asked Xiao Yue to help out.”

Suddenly, Mrs. Hong seemed to realize something, her expression turning serious, “Is there a problem with Xiao Yue?”

“We’ll know tonight. I’ve asked Xu Yi to follow her. Just act as if you know nothing,” Rong Qi advised, not wanting to alert anyone prematurely..
