It seed like the password was wrong. The two of them tried for a long ti but could not open it. The stepmother could not help but complain louder and louder.

“Keep your voice down! Do you want to expose yourself?”

Sister Ming looked at Chi Yaoxi in surprise and asked softly, “There’s a blackout? Is there a thief?”

Chi Yaoxi gently tugged on Sister Ming’s sleeve. “Sister Ming, don’t speak. Don’t ask who it is. Follow into the study room. If you see any thieves, hit them.”

The two of them quietly went to the kitchen, took a spatula and a pot lid, and tiptoed to the door of the study.

Chi Yaoxi tugged on Sister Ming’s arm. The two of them rushed inside while shouting, “There’s a thief! Catch the thief!”

“Beat him up! Beat him up! Catch the thief!”

Taking advantage of the darkness of the blackout, the two of them started hitting the “thieves”.

Chi Jianming and his wife did not expect such an accident to happen at all. They did not even have the chance to stand up before they were hit. They didn’t know what kind of hard tool it was, but it hit their heads, shoulders, and their arms. It hurt like hell.

The two “thieves” bent over, hugged their heads, and shouted in panic, “Stop hitting! Stop hitting! We’re not thieves!”

Chi Yaoxi and Sister Ming pretended not to hear them. They continued to hit and shout about catching thieves.

Chi Jianming and his wife scrambled out of the door and limped away.

Seeing them run away, Chi Yaoxi and Sister Ming stood by the door and heaved a sigh of relief.

Sister Ming finally cald down and turned to look at Chi Yaoxi. “What exactly happened? Why didn’t you call the police?”

Chi Yaoxi did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was really hard to explain. One should not air their dirty laundry in public.

Fortunately, Sister Ming had taken care of her for so long. She felt that she was closer to her than her biological sister. Chi Yaoxi smiled bitterly and explained to Sister Ming how her shaless father and stepmother disliked her. Now that sothing had happened, they wanted to take the opportunity to earn money.

This was the first ti Sister Ming heard that there were such shaless parents. She felt very indignant for Chi Yaoxi. No wonder Chi Yaoxi rarely went ho to stay and rarely ntioned her family.

Sister Ming consoled Chi Yaoxi and said that she had to go through trials and tribulations to grow up. She could only see the rainbow after experiencing trials and hardships, and she would definitely get better and better in the future.

Sister Ming’s heart ached when she saw Chi Yaoxi, who had been tortured by so many troubles recently, looking a little haggard. Suddenly, she thought of sothing and asked directly, “Yaoxi, it’s not that I want to scold you, but it’s already at this ti. What’s wrong with your marriage partner? Why isn’t he here?”

Chi Yaoxi felt awkward being asked this question. She smiled bitterly and explained, “Sister Ming, I’ve always been embarrassed to tell you the truth. I only registered my marriage with that man and signed an agreent. In reality, it’s equivalent to a partnership. For the sake of benefits, there’s no actual relationship between husband and wife.”

When Sister Ming heard Chi Yaoxi’s words, her expression imdiately changed. She pointed at Chi Yaoxi and said resentfully, “Look at what you’re doing! For a woman, marriage is a lifeti affair. How can you take it so lightly!”

Chi Yaoxi knew in her heart that although Sister Ming was long-winded, that was also out of concern. The marriage was not done according to the rules.

“But, Yaoxi, even if you two are husband and wife by na, you are still legally married. It should be safer for you to move to his place. This matter needs to be done imdiately. Your exposure on the internet is so high now. Even if you hide at ho every day, it’s still very dangerous.”

When Chi Yaoxi heard Sister Ming’s words, her face was full of lancholy. After thinking about it, she also began to worry. There was logic in it. The place where she lived could easily be exposed. If there were reporters blocking the door, she might not even be able to leave.

“Alright, I understand. Thank you for your reminder, Sister Ming. You can go back first.”

After Chi Yaoxi sent Sister Ming out, she hesitated for a long ti. Should she take the initiative to move into Li Qianming’s house? How could she ask that? It felt awkward to take the initiative.

Besides, Chi Yaoxi was also a little worried. She wasn’t very familiar with Li Qianming. Every ti she saw him, he would be silent with a cold face. She didn’t know what he was thinking.

Thinking of the severity of the matter that Sister Ming had ntioned, Chi Yaoxi had no choice but to call the man hesitantly.

The call went through as soon as it rang. The man’s familiar yet unfamiliar voice ca through the phone. “Hello!”

Chi Yaoxi’s hand trembled nervously, and her phone almost fell to the ground. She didn’t know what to say for a long ti.

Li Qianming had just returned to his office after the eting. When he saw the na “Chi Yaoxi” on his phone, he imdiately answered the call. This was the first ti he had received a call from her. He thought that sothing urgent had happened and she needed help.

“Speak!”

“Okay. Can I… can I move in with you now? Um…” Before Chi Yaoxi could finish explaining, the man’s short reply ca through the phone. “Sure.”

After putting down the phone, Chi Yaoxi was still grateful. Although the man’s temperant was a little cold, his character was still not bad. He had already agreed to wait for her downstairs.

Chi Yaoxi hurriedly packed her luggage simply and then dressed up. She put on her hat, sunglasses, and mask, then pulled her luggage and prepared to leave. Afraid of being tracked, Chi Yaoxi carefully opened the wooden door inside and looked out.

What she saw shocked her. She saw a few people dressed as reporters walking out of the elevator. Chi Yaoxi imdiately closed the door again. Heavens! Why was she so unlucky? Whatever she was afraid of ca!

Sister Ming was right. If her place was exposed, there would be reporters waiting for her. It would be difficult for her to go out even if she wanted to. Now, she had encountered such a situation.

Chi Yaoxi pushed her luggage in a little and stood at the peephole to look out. Sure enough, there were several different dia reporters. Their caras were all ready and facing the direction of her house.

Chi Yaoxi secretly regretted it. If only she had taken action earlier. Now that she was stuck at ho, it was difficult for her to even leave the house.

Li Qianming brought the little fellow along to pick Chi Yaoxi up. They waited downstairs for twenty minutes but still did not see her.

The little guy was worried and called Chi Yaoxi directly. “Mommy, didn’t you say that it will be soon? Daddy and I have been waiting for a long ti. Why haven’t you co down yet?”

Chi Yaoxi only reacted when she received the little guy’s call. She was so anxious that she couldn’t go out. She should have called Li Qianming to inform him first.

“Chenchen, Mommy is being blocked upstairs. There are reporters at the door, so I can’t go out.”

Hearing his mommy’s anxious voice, the little guy consoled her calmly, “Don’t worry mommy, I’ll find a way to settle it for you.” The little fella sat in the car and pulled Li Qianming’s arm as he said, “I knew sothing was wrong just now. Daddy, quickly think of a way to get the reporters to leave so that Mommy can co out.”
