Zi Yi only managed to recover her senses after a mont. She swiftly retreated and at the sa ti, took out a hidden weapon and aid it at the woman.
The figure of the masked man and woman beca virtual shadows in the downpour. Zi Yi guessed that both of them should be skilled in ancient martial arts or sothing.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and activated the chanism for her hidden weapon.
At the sa ti, she threw out a circular ball.
As expected, the woman avoided her hidden weapon and dashed forwards in her direction.
“Just in ti.” Zi Yi curled her lips and shouted to the masked man, “Stand still!”
Zi Yi stood rooted to the spot without avoiding the oncoming figure. Looking at the woman approaching her, a flash of lightning was attracted by the item she threw on the ground.
Shortly after ca the sound of the ground exploding.
The burning scent of clothes and skin wafted in the air.
Even though the woman was wounded, she was unexpectedly still able to escape.
Zi Yi saw the masked man swiftly chase after her. She touched the rainwater on her face and headed towards the door.
Just as she walked into the living room, she could hear fast-approaching footsteps behind her.
The housekeeper’s urgent concerned voice sounded. “Miss Zi, are you alright?”
Zi Yi turned to look at the housekeeper standing behind her and nodded her head. “I’m fine.”
The housekeeper looked at Zi Yi who was drenched, the rainwater made her appear particularly pitiful. He hesitated for a mont and asked, “Miss Zi, there was so much thunder and lightning attracted over here earlier. Did you install sothing on the courtyard’s wall?”
“It’s just a lightning conductor.”
“…”
The housekeeper was surprised. “Miss Zi, how could you install a lightning conductor? The entire villa might get destroyed!”
“It’ll be alright to just install a lightning deflector in the courtyard.”
“…”
Hearing how calm Zi Yi’s tone was, the housekeeper felt that he was making a fuss.
Just then, Zi Yi suddenly asked, “Why aren’t you asking if soone trespassed in the courtyard instead?”
She chuckled as she asked. When the housekeeper was nervous for a second, she added, “Your Third Young Master entered while chasing after a woman. This should be a sche he had plotted in advance?”
The housekeeper opened his mouth as if he had wanted to say sothing. In the end, he closed his mouth, breathed out a sigh of relief a few seconds later, and said, “So Miss Zi already knows that the Third Young Master ca.”
“Yep.”
The housekeeper notioned to the bodyguards behind him. “Head outside to check the situation in the courtyard.”
Several bodyguards imdiately retreated.
He then said in a stern tone, “Miss Zi, everything the Third Young Master does needs to be kept a secret. Please do not divulge this information.”
Zi Yi nodded. She was not soone who liked to be a busybody. “Get soone to restore my pavilion rockery to its original appearance.”
“Ok, I will make sure it’s done.” The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Miss Zi did not continue to pry further.
“Miss Zi, you can continue resting. Just leave the rest for us to settle.”
Zi Yi nodded, turned around, and headed upstairs.
The next day.
The rain that continued for an entire night had finally stopped.
The skies cleared after the rain, and Zi Yi ca down to the living room. She first ordered the robots to check the courtyard wall.
While she took a tablet and swiftly swiped across it.
The housekeeper walked over and said to her, “Miss Zi, the workers that are repairing the walls have been contacted, and they will be coming over today.”
Zi Yi humd.
He continued speaking, “If you don’t wish to stay here today, you can directly head over to the other villa.”
Zi Yi looked up in surprise at his words.
“Your Third Young Master left?”
“This…”
“I understand, I can’t ask. Is that it?”
“Yes.”
Zi Yi did not continue asking. “I’ll stay here tonight.”
The housekeeper did not persuade her. He rely nodded and went to arrange the house.
After she finished her al, Zi Yi drove to the gallery.
The Dou Family siblings were already waiting for her there.
When they saw her arrival, Dou Xiangling imdiately pulled her hands as she said with a proud expression, “See, true to what I’ve said, Yiyi is very smart. As it turns out, you are the person who ranked first in the tropolis University’s independent enrollnt.”
However, Dou Zerui looked at her with a complicated gaze. “Since your grades are so good, why didn’t you reveal it?”
