The sunset was like blood.
Mu Yiliang lay on the window ledge, gazing at the view where the sea t the sky, and sighed softly.
Suddenly, light footsteps could be heard behind her.
From the sound of the footsteps, she knew it wasn’t Yan Sijue, so Mu Yiliang remained there motionless, not bothering to turn around.
"Madam." A clear and crisp voice sounded near her ear, "Would you like to eat sothing? You barely ate at noon."
Mu Yiliang turned her head, saw the person, and slightly raised her eyebrows.
This maid was new; she noticed her as soon as she returned today because this maid was exceptionally beautiful, with bright and charming eyes, red lips, and white teeth, her smile particularly enchanting. Her features had so depth, and Mu Yiliang suspected she might be mixed-race.
Unexpectedly, her voice was also so pleasant.
She perked up, managed a smile, "No, I’m not hungry yet. By the way, what’s your na?"
"I’m Sophie." She said with a cheerful smile, "I just arrived yesterday. Madam, you’re so beautiful. I envy you and your husband."
"Sophie..." Mu Yiliang smiled, "Thank you, you are beautiful too."
"Madam, are you sure you don’t want to try so? I’m really good at making snacks. Even the gentleman said my pastries are especially delicious." She said proudly.
The gentleman... Yan Sijue?
Yan Sijue actually praised her?
Mu Yiliang glanced at her in surprise, and as her gaze t Sophie’s clear eyes, Mu Yiliang’s heart stirred slightly.
"Really don’t need any, you may go out now." Mu Yiliang smiled.
Sophie stuck out her tongue, "Alright. If you need anything, feel free to call anyti."
Saying this, she turned and left cheerfully.
"Sophie, wait a mont." Mu Yiliang called softly to stop her.
"Is there anything you need, Madam?" She turned around, surprised.
"This is my husband’s and my room, even if my door is open, you can’t co in casually." Mu Yiliang said gently, "Do you rember?"
Her face turned pale, and she forced a smile, "I rember."
...
Mu Yiliang wouldn’t fuss with a young girl, but this Sophie still made her feel uneasy.
Such a beautiful girl, with such a lively personality, hardly looked like a maid at all.
She ran into Ada and asked her specifically.
Ada laughed and said, "Because a few days ago Xiaoliu’s family mber fell ill, I brought Sophie over. Don’t worry, she’s professionally trained, and her records are very clean. The gentleman knows too."
"That’s good." Mu Yiliang smiled, and soon brushed off the matter.
That evening, Mu Yiliang went to the dining room and found Yan Sijue was there too.
She was pleasantly surprised but resisted the urge to get close to him, calmly sitting across from him.
Yan Sijue never once looked at her, he was holding his phone, seemingly browsing sothing on it, his thin lips slightly pressed together.
Ada instructed the servants to serve dinner, Mu Yiliang picked up the cutlery, but seeing Yan Sijue had no reaction, she couldn’t help but softly say, "Si Jue, let’s eat."
The man was unmoved.
Mu Yiliang felt a little discouraged and began to eat first, but she had no appetite, and soon put down her utensils.
Only then did Yan Sijue take action, setting his phone aside, and began to eat.
Mu Yiliang looked at his extraordinarily attractive yet extrely cold face, her heart felt a slight bitterness, she couldn’t help but turn her eyes away and took a deep breath.
At this mont, Sophie ca in holding a bowl of soup, smiling brightly as she approached Yan Sijue, "Sir, I specially stewed so soup for you, it’s especially nourishing, would you like to try so?"
