As soon as Yu Xiuzhun entered his office, he immediately turned his head and gave instructions to his assistant.

"Yes."

The assistant had just stood still and then quickly turned around to carry out the order.

...

After spending the whole day at the office, Ye Mingmei lay down on the table after work, blinking at the newspaper by her hand.

Yu Xiuzhun was starting to take action again.

His quietness this week was only because she was ill.

He had no intention of mending his ways.

The bird’s nest Yu Xiuzhun sent over had already been given away by her, but she didn’t feel any lighter at heart.

She didn’t even want to leave the office, afraid she’d run into Yu Xiuzhun in the parking lot.

"Miss, you don’t look well. I poured you a cup of hot water." The secretary entered the office with a cup of water and placed it on Ye Mingmei’s table.

"I’m fine; you can leave work now." Ye Mingmei glanced at the secretary, got up from her chair, took the cup and had a sip before reaching for her bag.

She didn’t leave, so even the secretary couldn’t leave on time.

Out of the office, Ye Mingmei wandered around again and only entered the parking lot after the off-work time had passed.

Not seeing Yu Xiuzhun, she quickly walked to her car.

Without saying a word, she drove home.

Back in her room, she clearly felt something was wrong.

When she took off her shoes just now, it seemed like many pairs were missing from the shoe cabinet...

Was it her illusion?

Ye Mingmei turned back, reopened the shoe cabinet.

They were really gone.

A whole row of high heels in her shoe cabinet, all gone!

"Butler."

Ye Mingmei walked to the living room, just about to ask the butler, when something flashed in her mind, and she suddenly stopped.

Turning back to her room, she took out her phone to call Yu Xiuzhun.

The call was quickly answered.

"It’s dinner time now, where are you? Let me pick you up for dinner." Without waiting for Ye Mingmei to speak, Yu Xiuzhun’s magnetic voice came clearly through the phone.

It flowed so smoothly as if he had been the one to make the call.

"I’m not in the mood to have dinner with you, Yu Xiuzhun. Did you enter my house today?"

The servants in the villa wouldn’t dare touch her shoes.

And what a coincidence, Yu Xiuzhun just mentioned bringing back shoes today, and her high heels disappeared!

"No." Yu Xiuzhun responded without a hint of shame or breathlessness.

With a leisurely tone, Ye Mingmei could even imagine him flicking his fingers while sitting on the sofa.

She suddenly got stuck.

"You called just to ask if I came to find you? If you want to see me, I’ll come pick you up right now."

"In your dreams! I just want to know, who the hell stole all my high heels?" Ye Mingmei shouted angrily.

"Oh, what a pity, I don’t know the guy you’re talking about." Yu Xiuzhun added slowly, "But I think high heels are troublesome; if they’re lost, they’re lost. They’re uncomfortable to wear, and since your health isn’t good, why make yourself suffer?"

"..."

She normally didn’t mind not wearing them, but for banquets and dinners, she couldn’t possibly pair a gown with flats, right?!

Unable to get answers, Ye Mingmei hung up the phone directly.

Without alarming the butler, she quietly entered the surveillance room and got out today’s surveillance tapes.

After searching for a long time, she finally saw a dark figure sneak into the Ye Family, not stealing anything but heading straight for the shoe cabinet, and taking all her high heels away!
