————————————————
Now, Young Master Xiao was so engrossed in watching TV that it became almost a deviation. She thought it best to notify Secretary Liu promptly so that he could find a solution, perhaps even consult a psychologist for some guidance. Otherwise, it would be a shame if the child sank deeper into this.
Truthfully, her interactions with Xiao Yi were not frequent—only on the rare occasions when he stayed home over the weekend or didn’t go to school would they bump into each other. However, her impression of Xiao Yi was quite favorable. Perhaps it was because she had initially felt pity for him; although he lived in a luxurious villa and didn’t worry about food or clothing, being an illegitimate child who couldn’t even use his father’s surname seemed pitiful. Moreover, from what she understood, Mr. Chen didn’t visit him very often. During their rare interactions, although Xiao Yi wasn’t overtly respectful, he was always polite and didn’t exhibit the typical arrogance or impulsiveness of young boys, always nodding and smiling at her.
She really hoped that nothing tragic would happen to such a young boy.
"You didn’t see him?"
Xiao Yi, unaware of Auntie Li’s current thoughts, revealed a deeply disappointed expression upon hearing her words and murmured, "Could it be that he left?"
"Young Master Xiao, what did you say?"
Auntie Li didn’t catch Xiao Yi’s quiet murmur and seeing him talk to himself with a look of deep disappointment, she couldn’t help but ask.
"It’s nothing, Auntie Li. I won’t disturb you anymore, please continue your cleaning."
Xiao Yi shook his head, his eyes filled with immense loss, waved his hand and slowly walked downstairs.
It was a pity, he had just left...
Such a pity...
There were still so many questions he wanted to ask him.
As he walked down the stairs in a daze, various questions circulated in his mind. Who was he, why did he protect him, warn him, and why did he come to save him?
And... how did he save him? How did he recover so quickly from his injuries?
He wanted to ask all these questions to the monk.
But now, he was gone, and if he didn’t return, these questions wouldn’t be answered anytime soon...
And, driven by an intuition, he felt that the monk might not appear again, at least not for a while...
Alas... such a wise person appeared before him yesterday, and he failed to recognize his greatness, mistaking him for a Jianghu Sorcerer, a fraud, even contemplating making a fool of him. It seemed, his connection with him wasn’t deep...
Recalling yesterday morning, a bitter smile involuntarily appeared on Xiao Yi’s face.
It seems, Young Master Xiao is indeed deeply caught up in this, Auntie Li thought as she saw Xiao Yi’s face shift between being lost and then showing a bitter smile, shaking her head involuntarily and sighing deeply.
"Eh?"
As he reached the downstairs, when Xiao Yi subconsciously went to the fridge to grab something, his face froze again.
He actually got something!
At the moment he reached for it, he hadn’t thought much, but as his hand reached into the fridge and felt the chill emanating from inside, his expression involuntarily froze.
Subconsciously, his gaze swept over every corner of the hall, his face instantly displaying an incredulous expression.
In the living room, everything was exactly as it had been!
The TV, the sofa, the refrigerator, all the things were almost the same as before...
Last night... when he fought the pale-faced man, didn’t everything turn to dust? Not to mention, the genuine leather sofa and the coffee table that he knew of, had definitely shattered into pieces!
But soon, Xiao Yi found that everything had changed, everything was brand new, obviously newly purchased, even a transparent plastic bag covering the TV hadn’t been removed yet!
So that’s how it is...
A look of sudden realization appeared on Xiao Yi’s face.
Wait a minute!
But soon, Xiao Yi felt that something was amiss again. How could everything from last night have been repaired so quickly by today? Even if Chen Jianguo was no ordinary person, to clear up the chaotic battlefield and then fix all these things, it would still take at least a few hours, right?
What time is it now?
"Auntie Li!"
Xiao Yi glanced at the light outside and his expression changed as he called upward.
"Yes, yes, Young Master Xiao, what is it? Is something the matter?"
Hearing Xiao Yi’s voice, Auntie Li, who had just entered Xiao Yi’s room to clean, quickly put down her broom and hurried down the stairs.
"Auntie Li, when were these things bought?"
Xiao Yi asked, pointing at the furniture in front of him.
"Oh, you mean these things!"
Hearing Xiao Yi inquire about the furniture, Auntie Li quickly smiled and said, "These items were personally selected and brought back by Secretary Liu last week, Young Master Xiao. Is there anything you don’t like? I’ll have someone come and replace it."
After speaking, Auntie Li suddenly remembered something, and her gaze towards Xiao Yi showed a hint of strangeness. She muttered silently to herself, wondering if it could have been Young Master Xiao who had damaged those items. If so, his destructive power was quite excessive, and besides, how could a normal person cause such damage? She remembered clearly having to pick up every single piece of the shattered remnants.
The coffee table was smashed into pieces, the sofa was torn into fragments, and there was not a single spot in the entire hall that was intact, even the walls had several big holes; the whole house looked as if it had been through a major explosion.
"What did you say? Last week?"
Hearing Auntie Li’s words, Xiao Yi exclaimed in shock, once again displaying a stunned expression.
"Yes, last week, Young Master Xiao, what’s the matter?"
Auntie Li said somewhat puzzled, she couldn’t understand why Xiao Yi was reacting so vehemently.
Looking at the dumbfounded expression on Xiao Yi’s face, Auntie Li suddenly felt a chill in her heart, feeling that something was off with Young Master Xiao today—he had been mumbling about a monk that couldn’t possibly exist, and now he had this look...
And then there was that incident last week...
The day after the incident, Secretary Liu told her that Young Master Xiao had gone on a trip...
Could it be...
Yes, it must be the case. Otherwise, how could a grown man like him, in his right senses, blow up a living room like that? Besides, with such tight security here, who would be so full to sneak in and bomb the furniture...(To be continued.
