Cheng Xiulu was humiliated to the point that she was at a loss for words, and her face had turned a ghastly pale . Without waiting for Yu Yuehan to instruct her to leave, she hastily slipped away .
She even forgot to take the hair clip on the coffee table .
Nian Xiaomu looked up, and her eyes were filled with delight . From the corner of her eye, she could see that Yu Yuehan was still in the living room, so she did not dare to step out of line .
Thinking carefully, she respectfully said, "Young Master, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave . . . "
"You, follow me to the study room," Yu Yuehan coldly interrupted her, then walked past her and went upstairs .
Nian Xiaomu was still in a daze when his regal figure disappeared at the staircase .
The butler at the side quickly reminded her, "Nian Xiaomu, Young Master called for you! Hurry up!"
Nian Xiaomu: " . . . "
So it wasn't an illusion and he had really called her?
What if he still did not believe that she had not stolen the hair clip?
Nian Xiaomu's mind was filled with questions . Pouting her lips, she dragged her feet up the staircase .
When she reached the study room, she found that the door was only ajar and not closed shut .
"Young Master, I am coming in," she called out before reaching out to push the door open .
Just when she was about to enter the room, she became slightly stunned .
Yu Yuehan was sitting at his work desk . The work desk was made of unprocessed wood, and the wooden scent softened the chilly air about him .
The faint light behind him shone in through the windows and created a halo around him .
His face was slightly tilted, and his skin was more delicate than a woman's . The shadow cast from his sharp nose made his features even more defined .
Without knowing why, while admiring the scene before her, her mind strangely replayed the words that he had said to Cheng Xiulu earlier . " . . . accuse my person of stealing . Don't you think that you owe me an explanation?"
His person . . .
Nian Xiaomu's heart skipped a beat .
So this was what it felt like to have someone to depend on .
She knew very well that Yu Yuehan might not have done it to stand up for her; maybe he did not want to be embarrassed because of her .
She also saw clearly that it was only when Cheng Xiulu had brought up Matriarch Yu that he had stepped in .
Her heart, however, just naturally began beating erratically because of his words .
To whoever had said that women's good looks would bring trouble, she would say that it was the same for men .
There was a demon right in front of her!
"Are you pleased with what you're looking at?" A frosty voice rang in her ears .
Nian Xiaomu snapped out of her daze only to realize that she had been ogling at his gorgeousness!
Raising her head, she met with his deep and soulful eyes . She could not tell if the question he had asked was a serious one or if he was only teasing her .
Nian Xiaomu cleared her throat awkwardly, trying to hide her guilt .
"Young Master, why did you want to speak with me?"
"I thought you might have something that you would want to explain to me in private . " Yu Yuehan placed his elbows on the work desk, propping his beautiful chin with his interlocked fingers .
He obviously did not do anything, but his whole disposition was compelling and pressurizing .
Nian Xiaomu thought to herself that he really had not believed her and pouted her lips .
"What I said earlier is the truth . I only escorted Madam back to her courtyard . She asked me to put on her hair clip for her, so I helped her to do so . . . "
Nian Xiaomu had only explained herself a little when she realized that there was something strange about the way he was looking at her .
It was like the eyes of a hawk waiting to pounce on its prey .
Her body trembled a little, and she abruptly stopped talking .
Without time to think about how she had offended him, Nian Xiaomu heard his indifferent voice speak, "When did you discover that the diamond on the hair clip was a fake?"
