Chapter 21 A Secret Hides Behind the Door

Chapter Twenty-One: A Secret Hides Behind the Door

Yue Yirou barely managed to suppress the urge to go back to her room, take off her skirt, and tear it to shreds.

She no longer found the dress beautiful or comfortable.

Yue Yirou rolled her eyes and sighed as her gaze fell on the tray in Xue Tao's hands: "He still doesn't want to come down for dinner? How long is he going to stay angry? It's already yesterday, and he's still not in a good mood. Is he still working so hard?"

When will she be able to leave this place?

As Xue Tao placed the food onto the tray, he said, "Yes. Miss Yue, if you feel bored, you can go for a walk outside after lunch. The scenery at Xingye Pavilion is picturesque and the air is fresh, which will make you feel much better."

After sitting on the sofa in the living room for more than half an hour after dinner, Yue Yirou stood up and walked out the door.

But just as she reached the door, she suddenly turned around, walked quickly to the elevator with a look of grim determination, pressed the button, and went inside.

The elevator stopped on the third floor. After the doors opened, Yue Yirou walked out, her gaze fixed on the direction of Yan Ye's study, her face still bearing a look of grim determination.

She couldn't bear to wait in this state of confusion and pain any longer; every minute and every second here was torture for her.

She missed Tingyun; she wanted to get back to him as soon as possible.

She'd have to face Yan Ye sooner or later anyway, and she'd seen him angry before. If she couldn't persuade him, she'd make a fool of him eventually. So she might as well act sooner rather than later.

As she approached the study door, out of politeness, she instinctively raised her hand to knock. However, she thought that if he knew beforehand that she had come to see him, he probably wouldn't even let her in.

Let's just push the door open and go in.

Yue Yirou put her hand on the doorknob, quickly turned the doorknob, and went inside.

"Mr. Yan..."

The room was brightly lit with the curtains drawn, but it was empty.

The bathroom door was open, but there was no one inside.

Yan Ye wasn't in the study, so he must be in the bedroom.

Yue Yirou turned and walked out of the study, opened the door to the bedroom next door and went in: "Mr. Yan..."

Yan Ye's bedroom was large and luxurious, but quite clean, and there was a faint minty fragrance in the air, which was Yan Ye's scent.

But Yan Ye was not in the room.

Didn't they say he was working incredibly hard?

If he's not in the study or the bedroom, where is he working so hard?

When she came up, Butler Xue hadn't brought his meal down yet, which meant he was probably still eating. Could it be that there was a restaurant upstairs specifically for him to eat?

With this question in mind, Yue Yirou walked out of the bedroom and went into the remaining rooms one by one, but none of them looked like a dining room, and she didn't see Yan Ye or Xue Tao either.

"You cannot go up to the third floor or above."

Recalling Xue Tao's words, Yue Yirou shifted her gaze towards the stairs; she wanted to go up to the fourth floor to take a look.

Soon, Yue Yirou went up the stairs to the fourth floor.

This was her first time coming up to the fourth floor. There was only one door in the middle of the corridor.

For some reason, looking at that lonely door, she had a feeling that some unknown secret was hidden behind it.

Will Yan Ye and Xue Tao be inside?

Yue Yirou slowed her pace and walked step by step toward the lonely door in the middle.

Suddenly, I remembered the crying I heard in the middle of the night last night. Was that really a dream?
