“You’re so picky. Then stir-fry tomatoes with eggs should be fine! Haha…” Chi Yaoxi couldn’t help but laugh after saying that.

Xiao Ye was really speechless. When he came to the kitchen and saw the way Chi Yaoxi was holding the knife, he was scared. It was obvious that she didn’t know how to cook. How did this woman usually live alone??Forget it, forget it.?Xiao Ye quickly told her to put down the knife and to wash the vegetables.

Chi Yaoxi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. She tied the apron around Xiao Ye’s waist, happily relaxing herself. “But I still wonder, Xiao Ye, how did you find me?”

As Xiao Ye cooked, he said, “How many years have we known each other? I know your habits. Every time you’re in a bad mood, you like to shop in the supermarket alone. That supermarket is the closest to your house, so I came straight here.”

“Oh, you still understand me the best.” Chi Yaoxi looked at Xiao Ye who was seriously cooking, feeling grateful. She felt that sometimes, he was like a big brother who cared for others. Sometimes, he was like a good friend who could play together.

It was time to eat. This was the most peaceful meal Chi Yaoxi had eaten in the past few days. Her phone was switched off, her computer was turned off, and all external news had nothing to do with her.

After the meal, Xiao Ye repeatedly told Chi Yaoxi not to think too much about it. She’ll cross the bridge when the time comes. He told her to eat and rest well, and then sat on the sofa for a while before returning to the company.

Chi Yaoxi returned to her room to rest. The large room was quiet and empty. When she was usually busy, she rarely had time to go home. Now that she was completely free, Chi Yaoxi felt empty inside.

It was said that she was isolated from the world and did not care about anything. But it was not that easy to not think about it. She had worked hard for a few years, but her career was ruined just like that. Where was her future…

Just now, when she was cooking with Xiao Ye, Chi Yaoxi did her best to look happy and relaxed. It was also to make him feel at ease. But all of it was forced out. Lying on the bed, Chi Yaoxi was in low spirits and could not help but let her imagination run wild.

A knock came from outside. Chi Yaoxi hurriedly put on her slippers and walked out.

Did Xiao Ye forget to bring something??Chi Yaoxi opened the door and was just about to speak when she was stunned. It was her father, Chi Jianming.?Why was he here?

The last time he asked her for money, she didn’t give it to him. He even wanted to create a ruckus at the entrance of the hotel. Now, he was asking for money again?

“Yaoxi, how are you now? Dad already knows. It’s really not easy for you.” Chi Jianming pushed open the door and walked into the living room.

Chi Yaoxi felt a bit absent-minded.?Did she hear wrongly? Was this what her father said?

When Chi Jianming saw Chi Yaoxi following behind him and looking at him with an unfamiliar gaze, he quickly turned around and held Chi Yaoxi’s hand. “Daughter, don’t blame Daddy. It’s all Daddy’s fault in the past. I shouldn’t have been so angry with you. Don’t worry in the future. No matter what happens to you, Daddy will welcome you home. We’re still family!”

When Chi Yaoxi was at her lowest and most difficult time, she could hear her father’s caring words, her heart was a bit moved.

Even though her father did not care enough for her in the past and even picked on her faults, when she was the saddest, he still specially went so far to visit her. Chi Yaoxi’s kind heart was easily moved.

Chi Yaoxi poured a glass of water for her father. The two of them chatted briefly. Although she could not help, her father’s caring words were a rare comfort to Chi Yaoxi.

“Oh, Yaoxi, you don’t have to worry too much. All bad things will pass. Take care of your health. I brought you the ginseng soup. It was just cooked in the afternoon. Drink it while it’s hot.”

“Okay. Thanks, Dad.”

“Alright, then I’ll go back first. If there’s anything you need help with, call me. Oh right, remember to drink the soup while it’s hot.”

Having just eaten her lunch, Chi Yaoxi placed the soup on the dining table, not intending to drink it immediately.

After her father left, she went back to her room to read some books and rest when she was tired.

After more than ten minutes, the room was suddenly pitch black. There was a blackout.?Aiya, this was a rare occurrence.?Chi Yaoxi quickly got up to look for the emergency light. She remembered that it was in the dressing table cabinet in the room.

Chi Yaoxi felt around as she walked forward. Before she could find the light, she suddenly heard the door outside open. She was about to go out and take a look when she heard her father and stepmother talking outside.

“A blackout is a good thing. Turn on the flashlight later and lower your voice. You won’t wake her up, right?” It was her stepmother’s voice.

“Don’t worry, she drank the soup. She should be sleeping soundly at this time.” It was her father, Chi Jianming’s voice.

“Are you sure you know where she places her property certificates?”

“The study. Go there. I know my own daughter. I heard from her that the safe is in the study. The important documents and valuables are inside, but I don’t know if the password has been changed.”

“I reminded you two days ago when the incident happened. This time, Chi Yaoxi will definitely be done for. We have to quickly think of a way to take away all her valuables. Otherwise, when the time comes, we’ll have to compensate others, and we won’t have anything left.” This was her stepmother’s voice. Chi Yaoxi covered her mouth in shock, completely stunned.

This was too much! Was this still considered a family??She hadn’t done anything, yet they only wanted to get the money and the property deed! When she was in the most difficult situation, not only did her family not help her, they even came up with a sinister plan to reap benefits and snatch valuable things!

What made Chi Yaoxi even angrier was her father, Chi Jianming! She chose to believe her father again, but now she realized how stupid she had been!

Initially, she thought that her father was genuinely here to comfort her. He had come all the way here to bring her hot soup so that she could take care of herself. She did not expect that the soup was drugged, that she would fall asleep after drinking it so that they could take the chance to steal.

How fortunate, Chi Yaoxi thought. Fortunately, she did not drink that bowl of soup. If she drank it and fell asleep, the consequences would be unimaginable.

What kind of father and stepmother is this! She would have nothing to do with them in the future. They were clearly two old thieves!

Chi Yaoxi hid behind the door, hesitating whether she should call the police immediately. Against such a bold old thief, the police should be mobilized. However, Chi Yaoxi thought about it again. Sigh! There were too many things happening now. If the police arrested them, the matter would blow up again and affect her badly.

Chi Yaoxi took out her phone and secretly called Sister Ming, asking her to come quickly. There was an urgent matter that she needed help with, the sooner the better!

Fortunately, Sister Ming’s place was not far from Chi Yaoxi’s house. In less than five minutes, Sister Ming arrived panting.

Two people were complaining to each other in the study.

“Didn’t you say you know the password? Why can’t you open it? The safe is so heavy, you can’t take it away!”
