Bai Yuejie frowned, about to tell her to leave, but then remembered: Ling Yan hated having strangers move around on his turf.
The group that had just arrived en masse clearly held Ling Yan in high regard.
Now, to leave an idiot behind here, surely... it couldn't, and they wouldn't dare do it on purpose.
So, there was only one possibility.
That is... they had forgotten her.
Bai Yuejie looked at Shi Mei, especially when she saw her tender face that seemed almost squeezable, her eyes filled with barely concealed jealousy.
Shi Mei, looking frightened, shrank into the corner, shivering.
Seeing her foolish demeanor, Bai Yuejie finally felt a sense of relief.
It might be good to leave her here; Ling Yan was bad-tempered and certainly wouldn't have the patience to take care of an idiot.
Being driven away was just a matter of time.
Bai Yuejie was sure of it and stepped out, closing the door behind her.
Little did she know, just as the door closed, Shi Mei's eyebrows slightly raised, and her gaze fell on the wardrobe in the room.
From that end, the rustling sounds of dressing and a man making a phone call could be heard, "Check where I was last night, with whom, and also comb through the surveillance near Shi Wuzhou."
Yun Du probably received such a task for the first time, his bewildered voice came through the phone speaker, "Boss, weren't you drinking with Bao Gui last night? It seemed like you just went home after that. Is something wrong?"
Ling Yan thought for a moment, "Who brought me back last night?"
"Yeah, I even called you last night. It was Bao Gui who answered, saying you were passed out..."
"A woman slipped in last night."
Yun Du was shocked, "Who? A woman? Slipped into where? Shi Wuzhou?"
"That's impossible, Shi Wuzhou's defenses are so tight, with surveillance and infrared everywhere, not to mention various anti-theft systems. They aren't just for show; unless someone had the fingerprint, iris, or password, who could have slipped in?" Yun Du became more incredulous as he spoke, "Moreover, the passwords of Shi Wuzhou have been known only to you and Tang Wu for many years, and there have never been any issues. Could it be... you were too drunk and... forgot to close the door?"
Ling Yan's eyebrows deeply furrowed as he fastened the last button and walked out of the wardrobe.
He had no recollection of last night's events at all.
The only thing he felt was that exhilarating thrill that he hadn't experienced since Tang Wu died three years ago. It was the only meaty encounter since then.
Moreover, last night's woman really resembled Tang Wu a lot.
Whether it was the fragrance she wore, the lazy way she called his name, or... the way she indulged herself on him, she was just like his her.
However, that woman was there for the first time.
Based on this alone, Ling Yan could assert it definitely wasn't Tang Wu.
Tang Wu had been gone for three years.
She couldn't possibly come back.
Yun Du didn't hear Ling Yan's response, feeling somewhat uneasy, said, "I think it's more likely that you didn't close the door. If someone had forcefully intruded, Tang Jingming would have received the alarm immediately – Xia Country's top hacker isn't just for show..."
Yun Du continued talking, but Ling Yan no longer listened.
Because, unbeknownst to him, another person had appeared in his room.
A girl dressed from head to toe in light pink was sitting on his bedroom floor, happily playing with an Okamoto 003 she had found somewhere.
