Chapter 378: Candlelight Dinner

As soon as Shu Yue and Shu Ziming got upstairs, they were pulled away to work.

The entire floor had to be cleaned, one was assigned to clean the windows and the other to mop the floor.

"Work faster and clean everything for me. There can't be even a speck of dust. If I find you slacking off, I'll fire you immediately!"

There was someone supervising behind me, with a fierce tone.

Shu Yue was mopping the floor and chatting with the person next to her.

"Auntie, you work so hard as cleaners, and you are bullied by others. Can you still continue to do this?"

The cleaning lady glanced at Shu Yue and looked her up and down. Although she was wearing a mask, it could be seen that she was young.

"Girl, you look so young, are you here to do a part-time job? I haven't seen you before."

"I just arrived today." Shu Yue continued.

"No wonder you didn't know. The treatment here is very good."

"What did you say?" Shu Yue asked curiously.

"As a full-time cleaner, each person is responsible for one area in this building. That's 10,000 yuan a month, and the work pressure is not too great."

The cleaning lady raised a finger and was extremely satisfied with the salary.

Shu Yue stared at her finger with her eyes widened.

"Ten thousand a month?"

"Yes, we also pay five insurances and one fund, and have paid annual leave."

Shu Yue was moved after hearing this.

Is cleaning so enjoyable? If she had known earlier, she would have gone straight to work as a cleaner in a big company after graduating from university!

"You two? Don't want to do this anymore?"

A fierce voice came from behind, and the two people started mopping the floor again with great effort.

"What's the purpose of this big cleaning today? It's so clean."

Shu Yue avoided supervision and asked the cleaning lady in a low voice.

"I don't know the details, but every year at this time, Mr. Xu would clean this floor thoroughly and then chase everyone away."

The cleaning lady lowered her voice and spoke every word to Shu Yue.

"I heard that some people heard a woman crying on this floor every year at this time."

The cleaning lady looked around and found that no one was paying attention to the two of them. She continued in a low voice, "Also, this floor is usually like a forbidden area. No one is allowed to enter. It's only when the time comes that we are asked to come up to clean."

What the aunt said was very mysterious and had some horror elements, and Shu Yue became more and more interested in it.

After quickly cleaning, someone came to check the hygiene conditions. After confirming that it was qualified, everyone was allowed to leave, and each person was given a red envelope before leaving.

Shu Yue took the red envelope with surprise, opened it and took a look, and found that there was only five dollars in it.

Sure enough, Xu Si is still stingy.

But the salary for cleaning staff is really high and the benefits are also good.

A large group of people came downstairs. Shu Yue was squatting in the corner. Seeing Shu Ziming mixed in the crowd, she reached out and pulled him out.

"What's wrong?"

Before Shu Ziming could say anything, Shu Yue pulled him into a small room.

"Let's not go back yet. There will be a good show tonight." Shu Yue smiled maliciously.

"The good show has to be saved for the evening. It's still a few hours before dark." Shu Ziming glanced at the time.

"Aren't you curious about what's on this floor? And why is it so clean?" Shu Yue asked him.

Shu Ziming shook his head.

"I'm not curious."

"No wonder you can't be the male lead. The protagonist must be curious and have a spirit of exploration. Otherwise, how can you discover other people's secrets?" Shu Yue said clearly.

"No wonder you can be the heroine."

Shu Yue was speechless.

Seeing her expression, Shu Ziming smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's go watch the show you mentioned tonight."

Shu Yue's phone rang. She opened it and saw that it was a message from Fu Jingshen.

Fu Jingshen: How are things going between you and Shu Ziming? When will you be back?

He and Shu Huai have already returned to the hotel.

Shu Yue: It might be a little later. We plan to see what secrets this floor has at night.

Fu Jingshen: Keep in touch at all times and be careful.

Shu Yue: I understand. Don’t worry.

The room is not big, but fortunately there are tables and chairs for sitting and resting.

Shu Yue and Shu Ziming had just sat down to watch a show in the evening when they heard noises coming from outside.

She walked forward cautiously, opened the door a little and looked out, and found that many people had come in, carrying all kinds of beautiful flowers.

Suddenly, someone walked towards the door where Shu Yue and the others were. Shu Ziming immediately pulled Shu Yue and hid behind the curtains. The blackout curtains blocked the two of them tightly.

The person outside pushed the door open, turned on the light, and moved the long table out directly.

"Hurry up, Mr. Xu will be here soon."

Someone shouted something and everyone moved quickly.

There was a lot of banging noises outside, I didn't know what was going on.

Only when the sound died down did Shu Yue and Shu Ziming come out from behind the curtains.

He opened the door a crack and made sure there was no one outside before he dared to go out.

"Oh my god, Xu Si wants to have a candlelight dinner here?"

Shu Yue looked at the scene in front of her with surprise.

The long table was covered with a white lace tablecloth, the candles were lit with bright red flames dancing, flowers were arranged on and around the table, and there was a piano standing next to the dining table.

The tableware had already been laid out, the freshly-fried steak was still steaming, the red wine had been decanted and placed on the table, and the lighting was soft and beautiful. It could be said to be a very romantic candlelight dinner.

The elevator makes a ding sound when it comes up.

After hearing this, Shu Yue separated from Shu Ziming and hid away.

Fortunately, the lighting was dim and it was not easy to be noticed even if I hid in the corner.

The elevator door opened and Xu Si walked out, wearing a well-fitting suit and holding a briefcase in his hand.

The leather shoes fell on the tile floor.

Da da da da…

He walked to the chair and took out a small white bottle from his breast pocket. He held the porcelain bottle and looked at it for a while, then put it on the table.

I walked to the other side, pulled out a chair and sat down.

“A year has passed so quickly.”

Xu Si suddenly spoke.

Shu Yue looked around, but there was no one there. Was he talking to himself?

After waiting for several minutes but no one came, Shu Yue thought that this was Xu Si's one-man show.

"I gave your ring to someone. That person said he knew you well, but he didn't want to tell me what his relationship with you was."

Xu Si picked up the decanted red wine in front of him and poured it into the glass, shaking the bright red wine, again and again, until he tilted his head back and took the first sip.

"But I checked it out, and now I know. I'm looking forward to it."

With just a few words, Shu Yue was able to guess the general idea.

He was mourning the death of Chen Xinyi.

Moreover, Shu Yue was very familiar with the file bag in his hand. That was the reason why she and Shu Ziming came in pretending to be cleaners today.

They swapped the paternity test report between Xu Si and Fu Heming before it fell into Xu Si's hands.

The real paternity test report showed that Fu Heming and Xu Si had no blood relationship. After they stole the report, they put it into the shredder.

The one in Xu Si's hand is a fake.

Moreover, it shows that they are related by blood!
