Chapter 431 431 Strange Dream (2)
Si Ye quietly looked at his current appearance in the mirror for a while. It seemed a little strange, but he soon got used to it.
He is now the young master of Dongfang City. What else does he need to worry about?
Si Ye tried hard to ignore the uneasy feeling in his heart, left the room, and prepared to meet his father as his mother had instructed.
He actually didn't like seeing that man, but this was what his mother said and he had to listen, otherwise she would be unhappy.
He doesn't want to be a bad boy who makes his mother sad!
"Young City Lord—" As soon as he stepped out of the room, the maids on duty in the corridor greeted him in unison.
Si Ye nodded at them as if nothing had happened, and followed the muscle memory of his feet as he moved through the building.
It was morning now, and according to experience, his father should have just finished meeting with the ministers and was alone in the study studying documents, or discussing various affairs in the city with his master.
The place where they live now is the largest and most imposing building in Oriental City. It is made entirely of stone bricks, has three floors in total, and is decorated with countless gold and jade.
The whole building has three floors. The lowest floor is the reception room and activity area, the middle floor is the office room, and the top third floor is the bedroom where they rest.
The maids' rooms, as well as functional areas such as the kitchen, are placed separately outside to ensure maximum quietness and hygiene.
Si Ye went down from the third floor to the second floor and found the largest study room inside with ease. This was usually the daily office area for his father, Si Yuan, the lord of Dongfang City.
The orc standing guard at the door saw the young city lord coming and turned to go in to report, but was stopped by him.
He made a gesture to keep quiet, leaned against the door of the room, and listened attentively to the movements inside.
Very quiet.
My father should be the only one in there now.
Si Ye guessed so.
He asked the guard to open the door a crack, and he crouched down, stood on tiptoe, and quietly slipped in through the gap.
There was a screen between Si Yuan's desk and the door. Si Ye hid behind the screen, carefully observing the situation inside.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. A tall man sat at a large stone table with his head lowered, looking intently at something. He didn't seem to notice that there was another person in the room.
He had long snow-white hair tied up high behind his head. Because it was the hot season, he was only wearing a thin animal skin skirt. His skin was a healthy wheat color and his muscles were clearly defined.
The most obvious embellishment among them is the pair of emerald eyes that are 90% similar to Si Ye's.
Rich and deep, like a pool of calm water.
Si Ye didn't know that he had been discovered a long time ago. He was somewhat proud of his hiding ability and slowly moved from the screen to the desk.
But there was no place to hide in the middle, so he was still a little hesitant and did not move for a long time.
"Xiao Ye, how long are you going to hide?" Si Yuan realized that no one had appeared yet. He didn't have much time to waste on this, so he took the initiative to break the quiet atmosphere, "Why don't you come out?"
"Ah, have you noticed me a long time ago?" Si Ye shuddered subconsciously when he heard his father calling him, and then he slowly walked out from behind the screen.
With her head lowered in disappointment, she called out in a hoarse voice, "Father."
