Chu Ci, who was listening to the Chu family's steward chattering about the Chu family's business situation, frowned and raised her eyebrows slightly.
The steward, who had always been pessimistic about Chu Ci, also paused, looking at Chu Ci's little face, feeling the atmosphere of dissatisfaction unconsciously revealed around her.
Facing Chu Ci, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva for the first time, feeling a little timid.
"Master, do you think there is anything wrong?" This was the first time the steward spoke to Chu Ci so cautiously.
Chu Ci then raised his eyes to glance at the steward. There was not much expression on his little face. In fact, he still looked like the original young master of the Chu family, but there seemed to be something wrong with his aura.
But if you insist on saying what is wrong, you can't put your finger on it.
Maybe this time he really knows his identity and can't act recklessly. Has he grown up and become sensible?
The steward lowered his eyes and thought.
"It's okay, I know the general situation. Just leave the things here and you can go down." Chu Ci nodded and spoke.
Only after the supervisor left did Chu Ci stand up, frowning and looking at the numerical panel.
A look of confusion flashed across his eyes.
It seems like she didn't do anything, right? They just had someone replace the water and then lowered her love value?
Cheng Anan, who was standing behind him, looked at Chu Ci with a thoughtful expression and bent down slightly. "Master, the Xue family is indeed a bit difficult to deal with. Do you need me to report this to the old master?"
The old man that Cheng Anan mentioned is Chu Ci's grandfather. He was once a powerful figure in the political arena and now he has a considerable status.
Therefore, the marriage of Chu's father and mother was largely due to this "strong alliance".
"No need, we still have the advantage." The young boy held a document and looked at it carefully with his eyes lowered.
The calm demeanor made Cheng Anan feel relieved. She straightened up and watched Chu Ci finish reading the book, then close it and put it aside.
Then she stood up and glanced at her watch.
It's almost six o'clock in the afternoon.
"It's time to eat." Cheng Anan reminded Chu Ci from behind.
Chu Ci responded and walked out of the study. When passing by the door of Qin Yishu's room, she paused slightly and looked at the door with her eyes tilted to the side.
Because the rooms were allocated when Chu's father was still alive, the original owner did not do anything about it. Just when Chu Ci paused, a servant who was tidying the room came up from the stairs. Chu Ci looked away and started walking again.
Seeing the servant bow his head respectfully, he spoke as he passed by the servant, "Call Qin Yishu down for dinner."
The servant was stunned when he heard this. He turned around and saw only Chu Ci's back, then he quickly responded.
Everyone knew that the new head of the family disliked this so-called younger brother who was living here as a guest, and the servants also looked down on him.
But now...? Is this young master about to make a comeback, or is this just another form of entertainment for the patriarch?
The servants did not dare to guess any more and hurried to knock on Qin Yishu's door.
Chu Ci waited at the dining table for about five minutes before Qin Yishu slowly walked down from upstairs. This time, he dared to look at her directly, with inquiry and a hint of hesitation in his eyes. Perhaps it was because he had been abused in various ways and rarely communicated with others, so he always had a gloomy feeling about him.
