Yan Qing walked to the door, already very angry. She pushed it with her hand, and the door opened completely. She walked in and shouted twice, but there was no response.
The utility room is usually used to store some things that are not often used.
Yan Qing didn't see Sophia at first, so she walked in. She called out to Sophia as she walked, but there was no response.
At this time, she was even more angry. What was wrong with Sophia? Why didn't she answer her? She thought that Sophia was afraid to respond because she felt guilty about doing something wrong, so she said, "Come out quickly. I have something to talk to you about. If you don't come out, I won't be polite."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of a door closing, followed by the sound of the door being locked.
When she walked over again, she found that the door was locked from the outside. She tried to open it but couldn't.
She realized she had been tricked into coming in.
So she shouted, "Let me out right now! What do you want to do? I'm the mistress of this house! Are you all crazy?"
The other servants were standing outside the door, but none of them opened it. Sophia was also standing outside. She looked at the shaking door and heard Yan Qing's shout. She smiled smugly and said, "Look, she's getting anxious now, but she deserves it. She doesn't treat us as human beings."
A servant nearby said, "But how long will we keep her here? What if something happens to her?"
Sophia frowned, "What does this have to do with you? I'll be responsible if anything goes wrong."
After hearing her say this, the people around her stopped talking.
Yan Qing kept shouting in the utility room, trying to get someone to open the door, but no one responded. She felt extremely regretful. Why did she let the family doctor leave? If he were still here, he would definitely help. She shouted several more times, "Open the door quickly," but there was still no response.
Now she knew that there was something very wrong with these servants. She had felt something was very strange about the manor from the moment she entered it.
She secretly swore that she would not let them off when she got out.
After she calmed down, she began to think about how to get out. Since she couldn't kick the door open, she had to use other methods. She looked around and there were no windows.
When she was cleaning her pocket, she accidentally touched it and suddenly she found that her cell phone was still in it.
After discovering this, she was very happy. She took out her mobile phone and called Huo Beiting, ready to ask Huo Beiting to rescue her. After she dialed the number, she suddenly found that there was no signal on the phone.
She couldn't make any phone calls at all, and there was nothing she could do. Only now did she realize how hateful these servants were.
Because it was her first time here, she was not familiar with this manor, but she was very familiar with the servants. They knew that there was no signal in this utility room, but they still deliberately brought her here.
"You disgusting people, just wait."
She threw away her cell phone, then walked to the door again and shook it with all her might, hoping to open it, but no matter how hard she shook, the door of the utility room remained tightly closed.
Yan Qing thought about it carefully. He thought that the servants had probably been prepared for this matter for a long time. They had been planning carefully and waiting for an opportunity. Now that Huo Beiting was out, they seized this opportunity to deliberately mess with him.
It seems that she still thought too simply of these servants.
Things at Huo Beiting's branch office went very smoothly, and he finished them in just one day.
Afterwards, he quickly returned to the manor according to the agreement between him and Yan Qing.
His sudden arrival frightened the servants.
But Sophia told them not to be afraid and to face Huo Beiting calmly so as not to reveal their true identity.
Although the other servants were a little nervous, they pretended to be calm and welcomed Huo Beiting back.
Huo Beiting's mind was completely focused on finding Yan Qing. After searching through every room, he couldn't find any trace of Yan Qing. So he asked, "Where is Yan Qing? Where did she go? Did she go out alone?"
The servants dared not speak, for they were afraid of saying the wrong thing.
Sophia frowned. She came out and said, "We don't know where she went."
After hearing this, Huo Beiting asked in confusion, "What do you mean? What do you mean you don't know where she went?"
"We don't know how to put it, but Yan Qing suddenly received a phone call a day ago, and then she went out. She hasn't been back since then. We thought she would come back this morning, but unfortunately she didn't show up."
"Phone call? What phone call?" Huo Beiting asked with a frown.
"We don't know who called, but I heard a man's voice."
"This matter must be very urgent, otherwise Yan Qing wouldn't have dropped everything and rushed out. She was so anxious at the time that she didn't even wear shoes when she left, she just walked out in slippers."
After hearing this, Huo Beiting found it even more incredible. They had some friends abroad, but those friends were not very familiar with Yan Qing.
So even if Yan Qing wanted to go out, she wouldn't be in such a hurry. She would definitely call me in advance, and then discuss a plan before going out together.
"Everything you said is true. Didn't you lie to me?"
Sophia stood up and assured him, "Everything we said is true. How dare we lie to you? Besides, we have been in this manor for a long time. Don't you know what kind of people we are?"
Huo Beiting just felt confused. He didn't know why this sudden situation happened. He was very anxious to see her, so he planned to go out and look for her himself.
"Why didn't you tell me about this in advance? I've been away for so long, can't you tell me what's happening at home? Are you all dumb?" he complained.
The servants didn't dare to speak; they just stood there in a daze.
Sophia thought for a moment and said, "It's not that we don't want to tell you, we just don't know how to tell you. Maybe Madam will be back soon, but we didn't expect Madam to not come back. We have no way of guessing what happened."
Although Huo Beiting was very angry, after hearing what Sophia said, he didn't want to blame anyone. This matter was too strange, and the most urgent thing was to find Yan Qing, so he hurried out of the manor.
But before he reached the door, he heard some footsteps. Sophia chased him out. She seemed to have something urgent to say. Seeing Huo Beiting stop, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, don't go out to look for someone."
