Hearing this, the servants who had followed hesitated for a moment and stood still, not moving.
After all, the little girl’s body was affected by the drugs, transforming her into her current child-like appearance.
But she was still the Fifth Miss of the family, and how could they, mere servants, dare to overstep their bounds?
If one day the Fifth Miss were to recover, would they still be alive?
"What, she’s the master and I’m not?" the woman perceived the servants’ hesitation, "You don’t want to offend her but want to offend me?"
That remark gave the servants peace of mind.
Making up their minds, they stepped forward and seized the little girl, "Fifth Miss, please forgive us."
With the physical condition of the little girl at the time, she faced many limitations and was naturally no match for the physically strong servants.
Knowing she couldn’t escape, she didn’t struggle but looked at the woman with cold and fierce eyes.
The woman felt a shiver in her heart from the look but maintained a calm exterior, with a false bravery, "Fifth Miss, you are just going to stay in the tower for a while until you stop thinking about these illusions, and then you’ll naturally be able to come out."
Two servants quickly took the little girl away.
The woman furrowed her brows, showing the first signs of distaste, "Obsessing over a dead baby every day, it’s not just her body that’s a problem, but her mind too."
A servant tentatively asked, "Should we hire some hypnotists to treat the Fifth Miss for her delusions?"
"She’s just a child now, incapable of anything serious. She’s always jumping around, why should the family waste resources on her?" the woman said indifferently, unconcerned, "No need, a period of confinement will make her behave."
She adjusted the shawl on her body and tapped a few times on her electronic watch.
In the air, a transparent blue screen projected quickly.
The projection on the screen was of a young person in uniform.
"I just have a question," the woman began, "about the last time the Fifth Miss went out, oh yes, to that place called O continent, did she really find anyone?"
The young man was surprised for a moment and after checking, quickly replied, "No."
Relieved, the woman ended the communication.
As expected.
She had said it all along.
The daughter of the Lady of the House was dead.
A dead person, useless for anything, and nothing to fight over.
**
Over in O continent.
A breathtaking car rally had just concluded, and the Manson family had very generously allocated considerable resources and several A-class mercenary groups to the Xiu Family.
However, the mercenary groups could not enter Hua Country, so they could only be stationed in O continent to take care of all the transportation of goods.
With the Manson family as their guarantee, few in O continent dared to have any ideas.
"Miss Xiu," surprisingly, Patriarch Manson spoke fluent Chinese, "Thank you for bringing us such an exciting car racing show."
"It wasn’t just me." Xiu Yu shook hands with him, "It was also thanks to the navigator."
Having raced for five or six years, she knew how much help Ying Zijin had given her in this race.
"Yes, yes, the navigator was indeed amazing." Patriarch Manson too had just seen the girl’s true face and couldn’t help but be impressed, "Miss Ying, if you wish to enter the racing world, just let me know."
Ying Zijin was holding a glass of juice, diligently counting the fruit chunks inside, "No need, too much trouble."
She was only helping Xiu Yu and had no intention of entering the racing scene.
And, most importantly, she hardly ever drove a car herself.
One word, exhausting.
After all, she had a free chauffeur.
"My friend doesn’t really like to show up in public," Xiu Yu added, "Patriarch Manson, please keep it under wraps."
Patriarch Manson nodded his head, "I understand. It’s just a pity that the racing world is missing a genius."
Hearing this, Xiu Yu patted him on the shoulder in a bro-like manner, "No need for pity, the racing world won’t miss just one person."
Patriarch Manson: "???"
The time that followed was taken up by the business negotiation between the Manson family and the Xiu Family.
Ying Zijin didn’t stay any longer and returned to the newly booked hotel.
A WeChat group that had been quiet for a long time popped up with a multi-person call.
It was the Yi Character Team.
This group included Nie Yi and the captains of the Yi Character Team, including the Elite Team.
"Miss Ying, it’s me, we have a competition starting soon, can you come and advise us?"
"Miss Ying, please carry us."
"Yes, yes, yes, Miss Ying, please take us on, I swear you in as my master!"
The two captains of the Elite Team were very excited, and the team members were also clamoring.
It was obvious they were on speaker, as there was quite a bit of noise in the background.
Before Ying Zijin could speak, her phone was snatched from her hand.
Then a hand was forced into hers.
"..."
Ying Zijin slapped Fu Yunshen’s hand away, picked up some popcorn, and sat down on the couch to watch a movie.
Fu Yunshen sat down beside her, rubbed the top of her head, and spoke slowly, "Nie Yi, manage your subordinates, will you? Don’t bother my girlfriend, okay?"
"..."
There was silence on the other end for about ten seconds.
Then suddenly, exclamations rose and fell in a wave.
