ick curtains were drawn tightly, sealing off the corridor's light so that only the doorway to the master bedroom was illuminated. The rest of the room was plunged into darkness, and the air hung heavy...Under the cover of night.

A slender figure nimbly leaped over the garden wall, slinking towards the villa.

Unseen, it seemed, every move she made was already captured in the eyes of a man.

"Master Fu, this girl appeared this afternoon. Her identity and purpose are currently unknown."

Fu Lingxiao sat on the leather sofa, his handsome face expressionless and unreadable. His dark eyes stared at the monitor screen, his fingertips tapping lightly on the armrest, revealing a powerful aura in his casual movements.

On the monitoring screen, a girl nimbly weaved through the garden. She crouched down, unhooked her backpack and began rummaging through it with her head buried inside.

"Take a closer look."

The man said in a low voice.

Bodyguard Yun Tuo immediately tapped the keyboard twice, magnifying the screen.

The next second, she clearly saw the girl take out a large white steamed bun from her backpack, taking two bites with relish. She then cautiously poked her head out to look around. Seeing nothing amiss, she stuffed the bun into her mouth, put on her backpack, and continued walking.

He didn't forget to take a few bites along the way.

As the girl gradually approached the villa, Yun Tuo asked, "Master Fu, should we apprehend her"

A fleeting, almost imperceptible smile crossed the man's obscure eyes. His finger paused, then he suddenly rose and walked out.

Yun Tuo was just about to follow, but Fu Lingxiao had already ordered, "You don't have to come."

"Master Fu, where are you going"

"Catch the mouse."

-Mu Xing came to the base of the villa wall and observed it, her pretty brows unconsciously furrowed.

With such a large villa, which room is the study

In order to investigate the fire at the Mu family's house twelve years ago, she must find what her master hid. By passing tests, she must prove to her master that she now has enough ability.

Having stuffed the last bun into his mouth, Mu Xing quickly backed away, intending to run and climb up the second-floor window. Who knew he suddenly bumped into a wall of flesh.

The back of her head slammed into a solid muscle, Mu Xing's brain buzzed instantly. She touched the back of her head and turned to look back.

At this time, a tall man stood behind her.

The top two buttons of the black shirt were undone, revealing a sexy collarbone. He wore black trousers on the bottom. It was a simple combination, but it exuded the mature man's dignified elegance from head to toe.

The moonlight bathed his face, each feature meticulously outlined as if drawn by an artist. His obsidian eyes held a deep, mysterious glow, fixed on her with unwavering intensity.

His expression was calm, a subtle smile playing at the corner of his lips. He seemed aloof and distant, yet there was an alluring sense of restraint about him.

Mu Xing stared at the man who had suddenly appeared. Her mouth unconsciously chewed on her steamed bun, and after a moment she reacted, jumping back like a little rabbit, swallowing the bun in her mouth, and asking nervously, "Who are you"

The man remained silent, his gaze lingering on the “little mouse” before him.

A pink top paired with a pair of faded denim jeans, utterly simple.

Her hair was styled in two braids, her delicate and pretty face unadorned with makeup, as white and clean as a porcelain doll. Her nose was aquiline and her lips were rosy and plump.

Under the moonlight, those big eyes that looked at him were clear and bright, like a few stars rippling in a spring.

Looking no more than seventeen or eighteen, quite immature, yet possessing remarkable courage to venture here alone.

He quietly withdrew his gaze, his voice soft: "Don't be nervous, I came here for the same reason as you."

Mu Xing let out a sigh of relief. She thought she'd been discovered.

"You're here looking for something too, aren't you"

Mu Xing felt a sense of kinship when she saw "like-minded person," and bounced a few steps back to the man.

The man was very tall with long legs. He also had a faint scent of agarwood sandalwood, which smelled particularly good.

Mu Xing looked up at him, her voice soft and sweet: "Did you find your things"

When speaking, her eyes sparkled.

Why do people who look at it can't help but want to bully

Fu Lingxiao lowered his gaze and looked at her, "Not yet."

"Then let's go find him."

Mu Xing was about to run upstairs, just as she took a step, a low and magnetic voice came from behind her: "No need to bother, there's no one inside."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man walked towards the villa gate. Mu Xing hesitated for a moment before following him.

A luxurious and intricate chandelier lit up, illuminating the entire living room. The villa was large and imposing. Mu Xing swept her gaze around, finding it empty with no one in sight.

But in the evening, she clearly saw a car drive in. How strange.

However, she didn't know that the maid was cooperatingly sleeping in the room. As for the bodyguards, they were currently hiding on the rooftop, watching the stars and the moon, about to talk from poetry and song to philosophy of life.

Fu Lingxiao put one hand in his trouser pocket, and said lightly, "You can take your time looking."

His expression was calm, not the slightest bit of nervousness like a guilty person. If Mu Xing didn't know he was also here to look for something, she would have thought this was his home.

"Do you know where the study is"

Mu Xing asked, according to the clues, she could be sure that her master hid things in the study.

Fu Lingxiao's eyes darkened suddenly, "Upstairs."

Okay! Thank you.

Mu Xing rushed upstairs eagerly, her speed was fast but her footsteps were almost inaudible.

Fu Lingxiao followed at a leisurely pace, watching the petite figure in front of him, his thin lips pressed into a tight line.

The study was filled with many files, even some of the company's confidential information...

In her mind, Mu Xing who was walking in front seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly stopped, turned back, and Fu Lingxiao also stopped. One tall, one short, they stood on different steps, rarely having their eyes level.

She tilted her head, staring intently at the man. "Why are you so familiar with this place"

Fu Lingxiao's face was calm, his tone light. "I've been here once."

"Oh."

I see, that makes sense.

Mu Xing put away her vigilance, smiled sweetly, and continued to run upwards.

Fu Lingxiao lowered his eyes and chuckled lightly, "You're so naive."

The furnishings in the study were simple: a desk, a leather armchair, a bookshelf along one wall, and a large wine cabinet.

Mu Xing went in and quickly scanned the area, rolled up her sleeves and started looking.

Various items and books were thrown haphazardly on the ground, and within a few minutes, the neat and tidy study had become a complete mess.

Outside the study, the man's eyes flickered with uncertainty.

I thought this little girl was here to steal trade secrets, but she doesn't seem interested in those documents. Then what is she looking for

He frowned slightly, then after a moment, tentatively asked, "Those files from earlier, they could be worth a lot of money if sold."

Who knew the little girl didn't react at all.

Fu Lingxiao patiently continued to observe.

After another ten or so minutes, the little mouse who had been rummaging in the liquor cabinet suddenly burst into excited laughter. “Hahaha! I found it!”

Next, she took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet.

Just here to steal wine

Fu Lingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a light voice: "The most valuable one is in the middle of the top layer, and the one at the far left of the second layer tastes the best."

"You know so much!"

Mu Xing gazed adoringly at the man at the door, then quickly added, “But I’m not looking for wine.”ter day, this had become his habitual action.And now in Y country, it is afternoon, and the sunlight is scorching the eyes.He stared intently at the sky for a long time, then abruptly withdrew his gaz...
