“Let’s talk in the study, shall we?” Chu Pengzhan said with a gesture, leading Lin Yi up to the second floor.
The study was at the very end of the hallway- most likely designed to be away from outward disturbances. Yet Lin Yi didn’t understand why they had to talk in the study- there wasn’t even a butler in a villa this big, what was the difference having the discussion in any other room?
This villa might have once been bursting with life and splendor, but what remained was a cold emptiness. Lin Yi observant as always as he made his way up the stairs- the villa was kept tidy and clean, but there were traces of wear on the staircase rails: the villa had been occupied for long periods of time before. Afer all, Chu Pengzhan wouldn’t have caused that wear, he was barely back here once a week.
Lin Yi, naturally, left Chu Pengzhan’s business alone- it didn’t involve him.
It was that mentality that resulted in Lin Yi’s composure, unaffected by any unexpectancy.
