Biyan had just come home, and the first thing that she saw was the empty condition of the house. She was surprised and then looked around the other room and found it was empty. "Where's mom? Where's all the stuff?" Bill's cell phone rings. Her mother called from the other side.
"Mother? Where are you?" Biyan asked worriedly.
"Mom sent the address, you came there! We'll talk later, now mom still has worked."
Call ends.
Biyan immediately rushed to the address her mother gave him.
The two people helped Biyan's mother pack up. Biyan's mother is truly grateful for the kindness of the young master and the great master with whom she is working now.
Biyan saw the magnificent wall. So big and luxurious that the ends were invisible. The iron gate in front of her was still tightly closed.
Knock!
Knock!
Knock!
Biyan knocked on the glass door which was only the size of a person's face, then someone asked from inside.
"Can I help you?" asked the officer kindly.
"I'd like to meet Elis. The maid of this house." Saying what the housemaid said made Biyan feel broken, cause her mother had to be someone else's servant.
"Wait a moment."
It didn't take long for the small door on the side to open.
"Biyan." Her mother called.
"Mother." Biyan jogged to meet her mother.
"What happened?" asked Biyan.
"The house will be used by the brother of the owner of the house, so we were asked to move."
For a moment Biyan was silent. Just like her mother thought, where did the money to pay the rent for the first house come from?
"I will look for a new rental house." Biyan was about to leave, Elis grabbed her elbow.
"Mom's been finding us a new home for a while."
"Where?" asked Biyan.
Elis pointed at the magnificent house. "Wear neat and clean clothes, respect everyone here"
Elis brought Biyan in, she had just opened the back door which was directly connected to the kitchen.
The kitchen alone has taken Biyan by surprise. Because the kitchen is super luxurious with all modern furniture and an expencive interior decorated with crystal chandeliers.
Biyan continued to walk through the kitchen, peeking a little into the dining room with a long dining table and chairs lined up. Like a restaurant. A wide glass door separates the dining room from the living room.
In the living room, Biyan saw an elegant woman sitting and being served, in her hand was a slender glass, probably filled with wine.
"If there's anything you can do, or see a dirty glass or plate as you pass by.
Bian nodded, the room that her mother prepared for them was tidy and all the things neatly arranged.
"There are two young masters here, the big madam and the big master." Biyan's mother whispered slightly, approaching her daughter. "Don't ask about this family, the two young masters are different mothers."
Biyan saw her mother in disbelief. "So the first child from the first wife and the second from the second wife?"
"No. The big master married the second wife pregnant, but that is a family secret. No one knows whose blood is in the second child. I heard that, that's why this family doesn't talk to each other."
Biyan nodded and sat in the room while her mother returned to work.

Regina returned the cleaning equipment to the cupboard next to the entrance. She looked around, the living room was relieved. There is only a black sofa opposite the television.
The rooms are quite spacious with windows directly facing the sunrise. Regina really liked that. After washing her hands, Regina headed for the door while smoothing her hair to retrieve her items which were delivered separately downstairs. However, a knocking sound from outside was heard first.
Regina frowned. Who comes at night to visit?
Regina opened the door, she saw that there was a box of hers that she wanted to take right in front of the door. It was in the hands of a man who looked at him blankly and expressionlessly.
Apparently, the broad shoulders are more attractive when viewed from the front. Also, a pair of cool but cold eyes staring at her now.
Regina cleared her throat. "I-I just wanted to take it," Regina said. "But-"
Regina's sentence was cut short because the cardboard was given into her arms just like that.
Riyu's gaze was silent in Regina's eyes.
Before Regina had time to thank her, Riyu had already left for the door next to her. Regina stepped outside and said, "thank you."
Whether his voice is heard or not because Riyu's door is closed. The drunken woman was right if Riyu was like a big chunk of ice.
Regina looked at the cardboard in her hand. "How did he know this is mine?"
Regina went back into her apartment. Put the box on the sofa and decided to take it apart tomorrow. She took a cup to make hot tea. The weather outside is getting colder.
While she was busy with the hot water pot, a voice stopped Regina from moving. Her body stiffened, she wanted to confirm once again whether the voice was real.
Then the voice came back. Coming from the cupboard under the dishwasher. The items inside rub against each other. Makes the noise get louder and louder.
Regina immediately ran into the living room.
If she was at her mother's house now, someone else would come to take care of the voice. But she is alone! Regina's hands gripped the edge of the sofa. She had just made up his mind about being independent and wasn't afraid of noises at night.
Wanting to prove that she could live alone was the reason Regina stepped into the kitchen again. Her breath caught as she approached the cupboard. Gather the courage to open it with your fingertips.
But the moment the voice sounded again, Regina's defenses were crushed with a scream. She ran outside. didn't know what to do, but all she did was bang on the door next to her apartment.
"Cassandra... Sandra..." Regina was sweating in fear. "I need your help."
The door opened, not Cassandra but Riyu. "Sorry I didn't mean to bother you guys. May I see Cassandra?"
Riyu was silent listening to Regina's frightened squawk. Instead, he relaxed by leaning his shoulder against the door.
"I have a little problem. There's something in my kitchen cupboard. I think it's a rat."
"Sorry, I bothered you guys." Connect again. "But it really is an emergency" she imagined if the rat wandered around in her when she sleep and might crawl over her legs. Regina was amused just imagining that.
Riyu closed the door with herself already outside. He headed for Regina's apartment door.
