"I didn't burn down the house, so what am I afraid of?"
"Make way, the young master is coming!" the butler's voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone quickly cleared a path as Bei Jingtang strode in. Seeing Ye Anqi, he asked displeasedly, "What are you doing here?!"
Ye Anqi showed no fear, "Grilling beef."
"Who allowed you to grill here!"
"I live here alone, do I need to report everything I do?" Ye Anqi sneered, "Besides, there's no sign of life here. If I don't do something I enjoy, I'll go crazy sooner or later."
Bei Jingtang looked toward the two flowering crabapple trees in the yard.
The splendid trees had been axed by her to resemble a leper's balding head, with pieces missing here and there.
"Put out the fire!" Bei Jingtang ordered his men.
Ye Anqi hurriedly protested, "Don't, I'm about to finish grilling. Can you wait until I'm done before putting it out, please?"
"Do it!" Bei Jingtang showed no mercy.
