After Ye Qianmo finished his breakfast and they lined up to send him away, the housekeeper began to arrange other tasks.

Ye Qianmo came back very late that night. The Ye family had a rule that he would not come back after ten o'clock, and all the servants could rest without waiting for him.

After disbanding at ten o'clock, Xia Youxin was punished and left alone in the hall, kneeling with a pure white rag to wipe the marble floor.

The housekeeper said, wipe until there is no trace of dust on the white rag.

She didn't know how long she had been rubbing it, but she heard footsteps approaching her, a very steady pace.

She knew he was coming, but she didn't want to offend him and didn't dare to offend him, so she pretended not to know he was coming and continued to mop the floor seriously.

Ye Qianmo squatted down in front of her, his tall shadow completely covering her little one.

Damn woman! No woman has ever dared to turn a blind eye to him!

Ye Qianmo pinched her chin and forced her to raise her head. His scrutinizing gaze fell directly on her delicate little face.

There was a meaningful smile on his lips that made her hate him. He came close to her face, lightly opened his thin lips, and said calmly: "How is it? Does this feel good?"

Xia Youxin really didn't want to pay attention to him, but she couldn't.

She took a deep breath and looked at him with an extremely candid expression: "Mr. Ye, this feeling is very bad. But I need this job and I need money. I really didn't want to seduce you.

I think you know. I just want to be a maid peacefully and do my job well."

Ye Qianmo looked at her with a half-smile, and every subtle change on her face could not escape his eyes. Especially when she said she needed money, there was a flash of hesitation in her eyes, indicating that she was lying to him.

"Need money?" He seemed thoughtful.

"I need it, so please..." She suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence. It turned out that his hand holding her chin had loosened his grip, and his fingertips suddenly pressed on her lips.

The slightly cool touch made Xia Youxin tense up unconsciously.

He was still looking at her, and a cluster of fire danced in her clear eyes, which she couldn't hide even if she tried her best to suppress it.

"With your beauty, if you need money, it's easy to solve it, isn't it?"

As he said these words, his fingertips tightened, and his lips tingled slightly.

Xia Youxin understood the meaning of his words. She suppressed her anger, lowered her eyes, and said softly: "I just want to earn what I want through my own efforts."

Ye Qianmo moved closer to her, with an evil expression: "How do you know you don't need to work hard to serve a man?"

Xia Youxin's face suddenly turned red with shame and anger, and the man's strong breath lingered on her face. She was so frightened that she wanted to drop the rag and run away, but she was afraid that the more panicked she became, the more fun he would find teasing her.

I only heard him say slowly: "Didn't the housekeeper tell you that starting tonight, someone will take turns working the night shift in my bedroom? It's you who will be on duty today."

After saying that, he didn't care about Xia Youxin's reaction, so he stood up and left.

Xia Youxin took a long time to turn around. Seeing his back getting further and further away, she quickly got up and ran to chase him. While running, she said eagerly: "Mr. Ye, please wait a moment."

He stopped suddenly, and she almost bumped into his back. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and ran in front of him in two steps.

He didn't speak, just looked at her expressionlessly, listening to what she had to say.

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry, but the housekeeper didn't tell me about the night shift tonight."

According to the housekeeper's cautious behavior, which always regarded his words as imperial edicts, it was impossible for the housekeeper to forget that he had told her about the night shift. The person named Ye must have made such a statement on the spur of the moment and deliberately made things difficult for her.

He asked her indifferently: "Are you questioning me?"

"I……"

"You should know that this is the butler's territory and mine. If you want to leave, you don't have to do as I say."

What he said was very harsh and there was absolutely no room for negotiation.

Xia Youxin bit her lip and lowered her voice a little, "I will do as you ask."
