The butler felt slightly embarrassed and couldn’t help saying, “Sir, didn’t you send a letter not long ago to several family heads stating, ‘Everyone should sweep the snow from their own doorstep’?”

“How am I supposed to prepare for the clan summit looking like this? Just arrange it the way my dad used to when he hosted it.”

Tang Ke swore under his breath, how was he to know that a crazy woman would appear out of nowhere, daring to whip him with a riding crop dozens of times? And she did so with such an air of impunity.

Thinking of that woman, Tang Ke’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he asked the butler, “What’s the real story with the mansion in Sky City? Isn’t it a family heirloom left by my father?”

The butler shook his head, equally mystified, “This humble servant isn’t very clear about it either, just knowing that the former family head managed that mansion while he was alive, but he never had the intention of moving in.”

If it wasn’t their house, what was his dad doing managing it? Moreover, the annual maintenance costs were exorbitantly high. Was his dad a philanthropist, spending a fortune to manage someone else’s house? What a joke.

But deep down, Tang Ke sensed something was amiss.

“Help me to the study.”

Butler: “…” You really look like you’re fine.

The butler couldn’t help thinking Tang Ke was quite the actor.

After being helped over, Tang Ke rummaged through his father’s documents in the study. Apart from the company’s confidential files, and property deeds for businesses everywhere, there were no extra bits of information.

Was he overthinking it…?

Or were there secrets that his father had not left any information about, passed only by word of mouth?

Tang Ke himself couldn’t figure it out.

Thinking of that woman, Tang Ke tugged at the corner of his mouth, and just the tug made his body spasm in pain, a flash of ruthlessness swept through his eyes, “I’ll let these people know, who truly rules the skies of the Imperial Capital!”

Butler: “…”

You’ve recently been causing enough trouble with the Liu Family, and now you want to go after others?

Could you please calm down a bit? The former family head wasn’t nearly as troublesome as you are.

Following Bai Chuwei’s instructions, the butler arranged the rooms with the best view for Duan Xingye and the others and prepared a long table of delicacies to welcome Bai Chuwei’s return.

Cao Yushu, as the son of a renowned chef, lacked cooking skills but possessed a strong ability to appreciate food. With every dish he tasted, he nodded continuously, “This is well made, on par with my dad’s skill! This tastes good too… Su Ruan, Xingye, you guys should eat more.”

Bai Chuwei wasn’t too particular about food, she ate a few bites carelessly, then lifting her gaze to the butler, she asked casually, “Has that person come back before?”

The butler was stunned for a moment before he quickly understood, “Miss, are you referring to Mr. Wei?”

Upon hearing this, Duan Xingye immediately pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.

The butler recalled for a moment and then smiled, “Mr. Wei did come back once about seven or eight years ago, and then never again.”

“Is that so?” Bai Chuwei’s tone was indifferent.

Her pet fox had been missing for over twenty years.

In this world, she was always alone; whether it was people or pets, they all had lifespans and couldn’t live as long as she did, ageless with the heavens and the earth.

Duan Xingye sensed alarm bells; this was not a good sign.

Duan Xingye sneakily took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to his great uncle.

[Xingye Liaoyuan: Great Uncle, you might as well give up on Little Fairy, I’ve discovered she’s been missing a guy for seven or eight years. You have no chance of winning.]

[Duan Feihan: I’ll freeze your bank account right now, believe it or not?]

Upon seeing this response, Duan Xingye immediately retracted his previous message and quickly added another one.

[Xingye Liaoyuan: Go for it, Great Uncle, you can do it.]

Heh, it seems she has more than one unattainable love in her heart.
