Walking to the villa gate, the driver rang the doorbell.
After tens of seconds, an electronic door opened from within, and a middle-aged man dressed in a neat suit and looking like a butler appeared in front of Chi Jiao.
“Butler Zhou, I have brought back Second Miss,” the driver said with a smile.
Butler Zhou nodded indifferently. Then, his sharp and meticulous gaze landed on Chi Jiao.
The young woman was wearing a white sweater, a black-and-white plaid skirt, and light brown deer skin boots. He looked slender and weak, like a child that could be bullied by anyone at will.
He lowered his head as if he looked very low.
Butler Zhou retracted his gaze as his lips curved into a mocking grin.
She was a girl who grew up in the mountains. He did not even dare to raise his head to look at people, and he even looked petty.
Chi Jiao did not know that Butler Zhou had measured him from head to toe as she thought of her own matters.
In his previous life, the first time he met Quan Jue was the first day he returned to the Chi family.
Quan Jue was the illegitimate son of the Quan family. For some special reason, he had moved to the Chi family three years ago and was nominally his father's adopted son.
The reason why he planned to return early was to see Quan Jue early.
He wondered if he would be able to see her later.
“Second Miss, stop standing in front of door. Quickly log in.” Butler Zhou took the luggage from the driver.
Only when Butler Zhou's voice sounded from above his head did Chi Jiao pull herself out of his mind.
The structure of the villa is very special. From the entrance to the living room, they had to pass through a long corridor.
There were more than ten ink paintings and paintings hanging on the walls of the corridor. From his style, the paintings seemed to be done by the same person.
Chi Jiao curled her lips lightly.
Realizing that the young lady's gaze was constantly fixed on the paintings, a look of disdain flashed across Butler Zhou's face.
“These paintings are the work of the Young Master. Young Master has been very talented at painting since he was young. She was only eight years old when she won the grand prize in the children's category at the AC.” Ink Painting Competition Butler Zhou's tone was practically filled with pride as he said this.
The AC Ink Painting Competition is an art competition that only started five years ago. It was founded by the world-famous mysterious painter, AN. Anyone who can stand out in this competition has the opportunity to enter the AC art studio and get personal guidance from AN.
“Is that so? It was very impressive,” Chi Jiao said indifferently. His facial expression did not change in the slightest as it remained peaceful and calm.
Butler Zhou wanted to say something when he saw the young lady's indifferent reaction.
But on second thought…
This girl grew up in the mountains and forests. How could a village girl like her understand such an elegant art?
Isn't it like he's going to play piano for a cow when talking to her about art?
Therefore, Butler Zhou was silent.
As they walked through the long entrance to the living room, they were met with a wide view.
A group of people sat down and chatted in the living room. The atmosphere was harmonious, and they did not even realize that someone had entered the living room.
Chi Jiao's eyes quickly observed the group of people sitting on the sofa. They were his father, stepmother, half-sister, and half-sister, who had no blood relation to him.
But there was still no Quan Jue.
Chi Jiao pouted her lips sadly.
Butler Zhou first introduced the people sitting on the sofa to Chi Jiao in a soft voice. Logically speaking, other than his father, Chi Mingwei, Chi Jiao had not met the rest of the group until she returned to the Chi family.
