Withered Broken Ice Blue
Chapter 14: Drinking Secretly
After five years, I returned to my long-awaited home and it felt a bit strange.
When Chi Feiwan got off the car, no one came out to greet her. The servants of the Chi family didn't even call her "Miss" when they saw her.
It seemed as if Chi Feiwan had forgotten about leaving the Chi family long ago.
Chi Feiwan was not annoyed. She had accepted the indifference of the Shen family, so couldn't she accept the indifference of her family members?
To reach Chi Feiwan's room, one needs to pass through Mr. Chi's study.
The study door was not locked, and the quarrel inside could be heard from far away.
Old Master Chi slammed the book to the ground and said, "Chi Jinshu! I'll give you two choices. Either go abroad, or go abroad to find your eldest brother and work under him for a few years."
Chi Jinshu lazily sat on the single sofa, his eyebrows and eyes stained with a cynical smile, "I still have to go abroad."
"Grandpa, I still say the same thing, I won't go abroad."
Mr. Chi was furious, "You are really going to piss me off to death!"
After the high school entrance examination, Grandpa Chi wanted to send Chi Jinshu abroad, but Chi Jinshu failed the foreign entrance examination.
How could Chi Jinshu fail the exam? He just failed on purpose.
This way, I don't have to go abroad, and I can also make this old man angry at the same time.
Chi Jinshu asked: "Grandpa, I just don't understand why you have to send me abroad? I'm doing well in my studies in China. If you are so persistent in sending us to study abroad, why not just move the Chi family abroad?"
In the Chi family, only Chi Jinshu dared to speak to Old Man Chi in such a way.
"The Chi family has businesses abroad. After you finish your studies abroad, you can directly inherit the businesses there. How great is that." Old Master Chi originally thought that Chi Jinshu would be tempted by this.
But he still refused.
Before Mr. Chi got angry and smashed things in the study, Chi Jinshu quickly escaped from the study.
Naturally, this matter also reached Shen Linxi's ears. No one could persuade Chi Jinshu to go abroad, and Shen Linxi didn't want her children to leave her one by one.
This time she did not obey Mr. Chi, did not try to persuade him, and allowed Chi Jinshu to mess up the overseas examination.
Although he was reluctant to leave, when Chi Feiwan was sent to the capital to study, he did not even blink an eye.
It was late at night and the brightly lit Haicheng was now in a deep sleep.
Everyone in the Chi family fell asleep, except for a head that popped out from the half-open door.
A faint white light shone through the dark corridor.
Chi Feiwan looked around cautiously and gently pushed the door open.
With the dim light of the flashlight, Chi Feiwan tiptoed downstairs, afraid of making any noise.
Chi Feiwan placed the flashlight on the L-shaped marble countertop, with the light facing the refrigerator.
Chi Feiwan opened the refrigerator, and the light in the refrigerator turned on automatically, illuminating a corner of the kitchen.
Fortunately, the milk was not placed very high. Just as she was about to take it out, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "What are you doing?"
Chi Feiwan turned back subconsciously, and the chill from the refrigerator invaded her head.
It's cool.
"Third brother...I want to drink milk." Chi Feiwan pursed his lips.
Chi Yizi moved closer to the refrigerator step by step. His tall body cast a shadow, and the light source was completely blocked by him.
He looked up and took out the carton of milk from the second layer of the fresh-keeping compartment.
Chi Yizi took out the milk, put it on the L-shaped table, and looked at Chi Feiwan, "The milk you wanted."
Chi Feiwan was wearing a loose beige nightgown, covering her slender waist.
Chi Feiwan walked over, unscrewed the cap of the carton of milk, and took out a glass bottle from the cabinet below. She tilted the milk, and white liquid poured out from the bottle.
Chi Yizi looked at her operation and frowned: "What are you doing?"
"I want some hot milk."
"How can you sleep well drinking hot milk in the hot summer?"
The glass bottle was filled with white liquid. Chi Feiwan put down the carton of milk and closed the lid. "I can't sleep without milk."
Chi Feiwan didn’t have the habit of drinking milk before going to bed before, but he developed this habit after he came to Beijing at the age of seven.
She didn't even know how it was formed.
There is no way Chi Feiwan doesn't know the simplest and most basic life skill, which is to heat milk.
However, the third young master of the Chi family, who had never heated milk before, tried it for the first time.
Two minutes of heating time just makes the glass bottle less icy.
When Chi Yizi handed it to him, Chi Feiwan didn't know whether he should take it or not.
Chi Yizi looked at the milk that had not yet started to steam, "Isn't that right?"
Chi Feiwan waved his hands quickly, "No."
"Then why don't you drink?"
Chi Feiwan: "..."
Flattered.
Chi Yizi didn't treat her like this before.
Chi Feiwan couldn't find a suitable excuse, so he had to drink it.
On this day, it's just right to drink this glass of lukewarm milk.
Chi Feiwan raised her eyes inadvertently, and found Chi Yizi looking at her. She bit her lip and suppressed the doubts in her heart.
The milk was quickly finished, and just as Chi Yizi was about to leave, Chi Feiwan stopped him, "Third brother, can you please not tell mom about secretly drinking milk tonight?"
Chi Yizi glanced at her and said, "All the ingredients in the refrigerator are strictly controlled by the servants. There is less milk than yesterday. How could they hide it?"
"Besides, sister, your last name is Chi, so what if you drank secretly?"
Yes, her last name is Chi, but that doesn’t mean she is fine.
If the person who drank secretly was Chi Yizi, Chi Jinshu, Shen Linxi would not pursue her, but it must not be Chi Feiwan.
Before returning to Haicheng, Shen Linxi warned Chi Feiwan not to sneak into the kitchen to eat in the middle of the night.
Before going to bed, Chi Feiwan told the servant at home to heat a cup of milk for her, but until the lights were turned off at the Chi family, there was no trace of milk.
Only then did she risk drinking secretly.
Chi Yizi pointed at the camera above the kitchen and said, "Sister, you must know that there are cameras installed in every corner of the Chi family, and they are updated in real time and keep two hours of records."
What she meant was that she simply wanted to tell Chi Feiwan that she couldn't hide it anymore.
Chi Feiwan remembers that she left Haicheng at the age of seven and there were no surveillance cameras installed in her home.
I heard that it was to prevent servants from stealing things, and only Chi Feiwan knew the truth.
To guard against her.
The servants in the Chi family all have five-digit salaries, and they receive year-end bonuses at the end of the year. They are also given red envelopes during every festival, and the treatment is very good. There is no such thing as stealing at all.
*
Something big happened in the Chi family this morning.
Everyone was called to the front hall.
Chi Feiwan was forcibly awakened by Shen Linxi, and when he went downstairs, he saw the furious face of old man Chi.
She was shocked. Could it be that she was caught drinking secretly?
Aunt Wang was seen standing there at a loss, facing the majestic grandfather sitting on the sofa.
"what happened?"
Everyone was attracted by Chi Feiwan's voice.
Uncle Li bent down and whispered to Chi Feiwan the whole story.
It turned out that grandpa’s beloved jade was stolen.
He suspected that the servant in the house had stolen it.
That jade is just green jade, which is priceless to ordinary people, but to a wealthy family like the Chi family, green jade is just one flower among thousands of flowers.
In the past, my grandfather didn’t get angry when he lost the purple jadeite, let alone the green jadeite.
Chi Feiwan was a little confused.
As soon as she arrived, everyone's eyes fell on her.
An ominous premonition suddenly arose.
"Kneel down." Old Master Chi slammed his cane heavily on the ground.
