The female supporting role in the book: I feel cool and cool away from the male and female protagoni

Half an hour later, Li Li finished his tea and made a phone call.

From the phone call, Mu Sheng also heard that the owner of the manor was not in Qingyuan City recently, only the owner's daughter was there.

"That's such a pity. I was thinking that I could meet you now that I'm at your doorstep." The owner of the manor said regretfully as soon as Li Li finished speaking.

"It's a pity indeed. Next time you come, I will definitely treat you well. How many days do you and your friends plan to stay on the island?"

Li Li smiled and replied, "I'll just stay for two or three days. I probably won't be able to wait for you to come back. I'll visit you next time."

After hearing this, the owner of the manor learned that Li Li had just arrived and had not yet checked in, so he warmly invited him and his friends to live in the manor.

"How can I do that?" Li Li pretended to refuse.

"Nothing, it's settled. The manor has rooms for guests. You can take your friends on a leisurely stroll around the island. I'll definitely accompany you personally next time."

When Li Li hung up the phone, Mu Sheng gave Li Li a thumbs up.

"Brother Li Li is amazing. He got it done in just a few words."

Li Li was humble: "Nothing, actually the owner of the manor likes to invite friends to his manor."

After the matter was settled, the three of them went straight to the manor after lunch.

When they arrived, someone was already waiting at the entrance of the manor. When he saw Mu Sheng and the other two, he took them directly into the manor.

A car was parked not far from the manor. The driver was standing next to the car. Seeing Li Li and the other two, he smiled and put their belongings into the trunk. "Mr. Li, the boss has already told us everything, and the room has been cleaned up. You and your friends can stay at the manor for as long as you want."

After hearing this, Li Li smiled and exchanged a few words with the other party, expressing his gratitude to the owner of the manor and his apology for disturbing him, then got in the car and went to his residence.

"This is the guest room of the manor. The one in front is where the boss and Miss Dong live."

After hearing the housekeeper's introduction, Mu Sheng knew that the Miss Dong the other party was talking about was the owner of the manor.

"Butler, has anyone else moved into the manor recently?" Mu Sheng asked tentatively.

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment before calmly shaking his head: "No, the only guests who have stayed here recently are you three."

After the butler left, Mu Sheng said to the two people beside him: "The butler must have lied."

"Yeah! His expression was a little flustered when he left." Li Li added from the side.

Yan Xuting watched the butler leave, then turned to look at the two of them: "The house in front is not far from here, but it's easy to tell from the butler's tone that that's the master's residence, so it's not convenient for us to go over and disturb him."

Mu Sheng thought for a moment and said, "It's inconvenient for you, but I'm a girl, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to go there."

Yan Xuting knew that Mu Sheng was a little worried about the safety of Xia Wan and the others, so he let Mu Sheng do whatever he wanted.

Mu Sheng went out in the afternoon, bought some things, and found the housekeeper when he came back.

"Butler, Mr. Dong is not here. My friend and I are sorry for disturbing you so much. We wanted to visit Miss Dong."

As soon as the words fell, the housekeeper smiled perfunctorily: "The young lady doesn't like to meet strangers. I accept the young lady's kindness on her behalf."

After saying this, he didn't even look at what was in Mu Sheng's hand. Seeing the butler's direct refusal, Mu Sheng could only think of another way.

When she returned, only Li Li was there. Mu Sheng looked around but did not see Yan Xuting.

Li Li looked around when Mu Sheng came in, then said to her with a smile, "Are you looking for Yan Xuting?"

Mu Sheng shook his head and sat down on the sofa weakly.

Seeing that Mu Sheng was silent, Li Li explained, "Yan Xuting went out after talking to the police. He said there was no need to wait for him for dinner."

Halfway through his words, Li Li suddenly remembered that Mu Sheng had been out for a long time and asked her where she had been.

Mu Sheng recounted how he wanted to visit the daughter of the manor owner but was rejected by the housekeeper.

After hearing this, Li Li sat up straight and said to Mu Sheng, "I heard that Boss Dong's daughter is lively and active. I haven't heard that she's afraid of strangers, right?"

"I guess he doesn't want to see us! That means he might be in the house in front!" Mu Sheng looked at Li Li.

At this time, the housekeeper came over with a little girl and a woman.

Mu Sheng and the other person stopped talking and their eyes fell on the three people who came.

"This is Aunt Wang who cooks and Xiaohe who cleans. If you have any questions, you can find Xiaohe and them." After giving the instructions and leaving the two behind, the housekeeper left.

"Boss Li, you are my honored guests. If you have anything you like to eat, just tell me directly. Aunt Wang promises to make it beautifully."

"Yeah! Me too," a young girl on the other side replied timidly.

Mu Sheng looked at Aunt Wang and quickly and enthusiastically asked the two to sit down.

"Aunt Wang, how long have you been working in this manor?" Mu Sheng chatted casually.

"I have been working in the manor since I was young, which means I have been here for quite some time. This girl has been here for a shorter time, only three years." After Aunt Wang finished speaking, she did not forget to reply for the little girl next to her.

"Yeah!" Xiao He beside her nodded.

Seeing this, Mu Sheng continued, "It's been so long! Then you're considered an old hand here. Do you usually cook for Mr. and Ms. Dong?"

"Of course, but there are other chefs in the manor. If there are guests coming to the manor, I will sometimes send them to the guest side to take charge of their meals like I am doing now." Aunt Wang spoke a little louder after hearing this.

"What about Xiaohe?" Mu Sheng asked casually.

Xiao He lowered her head. Aunt Wang quickly spoke up, "Xiao He is quiet and doesn't like to talk. She just cleans and sometimes helps me out. That's her downside. She's easily bullied by others."

Xiao He quietly tugged at Aunt Wang's sleeve, as if realizing she had said something wrong. Aunt Wang immediately said to Mu Sheng and the others, "Look at me, I talk fast, but no one bullies me. We just bicker a lot. Girls are like that."

Mu Sheng smiled and then began to flatter Aunt Wang's cooking skills: "Aunt Wang's cooking must be delicious, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed at the manor for so long. Do Boss Dong and Miss Dong particularly like Aunt Wang's cooking?"

"I'm not exaggerating. Boss Dong and Miss Dong really like the food I cook. On weekdays, Boss Dong and Miss Dong always eat an extra bowl."

"In the past few days, the young lady has had a good appetite. She can even eat three bowls of rice after eating the meal I cooked!" Aunt Wang couldn't stop talking. She wished she could cook a table of food for Mu Sheng on the spot for her to taste.

It was Xiao He who reminded her: "Auntie Wang, the vegetables haven't been processed yet!"

Hearing this, Aunt Wang stopped talking: "Look at me, I almost forgot about the important things. Xiao He and I will go prepare the dishes for dinner first."

After talking to Mu Sheng for a few more words, Aunt Wang took Xiao He to the kitchen.

Only after Aunt Wang and the other person entered the kitchen did Mu Sheng lower the smile on his face and his eyes met Li Li's.

It seems that the person has stayed with Miss Dong, and both of them have this idea in their minds.

As expected, Yan Xuting did not come back for dinner.

It was not until midnight that Mu Sheng suddenly heard a sound coming from the door next to him. Although it was very small, Mu Sheng had not slept all day and was always paying attention to the movements in Yan Xuting's room.

So as soon as the sound came from the other side, she opened the door.

Their eyes met, and Yan Xuting, who had originally wanted to sneak out, froze in place. After a while, he pulled Mu Sheng back to her room and closed the door gently.

Mu Sheng raised his head and looked upwards.

Yan Xuting put his hands on the door, half-hugging Mu Sheng, but his body did not touch Mu Sheng at all.

Seeing her look up, he lowered his head and looked at the other person and explained in a low voice: "I'm going out for a while, you stay here and rest well."

"You said you would take me with you." Mu Sheng's voice was neither humble nor arrogant.
