Chapter 512

"Don't drink, wait for me to come back!"

Ling Xi's instruction again made Zhao Wan'er vaguely guess what, and put down the spoon with a pale face.

Ling Xi walked out of Zhao Wan'er's room and looked around, but the maid who delivered the chicken soup was no longer there.

Ling Xi's brows were tightly knit together, and without hesitation, she walked straight towards the kitchen.

Ling Xi is now very thankful that Zhao Wan'er took her around the villa yesterday, otherwise she really didn't know how to get to the kitchen.

Turning left and right, walked a few corridors, and came outside the kitchen.

Ling Xi is a guest of the No. [-] villa in the world, and also a family member of the future son-in-law. Everyone in the villa already knows her identity.

"Madam Ye, why are you in the kitchen?"

When the kitchen steward saw Ling Xi walk into the kitchen, he immediately put down his work and came out to greet her.

"I want to ask, did the master order the kitchen to deliver chicken soup to the lady?"

After Ling Xi finished speaking, she looked around the kitchen. Everyone was busy preparing lunch. Ling Xi took a look, but didn't find the maid who brought the chicken soup.

"No? Miss has always disliked chicken soup. Master knows it, and he never ordered Miss to deliver chicken soup before meals?"

The manager also had a puzzled look on his face, and at the same time, he was thinking that it was the one who didn't know the rules who brought the chicken soup to the lady.

Ling Xi's heart skipped a beat, she really guessed right.

"Boss, whose dog is that outside?"

Ling Xi asked again, and although the person in charge couldn't figure it out, she replied immediately.

"That's the dog guarding the backyard. The rope broke and he came here looking for food."

"Help me tie it up and let someone lead it to Miss's yard. By the way, keep quiet and be careful not to be seen when you come."

Ling Xi gave an order, and then stepped out of the kitchen. There was something wrong with the chicken soup. She was worried that Zhao Wan'er would drink it, and at the same time, she was also worried about the purpose of that maid.

Returning from the kitchen to Zhao Wan'er's yard, Ling Xi had been thinking about this all the time, and her heart was tightly twisted together.

"Ling Xi, where have you been? What's going on? You're almost worried about me!"

At the gate of the courtyard, as soon as Zhao Wan'er saw Ling Xi coming back, she greeted her anxiously.

Ever since Ling Xi left, she had been sitting at the door anxiously waiting. She didn't know what happened, so she could only nervously wait for Ling Xi to come back.

"Go in and talk."

Ling Xi looked around again, but she didn't see the maid, and then she opened her arms around Zhao Wan'er and spoke.

When the two entered the room, Ling Xi glanced at the untouched chicken soup on the table and breathed a sigh of relief.

"There might be something wrong with the chicken soup, and that maid probably has something wrong too."

After Ling Xi finished speaking, Zhao Wan'er spoke immediately.

"When you told me not to drink chicken soup, I remembered that my father never sent food to my yard before meals, and I don't like chicken soup either."

Ling Xi left in a hurry just now, and she didn't have a chance to speak, but she also thought that there was something wrong with the chicken soup, so she didn't touch the chicken soup at all.

Both of them frowned tightly. At this moment, a dog barked outside the yard, followed by the steward's voice.

"Miss, Mrs. Ye, the dog is here."

Following the manager's words, the dog barked twice more, and Zhao Wan'er looked at Ling Xi suspiciously.

"What are you doing with the dog?"

Ling Xi didn't speak, picked up the steaming chicken soup on the table and walked outside.
