Chapter 1052: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [54]
Xiao Yebai remained silent.
“Alright,” Chu Xiuhuang laughed, “Anyway, I’m busy with other things. Whether she’s with you now or not, I’ve left her in your hands, goodbye.”
After that, the call was disconnected.
Listening to the beeping sound on the other end, Xiao Yebai narrowed his eyes; his expression was inscrutable.
From the bridal shop to the Mo family’s ancestral home, it took about half an hour.
Due to the rain, the traffic was slow, and it was almost five in the afternoon when he reached the old house.
The sky was darkening, and the few old trees at the entrance swayed wildly in the cold wind, accompanied by the rain curtain, looking eerie and frightening.

At the entrance of the villa, Aunt Zhou was waiting with an umbrella.
Seeing Xiao Yebai walking in the rain, she hurried over with the umbrella, “Young Master Xiao, where is the princess? Why didn’t she come back with you?”
She noticed the bag in Xiao Yebai’s hand.
“Isn’t this the princess’s bag? Young Master Xiao, where is she now?”
After several questions, Xiao Yebai finally answered, “I don’t know.”
I don’t know?
Aunt Zhou hesitated to speak, “This morning when the princess left, she was wearing a very thin dress and didn’t take an umbrella. With such heavy rain, she will definitely catch a cold if she gets wet… Young Master Xiao.”
She finally said, “Could you please go and look for the princess again? She must be around the bridal shop by now. Her phone is off, and she didn’t take her bag; something might have happened to her, and the old master will surely lose his temper…”
“She won’t be in trouble,” Xiao Yebai suddenly interrupted, his voice so low as to be almost indifferent, “She’s already eighteen, an adult, not a child. She won’t be unable to find her way home.”
“But Young Master Xiao…”
Xiao Yebai stepped forward.
Aunt Zhou hurriedly followed with the umbrella.
The man’s face was tense, and he seemed to exude an aura of ‘keep out’ around him.
Aunt Zhou didn’t dare to speak anymore.
Upon entering the villa, Xiao Yebai went straight to his room without saying a word.
Aunt Zhou put away the umbrella, placed the handbag on the table, and quickly picked up the phone again to dial Mo Weiyi’s number.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off…”
Putting down the phone, Aunt Zhou looked at the heavy rain outside the window and then at the tightly closed room door, her brows tightly furrowed.

In the room, Xiao Yebai had changed out of his wet clothes after arriving.
What do you think?
