Jing Ze hesitated for a moment. “Alright, I’ll agree to it since you’re pretty!”

The two of them did a pinky promise.

Lin Xingyun heaved a sigh of relief. “Little wimp” was really not easy to deal with.

“But what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Are you a thief?” Jing Ze crossed his arms and looked like he was examining her.

“I… I’m lost! I’m new here, and this place is too big, so I’m confused.”

Lin Xingyun hurriedly explained. Although the man in front of her only had the intelligence of a five-year-old, it was not good to ignore him.

“Alright, I’ll believe you this time since you’re so pretty. Let’s go, I’ll take you back to my room.”

“Thank you, Young Master Jing. You’re my savior!”

Jing Ze brought Lin Xingyun to the duty room, which was specially for those who needed to be on duty at night.

They could not leave the main building before eight o’clock, so they could only stay in the duty room.

At night, Lin Xingyun checked her phone’s email. She received a reply from the organization that she was the only one who was sent to participate in this mission. There was no one else.

Lin Xingyun was a little confused. Who was the man that night?

The next morning, Lin Xingyun was woken up early and all the servants rushed to the hall to gather around.

Zheng Xiu stood at the very front, holding a red string in her hand.

Lin Xingyun took a closer look. That was her red string, was it not?

She subconsciously looked at her wrist. When did her red string disappear?

She suddenly remembered that she had forgotten when she was entangled with that man that night!

“Whose red string is this? Hurry up and come out to claim it, don’t let me find you! If you take the initiative to claim it, you might be treated leniently, but if I find out, things won’t be so simple!”

Zheng Xiu was in front. The people below looked at each other and shook their heads.

Lin Xingyun gritted her teeth as she looked at her red string. Zheng Xiu was very smart, she did not explain what crime she had committed.

“Let me tell you, there are surveillance cameras all over the Jing family. I will check the surveillance cameras and find out who you are. Don’t be so ungrateful!”

Zheng Xiu roared again.

Lin Xingyun felt as if her heart was about to jump into her throat.

That red string was the love token Shi Xiang had given her.

During the Olympics that year, Shi Xiang promised her that they would officially start dating after she won the gold medal.

She and Shi Xiang had been training in the same team since they were little. He was one year older than her and joined the team one year earlier than her. He was like her senior.

However, during the Olympics that year, she got pregnant for no reason. After she gave birth, she found out that Shi Xiang had won two gold medals at the Olympics that year. He became famous overnight. Due to his handsome looks, he received a lot of attention and became a well-known sports star.

She had to get that red string back.

Lin Xingyun was thinking about other things. Zheng Xiu suddenly called out her name, “Lin Xingyun!”

Lin Xingyun was so shocked that she shuddered. “Yes, I’m here!”

Her heart was beating very fast. Could it be that Zheng Xiu knew that the red string was hers?

“Come with me for a moment. Alright, dismissed.”

Lin Xingyun bit her lips and carefully followed behind Zheng Xiu. She looked at the red string in Zheng Xiu’s hand.

Zheng Xiu could not have known it was hers, right?
