Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Turbulent Undercurrents

Front gate!

She remembered the location he had mentioned on the phone, so after she arrived at the estate, she parked her car by the road at the front gate and then took out her mobile phone to dial the "spoiled heir’s" number.

"Hello, Third Young Master, I’ve arrived."

"Come in."

Huh?

Go in?

Ye Ning began to doubt her own ears, "Are you asking me to come in?"

Ou Mucen responded indifferently with a "Mhm" from the other end of the line, "I’ve already notified the security guard at the entrance, you can come straight in." After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for her response.

Left sitting in her car, Ye Ning stared at her phone in her hand, dumbfounded once again.

What on earth was he up to?

Did he not realize the situation she was in? Was he trying to play her to death by doing this? Was he still holding a grudge against her for quitting her job with him two days ago to work for another company?

As these thoughts crossed Ye Ning’s mind, she felt increasingly uncomfortable. Thinking about his ruthless mother and then herself, finally, she gritted her teeth, deciding to leave and not bother about it anymore.

However, just as she was about to leave, the carved gates suddenly opened, "Hey, are you the Third Young Master’s assistant? The Third Young Master has asked for you to come in!"

It turned out to be a security guard from the estate.

Upon seeing this, Ye Ning could only stop the car again, "Yes, that’s me."

"Well, you better hurry up. When Secretary Gao used to come, she would have been inside by now. Why are you dawdling?" The security guard said while urging her on.

Secretary Gao used to come and pick him up and had to go in as well?

Ye Ning was stunned for a moment and looked at the security guard...

"What are you still looking at? Aren’t you going in? How can a new assistant be so poor at their job?"

"Ah... okay, I’ll go in now!"

Ye Ning finally agreed and then drove the car into the parking lot, pulled out the keys, and got out of the car.

If Secretary Gao always did this when she came to pick him up, then apparently, this was something his secretary had to do when coming to fetch him; maybe he had something inside that he needed his secretary to bring out for him.

Or maybe, she was asked to come over today because his mother was not present, since the night before last, when she asked him not to let his mother find out about their mother-son relationship, he complied.

Thinking this way, Ye Ning felt somewhat less uncomfortable. She got out of the car and went straight over, "Sorry, I’m new here and not very familiar with things, thank you for your help."

The security guard looked at her with disdain, "You don’t need to tell me you’re new, if it were Secretary Gao, she’d have already gone in and fetched the Third Young Master by now."

Ye Ning quickly apologized with a smile, expressing her thanks, and then the guard reluctantly led her inside.

After leading her inside, the guard didn’t tell Ye Ning where to go and returned to his post.

So there Ye Ning stood, looking around the familiar courtyard, her gaze directed toward the four directions that were devoid of any human presence, and she walked straight toward Orchid Garden.

She had been to Orchid Garden before, and going there directly now, she believed he wouldn’t suspect anything.

But what she didn’t know was that as soon as she set foot on that path, the guard who had just led her in picked up his phone, "Third Young Master, the assistant has headed toward your garden."

His garden?

The person on the phone sounded displeased once he heard this, "Who told her to go to Orchid Garden? Tell her, I’m in Bamboo Garden!"

Bamboo Garden?

Wasn’t that where the old master and madam lived?

The guard understood and promptly nodded, "Alright, should I take her there?"

"No need, let her come by herself!"

Indeed, let her come by herself, because if she belonged to this estate, she would definitely be able to find it.
