It was very small and could only be seen clearly if one looked carefully.

There was a sharp surface on top, and that was the part that kept rubbing against the ground.

The colleague held the thing and looked around. Dong Xiyou was sitting opposite him and could see it.

It was shiny, bright, and a glistening garnet-red color. The colleague muttered to himself, “what is it? It can’t be a diamond…”

However, when he said that, Dong Xiyou’s mind lit up.

Before he could finish his sentence, the little thing in his hand was suddenly taken away. He looked up in shock at Dong Xiyou, who had unknowingly appeared in front of him.

“Is this yours?”

“Xiyou?”

Dong Xiyou couldn’t hear anything. She stared at the object.

It was a diamond, but of course, it was not a real diamond…

She quickly walked back to the diamond painting that she had hung on the wall and compared the diamond to the one that she had.

She quickly walked back to the diamond painting that she had hung on the wall and compared the diamond to the one that she had.

The color of the diamond matched perfectly.

The colleague also came over to take a look and understood what was going on. He scratched his head in amusement. “So it fell from your painting. I must have accidentally stepped on it. What a coincidence. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have found it anywhere else.”

However, Dong Xiyou remained silent.

Her constricted pupils would tremble from time to time.

She couldn’t have misheard. The sound of Zhou Zicheng’s shoes was exactly the same as this!

So the sound from Zhou Zicheng’s shoes must be…

She looked at the other empty space next to her. The diamond in that space had already fallen off when she was drilling in the rented apartment.

They clearly knew who the perpetrator was, but they could not find any evidence. They watched him in front of them every day.

However, if the diamond on Zhou Zicheng’s shoe was still there, it could prove that he had been to her place.

Evarxrthincr that  traru•

That would be the strongest evidence she could use against Zhou Zicheng! !

But the key was, would it still be there?

“zila–”

“zila–”

At this moment, Dong Xiyou heard the sound again!

However, as the diamond was lodged deep in the soles, the sound was softer and it was not easy to hear.

“Everyone, get ready for the meeting in the afternoon.” A man’s voice rang out in the office.

“Uh…another meeting…” The colleague beside Dong Xiyou complained softly.

The colleagues at the other desks also poked their heads out. “Zhou Qi, is this related to the promotion of the Qingqiu Tactics?”

“Master, what happened to Su Ji? I heard that they gave her a holiday? Why didn’t they ask us to do a follow-up?”

Everyone in the office looked over, including Dong Xiyou.

Zhou Zicheng stood not too close nor too far away from her with his hands behind his back and a friendly smile on his face.

However, in Dong Xiyou’s eyes, it was a completely different scene, making her shudder.

“Alright, don’t ask so many questions.” Zhou Zicheng’s gaze fell on Dong Xiyou. “Learn more from Xiyou. When have you ever heard her complain?”

Dong Xiyou smiled naturally as usual.

Zhou Zicheng walked past her and headed to his office.

“zila-

“zila–”

Dong Xiyou’s hands that were hanging by her sides closed into a fist.

At around 3 0’clock in the afternoon, Su Ji was eating sago dew dessert made by Aunt Gong in the living room.

She had just finished all three dishes at noon, and now she had a whole bowl of sweet soup.

It seemed that she was not just giving Pei Huai face. She did not know when it started, but her appetite had become better.

Her stomach wouldn’t feel uncomfortable even if she ate more, and her body could absorb the nutrients very well.

She pinched her cheeks. She seemed to have gained some weight and wasn’t as skinny as before.

She seemed to have become…even more like herself in her previous life…

Aunt Gong didn’t know why she pinched her face, but she felt that Ms. Su was interesting. Ever since Third Master got to know her, he had become more cheerful. Sometimes, he would even joke with the servants. Su Ji rubbed the flesh on her cheek and fell into deep thought.

When did this change begin?

If one really wanted to trace it back, it seemed to be after that ride. It was not obvious at first, but over the past few days, her appetite had recovered.

She had to admit that after that riding scene, she realized that her physical fitness was far inferior to her previous life, and she subconciously wanted to improve her physical fitness.

However, with her original body, even if she wanted to eat more, she would have indigestion or would not absorb it at all.

She still remembered that when she first came here, she attended Old Master Pei’s birthday banquet. She ate a plate of clams and some prawns. There was not much, but when she returned home, her stomach churned the entire night.

But recently, it hadn’t happened.

Su Ji looked at her wrist.

Oh right, her jade bracelet was broken.

However, the jade bracelet was protecting her, so it shouldn’t have the effect of suppressing her appetite.

Su Ji could not figure out the cause and effect of this for the time being, so she stopped thinking about it.

Aunt Gong even made half-cooked cheese. According to Third Master’s request, she made delicious food for Ms. Su every day.

But this time, just as Su Ji picked it up, the doorbell rang.

“Ms. Su, please sit down. I’ll go get it.” Aunt Gong wiped her hands on her apron.

Su Ji thanked her.

She removed the baking paper from the pastry. Just as she put the soft, half-cooked cheese into her mouth, the door opened.

Pei Huai was not done with work yet, so she thought it was Cao Zhuzhu.

But it wasn’t.

Aunt Gong stood at the door and looked at the woman who was a full head taller than her. She gulped and said, “M-Ms. Su, Madam Xu is here!”

After saying that, he moved aside.

Su Ji bit into the pastry.

She just said it this morning that her mother probably wouldn’t go to the Pei residence.

But now, she had come directly to them…

Moreover, from the looks of it, she should have gone to the Pei family first before coming over…

Xu Mingzhi’s high heels were loud and clear.

“Do I need to change my shoes?” Her tone was definitely not good, and her attitude was cold.

Aunt Gong’s mouth twitched and she shook her head hurriedly. “No need, no need. Madam, you can just come in!”

Xu Mingzhi entered the room and looked around the room like an empress dowager. She was holding a square box in her hand. She didn’t know what was inside, but it didn’t look like a weapon.

Xu Mingzhi finally turned her gaze back to her daughter.

Before she could say anything, Su Ji smiled obediently.

She pulled out the chair beside her and patted the non-existent dust off it. “Sit, mom. The cake that Aunt Gong baked is delicious.. Want some?”
