A group of people shifted their gaze away from Bai Jie, not showing much interest as no one could imagine someone hiding under the hem of her skirt.
Bai Jie's heart kept thumping furiously, as if it might fly right out of her throat, but fortunately, no one noticed.
That allowed Bai Jie—and of course Ye Chenfeng hidden under her skirt—to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Lord Izumi Taigan, Ye Chenfeng seems to have disappeared. How can he just vanish into thin air? Is he a ghost?" Izumi Taigan's subordinate couldn't help but say.
Izumi Taigan's face showed disbelief: "Impossible, how could he escape like a ghost?"
"Lord Izumi Taigan, we've searched everywhere we should have, but there's no sign of him!" the subordinates answered helplessly.
"How is that possible?"
Izumi Taigan looked incredulous, and his eyes swept through the corridor.
"Hmm? What's this?"
There lay a piece of chocolate, quiet and still in the hallway. Izumi Taigan walked over and picked it up.
