She came home in high spirits and hadnt expected such an accident to happen.

The mere thought of it made Yu Baoers heart feel stuffed up.

She sent Huo Yingcheng several text messages to explain things, but he didnt reply to her.

Yu Baoer hid her head under her blanket, feeling especially vexed.

Now that she had calmed down, she could understand why Huo Yingcheng was angry at the time. But understanding didnt mean that she could tolerate suffering this grievance.

She carefully recalled when she was packing her luggage, she was the only one packing.

Usually, no one would enter her room. Surely someone didnt secretly place that lighter into her luggage?

That cant be right. She didnt offend anyone

Even if she had her suspicions, she didnt have any suspect in mind. It gave her anxiety.

It was impossible for a servant in the palace to do something like this, for there was no enmity between them. Moreover, it was stealing Huo Yingchengs lighter.

But no matter how she thought about it, she couldnt fathom who would do such a thing.

Because she had no idea how she would face tomorrow, Yu Baoer tossed and turned, and only fell asleep in the later part of the night.

Early the next morning, Yu Baoers father woke her up and told her that breakfast was ready. He also asked her if Huo Yingcheng, who was coming to collect the lighter from her, was here yet or not.

Yu Baoer still didnt know. She had just finished eating when she received Huo Yingchengs call.

His tone sounded much better than yesterday. He only coldly said this, Im outside your residential area. Just bring my lighter down to me.

Startled, Yu Baoer immediately set down her chopsticks and went back to her room to change her clothes, and then down with the lighter.

When she got downstairs, Yu Baoer indeed saw a tall and well-built figure outside her residential area.

Huo Yingcheng was too tall, and where she lived, such tall and muscular men were rarely seen. Wearing a long trench coat and smoking a cigarette while he stood there, he looked

A bit like a bad guy.

Many passers-by cautiously sized him up.

Until he saw Yu Baoer.

He extinguished his cigarette and tossed it into the trash can. Yu Baoer jogged towards him and handed the lighter over to him. Here, take it. Your lighter.

Huo Yingcheng looked at Yu Baoer with a somewhat grumpy look.

She was wearing a white knit shirt. As it was October, the weather had started to become chilly; her hair was draped over her shoulders, giving off the youthful vibe of a young lady. Underneath, she wore black leggings and slippers.

Perhaps in her hurry, one could see her panting rapidly.

Huo Yingcheng took the lighter from her, and after one glance, ascertained that it was his missing lighter.

Yu Baoer gave the lighter back to him, and her face fell. She then turned around to prepare to leave.

Hold it there.

Huo Yingcheng suddenly called out to her, startling Yu Baoer. She thought that he was going to seek trouble with her, so she flusteredly let out a low growl, What? Ive already returned it to you. Ive said it many times that I wasnt the one who took your lighter. What more do you want?

Unexpectedly, Huo Yingcheng said something surprising. I know youre not the one who took it.

After clarifying the matter yesterday, Huo Yingcheng nearly had an urge to beat someone up.

But he couldnt tell Yu Baoer yet.

Yu Baoer widened her eyes. Who was it? Hurry up and tell me. Im going to beat him to death! How can he make me suffer such a wrongful accusation!

Huo Yingcheng:

How could he tell her?
