Listening to Maria, Xia Qingqian fell into contemplation. Leaning against the wall, she exuded a lazy aura, slightly frowning, and asked, "When will the Young Master return?"
"The Young Master instructed that he would be back for lunch," Maria replied.
"Maria, I'd like to trouble you for a favor, could you help me?" Xia Qingqian straightened up and looked at Maria.
"Miss Qing Qian, is there something I can help you with?" Maria was truly flattered. She didn't expect Xia Qingqian to ask her for a favor and didn't know what kind of favor it would be.
Xia Qingqian asked Maria to wait for a moment. She opened the bathroom door and came out fifteen minutes later, fully dressed, and then said to Maria, "That forest, can I go in?"
Maria looked at the place Xia Qingqian was pointing to and couldn't help but shiver. It wasn't that people couldn't go into that forest; rather, no one dared to. The forest was forbidden.
