Chapter 19 This girl is spoiled by your favor
The phone's temperature grew hotter as it got closer to the door.
Shen Zhiyi was excited. This was a big goal.
She walked to the guard, sorted out her lines, and was about to speak when she saw the barrier rise.
"Welcome home, owners."
owner?
go home?
She looked around, where was the owner?
Apart from her and her car, there was no one else around who could be considered the "owner".
The guard stood guard like a soldier and didn't speak.
Although Shen Zhiyi couldn't figure it out, he didn't ask anything.
As long as I can get in, it's fine.
She quickly got back to the car and drove inside.
Smooth journey.
Tsk, Fatty Zhou is really unreliable.
This security system looks strict, but it is actually full of loopholes.
She glanced at the car Shen Zhixian gave her, thinking that it must be its credit.
This car is worth several million and is worthy of the level of this community.
She was concentrating on driving and didn't notice that Fatty Zhou was chasing her in a hurry from behind the car.
As a result, he was stopped by the security guard.
Fatty Zhou hurriedly explained, "Brother, I was with that girl. You saw me get out of her car just now, right?"
The guard said expressionlessly: "Please leave immediately, or I will be rude to you."
Fatty Zhou could only call Shen Zhiyi harder, but he was soon driven aside.
Inside the security room, another guard made a phone call and said respectfully, "Mr. Xiao, we've done as you asked. Your guest has gone in, and the suspicious man has been blocked outside."
**
Shen Zhiyi followed the compass route all the way and finally arrived at the gate of a European-style villa.
The villa looks well-maintained, but it is very unpopular, almost non-existent.
Under the dark pupils, it was impossible to see its appearance clearly. The resentment in it was much heavier than that in my aunt's villa.
There was no one around, so she climbed over the side wall and entered.
As soon as my feet touched the ground, a shrill alarm sounded throughout the surroundings.
She had no choice but to go out.
Unexpectedly, he moved too fast and one of his shoes fell inside when he was pushing against the wall.
The sound of footsteps came from all around, and when Shen Zhiyi climbed over the wall to go out, a pair of security guards just surrounded him.
"Trespassing into a private residence, arrest her!"
The security captain had the air of a palace guard, and his men were also very agile and quick, subduing Shen Zhiyi in an instant.
Shen Zhiyi: "Listen to my explanation."
"You'll have a chance to explain yourself when we get to the police station!"
"Wait, Master Xiao has instructed that if anything happens, notify him immediately, no need to call the police."
Mr. Xiao?
Shen Zhiyi listened silently without interrupting.
She didn't resist and decided to see what was going on.
Mr. Xiao must be the owner of this house. He must know the inside story.
She was imprisoned in a circle and guarded by several people.
"What are you doing?"
A familiar gentle voice came, and Shen Zhiyi raised his eyes to look.
Xiao Lanting walked against the backdrop of a low wall bathed in the setting sun. The soft, warm sunlight cast a shadow on his face, radiating an innate elegance. The tense atmosphere softened with his presence.
At this moment, Shen Zhiyi regretted his decision to sit back and wait.
Why did I meet him here?
So embarrassing.
She pulled her mask tighter, thinking he wouldn't be able to recognize her.
“Chen Zhiyi, I haven’t seen you for a whole morning, and you’ve already opened the map here?”
A teasing tone.
Shen Zhiyi felt a tingling sensation as if he was being stared at by thousands of people.
She pulled down her mask and chuckled at the man: "Teacher, I actually went to the wrong place. It was a misunderstanding."
She looked at him carefully: "Is this house yours?"
Xiao Lanting couldn't understand the solemnity in the little girl's eyes. He passed her over and fixed his gaze on the security captain's face.
"Nothing, go get busy."
The security captain said in embarrassment: "Third Master, we are also working for your uncle, please understand."
"I'll explain his side myself."
Hearing this, Shen Zhiyi understood.
This house does not belong to Xiao Lanting, but to his uncle.
His uncle was the man she eavesdropped on.
The president of Hongde who is afraid of Xiao Lanting.
The deceased was his employee when he was alive, and now the real body is trapped in his house.
His house was heavily guarded.
After analyzing it one by one, Shen Zhiyi had a clear idea in his mind.
Xiao Lanting's uncle must be closely related to the death of the owner of the jade ring!
While she was distracted, the security team had already been sent away by Xiao Lanting.
She lowered her head, not daring to meet Xiao Lanting's eyes.
"Tell me about it."
Xiao Lanting's tone was not too harsh, rather like that of a heartless boy next door, as if he just happened to pass by and asked casually.
Shen Zhiyi slowly let go of her nervousness, raised her head and looked at him, and said: "Well, I'll do a live broadcast to check out the location."
"Know the law?"
"Well... I know I was wrong, teacher." Shen Zhiyi knew he was in the wrong and apologized with a smile: "Next time I will definitely ask for the host's consent first."
Xiao Lanting looked unconvinced and glanced inside the villa, "Why did you choose this place?"
"I heard there's something here."
"Who told you that? The man outside?"
"A man?" Shen Zhiyi was surprised for a second, then reacted: "It's a fat man, right? Oh, yes, it's him. He is my client. He came to me and said he wanted to do business, so I came here."
She thought that Fatty Zhou must have come back and didn't see her, so he was making a fuss at the door, and was just seen by Xiao Lanting.
"You just believe what people say?" Xiao Lanting's calm voice revealed a hint of helplessness. He sighed softly, "Okay, let's go home."
"Can't leave!"
An angry voice came.
Shen Zhiyi saw the man from last night walking towards her quickly, his eyebrows and eyes full of anger.
Xiao Lanting saw him and greeted him softly, "Uncle."
"Lanting, why are you here too?" Xiao Yi asked angrily.
But he didn't seem to think this was important. Before Xiao Lanting could answer, he looked at Shen Zhiyi and scolded her without any hesitation: "You are so brave to break into a private house!"
Shen Zhiyi couldn't say anything back, after all, she was in the wrong.
She said, "Mr. Xiao, I accept any punishment."
"But I left my shoes in there, and I want to go in and get them. Could you please help me?"
Xiao Yi cast a murderous look straight at her.
Shen Zhiyi even felt the murderous aura.
"It was my fault for not explaining it clearly. She went the wrong way, and it was me who made her climb the wall. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
Xiao Lanting's tall body blocked her way, like a majestic mountain, and a caring and reassuring feeling filled Shen Zhiyi's heart.
She peeked out from behind him and glanced at Xiao Yigan.
Although the other party was angry, he did not make any substantive decision out of consideration for his face.
"Lanting, don't take advantage of your grandfather's affection and look down on everyone! This girl is so arrogant because of your favor that she thinks she can do whatever she wants. But I'm telling you, if this happens again, I won't even give your father face!"
"Also, what's the point of loitering during work hours? Don't think I can't say anything about you just because you run your own company! Your little company is just a speck of dust in front of Hongde! Instead of focusing on developing it, you're just daydreaming all day. If you keep going like this, what kind of future can you achieve?"
"Learn from your older brothers and save your parents some worry! If I were your parents, seeing how lazy you are, I would have taught you a lesson with a stick a long time ago. You're so lucky to have such gentle parents!"
Shen Zhiyi felt a fire rising from the bottom of his heart.
Just then a bird flew across the sky.
She moved her fingers gently, and a small stone popped out, knocking the bird down and landing on Xiao Yigan's face!
