Chapter 173 is suspicious.

The woman glanced at her but ignored her. After finishing her meal and wiping her mouth clean, she finally said a word.

"Work more and talk less here, that's best for you."

The management is indeed strict.

Wu Lihua was getting anxious. Such a large manor only had a large group of servants and a steward.

There are no traces of children or Sun Jianguo in this place, so they might as well go to an orphanage instead.

Despite having many questions, she kept them to herself. Master Gu must have his own plans, and she just needed to cooperate quietly.

After they finished eating, it was already past 3 p.m., but they didn't have time to rest. Two hours later, the master and the young master returned.

Gu Yunxi took a rag to the hall, found a table at random, and started wiping.

Slowly release your divine sense, directing it towards the second and third floors.

Gradually, all the images floated before her eyes, and there was nothing abnormal about the second floor.

There were several rooms, all neatly arranged, and a few maids were wiping the hallway.

As for the third floor, when my divine sense reached the third floor, it was surprisingly slow.

Strange, something's definitely wrong on the third floor. One room is a study, and the remaining space is a strange room.

Her divine sense couldn't penetrate it; the door seemed to be locked in several ways.

What exactly is hidden inside, or what secrets does it hold?

It seems we can only wait for Sun Jianguo to return and then try to sneak in.

Could that person be a cultivator? Why would they possess such formidable abilities?

At five o'clock, everyone split into two lines and stood on both sides of the main entrance, waiting for Sun Jianguo to return with his son.

Sun Rui said in a loud voice: "Sir, the young master is back."

Everyone crouched down slightly and greeted, "Greetings, sirs and young masters."

Sun Jianguo was accompanied by two children, or more accurately, a pair of twins.

The two children were about six years old and looked almost identical.

Gu Yunxi was puzzled. Didn't this person have some kind of physical problem?

Could it be that these two children were conceived through special means?

She felt a pair of eyes watching her profile out of the corner of her eye. She glanced at the woman standing next to her.

Seeing Wu Lihua with her bloodshot eyes staring intently at Sun Jianguo and the child beside him.

Feeling an urge to rush out, Gu Yunxi immediately pulled her back.

Wu Lihua came to her senses completely. How could those two children look so much like her lost Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan?

She almost lost control of her emotions and rushed out.

The two young masters didn't even look at who was standing next to them; their expressions were just as serious as Sun Jianguo's.

The three of them went upstairs without stopping.

"Alright, everyone disperse. The master and the two young masters are back. You newcomers also need to be careful. The master prefers peace and quiet, so don't do anything strange. If you disturb their rest, you'll be in big trouble."

Wu Lihua watched the two figures disappear from her sight.

Her children are still alive, and he is absolutely certain that the two children are his biological sons.

Three years have passed since I last saw them. They've grown up, gotten taller, and thinner. The childishness on their faces has faded, and they now look like little adults.

Three years have passed, and even his expression and every move are very similar to Sun Jianguo. Do three-year-old children have memories?

Have they ever thought about who their mother is?

Seeing her embarrassed expression, Gu Yunxi immediately pulled her back to her room and put a soundproofing sticker on the door.

"Sister Wu, what's wrong?"

“I…I think I saw Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, my lost twin sons. The two children next to Sun Jianguo just now look so much like my children.”

She grasped Gu Yunxi's hands in both, "Master Gu, they're still alive. Do you think they'll hold a grudge against me? If I hadn't taken them to the market, how could they have gotten lost?"

"Now that they're back, I'm going to take them home, back to a home that truly belongs to them."

"You mean the two young masters are your children? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Yes, they look a lot like they did when they were little. One has a mole on his left arm, and the other has a mole on his right arm. When they came in, they took off their coats, didn't they? I saw it clearly, it was them."

"No wonder I noticed something was off about your eyes back then. You must not act rashly. This Sun Jianguo is not as simple as he seems. Just now in the hall, I checked the second and third floors. The second floor is normal, there's nothing wrong with it. As for the third floor, it's more troublesome. I have a strong suspicion about Sun Jianguo. He might be cultivating, or he might be being guided by some powerful master."

"There are surveillance cameras throughout the house. We need to find a way to change the footage. I'll leave this to you to coordinate with the outside. I'm going to the third floor to see what secrets are hidden behind that locked door."

"Alright, Master, you must be careful too."

Hopefully, Liu Qingshan won't ruin his own life.

It gets dark very quickly in Pingcheng. Before 6 o'clock, it was completely dark, and all the lights in the resort were on.

The manor was brightly lit, just like daytime.

Gu Yunxi felt that the time was about right, so she put on an invisibility talisman and prepared to go up and take a look.

She had only taken a few steps when she suddenly stopped.

Looking back, I saw that something had been scattered on the stairs, which had somehow managed to leave all my footprints on it.

In other words, after the cleaning was completed, no one went up to the second floor.

If he hadn't noticed and had gone straight to the third floor, Jianguo would definitely have realized something was wrong.

He wiped away the footprints and slipped to the third floor.

It was truly a stroke of luck; I never expected that the tightly closed door would be ajar.

Through the crack, a sliver of light could be seen inside.

Suddenly hearing footsteps, Gu Yunxi leaned to one side.

Sun Rui came out, and in a flash, he slipped inside.

Sun Rui sensed something was wrong, adjusted his glasses, and looked down at the stairs.

There's been no change at all. Could it be that I'm overthinking things? Just now, I felt a gust of wind pass by.

Fortunately, no such powder was sprinkled on the third floor. Instead of going down the stairs directly, Sun Rui went to the corner. Unexpectedly, there was an elevator in the corner. He took the elevator and went downstairs.

Gu Yunxi entered the house, where the lights were much dimmer than outside.

She walked toward the light and saw some bottles and jars, which looked like they contained medicinal wine.

After passing through the corridor, there is another door.

Standing at the door, I could see through the crack in the door that there were three beds inside, with the two boys and Sun Jianguo lying on them.

A person wearing a white coat and a mask was drawing or transfusing blood from three people, it was unclear.

The two children stared blankly at the sky.

The man in the white coat picked up a sharp knife and made a cut on the little boy's index finger.

Quickly take out a clean container and collect blood drop by drop.

Feeling that it was about time, he applied some more medicine to his fingertips, then walked over to another child and repeated the same actions.

Just as Gu Yunxi was about to get a better look, she accidentally kicked the door, and a man in a white coat was looking out the door.

"who?"
