"But why do I feel like there's no one inside?"
Shen Yuan took two tentative steps forward, but did not see the man in the gap.
If Xu Zhixu was inside, why didn't this person turn on the light?
The party outside was so noisy, but this room seemed isolated from the world.
It was totally out of place at the banquet.
It even made Shen Yuan a little suspicious and felt strange.
"It's really Mr. Xu in there."
The man spoke firmly, without the slightest hesitation.
Especially after confirming this, the man's expression changed.
Shen Yuan didn't believe it, so the man took Shen Yuan forward.
He walked all the way to the door and then stopped.
This time, Shen Yuan was only about half a step away from the room.
"Mr. Xu is just in a bad mood. He turned off the lights when he was resting alone. If you go in, Mr. Xu will definitely turn on the lights. Don't worry, I'll be guarding outside."
There is someone on the second floor.
Chen Yuan turned around and observed, and found that there were still many bigwigs from all walks of life coming and going on the second floor.
Many people were talking and it looked very lively.
Chen Yuan looked down again and saw Gu Jiju's figure again.
He probably went to the bathroom just now and now he is back to where he was just now, just downstairs where Shen Yuan is standing.
With the appearance of Gu Jiju, Chen Yuan's uneasy heart was finally calmed down a little.
The two looked at each other, and the man nodded, giving Chen Yuan a firm answer.
"Come in, Mr. Xu is still waiting for you."
Shen Yuan didn't waste any words and raised his hand to knock on the door.
A deep male voice came from inside, but Shen Yuan couldn't tell whether the person was Xu Zhixu.
I never cared what Xu Zhixu's voice sounded like before.
"Enter."
With doubt and uneasiness in his heart, Chen Yuan gradually walked in.
The bright scene before my eyes suddenly became pitch black.
Not far away, there was a man sitting by the window with his back to her.
From the back, the man looked thin, holding a wine glass in one hand and a cigarette in the other.
His posture looked extremely arrogant, as if he was drunk.
Logically speaking, Xu Zhixu shouldn't be so decadent.
The Xu Zhixu I had seen before had never appeared in this image.
What happened today?
Could it be that he found out about what happened between him and Gu Jiju and became so sad that he started to fall into depravity?
"You... do you have something to talk to me about?"
The man with his back to her didn't say anything, but Shen Yuan felt curious and continued asking.
The man suddenly spoke, his voice was hoarse and slightly low.
After hearing this, Shen Yuan was left with only doubts in his heart.
The Xu Zhixu I know doesn't sound like this.
"I do need to talk to you about something. I haven't seen you lately and thought you'd ignored me. I happened to be here on a business trip and heard you were there, so I asked someone to connect you. I didn't expect you to actually come up."
Chen Yuan curled his lips, feeling strange.
"What's wrong with your voice? I don't remember it sounding this hoarse before."
"nothing."
The man continued to smoke and drink, and the air was filled with smoke.
The air quality in the whole room is not very good.
Coupled with the dim light, Chen Yuan always had a bad feeling.
Especially after the man said this, Shen Yuan felt even more strange.
"I just drank too much and my voice is hoarse, that's all. Don't think too much about it."
"Are you really okay? I always feel like something's wrong with you. Also, didn't you want to chat with me? Why are you facing away from me like this? Also, can you please turn on the light? Don't you think the room is too dark?"
After the words fell, Shen Yuan subconsciously turned on the light.
The originally dim room suddenly became bright.
After being in dim light for a long time, Shen Yuan felt dazzled when suddenly exposed to such light.
The woman closed her eyes subconsciously and just saw Xu Zhixu's actions through the gap.
The man was raising his hand to touch his eye sockets, and it was obvious that his eyes hurt because he was not used to it.
"Turn around, let's talk face to face."
Xu Zhixu didn't answer, but Shen Yuan felt strange.
Since the man didn't respond, Shen Yuan simply walked up to Xu Zhixu and forced him to tell her the purpose of calling her here today.
Just as Shen Yuan took a step forward, Xu Zhixu in front of him suddenly frightened Shen Yuan.
In an instant, the woman saw the appearance of the man in front of her.
This person is not Xu Zhixu at all.
But it was a stranger that Shen Yuan had never seen before.
"ah!"
A scream was heard, followed by the door behind them suddenly closing.
The man in front of him also stood up.
Things happened so fast that Shen Yuan couldn't figure out what was going on.
Isn’t it Xu Zhixu?
Aren't you going to talk to yourself?
Why is this person not Xu Zhixu, and the door behind him is closed at this moment.
When Chen Yuan looked back, the original way of retreat was gone.
"Who are you."
The man exuded a distinct smell of cigarettes and alcohol.
Chen Yuan really couldn't stand it, and subconsciously frowned and tightened his nose.
Seeing Shen Yuan's frightened look, the man suddenly laughed out loud.
“Who the hell are you!”
The man just moved closer and didn't answer Shen Yuan's question at all.
"You don't need to care who I am. You just need to know that I'm here today because someone sent me here. It's not because I want to, but because someone wants to harm you."
Shen Yuan took a deep breath, frightened by the man's words and feeling a little overwhelmed.
