But she had to do it!
It wasn't just for Xu Yanshu; she also considered her own situation. She didn't want to live under her father's tyranny her whole life, nor did she want to be forced to sell her smiles to all sorts of men...
I've already sent the message, hoping that Yan Shu can make progress as soon as possible, and that I can also get rid of this beastly life as soon as possible.
After a long while, Xie Huanyu finally calmed down. She struggled to stand up and sat back down at her desk.
My father only briefly inquired about it today, but there's no guarantee he won't check the documents next time, so I need to be prepared for both possibilities.
Xie Huanyu reached out and dialed the internal phone on the table. "Xiao Yang, come in here!"
...
Taking advantage of the fact that both of them were free, Jiang Zhengyu and Xu Yanshu found the place together according to the location in the text message.
Looking at this desolate place, with no village or shop in sight, Jiang Zhengyu couldn't help but question his existence. "Yan Shu, do you think Xie Huanyu is deliberately playing a trick on us?"
Probably not.
Xu Yanshu cautiously pursed his lips, then opened the car door and got out.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhengyu quickly unbuckled his seatbelt. "Hey, wait for me!"
This place is indeed very remote...
Xu Yanshu looked around, hoping to find some flaw, but he couldn't find anything for a long time.
Jiang Zhengyu frowned slightly and said in an annoyed tone,
"This desolate wilderness is quite suitable for playing hide-and-seek!"
These words were like a wake-up call. Xu Yanshu turned and stared intently at Jiang Zhengyu. "What did you just say?"
"I... I said this remote place is perfect for hide-and-seek."
Yes, the more similar a place is, the more likely it is to be a cover-up.
Xu Yanshu suddenly understood. He nodded to himself, so Xie Huanyu probably wanted to remind him that something was hidden here.
He couldn't help but think of the basement of the Xie residence. He had thought he was safe, but he was disappointed when he arrived.
After gathering her thoughts, Xu Yanshu cautiously shared her speculation with Jiang Zhengyu, "Zhengyu, what do you think?"
Jiang Zhengyu nodded thoughtfully, his expression gradually becoming serious.
"Yes, I think your guess makes a lot of sense. According to Uncle He, there must have been quite a few ideas about those things."
"Given Xie Junyang's style, he wouldn't necessarily destroy everything just to avoid risks. So the only possibility is that he moved those things in advance."
Having taken risks to acquire something, and having carefully hidden it all along, it would be difficult for anyone to decide to give it up.
The two men exchanged a knowing glance, and then simultaneously began to look around.
Unexpectedly discovering a small path, Jiang Zhengyu promptly called out to Xu Yanshu, "Let's go up and take a look!"
Xu Yanshu subconsciously turned his head and, following the direction Zheng Yu was pointing, discovered the path hidden in two secluded fields.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he quickly followed.
The road was extremely narrow, allowing the two people to walk one in front of the other.
Seeing that they had walked for a long time without finding anything, Jiang Zhengyu couldn't help but hesitate. "Yan Shu, could it be that we guessed wrong? This place doesn't seem to be hiding anything."
Xu Yanshu was initially hesitant, but the next moment he vaguely smelled something and immediately became alert.
This smell...like blood?
He subconsciously took two steps forward, and the smell indeed became stronger.
Jiang Zhengyu noticed his friend's state and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong? Did you find something?"
"Jungwoo, wait for me here."
After giving this instruction, Xu Yanshu strode forward and soon found a detached building.
His suspicions were confirmed, and he was overjoyed, eager to get closer. But then he suddenly realized something.
No, we can't go any further.
Xu Yanshu turned around decisively, her steps steady and quick. Upon seeing Jiang Zhengyu, she immediately spoke.
"Zhengyu, let's talk about this when we get back!" "To be honest, I was really worried for Miss Xie..."
