Xiao Lan was scared.
She looked at the woman squatting in front of her and felt terrified, like a demon.
From the beginning, no one knows who commented, but the new second wife seemed kind and easy to bully, and extremely weak. But now it seems that this second wife is ruthless.
"I'm giving you one last second..."
"Second Madam, Second Master is back!"
Before Wen could finish speaking, Xiao Kongkong, who had just received a phone call, immediately explained.
Xiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Yi's knife had already made a small cut on her face. "Looks like you're not going to give it to me."
Wen Yi seemed not to hear Xiao Kongkong's reminder.
"He's back and you still want it... I'll give it to you, it's in the safe in my room, the password is Second Master's birthday." Xiao Lan didn't dare to question it, and in her anxiety she said everything.
"Specific figures," Wen Yi reminded him.
When Xiao Lan stated the specific figures, Wen Yi immediately frowned.
This birthdate number is exactly the same as Gu Huaixu's.
But Wen Yi didn't have time to think about these things at the moment. There are many people in this world with the same name and surname, and countless people with the same birthday. There aren't that many coincidences.
Moreover, Wen Yi is someone who has seen the true face of Second Master Gu.
It couldn't be Gu Huaixu.
She handed the knife to Luo Yi, saying, "If I don't get what I need upstairs, I'll disfigure your face."
With those crisp words, Wen Yi strode upstairs.
Luo Yi, gripping the knife, almost instinctively exchanged a glance with Xiao Kongkong. Both of them understood from that look that this Madam Gu was a ruthless and vicious person.
His ruthlessness is no less than that of the Second Master.
Following Xiao Lan's instructions, Wen Yi not only found the only way to contact Master Gu, but also a photograph.
The photo showed the back of a man. Wen glanced at it and thought it looked a lot like Gu Huaixu, but since it belonged to someone else, she didn't need to touch it.
Wen Yi took the things downstairs and left with Luo Yi and Xiao Kongkong.
As Wen Yi walked toward the main villa, he saw the Second Master wearing a mask, leaning back in a wicker chair, looking at the sunflowers that Wen Yi had planted.
Very leisurely and carefree.
Wen Yichao walked over to Master Gu and sat down next to him.
Xiao Kongkong and Luo Yi wisely withdrew.
"I heard you went to great lengths, causing a scene with Xiao Lan, all to find me, huh?" Master Gu turned his head, looking at Wen Yi with a rather interesting gaze.
Wen Yi met his gaze and asked, "Do you know why I'm in such a hurry to find Second Master?"
"I don't know that."
"With your extraordinary abilities, how could Second Master not know?"
"Why is the Second Madam, who is usually so straightforward, suddenly beating around the bush with me, hmm?"
Wen Yi looked away, ending the eye contact with Second Master Gu.
Her face darkened. "I remember a few days ago, I asked Second Master Gu to help me investigate something."
"Oh, it's about your dead boyfriend, your—" Master Gu paused, looking at Wen Yixiao, "my favorite."
Wen turned her head and stared at Master Gu. "I want results now."
"No results."
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that nothing can be found out, and the person is dead."
"Is Second Master Gu joking with me? The dignified Second Master Gu of Yutingyuan can't even investigate a dead person."
"The person is already dead, what am I supposed to investigate?"
"What if..." the person hadn't died?
Wen Yisheng suppressed the urge to say those words.
Even if she spoke up, she had no evidence and no way to argue with this Second Master Gu.
“A thief broke into the top-floor room of Jinlumen last night,” Wen Yi changed the subject.
"Theft, burglary, crime?" Master Gu pondered these three words, looking quite intrigued.
"Yeah, I just went in suddenly and found out, but I caught him before he made a move. I just knocked him out and left." Wen Yi added a little more story to yesterday's events.
"Then what?"
"I'm worried that he might assault me, so I hope Second Master Gu will investigate yesterday's events thoroughly and, ideally, obtain video footage of him entering and leaving the room, so that I can be sure that I haven't been assaulted."
After Wen Yi finished speaking, Master Gu did not respond immediately, but waited for almost a minute before saying, "Madam doesn't seem to suspect that she has been violated."
"Does Master Gu mean that you are completely unconcerned about the possibility of your wife being violated?"
"What do you care? It doesn't matter if you sleep with other people, after all, we're just a business couple."
Wen Yi sneered, "Then I'm sorry, I don't have the same open-mindedness as Second Master Gu. I can't get over it, so I must get this video, or even just photos, I need to know who suddenly broke in yesterday!"
Before the other party could respond, Wen Yi added, "We agreed to be a cooperative couple, and I believe that Second Master Gu wouldn't refuse such a small request. Nor would he be unable to investigate someone's photos and videos on his own turf because of Second Master Gu's incompetence."
"You've really put a label on me. If I don't clear things up for you, I won't be able to stay in Yutingyuan any longer."
“It’s not that you can’t stay at the Imperial Garden, it’s that the reputation of the dignified Second Master Gu will be completely ruined. You will have to admit your incompetence.”
"You have such a sharp tongue." Master Gu's face turned cold.
Wen Yi did not back down and met his gaze. "Second Master Gu, proceed with your investigation. I'll be waiting for you here."
"I will have someone investigate, and I will let you know after I have investigated clearly."
"Is it possible that Master Gu will take several days to investigate something this small?" Wen Yi continued to provoke. "I thought an hour or two was the limit. Is there really something wrong with Master Gu's abilities?"
Master Gu had already stood up. Listening to Wen Yi's provocation, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the back of Wen Yi's head, forcing him to look at him.
"Would you like to give me a try, given my abilities?"
"I can give it a try, but I don't know if I'll get what I want after trying it."
Master Gu closed his eyes and stared at Wen Yi.
There was no fear in her eyes, only sharpness, a clear and unwavering determination to know what she wanted.
She needs to get the video by today.
No matter the method, no matter the cost.
His older sister is always so smart and has such clear goals.
"Someone will deliver the items within half an hour."
Gu Huaixu released Wen Yi and turned to leave.
Having received the promise, Wen Yi breathed a sigh of relief. After Master Gu left, Wen Yi leaned weakly against the rattan chair.
She was actually afraid when she made eye contact with Master Gu just now.
No, to be precise, Wen Yi was a little scared from the moment he approached Xiao Lan.
She was afraid that Xiao Lan would never give her contact information in the end, and that even if she did, it would be a fake contact information. In that case, the situation would end very badly, and Wen Yi was not sure if she could handle it.
At the same time, I'm afraid...
