The sight of the underground warehouse left Xie Linlin speechless.
This warehouse is very large.
Despite being underground, the bright lights and spacious, parking-like area give the illusion that you are not underground, but above ground.
Xie Linlin thought she had entered a shopping mall that had closed for the day.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad, but there was nothing in this vast underground warehouse.
Looking around, it's a bare shopping mall that hasn't been renovated yet.
wrong……
Xie Linlin suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye. Upon closer inspection, she saw a small safe quietly placed in the very center of the storeroom.
Yes.
The underground warehouse, capable of holding dozens of cars, boasts security comparable to a bank vault, making it one of the most secure underground warehouses in Jiang City…
There was nothing inside, except for a small safe sitting alone in the very center.
This discovery left young Xie Linlin completely bewildered.
Xie Linlin knew perfectly well how much money and manpower her father had spent on this underground warehouse, but all that was spent... just to store a small safe?
What exactly is inside?
Xie Linlin didn't believe her father was the kind of person who had money to burn.
The contents of this safe must be of immeasurable value.
Could it be all the savings of the Xie family?
For no apparent reason, Xie Linlin swallowed hard. She felt a little nervous, and her heart started pounding uncontrollably.
She walked over slowly, then squatted down, and the small safe stood quietly in front of her.
Xie Linlin stretched out her little hand and tried to turn the combination lock, wanting to open the safe.
But she didn't know what password her father had set. Xie Linlin tried her father's birthday, her mother's birthday, and their wedding anniversary...
All of them ended in failure.
Okay, it seems that even if someone sneaks in, they can't open it without the password.
But having come this far, Xie Linlin felt unwilling to just leave like this.
She sat on the ground, hugging her knees, staring quietly at the small safe in front of her, her cute brows furrowed, countless dangerous thoughts racing through her mind.
For example, you could go to the security department and borrow their explosives to blow open the safe.
—But can it be restored after being blown up? Xie Linlin dared not let her father discover that she had sneaked in.
Or go to the aunties in the logistics department, borrow a can of gasoline from them, pour it on, and ignite it to bring it to a boil.
—The question remains: can it be restored?
or……
Smash it open?
No, no, it still can't be restored.
Xie Linlin is a rare person who, at a stage of immature mental development, considers the consequences of her actions. Most children at this age do not think about the consequences of their actions; they only care about the present.
After much thought, Xie Linlin still couldn't find any other solution.
Currently, passwords seem to be the most secure method, as they can both unlock and restore the password.
After thinking about it for so long, I've come full circle...
Xie Linlin was speechless, but that was all she could do.
Since my father would set a password, it must be a date that is very important to him, has commemorative significance, and is easy to remember, so that I can ensure that I will not forget it.
It is important, memorable, and unforgettable...
Xie Linlin bit her finger and suddenly remembered someone's birthday.
Her own.
The thought popped into Xie Linlin's mind as if by magic. She reached out and typed in her birthday.
There was a click.
The safe door was opened.
Xie Linlin's eyes widened instantly. Clearly, even she herself couldn't believe that her father would use her birthday as the combination to the safe.
That stinky old man...
She really cares about herself!
Forgetting her joy, Xie Linlin flung open the safe door, eager to see what precious treasures were hidden inside.
She took the contents of the safe out, and upon closer inspection, her small expression immediately froze in shock.
There is only one photo.
The photo shows a woman with an ethereal air, standing against the wind as if she's about to ascend to heaven at any moment.
The woman was so beautiful that Xie Linlin, who was also a woman, felt inferior upon seeing her face.
It's as if this woman shouldn't have existed in this world at all.
She was incredibly beautiful.
He is a banished immortal from the mortal world.
What attracted Xie Linlin the most was the woman's temperament. Her eyes were looking at the camera, and those bright and beautiful eyes seemed to see herself in front of her through the photo.
Transcendence.
Only those two words remained in Xie Linlin's mind.
Young Xie Linlin had seen many beautiful older sisters, some of whom came to her house to ask her father for favors, others to attend banquets, and even some big stars on the screen.
Even those so-called award-winning actresses didn't have as much of an impact as this photo.
They shouldn't even be compared, otherwise it would be an insult to the woman in the photo.
After being amazed, Xie Linlin suddenly realized a problem.
Why is there such a photo in my father's safe?
To conceal this secret, they even went so far as to build such a massive underground warehouse, with security measures so high they were outrageous...
Does Father have a new love interest?
Can……
Is it unnecessary?
Such tight protection only makes his attempt to cover up the truth seem more obvious, doesn't it?
Xie Linlin couldn't figure it out, but the clever girl quickly realized she couldn't stay there any longer. She hurriedly put the photo back, restored the password to its original state, and left in a hurry.
...
"Then what?"
Bubble sat on the bed, sipping coffee, her feet in fluffy slippers lifting and lowering erratically.
"Then I was caught red-handed by my dad who had just come back. I don't understand why he came back early. Now that I think about it... how could there not be surveillance in such a well-protected underground warehouse? Maybe he had already seen me through the other end of the screen when I was sneaking around trying to go in."
Xie Linlin shrugged, clearly regretting that her first infiltration had ended in failure. "I've already told you what happened after that. He warned me that I must respect this woman and that if I ever encounter her again when I'm in charge of the Xie family, I must do everything in my power to meet all the conditions she sets."
"I don't know anything else, not even their names. It seems like my dad knows, but he never told me."
"Not only that, I know nothing about what she does, where she lives, or why we should respect her so much."
After Xie Linlin finished speaking, she looked at the bubbles in front of her and asked, "And you? What did your investigation find?"
