Chapter 2215 Underestimating the Little Girl's Ability
"What? Ling Feng and Mu Ying have already left?" Xiao Chongyang said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, Mr. Xiao, I didn't find them." Uncle Wei said palely, his breathing still not steady.
Xiao Chongyang sneered. No wonder Xiao Jun hadn't been worried about them. He glanced at the old butler beside him calmly and said, "Old Wei, is this enough to make you change your expression?"
Uncle Wei looked around and said in a lower voice, "No, your study was robbed. Ling Feng opened the safe and took some things away!"
"What?" Xiao Chongyang stood up suddenly.
Uncle Wei quickly supported him and said, "Don't worry, I've already sent someone to chase them."
Xiao Chongyang closed his eyes. Ling Feng was trained by him. He knew very well that if Ling Feng had really done all these and could successfully escape from his study, he would definitely be able to escape from this house.
The most important thing now is to confirm what Ling Feng took away.
As long as it wasn't those documents, Xiao Chongyang would accept it...
Otherwise, Xiao Chongyang's handle would fall into Ling Feng's hands, and he would become completely passive when dealing with the Chu and Gu families in the future.
At the same time, he comforted himself that he was the only one who knew the location and password of that safe. Even Uncle Wei didn't know it. Even if Ling Feng found it, he might not be able to open it.
He had to see it with his own eyes anyway.
After calming down a bit, Xiao Chongyang said to Uncle Wei, "Come with me to the study."
Xiao Chongyang left the banquet hall, walked quickly upstairs and entered his study.
Even though Xiao Chongyang had experienced countless things, he couldn't help but shake when he saw the situation after his study was robbed.
The thing he feared most happened.
The safe that Ling Feng stole was the one he had hidden behind the deer head decoration on the wall. Now the safe was empty.
Once those documents were released, they would be enough to ruin Xiao Chongyang's decades of business.
He felt dizzy and Uncle Wei quickly supported him.
"Help me to the sofa."
Uncle Wei helped him to the sofa and poured him a cup of hot tea.
"Mr. Xiao, what did Ling Feng take away?" Uncle Wei asked carefully.
Xiao Chongyang took a sip of tea and did not answer Uncle Wei's question. Instead, he asked another question: "Ling Feng was in the banquet hall just now. How did he rob my study in such a short time?"
"Mu Ying must have done it."
Xiao Chongyang clenched the teacup tightly. He had underestimated the ability of this little girl.
But there are still some things I can't figure out.
Only he and the engineer who built this house knew the location of this safe. Before today, even Uncle Wei didn't know about the existence of this safe.
Now that the engineer has passed away, how did Mu Ying find his safe?
Even if that girl had the ability to find the location of the safe, she would not be able to guess the combination. The combination used a reverse order of the date and was different from any of his passwords.
The safe will alarm if a wrong number is entered. How could she know the password accurately, with every number correct?
No matter how capable this girl is, she can't do all of this at the same time.
So was there something I had overlooked, or was that girl really too amazing?
He regretted that he had not updated the anti-theft system of this safe. He was afraid that people would know the existence of this safe, so he never updated it. If he had used the latest anti-theft technology, perhaps today's problem would not have occurred.
But at the same time, he also felt a strong sense of unease, as if he was surrounded by hidden cameras monitoring his every move.
And everyone around him seemed to be suspicious, secretly observing him and then plotting to murder him...
He recalled everything that happened in the banquet hall. Those who were playing with their phones might be receiving some detection signals. Those who were whispering and glancing at him from time to time seemed to be talking about things related to him and plotting how to drag him into trouble.
Xiao Chongyang realized that his spirit was becoming more and more tense and was about to break.
Fortunately, Uncle Wei handed him the hot tea, and Xiao Chongyang drank it in big gulps.
Uncle Wei said, "Can you still hold on? If not, I'll take you to your room to rest. Miss Hanlu is downstairs to take care of you anyway..."
Xiao Zhongyang waved his hand: "No, I'll just take it easy. I'm not that fragile yet."
He must have a good rest now, and he also needs to think seriously about what to do next.
Whether it is towards Chu Lingfeng, his own son, or everyone around him, he has to think carefully.
Perhaps he had been kind for too long, causing these people to forget how to respect him.
…
Xiao Chongyang closed his eyes to rest. Uncle Wei looked at the open safe and fell into deep thought.
The safe is hidden behind the wall decorations and can only be opened by understanding the mechanisms in the house. Even Uncle Wei knew for the first time that there was a safe there.
He served Mr. Xiao personally, and even he didn't know about the safe, so how did Mu Ying find it?
Judging from the surveillance footage, Mu Ying entered the study for only a few minutes. Uncle Wei didn't believe that she had accidentally guessed the location of the safe and the correct password.
Uncle Wei was curious about how Mu Ying did all this. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder if Mr. Xiao had a trick up his sleeve.
However, he immediately told himself that this was how Mr. Xiao was. From the day he met him, the only person Mr. Xiao could trust was himself. There was nothing surprising about this.
Uncle Wei stopped letting his thoughts run wild and stayed with Mr. Xiao for a while before returning to the banquet hall.
After confirming that everything was going on in order in the banquet hall and that Hanlu and Young Master Ajun were there, Uncle Wei left with peace of mind.
Afterwards, he personally commanded the bodyguards, hoping to catch the ignorant little girl, Mu Ying.
As long as she is caught, she will never get out alive.
As for Ling Feng, Uncle Wei just checked the surveillance video, and the video showed that ten minutes ago, Ling Feng drove away from the manor alone.
Mu Ying never showed up from beginning to end and did not get into the car, so there was no possibility that she was taken out by him.
During this period, no suspicious vehicles left the manor. There was only one electric car driving inside the manor, which was driven by the manor driver and a maid who had worked in the manor for six or seven years to pick up a guest.
Unless Mu Ying grew wings, there was no way she could escape from the manor.
In the banquet hall, there was still singing and dancing, and the guests were toasting each other.
Outside the banquet hall, the gate of the Xiao residence had been sealed. Security guards in black were moving in and out of the residence like nimble black cats, searching for Mu Ying.
However, after a thorough search, the security guards, who were as agile as black cats, stood dejectedly in front of Uncle Wei and said that they had even checked the sewer outlets of the Xiao residence and found no trace of anyone having walked there.
Uncle Wei examined each of their faces angrily.
"A living person just evaporated like that?"
