She lowered her eyes and glanced at him.
At some point, he actually decided to change out of his usual white shirt and white trousers.
Then, she put on a black hoodie and black trousers.
This outfit...
Rong Chang glanced at it, her pupils suddenly contracting.
The man before her eyes overlapped with a scene from her memory.
She seemed to understand who he really was.
"you……"
She had barely opened her mouth to speak when the man's icy hand covered her mouth once more.
"Don't speak."
Standing close by, a chill emanated from the man as he spoke.
The voice was a bit cold.
If Rong Shang still couldn't see such an obvious difference, then she would be truly foolish.
"Come with me."
At this moment, without her consent, the man pulled her hand again and quickly walked into the bedroom.
Inside the room, the first thing that catches the eye is a mural depicting angels and demons facing each other on either side.
Rong Chang raised an eyebrow, still somewhat surprised.
Unfortunately, before she could get a good look at her, the man walking in front of her pulled her away.
Only then did I realize that there was a hidden door behind the mural.
At that moment, the sound of hurried, chaotic footsteps came from all around and grew closer and closer.
The man pushed against the wall with his hand, and with a whoosh...
It's open.
It is a secret room.
There was only one light on in the secret room, making it very dark.
The two walked in one after the other, as if they had disappeared into the night.
Rong Shang turned and glanced at Nan Qiaosheng. "Where's the door?"
"Shouldn't we turn it off?"
He didn't look at her, nor did he say anything.
But Rong Chang discovered that the door behind her had closed automatically.
"..."

"Boss, nobody's here."
Just as the door closed, Yan Jie, who had reached the bedroom door in the corridor, paused slightly upon hearing his subordinate's report.
Nobody here?
"How could that be?"
The downstairs door was still open, and he did see someone in the car just now, so how could this be...?
With a furrowed brow, Yan Jie looked at the room in front of him.
We've searched everywhere, and this is the only room left to search.
"Go in and search."
The door isn't even closed, so the person probably isn't inside.
Yan Jie, looking rather unwell, stepped aside and let his men go inside.
Just then, a phone call came in. Yan Jie took out his phone, glanced at it, and quickly went to a quieter spot to answer the call.
"Second Master."
"Has the person been found?"
A deep, resonant voice came from the phone, and Yan Jie unconsciously tightened his grip on the phone.
"We found him... but he got away again."
"What?!" the person on the other end exclaimed angrily. "You bunch of good-for-nothings can't even keep an eye on one person!"
"..."
"Yan Jie, I think your work ability is getting worse and worse. Listen to me, if you don't want to work here anymore, pack your bags and leave."
One furious roar after another rang out. Yan Jie gritted his teeth, the veins on the back of his hand holding the phone bulging. "Second Master, please let me explain."
After holding it in for a long time, Yan Jie finally said, "Young Master knows our whereabouts. He was already gone when we arrived."
"I don't care what the reason is, Yan Jie, if you can't find what I want and the person I want, you might as well die out there and never come back!"
Beep beep...
The call has already been disconnected.
In the room behind them, the bodyguard had just finished searching people and came out to report, only saying, "Nobody's here."
Yan Jie turned around while holding his phone, and with a crisp "smack," a slap landed squarely on his face.
"waste!"
