study.

After Qin Shu signed, she stood up and stretched her slightly sore waist.

She has been taking a lot of tonics these days, and her already slim body has become even thinner.

There is not much change in her curves, but the biggest change is her chubby face, which has become oval-shaped and has lost much of the cute, round flesh.

“Hmm—”

Qin Shu stretched out her slender arms, and let out a sigh through her beautiful red lips.

The soft and tender moan reached the ears of Xie Lanzhi as he pushed open the door and walked in.

His clear and elegant eyebrows moved slightly, and he walked forward with steady and calm steps, holding Qin Shu in his arms with one hand from behind.

The rich fragrance filled his nose. Xie Lanzhi took a deep sniff and leaned close to Qin Shu's ear to ask, "Are you feeling unwell? Let me rub it for you?"

Qin Shu relaxed her body, leaned on Xie Lanzhi's chest, and looked at the sky outside through the window.

She said softly, "No, just move around for a while, we're about to leave for Beijing."

Xie Lanzhi's hand fell on Qin Shu's lower back and he massaged her skillfully.

"Don't worry, Amuti needs a little more preparation. We probably won't be able to leave until tonight."

Qin Shu turned her head and asked in confusion: "Why is it so late?"

Xie Lanzhi lowered his eyes and said, "I just received news that there is news about Miss Nine."

Qin Shu opened her beautiful eyes slightly and raised her voice to ask, "Really? Where is she?"

"The news is still uncertain. When Du Yi mentioned Maozhen Pharmaceutical Company a few days ago, I suspected that they might have a connection with Ninth Girl, so I asked someone to check it out. Following the clues, I found that Ninth Girl might have gone to Yunzhen City."

Yunzhen City?

Qin Shu's face changed drastically, and she blurted out: "I remember Yang Yunchuan and Qin Baozhu were in Yunzhen City!"

Two days ago, her elder brother Qin Hairui came to Hong Kong and discussed with Li Hongyan about opening a branch in Hong Kong.

The brother and sister had a brief exchange, and Qin Hairui said that he had met Qin Baozhu in Yunzhen City. The other party was dressed lavishly and had an arrogant attitude.

Xie Lanzhi's hands, which were massaging Qin Shu's waist, paused for a moment, then lowered his eyes to look at Qin Shu, whose face was solemn.

"What's wrong? Do you suspect that Miss Nine has anything to do with them?"

Qin Shu was silent for a while, then shook her head: "...I just suddenly remembered it."

In fact, the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.

Why did the Ninth Girl go to Yunzhen City? It was such a coincidence.

If she really got together with Yang Yunchuan, Qin Shu reasonably suspected that she had more than one enemy, Guo Huifang, in her previous life.

Xie Lanzhi gently stroked Qin Shu's charming and fair face and comforted her softly: "The matter is still uncertain, Amuti is verifying it. No matter where Miss Nine is, I will do my best to catch her."

Qin Shu nodded obediently: "Okay, I'll ask my eldest brother to keep an eye on it later."

Just keep an eye on Yang Yunchuan and Qin Baozhu. If you spot a strange woman around them, it is most likely the Ninth Girl.

Xie Lanzhi responded in an inaudible voice and continued to gently massage Qin Shu's sore lower back.

The two stood in front of the window, basking in the warm sunshine. The atmosphere was warm and peaceful.

As it was getting dark, Amuti finally came back.

He did not come alone, he brought with him a man who was wearing a black robe and looked a little short and a little fat.

Amuti asked someone to wait outside, walked in alone, and sat in the living room of the Guo family.

"Brother Lan, Mrs. Benson wants to meet her sister-in-law."

Xie Lanzhi, who was talking to his grandfather, subconsciously turned his head to look at Qin Shu who was whispering to Qian Lina.

When Qin Shu heard that Chris wanted to see her, unconscious resistance appeared in her eyes.

She couldn't describe the feeling she had about Chris as a good or bad woman. She just didn't want to have too much contact with her, as she always felt that her secrets would be exposed to her.

Xie Lanzhi saw Qin Shu's resistance and said softly, "If you don't want to see me, I'll ask someone to refuse for you."

Qin Shu bit her red lips and looked up at Amuti: "Did she tell me what she wanted to talk to me about?"

Amuti shook his head: "I didn't tell you why I came. I just said I knew you were leaving and came to see you."

When Qin Shu heard this, she asked bluntly, "You mean, she's already here?"

"Yes, she's just outside the door." Amuti said distressedly, "I met Mrs. Benson outside the manor. She was standing at the door alone. After all, she is the governor's wife. It's not good to leave her outside like this."

Qin Shu thought to herself, now that everyone is here, she will have to see them even if she doesn’t want to.

She showed a helpless smile on her slightly charming face: "Please invite him in quickly. What's the point of letting him wait outside?"

You have to know that Chris is the most noble woman in Hong Kong today.

Amuti showed embarrassment on his face: "Mrs. Benson didn't want to come in. She said she wanted to talk to you alone."

Qin Shu hesitated for only a moment and then slowly stood up.

Xie Lanzhi quickly supported her, carefully handling her as if she were a fragile item: "You haven't recovered yet, put on a coat before you go out."

He picked up the men's coat draped over the back of the sofa and wrapped Qin Shu's petite body around it.

"It's windy outside. If you're cold, go to the teahouse next door. It's quiet there and no one will disturb you."

Qin Shu tightened her coat and nodded with a smile: "Got it, I'll go out and see what's going on."

*

Outside the door.

Chris, wearing a long black robe and wrapped tightly all over her body, had her back to the entrance door of the Guo family.

Qin Shu came out wearing a coat and called out softly, "Mrs. Benson?"

Chris slowly turned around, revealing a pair of eyes that reflected a light golden light in the night.

Her complexion was ruddy, and her pronunciation was a little unclear: "Qin Shu, hello."

Qin Shu smiled and nodded: "Hello."

Chris walked forward and shook Qin Shu's hand very abruptly: "I'm sorry that it took so long to come to you. Thank you very much for curing me."

Qin Shu felt the coolness on the back of her palm, and lowered her eyes to stare at Chris's hand, which was no longer skinny but had a little fleshiness.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in a distant and polite tone: "It's just a piece of cake, and your husband helped me first."

If Mr. Benson had not mobilized police forces to surround Kowloon Walled City and search house to house, Xie Lanzhi would not have been able to find her and the Guo family so quickly.

Chris's eyes, like flowing gold, gazed deeply at Qin Shu.

She said, "Qin Shu, I dreamed of you the night I returned."

Qin Shu raised her eyelids and met Chris's clear golden eyes whose emotions were impossible to detect.

She followed the conversation and asked, "Really? What did you dream about me?"

Chris did not answer, but introduced herself: "You seem to not know my identity yet. Let me formally introduce myself. I am from the Black family of England."

The Black family?

The witch family that has existed in England for nearly a thousand years?

Qin Shu's breathing became heavier. Thinking back to what Chris had said when they first met, she couldn't help but feel a little numb.

The Black family has very special abilities - psychic, divination, prediction.
