Chapter 459 The good news is that the secret compartment has been found!
Inside the room, Xu Yue had been standing against the wall, listening carefully to the noises outside. She breathed a sigh of relief only when she heard two footsteps gradually going away.
Because his whole body had been tense for a long time, Xu Yue almost fell to the ground when he relaxed.
He quickly grabbed the wall and managed to stabilize himself.
After his physical condition recovered a little, Xu Yue no longer hesitated, and hurried forward to search carefully on the clock.
After a while, a small secret compartment was found inside the clock.
But when Xu Yue opened it, he was really disappointed.
The good news is that the secret compartment has been found!
The bad news is that there is no documentary evidence at all!
There were about ten gold bars in the secret compartment, as well as several stacks of gold coins and some jewelry that looked expensive.
Although Xu Yue was very disappointed, he did not dare to delay. He quickly restored the secret compartment to its original state and tiptoed out of the study.
However, just as she carefully closed the study door and was about to turn around, she noticed a figure on the door that was not her.
Xu Yue turned around reflexively and met Sun Shan's calm eyes.
It turned out that he had returned to the study door without knowing when!
If it weren't for the last bit of rationality, Xu Yue would have shouted out loud.
After all, it was the dead of night and everyone was extremely nervous. If someone suddenly stood behind him, anyone would be startled.
You know, when people scare others, it can really scare them to death.
However, even though she managed to control herself and not scream, Xu Yue still reflexively took a step back.
One of them lost his balance and fell to the side.
But as soon as her body leaned forward, she fell into someone's arms.
Sun Shan picked up Xu Yue horizontally, without saying a word, and walked straight towards their room.
Xu Yue then realized that Sun Shan had just woken up and naturally discovered that she was not in the room!
She was so busy looking for the secret compartment that she didn't even think of such an obvious flaw.
Xu Yue hit his head with his hand in annoyance, but heard a low voice the next moment.
"Don't move, be obedient!"
Xu Yue froze for a moment, his brain racing, thinking about how he could get away with it.
Her behavior tonight really didn't seem like that of a nine-year-old lunatic.
Just as she was still thinking about what to say, she saw Sun Shan put her down on the edge of the bed, then turned around and left the room again.
After a while, Sun Shan walked up to Xu Yue with a wet towel in his hand, knelt on one knee, put her feet on his knees, and wiped them carefully.
Only when Xu Yue saw the stains on the towel did she react.
In order not to make any noise, she didn't wear shoes and walked around barefoot. No wonder her feet were dirty.
The towel was warm, and Sun Shan's movements were very gentle, as if he was wiping some treasure.
Xu Yue looked at the man in front of her with his head lowered, opened her mouth, but still couldn't say anything for a long time.
In fact, Sun Shan and she can be considered childhood sweethearts.
When she was about five years old, Xu Yao brought Sun Shan back home, saying that he was the child of a fallen comrade-in-arms. From then on, he lived in their Xu family.
At the beginning, Xu Yue disliked Sun Shan very much and felt that his arrival divided the love of his parents.
Moreover, Sun Shan at that time might have just experienced a major change. He was taciturn, untalkative, dark and thin.
Xu Yue was even unwilling to take Sun Shan with her when she went out to play with the other kids in the compound, and she even joined everyone in giving Sun Shan the nickname "Black Charcoal".
At first, Xu Yue was worried that Sun Shan would complain to Xu Yao, but later, when Xu Yao remained silent, she felt relieved.
However, Sun Shan was too submissive, and Xu Yue gradually lost interest in him.
After all, he looked indifferent, and even when he was bullied, he didn't seem to care at all, which made people feel no sense of accomplishment.
Later, when he grew up, Xu Yue offended many people because of his arrogance.
One time, Xu Fei happened to make an appointment to play basketball with someone and left early. After school, Xu Yue was harassed by a few gangsters.
Just when she was completely desperate, Sun Shan suddenly rushed out from nowhere and saved her.
Since then, Xu Yue has actually changed her opinion of Sun Shan.
But she was too proud at that time, and even if she wanted to make peace, she would never say it out loud.
So even though they live under the same roof, two people are like strangers.
Although Xu Yao adopted Sun Shan, Sun Shan did everything in the Xu family, as if only in this way could he repay the Xu family for raising him.
Later on, even some of the dirty work that Xu Fei wanted to do would be thrown to Sun Shan, and he always worked hard without complaint.
Sometimes Xu Yue couldn't stand it and wanted to say something, but when she saw Sun Shan's diligent appearance, she swallowed the words back.
In the years since she returned from Yu County, she really went crazy, and the memories in her mind were confused and noisy.
Including giving birth to a child at that time, for her, who was crazy, she had no idea what it was like.
But maybe the medicine I took over the years worked, or maybe it was God's will.
Since two years ago, she has gradually regained consciousness.
When she first woke up, she almost committed suicide.
The things Xu Fei did made her feel nauseous and want to vomit whenever she thought about them.
But, besides wanting to die, she was still unwilling to give up!
I can't accept why, as they are all members of the Xu family, and it was clearly Xu Fei's fault, but the whole family tacitly sacrificed her.
Even after Xu Fei became infertile, he still tried to force her, who had gone crazy, to give Xu Fei a child to continue the Xu family's bloodline.
She really couldn't understand, is incense so important?
Is it true that their Xu family has an heir to the throne?
However, when she thought of Xu Mingxuan's origins and knew that the person was Sun Shan, she felt somewhat fortunate.
In the remaining memory, Sun Shan kept saying sorry that night, his movements were gentle, and his eyes were even red.
Xu Yue knew that if it wasn’t Sun Shan, there must be someone else.
In comparison, she would rather be Sun Shan. At least over the years, she could feel Sun Shan's love for her.
Although, she didn't know why Sun Shan loved her.
Can people who are bullied also develop feelings for the bullies?
Xu Yue suddenly didn't want Sun Shan to know that she had recovered her memory, so that she would always be the poor creature who pestered Sun Shan instead of the annoying person who did evil to him.
"It's itchy, I won't wipe it anymore! Brother Ashan, A Yue is sleepy and wants to sleep!"
Xu Yue thought about it, and spoke softly in her usual tone, rubbing her eyes with her hands while doing so, looking like she was very sleepy.
Sun Shan paused with the towel in his hand, then put it down, picked up Xu Yue, put her on the bed, and covered her tightly with a quilt.
"Go to sleep if you're tired!"
"Brother Ashan, come up here too! Can you sleep with Ayue?"
Sun Shan still didn't say anything, but just put her outstretched hand back.
