Ye Ningwan felt a sense of unease and panic.
She hadn't felt this unsettled feeling for many years, as if a giant hand was watching her from behind, waiting for her to let her guard down so it could push her off a precipice and condemn her to eternal damnation.
She worked so hard, and she had already broken free from the shackles of fate and was living a life where she could control her own destiny, but now that feeling has returned.
Ye Ningwan felt inexplicably irritated.
But when fate pounces on her like a ferocious beast, she has no chance to resist and can only passively accept it.
She gritted her teeth and finally made her final decision.
Leaving this place first and preserving yourself is the most important thing.
The jade pendant is easy to deal with; even without it, one can still continue to investigate one's origins, it just takes a little more effort.
But if she really fell into Li Mochuan's hands, according to her investigation of Li Mochuan, this man was not someone to be trifled with. If Pei Fengzhi was a tiger, then Li Mochuan must be a lone wolf. Once he bit the prey's throat, he would bite it and refuse to let go until the prey under his fangs was completely suffocated and lost the ability to resist.
She came here on a mission to assassinate Li Mochuan. Who knows what those people will pry out of the magician after they capture him?
If the magician can't hold back and tells everything, wouldn't he be torn to pieces by Li Mochuan?
In situations like this, running is the priority.
Sometimes, once you've made up your mind, it's easy to give up other things.
Ye Ningwan wasn't too reluctant. She quickly restored the scene and then left Li Mochuan's room.
The only way she can leave now is to get out of here with the car.
Generally, supply trucks come and go from these kinds of estates every day. After all, such a large estate has at least dozens of people who need to eat, drink, and relieve themselves. Just the daily meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, fruits, and other supplies all need to be transported specially.
Especially since Li Mochuan lives here and there are other distinguished guests at the manor, we cannot be careless.
The food eaten by the masters in the Pei family's main residence is specially supplied food. It is not simply purchased from the market, but is delivered to their door daily through a special supply channel.
That would inevitably involve vehicles and people coming and going.
At that time, whether Ye Ningwan blends in with them or hides in the delivery truck, it will be a good choice.
As long as she can get away with it and leave the manor, she will be free to roam the world, and no one will be able to catch her again.
Ye Ningwan thought this way, and she did this way.
She remembered that the kitchen seemed to be located in...
...
As dawn broke on the horizon, a sliver of light appeared, and soon a beam of white light pierced through the layers of thick, heavy clouds in the hazy sky and fell down.
The entire estate was bathed in a soft, warm sunlight.
Daylight broke.
The sunlight sweeps away all the gloom and cannot hide even a trace of darkness; everything hidden will be clearly seen under the sunlight.
Li Mochuan had regained his composure, because he knew very well that the thief who had pointed a gun at his head and dropped a jade pendant with two dragons last night was not going to escape.
He always manages to catch her; it's just a matter of time.
So he slowly walked down to the secret room on the first basement level.
Coincidentally, just like the Pei family, a section of the basement floor of this manor was also converted into a blood-soaked torture chamber.
This place was originally used to discipline servants who made mistakes or were disobedient.
But today, the person locked up inside is an outsider.
As soon as Li Mochuan stepped down the stairs to the basement, he heard a series of shrill and tragic screams coming from the secret room. Even through the heavy soundproof door, some faint sounds still managed to leak out.
Li Mochuan walked towards that place at a leisurely pace.
Pushing open the heavy soundproof door, a stench of decay mixed with the pungent smell of blood assaulted my senses; the intense odor was enough to knock me off my feet.
But Li Mochuan's face showed no extra expression; he simply stared silently at the person who had been dropped onto the iron ring in the center of the room.
If at this moment, he can still be called a human being!
The cracking sound of the whip hitting flesh stopped as Li Mochuan arrived. A burly, shirtless man turned around and bowed respectfully to Li Mochuan.
"Mr. Li, this place is dirty, what brings you here?"
Li Mochuan closed the door, glanced coldly at the magician hanging in mid-air, and raised his chin.
"Did you confess?"
Upon hearing this, the shirtless burly man's expression darkened slightly, and he said helplessly to Li Mochuan.
"You're very stubborn, but don't worry, given enough time, there's no mouth in this world that can't be pried open!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mochuan frowned, finally fixing his cold gaze on the shirtless, muscular man, and questioned him with displeasure.
"It's been two hours since I handed the person over to you, and you haven't been able to get a single question out of me?"
The shirtless, burly man's face was unusually grim.
Actually, you can't really blame him, because for the first hour or so, this person was acting crazy, frantically asking for water, and you couldn't get anything out of him.
It wasn't until half an hour ago that this person gradually came to his senses. In fact, he had only been questioning him for a short half hour, so it was normal that he couldn't get anything out of him. After all, there are many people in this world who are tight-lipped.
