Situ Guduan looked at Edward calmly and said, "You are getting better at lying now."

Edward thought about it for a long time, let's just think that the young master's words are a compliment to him...

Situ Guduan's original plan was to return to the company in the afternoon.

Because now, he has a very important person who has to meet.

With his hands behind his back, Situ Guduan stood in front of a white villa with simple European decoration.

The decoration of the villa is very simple, and it is the most appropriate to describe it as simple but not simple.

A large field of purple verbena is planted in front of the villa.The roads leading to the villa are all cut out from the middle of the verbena.The pure purple is so beautiful that it makes people feel relaxed and happy, and it seems to make people have a mysterious yearning.

The top of the white villa is covered with creepers, and even the pond in front of the villa is slowly filled with pure yellow leaves. It is hard to imagine what kind of personality the owner of the villa has.

Edward stood beside Situ Guduan, and asked respectfully: "Master, are you knocking on the door?"

"No, wait a little longer." Situ Gu Duan's voice came faintly.

Now that Situ Guduan had already spoken, Edward naturally didn't say much, but nodded and continued to stand beside Situ Guduan respectfully.

The people in this villa are probably the ones who can't open the door even if they knock, so knocking is useless.

Situ Guduan turned around and walked to the car.

About half an hour later, Edward's cell phone rang again.

Edward glanced at the caller ID, then said to Situ Guduan, "It's Young Madam."

"Take it!" Situ Gu Duan's indifferent voice came from behind.

After receiving the order, Edward pressed the answer button.

However, the phone has just been connected, and before the voice of Xi Manqing on the other end of the phone can be heard, the call is cut off by Xi Manqing on the other end.

Edward looked at the disconnected phone in some bewilderment, and frowned at Situ Guduan.

"What?" Situ Gu Duan closed his eyes slightly, his tone sounded neither arrogant nor impatient, very calm, as if the whole matter had nothing to do with him.

Edward handed the hung up phone to Situ Guduan, and said, "Young Madam, hang up first."

"Dial back." Situ Gu Duan suddenly opened his eyes, his tone sounded a little cold.

Edward naturally did not dare to neglect, and immediately found Xi Manqing's phone number again and began to call back.

However, the phone always shows that there is no answer.

Edward dialed two or three times, but the other party did not intend to answer.Finally simply shut down.

Edward looked at Situ Guduan with some doubts: "Master, why don't you call An Xiaoqi?"

Situ Guduan just glanced at Edward coldly. Edward had been with Situ Guduan for so many years, so he understood it with just one look.

So he quickly dialed An Xiaoqi's number.

The call was connected, that's right, but it wasn't An Xiaoqi's voice that came from the other end of the phone, but An Xiaoliu's lazy voice: "Hello, handsome Edward? What do you want from our Xiaoqi?" ? Xiao Qi is not here?"

"Where are the Seven Annies?" Edward asked.

As soon as An Xiaoliu heard that Edward's tone was a bit serious, she quickly put away her joking attitude, and said to Edward seriously: "Our Xiaoqi has gone out. The young lady personally made lunch and said it would be delivered to Master Situ. Go to the company. So Xiao Qi is responsible for escorting the young lady to the company along the way. But Xiao Qi was too anxious when she went out, so she forgot to bring her mobile phone. Do you have anything to do with our Xiao Qi?"

"Go to the company immediately, and do everything possible to contact An Xiaoqi and find out the whereabouts of the young lady." Edward's order came from the other end of the phone.

Edward's speech is equivalent to Situ Guduan's order.An Xiaoliu naturally didn't dare to neglect.

So it is not advisable to rush over worryingly, even forgetting to put on the coat.

Edward hung up the phone and reported the situation to Situ Guduan who was sitting in the back seat.

If Xi Manqing went to the company but didn't answer the phone, then there are only two possibilities. One possibility is to give yourself a surprise, and the other possibility is...

If Xi Manqing falls into Mu Xi's hands now, even if Mu Xi doesn't take the initiative now, she will definitely contact her in a while.

So Situ Guduan didn't show too much worry, because at least Xi Manqing is safe so far.

However, the child in Xi Manqing's belly...

Situ Guduan suddenly opened the car door and walked out.

Edward, who didn't know why, had to quickly open the car door to keep up.

Didn't you just say you didn't want to ring the doorbell?

As a result, Situ Gu Duan looked at Edward in a blink of an eye and said, "Go and knock on the door."

Edward never questioned Situ Guduan's decision, so when Situ Guduan asked him to go up and knock on the door, Edward went up and knocked on the door decisively.

The sound of the doorbell was harsh, at least Edward believed that such a sound would not be used as the sound of the doorbell in a normal family.

But the sound of the doorbell sounded very abruptly, making Edward feel that the sound of the doorbell matched the appearance of the European-style villa.

Sure enough, as Situ Guduan expected, the sound of the doorbell was harsh enough.And it kept ringing non-stop, but the people inside had no intention of coming out to open the door.

Edward looked back at Situ Guduan behind him with some uncertainty: "Master..."

"Keep pressing." Situ Guduan said expressionlessly.

Edward could only continue ringing the doorbell according to Situ Guduan's instructions.

But after about two or three minutes, there was still no sound of footsteps inside.

Edward looked back at Situ Guduan: "Master, maybe my information is wrong, maybe there is no one inside."

Just as Edward finished speaking, he began to doubt his ability to investigate, but he heard Situ Guduan suddenly say to himself: "Slam the door."

Those two simple words are simply domineering.

Edward basically suspected that he had auditory hallucinations.

Although Master Situ was overbearing, it was true that most of the people who smashed it were his own doors. If he remembered correctly, they should have asked for someone from inside when they came here this time, but why did they smash the door when they came up?

This is simply not the young master's style.

When Edward was hesitating, Situ Guduan gave him a cold look: "Edward, when did you start to doubt my prestige?"

Edward shut up, yes, he never doubted the prestige of the young master.

So Edward turned around and walked towards the car, then took out a pistol from inside, and aimed it directly at the doorknob of the gate.

Of course, Situ Guduan's so-called smashing the door did not mean that Edward really smashed the door. Besides, he also thought that he was just a human body, how could he smash through the iron-walled gate.

The sound of the silenced gun was not loud, but the momentum of the door smashing was earth-shattering.

It would be fine if there was no one in the villa, but if there were indeed people, then no matter what, they must have been frightened now, and there was no reason not to come out.

While Edward was thinking this way, Situ Guduan had already kicked the door open with one kick.

These things are done by someone on weekdays, so it is impossible for Master Situ to do it himself, but it is rare to see Master Situ do it himself, Edward also knows that this matter is not as simple as he imagined.

Situ Guduan has already walked in the direction of the room with his long legs.

Edward followed without hesitation.

Edward originally thought that the outside of the villa was eerie and eerie enough, but he didn't expect that the inside was even more eerie than the outside.

All the light-transmitting places around the entire villa have been sealed up with wooden strips, and the sunlight outside can't get in at all.

The space in the house seems to be isolated from the world, and the temperature of the air conditioner is turned on very low.

Walking in like this suddenly, it feels like walking into the underworld.

The hairs all around stood on end in an instant.

Edward reached out his hand to turn on the light in the usual place, but he couldn't touch the switch, but touched the cold wall, which was bitingly cold.

Taking a deep breath, Edward stretched out his hand, then took out a small universal flashlight from his pocket, and illuminated the way for Situ Guduan to enter the villa.

The gloomy cold air in the villa was even worse, gradually making it difficult to breathe.

But fortunately, there is no rotten and rotten smell in the room as imagined, instead, there is a faint fragrance of green tea, which makes people feel a lot better.

Just when Edward started to look around the whole room, he suddenly heard Situ Guduan's cold voice from beside him: "Turn off the light."

Although Edward really didn't want to turn it off, he turned off the flashlight obediently.

Just when the optical fibers in the whole room disappeared in an instant, all the lights in the room turned on with a bang, all of them turned on.

Even a person like Edward who has seen strong winds and waves couldn't help but tremble for a while. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time. When he did, he ran to Situ Guduan immediately to protect Situ Gu Duan took a step back.

Situ Guduan frowned, what made Edward follow him?I suddenly felt that I made a wrong decision back then...

Suddenly there was muffled laughter in the house.

Edward subconsciously asked, "Who?"

"Young Master Situ is here, and you're definitely on airs." A low-pitched male voice sounded a bit gloomy, as if it came from the sky, making it unreal.

I don't know if it's because the whole room has been dark for too long, but Edward feels that the lights are a bit glaring at this moment.

Since the visitor knows the name of Master Situ, it proves that this is probably the person the Master is looking for.

Only then did Edward retreat behind Situ Guduan.
