C195 Leave

Xiao Qinghan also agreed. After all, he had been wary of Ling Muxue because he was afraid that she would do something, but recently, she had been very satisfied with Ling Muxue's performance. Whatever she wanted to do, it would naturally be up to her.

"Then I'll hang up now!"

Xiao Qinghan was not satisfied and said, "As a wife, shouldn't you be concerned about what your husband is doing now?"

At this moment, Qin Feng, who was driving in front of them, could no longer describe what was going on in his heart. Was he still the cold and overbearing, unreasonable CEO? How did he suddenly become like a child and start to act like a spoiled brat?

Ling Muxue wanted to argue with him, but in the end, she lowered her voice and asked with concern, "Then what are you doing now?"

"I'm on the phone with my wife right now!"

"You're so bored! If there's nothing else, I'll really hang up."

"Even if there's nothing else, doesn't your wife want to hear my voice?" His tone sounded like he was wronged.

"What's so nice about your voice? It's not like I've never heard it before."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the door being opened came from the other side, followed by a voice full of respect.

"Have you got off the car?"

"Yes!"

"Where are you going? When will you be back?"

"My wife, you finally care about me. I'll be back in five days at most. Be good and wait for me at home. I'm on the plane now. Bye-bye, my wife!"

Just as she was about to end the call, Ling Muxue hurriedly called out, "Wait..."

Xiao Qinghan chuckled like a fox, "Why is my wife so reluctant to part with me?"

Ling Muxue was stunned for two seconds. Her heart felt as if it was being fiercely grabbed by a palm. It was very uncomfortable.

Xiao Qinghan seemed to have noticed something and stopped in his tracks. "Xue'er, what's wrong?"

"No... Nothing!" Ling Muxue quickly came back to her senses. "I'm fine. You should remember to eat on time. Don't drink too much, light up your cigarette, and don't tire yourself out. Take care of yourself!"

A happy low laughter sounded, "I know, wife. For the sake of our child, I don't think I will drink and smoke... Alright, baby, I'm hanging up!"

After hanging up the phone, Ling Muxue felt as if her soul had been sucked out of her body. She held the phone in her hand and her eyes were empty. She stared blankly in front of her.

The cold wind was bleak. The withered yellow leaves fluttered in the wind. She didn't know where they were going to drift to.

In the bedroom, with simple packing and a change of clothes, he was dressed simply, and for the convenience of his movements, except for warm jeans, a sweater, a coat, and a trench coat, and the pistol in the undergarment pocket of the trench coat.

At this moment, a maid came in with a cup of black tea. She did not greet Ling Muxue respectfully when she came in. Instead, she looked at Ling Muxue coldly and placed the cup of black tea on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

Ling Muxue sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the servant in a maid's uniform. From the way she walked, it could be seen that she had also practiced putting on airs before. "How are you going to take me out?"

The servant turned around to look at Ling Muxue. His serious expression made it seem like he was not easy to get along with.

"Miss Ling, pack your things. I will be waiting for you under the sycamore tree in the backyard tonight at eight o'clock. Remember, you can't bring your cell phone with you. There is a locator inside." After saying that, the servant strode out of the bedroom.

Ling Muxue looked at her back and was still confused. How was she going to bring her out of this tightly guarded manor?

At eight o'clock at night, Ling Muxue went to the sycamore tree in the backyard by herself. The servant was already waiting for her.

The servant skillfully led Ling Muxue away from the guards. It was clear that she was very familiar with the route.

Suddenly, he started to worry in his heart. Would Rorai's men do anything to harm Xiao Qinghan if they entered the manor? But there was no use worrying about it now. From Rorai's attitude towards Xiao Qinghan, he didn't think that Rorai would dare to do anything to him.

She could already imagine how furious Xiao Qinghan would be when he came back and saw that she was no longer at the manor.

Thinking about his angry and manic appearance, she really felt uncomfortable.

He followed the servant into a large, deserted study in the castle's back yard. The servant flipped through the books on the bookshelves, and the wooden floor opened with a whirring sound, and the sound of the wind rose from beneath the floor.

Ling Muxue's eyes widened as she looked at the maid with vigilance. "How did you know there was a secret passage here?"

It could be seen that she was very familiar with the terrain here.

"You don't need to know. If you don't want to be discovered, hurry up and follow me!" As she spoke, the maid walked down the stone stairs.

Ling Muxue was stunned for two seconds, then she turned on the flashlight and followed her.

The dark corridor was dark and there was no light at all. The cold air made Ling Muxue feel a little uncomfortable. Her heart was still inexplicably filled with fear, and her hands and feet were extremely cold. One of her hands was tightly holding the pistol in her coat pockets.

Through the flashlight, she looked at the back of the maid in front of her. She walked without the slightest bit of fear as if it was a normal thing.

The further he walked, the clearer the sound of flowing water got. He turned the corner and saw a river flowing forward.

Suddenly, the maid stopped in her tracks. Ling Muxue was startled and looked at her warily. The maid turned around and said, "Follow this river and you will be outside in less than ten minutes. There will be no boatman to pick you up."

"What about you?"

"I need to go back now. If I leave for too long, I will be discovered."

As she spoke, she walked around Ling Muxue and turned around to walk back. Ling Muxue turned around and looked at her back but she could not see anything strange. Only after her back disappeared into the darkness for a long time did Ling Muxue continue to walk forward. From time to time, she would turn around to check to see if she had followed her. Since she did not harm herself now, it was hard to say whether she would be able to get out or not.

It was pitch black, and she could only hear the sound of the water flowing. She was really scared, an indescribable fear, and the image of Xiao Qinghan kept flashing through her mind. How she wanted to throw herself into his arms and feel the warmth of his body, but it was impossible, and when she thought of this, she couldn't help but cry.

At some point, she found herself a Weeper.

After walking for about ten minutes, the whistling sound of the cold wind got louder and louder, the width of the waterway became wider, and the sound of the flowing water became more and more intense.

When she turned the corner, she saw a very big cave entrance. A gust of cold wind blew over, and Ling Muxue could not help but shiver.

She walked over and saw a small boat parked not far away. It was probably because the boat saw the light from Ling Muxue's flashlight, so it glided over.

She didn't know if it was just Ling Muxue's imagination or something else, but she felt a bad premonition. Slowly, she took out the pistol from the pocket of her windbreaker and put it in the pocket of her jeans. With one hand in her pocket, she held the pistol. The windbreaker covered her hand, so nothing could be seen out of the ordinary.
