Lu Xiaomian cleverly changed the topic, bypassing it, and started talking about sothing else.
Su Li was chatting while holding her phone. She walked to the balcony and looked not far away, sowhat surprised to find... the lights in Feng Huaijin’s CEO office were off.
Not staying up late for the project today?
After being betrayed by Li Hang last ti, the project information wasn’t leaked, so the project continued. Feng Huaijin wanted to finish it before the New Year, so Su Li often saw him working overti. Unexpectedly, he left work so early today?

The security guard looked at Feng Huaijin with a worried face and asked, "Mr. Feng, are you okay? You look really pale."
Feng Huaijin was cold all over. He barely managed to finish his work today; the rest of the ti his mind was muddled, or his head was filled with crazy images of that kid disappearing in a terrifying scene.
In his free ti, he read so supernatural novels sent by Xiao Heng, and he was scared out of his wits.
Those damn authors, who knows where they learned such things, wrote so realistically, the scene descriptions were extrely frightening, with all kinds of Feng Shui Xuan Skills theories at hand, as if it was happening right beside him.
Feng Huaijin stared straight at the empty trunk of his car.
Feng Huaijin pressed his brow and took out his phone to call a chauffeur.
Forget it, sitting alone in the car, he always felt a bit unsafe, didn’t he?
Feng Huaijin was in a daze as the chauffeur drove him ho; once inside the villa, he felt it was eerily empty.
Feng Huaijin looked at the butler and said, "Butler, why is the house so empty? No one? It’s so lifeless."
The servants? Have they all gone ho? Didn’t he pay them salaries?
What’s going on?
The butler, who was wiping his glasses, suddenly raised his eyes. The lenses refracted the light, and he looked at Feng Huaijin with a gleam in his eyes.
Feng Huaijin saw the strange but slightly excited look in the butler’s eyes, suddenly didn’t want to ask anymore, got up quickly, and returned to his room.
The butler elder imdiately excitedly took out his phone to call Feng Huaijin’s grandparents, saying with exuberance, "Sir, you wouldn’t believe it, our young master is starting to think about settling down!"
Settling down?!
The elderly couple were thrilled to hear this. Feng Huaijin, that playboy, was actually thinking about settling down? Could it be because of that girl last ti?
"Really?"
The butler elder danced with excitent, his facial features trembling, "Isn’t it true? Just now when the young master ca ho, he looked around and said the house was empty and lifeless. Isn’t this hinting that the ho lacks a female hostess? Needs soone new to move in!"
The couple agreed that it really seed so.
Isn’t this just implying that he wants to settle down and have a female hostess move into the house?
He finally figured it out!
The butler elder and the couple were chatting so delightfully that they forgot to remind the young master about the water shut-off for pipe maintenance happening later...
Feng Huaijin had no idea what the butler elder was thinking. He pulled off his tie and went to take a shower.
Halfway through his shower, the water stopped.
Feng Huaijin looked up at the showerhead, which wasn’t releasing water, his whole body went cold, and he recalled the supernatural story he read today.
The male protagonist was showering and discovered the water from the showerhead turned into blood. When he looked up, there was a woman in red laughing maniacally above him.
Feng Huaijin was so startled he didn’t even dry off, quickly wrapped himself in a bathrobe, and rushed out of the bathroom, collapsing onto the bed hugging the two-ter-tall human-shaped bear plushie that Su Li had given him previously.
He picked up his phone and called Su Li.
Su Li: "...Hello?"
A weak, hoarse voice ca from the other side: "Su Li... I, I’m a bit scared."
