It was a note, pressed under a glass with half of the glass she had left to drink. She remembered very well that when she put the water cup on the bedside table before, there must not have been this note.

So, how could there be this note now?

With doubts, Cao Wanting took out the note and looked at it, her eyes trembling slightly.

I saw a row of words cut out from a printed newspaper glued to the note, arranged into a warning: If you don't want to die a miserable death like that cat, leave City B quickly!

She was shocked, and the note in her hand fell to the ground, and then immediately jumped away from the place where the note fell a few meters away.

Suddenly, a deep sense of fear swept through her body, and a chill suddenly crept up her back, and her shoulders trembled when she covered her mouth with both hands......

At this moment, the mobile phone casually thrown on the bed rang, and she was frightened again, and sat down on the sofa behind her.

Rong Ye on the other end of the phone had just taken a shower, and when he came out of the bathroom, he found that Cao Wanting had sent a message, "Really?" Can you sue me, what's the matter? ”

So, it completely broke his sleepiness. He simply sat down on a chaise longue by the floor-to-ceiling window in his bathrobe and called her.

He couldn't wait to hear her voice......

However, no one answered on the other end of the phone for a long time, Rong Ye felt strange, could it be because he was taking a bath so he didn't hear it? After thinking about it, he hung up the phone.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Cao Wanting called.

The corners of his lips hooked, and he answered the phone, but before he could speak, he heard Cao Wanting's slightly trembling voice coming from the microphone: "Rong, Rong Ye ......"

Rong Ye was stunned: "Cao Wanting, what's wrong with you?" ”

Cao Wanting whimpered, and then intermittently recounted what had just happened, and after listening to it, Rong Ye was taken aback, only saying that she was returning to her ancestral hometown to save her relatives, but she didn't expect so many unbelievable things to happen in just one day.

"And how are you doing now? Is it better? And what about my uncle, how is he? ”

After talking for a while, the love was slightly better, Cao Wanting sniffed and said: "Well, there are bodyguards watching, it should be nothing, it is estimated that it may be the child next door who is playing a prank, I was just scared ......"

The stone in Rong Ye's heart fell to the ground, "It's good to have bodyguards watching, it is estimated that it is also a prank made by children" After a pause, he said again, "If you still feel scared, I can talk with you for a while." ”

Cao Wanting was silent and noncommittal.

She didn't think that the dead cat incident was a prank by a child, and if it was, what about the note? It was clearly threatening her. But if the cat was deliberately done to intimidate and warn her, then who would it be?

She couldn't think of an answer, so she had to say "thank you".

Of course, Rong Ye also knew that things would not be so simple, saying that it was a child's prank, but he didn't want her to be too scared, he began to say something inconsequential without a match, and occasionally put in a joke or two, Cao Wanting just listened, and occasionally laughed.

This is the first time she has talked to a man on the phone, and she used to listen to her girlfriends talk about talking about talking to her boyfriend about talking on the phone, and she would always be despised by her, and she swore that she would never do such a boring thing.

But now, she was glad, glad that on such a restless night, there was a man who was willing to talk to her on the phone to dispel the fear in her heart......

His deep and clear voice came from the phone, lazy and magnetic, very comforting heart, Cao Wanting's flustered heart finally calmed down, and gradually felt a wave of sleepiness began to erode her brain......

Rong Ye was still chatting here, he was not a person with a lot of words, and this night he probably finished talking about all the topics he could talk about with a woman in his life.

Feeling a little thirsty, he took a sip of red wine to moisten his throat, and suddenly remembered the question she had just mentioned, so he said, "Cao Wanting, do you still want to know why I want to stay in the sea of clouds?" ”

No one responded in the microphone for a long time, Rong Ye frowned, and when he heard the sound of even and faint breathing coming from the microphone, he couldn't help but sigh.

She, unexpectedly, fell asleep......

After a pause, he hung up the phone, the shallow arc of his lips gradually curled, and two seconds later he dialed Liang Sheng's phone.

After a long time, Liang Sheng answered the phone, he frowned and struggled to open his eyelids, glanced at the clock on the wall, and found that the clock pointed at two o'clock in the middle of the night, he couldn't help but rub his temples and immediately complained.

"My young master Rong, don't you even look at the time when you call others? It's two o'clock in the morning! ”

Rong Ye didn't care about this, and said directly: "Liang Sheng, help me book a flight to City B tomorrow morning as soon as possible." ”

Liang Sheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly sobered up a lot: "City B? What do you do in City B? ”

"Don't worry about it, in short, book a ticket for me, I'm in a hurry." Afraid that Liang Sheng would not sleep awakely, Rong Ye added another sentence before hanging up the phone, "Hear clearly, order now, immediately!" Right away! ”

……

I don't know if it's because of the return to light, Cao Weiguo got up early the next morning and asked Cao Weilun and his daughter to be called to the main house.

Cao Wanting hadn't woken up yet, and what happened last night made her whole heart panic, and she chatted with Rong Ye until late, and she didn't know when she fell asleep.

Now, she couldn't even walk, and she couldn't help but yawn when she stepped into the threshold of the main house, but she was stunned as soon as she entered.

I saw that my grandfather Cao Weiguo seemed to be much more energetic than yesterday, sitting on the senior chair, his body was straight, holding a cane in his hand, full of majesty, and the sick old man in bed yesterday was completely different from two people.

After a closer look, her father Cao Weilun arrived a little before her, sitting on the mahogany chair on the left-hand side, and there was a strange middle-aged man in his fifties beside him, and the little aunt Cao Shuangshuang was standing next to her grandfather, and on the right hand sat the eldest uncle Cao Weiye's family of four.

Except for Shi Zhaoting, everyone's expressions were a little stern.

This battle naturally made her suspicious: what is this going to do?

She secretly cast an inquiring look at her father, Cao Weilun, who beckoned to her and said, "Wanting, come and see your grandfather." ”

She nodded and saluted dignifiedly: "Grandpa is good." ”

Grandpa coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "Well, sit down." ”

Sit? Where to sit?

She secretly glanced at Cao Weilun again, he glanced at her, motioned her to sit next to him, and Cao Wanting sat down next to Cao Weilun.

Cao Weiguo didn't seem to know anything about what happened last night, and no one mentioned what happened last night, and when she sat down, Cao Weiguo looked to the side and said, "Lawyer Zheng, let's start." ”
