Chapter 407: A Room
"Why can't it be her?"
I raised my eyebrows, it seems that we still missed important information about this Xu family before, and now that we have entered the door, we want to find out some unknown secrets but there is no trace.
Ye Dingxi saw through my careful thoughts at a glance, and then said with a smile: "Now you understand the reason why we stayed to eat?"
Originally......
"You guy, you're so cunning!" I pursed my lips, but I didn't hide the curvature of the corners of my mouth.
At this time, Hua Quan asked again: "Lord, there should still be some time before lunch, although Mrs. Xu didn't let us move around at will just now, but since we are guests, we must not be confined to the study, right?"
"Since I'm a guest, it's good to visit. ”
Ye Dingxi followed her words and nodded solemnly.
Zhu Yan also said: "Taking a walk before meals is conducive to opening up the appetite. ”
I squinted at the tacit cooperation of the three of them, and couldn't help but roll my eyes in my heart.
Sure enough, it's not a family that doesn't enter the door, and this one is not pure water in the stomach!

When we came out of the study, the corridor was empty, and I thought that since Mrs. Xu was wary of us, she should find two servants to keep an eye on the door.
Who knows, she didn't seem to be afraid that we would come out at all.
"Lord, Zhu Yan and I will go for a walk in the garden. ”
Hua Quan followed the discussed plan and walked downstairs with Zhu Yan.
Ye Dingxi took me to continue walking slowly along the corridor, as if I was walking, unhurried, and while walking, I admired the collection of paintings on the wall, whether Chinese or Western, beautiful or abstract.
"I didn't expect Xu Yayun to be a vassal and elegant person. I frowned, "It's a pity that I don't have any appreciation ability, and my level is very average......"
Regarding art, I must be a ghost shortcoming, but over the years in the underworld, I have also seen a lot of his old man's treasures in the treasure house of the old Hades, among which there are many fairy handwritings on the heavenly palace, which is a pair of ink landscapes, which are also charming.
Now looking at the various messy works, I only feel that my brain hurts.
Xu Yayun is a businessman, so he will not miss this investment trend, but unfortunately his vision is not good, and the paintings he bought back have no investment value, but I am afraid that they will all have to be smashed in their own hands in a few years. Ye Dingxi looked away from a painting with an expressionless face, and analyzed it very casually.
"Do you have a collection too?" I asked, with a sudden interest.
Ye Dingxi's eyes flashed, and he shook his head and said, "No, I'm not interested in paintings." ”
Not interested?
When I was in the East China Sea before, I saw that he and Zhu Yan were very familiar with Chen Rong's dragon paintings, and Ye Dingxi seemed to know a lot about paintings, so why wasn't he interested in them now?
Because it was in Xu's house, I didn't think much about it, and followed him to continue 'walking', passing by the doors of each room in Xu's house.
Finally, when we walked around the corridor on the second floor and reached the third floor, we heard a movement coming from a room.
It was like a woman's crying, and there was a suppressed sob.
"Go check it out. ”
Ye Dingxi gave me a look.
I nodded to myself and quietly tiptoed to follow him to the closed door.
In the house, if the sound seems to come out, it is difficult to hear it even if you stand in front of the door, Ye Dingxi and I looked around first, and only after finding no monitoring equipment, did we get closer.
But even so, only intermittent cries could be heard.
"Why don't I go in and have a look?" I gestured and said to Ye Dingxi with my lips.
He hesitated, nodded, and replied, "Be careful, run out if anything." ”
Well.
I responded, and gently floated out of Bai Bingyang's body, the guy's body was weak, and he fell into Ye Dingxi's arms, his eyes flashed, as if he was awake, and before he could shout, he was covered by Ye Dingxi's mouth.
I forced a laugh and floated through the door.
I have been drinking the tonic of the digested tapir for several days, and although I still can't walk away from the **, I can still float for a short time.
When I entered the door, I subconsciously thought about finding a living creature to cling to, so as not to be
As soon as the wind blew, I scattered the remnants of the weak wind, but fortunately there was a half-human-high flower pot at the entrance, and the rich bamboo in it was growing just right, and the emerald green branches and leaves were very lush.
It wasn't until I got in that I started to look around.
The Chinese-style bedroom is also decorated with a lot of golden decorations, and this time I paid special attention to those accessories, as expected, they also hide the way of feng shui, but the yin and yang are not reversed.
In the center, there is a large mahogany bed, the dark red bedding looks a little weird, and the figure lying upright on the bed is not who Xu Yayun is.
But there was still a man sitting next to the bed.
Mrs. Xu leaned against the edge of the bed, sitting in her wheelchair, holding a small bowl in her hand, and the medicinal soup in it was still emitting a faint heat.
I'm also curious about why she is not good at what she does.
"Old Xu, ......"
Mrs. Xu lowered her eyebrows slightly, her slender fingers pinched the white porcelain spoon, and she stirred the reddish-brown decoction for a while, and said in a faint voice: "How about lying on the bed and not moving?"
“......”
How could Xu Yayun answer her, being tossed by the Dream Eater Tapir, coupled with Ning Meng's fright, his symptoms are very similar to a stroke, basically except for the consciousness still exists, the body is in a state of stiffness and paralysis, even if he wants to move his fingers, it is impossible.
Only the eyes can be opened and closed.
He lay flat on his back, his head tilted slightly to the side, just enough for him to see his wife sitting in front of him.
Because his face was also stiff, there was no expression at all, only those big eyes blinked and moved, as if this was the only way to prove that he was still alive.
Mrs. Xu didn't look up, she was still very focused on stirring the decoction, "I know, you have a lot to say, are you blaming me, using witchcraft to destroy you, or are you hating me for making you look like this?"
"If you weren't paralyzed, you should have announced my death today, wouldn't you? You're always so cruel to me, aren't you?"
She stopped suddenly, the porcelain spoon leaned against the bowl and made a soft sound, and Mrs. Xu slowly raised her head, and the heavy hatred and resentment in her eyes turned into a biting chill, "Old Xu, do you know? Seeing you like this now, I am simply ...... It's so fun!"
