In England, in a private mansion near Hastings East Hill Park, a party has just been held. The unfinished men and women began to slowly disperse. It was already 10:10 a.m.

In the basement of the mansion, there is a private living room. Aside from the owner of the house, not many people seem to know about its existence.

A middle-aged man sat on the sofa in the center of the living room. Short dark brown hair, somewhat naturally curled, with a hairline that formed a perfect arc six or seven centimeters from his eyebrows. A pair of blue eyes, looking a little gloomy. With a melon seed face, a hooked nose, thin lips and a miserable white complexion, it looks a little unearthly.

He rested his left elbow on the arm of the couch, palm propping his cheek. Holding the red wine glass in his right hand, he shook the red liquid in the glass lightly and drank it into his mouth. Eyes shine brighter.

The man handed the cup to the woman who had been kneeling in front of him. The woman took the cup and still didn't get up. It's like waiting for an order or a punishment.

After wiping the red liquid from the corners of his mouth with his hand, the man smiled softly and said in an authentic London accent: "Honey, look me in the eye and tell me how long Miss Jessie has been gone?" weishenme only told me on such a haode day today? Ruined my mood. ”

"Hosts, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. You know that none of us can control Miss Jessie but you, our master. The kneeling woman's voice trembled as she spoke. She paused, tried her best to control her fear, and then replied, "Miss Jessie has been gone for more than three months, and we dare not tell you for fear of drawing the wrath of your master. ”

For this handsome man, today is not a big haode day, on the contrary, this day makes him angry, and this day is the same every year. The world calls this day Christmas. Many people, including the woman in front of her, knew that this man would be extremely crazy on this day. They are afraid, afraid that the master in their mouth will make them disappear on this shijie in an instant. So on this day of the year, there is nothing particularly important, they will not show up.

But this year is different, this year's day is not only Christmas, but also the day of the man's engagement to Miss Jessie, whom he is talking about. Miss Jessie never agreed, though. The man put the engagement on this day, just to make the day he hated something interesting. Each subsequent year can be less gloomy. (It's a bit perverted, it's like who's fucking okay and puts the day of marriage to his wife on the day of his parents' death.) ）

The man covered his face with both hands and wiped it down, put down his stilted legs, and stood up. He took a step forward, got closer to the woman in front of him, bent down and hooked the woman's chin with his fingers, and said in the same gentle way: "I have already told you, let you look me in the eye and answer." ”

The woman's whole body tightened, and she immediately looked into the eyes of the man in front of her and said, "Yes, master." We've sent somebody, and we've got track of Miss Jessie's whereabouts. Please host give us some more time. We'll be sure to bring Miss Jessie back safely. ”

The man was still smiling, though his face twitched a little. His voice began to turn cold and asked, "I didn't give you enough time?" It's been three months, and not only have you not reported it to me, but you haven't even brought anyone back. Now that he knows that the mistakes he has made are difficult to make up, why did Weishenme let Jessie leave in the first place? ”

The woman's spirit was close to collapse, her whole body was weak, and she simply sat down on the carpet, and her tears couldn't stop falling.

The man's patience seems to have run out, and he is no longer in the mood to see the woman in front of him crying. He raised his hand, and the back of his hand, which was originally pale and delicate, suddenly burst into green tendons, and the nails of his five fingers suddenly grew a centimeter or two, and he grabbed the top of the woman's head with a "bang". The palm of the hand stopped a fraction of a second above the woman's head.

He hesitated suddenly, and there was a slight struggle in his heart. Eventually, he withdrew his hand behind his back and put it on his back. The grim color on his face was gone, replaced by the gentleness that a gentleman should have. He said unhurriedly, "Dear Miss Minaya, it was I who was bad enough to frighten you. ”

The man lifted the woman Minaya from the ground with both hands, sat her down on the couch, and took the wine glass from her hand and placed it on the bar at the end of the room.

To say that Minaya was frightened at first, then the master's current attitude is a little confusing to her. She should be the one who knows her master's temper best of all the master's servants. She really didn't want to tell her master about this on this special day, because after saying it, it would definitely be a dead end. But with the most faithful attitude to her master, she must say even if she dies. But the result was not what she expected. The owner was obviously ready to kill him, but Weishenme temporarily changed his mind? Or does the owner like to play a game of cat and mouse?

One problem after another plagued Minaya at the same time, leaving her with no master.

The man sat down next to Minaya and pulled the hand that was clenching the hem of her skirt from her lap and held it in the palm of his hand. Asked softly, "Do you remember how many years you have been with me?" ”

Minaya bowed her head slightly and replied, "Yes, master, I remember." ”

"Speaking of which, you followed me a lot earlier than Jessie. The world says that we are cold-blooded, are we really ruthless? It's a bit reluctant for me to end your life. Even if I want to kill you, what's the point of me saving you in the first place? The man seemed to be reminiscing about the past.

When Minaya heard the man say this, she immediately got up from the sofa and said, "If it wasn't for the master who saved me from dying, I would have been dead a long time ago. From that day on, my life, everything I have already belonged to the master. I will do whatever the master tells me to do. This time it was our negligence. Miss Jessie's whereabouts are now in our hands, and the host has given us some time. I'm ready to go over and get Miss Jessie back in a short time. ”

The man shook his finger and said, "After so many years, don't you know Jessie's abilities?" Even if you weren't negligent, you wouldn't be able to keep her. You should be glad that she avoids you, or you won't be alive to see me. ”

Minaya stopped talking, and the man asked her, "Where did you say she went?" ”

"Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China."

Hearing Minaya say this, the man smiled and said, "Since I met her, she will go back to China every once in a while. It was the place where my father had brought her back, and I had never followed her, let alone stopped her. But this time, she missed our engagement ceremony in order to go back to China. ”

Although the man was calm, Minaya could hear his anger and did not dare to answer. The man continued: "I heard that the ancient country is very mysterious, and I don't know where the mystery is. It seems that I should know something about the customs, history and culture of this country. Dear Minaya, you should prepare and go to China in these two days. Follow Jessie and try not to let her find out. Don't get into a conflict if you find out, because she'll be your mistress in no time. Of course I don't want to see her destroy you, my right-hand man. ”

The man paused and continued: "I think the focus of our lives for the next period of time will be in China, inform the members of the foundation to prepare funds, and we will make a lot of money there, which will be regarded as Jessie's dowry." ”

"Understood, master." Minaya respectfully agreed.

The man's blue eyes rolled and said, "There is one more thing, before you leave, inform the Romanian people that the wedding time has been postponed indefinitely." Also, tonight's engagement party will be canceled! ”

Just then, the door to this hidden parlor opened. Minaya vanished from the couch and was in front of her master in the blink of an eye. Vigilantly looked at a blonde woman with blue eyes and a low-cut evening dress who walked in from outside the gate.

When she entered the door, she saw the man standing behind Minaya, and after pushing Minaya away, she staggered left and right and threw herself into the man's arms. She was drunk and said to the man with some slurred words, "Enoch, my love, why are you hiding here?" Don't you know that as the owner of a house, not attending dinners and parties is not a gentleman's behavior? ”

Ignoring the shock shown by the man named Enoch, she rose from the man's arms and began to make her rounds of the parlor. The high heels under your feet are bent to the left and the right to the right. If someone else sees it, they won't hesitate to rush up to support her, and maybe there will be a beautiful encounter. But the man and the woman in this room don't think so.

The man walked to the door and closed the door to his room. After leaning against the door, he took out a pair of gloves from his trouser pocket and put them on his hands, and asked nonchalantly, "How did you find this place?" ”

The woman stopped and sneered, "My dear Enoch, you are hard to find here. By the way, how did I find here? She patted her head vigorously and said, "I can't remember, why can't I?" ”

The man walked up to the woman, put his hands on the woman's shoulders and asked, "Does anyone know that you are here?" ”

The woman reached out and stroked the face of the man in front of her, what a perfect man, she said softly: "The people have long since dispersed, I came for you, but I have not seen you since I came." I already have the urge to die. I drank so much until there was no one in the house, how could anyone know that I could be in the same room with the famous Mr. Enoch? ”

The man let go of his hands, then turned and walked towards the door. He opened the door, didn't look back, and said to Minaya, "She should be my breakfast for you, but remember to clean it!" ”

He smiled coldly, walked out of the living room, and closed the door. Then a brief scream came from the room, as if it were a hallucination.
