The swallow really cried. Crystal tears hung on the long, curved eyelashes, but refused to let them fall, pitiful and touching.

  "Swallow......" Qian Tao gritted his teeth, but was helpless. He looked around at the gazes gathered on Xia Yan's beautiful face. In the end, he could only stretch out his long arm and carry the beauty into his office.

  The swallow is still crying. Her mouth is flat and stubbornly refuses to shed tears. Standing like that, elegant and poised, it's heartbreaking.

  "Look, I feel so sorry for you... Don't cry, okay?" Qian Tao rubbed his palms together, but couldn't help it, and finally stared at Yan Zi. As he stared, his heart softened again - sigh, as a big man, he really couldn't bear to see such a beautiful woman in distress like this.

  Alas, who can tell him how to comfort a 25-year-old spoiled beauty... sigh...

  Who knew that after crying for a while, Swallow herself lifted her head, took tissues from the table and wiped her face, scolding Qian Tao: "What are you staring at? Can't you stop me from crying? You clearly know that when I cry, my brother will worry about my health. Are you Vice President Qian? Can't even handle such a small matter, how can you help my brother manage the company?"

  Qian Tao's face was slightly distorted, after going through a range of emotions from green to purple, he forced out a smile, "Miss Yanzi, you don't look bad even when crying. Besides, General Yong has always thought that Yanzi is not suited for melancholy, it's better to vent out any grievances..."

  "Disgusting!" Swallow snorted, flipping her big wavy hair, and walked away with her head held high.

  Qian Tao chased him out and carefully suggested: "Yanzi, big brother will introduce you to a boyfriend, next time when you're heartbroken, there'll be someone to comfort you."

  The swallow immediately stopped, turned sideways, tilted her head and asked seriously: "Like my brother? Not necessarily as handsome as my brother, but as reliable as my brother. I have no other talents, just good looks. So he has to tolerate me being coquettish, making trouble, not worrying about three meals a day, not caring how much time I spend dressing myself up, but properly praising my beauty. Hmm, that's all my conditions. Is there such a man? If so, I'll get married immediately like my brother and sister-in-law, and love him wholeheartedly..."

  Qian Tao remained silent for ten seconds, then shook his head decisively, his voice slightly unsettled. "Yanzi is still young, let her choose carefully."

  "You don't have to pretend, it's so hypocritical. I knew that in this world, there wouldn't be a good man like my brother...” Yanzhi wiped her nose and ignored Qiantao again, returning to the glass window of Rongqian's office. Wuuu, Brother doesn't have a sister-in-law, so lonely...

  It's not easy for a woman to cook for her brother, but she suddenly disappeared. She said she was traveling, who knows what happened.

  Brother won't tell her, then she can go find someone who will tell her.

  A flash of inspiration. The swallow flew out quickly.

  "Swallow, don't run out to play..." Qian Tao anxiously shouted. This girl is too innocent because of her weak body and has been protected by Rong Qian too well. But now Rong Qian has something on his mind and can't take care of this troublesome girl.

  "I'm not going home. I'm going to Oil Painting Street." The swallow's voice came from inside the elevator.

  What was she doing alone on Oil Painting Street? Oil Painting Street had already lost one, did she want to lose a second one too? Qian Tao followed her with regret, but when he reached the first floor, he only saw Yan Zi's beautiful red BMW speeding out of the Jinghua Gate.

  "Swallow..." shouting, Bao Ma has merged into the traffic flow.

  Good grief!

  Qian Tao patted his forehead and walked back upstairs again.

  BMW hadn't arrived at the Sunset Gallery yet, when Yanzi's car stopped. She quickly opened the door and angrily pulled Su Wei who was in Zhang Dama's gallery. Extremely angry, she gritted her teeth: "Su Wei, did you do this?"

  "Can't you just stop pulling and tugging? You're always so shameless, your mom really needs to teach you some manners." Shu Yu slapped away Yan Zi's hand, completely not knowing how to cherish and appreciate a woman.

  Swallow's face suddenly turned red, gritting her teeth: "Who wants to drag you around? I'm catching bad guys! Shu Yu, aren't you jealous of my sister-in-law? You can't stand that your brother is getting better and better with his wife, so you hid her away, didn't you?"

  "What did you say?" Shu Yu frowned.

  "Swallow's eyes turned red: 'I'm telling you, did you hide my sister-in-law? You're a man, how can you be so despicable? Since you couldn't compete with my brother fairly, you secretly snatched my sister-in-law away. I don't care, if you don't return my sister-in-law today, you're not allowed to leave. Waaah, my sister-in-law has been gone for two days.'"

  Shu Yu suddenly became anxious and grabbed her: "What did you say? Yunxue is gone? She's been missing for two days?"

  "Give me back my sister-in-law." Swallow was too lazy to explain, she just wanted her.

  "The prettier the woman, the dumber she is! You're really good at finding people —" Shu Yu pushed away the bottle and strode towards the Sunset Painting Corridor, only to emerge from it again in a short while.

  "Hey——" The swallow followed. But seeing Shu Yu was about to drive, she hastily blocked Shu Yu, "You're not allowed to run! Not allowed to escape guilty!"

  This little girl is really persistent, Shu Yu didn't want to bother with her, but he also didn't want to leave the beauty crying on Oil Painting Street, and then get into trouble again. After thinking for a moment, Shu Yu directly got into Yanzi's BMW driver's seat.

  "Hey, that's my car." Swallow's hands and feet were quick, immediately pulling open the car door and getting in. Grabbing hold of the steering wheel, she stared at Shu Yu.

  Shu Yu glared at her: "I'm not a fool, why are you glaring at me? A woman with just a pretty face is useless. You should learn from your sister-in-law, use your brain. Be clever when you need to be, act silly when you need to, pout when you need to, and listen when you need to. Only then will you have men wanting to marry you, men who care for you..."

  "Shut up!" - Xia Yan, the beauty

  Tang grabbed crazily, "If you don't shut up, I'll sue you for slander. Hmph!"

  What a troublesome girl! Shu Yu patted her face: "I'm doing it for your own good!"

  "I don't care!" Yanzhi muttered, "Anyway, there are no good men left in the world, I won't consider you. What nonsense are you spouting? You're really annoying. Whether I'm stupid or not has nothing to do with you, I just don't believe it. A beautiful, gentle and innocent girl like me will definitely have a man who loves her."

  One sentence shut Shu Yu's mouth, and he said awkwardly: "Let's go! This matter is probably related to Luo Shaofan."

  That's right, should find Luo Shaofan. The swallow was stunned and didn't make a sound, and Ren Shuyou stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward.

  "Recently, Luo Shaofan has been at the Longteng sales site." Yanzi reminded in a low voice.

  Three minutes later, the two entered the sales department of Longteng Garden.

  Soon a salesperson came up to greet them: "Are the two of you here to look at houses? Please follow me, I will serve you wholeheartedly. We have two-bedroom apartments suitable for families of three..."

  "Shut up!" The young lady's temper flared up, and she glared at the sales clerk.

  "We want to see your boss, Luo."

  The salesperson was taken aback, glancing at the two of them. Upon seeing Yanzi's delicate and refined appearance as a young lady from a wealthy family, and Shu Yu's unique temperament, he didn't dare to be slow in responding, and respectfully replied: "I'm sorry, our boss Luo is not here today. I heard he went to Singapore."

  "Singapore?" Shu Yu and Yan Zi exchanged a glance.

  "Yes, what's wrong?" The shop assistant stared at them strangely, seemingly not daring to offend them, and reminded, "However, Mrs. Luo is here today..."

  Before he had finished speaking, Swallow had already walked towards the largest office.

  Shu Yu was taken aback and quickly followed up.

  As soon as he saw Jiang Qiong, Yanzi opened the door and got straight to the point: "I'm Yanzi, my sister-in-law is Qiao Yunxue. Lady Luo, you were looking for my sister-in-law a few days ago, now she's gone missing, may I ask..."

  Jiang Qiong had seen many big waves, and with a glance at the young man, he didn't take him seriously: "The one who should be talking to me is Rong Changfeng. If not, it should be at least Rong Qian." After finishing speaking, he pressed the hands-free button, "Ba Quan, come in and have these two people escorted out for me."

  "You haven't answered me yet..." The swallow was anxious and refused to leave.

  Jiang Qiong calmly swept his gaze over Yanzi: "Since Rong Qian and Rong Changfeng have come to ask me personally, I will naturally respond."

  It turned out that Shu Yu saw that the woman in front of her was not easy to mess with, and pulled Yan Zi: "We are looking for Luo Shaofan, not her."

  As they spoke, two security guards had already entered, without saying a word, each grabbed one of them and dragged them out.

  "Who dares to touch Yanzi!" A faint yet fully authoritative voice came from the front hall.

  Jiang Qiong's hand holding the pen trembled and she stood up involuntarily.

  Across the glass, Jiang Qiong saw that Rong Ji's opposite, Yong Jian, was standing steadily in the sales hall, stretching out his hand to catch a swallow and scanning Jiang Qiong lightly.

  Jiang Qiong smiled faintly, put down her pen, and walked out with elegant steps: "So it's really Younger Sister Leng, I misunderstood, I thought it was some wild girl impersonating. The eldest young lady of the Rong family has always been elusive, no wonder I misunderstood. Hehe, Younger Sister Leng is indeed as beautiful as a flower, if only we had known earlier, our families should have formed an alliance through marriage six years ago to reunite the feelings that were split apart."

  After finishing speaking, Jiang Qiong looked at Rong Qian with a profound meaning.

  "Brother——" Swallow suddenly tensed up and grabbed Yong Qian's arm, glaring warily at Jiang Qiong.

  "Luoyang's two families will never have a marriage alliance." Rong Qian pulled Yanzi along and turned to leave.

  Jiang Qiong smiled complacently: "I think so too... after all, our two families have been hurt for decades. Hehe, slow down!"

  "Brother, I want to ask her if she has been making things difficult for sister-in-law." Yanzhi whispered softly from behind. Born timid and afraid of her brother, she didn't dare speak louder.

  Jiang Qiong glanced at Yanzi, smiled faintly: "Besides... no matter what, our Luo family is also a scholarly family. We won't do anything shameful or improper. Mr. Rong, your sister has found the wrong person."

  Rong Qian's gaze swept lightly over Jiang Qiong: "This matter can be big or small, Madame Luo should think it through... If we really meet in court, I'm afraid the one who will lose face won't be us, the capital's nobles."

  "What do you mean?" Jiang Qiong's face changed color, "Don't think that just because you're the CEO of Jinghua now, you can speak to me casually."

  Rong Qian smiled faintly as he swept his gaze over her: "Jinghua and Longji have never had anything to say to each other. Some things don't need to be said, they can kill a person with silence. Madame Luo..."

  The meaning was profound, but he had only said half of it when Rong Yu pulled Yan Zi away.

  "Brother—" Swallow did not obey.

  Rong Qian furrowed her brow: "What Luo Shaofeng did, she may not know. Yanzi, you're stirring up trouble."

  The swallow no longer made a sound and quietly got into the BMW.

  Rong Qian got into the Audi next door.

  There is still Tao in Audi.

  "Is everything okay?"

  "It's nothing..." Rong Jian murmured, "Recently, Long Ji has been fighting for the city government land..."

  "Yes!" Qian Tao hastily said, "Don't worry, we will definitely get that piece of land."

  "No, we want Long Ji to get that piece of land." Rong Qian slightly hooked his lips, "At... a sky-high price."

  Qian Tao frowned and tactfully stopped asking. After a while, he couldn't help but ask again: "What about Yunxue..."

  "We're looking for the traffic department. Get the tape ready." Rong Qian stepped on the gas pedal and headed forward.

  Jinghua drove away, "Will get clues eventually."

  Thin lips pursed tightly, modest and dark eyes flashed with deep thought - girl, why did you want to run...

  A lifetime for one person, one marriage is enough, where do you want to run to?

  Qiao Yunxue has been here for two days already.

  This is a Chinese classical style villa, Southern garden style, somewhat like the Suzhou gardens in traditional Chinese paintings, with pavilions, towers and terraces, white walls and black tiles. If European architecture has an oil painting style, then this villa is China's ink landscape painting.

  Elegant and refined.

  A small bridge flows with water, green trees form shade.

  It's a rare thing to see such a beautiful view on a cold winter day.

  But Qiao Yunxue didn't have the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery here.

  Although this treatment is VIP-level, it still cannot erase the fact that she was just a prisoner in the street.

  "Who has such a leisurely mind..." Qiao Yunxue smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm not a beautiful swallow after all." Beautiful people are prone to encountering this kind of thing...

  Alas, Swallow must be resentful of her sister-in-law for leaving without a word. Perhaps heaven also dislikes her unkind departure, so she ended up in this place.

  Sitting on the balcony of the third floor, her chin against the railing, she blinked her clear black and white eyes, quietly sizing up the big gate below.

  The gate was guarded by two men who looked like bodyguards. They were tall and muscular, and didn't look like the kind of people you could easily talk to. With their tough faces, I estimated that even a beautiful swallow's beauty trick wouldn't work on them.

  She bent down, Qiao Yunxue rolled up her pant legs and pressed the tips of her toes on her ankles. For freedom, she struggled, but the consequence of struggling was spraining her ankle, and she was still trapped in this villa. She had been staying in this house for two days without moving.

  Even if no one is guarding it, it can't run very far.

  However, after a good night's sleep, my ankle doesn't seem to hurt that much now, I should be able to run.

  She should first familiarize herself with the terrain. See how to run smoothly. Thinking of this, Qiao Yunxue stood up. She tried her ankle and it was indeed much more flexible, although there was still some swelling pain, but she could support walking a few miles.

  Leaving the balcony and returning to the bedroom, she stared at the bedroom in a daze. The simple and bright style was her favorite style. Looking at this house, this Chinese-style architecture, this southern charm, the first person she thought of was Luo Shaofeng, who had a bit of an idle and elegant demeanor.

  But this villa must not be Luo Shaofan's.

  She was very clear about Luo Shaofeng's assets. In those eight years, although Luo Shaofeng didn't dote on her, he didn't hide his assets from her either. However, at that time she was innocent and romantic, only immersed in the feelings of first love, and wasn't too concerned with external things.

  After all, most of the time was spent struggling rather than enjoying.

  Whose villa is this?

  There is a computer in the room, but she saw it when she came and there was no internet cable. There is a telephone, still no internet cable. These are all decorations and have no connection to the outside world.

  Rong Qian thought of calling him for help earlier. She picked up her phone, frowned and took a glance. But it had been out of power for a long time and couldn't be turned on.

  She rummaged through her travel bag quickly, dumping everything onto the big bed and then picking through each item. No charger.

  She should have brought it, but she didn't, which means someone took this charger. Damn it!

  She's looking for Rong Qian!

  The two words "Rong Qian" flashed through her mind, and Qiao Yunxue was stunned - why did she think of Rong Qian instead of her parents?

  Her hands gently stroked her belly. If there was life in there, it would be the happiest thing in the world. Rong Qian - if you were my boyfriend, you'd definitely not make the cut; but as a husband, you're amazingly competent...

  "Miss, if it's tidying up, I'll help you tidy up." A loud voice came from the doorway.

  She raised her head and stared at the middle-aged woman who claimed to be Wang Ma, with a faint smile: "No need, I'm not some kind of rich lady."

  King's mother was stunned and still obediently withdrew.

  As soon as Wang's mother left, Qiao Yunxue quietly came out. She ran up to the rooftop and looked around. There was a corner of this roof that was close to the outside, but the three-story villa was ten meters high, and she didn't dare risk her life.

  Looking far into the distance, all around were villa districts, very far away, she cried for help but no one could hear her.

  Qiao Yunxue went down to the third floor and looked around room by room. Almost all of the rooms were locked, and she couldn't see any signs of the villa's owner anywhere.

  The second floor is the same.

  It seems there is no fourth person in the villa except for Wang's mother and those two bodyguards downstairs.

  She went downstairs.

  Wang's mother waited at the stairs and said gently: "Miss, lunch will be ready in a little while. Please wait for a moment."

  "I want to see your master." Qiao Yunxue knew that being difficult with these servants would only make things more difficult for herself, so she was very kind to Wang Ma, "I have something important to discuss with him."

  Wang's mother stood with her head bowed, her attitude very good: "The villa is empty now. Miss, wait a moment."

  Qiao Yunxue was stunned, she knew no one would tell her, so she had to probe Wang Ma for information. But apparently, this Wang Ma was not stupid and was good at playing Tai Chi. Perhaps, it's possible that Wang Ma was too timid and couldn't help but play Tai Chi like this.

  "How much longer?" Still smiling faintly, Qiao Yunxue walked out.

  "It's okay for today, maybe it'll be over soon." Wang's mother caught up with her, somewhat timidly, "Miss, the wind is strong outside. If anything happens to you, I... won't be able to bear the responsibility."

  The room is very stuffy.

  Qiao Yunxue smiled lightly, her calm demeanor putting Wang's mother at ease, who could only instruct her to "come back when the wind is strong."

  "Okay, thank you!" With one hand pulling open the automatic door, Qiao Yunxue walked out of the six-meter-high living room.

  Outside a small bridge flows water, all surrounded by green trees. Her gaze fell on the surrounding wall.

  It's a two-meter-high wall made up of stainless steel railings, with very sharp tips. I estimate that she can't climb over it, and even if she could, there's no way to stand on the tip and jump outside.

  Walking on the cobblestone path, Qiao Yunxue's eyes repeatedly glanced at those two bodyguards.

  Those two are not easy to mess with. She glanced at the gate, which was a rather low-end iron gate; if there were cars, they should be able to rush out.

  At a glance, there was indeed a Porsche parked in the backyard. Qiao Yunxue rushed over and could only knock on the car door with a muffled sound - the locked car made her angry just by looking at it.

  She stopped and thought for a moment, then suddenly walked towards the two bodyguards: "Big brother?"

  The two bodyguards immediately became highly tense, standing straight and staring at her tightly.

  It seems these two bodyguards were assigned to keep an eye on her.

  "I'm going to buy something," she said lightly. "Please make way for me, two brothers."

  "No way," one of them said.

  Another one said cautiously: "Wang Ma can help you buy it."

  "Uh..." Qiao Yunxue smiled awkwardly, "That... is something for women to use, I'll buy it myself. I'm in a hurry."

  "Then... wait another half day." The bodyguard seemed unwilling to make things difficult for her, but would absolutely not give her an easy way out.

  Qiao Yunxue understood, which means she could meet the person who invited her here today.

  She said tentatively: "Your master is very handsome."

  "Ah——" The two bodyguards were stunned.

  In their brief moment of stunned silence, Qiao Yunxue suddenly understood that the other person was not a woman, but a man. She smiled lightly: "I made a mistake, I said your master is very handsome."

  But she was so confused that the two bodyguards already understood that she was probing. Both of them closed their mouths and stopped making a sound.

  Qiao Yunxue was slightly taken aback, although it was only a few words, she saw that these two bodyguards were not the kind of people with strong limbs and simple minds. It seemed that the two bodyguards sent by the other side to monitor her were unexpectedly well-versed in both literature and martial arts.

  She's really something!

  "Alright, you're making things difficult for me, not even giving me a chance to get the things I need. I'll remember this." Qiao Yunxue dropped a bombshell on the two bodyguards and turned around to leave without another word.

  "Miss——" one of the bodyguards immediately spoke up.

  Another one quickly stopped: "Miss, we'll ask for instructions right away. We won't bother you at all. Please forgive us, thank you!"

  Indeed, he is well-versed in both literature and martial arts, and his actions are timely and appropriate.

  Even more suspicious.

  It shouldn't be Su Qinglan's doing. She isn't capable of this.

  But... Qiao Yunxue rubbed her forehead, Su Qinglan, this woman who had no level, had already done several things that had some level. Su Qinglan seemed to have some mystery, sometimes stupid, and sometimes as if she had drunk the elixir of immortality and became clever. There seemed to be a mysterious power supporting her from behind. She refused Su Qinglan's request for help, and Su Qinglan even said - if Qiao Yunxue didn't help her, she would regret it.

  It cannot be ruled out that Su Qinglan is suspicious.

  Jiang Qiong?

  Jiang Qiong is a possibility, she's a strong woman who doesn't care about the means to achieve her goals. Could it be Jiang Qiong?

  Besides, Qiao Yunxue couldn't think of who else she had offended!

  Wait, Shi Jing?

  She has only offended Shi Jing in the past six months. Because of her, Shi Jing was demoted twice and finally transferred to Shenzhen. It is not clear what position he holds in Shenzhen. A director being demoted must be very depressed. Even if he harbors resentment and wants revenge on her, it can be understood.

  If it were Shijie, her situation would be very precarious!

  Thinking of this, Qiao Yunxue quickly left the gate and walked towards the backyard.

  As she turned, she glanced out of the corner of her eye at the three people watching her - Zhang Mama hadn't come out, probably busy cooking. The two bodyguards seemed very relieved, thinking that as long as they guarded the gate, everything would be fine.

  Coming to the backyard, it is still a high wall. No——

  Porsche was leaning against the wall, adding a meter to her height, and she could try climbing over the wall. Although she was a bit old and frail, for freedom, she would try jumping high again.

  Her eyes shone brightly, Qiao Yunxue's lips curved upwards. Her coat was a bit cumbersome. She took it off directly and wore only her sweater, which was much lighter. Qiao Yunxue quickly climbed onto the car, stepped on the roof, and desperately climbed up the wall. She climbed onto the middle brick pillar of the stainless steel railing.

  Crouching on top, looking down a bit high, dizzy. Clenching her teeth, Qiao Yunxue closed her eyes, counted to three seconds silently, and jumped down.

  No landing.

  How come it's been so long and still hasn't landed, is it suspended in mid-air?

  No, she fell into someone's arms.

  With a start, she opened her eyes and saw a familiar face -
