Chapter 138 She's Not Dumb

Si Boning searched the castle for a whole day, not even in the mood to drink a sip of water.

In the dark night, he held a flashlight and walked into a secret room with red eyes that he had never been before.In this secret basement, there was a gust of cold air all the time, which made him terrified, but also made him excited.

Prior to this, Si Boning had gone through all the rooms, big and small, before he remembered the magnificent underground "palace" hidden under the castle.If he hadn't been imprisoned in the underground torture chamber, he wouldn't have had the chance to spy on this mysterious underground building.

Si Boning stood at the door of the basement, and found that there was a large and small curved door, which seemed to be a dark room. Si Boning looked at it, and the room was extremely dark, as if there was something that could absorb light , the light of the flashlight can only see close at hand.Si Boning raised his flashlight to shine a light on the ceiling, but he couldn't see the end of the light.

If he didn't know that the ceiling couldn't extend infinitely, Si Boning would definitely think that he was in a huge black hole.But what is this room for?Si Boning thought for a while, then took out two palm-sized spotlight pills from his bag, pressed them lightly, and the bright white light instantly filled the dark room.

Everything suddenly became clear. This is a circular dark room of about fifty square meters. Si Boning soon found a gap on the left side of the entrance, which looked like a small door leading to the exit.There were no switches or door locks on the smooth wall. Si Boning raised his hand and tapped lightly, and the echo sounded like thunder.

Si Baining couldn't help but rubbed his ears, his eyes suddenly widened, didn't it?This door uses a voice-activated password?

Thinking of this, Si Boning tried to knock on the wall twice again, and sure enough, the echo sounded very unusual, unusually clear and bright.

Anyway, there are other ways to open this door, so why not give it a try.But what about the password?Si Boning couldn't think of a password to open it, so he had to try and use the password he found when he dismantled the clock.

He raised his hand and slapped the wall vigorously, "Boom, boom..." There was a rhythmic knocking sound, but the door still didn't respond.Si Baining rubbed his numb palm, momentarily at a loss for what to do.But if it wasn't a sound-controlled door, what would it be?

The spotlight gradually dimmed, and Si Boning's eyes fell on the door that came in. Although the corridor was also pitch black, it was still brighter than this circular secret room that sucked in the light.It must be because the door is not closed, some of the sound waves slipped away from here, and there is not enough audio vibration, so it can't work.

For some reason, Si Boning was so sure that his guess was correct that he closed the only entrance without hesitation, and locked himself into this secret room.The moment the door was closed, the whole room was so quiet that a needle could almost be heard. Si Boning held his breath, enduring the coldness and the ghostly chirping from above his head. He believed that these were hallucinations.

Si Baining stabilized his mind, but raised his hand but couldn't make up his mind to slap the wall again.He gritted his teeth, although it was all voices, it would be better to have a more violent one.Thinking about it, Si Boning raised his foot, and stepped hard on the floor of the secret room with the hard sole.

The entire secret room suddenly resounded like a thunderclap. After walking for an unknown amount of time, Si Boning almost regretted his recklessness. When he gave up, a crisp "click" pulled him back from his remorse. Reality.

opened!Si Boning looked in surprise at the wall that was originally just a gap, and suddenly opened a door.He walked over without hesitation, and found that there was actually a corridor.

Naturally, Si Boning didn't know that this was the place where Jiahuan had been when he was punished. He kept walking along the road that Jiahuan had walked, and every oil painting brought him a fresh shock, until he saw Thomas In the portrait and the oil painting, the metal object like a pocket watch hanging on Thomas's chest stopped for a moment in thought.

An indescribable feeling filled Si Boning's mind, he couldn't tell whether it was intuition or sixth sense, he only knew that this metal object seemed to be very complicated, and it might have some connection with the secrets of the Kabbalah family, but Si Boning For a while, Bo Ning was unable to find any clues from it.

After a while, Si Boning only felt that the star map made of precious stones on the metal kept spinning in front of his eyes, making him dizzy, dizzy, and his head was swollen and painful.Si Boning closed his eyes, beat his forehead desperately, trying to shake all these countless starlight dots out of his mind...

Xiao Yinuo left the Kington Hotel and rushed straight to Xu Fuzhai, because he was anxious to see An An quickly, he didn't ask the driver to accompany him, but drove the Lotus sports car all the way by himself.

"Squeak—" There was a harsh friction sound, and the car stopped firmly at the door of the hotel.Xiao Yinuo jumped out of the car, casually threw the key to the parking boy, and ran to the special bag on the third floor without waiting.

"Welcome~" Miss Etiquette stood in two rows at the door, dressed in colorful court ladies' costumes, and warmly greeted the guests.

Xiao Yinuo pursed his lips, he never liked this kind of showmanship, but it's a pity that Tao Jingyang just likes this kind of tone.

"Mr. Xiao." The hotel manager was wearing a palace uniform, and followed behind Xiao Yinuo: "Young Master Tao is on the third floor. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Today there is a Siberian bear paw that was just airlifted over. Do you want to come?" set?"

Xiao Yinuo couldn't wait for the elevator, so he rushed up the stairs in twos and twos: "Go up whatever you want. As long as Tao Jingyang says he wants it, he can satisfy him with anything."

"Deling~" The manager climbed the stairs behind Xiao Yinuo, and at the same time took out the electronic menu from his pocket to place an order for the kitchen, panting in his mouth, but did not shake his fingers at all, and cleaned up all the top dishes.

On the third floor, the manager straightened his clothes, and respectfully opened the door for Xiao Yinuo. The large private room was designed in an antique style, blending the atmosphere of the royal garden and the exquisite beauty of the Jiangnan water town into the private room. Fish, exotic flowers and jade rockery, the design is patchwork and unconventional.

On one side of the room against the wall stands a row of exquisite antique shelves, on which all kinds of vases and jades are elegant, and on the other side is a carved sandalwood screen, with the patterns of gentle and talented maids graceful and elegant, showing nobility.

The round dining table is behind the screen, and a small arch bridge needs to be crossed in the middle. The flowing water under the bridge is slightly gurgling, and the duckweed is extremely elegant.Xiao Yinuo saw a jade arm resting on the corner of the table exposed behind the screen, as crystal clear as fat chalcedony, his heart beat faster.

After so many years, An An doesn't know what she has become, and whether she still remembers herself...

Countless questions circled in Xiao Yinuo's mind, and his steps gradually hesitated.

"Mr. Xiao, please~"

The manager bent down respectfully and made a gesture of invitation. Xiao Yinuo regained his senses and heard the sound of a chair being pushed and pulled behind the screen. He hurriedly walked a few steps and walked around the arch bridge towards the screen.

The figures floated, it seemed that the two people stood up at the same time, Xiao Yinuo clenched his hands tightly, trying to calm himself down, so as not to frighten An An.

Xiao Yinuo took a deep breath, raised the corners of his mouth, forced a smile, just turned around, and before he could clearly see An An's appearance, he slapped him heavily on the shoulder.

"Snapped--"

Xiao Yinuo was already nervous, and almost fell into the water with a jerk, Tao Jingyang hurriedly grabbed his arm, and laughed loudly:

"I heard you coming in a long time ago. What are you dawdling about? Come on, let me introduce you. This is Miss An An, and this is Mr. Xiao, Xiao Yinuo."

Xiao Yinuo followed Tao Jingyang's gestures and looked over, the "An'an" in his mouth stretched out his hand gracefully and generously: "Hello."

Xiao Yinuo shook hands with An An in a daze, and couldn't help but look up and down. This girl was about the same age as he remembered, with long black hair, a small face with melon seeds, handsome eyebrows and fair skin, everything was similar to what he remembered , but it seems that something is missing.

"You, how can you talk?!" Xiao Yinuo asked in surprise.

As soon as the words fell, An An covered her mouth and chuckled: "I would have done it too."

Xiao Yinuo's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned unconsciously.Seeing this, An An and Tao Jingyang looked at each other, and said with a smile:

"When I was a child, I was tricked into the home of the traffickers by uncle gambling ghosts. Later, when I heard that the traffickers were going to sell me to other places, I started pretending to be dumb. That's how I escaped halfway through their negligence and met you."

Xiao Yinuo nodded, but he didn't fully believe it: "Then why did you run away when you saw the police?"

An An was taken aback for a moment, before showing embarrassment and saying: "My uncle is a policeman, so—"

Xiao Yinuo suddenly realized, seeing An An's slightly shy expression, he couldn't help feeling pity.

Tao Jingyang could naturally see that Xiao Yinuo's heart was gradually changing, so he casually greeted the manager to serve the food to resolve the embarrassment.

A table of good food was served, Tao Jingyang regarded himself as a matchmaker, and ate it unceremoniously, An An seemed to be a little cautious, and looked at Xiao Yinuo from time to time with a flushed face, the two of them inadvertently looked at each other, and the feelings continued to flow, looking straight Go to each other's heart.

"Uh, where do you work now?" Xiao Yinuo spoke first.

Without waiting for An An's answer, Tao Jingyang interjected: "A salesperson from an advertising company. I have business dealings with my company, so I just met her. Otherwise, how could I find her in such a crowded sea. This is fate!"

An'an smiled reservedly and nodded silently.

The person Xiao Yinuo thinks about day and night is right in front of him, but he is not as excited as he imagined before.When he couldn't find An'an, he had fantasized about marrying her as his wife, taking her around the world, and giving her all the good things.But now, An An is sitting opposite him, and what he thinks more about is how to keep An An by his side.

Such a small and simple wish, like the most difficult subject in the world, troubled Xiao Yinuo.

Now An An is no longer the orphan girl she met back then, she has her own parents, family, job and friends, she is not someone Xiao Yinuo can manipulate based on her own wishful thinking.
