and she smiled faintly, "Shaocheng, how did he find this secluded place It's quite suitable for me.""I don't know either," the maid shook her head.A trace of disappointment flickered across her Lin J..."I'm going back to rest." Leng Jue didn't say much else, turning and stepping lightly into the darkness.

When the surroundings were completely quiet, Gu Liechen took out a cigarette case from his pocket and lit a cigarette.

After finishing his cigarette quickly, he crushed the butt on a stone as usual and threw it in the trash.

Gu Liechen stood up straight and took a step in another direction, soon disappearing into the night.

The next day's sun rose as usual.

The night owl awoke alone in his room. After getting out of bed, he rubbed his somewhat sore shoulders.

This bed is too hard and I don't sleep comfortably. Besides, without Lin Jinyan beside me, I can't fall asleep peacefully.

He was most worried about Lin Jinran being here, wondering if Leng Jue and the others had done a good job of concealing this matter, and whether she had noticed anything unusual

The night owl sat on the sofa with his eyes downcast, thinking to himself, his mood suddenly souring. If this matter frightened his darling, he would definitely make the organization pay dearly.

At that moment, a sound of a door creaking open, "creak," reached my ears.

After the door was pushed open, someone brought breakfast over and placed it on the table before stepping back.

The night owl stood up from the sofa and walked to the dining table.

The breakfast was plentiful, I have to say they really went all out on the prisoner's rations.

If you weren't in this dark, dingy room, you'd think it was a vacation based on the food.

The night owl had no appetite. He glanced at the food on the table and then went back to his book.

Compared to his relaxed, vacation-like state here, Gu Liechen over there seemed much more tense.

To throw the traitor off, Gu Liechen still asked Leng Jue to send people to search for Ye Xiao's whereabouts. He acted as if he was completely unfazed, like he knew something inside.

This immediately created a strong contrast, and Gu Liechen had Leng Jue choose one or two confidants to act with him, putting on a play specifically for the traitor.

The person he chose from the cold list was someone he knew before. He was absolutely clean-cut, someone who had always followed Ye Xiao. It was impossible for him to have any problems.

This scene is actually very simple. They just dislike Gu Liechen and, facing Ye Xiao's disappearance, they weren't overly anxious about looking for him. They acted indifferently and complained to Leng Jue.

Leng Jue arrived with an imposing and threatening aura to cause trouble for Gu Liechen, but ultimately left peacefully after calming his companions.

Gu Liechen wanted just the suspicion of an insider, suspicion breeds distrust and gives rise to dark thoughts.

But the play can't start right away, he still needs to put on a show, act the part after all.

After confirming the time with Leng Jue, Gu Liechen privately checked his connection with Ye Xiao again. He still hadn't received any information from Ye Xiao and didn't know how he was doing now.

Lunch, as always, was a very lavish Western meal.

He just had a few bites for breakfast, but now the night owl was finally starting to have a proper lunch.

The food looked high-end, but the actual taste and texture were just average. It wasn't made by a master chef, that's for sure, but it was still enough to fill your stomach.

The night owl was eating slowly and gracefully, to the extreme, giving no hint whatsoever that he was imprisoned.

Even the monitors had some doubts, being imprisoned and yet so calm was truly rare.

Could it be that there's still a hidden trump card up their sleeve

The person being monitored's phone rang. He hurriedly answered the call, reporting that Night Owl had been reading all morning.ed Lin Jinyan with his arms, and slowly closed his eyes. 。Everything around was shrouded in darkness, a profound silence settling over the surroundings. Only the gentle rhythm of breathing could be fa...
