Looking at the sad expression on Qi Mengxi's face, Hao Qiang felt a sharp pain in his heart. At the same time, he also felt guilty.
At that time, his heart was actually at a loss as well. At that time, he was already unable to distinguish the feelings between what he felt in the movie and what he felt outside, and he had no choice but to admit that in his heart, he actually had a special feeling towards Ewen, but at the same time, he could not abandon Qi Mengxi.
Even now, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't feel anything for her.
Hao Qiang didn't know how strong a person's heart could be, and how many people he could fall in love with at the same time. However, he had to admit that he couldn't bear to part with Qi Mengxi and Ai Wen Wen.
He loved Qi Mengxi's unruly willfulness, but also loved her bashfulness and loveliness.
"As for Wenwen …" "I've been thinking a lot these days. Wenwen and I have been best friends since childhood. Now that you have a relationship with her, you have to take responsibility for her. If you refuse to take responsibility for my sake, I will never forgive you."
When Hao Qiang heard Qi Mengxi's words, he was stunned for a moment. He looked down at Qi Mengxi's serious expression, but he could clearly see the painful struggle in her eyes. He felt even more guilty and held her in his arms for a long time without saying a word.
After comforting Qi Mengxi for a long time, Qi Mengxi finally recovered from her grief. At the same time, the butler also took care of everything. Thus, Hao Qiang changed his clothes and carried Qi Mengxi back to his villa.
After waiting for Hao Qiang and the others to return to the villa, everyone was stunned. However, a wave of joy immediately filled the villa.
She rushed into Hao Qiang's arms and hugged him tightly.
Because of Qi Mengxi, she could only visit Hao Qiang in the hospital when Qi Mengxi was not around. Although she couldn't see him, she had been worried about Hao Qiang for more than half a month.
But now, seeing Hao Qiang appear in front of her in a mess, she couldn't care about anything else after half a month of longing. This was the only man she loved, and for his sake, she couldn't care less.
Qi Mengwei looked at the long-lost Wenwen with a complicated expression. However, when she thought about what she said to Hao Qiang in the hospital, she could only look at her in relief.
Hao Qiang subconsciously looked at Qi Mengxi, only to see that she didn't have any unhappy expression. He then quickly consoled the crying Wenwen in his arms.
After calming her down, Hao Qiang did not care about the sound of people persuading him to rest at home and called for the butler to leave.
"Where are we going?" The butler carefully drove the car as he asked Hao Qiang, who was behind him.
The car had already passed through the maze-like alleyway for half a day, yet it still flew around like a headless fly under Hao Qiang's command.
Hao Qiang looked at the road in front of him. He reckoned that it would take a while before they would reach their destination. He didn't answer the butler directly, but started to talk about what happened that day.
"Weren't you captured by the [Ghost Domain] that day?" "How do we get in contact with the people from the military?" After finding out that the butler had invited him to help, Hao Qiang had always been curious about this part.
"I already informed the military before we entered the building. Plus, I always carry a tracking device with me so they would naturally find out where I am once they check. If they didn't come in time, I would probably be a corpse by now." At this point, the butler gave a self-deprecating smile.
"With a tracking device?" Hearing this reply, Hao Qiang frowned.
The butler nodded with a smile and said, "Everyone in charge of the Hao family has a tracking device installed on them."
"Why haven't I heard you mention it before?" Hao Qiang questioned.
"You didn't have the desire to chat with me like this before."
Hearing the butler's reply, Hao Qiang felt a burst of awkwardness in his heart.
"I will definitely pay more attention to the daily lives of my employees in the future."
The butler was speechless.
He didn't mean that.
"Can you turn it off?"
The butler was stunned for a moment before realizing what Hao Qiang was referring to: "I can, at the moment I don't have a chance to breathe."
Hearing such an answer, Hao Qiang, who originally wanted to tell the butler to turn off the tracking, became silent.
"If it's inconvenient to bring me along, I can get off now." The butler warmly reminded him.
Hao Qiang shook his head, "Forget it. It's not a big deal anyway. "
The butler nodded and said nothing more. The carriage remained silent until the train arrived at its destination.
The butler looked at the low house in front of them and the spider webs that densely packed the electric wires. He did not know what kind of place they had come to.
"You've never been here before?" Hao Qiang raised his eyebrows as he looked at the butler's curious gaze.
Even though he was a butler of the Hao family in the past, his range of activities had always revolved around the Hao family. When something happened, he would instruct the Hao family's servants not to do it personally, so the places he had visited were really limited. However, he had never been to this small corner before.
"Congratulations, you can now see the darkest side of this society." Hao Qiang whistled as he pointed towards the dark, damp alley before the two of them. He then walked forward by himself with the butler following closely behind him.
As soon as they entered the alley, a figure emerged from the darkness and stared at them.
The butler looked at the man warily.
Hao Qiang signaled him to stay calm as he turned his head to look at the man.
"Who are you looking for?" The man looked at them and said in a low voice that sounded as if it had been squeezed out of his throat.
"Looking for Thunder." Hao Qiang said.
The man nodded and stepped aside.
When Hao Qiang walked past him, only then did the butler notice that there was a scar on his face from the corner of his left eye to his right chin.
The butler looked at him with a fierce expression.
The butler glared back without hesitation.
Hao Qiang immediately pulled him away, "Don't cause trouble."
Thus, under Hao Qiang's tugging, the butler obediently left.
"Although we know that that person is not your match, we are here on business, so it is better not to cause trouble." After walking for a distance, Hao Qiang said indifferently.
The butler replied with a "Yes" as he placed his hands on his sides.
As the two of them walked on, the butler noticed that the doors on both sides of the alleyway were broken but tightly shut. From time to time, strange sounds could be heard coming from behind the doors, sometimes painful screams, sometimes joyous laughter. When they passed an open door, the butler saw a woman in revealing clothes sitting inside, and when the woman saw the butler looking at him, she actually gave him a flirtatious look.
The butler flustered away, and a burst of laughter broke out behind him.
Hao Qiang looked at him and raised his eyebrows, "It can't be that I've never seen a woman before, right?"
"..." "I have never seen such a woman." Knowing that the other party was making fun of him, the butler continued speaking seriously.
Hao Qiang was surprised. "It can't be that you haven't even seen AV before, right?"
The butler looked at him blankly.
Hao Qiang: "…"
So, Mr. Housekeeper, what did you do while you were in school? Eat dirt?
"Did your roommate not see it when you were studying?" Hao Qiang refused to give up.
"No, they usually read in the library."
"So which school did you go to?"
"Big Q." the butler blurted out.
Hao Qiang: "…"
Even though it was the number one university in the country, it was unscientific not to know about AV.
Since he didn't want to pursue this topic any further, Hao Qiang chose to remain silent during the latter half of the journey.
Finally, after passing through a series of doors and a variety of winding, spiderweb-like paths, Hao Qiang stopped in front of a door and knocked on it.
"Who?" Very soon, a muffled sound came from inside, as if it was being wrapped up by something.
Even though it was only one sound and it was so indistinct, the butler still felt that it sounded familiar. He then connected it with the 'Thunder' butler that Hao Qiang said before and knew who was inside.
However, Hao Qiang did not reply. Instead, he knocked on the door a few times in a rhythmic manner.
The door was quickly opened from the inside, but what appeared in front of the butler was an unfamiliar face.
Perhaps he used some legendary disguise technique, the butler thought.
It was no wonder that they couldn't find him. Living in such a place and having a completely different appearance, it would be weird if they could find him.
As a person who lived in the modern world, he probably didn't think that there would be such a skill.
"You're finally here." That person sighed emotionally. His voice was undoubtedly Lei Li's. When he saw the butler behind Hao Qiang, Lei Li was stunned as he silently looked at Hao Qiang.
"He can believe it." Hao Qiang replied simply.
Lei Li nodded and stepped aside to let them in.
After the two of them entered the room, Lei Li closed the door. He turned around and removed a thin layer of film from his face. The mask had a nose and face on it, it was actually a mask.
The butler examined the room and found that the interior looked much better than the outside. Although it was very low, one could still tell that it was meticulously cleaned up by others.
"Who is it?" At this moment, a little loli's face peeked out from the inner room.
Hao Qiang: "…"
The butler was speechless. Mr. Reilly has a daughter?
Looking at the expressions on their faces, Lei Li smiled awkwardly, "That day, she stayed by Yin Ning's side and refused to leave. I had no choice but to bring her along with me."
Hao Qiang: "You …"
Lei Li: "Don't worry, she doesn't know anything."
Hao Qiang: "…" He only wanted to ask Lei Li if he was a spy sent by [Ghost Domain].
