Qiao Nian blinked, and struck out as fast as lightning, striking the side of Dowell's neck with his hand. Before Dowell opened his eyes wide and fell into unconsciousness, he said in a slightly apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, I didn't poison him."
Dowell: “…”
He had no time to say anything, and the man had already fallen straight up.
Qiao Nian dragged the person to the last compartment with ease this time, and used some small tools to lock the compartment from the outside. The people outside could not push the door open, so he could go out by himself when he woke up.
…
Upstairs.
Ye Wangchuan was flipping through the documents on the bookshelf, which were as numerous as stars.
His slender hands took out the cowhide bag from inside, opened the knot that sealed it, took out the documents inside and looked down at it.
It contains a confidential document recording major events that occurred during 2005.
He scanned the general contents at a glance, then re-sealed the document and put it back in its original place, and continued to take out the next document bag. He looked through about 20 document bags in this way, but he still didn't find what he was looking for.
Just as he was opening the latest document, the door lock clicked open.
Ye Wangchuan raised his head and saw the woman coming in from outside.
Elena's long hair is made into romantic waves and draped on the side. The exposed neck is slender, the bridge of the nose is high, and her brown eyes are bright and attractive with curled eyelashes.
She pushed the door open and walked in naturally. She stopped in front of Ye Wangchuan and noticed the man's cold gaze. Elena flipped her hair.
“Aunt Lan asked me to look for you.”
Ye Wangchuan lowered his eyes and continued to look at the documents in his hand, as if she didn't exist, showing extreme indifference and neglect.
"..." Elena's self-esteem was frustrated, and her grasping fingers were a little blue and white due to excessive force. She immediately adjusted her mentality and spoke to the other party again as if she was talking to herself: "Aunt Lan said that the thing you are looking for is here. The next room." The man finally had some reaction.
Ye Wangchuan paused while flipping through the documents. His hands were like carefully carved jade, with clear knuckles and smooth skin. Every detail showed elegance and strength.
Elena was attracted by his hand and couldn't help but cast her eyes on it.
Before she could see it clearly.
Ye Wangchuan seemed to be aware of her gaze, closed the papers in his hand, stuffed them all into the document bag and sealed them away.
Then he looked at her: "Do you know what I'm looking for?"
Elena shook her head: "I don't know."
"But Aunt Lan asked me to convey this to you, and you are the protagonist tonight, and you have been gone for too long. In fact, no matter what you are looking for, there is no need to rush for a moment, you can go down and get to know each other first... Shadow Grandma and my aunt, you should always meet and exchange greetings with their elders. They will be your helpers in the future, not enemies."
Ye Wangchuan interrupted: "Are you done? You can go out after you finish."
Elena's fair face flushed red, and in an instant she pinched the palm of her hand and squeezed it hard to stimulate her mind back to her senses. Her eyes that looked like Qiao Nian looked at the man in front of her for a moment, and said forcefully: "Young Master Ye, as long as you still If you want the Theron family, the marriage between our two families is imperative!"
Ye Wangchuan turned his back on her, pulled out a new document bag from a row of bookshelves, and said in an indifferent tone: "Go out and close the door."
Snapped-
An invisible slap sounded in the air, slapping Elena loudly on the face.
No matter how interested she was in this man, her years of proud upbringing would not allow her to stay here and get entangled. (End of chapter)
