My Best CEO Wife

Chapter 493

If what Xu Liushi said is true, the holy grail has been missing for more than ten years. Even if such a small thing is still in this old villa, it is really time-consuming to find such a big villa. Strenuous things, at least tonight, are absolutely hopeless.

Considering these situations, Su Xinyuan and Mu Ningxue exchanged glances at each other, nodded at the same time in a tacit understanding, and decided to stay in the villa tonight.

Seeing that Su Xinyuan and Mu Ningxue agreed to stay, Xu Liushi seemed very happy, and immediately got up and began to arrange the bedroom for five people.

The five of Su Xinyuan also got up, and followed Xu Liushi to the upper floor of the villa. Xu Liushi explained apologetically as he walked. Although the whole villa has three floors, there are no guest rooms on the first floor below. Although there are quite a few rooms on the second floor, except for Xu Liu’s bedroom, the rest of the rooms have not been tidied up. On the contrary, there are exactly three rooms on the third floor of the uppermost villa. When the weather was good a few days ago, Xu Liu’s Taking advantage of the sunny day and opening the windows to let the air in, I cleaned the whole house by the way, so I can live in it right now, which is extremely convenient.

The five people followed Xu Liushi up the stairs, and Su Xinyuan suddenly remembered the strange butler named Lao Huang. It stands to reason that there must be some things that need to be sorted out when there are guests at home. There is no one, could it be that he went to bed early?

Muttering in his heart, Su Xinyuan asked casually, but Xu Liushi laughed when he heard it: "Hehe, how can he sleep right now? It's been less than an hour since he woke up!"

Su Xinyuan was even more surprised when he heard it. Even if people are old, they don't sleep until it's dark, right?Not to mention that this old Huang is just a servant of the housekeeper.

Just thinking about it, the third floor of the villa has arrived. The three guest rooms that Xu Liushi just cleaned are next to each other by the corridor on the living room side of the third floor. The room is indeed very clean. The four daughters of Mu Ningxue are obviously very Satisfied, he didn't pay much attention to Su Xinyuan, left him to choose two guest rooms and walked in.

Come on, it looks like I'm sleeping alone again tonight, sighing inwardly, Su Xinyuan suddenly became depressed.

After chatting with the four daughters of Mu Ningxue for a while, Mrs. Xu Liu did not sit upstairs for a long time, and soon got up and went downstairs. Since it was still early, the fourth daughter of Mu Ningxue and Su Xinyuan were not sleepy yet, so they went Sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Facing the sofa is a row of floor-to-ceiling glass windows. When the floor-to-ceiling windows are opened, there is a rather spacious open balcony outside. There are a few rattan tables and chairs placed there. It is estimated that Xu Liu often sits on It is also a good way to relax there to see the scenery of the mountains and forests in the distance.

At this moment, the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling glass windows have been pulled open, and through the entire row of transparent glass, the moonlight outside falls on the living room, which really makes people feel peaceful and peaceful.

"Let me and Ningxue sleep in the same room at night, and Lixiang and Miss Chen." Not long after sitting down, Luo Jiu suddenly made a strange request.

Su Xinyuan, Mu Ningxue, and Chen Meier were stunned when they heard this. When they stayed in the five-star hotel on Bolan Street before, they shared rooms with Lixiang and Luo Jiu, while Chen Meier and Mu In Ningxue's room, although it doesn't matter who sleeps with whom at all, the four of them are all women anyway, but Luo Jiu's arrangement is obviously deliberate, which really makes people a little baffling.

Lixiang, on the other hand, was not surprised at all, as if she already knew the deep meaning of Luo Jiu's special arrangement. Although she didn't speak, she nodded directly to express her support.

"Don't look at me like that, there's nothing wrong with being cautious. I always feel that this place is gloomy, and there seems to be some unknown danger hidden."

Seeing that Su Xinyuan and the others were still staring at her in bewilderment, Luo Jiu could only helplessly shrug and explain: "Lixiang and I are killers after all, so our vigilance and intuition are better than those of Ningxue and Ms. Chen." Gao, with the two of us living in the same room with them, if there is any accident at night, at least we don't have to worry about them sleeping too deeply!"

"You mean..."

Hearing the words, Su Xinyuan immediately understood the hint in Luo Jiu's words. Thinking back now, the hunched butler Lao Huang was indeed a bit weird. When he was at the gate of the villa courtyard, he stared at Mu Ningxue and the girls who were examining her. The gaze was a bit abnormal, Luo Jiu and Li Xiang obviously felt it at the time, so when they followed behind into the villa compound, they were always on guard.

Now Luo Jiu suddenly proposed that she and Lixiang accompany Chen Meier and Mu Ningxue respectively, indicating that during the period after entering the villa compound, she most likely discovered other suspicious things.

If you think about it, a bad old man and a beautiful widow in their young age live almost alone in this old old house deep in the mountains and forests. If you think about it for a while, anyone will feel a little Something is wrong.

In addition, Xu Liu's attitude towards Lao Huang was indeed a little too laissez-faire. A servant butler actually slept until evening and didn't get up. Not only was she not annoyed by being so arrogant, but she could laugh so easily. There is adultery!

Thinking of this, Su Xinyuan's expression suddenly became strange, and he glanced at Lixiang and Luo Jiu speechlessly.

These two girls are too talented. Although Xu Liushi, He Laohuang, the old and young masters and servants are indeed a little weird, but at most they are just stealing love and messing with broken shoes. Even the unkind eyes that Lao Huang showed before, Mostly it was because he didn't welcome this young and handsome stranger to visit, so as not to show Xu Liu's enthusiasm. In the end, it was the same problem, because of this, he suddenly became wary, which seemed a bit too sensitive.

"Puff!"

"Fluttering..."

……

Just as he was muttering, there was a large and dense sound of piercing the sky outside the window of the villa. It sounded like the movement of many birds flapping their wings together.

All of them were startled, and subconsciously turned their heads to look out of the window, just in time to see the pool of moonlight falling on the floor of the living room flickering, and a large dense canopy of small shadows flashed quickly, as if the sky outside was falling. Countless birds flapped their wings and flew by, just blocking the moonlight shining through the window!

"Not birds! It's bats!"

Lixiang was the first to stand up, and she had already walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows while speaking, pushed open the glass window and walked out.

Su Xinyuan and Mu Ningxue immediately got up and followed them out, looking from the balcony on the third floor in the direction of the strange noises coming from the sky, what they saw instantly shocked them all.

At this moment, in the sky not far from the villa, there are countless black bats flapping their wings and flying towards them. Thousands of them gather together, looking like a black cloud from a distance.

These black bats flew in the direction of this old villa in the mountains and forests, and some of them had already flown to the courtyard of the villa, like suckling swallows returning to their nests, they all rushed to the right side of the small building of the villa. A brick hut for storing sundries.

In less than half a minute, the fast black cloud disappeared, and the sound of piercing the sky also quietly stopped. The countless black bats that formed the black cloud had all burrowed through the dilapidated windows of the brick hut. go in.

Such a scene was too weird. Su Xinyuan and the five who were standing on the balcony on the third floor didn't come back to their senses for a long time. If there were not a few bats that hadn't entered the hut, they would be like strange black fruits at this moment. , all hanging upside down on the branch of the big tree next to the hut, swaying slightly with the night breeze, I'm afraid they will wonder if they were delusional just now.

Although bats are a common animal, such a large group of bats is rarely seen even in some valleys deep in the mountains, let alone in a residential house in the outskirts of such a city?

Judging from the fact that they came all over the place, and all of them got into the small earthen house, most of these bats have already taken root in the earthen house, and there are so many terrifying black bats living close by, Xu Are Mrs. Liu and the housekeeper Lao Huang not worried at all?

Just as he was thinking about it, a figure suddenly walked out of the courtyard of the villa downstairs, with a hunched figure, holding a large bucket in his hand, which seemed to be quite heavy, and he did not know what was in it.

This person is the housekeeper, Lao Huang, and the direction he is walking slowly right now is the brick and earth hut where at least tens of thousands of black bats got into just now. When he got close, he raised his hand and opened the door and walked in...

Su Xinyuan was stunned again. Could it be that these bats were all raised by the housekeeper, Huang?Otherwise, where would he have the guts to just push the door open and walk in?

Are you okay with bats?One raise and one house?It's just weird!The small earthen hut was already small, and tens of thousands of bats would probably be crowded enough to get into it. Once Lao Huang got in on the back foot...

Imagining the terrifying scene of the housekeeper Lao Huang being squeezed into a large pile of bats in his mind, the white sweat on Su Xinyuan's back immediately appeared, and Mu Ningxue and the others next to him seemed to have thought of this, and their mouths poured out. Taking a breath, even Luo Jiu and Li Xiang, who were always tough, were so startled that they took a small step back subconsciously.

After all, she is a woman, and she is always a bit innately afraid of things like rats and bats. If she encounters such a large and densely packed situation again, a man will be shocked when he sees them.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Su..."

At this moment, Xu Liu's apologetic voice suddenly came from the third-floor hall of the villa behind him. Su Xinyuan turned her head to look, and she was walking slowly with an embarrassed expression on her face: "These bats are all raised by Lao Huang." , not during the day, they all flew to the caves deep in the mountains to rest, but as soon as it got dark, they would all fly back, get into the small earthen house and wait for Lao Huang to feed them. It looks a little scary, but it’s just a matter of getting used to it. It's okay, they won't hurt people, I should have reminded you a long time ago, but I forgot about it when I was busy just now, until I heard the movement of bats returning to their nests, oops, It's all my fault, didn't you scare the younger sisters?"
