Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

Xu Zhihui told the driver to hurry up until the car was gone. She jumped into the air, and a golden phoenix soared into the sky, with a ball of golden flames on its body, cutting through the night sky.

She spread her wings, dragged her long phoenix tail, and spun around, breaking through the clouds, stirring up a cloud of mist. She estimated the approximate direction and flew north.

It’s more than 2000 kilometers from Guangzhou to Beijing, but Xu Zhihui arrived in an instant.

She didn't dare to land in the city of Beijing, as it would be too conspicuous. But her sense of direction was very poor, so she circled in the sky for a while before she found a large manor in the suburbs and landed there, collecting her original body.

She walked to the gate, and in the dim light, she saw a sign on the door. A flame appeared in her palm, and she walked forward to see that it was an old, peeling sign with "Lingyue Villa" written on it. It turned out to be the old manor of Du Yueqiu's family in the capital.

She extinguished the Phoenix Fire and said in surprise and joy: "Ah, I came to Lingyue Manor by accident."

There is an ancient city in Lingyue Villa, surrounded by mountains. It is terribly quiet here, like a pool of stagnant water, and even Du Yueqiu himself doesn't like living here.

Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling had been here three times and found it too boring. However, this was the best place to stay in Phoenix and no one noticed her.

She looked into the manor from the iron gate. There was no light, and the ancient city was dark and silent. If she hadn't been here several times, she would have thought it had been abandoned for a long time.

There was no doorbell on the iron gate, so she called inside: "Aunt Shen...Aunt Shen..."

Her voice echoed in the empty manor. After a while, the lights in the ancient city came on, and then the gates of the ancient city opened. From afar, a woman in white was seen walking towards them with a lantern, followed by two maids with lanterns.

The woman in white walked faster and faster, running over the cobblestone road, shouting, "Who is it?"

"Oh my God, Miss Hui!"

"Yes, I'm Ah Hui, Aunt Shen."

Shen Suzhu, the housekeeper of Lingyue Villa, was so happy that she ran to the iron gate, hung the big oil lamp on the door hook, and opened the door with a creaky sound. She took Xu Zhihui's hand and asked excitedly, "Why did you come here in the dark? Are you alone?"

Xu Zhihui said: "A person just happened to be here. Aunt Shen, I have something very urgent to do. I have to go to Beijing University to check it out. I won't go in."

Shen Suzhu was slightly disappointed and said to the two maids who came over: "Go and ask the driver to drive the car over and prepare a warm coat for the young lady."

"Yes."

The two maids ran back in a hurry.

Shen Suzhu asked hurriedly: "What happened?"

Xu Zhihui said bluntly: "My Mr. He came to Beijing for business today and was supposed to go back in the evening. But now he hasn't returned and I can't contact him. I'm afraid something has happened to him."

Shen Suzhu was surprised and quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, I will go with you to find him."

Xu Zhihui thought for a moment, and because of her status as a phoenix, she was hesitant to act together with Shen Suzhu, and it would be more convenient to act alone, so she said: "Aunt Shen, I have the means, I can handle it myself, just give me a driver to travel."

Shen Suzhu was an intelligent person, and she knew what she meant, so she said, "Okay, okay. Auntie won't hold you back. If there's anything I can do, please tell me."

"Thank you Aunt Shen."

After a while, the car lights in front became bright, and a large black jeep drove over and stopped outside the gate of the manor.

The maid from before took a piece of clothing and asked Xu Zhihui to put it on.

Shen Suzhu said: "Miss Ah Hui, the driver Lao Tian is the guard of the Order Family. He has some skills. Maybe he can help you a little."

Xu Zhihui thanked Shen Suzhu again and got on the Daji. Lao Tian drove out along a small road in the suburbs. Only the headlights of the Daji broke the darkness. Lao Tian drove fast and after ten minutes or so, he came to the intersection and turned onto the main road.

After driving for about another forty minutes, driver Lao Tian arrived at the gate of Peking University, and two security guards came over to question him.

It took Xu Zhihui exactly one hour to fly from Guangzhou and arrive at the gate of Peking University. It was 8:15 in the evening.

Xu Zhihui got out of the car and said to the security guard, "I'm here to see Principal Cao Jingsong, or Vice Principal Hai Lin. I'm..."

A security guard recognized her and said in surprise, "You are Xu Jinhua. Oh, Mrs. He, why are you here?"

Xu Zhihui said, "Yes. Is Principal Cao here? I need to see him."

The security guard said, "Mrs. He, please wait a moment. I'll ask something."

He turned back to the gatehouse to make a phone call. After a moment, he came out and replied, "Principal Cao is here. Madam He, please come in."

As soon as the car drove to the parking lot below the principal's office, Cao Jingsong came out. He was very surprised and asked, "Ah Hui, why...why are you here suddenly?"

Xu Zhihui asked, "Principal Cao, what time did Mr. He leave this afternoon? How did he leave?"

Cao Jingsong was stunned for a moment and said, "After 2:30, Mr. He signed and left. The ceremony was not over yet, so I sent a reception car to take Mr. He to the airport."

Xu Zhihui asked anxiously: "Has the reception car returned? Where is the driver?"

Cao Jingsong's pupils dilated and he slapped his head, "Oh, I didn't ask about this later. I'll ask right now."

He immediately made a phone call. Xu Zhihui listened to him talking to the director of the school affairs department. After that, he hung up and said, "Director Wang of the school affairs department said that the car is back. The driver called back after sending Mr. He off. He went home after get off work because he had nothing else to do."

Xu Zhihui was shocked when she heard this. Something must have gone wrong. She couldn't help but think of the time when Hang Cheng was kidnapped. The situation was roughly the same. The driver had switched the luggage.

"Ah Hui, is Mr. He not home yet?"

Cao Jingsong was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He was careless this time. He was the one who sent the person to deliver the goods. If something went wrong, he would be held responsible.

Xu Zhihui's eyes were filled with smoke and she was glaring with anger. She wanted to beat him up, but the most important thing now was to find He Zhijing and Cheng Yue. She asked Cao Jingsong to tell her everything that happened today. Who did He Zhijing talk to? Who did he have an unpleasant experience with?

After listening, she concluded that Liu, Chen and Lin would not dare to do such a thing, and their only targets could be Ling Shaoming and Zhu Wei.

"Where is Zhu Wei?"

"I heard that his home is in Zhujia Hutong in the west of the city."

Cao Jingsong opened the map and entered Zhujia Huli, pointing it to Xu Zhihui, "Here! Look."

Xu Zhihui glanced at the map and said to him, "Principal Cao, don't make it public until things are clear."

"You're not going to call the police?"

"Do not."

Xu Zhihui had her own considerations. If it was for money, the kidnappers would definitely call her to ask for money, but she never received a call, so the matter was not that simple.

The other party was probably seeking revenge, and only she could resolve the matter by using force.

She turned around, opened the car door, and jumped in lightly, "Go to Zhujia Hutong in the west of the city, hurry up."

Lao Tian drove there immediately.

Xu Zhihui turned on the navigation and Lao Tian drove at full speed.

After about ten minutes, we arrived at the alley in the west of the city, turned several turns, and stopped in front of an elegant courtyard. Lao Tian said, "Miss Ah Hui, I'll go in with you."

"Need not."

Xu Zhihui jumped out of the car, went forward to check, and stepped onto the quaint doorsteps. In front of the door hung a plaque that read "Zhu Family House."

She pulled the door knocker and knocked three times.

After a while, a 70-year-old man opened the door. The door opened about a body's length, and the old man stuck his head out. He saw a very beautiful woman and asked in surprise, "Girl, who are you looking for?"

"Zhu Wei."

"who are you?"

"He Zhijing's wife."

"Wait a moment, I'll go report it."

Xu Zhihui pushed the door open, barged in forcefully, and said, "No need, I'll come in right away."
