Xu Ke had never experienced such a thing before. His hands were shaking as he held the contract. He finally finished reading the contents and looked up at Situ Rui, whose deer eyes were immediately covered with a layer of mist.

Situ Rui raised his eyebrows. He had read the contents of the contract. The most important point in it was the requirement for confidentiality. However, the penalties for leaking the information were indeed a bit too much. However, as long as confidentiality was maintained, those things would not happen. But what he didn't know was how much psychological trauma the contents of this contract had caused to the three naive girls.

"I won't say any more nonsense. As long as you sign this contract, nothing will be done to you. I didn't intend to bring you in because it would be troublesome to deal with the aftermath like this, but this is the boss's request, so there is no other way. Just sign it."

Xu Ke hesitated and said, "What if we really violated the above regulations?"

After hearing this, Situ Rui said bluntly: "Then follow the instructions above. We will follow the instructions to the extent that they are required."

"But we are Shen Zhao's friends!" Ma Shuyi felt that this was an unfair clause. He stood up excitedly and said it loudly to Situ Rui. When he realized that he had lost his composure, his face turned red and he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

"Indeed," Situ Rui said coldly, "Because you are Shen Zhao's friends, these things can't be kept secret for long. After all, she is going to be with the boss, so I brought you in this time to avoid other troubles in the future."

He spoke in a high-sounding manner, although his attitude was bad, but when Xu Ke calmed down and thought about it, it was indeed true. If Shen Zhao really lived in this huge manor, and the male owner looked seriously ill, it would not be difficult to infer the necessity of his doing so.

"Okay, I'll sign it." Xu Ke picked up a pen and signed his name on a contract readily.

"Xu Ke, why did you agree to it? We can just not sign!" Ma Shuyi was a little angry.

Xu Ke looked at Ma Shuyi and shook her head. "This is for Shen Zhao's own good. Besides, it will be fine if we don't say anything. Besides," she turned her head to look at the man who was still elegant even when he was sitting on the sofa, "Do you think we can leave this manor if we don't sign?"

Situ Rui laughed after hearing this. He didn't expect that the most insightful person among the three was the girl in front of him who was so scared that she wanted to cry but couldn't.

After a while, Situ Rui successfully received three signed contracts. He stood up and looked down at the three girls on the sofa. "Except for some locked places in the manor, you can move around freely. If you need anything, just tell the servants. You are a guest, so enjoy yourself."

Situ Rui turned around and was about to leave. Xu Ke stood up suddenly and asked, "Wait, when can we see Shen Zhao?"

Situ Rui glanced at the rooms on the second floor and said, "I guess I won't be able to see you tonight, so you can go home first or stay here, it's all fine."

When Xu Ke saw Situ Rui leaving with the documents, she felt as if all her strength was drained away and she suddenly fell down on the sofa. Fortunately, the sofa was cushioned with thick cushions, otherwise she would have been injured.

"Then what should we do now? Should we continue waiting?" Li Kui asked.

Xu Ke nodded firmly. "Although I don't know what's wrong with Shen Zhao's body, I will definitely wait here. If you have anything to do, you can go back first. That's what the man just said."

In the room on the second floor, Mu Yanchen stared anxiously at the person who was still unconscious on the bed. He looked gloomily at the doctor who was adjusting the equipment beside the bed, "What's wrong with her? When will she wake up?"

The family doctor is the best doctor in the manor other than Zhao Qing. Although he cannot cure the toxin problem in Mu Yanchen's body, he is very knowledgeable about other Western medical issues. When Zhao Qing is not around, he is the one who helps take care of Mu Yanchen's body most of the time, of course, according to Zhao Qing's instructions. This is the first time he has been summoned into the villa after Zhao Qing disappeared.

He has been with Mu Yanchen for many years and has seen many emotions in him. He is the kind of ruthless person who would not even cry out even if he was terminally ill and in great pain all over his body. Most of the time, people are humble and polite to him, and it is rare for him to be in a situation like this.

He nervously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Mr. Mu, please wait. I will check the young lady's brain waves."

"how long?"

"Well...it depends on the situation. It depends on whether the young lady's brain waves are disordered now..."

"Hurry!"

"Yes!"

The family doctor responded while working on the instrument, pressing the patch connected to the motor on the acupuncture points on Shen Zhao's head. Several bands soon appeared on the display screen, flashing fluorescent light, and vibrating up and down with a large amplitude, which could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

Mu Yanchen sat on the bed, holding Shen Zhao tightly in his big hands, and anxiously looked at the dazzling band on the screen, "What do you mean?"

The family doctor could see that Mu Yanchen valued the woman on the bed, and he broke out in a cold sweat, but he still said, "I just did a basic physical examination on the young lady. Her body is fine, but her head." He pointed to his head, "She seems to be caught in a melee. Look here."

He pointed at the wave bands on the screen and said, "Normally our brain signals won't fluctuate so strongly unless we are stimulated. But hers is very obvious. The two wave bands even intersect. This can easily lead to mental disorder."

Mu Yanchen became impatient listening to his explanation. He raised his eyes, and his dark pupils reflected the appearance of the family doctor, which was dark inside. The family doctor quickly lowered his head. The feeling of oppression was too scary.

"Now we can only give her a sedative injection and some medicine to block electrical signals, and then see if she can wake up on her own. If she can, we still need to find out more about why she got into this mess."

He shook his head, his face full of confusion. "Normally, this wouldn't happen to normal people, unless they have a history of mental illness... It's really strange..."

He walked out of the room, puzzled. He had to prepare the medicine for the young lady.

Mu Yanchen stared at the person on the bed with a serious look. If this person was the real Shen Zhao, such a problem would certainly not have occurred, but she is no longer the same. Moreover, that person had been hypnotized by them, and one of her memories was even fabricated. If there was really some stimulation, it would explain why she became like this now.

He pulled her hand against his lips, kissed the back of her hand over and over again, and rubbed it tenderly with his cheek. "Wake up quickly and come back to me. You can't go anywhere unless I allow you to..."
