I failed again

When Qi Anyan heard the butler coming to inform him that the master wanted everyone to gather in the hall, he had a bad feeling. After the butler left, he immediately packed his things and prepared to leave early.

The Xie family is already on full alert, and it is extremely difficult for him to leave now.

Qi Anyan was a little confused. He had hidden very well, and Xie Zhixuan hadn't shown any sign of discovering him before. How could he suddenly do this?

Qi Anyan carefully avoided the patrolling bodyguards, recalled the structural diagram of the Xie family in his mind, and thought about how to get out.

Xie Family Hall.

Xie Zhixuan sat on the sofa, looking at the huge crowd of servants in front of him, and asked the housekeeper, "Is everyone here?"

The housekeeper replied, "We are still short of a gardener, he should be on his way."

Hearing this, Xie Zhixuan stood up and walked out, and his men followed him immediately.

"Give the order to keep guard tightly. The people are already at Xie's house. If you don't catch them, you don't have to do it anymore." Xie Zhixuan said as he walked.

"Yes, yes, yes." The men nodded repeatedly, "I promise I won't let him get away again."

If Qi Anyan really ran away under such circumstances, the head of the family would not have the face to continue working for him, even without him saying anything.

They arrived at the door of the greenhouse. The lights in the greenhouse were off and they could not see what was going on inside from the outside.

The men cautiously went forward and opened the door, but there was no one inside.

He turned on the light and stepped aside to let Xie Zhixuan in.

Xie Zhixuan took a look at the room. There was only a table, a chair and a bed, nothing else.

The bedding on the bed was messy, indicating that the person inside had left in a hurry.

The men took a few steps forward and opened the bathroom door. There was a middle-aged man lying inside with his hands and feet tied and a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth.

He dragged the man out, untied him, and took the cloth out of his mouth.

"Master...Master..." The man looked at Xie Zhixuan tremblingly.

"When was he kidnapped?" Xie Zhixuan asked.

“I’m not… sure… about the time. I just… know that I was tied up for a long time.” The man said, “I was watering the flowers in the garden that day when I was suddenly knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I was tied up.”

"My captors sometimes came to feed me a little to keep me from starving to death, and then they stuffed a ball of cloth into my mouth again."

Xie Zhixuan was silent after hearing his last words. When did Qi Anyan become so kind? He even fed people?

He also thought that based on Qi Anyan's previous style of doing things, he would kill the person and take over the other person's identity.

Who would have thought that not only did he not use force, but just knocked the man unconscious and tied him up, he would also feed the man?

Has Qi Anyan changed his personality?

"Okay, take him down." Xie Zhixuan waved his hand.

The men immediately stepped forward and took the man away.

Xie Zhixuan took another look at the room before turning around and leaving.

"Don't guard some places too tightly, or they will leave some loopholes." Xie Zhixuan ordered.

"Yes." The subordinate immediately understood and went down to do it.

Qi Anyan hid while looking for a breakthrough, but every place was guarded tightly and it was difficult to break through in a short time.

He was also a little anxious. If he continued like this, it would not be long before he would be blocked by Xie Zhixuan's men, and it would be even more difficult to escape.

When he arrived at the exit of the north gate, Qi Anyan found that the guards here were a little weaker than in other places, and was about to go out from here.

But then he thought again, he felt that something was wrong. He had just been here, and the guards here were very strict. How come it became like this in just a short while?

I'm afraid this was a trap set by Xie Zhixuan just to lure him into his trap.

But he had no other choice. Xie Zhixuan had sent out several dogs to search for him. If he ran to another exit now, he might run into them head-on.

We can only fight hard.

Thinking of this, Qi Anyan took advantage of the cover of the surrounding trees and approached the guards quietly.

When he was about to get close, Qi Anyan heard the sound of a bullet hitting the air behind him. He tilted his body and the bullet grazed his arm and hit the door.

Qi Anyan didn't hesitate at all and directly attacked the person guarding the door. The bullet came again. This time Qi Anyan didn't dodge and the bullet hit his right hand. At the same time, the last person was also killed by him.

As Qi Anyan ran towards the door, he shot the knife in his hand towards the person in the dark.

After walking out of the door, Qi Anyan stopped and stood still when he saw Xie Zhixuan standing in front of him with his men.

Xie Zhixuan looked at the person in front of him. Blood was flowing down from his right hand, and much of it dripped onto the ground. Soon, a pool of blood gathered on the ground, but the man was so calm, as if he was not the one bleeding.

That's true. After all, the person in front of him was a ruthless guy who dared to stab him and sent him to the ICU. This little wound on his arm shouldn't be a problem for him.

"Not running anymore?" Xie Zhixuan asked jokingly.

Qi Anyan clenched the knife in his left hand and sneered, "If you want me to run, you should withdraw all the people and stop blocking me here."

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan with a half-smile and said, "Anyan, it will do you no good to argue at this time."

Before Qi Anyan could say anything, Xie Zhixuan said, "Also, take that thing off your face. I still prefer to see your original face."

When Qi Anyan heard this, he rolled his eyes at him.

Xie Zhixuan was so angry at his attitude that he just picked up the gun and shot at Qi Anyan's left hand.

The knife in Qi Anyan's hand fell directly to the ground. The bodyguards around him took this opportunity to step forward and control Qi Anyan, forcing him to kneel on the ground.

Xie Zhixuan walked closer step by step, "I talked to you nicely but you didn't listen, and you forced me to do it."

Coming in front of Qi Anyan, Xie Zhixuan reached out and stroked his face for a few times, then grabbed the edge of the human skin mask and tore it off directly, revealing Qi Anyan's originally delicate and flawless face.

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan's pale face due to excessive blood loss, and felt uncomfortable.

Xie Zhixuan tried his best to ignore the distress in his heart, and directly ordered his men to take Qi Anyan to the basement and lock him up, and then left.

Qi Anyan was tied up and thrown into the basement, with blood still flowing from his arms. Qi Anyan took a look and felt that he would die from excessive blood loss within half an hour.

However, he was not worried at all. After all, considering how much Xie Zhixuan hated him, he would not let himself die so easily. He would definitely have someone treat his wounds so that he could still be alive and be tortured by him.

Tsk, I might as well just die.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xie Zhixuan walked in with a man dressed like a doctor.

"Treat his wound, don't let him die." Xie Zhixuan said sternly, "No need for anesthesia, just take out the bullet directly."

Qi Anyan watched the thing in the doctor's hand go deep into his flesh to search for the bullet. He was sweating from the pain, but he still bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from crying out in pain.

Qi Anyan was thinking about finding something to divert his attention so that he wouldn't focus too much on the wound.

Looking at Xie Zhixuan standing in front of him, Qi Anyan asked weakly, "How did you suddenly find out that I was hiding in Xie's house?"

This is what puzzled Qi Anyan the most. He hid it very secretly, and Xie Zhixuan hadn't discovered it for such a long time. How could he suddenly discover it tonight?

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan, who was sweating profusely, and replied in a good mood, "Bai Ci told me."

Qi Anyan's pupils shrank drastically. He really didn't expect that it was Bai Ci who leaked his information.

Moreover, I was hiding here and even An Jingcheng didn’t know, so how did Bai Ci know?

Qi Anyan was puzzled.

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan with interest and asked, "I'm a little curious, how did you offend Bai Ci, and why is he targeting you so much?"

Qi Anyan didn't reply to him. He didn't know how he had offended Bai Ci, causing that guy to suddenly attack him like crazy.

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan without saying anything, walked up to him, pinched his chin, and lifted his head, "Aren't you going to answer? Anyan." The last two words were so affectionate that Qi Anyan got goose bumps all over his body.

"I don't know how to reply to you?" Qi Anyan said weakly.

Xie Zhixuan's thumb gently brushed across Qi Anyan's pale lips, "Do you really not know or do you not want to say it?"

Qi Anyan didn't reply to him, but just opened his mouth and bit his thumb.

Xie Zhixuan felt pain and pulled his hand back with force, but Qi Anyan had already bitten his hand and it was bleeding.

"The teeth are quite sharp." As he said that, Xie Zhixuan stretched out his other hand and pressed hard on the wound on Qi Anyan's left hand. Qi Anyan groaned.

Xie Zhixuan withdrew his hand, took out a tissue and wiped the blood off his hand, and said, "An Yan, it will not do you any good to anger me now. You'd better learn your lesson."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After the doctor treated Qi Anyan's wound, he quickly packed up everything and left.

Qi Anyan moved to the wall with difficulty and leaned against it, not knowing what Xie Zhixuan was going to do next.

The basement was very cold, and Qi Anyan was injured and weak, with his hands and feet tied. Qi Anyan could only curl himself up as much as possible to avoid being so cold.

This is Xie Zhixuan.

After Xie Zhixuan came out of the basement, he didn't go back to his room, but just sat in the living room.

After a while, the private doctor came out of the basement and reported to Xie Zhixuan, "Master, everything has been handled."

Xie Zhixuan nodded and said, "I see. Thank you for your hard work. Go back and have a rest."

The doctor also left somewhat exhausted.

Xie Zhixuan didn't know why he continued to sit in the living room, nor how long he had been sitting there before he stood up and walked slowly towards the basement.
