Chapter 616 Don’t You Think It’s Redundant?
Gu Chaoxi looked over at the voice, and the man also looked over at her and bowed slightly: "Second sister and Mingwei are here too."
He Ran is the eldest young master.
She narrowed her eyes subconsciously, not forgetting what she saw last night.
Two people went to look for this young master one night, and no one knew who he was, haha.
"Big brother, how come you have time to come to father's place?" She smiled, sat on the chair without moving, just watching the eldest young master walk in step by step.
Ji Ze laughed softly, also feeling strange: "Did you guys agree to come together today?"
After all, usually these children were not very willing to be close to him, but today, one by one, they came into his yard.
The eldest young master did not rush to answer Ji Ze's words. Instead, he looked at Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan.
"My second sister is free and came with my third brother, so I am free too. I wonder when the relationship between you two became so good?"
Ever since the Second Miss and the Fourth Master were born, the Second Concubine didn't like her children to be too close to the First Lady's children, so the relationship between the two has never been very good.
However, the eldest young master's words had no destructive effect on Gu Chaoxi.
She looked at the eldest young master who was approaching, and the corners of his mouth rose a little: "Where is the eldest brother? Why does he have such a good relationship with the fifth sister?"
They are not born from the same mother, but they have such a good relationship. Then it is understandable that the second young lady and the third young master have a good relationship, right?
The eldest young master stopped talking and turned to look at Ji Ze: "Is father feeling better today?"
He was lying on a recliner watching a few kids quarreling, but suddenly the topic shifted to himself. He couldn't help but cough twice, then nodded.
"Thanks to the boss's concern, I have indeed felt a lot lighter these past two days."
It looks like you're feeling better?
Gu Chaoxi glanced at Pei Yan silently, then looked at the eldest young master. What was the purpose of this man coming here at this time?
It doesn't look like it was Shen Yao who led the people away.
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard two light stomping sounds outside.
She blinked and stood up from the chair: "Since the eldest brother wants to talk to father, I won't disturb him here and go back first."
"Goodbye, father." After saying that, he didn't give anyone a chance and walked straight out.
Pei Yan was stunned for a moment, then he pretended to react and stood up.
"My eldest brother is talking to father, so I'll leave first." He turned around and immediately chased in the direction where Gu Chaoxi was walking: "Second sister, wait a moment!"
The two of them disappeared at the gate of the yard soon.
Ji Ze looked towards the gate of the yard, was stunned for a while, then raised his hand and rubbed his forehead.
"These two kids." He seemed to sigh, and then raised his hand and beckoned: "Boss, sit down."
As for what the two people were talking about, Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan, who were out, had no idea. After all, the two were anxious to go to the eldest young master's yard to check the situation.
As soon as I turned the corner, I ran into Shen Yao and Violet.
Shen Yao pulled Pei Yan's arm and took two quick steps forward, then turned his head to look at Gu Chaoxi who was following him.
"I don't know why he suddenly wanted to find Ji Ze, but I asked Qi Chuzhao to lead the people in the yard away. Now is a good opportunity."
Go to the eldest young master's yard and see what's going on.
Gu Chaoxi did not delay and even walked much faster: "Hurry up, who knows how long this guy and Ji Ze can chat."
If you just say something on the spur of the moment and quickly go back to the yard, it would be very embarrassing if you get caught.
And they didn't know what this guy was going to do. In short, they'd better move faster.
After entering the eldest young master's yard, Shen Yao closed the yard door for safety reasons, but did not bolt it from the inside.
Gu Chaoxi took a look and walked towards the corner of the room where the lights were on last night.
There is a square table here, and the chairs on both sides are facing the square table, but there seems to be nothing special in this corner.
To be honest, Gu Chaoxi was somewhat concerned about the painting hanging on the wall at the back.
It’s not that there’s something wrong with the painting, but the location where it’s hung is weird.
After entering this room and walking to the left, it is equivalent to the living room of the room. There is a long couch here, which can be used for taking a nap.
On the wall behind the couch, there was a very wide and long painting.
This painting basically takes up a large wall, and the left side is about half an arm's length away from the window in the yard.
There wasn't actually much space left on the right, but it was in this space that a long painting was hung.
Doesn't he feel it's redundant?
Unless the painting is hung here to cover up something, it makes no sense at all.
Gu Chaoxi raised his hand towards the painting and opened it.
The back wall doesn't look like anything special.
Pei Yan was also watching from the side. After all, it was hard not to notice such an incongruous place.
His eyes slid down and saw something on the square table: two candles.
These two candles have been placed on the table for what seems to be a long time, but the wax on top is facing downwards, probably the source of the light last night.
But what were he and that dark shadow doing sitting here?
Moreover, the light source appeared suddenly. At the beginning, the lights in the yard were out. It was strange to light a candle when there was clearly a light.
Pei Yan raised his hand and touched his chin, then bent down and looked under the table.
The thickness of this table is about as wide as a palm, which means it is not very convenient to move.
Placing such a heavy table in the corner, it is obvious that no one intended to move it, but what is the meaning of that discordant painting?
Gu Chaoxi walked forward, then turned around and sat down on the chair near the couch.
He leaned back and, relying on his sense, raised his hand to touch the painting on the wall behind him.
His fingers touched the surface of the painting and he groped slowly along it. If he stretched his arm further, he would be able to touch the column supporting the house next to the painting.
The pillars were smooth and bare of anything.
If the mechanism is not on the painting at the back, then where could it be?
As she was thinking, her toes tapped the ground twice unconsciously. Suddenly, she felt something and leaned her lower legs back, looking down at the chair she was sitting on.
He stood up slightly and raised his hand to move the chair a little.
"Boom." It seemed as if there was an extra wall where the painting was originally hung. It protruded outwards and then rotated slightly from the middle.
From the door that opens in the middle, you can see the dark passage inside.
Pei Yan was stunned for only a moment, then picked up the candle on the table.
Shen Yao also came over with the matches he found on another table.
