”No, Uncle Xiao. I'm right here.” Han Yong hesitated for a moment before saying, ”I only called you. There don't seem to be any trace of outsiders invading this place.”

Outsiders wouldn't cook noodles. Furthermore, Han Yong was certain that Silent Red's cooking skills wouldn't produce such a horrible noodles. He tasted the remaining soup, which caused his tongue to go numb.

Xiao Yuelin hung up, but hesitated. He knew that at this time, not to mention Han Yong and himself, even ten strong men might not necessarily be able to subdue Xiao Menghan. Inform Xiao Zhenhai? Xiao Yuelin remembered his father's resolute expression last time.

This time, no one told Xiao Yuelin that he had asked the guard to buy some things for him to drive away. He didn't drive the car, but changed into casual clothes and put on a baseball cap, then went to the car store to rent a car and drive himself there. Xiao Yuelin drove the car to the edge of the forest and parked it there.

Han Yong stood at the villa entrance, waiting for Xiao Yuelin. When he saw Xiao Yuelin, he immediately went to open the door for him. Han Yong was shocked that he didn't recognize that it was the dignified Xiao Yuelin.

”Uncle Xiao?”

”Mm, come with me.” He squinted his eyes as he looked at the villa in front of him. He had to admit that this son of his was very outstanding. Just the structure and design of this villa was enough to make him and the Xiao family admire him greatly.

However, there was no way to remove the poison from Xiao Meng Han's body, it was just like a ticking time bomb.

Xiao Yuelin did not go to the villa. Based on his speculation towards Xiao Meng Han's childhood character, the cage that imprisoned him, Xiao Meng Han, would not be built in the villa, nor would it have a secret room built into the walls of the villa.

”He's probably underground.” Xiao Yuelin's foot stomped on the ground a few times, then looked around. He would not be in front of the villa, because he had parked the car back and forth and Xiao Menghan was being very careful, Xiao Yuelin took a big step and walked towards the back of the villa.

”Do you think he could have built it in the garden, or under the trees?” Han Yong felt that those places were good places to hide.

Xiao Yuelin overthrew it and told Han Yong, ”Meng Han was very meticulous since he was young. He could have built a basement, and it would be very ventilated and sturdy. Even if we knew where it was, we might not be able to break in.”

Behind the villa was a fountain with a large statue of a lion standing next to it.

Han Yong thought that was impossible. Was the basement beneath the pool? Xiao Yuelin carefully studied the fountain. This fountain could very well be the basement's ventilation area. He walked around and didn't find any suspicious ventilation areas.

”Uncle Xiao?”

”It'll be much easier if I find a vent.” Xiao Yuelin wandered around for a bit. He really felt like returning to the army to get a thermal detector. But if he did that, it would alarm someone else.

Han Yong's hand knocked on the statue. If there was a basement, then there should be a switch!

In the basement, Jing Xiaoxiao was sleeping soundly. She was too tired and had been on alert the entire time. However, she finally could not resist the exhaustion and fell asleep on the floor.

The man who was sleeping on the floor opened his eyes and raised his head vigilantly to look up. He slowly got up and carefully moved his feet so that he did not wake up Jing Xiaoxiao. He pressed his ear to the top of the basement wall and listened attentively.

He could clearly hear the footsteps outside, and their conversation. His hearing was sharp, and he didn't like people other than her. He clenched his hands into fists and swore to himself that he would protect her from being taken away from him.
