Chapter 10: Are You Looking for Me?

A damp and unpleasant smell filled the air, causing her to furrow her brows lightly.

She tilted her head and glanced around the surroundings with a faint gaze.

The floor was covered in dust, and several large iron racks were piled with various miscellaneous items. The only empty space was in the corner of the left wall.

Gu Qingning walked over to the empty corner. The bedding and her backpack that had been laid there were nowhere to be found.

Her long and curled eyelashes drooped lightly, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of her rosy lips.

How interesting.

She hadn't even returned yet, but the drama had already begun.

Her gaze shifted and lingered on the large iron hammer hanging on the iron rack.

After a moment, she walked out of the warehouse, and now she had an iron hammer in her hand.

Relying on her memory, Gu Qingning avoided the servants and climbed up to the second floor through a window.

The French windows were slightly ajar for ventilation, not closed tightly.

Gu Qingning pushed open the window and walked into the bedroom leisurely.

With a carefree appearance, anyone who didn't know would think she was just strolling through the garden.

The bedroom was spacious, and luxury was visible everywhere.

Gu Qingning glanced at the wedding photos hanging on the wall. The man had a serious expression, while the woman wore a happy smile as she leaned against his arm. At first glance, they appeared somewhat compatible.

They all wore a mask of hypocrisy.

She looked away and casually placed the large iron hammer on the dressing table, then turned around and wandered around the bedroom.

Meanwhile, outside.

The butler was searching for her everywhere, nearly exhausted.

He had asked many servants, but they all claimed they hadn't seen Gu Qingning.

"Aunt Lin, have you seen Miss Qingning?" the butler asked, panting.

"Gu Qingning?" Aunt Lin frowned, her voice filled with disdain. "Didn't she disappear?"

"Miss Qingning just came back, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared again," the butler said.

Aunt Lin's face showed a hint of surprise. "She came back?"

That mute girl had returned. She needed to inform the madam right away.

The butler nodded and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "I don't know where she went. I've been searching for her but couldn't find her."

"Why don't you check the surveillance? It's a waste of time," Aunt Lin said dismissively.

One word brought the butler back to his senses. Surveillance!

He slapped his head, realizing that he had been confused by Miss Qingning earlier.

He hurriedly left, and Aunt Lin's thoughts shifted subtly. She quickly followed, saying, "I'll go with you."

As they walked halfway, they heard a loud voice approaching.

The butler stopped in his tracks, and upon closer inspection, it was the person guarding the surveillance room.

"Butler, something bad has happened!" The young man rushed up to him, his face even more distressed than bitter gourd.

"I just saw the surveillance footage. Gu Qingning took a big iron hammer from the warehouse and then climbed up to the second floor through the window."

A big iron hammer?

The butler's head buzzed.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" he snapped.

"I went to the restroom just now," the young man said, his face filled with a helpless expression.

How could he have expected that timid Gu Qingning would be so audacious?

"She climbed which window on the second floor?" Aunt Lin urgently asked.

"Yes, it's the window of Madam's bedroom," the young man stammered.

Aunt Lin's face turned pale. This was bad.

She turned around and ran, her excess flesh trembling.

"You useless thing, causing more trouble than good," the butler scolded and hurriedly followed Aunt Lin's direction.

Arriving on the second floor, everything was quiet.

However, the silence seemed even more abnormal.
