The butler, upon hearing this, did not dare to delay and immediately went to retrieve the surveillance tape...
In the Blue Mountain Villa, there actually was a very complete surveillance system, but when it was first being installed, Ou Mucen, who lived in Orchid Garden, did not like his privacy being invaded and thus refused its installation.
What he didn’t know, however, was that although he had refused, for many years now, the old man had still secretly installed a few hidden cameras around his garden, and what the butler was fetching now was the footage captured by those cameras.
The surveillance tape was quickly brought in, and the old man, upon seeing it, went to the study and asked the butler to insert the tape into the computer.
Indeed, once the tape was inserted, a blurry image soon appeared on the screen.
"Master, it seems quite unclear, it looks like we should replace this camera," the butler also realized and hurriedly fetched his master’s reading glasses.
With the reading glasses on, the image on the screen started to become more active. The displayed time was around ten minutes past nine, when a figure appeared first.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Sister Wang!
Sister Wang was, at that time, going to find a doctor for Ye Ning, which coincided with the moment Bai Tingfang was in Bamboo Garden interrogating the servants about the photo leak.
After Sister Wang left, and another half an hour passed, finally there was more movement in the image.
The fuzzy entrance of the courtyard showed a figure in cotton clothes and a hat, who pushed the door open, stepped out, and then stood still for a while with stumbling and somewhat stiff legs. Moments later, she took a mask from her person, put it on, and then started to walk towards the villa’s main gate with her not-so-agile legs, step by step, on the screen.
The butler, watching in front of the screen, suddenly widened his eyes, "Master, this... this..."
He was just so astonished that he stammered several times without managing to finish a proper sentence!
Yes, that figure, although covered up thoroughly, the moment she put on the mask, he had seen her eyes, and her eyes belonged to the very person their young master was frantically searching for outside.
This was too bizarre; how could it be possible?
The butler simply could not believe his own eyes!
Similarly, the old master was watching and also recognized the figure, but oddly, he did not show a surprised and shocked expression like the butler, instead, he appeared very calm.
However, when he saw that this figure had actually left here after he had, his brows quickly knitted together!
Finally awake, is she? Where is she going?
His murky eyes stayed fixed on the figure until she eventually disappeared from the video, only then did he sit there, his face tense, his expression stiff, as if suddenly confronted with a very tricky issue, becoming extremely grim.
"Quickly send someone to find her, remember, not a word of this to the young master!"
The butler was taken aback, "Not tell the young master? What does the master mean by...?"
"Don’t let her appear in this city again, and don’t let her appear before the young master! Otherwise, I’ll have your head!" With those words, the old man stood up abruptly and walked away.
The butler remained standing there dumbfounded, and after a while, the blood drained from his face, turning it deathly pale!
Since when had the master become so fierce?!!
