After finding the switch, a "click" echoed, and the lights in the villa snapped on. With caution, Ren Yushi scanned his surroundings as he advanced into the interior.
The spacious living room was empty, but it was clear that the villa wasn’t abandoned; someone must have been cleaning regularly, otherwise, it couldn’t have been so immaculate.
"Qin Yanbo!" Ren Yushi had no patience for playing a game of cat and mouse with Qin Yanbo and called out loudly.
However, after Ren Yushi had called out, there was no reply. He glanced upstairs, unsure if Qin Yanbo was there.
Just as Ren Yushi was about to head upstairs, he noticed a small door at the foot of the staircase, which was left slightly ajar.
If he hadn’t been extra vigilant that night, he might never have noticed that hidden door.
Ren Yushi approached and, upon pushing the door open, he saw a faint light shifting in the darkness.
A sense of tightness gripped Ren Yushi’s heart, and he speculated that Qin Yanbo might be inside.
When Ren Yushi pushed the door open and stepped inside, he could faintly hear sounds. He followed the staircase down step by step and found himself in an underground room.
It was called an underground room, but visually, it resembled a bedroom more than anything else.
The light he had dimly seen from above was from a projector’s light, reflected inside the room.
Right there in the projector, surveillance footage of his encounter with Ye Shiying was playing.
He had always known about this surveillance footage; it was what Ayun had left behind to threaten him.
But now, it was in Qin Yanbo’s hands!
Ren Yushi looked at the person sitting in front of the projection on the couch. At the moment, Qin Yanbo’s back was to him, and he could only see the back of Qin Yanbo’s head.
Ren Yushi clenched his fists tightly, contemplating if he should confront him now...
"I actually thought you wouldn’t come," said Qin Yanbo suddenly.
Ren Yushi was yanked back to reality, his heartbeat racing. He blinked, still staring at the back of Qin Yanbo’s head.
Qin Yanbo was presumably holding a remote because the underground room suddenly lit up, allowing Ren Yushi to see the entire room clearly.
The underground room’s layout truly resembled a bedroom, complete with a large bed followed by a washroom and a bathroom.
What felt discordant was a large mirror on the wall between the washroom and bathroom, facing directly towards the bed.
There was also a simple clothes rack with several white bathrobes and a variety of ladies’ lingerie.
The room gave off an overly intimate vibe.
Ren Yushi already had his answer in his heart.
He hadn’t understood these things before, but then he met Ayun, and Ayun...
"Ren Yushi, if you must blame someone for this situation, blame that bitch He Qingyun," Qin Yanbo said, as he stood up and turned to face Ren Yushi.
Ren Yushi stared at Qin Yanbo, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "So, what do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do?" Qin Yanbo repeated the question, then started to laugh, "You guys first made a move on my brother, and now on me—shouldn’t that question be mine to ask you?"
Thinking that Yansen was already dead, and now that he was at his wits’ end, Qin Yanbo couldn’t control the violent streak inside him!
