After Xu Shiqing returned to the villa, she was in panic all day long. This was the first time that she personally killed someone.

Especially when the hot news broke that the car had been salvaged and the identity of the deceased had been identified, her inner uneasiness became even deeper.

She walked to the wine cabinet, poured a glass of wine, and drank it in one go to build up her courage.

After she returned to the villa last night, she had burned the clothes she was wearing and specially took a bath with essential oil, fearing that Eric would smell something wrong when he arrived.

The door was suddenly pushed open, which startled Xu Shiqing. Her hand that was pouring wine shook and the red wine poured onto the cabinet.

"What are you feeling guilty about?"

Eric walked up to Xu Shiqing, and she smiled awkwardly and responded, "Eric, you are really good at joking. What should I feel guilty about? Of course I will be startled if you suddenly open the door."

Xu Shiqing put the wine bottle on the cabinet and held Eric's hand, "You're here, why didn't you ask me to pick you up?"

"A surprise for you."

Eric raised his eyebrows, "But when I look at people, they seem to be only surprised, not happy."

"Who said that? I was pleasantly surprised. I thought you would arrive in the evening, but I didn't expect you to arrive now."

Xu Shiqing forced herself to calm down, holding Eric's hand and sitting on the sofa, "Are you tired? Do you want to take a bath first?"

"No need."

Eric waved Xu Shiqing's hand away, leaned closer to her, and sniffed her neck like a puppy, "Hmm? There's a different smell."

"I just changed to new essential oil. Does it smell good?"

Xu Shiqing's face was a little stiff, and she straightened her back and did not dare to move.

She had a guilty conscience. She had already washed herself so many times, but Eric could still smell the scent left by Gu Xingzhi?

"oh?"

Eric raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to pinch Xu Shiqing's chin, smelled it carefully, and then let go of her.

"I still like the smell of the essential oil you used before."

"Then I'll change it back."

Xu Shiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It seemed that Eric didn't notice anything.

Eric leaned back on the sofa and said in a relaxed tone, "Tell me, did anything interesting happen during your stay in Tingcheng these days?"

"I just stay in the villa every day waiting for you to come, what's the fun?"

Xu Shiqing stood up and sat on Eric's lap, hugged his neck, and said coquettishly, "I haven't been able to sleep well since you haven't been here these past few days."

Eric pushed Xu Shiqing to the sofa, "I don't like women sitting on my lap."

Xu Shiqing felt a little annoyed. She didn't care that Eric was a ***, but he was still very arrogant.

"Eric, when will the transaction take place?"

Xu Shiqing looked at her fingers, "Staying in this place where birds don't poop, I can't even try to get my nails done."

"Soon."

Eric only answered with two words, and Xu Shiqing did not dare to ask any more questions.

"The people I brought here have been placed, and the next five people will take shifts."

"good."

Xu Shiqing nodded. With Eric here, she didn't have to worry about this.

"I have arranged for people to do the shopping, and the chef will take over the food starting today."

Eric is very picky about food and takes his dedicated chef with him wherever he goes.

"good."

Xu Shiqing doesn't care, what she cares about is that the transaction will be completed quickly so that she can leave here.

Now that Gu Xingzhi's body has been discovered, the police will definitely start an investigation.

She regretted why she didn't pour some gasoline on him last night and burned him and the car directly.

…

During lunch time, Xu Shiqing sat at the dining table, looked at the tableware on the table, and curled her lips secretly.

Eric is kind of crazy and paranoid, and the tableware he uses must be carried with him.

There is a particular care in how the dishes are arranged on the dinner plate. If they are not arranged correctly, Eric will not eat them.

The chef has already served the dishes, all cooked according to Eric's preferences.

Xu Shiqing actually doesn't like to eat these dishes. Eric likes them to be vegetarian without a trace of meat, but she likes to eat meat.

But in front of Eric, she didn't dare to show it.

"Have a meal."

Eric picked up the chopsticks to pick up the food, and only then did Xu Shiqing dare to move the chopsticks.

Eat without talking, sleep without talking.

This is Eric's rule, and Xu Shiqing dare not violate it.

For a moment, the only sound in the restaurant was the sound of chopsticks hitting the plate.

Xu Shiqing ate vegetables without any oil or water, and couldn't understand why a rich man like Eric could live such a dull life.

She knew that Eric had two steady boyfriends and that in order to maintain his figure, he always paid attention to health.

She didn't dare to ask whether he was attacking or receiving. If she didn't, she would make him unhappy and he would kill her directly.

Originally, in this marriage, they each wanted what they wanted. Eric needed a wife who could hide himself from others, and she needed a backer.

"I'm stuffed."

Eric put down his chopsticks and waited for the chef to bring the fruit.

Xu Shiqing quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Only when Eric was full could she put down her chopsticks.

"Eric, what are your plans for the evening?"

Xu Shiqing looked at Eric, tapped his fingers on the dining table, and replied, "I want to go out."

"Do you want me to go with you?"

Xu Shiqing wanted to go back to the city to get some fresh air, but when Eric came, she didn't dare to go to the bar privately.

"Need not."

Eric glanced at Xu Shiqing, stood up and left.

Xu Shiqing was annoyed in her heart and did not dare to say anything on her face.

Back in the room, she clicked on her phone and looked through various theories about the case.

Netizens turned into Sherlock Holmes and expressed various opinions.

One of them caught her attention, "What does it mean that a man can be killed naked? It means that he is familiar with the murderer. The other party must be a woman, or a woman who has just had sex with him."

Xu Shiqing frowned. This message was completely on point, and there were many comments under his message.

Everyone focused on the ex-girlfriend, ex-wife, and lover as the suspect, and all they had to do was type her name.

She felt terrified. According to the reasoning of netizens, the police were not fools. What would they do if they found her?

Thinking of this, she began to feel uneasy, praying that the police would not find her.

…

It was late at night, but Eric was sitting on the shore, spinning his fishing rod slowly. His purpose was certainly not to fish.

After a long time, someone from the other side of the sea waved a flashlight at him, so he put away his fishing rod and went back to the villa.

Xu Shiqing was not asleep. She felt someone lying next to her and woke up immediately.

"Eric, you're back."

She sat up and looked at Eric, "Do you want me to give you a massage?"

"Need not."

Eric refused directly, "You can sleep on your own and don't worry about me."

"oh."

Xu Shiqing lay on the bed, closed her eyes, and forced herself to fall asleep.

Eric has always been so indifferent, she has long been used to it.

It was just that she felt guilty because of Gu Xingzhi's matter, so she was half asleep and half awake.

"Xu Shiqing, are you hiding something from me?"

Eric also noticed something was wrong with Xu Shiqing, and she quickly denied it, "I didn't."

"It's better not, otherwise I'll kill you."

Eric's threat made Xu Shiqing scared.
