After hearing Nian Nian's doubts, she immediately raised her head and looked at Lord Huos.
But she caught him deliberately avoiding her.
Faced with constant questioning every year, Sir Huo Sijue made an excuse at random: "I wasn't looking at your mommy, I was looking at the wall painting behind her."
Gu Shinian: "?"
As if to hide something, Sir Huo Si suddenly said to Amber: "Amber, that wall painting is too tacky."
"Sir, I'll have it replaced tomorrow."
Gu Shinian believed it to be true.
After dinner.
Gu Shinian directly soaked himself in Lord Huo Si's study.
He also pulled mommy and asked her to tell him a story.
Sir Huo Si also stayed with Gu Shinian in the study for a while.
Not long after, he was called away by a phone call.
After Gu Wanyao watched Lord Huos go away, she watched in the corridor as Lord Huos left Jueyunju, and then turned around and returned to the study.
Every year, she cooperates with Gu Wanyao and closes the study door.
Gu Wanyao quickly walked to the hidden compartment of the bookshelf.
"Click."
However, before she could move the secret compartment, the door suddenly opened.
The person who came in was Amber.
Gu Wanyao immediately pretended to take a book and read it casually.
"Hu Hu, why didn't you knock on the door when you entered the study?" Gu Shinian looked at Hu Hu angrily.
Moreover, Amber still holds the key in her hand.
Amber must have opened the door with a key just now.
Amber looked at Gu Shinian innocently: "Young Master, didn't I come in directly before?"
Because she thought the young master was just a child, she didn't pay much attention to these details.
Without waiting for Shinian to answer her, Hu Huo said hurriedly: "Since the young master doesn't like it, I will pay attention in the future and knock on the door before entering."
"Um."
Gu Shinian then responded softly.
Because he would often keep an eye on Lord Hoss and do some things to supervise Lord Hoss.
Therefore, Amber had the habit of looking for him directly without knocking on the door. He had actually wanted to say it for a long time.
Afterwards, Amber walked up to Gu Shinian and placed a plate of snacks in front of Gu Shinian: "This is the perilla snail skewers I made for you, young master, please remember to eat it."
"Okay, you go out first, mommy and I want to read a book."
"OK."
After Feicui stepped back, Gu Wanyao quickly put the book back on the bookshelf.
Gu Shinian simply blocked the door at the door, which would make it easier for Mommy to do things.
This time, Gu Wanyao successfully opened the secret compartment.
However, she didn't see the caramel-colored box at all.
The dark room was empty.
Gu Wanyao's mind went blank for a moment.
She remembered that this was where she saw the box five years ago.
Could it be that her behavior that night aroused Lord Hoss's suspicion, so he moved the things?
"Mommy, how's it going?"
Gu Wanyao looked at Gu Shinian disappointedly: "The thing is missing."
"ah?"
"I suspect that I broke into the study through the window that night and made Lord Hoss suspicious, so he moved the things."
No wonder Lord Howth would agree so easily when he proposed to put the books in the study every year.
Gu Shinian was actually a little happy when he learned that the thing was missing.
Subconsciously, he didn't seem to have the strong desire to bring retribution to his father as before.
Precisely because he was monitoring daddy's every move in the study.
He saw with his own eyes that his father would often stare at mommy's photos in a daze, and would often carefully take care of the flowers that mommy had raised before.
Even, Daddy was in a daze in the study that day, and all the blank pages were written with Mummy's name.
Gu Shinian couldn't believe more and more that a man who showed deep affection for his mother would do such a thing five years ago.
Gu Shinian secretly made up his mind that he would investigate what happened five years ago as soon as possible in a way that was invisible to the ghost.
If the man named He Chong can be found, things should become clear soon.
After sitting down opposite Gu Wanyao, Gu Shinian curiously asked Gu Wanyao...
