In these two days, Yan Xiao had guaranteed that she would make the Chu Family eat three meals a day. Even if they had to deal with Yan Xiao while holding back their bad intentions, they still wished for Yan Xiao and the others to get out of here as soon as possible.

Even though it looked like it had only been two days, Chu Huaizhi and the others seemed to be tired for a month.

Two days wasn't a long time, when Chu Huaizhi and the others finally heaved a sigh of relief. Tomorrow, they would finally be able to send Yan Xiao and the group of gods of pests away, and would be able to have a good night's sleep.

In a night where the moon was bright and the stars were quiet, Yan Xiao changed into a set of black clothes and quietly left her courtyard.

She quickly rushed past the main courtyard and entered the small path that looked as dark as a black hole in the night. However, after rushing in, Yan Xiao immediately turned around and struck out with her palm.

And this palm was aimed at the person following Yan Xiao into the small alley. The person swung her arm, and within her sleeves, there seemed to be the universe.

Yan Xiao was startled, but she did not panic, and wanted to attack again.

The person opened his mouth: It's me, Jian Mo. The low voice was indeed Jian Mo.

At this time, Jian Mo also walked out of the darkness, his slender figure became even more imposing with his tight clothes. Jian Mo was wearing his usual clothes, and he did not change into his tight clothes, so it should have been because Yan Xiao changed his clothes on purpose earlier.

"Why are you out so late?"

The path was surrounded by long, slanted branches, and it was rather lush. Gradually, it formed a natural layer that covered the top, blocking most of the moonlight. As a result, the path was especially dark.

On such a dark path, Jian Mo could only faintly make out Yan Xiao: "You're not sleeping at such a late hour, and you want to stroll around this small path?"

Yan Xiao: "So what if I am, I like it!"

Jian Mo: "I can't fall asleep either, why not let me accompany you."

"No need. Go back first."

Jian Mo sighed: "You can deal with it, but what if you meet with trouble? You can still have a helper."

Yan Xiao was silent for a moment, without saying anything, she turned and left, and Jian Mo immediately followed.

Yan Xiao and Jian Mo, together, one person paid attention to the front and one person behind him, paying attention to the movements behind him. After that, they carefully and meticulously searched all the hidden courtyards in the Chu Residence, Jian Mo did not know what Yan Xiao was looking for, but she was unable to find anything.

In the end, Jian Mo was unable to find what he was looking for, but Jian Mo realized that he had purposely deviated from the main courtyard, where Chu Huaizhi's family lived.

"The main courtyard isn't being searched?"

Jian Mo ran back and forth as well without any complaints. This caused Yan Xiao's gloomy expression to turn better, and the two of them did not immediately return to their respective rooms. Instead, they first found a hidden place and Yan Xiao's indifferent tone: "Are you not curious what I'm looking for?"

Jian Mo said: "Do you want to say?"

Yan Xiao said with a complicated smile, "There's nothing that I can't say either. I've always suspected that my mother isn't dead yet."

"Do you think she's still hiding in the Chu Residence?" According to Yan Xiao, more than a decade had passed. When Yan Xiao was almost burnt to death, even if his mother stayed back, she would not have a good time. In Jian Mo's opinion, the probability of survival was not high: "Then why not not go to the main courtyard?"

If he protected Yan Xiao's mother's life for more than ten years, wouldn't he have just let his go?

Yan Xiao looked at the dark and heavy night. There were very few stars in the sky today, and the air was unspeakably heavy, as if it was resonating with her mood. "No, it won't be in the main courtyard!"

"Whether or not Hong Yan framed my mother all those years ago, I am not sure. However, there is one thing that is important, my mother is a beautiful woman, she would definitely not place my mother near Chu Huaizhi.

This point, Yan Xiao's guess was completely correct.

Perhaps many would say that the most dangerous place was also the safest place.

What happened that year, Yan Xiao didn't know all of it, and only heard his master's words. But based on what she had said to the servants of Chu Residence previously, any woman that Chu Huaizhi doted on, would think of all ways to get rid of his or become harmless.

If such a woman was placed in front of his eyes, even if she hid her in the dungeon and other places, she was afraid that if by chance, Chu Huaizhi found out and pampered her again, what would she do? Therefore, Hong Yan would not put her mother under her nose.

Moreover, the main courtyard was Hong Yan's territory, it was her place to control her life the most, and it wouldn't let her mother display some kind of demonstration.

If there were no people in the Chu Residence, then either her mother was dead or Hong Yan had hidden her in a special secret location. That place should not be in the Chu Residence, but where could it be?

Yan Xiao was still unwilling to believe that her mother was dead. She pursed his lips tightly, if her mother was truly dead, then she would not just make Chu Residence and the rest suffer so much that they would fall flat on their backs …

Jian Mo was silent for a moment, as he stretched out his arm, but when his arm reached towards Yan Xiao's shoulder, he stiffened where he stood, and did not let go.

However, when he revealed a faint moonlight, he still released his arm when he saw Yan Xiao's current low pressure. Then, he wrapped his arm around Yan Xiao and pulled him into her embrace.

Yan Xiao was stunned and was about to struggle free, when she suddenly said: "What you said makes a lot of sense. With the degree of Hong Yan hating you, your mother might still be alive."

Yan Xiao was startled, and felt that it made sense.

Back then, she was still a newborn baby, and using Hong Yan's scheme against her mother as a reason, Hong Yan wanted her to die and torture her mother. But she was saved by her master, and in the blink of an eye, fifteen years had passed.

She still remembered when Hong Yan had bumped into her on the street and fiercely insulted and cursed at her ear. With a single glance, she saw someone that looked similar to her mother, and that had caused such a huge reaction from Hong Yan.

Initially, Chu Huaizhi really wanted to burn her to ashes, but the moment he saw her, he was shocked and resentful. Hong Yan's reaction was very abnormal.

What kind of hatred could cause Hong Yan to hate him for so long?

It was that this hatred was constantly increasing, and it could make her remember it so clearly.

However, Hong Yan had been controlling the internal affairs of the Chu Residence. It was too easy for her to send her mother away while she was hiding things.

When Yan Xiao thought here, her heart felt much better. She no longer had any intention to struggle free, and instead, used Jian Mo to hug her, causing her head to directly hit Jian Mo's chest twice: "It's all thanks to you reminding me this time, otherwise I would have been dead meat."

Jian Mo's face softened: You don't need to thank me, then what do you think?

Yan Xiao raised his head and laughed: "You forgot, I still have a secret weapon!"
