It hurts so much... That was Shen Zhao’s last feeling before he fell into coma.

Xu Ke and the others called an ambulance, but what arrived was a group of people in suits, all with stern faces. In the middle came a man in a white coat, who looked like a doctor. Under the doctor's command, the men in black lifted Shen Zhao onto a stretcher and then steadily put her into the car.

A man in a British-style suit followed behind. He bowed politely to Xu Ke and the others and said, "Thank you for calling an ambulance for my lady. If you are worried, I invite you to come with me."

Xu Ke and the others wanted to refuse, but Ma Shuyi grabbed her arm tightly and pretended to be calm and said to Situ Rui: "Then thank you for your help."

Situ Rui shook his head, "Not a problem at all."

The car was moving very fast. They were sitting in an inconspicuous sedan following the car in front, which was carrying Shen Zhao.

The original uneasy and nervous mood slowly dissipated, leaving only the worry about Shen Zhao. Xu Ke and the others had always thought that Shen Zhao lived in that old residential building, but unexpectedly, her family even had a housekeeper and a private doctor. This day was not just a shock of results.

Situ Rui glanced at a few people in the rearview mirror, taking in the girls' little thoughts, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips. He had consulted his boss before, and if this caused any sensation later, he would not be able to do anything about it.

The car quickly entered the manor, and Shen Zhao was carried into the villa by the men in black. Xu Ke and the others followed closely behind. Although they knew that these people would not do anything to her, they still couldn't help but worry and had no intention of paying attention to anything in the manor.

Mu Yanchen had been waiting in the room for a long time. God knows what state he was in when he first received the news that Shen Zhao was unconscious. He tightly controlled his violent impulse and did not rush to the school immediately by car. Instead, he sent a group of people led by Situ Rui to meet them.

Fortunately, Situ Rui lived up to everyone's expectations.

The door of the room was open from the inside. Xu Ke and the others followed the man in black all the way up to the second floor. When they arrived in front of the room, they all stopped and saw the man in the oil painting standing up from the chair and rushing towards the door. He seemed not to see them, and only had eyes for Shen Zhao.

He moved quickly, bending down and picking up the unconscious Shen Zhao from the stretcher, and then returned to the room without even looking at them. The man in the white coat also entered the room, and then closed the door from the inside, blocking them outside the room.

Situ Rui touched his forehead, still smiling. He looked at the stunned little girls and said, "You are Shen Zhao's friends. You must be tired on the way. Go downstairs and take a rest. When Shen Zhao wakes up, you can come and see her."

Having said that, Situ Rui was actually not sure whether Mu Yanchen would release Shen Zhao after he woke up, but he was still good at making promises and could easily fool a few young girls.

Xu Ke's face was filled with worry, "Will Shen Zhao be okay?"

Situ Rui didn't expect that this girl would be difficult to deal with. "Did you see the man in the white coat just now?"

Xu Ke nodded, and Situ Rui continued, "This is my husband's personal doctor, and he is the best," except for Shen Zhao and Zhao Qing, "so what else do you have to worry about? Can you provide better medical resources?"

When Xu Ke heard him say this, her face immediately turned red. She couldn't have imagined that the person in front of her would mock them so rudely. Since entering this manor, this person seemed to no longer want to pretend.

She pursed her lips, pulled the stunned Ma Shuyi and Li Kui and followed the servants downstairs.

They sat trembling on the sofa in the living room. Now that they had calmed down, they looked around. The decoration was luxurious yet low-key. The old ornaments on the wall, the exquisite porcelain and handicrafts on the wooden trays, the soft and finely crafted carpet on the floor... all indicated endless financial resources.

Seeing this, they didn't even dare to step on the carpet for fear of getting it dirty.

"Have you heard that Shen Zhao's family is so rich?" Ma Shuyi saw the servant walk away and Situ Rui did not follow, so he mustered up the courage to ask in a low voice.

Xu Ke and Li Kui both shook their heads.

"Xu Ke, aren't you the one who is most familiar with Shen Zhao?" Li Kui looked over.

"It's like this. We've been together since we entered school, but I remember that her home is indeed in an old neighborhood. But this year, I did see her getting out of a low-key sedan, but the car had no logo, so I just thought it was an online car-hailing service she called, so I didn't pay much attention. But now that I think about it, it was a special car-hailing service at that time." Xu Ke buried his head in his knees, leaving only his two deer eyes exposed. He looked a little depressed and aggrieved.

"I didn't expect Shen Zhao to hide so deeply..." Ma Shuyi couldn't help but sigh.

"But there is one more thing. Did you see that man? Does he look like the man who walked out of the oil painting?" Xu Ke was really impressed by the portrait. Even though Mu Yanchen had lost his childish appearance and was seriously ill, his bone structure and dark eyes were unforgettable.

Ma Shuyi and Li Kui nodded at the same time. "Indeed, I didn't expect to see the real person here. But the person looks like he has a serious illness and his face is pale. The portrait is so deceptive. He looks rosy like a healthy person."

Just when they were about to say something, a servant came over with a plate of exquisite snacks. She added teacups for the three of them, and poured steaming hot black tea from the pointed long-necked teapot, creating circles of ripples. She placed a piece of cake next to each of the teacups.

After finishing these things, the servant slowly stood up and said to them, "Please enjoy your meal."

The servant noticed Situ Rui slowly coming down from upstairs and wisely stepped back.

Situ Rui came down with some documents. He was not polite to the little girls and sat down on the sofa opposite them. Then he placed some documents in front of them, one for each person.

He raised his proud chin and looked at the girls in front of him with a not very friendly look, "Here are three confidentiality contracts, please sign them."

It was the first time for several people to encounter such a scene. They had only seen it on TV before and never thought they would experience it in person. Li Kui was relatively calm. She took the contract and started to read it. The more she read, the more panicked she became. Her pupils widened and she felt like "curiosity kills the cat".

"What did you say?" Ma Shuyi asked courageously.

Li Kui swallowed and said, "Look for yourself..."

Xu Ke also watched the reactions of the two people. The more he watched, the more panicked he became. He accidentally knocked over the teacup, and the scalding hot tea spilled onto the table, dripping along the patterns on the carpet that looked very expensive.
