Chapter 262 The Secret Hidden in the Study
Chapter 262 The Secret Hidden in the Study
When he stepped into the study, Liu Yi was stunned.
From downstairs to upstairs, almost all rooms have the feel of a new owner.
Only the study was left untouched, and everything inside was arranged as before.
It was exactly the same as when he lived here.
Liu Yi couldn't control himself and closed the study door with trembling hands.
He knew it was extremely rude.
Now that the house had changed hands, he was politely invited in and given two hours to be alone.
But he selfishly blocked other people's view.
But he no longer cared about that.
The study door was originally equipped with a hidden lock and a hasp inside, which could be said to be double insurance.
This detail made Liu Yi smile. When they were at home, they never let others enter the study easily.
As long as the study is closed, no one at home will disturb him and his father.
Liu Yi walked to the window and was able to see the plane trees on the roadside. From this angle and this street view, all he saw were memories.
Thinking of the two-hour appointment, Liu Yi came to the bookcase, which was tall and large.
Liu Yi carefully moved a few books away, put his hand on the wooden board behind him, and found that the originally movable board could no longer be opened.
In a hurry, Liu Yi carried all the books on the table to the cabinet next to him, removed a few horizontal boards, and heard a snap.
A knife fell to the ground.
Liu Yi was stunned, picked up a knife, and cut the glued area along the wooden board.
His heartbeat was thundering.
This small knife is the only thing that is out of place in this study.
It is hidden on the edge of the wooden board and is inconspicuous.
Could it be that the hostess prepared it so that he could easily open the hidden panel when he came one day?
The place where the activity had taken place must have been discovered by the hostess and then sealed again.
Definitely yes!
Liu Yi felt that his idea was a little crazy, but he could not find any other explanation.
When the wooden board was opened, the long-lost hole was revealed.
Liu Yi lowered his head and strode up with trembling steps. He stepped into the dark stairs and pulled the light cord on the stairs.
Under the light, nothing has changed.
The hurried scene when he left really reappeared before his eyes.
The gold bars scattered on the corners of his legs and some precious ornaments were all things he had not had time to take away.
Nothing has changed here.
Liu Yi slumped in the only chair, which was covered with a layer of dust.
Obviously, ever since the hostess discovered this secret, she sealed this place off and never came in again.
Looking at the several precious books and antiques, Liu Yi quickly opened one of them, which contained their family photo.
A certain part of the photo was almost stuck to the book.
This is a trace that no one has opened since I left!
There are two more letters.
It is obvious that these books have never been touched.
Liu Yi held it tightly against his chest.
It was only after he settled down that he remembered these things, which he had originally thought were impossible to find.
I came back now with the intention of giving it a try, but I didn't expect to get it back.
I sat inside for a long, long time, imprinting every detail of it in my mind.
Liu Yi finally stood up and took out everything he could.
And restore everything to its original state.
When he came downstairs holding something.
I happened to see the children bringing out cold drinks from the kitchen and the family sitting together.
Liu Yi felt a little embarrassed, but since the other party was a gentleman, he chose to be honest with him.
"Comrade!"
As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he was interrupted by Lu Yuzhu, "Mr. Liu, don't you want to sit down and have a cold drink?"
Liu Yi smiled awkwardly, "I...what I want to say is that there were some things left here, like this family photo, and some other things."
Lu Yuzhu took the old photo curiously and said, "Oh, you were very young back then! You were such a handsome guy."
When Lu Yuzhu first entered the secret room, she knew it was a private space.
He didn't even look for his books, he just left the place and returned to his original state.
Liu Yi said anxiously, "Can I take these away? Don't worry, I can pay you some compensation in exchange for the same amount."
Lu Yuzhu gave him a strange look and said, "Since you have already produced the photos and proved that this was originally your home, you can naturally take these back with you."
Hearing Lu Yuzhu say this, Liu Yi was a little excited, "Thank you!"
Lu Yuzhu, “When we first moved in, this study was basically untouched, and we tried our best to keep it as it was.
I'm the only one who goes in there, and that's when I come back, just to clean.
So anything in this study, you can take away without any explanation."
He stood up and went to the guest room to get out a cardboard box. "Here, put your things in it."
Liu Yi put all the things into the cardboard box, feeling extremely grateful.
"It's really worth it for me to come back this time!"
As he said that, he took out a pen and wrote an address for Lu Yuzhu.
"If you have the chance, you can come visit us. Here's the address and phone number. My wife will accompany you throughout the trip."
Lu Yuzhu took it and didn't take it to heart, "Okay, thank you!"
Zhou Jianguo, who had been playing a background role, couldn't help but emphasize, "Comrade Liu, we are only in China and will not go abroad."
Liu Yi: "Okay, then I plan to invest in China in the future. I wonder if I can come and visit again."
Lu Yuzhu, "As long as we are at home, you can come. What business is Mr. Liu doing now?"
When Liu Yi mentioned business, he started to talk non-stop. "A lot. Textiles, clothing, hardware, electronics. I'm going to spend more money back home and I'm looking for partners."
Lu Yuzhu handed over a glass of iced orange juice, "So what do you think of me?"
Liu Yi's heart was already at ease. He took the iced orange juice and took a sip, which chilled his heart to the core.
"Do you...can you do business? If you don't have experience, I can invest in a small factory and give you a pilot."
Zhou Jianguo's mouth corners curled up.
Then Dabao, who was serving everyone, proudly said, "My mother owns her own big factory!
She has an engineering team under her, as well as furniture factories, clothing factories, and clothing stores. Anyone who cooperates with my mother has made a fortune! "
Liu Yi looked at the hostess in surprise. It was not that he looked down on women, but he doubted her ability.
But the hostess of this house is young and beautiful, and most importantly, she is an honest person and worthy of trust.
Isn’t this the best business partner?
