Bai Wanxi blinked and looked at Chi Jiao with a confused expression. She muttered, “Jiaojiao, I don’t really understand what you mean?”

Chi Jiao smiled brightly. “It’s alright if you don’t understand now. I’ll bring you to explore tonight.”

Bai Wanxi was overjoyed upon seeing that Chi Jiao was willing to bring her along to explore tonight. She quickly nodded in agreement.

Chi Jiao turned around and looked in the direction of the villa. She found a quiet spot and called Quan Jue.

Away from everyone, Chi Jiao told Quan Jue her thoughts.

After she finished, Chi Jiao took a deep breath and asked nervously, “Brother Quan, do you think my conjecture makes sense?”

Quan Jue immediately replied, “I think your conjecture makes perfect sense. It just needs to be verified. If what you said is true, that Esper can no longer be separated from the house.”

Chi Jiao’s conjecture was very simple. She felt that the Esper might be in that house right now. Or rather, that Esper had completely merged with the house. As long as he didn’t want to leave this house, they wouldn’t be able to replace him no matter how strong they were.

Chi Jiao had heard her god grandfather mention such a case before, but this was the first time she had encountered it. She felt a little nervous and excited.

If her conjecture was right, those missing people were very likely still alive.

However, she needed to verify her conjecture. Once she confirmed it, she could save those people tonight.

“Indeed. If my conjecture is right, that Esper will probably be even more unwilling to leave. But it’s alright. If he’s unwilling to leave, I have a way to make him beg me to let him leave,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.

“You can use the Xuan Sect people stationed at the 117 building as you please. Teng Ying and the rest know spells and can help you. Or should I accompany you personally?” Quan Jue’s deep and magnetic voice rang in Chi Jiao’s ears, causing her to blush.

“Qingqing told me today that Quan Jingzhou has already taken over the project. Brother Quan, you’ll be very busy, right? You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll handle it myself,” Chi Jiao said hurriedly.

“Alright, contact me if you need anything.” Quan Jue’s doting voice rang out from the other end of the line.

Chi Jiao’s heart felt as sweet as honey. She said a couple more loving words to Quan Jue before hanging up.

Time passed quickly.

That night, at sunset, Beitang Lie rode his motorcycle over with Pei Yao.

The two of them alighted from the motorcycle. Beitang Lie took off his helmet and walked enthusiastically towards Chi Jiao. He said excitedly, “Boss! Long time no see. I missed you so much!”

Pei Yao pushed Beitang Lie to the side before he could touch a strand of Chi Jiao’s hair. Then, she pounced on her with a smile and hugged her tightly.

“Jiaojiao! It’s been a few days since we last met. I missed you so much!” Pei Yao carried Chi Jiao and spun her around before putting her down. She also pinched Chi Jiao’s pink face. Smiling, she asked, “Tell me, did you miss me?”
