Chapter 48 Reasoning Notes 2: The Murder of the Fox Demon (7)
There was an unbelievably long table in the dining room. Although there were only three people dining, the table was full of delicacies, most of which were rare delicacies that we had never heard of.Moreover, there is a row of well-dressed maids standing beside her, ready to serve at any time.

Such an exaggerated ostentation made me dare not let go of eating. On the other hand, Xia Zaoan has already started eating and drinking without any scruples.Well, that's her style.

"I don't know! I don't know how that strange man would attack me." The eldest lady—Cheng Meini put the meat on the fork into her mouth while answering my question.Before, we had introduced ourselves to each other.She is a "returnee" who has just returned from a foreign country. She has lived in a foreign country for a long time, so her Chinese is not very good.

"Don't you even know?"

"Yes. It is ridiculous! Although our family is rich and powerful, we rarely have any enemies. I also asked the housekeeper if my deceased parents had any enemies, but no, right, housekeeper? "

After struggling to speak this long paragraph of Chinese, she looked at a kind-faced old man who was waiting beside her.The old man immediately nodded respectfully.

Cheng Meini turned to me again and asked, "What happened to that straw man?"

She didn't come back after she escaped, so of course she didn't know what happened next.When I told her about tearing off one arm of the Straw Man, she was also taken aback, as if she couldn't believe such a strange thing.

"By the way," I thought of something, "When that straw monster attacked you, he seemed to say that he was a messenger sent by Mr. Fox!"

Cheng Meini seemed to remember it too, and then she grabbed the name Fox Demon and muttered to herself: "Fox Demon? Fox Demon... Where did you hear it?" She suddenly called out, "That reminds me! That invitation letter , I thought it was someone's prank!"

"Master Fox Demon's invitation letter?" I exclaimed in shock, "Black?" I remembered the invitation letter Huang Wanwan gave Xia Zaoan.

"Why do you know...is it black?"

I told about the fact that Xia Zaoan also received the invitation letter, and then compared the two invitation letters, they were exactly the same.

Huang Wanwan and Cheng Meini both received invitation letters. What does this mean?They both have money in common.Just because of this?No, there may be other intersections.However, Cheng Meini told me that their family has no business or personal relationship with Huang Wanwan.

"No, there is a connection, there is a connection!" The butler next to him thought of something, and couldn't help saying excitedly, "That straw village, our group plans to buy a piece of land there and develop it into a resort. Miss, you should remember , Didn’t the board of directors just discuss this plan a few days ago?”

"Oh, I remember the plan about the hot spring resort. But what does it have to do with Huang Wanwan?"

"Because Huang Wanwan is also competing with our group for that piece of land!"

I see.Now, the three of Cao Caocun, Cheng Meini and Huang Wanwan have all intersected.This discovery made me excited too, only Xia Zaoan who was sitting next to me was still oblivious to the delicacy on the table.

"Is that land valuable?" I asked, wondering if there were gold mines or something hidden there.

The housekeeper answered me patiently: "It's just an ordinary piece of land. The reason Huang Wanwan fights with our group at all costs is because of the potential there. Although the mountain village is located in a remote location, the scenery is charming, and there are The rare hot springs are really suitable for resort development.”

Hearing this, I seem to understand the reason why these two people have received invitation letters.It seems that someone doesn't want them to develop that land.Is it because it is the forest where the fox demon lives, or is it because of other ulterior secrets?
"Good morning that summer, She is your girlfriend?" Cheng Meini asked me secretly when she sent us out, her eyes were shining with a strange brilliance.

"No." I said, "How could she be my girlfriend? I haven't dated her yet." When I talked about this sensitive topic, I couldn't help but blush.

Cheng Meini's eyes lit up unexpectedly, and she grabbed my hand excitedly.This made my heart beat faster with shame.

She said: "Great! What a treat!"

"what?"

"Since you don't have a girlfriend, I can pursue you!"

"Ah!" I was dumbfounded and lost my language and thinking for a while.

This young lady likes me?Just kidding!

Chapter Three

Two days later in the morning, Xia Zao'an and I gathered at Huang Wanwan's villa, and we drove to Caocao Village together.

The destination is far away from here, and it takes three or four hours to drive on the highway.So our scheduled departure time was nine o'clock in the morning, and it was just noon when we arrived, in time for lunch.However, the actual departure time will be later.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Mu Xiaocai hurried downstairs to carry the luggage.This time I'm going to live for a few days, and I still need to prepare some necessary daily necessities.Huang Wanwan stood in the hall, bossing and urging Mu Xiao dissatisfied.

"Hurry up, idiot! Can't you work faster?" he reprimanded loudly.

I heard that Mu Xiao is his secretary, but I think Huang Wanwan is using him like a slave.So our impression of Huang Wanwan is even worse.

Mu Xiao, however, seemed to be used to being offended, he apologized blindly, and then hurried down the stairs with his luggage.When he was not careful, the person and the luggage rolled down the stairs, and they fell on their backs, and there was a loud noise in the hall.We hurried over to help Mu Xiao up, and helped pack the clothes scattered on the stairs into the suitcase.

Suddenly, there was a door slamming on the second floor, and Huang Mingzhu stood angrily on the stairs, with her hips akimbo, pointing at us and yelling, "What are you arguing about, why don't we let people sleep!"

This girl who grew up in the greenhouse is really spoiled, and she is furious just because she is woken up.Compared with the polite Cheng Meini, Huang Mingzhu suddenly paled in comparison, revealing her poor qualities.

"If you keep arguing, I'll let you die!" Huang Mingzhu stomped her feet angrily and said viciously.

Mu Xiao quickly apologized again.After cursing, Huang Mingzhu turned back to the bedroom and continued to sleep soundly.

"Thank you." Mu Xiao lifted the suitcase and said gratefully to us.

"you are welcome."

"Is it alright?" Huang Wanwan looked extremely impatient, "I can't do even a small thing well, what an idiot!"

"I'm sorry, Boss, it's almost ready. There is still one piece of luggage, you can wait in the car first."

"Hurry up! Don't make me wait!" Huang Wanwan walked out first.

We followed behind and helped Mu Xiao put the luggage into the trunk, and then he turned back to get another piece of luggage.We sat in the car and waited. After a while, Mu Xiao pulled out a red suitcase, which looked very heavy.This Huang Wanwan is real, it's only for a few days, do you need to bring so much luggage?Seeing him sweating profusely from exhaustion, we couldn't help feeling full of sympathy from the bottom of our hearts.

After ten minutes of tossing like this, we finally set off.However, it was a long time before the car drove out of the urban area, and when it was driving near the train station, it suddenly broke down.

The car stopped on the side of the road.

Mu Xiao went out, lifted the hood of the car to check for a while, then walked back apologetically and said, "Boss, it seems that the engine is broken and can't be driven."

"Damn, you idiot, don't you usually check the condition of the car? It just broke down at this time!" Huang Wanwan scolded endlessly, and Mu Xiao was probably numb.He looked around, turned around and suggested: "Boss, why don't we take the train. I know that the train will just pass through the county where the straw village is located."

"Then why don't you open the car door and let me get out of the car!" Huang Wanwan continued to reprimand angrily.

To such an arrogant and unreasonable rich man, Xia Zao'an and I could only smile helplessly at each other.

"Want to help?" After getting off the car, we walked towards Mu Xiao who was taking out the luggage from the trunk.

He said gratefully: "I'm sorry to trouble you again. Then you can carry this suitcase." Mu Xiao closed the trunk of the car as he said, but the red suitcase that was being moved down came loose somewhere. The clothes inside almost fell out again.

"Ha! I don't know what happened today, I always make mistakes in doing things..." Mu Xiao smiled at us self-deprecatingly, tidied up his clothes, and closed the suitcase.Walking behind us, he suddenly muttered uneasy, "I always feel that everything is not going well today, will something happen?"

That's a really bad premonition.

The train we took left at ten o'clock, and it was a box for four people.

According to the ticket window, it takes about four and a half hours to arrive at the county seat where Daicao Village is located.I'm afraid I won't be able to eat the lunch prepared over there.So, before departure, we went to a small restaurant near the train station to fill our stomachs in a hurry.

Maybe it's just eaten, the process of digesting food makes people sleepy, and we fall asleep as soon as we get on the train.Thinking of the long journey, we don't have to cheer up, just take this opportunity to sleep.

I don't know how long it took, but I was woken up by Huang Wanwan's nearly roaring reprimand.I don't know why he scolded Mu Xiao again, but Mu Xiao still hurriedly apologized.Seeing that we woke up, Huang Wanwan stopped cursing, turned around angrily and walked out of the box.

"What's wrong?" I asked, rubbing my sleepy eyes.

"It's nothing, a little thing. Boss is always used to making a big fuss. I'm sorry, did I bother you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I've had enough sleep anyway!" I said.
