Shen Yaowei didn’t seem to hear him. She insisted on pressing on the bulge on the table leg.
Crack —
The sound of mechanisms being activated could be heard.
Seeing a secret door slowly appear on the inner wall of the study, Shen Yaowei’s big eyes were filled with a dazzling smile. “How is it? I told you there was. Let’s go in and see what’s going on.”
Cang Ye was speechless.
He didn’t expect this to work. When Cang Ye saw Shen Yaowei rush into the secret room first, he quickened his pace and chased after her.
The pa.s.sageway to the secret room wasn’t deep. The two of them took a few steps and reached the end. When they looked up, they could see a half-grown room in the depths of the secret room. The roof here was very low, only as tall as an adult man. When Cang Ye came in, in order to prevent himself from being hit by the door frame, he even needed to tilt his head to enter successfully.
The secret room was circular. There was an altar here with incense and all kinds of fruits and snacks.
The most eye-catching thing was the portrait hanging on the wall.
There were a total of three portraits of the same woman.
The woman looked around and had a poignant aura. She was mysterious and elegant. At first glance, she looked a little weak, but on closer inspection, one couldn’t help but fall into her intermediate aura.
The woman was very young. She looked to be only 18 or 19 years old and was devastatingly beautiful. One couldn’t help but be curious. However, if the portrait could show the woman’s beauty to such an extent, how stunning would she be if she was a Perfected One?
Shen Yaowei boldly imagined it and realized that she had actually seen the woman in the portrait.
When she first saw Baili Se, her beauty and temperament shocked her. It was comparable to the feeling she had when she saw the portraits in front of her.
However, she knew very well that the woman in the portrait wasn’t Baili Se.
Looking at the signature of Baili Hui on the portrait, his words were very clear. The woman in the portrait wasn’t Baili Se, but the only love of his life, his beloved wife, Shanshan.
Shanshan had died young. She had died before she reached 20 years old.
For this, Baili Hui had always been in mourning. He had spent decades thinking about her.
Shanshan and Baili Se weren’t related by blood, but the two of them seemed to be carved from the same mold. There must be something wrong with this matter.
Just as Shen Yaowei was thinking this, Cang Ye had already stepped forward and taken down a portrait.
“Are you going to confront Baili Se directly with the portrait?” Shen Yaowei looked at Cang Ye and immediately guessed his intentions. She couldn’t help but admire this person’s actions.
Cang Ye nodded and casually put the portrait in his arms. “At this point, it’s time for us to find out who this Baili Se is.”
Shen Yaowei also vaguely felt that it couldn’t be a coincidence that Baili Se looked the same as Shanshan.
Recalling Baili Se’s extraordinary pulse, a bold guess suddenly appeared in Shen Yaowei’s heart. “Cang Ye, actually, I feel that we might have underestimated Baili Se. She might not be human.”
Cang Ye put the portrait away. When he heard this, he looked at Shen Yaowei.
After Shen Yaowei finished speaking, she felt that she was unreasonable.
However, Cang Ye didn’t question her. Instead, he stared at her intently and said, “Tell me in detail.”
“Don’t you think what I’m saying is very strange? I realized that no matter what i say, you seem to agree with what i say..” Shen Yaowei looked at Cang Ye in disbelief and asked from the bottom of her heart, “Cang Ye, do you trust me so much?”
