Driver Reappears

In the villa's outside resting room, the driver who was texting his girlfriend was shocked when the maid told him that An Siyao was looking for him. He was so scared that his phone dropped to the ground.

Picking up the phone, the driver followed the maid into the villa with a heavy heart. He had never been inside the villa before, because it was the place where the young lady lived. What had happened this time?

Various guesses flashed through the driver's mind, including but not limited to assassination, drugging, and staged accidents. After stepping into the villa, the driver's worries disappeared, and pride appeared.

Being able to enter the villa meant that his abilities and loyalty had been recognized by the young lady, right? Could any other driver do this?

Wait, on second thought, did these maids who could stay in the villa have anything special about them? The driver observed the maid in front of him for a while but couldn't figure out anything, feeling a bit hesitant.

However, if he could see something unusual about the maid, then how would she be qualified to stay in the villa? Unsure of the maid's role, the driver looked at the surrounding scenery.

He had gazed at this front courtyard many times from outside the villa, but now that he was inside, the experience was different. Such a large yard and neatly arranged flower beds – the life of a rich family was just as decadent as he had imagined.

If only he could live with Qingqing in a villa like this, he thought. They didn't need to be in the glamorous city center; a more remote city would be fine!

Should he talk to the young lady and apply for a few high-paying tasks? But he didn't know how to do anything other than driving, and those who got caught would go to jail!

The driver sighed and looked to the other side of the yard. By the pond, there was a figure sitting on a wheelchair. He recognized her as Xu Youxiang, the girl that he had abducted with the young lady some time ago.

Seeing Xu Youxiang staring at the water in despair, the driver sighed and felt a faint sense of guilt. He thought that Xu Youxiang was sad because of her confinement, and as the person who had taken the young lady to her house, he bore some responsibility.

However, he had no idea about his own future, so how could he worry about someone else's affairs? Glancing at Xu Youxiang again, the driver shook his head slightly.

Feeling the driver's gaze, Xu Youxiang turned her head towards him, catching the sight of the driver entering the villa. She withdrew her gaze and continued watching the pond.

In the pond, six koi fish swam happily, their movements agile, and a swing of their tail changed their direction. Staring at the fishtails for a while, Xu Youxiang touched her legs.

Xia Yu, concerned that if An Siyao was abnormal, Yu Liang would go mad, had used her body in the drug research, so she was well aware of the progress. Although the major part of the drug was completed, there was still no clue about the details. The drug couldn't be used yet, and they had to wait for clinical trials to begin at least.

She knew that she wouldn't live to see that day. If only it had been half a year earlier, maybe she could have made it.

Although it wasn't death but amputation, it was no different from death for her.

Xu Youxiang thought she would be angry and irritable, but in fact, her mood was very calm at the moment, as calm as the surface of a pond.

The water's surface shimmered with a twinkling light, which made her brain feel dizzy after a long while, her consciousness seemed to be captured, wanting to touch the light on the water.

Pushing her wheelchair, Xu Youxiang arrived at the edge of the pond, where the dizzying sea of light lay beneath her feet.

Gripping the wheel, Xu Youxiang moved back a circle.

This was the pond at An Siyao's house.

"Miss Xu?" The maid also hurriedly came over, "Don't go near the pond, that's where the young master slipped last week."

"Okay, push me back," Xu Youxiang said.

She rested her left elbow on the armrest, propping her chin, thinking about other things.

Her right palm was stroking her leg.

Her leg had lost all sensation, but her touch remained.

Because the Yu family had arranged for a top-notch doctor, her leg had been well cared for, and its appearance and touch were no different from normal times.

Since it would soon be gone, why not let it fulfill its purpose in its final moments?

Taking out her phone from the small bag beside her wheelchair, Xu Youxiang searched for Xia Yu's QQ number and applied to add him as a friend.

She hadn't added Xia Yu back since she deleted him last time.

Xia Yu didn't respond, and Xu Youxiang put her phone back into the small bag.

Passing by the second floor, Xu Youxiang saw An Siyao walking towards the study.

That feeling was of Xia Yu, right? No wonder he didn't accept her friend request.

What was he doing in the study? And the driver who just came in, what was he up to?

Xu Youxiang's mind was full of questions.

Noticing Xu Youxiang, Xia Yu waved to her and entered the study.

The driver was waiting inside.

Sitting in his seat, Xia Yu asked the maid to leave and closed the door.

The driver became even more nervous, thinking:

Why was the maid driven out? Was this something the maid couldn't know? Or were there spies among the maids in the villa?

The driver quickly lost interest in the question, as Xia Yu began to speak.

"I need you to go to Nanming," Xia Yu said to the driver.

He didn't continue speaking but waited for the driver to ask.

"Yes," the driver didn't ask why, he told himself that he was just an emotionless robot, and all he had to do was follow the young lady's instructions.

He recalled the information on Nanming; it was a city not far from Yao Guang, located in Su Province.

Since the driver didn't ask, Xia Yu had to say it himself.

"You'll put these things in the lockers of four different malls, send me the addresses and passwords immediately after you put them," Xia Yu pointed to the four small packages on the table.

"Cha."

"Hmm?"

"Alright!" The driver hastily changed his words.

"Leave early tomorrow morning and complete this task before nine o'clock," Xia Yu drew out the desk drawer, took out one hundred thousand in cash.

Seeing the driver's rapid breathing after seeing the money, Xia Yu was very satisfied.

Pushing the money across to the driver, Xia Yu said, "This is your activity budget, where and how to use it is up to you, no need to report to me."

Taking the money, the driver assured that he would complete the mission.

"Don't have curiosity that you shouldn't have." Xia Yu said again.

The driver expressed his understanding once more. He wasn't stupid. He knew that there were countless spies lurking around him, and even this mission might be a test. How could he possibly risk being thrown into the river just to satisfy that insignificant curiosity?

Xia Yu was satisfied with this aspect of the driver, which is why he entrusted the task to him.

After instructing the driver to take the item and leave, Xia Yu stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside.

Nanming was right next to Ziling. He would have Black Cat retrieve the item.

He hoped there would be no issues with his plan.
