Chapter 97: Maybe The Wind Is Too Strong

The two of them slowly turned their heads with some difficulty and looked at the place where the sound had come from.
There was a shelf there. There was originally a half-meter-tall vase on it. At this moment, the vase fell to the ground and shattered without any warning. Just like the blueprint that Peng Zhongfei had torn off just now, it turned into pieces.
Peng Zhongfei swallowed his saliva and did not dare to go forward.
On the other hand, Gu Yundong walked to the vase in a few steps. She glanced at the broken vase, the flowers on the ground, and the water. She looked up at the two of them and said, “Actually, perhaps the wind was a little strong just now. The vase was blown over, so it shattered. It might not be related to the blueprint.”
Their gazes immediately shifted to her, and their expressions said, “Even if you want to find an excuse, you have to find something decent, okay?”
Not to mention that the door of this room was closed and there was no wind at all, even if there was, could it blow down such a heavy vase? There was still water inside. It was not low in weight at all, okay?
Gu Yundong laughed dryly. “Then, then what should we do now?”
Liu Wei looked at Peng Zhongfei, whose face was pale.
If the blueprint had suddenly appeared behind him, it might have been the girl who did it with some unknown method, but this vase had coincidentally shattered completely. It was too strange. The three of them stood far away. There was no wind, and the ground did not shake, unless there was a ghost.
Liu Wei couldn’t help but shiver. He regretted staying behind to watch the drama. Would the old man think that he was in cahoots with Peng Zhongfei?
In all honesty, he was a good person.
Thinking of this, Liu Wei could not help but take a small step back.
Peng Zhongfei was flustered and did not notice his small actions. His footsteps were a little slow and trembling as he moved towards the vase.
Gu Yundong turned his body slightly to make way for him. At the same time, she pulled out a crossbow from under the cabinet and stored it in her space.
Just now, she took advantage of the fact that the two of them were not paying attention and aimed the crossbow at the vase. The angle happened to be at the foot of the cabinet, which was not easy to see.
The moment the vase shattered, she came over to block their vision.
‘Good. Perfect. I’ll scare you to death.’
Peng Zhongfei did not reach the broken vase. He stopped two steps away.
He swallowed hard and looked at Gu Yundong. He said, “Take the blueprint back. Take it back quickly. Don’t appear in front of me again.”
Gu Yundong stood up. “Don’t worry, Young Master Peng. I…”
Before she could finish speaking, a faint and ancient voice suddenly sounded in the room. “Kid, you’re so bold! If I don’t punish you, do you really think I’m easy to bully?”
“All…” Liu Wei was shocked and turned to look at the source of the sound.
No one, not a single person, had said such a thing out of the blue.
Peng Zhongfei’s lips were pale as he looked at Gu Yundong. Gu Yundong looked also puzzled. She pretended to be very angry and ran to the place where the sound came from. “Who’s playing tricks here? Come out.”
She lifted the curtain over there and put the recording pen that she had placed in the curtain into her spatial storage.
That was a line from a television drama. After separating from Shao Qingyuan, she had found a place to secretly record it.
“T-There’s no one.” Gu Yundong turned her head and her voice was trembling. She looked at Peng Zhongfei as if she was about to cry. “I’ve never encountered such a situation before. I was just a little unlucky. There was no need to be so scary. I’m so afraid..”
