In a corner that Shen Xi could not see, Gu Chen's cold gaze glanced at Hu Long, who had just raised his head. Hu Long was so scared that he immediately lowered his head again.
Hu Long did not dare to look up. He only dared to look at Gu Chen's shoes from the corner of his eye. Then, Gu Chen's words of warning rang in his ears, "Think about your wife and child. There are some things that you can't say out loud. You'd better keep them in your stomach. Otherwise, I don't mind letting your wife and children become mute in your place."
Hu Long was so frightened that he was alert. When he raised his head and wanted to beg for mercy, Gu Chen had already turned around and left.
He didn't dare to continue speaking, because, at this moment, Shen Xi was in the adjacent study room. If he were to beg for mercy, Shen Xi would know.
Hu Long could only watch as the door of the secret chamber closed again.
