"I'm curious to see if anyone will come looking for me tonight."
Wang, the housekeeper, seemed to give it some thought but left quickly.
It was already dark outside, but all the streetlights were on. Even the orchard and flower garden were brightly lit. As the security guards patrolled the villa, they could see through the bulletproof glass of the floor-to-ceiling window on the left side of the ancestral house's grand hall. The large video screen in the living room was playing a movie.
Only one person was watching it, their protection target for tonight: Miss Qin.
None of that mattered. What was important was the movie: "The Silence of the Lambs."
Impressive, young miss!
Security guards should have been tired from patrolling all night, but seeing the bloody and horrifying scenes in the movie through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows had them pumped up like they just had chicken blood, feeling as if there was a cannibal hiding everywhere they looked.
