As Alex walked away from the mansion, his mind raced with questions. How had Wu Xiufan known about Yu Xuan's plan? Had he been spying on them, eavesdropping on their conversations?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Wu Xiufan, a man he had once trusted, had proven to be a master of deception. He had manipulated Alex, used him as a pawn in his own game.
Alex returned to his room, his heart pounding. He retrieved the information package he had hidden in the button of the cupboard, his movements swift and precise.
He examined the package, making sure it hadn't been tampered with. It was still sealed, untouched.
Relief washed over him. The information was safe. But how had Wu Xiufan found out about Yu Xuan's plan?
He searched his mind, trying to recall every detail of his conversation with Yu Xuan. He had been cautious, careful not to reveal too much. But had he made a mistake? Had he slipped up?
