C32 Trapped in the Bamboo Forest
C32 Trapped in the Bamboo Forest
A slight breeze blew and made a rustling sound. It made people feel relaxed.
"Okay." Qiao An said, "Then let's rest here for a while."
Tiantian smiled proudly, "Madam, you sit here for a while. I'll go get you a thermos and drink some water."
"Okay, thank you."
Tiantian turned around and left.
This bamboo forest maze covered five acres of land. It was crisscrossed and could not be seen. Even a person with good eyes might not be able to walk out even if it was their first time going in, let alone a blind Qiao An.
Tiantian snorted in satisfaction as she walked.
At nine o'clock, Aunt Faang had prepared breakfast. Huo Chengzhou walked to the dining room and waited for a while, but he did not see Qiao An coming back.
Seeing that he was not eating, Aunt Faang asked tentatively, "Should I go and find Madam?"
"No need." Huo Chengzhou picked up the knife and fork and started to eat the steak. "She said not to eat, so let her be."
Aunt Faang still muttered, "A girl needs to be coaxed. After you finish eating, go to the garden to find..."
Huo Chengzhou snorted. "She can go anywhere she wants. The house is so big, it is not surprising for her to come back at noon."
Aunt Faang looked at him and sighed deeply, "I am not enlightened!"
Huo Chengzhou looked up at her. Aunt Faang noticed his cold gaze and quickly walked away. "Ok, you can eat by yourself!"
He ate a steak and drank another bowl of porridge indignantly. Then he turned his wheelchair and left the restaurant. He took the elevator directly to the underground fitness center.
There was a password here. Other than him, no one else could enter the house. It was convenient for him to exercise.
Otherwise, the healthy person who sat in the wheelchair all day would probably be crippled.
Fists, jog, abs...
After about two hours, Huo Chengzhou went to the bathroom. After taking a shower, he sat on the sofa in the lounge area. He flipped through two pages of magazines and found that he could not read them.
He could not help but think of Qiao An crying in her room last night.
He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead. Huo Chengzhou turned on the monitor with a frustrated expression. He zoomed in and switched the scene, but his eyes were unconsciously searching for Qiao An.
It was strange.
He even felt that he was baffled.
She was in this house, blind and injured. Where could she go!?
He was actually a little worried!
What a joke!
At this time, Qiao An was still trapped in the bamboo forest. After waiting for a long time, she did not wait for Tiantian to come back. Qiao An suspected that she might have been tripped by something, so she carefully controlled the wheelchair to walk forward.
In her view, this was just a bamboo forest trail. It was not more than three to five meters long, and after walking over, it would become clear.
After walking for a while, she found that this bamboo forest trail was very meandering. From time to time, she would not be able to turn the corner and hit the bamboo.
At first, she felt that it was quite fun, but after a long time, she realized that she was in the bamboo forest no matter how she walked. She felt a little irritated.
She touched her wristwatch. It was already 11 o'clock in the morning, which meant that she had stayed in the bamboo forest for more than two hours.
Why hasn't Tiantian come back yet?
Or was it because she moved her position that Tiantian couldn't find her?
She quietly listened for a while. Other than the trembling bamboo forest, she couldn't hear any sound at all. This house was a bit too big.
"Tiantian?" She shouted.
What responded to her was still the sound of bamboo leaves rubbing against each other.
She tried to touch her phone before she remembered that she had woken up in the morning and hastily left her phone in her room.
In an instant, a wave of panic rose in her heart...
