Chapter 95: Departure

The night fell slowly.

The quiet road of the villa had long been plunged into darkness. Although the lights were on in the villa, the haze of the room could not be dispelled. The hall was quiet, although the lights were bright, but it always made people feel dark and dreadful.

Mr. Bai sat quietly on the sofa, the tea in front of him was cold and was reheated for many times.

There was no sound in the huge villa.

Mr. Bai was looking at the document intently, but his eyes would occasionally look at the clock hanging on the wall. When it was time, the sound of a car engine came from the door of the villa, and Mr. Bai's indifferent eyes finally got a bit of color. He put down the document, beckoned for someone to change the tea, and then he sat in an elegant posture and waited for Ren Yue to come back.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes... Ten minutes passed, and Ren Yue's footsteps still did not sound. After a long while, someone beckoned the butler to go over. After the butler got Mr. Bai's approval, he went out and saw that the driver who was originally sent to take over Ren Yue came back alone.

The butler paused and asked, "Where's Young Master Ren?"

The driver opened his mouth, and he rubbed his hands with a look of panic and said, "He, he didn't come back..."

The butler frowned, he scolded seriously, and asked, "Explain clearly!"

"It's like this," the driver was shocked, and then he did not dare to continue to lose his nerve, so he said the matter directly, "I wanted to drive to the school as usual to take over the young master, and then I waited for a while, one of his classmates came to tell me that his homeroom teacher had talked to him, and he would come down later. So I kept on waiting, after waiting for about half an hour, Young Master Ren walked over and said that he would not go back, so let me come back by myself…"

The butler frowned and asked, "That's all you know? Are you sure you didn't hide it?"

The driver shook his head desperately, and he said terribly, "How dare I hide it? That's Mr. Bai, if I try to hide it, I might lose my life..."

The butler's eyebrows still didn't loosen, but before he could continue to ask anything, Mr. Bai was already standing beside him. Mr. Bai's face was pale, and he couldn't tell if he was angry.

"Was there anyone else beside Ren Yue at that time?" Mr. Bai asked lightly.

"No."

"Lin He isn't there?"

"I saw him go first."

"..."

Mr. Bai closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking. After a while, he opened his eyes to look at the butler and the driver. He said lightly, "You go away."

The driver panicked, and he desperately remembered whether he had forgotten anything. He worked his brain fast, thinking desperately, and finally thought of something. "I remember that there seemed to be a woman beside Young Master Ren at that time!" The driver said quickly, "A middle-aged woman, with long white hair and an oval face, she looked very gentle... she wore a yellow plain dress and flat shoes."

The butler thought for a while, and then he said to Mr. Bai, "Sir, according to analysis, that should be Young Master Ren's mother."

The driver didn't understand the situation, he nodded sharply.

"What else did Young Master Ren say?" the butler asked.

The driver glanced timidly at Mr. Bai who was standing beside him, and then he mustered up the courage to say the last sentence of Ren Yue, "Master Ren said 'don't look for him'." After speaking, he looked straight at him. Mr. Bai, the fear in his heart was magnified a little, making him wirelessly regret why he said this.

Mr. Bai nodded, and then said again, "You can leave."

The butler and driver then withdrew.

It's just that the driver still felt a little uneasy. His task was to pick up Ren Yue on time every day. He couldn't pick him up successfully at this time. He always felt like he had screwed up his work. At that time, he should have obeyed Mr. Bai's instructions, ignored Ren Yue's words, and brought the person back directly... It's just that the driver remembered Ren Yue's expression at that time, and he couldn't do anything. Moreover, in Mr. Bai's order, there was no requirement to take Ren Yue home in a tough way.

The driver looked at the butler anxiously and asked, "Did I do something wrong?"

"No." Replied the butler faintly, "You did a good job."

"But I didn't bring back Young Master Ren, Mr. Bai doesn't look very good..." The driver said nervously, "Should I take a tougher approach and bring back Young Master Ren directly? "

"If you took that approach," the butler looked at the driver lightly, and then said without any emotion, "you are dead now."

The driver was taken aback.

After the driver and the butler left, some people around also retreated. Mr. Bai was the only one left in the huge villa. He returned to the living room, then sat on the sofa and continued to read the documents like a hill on the coffee table. At this moment, Mr. Bai did not continue to pay attention to the clock hanging on the wall. Time seemed to have no attraction to him now.
