The Rise of Rich Family's Daughter

There was a row of single-story houses behind the manor, all built from big stones, and the dark gray walls were very old and heavy, and from afar one could feel a sense of oppression.    

    

"What kind of place is this?" Li Xi asked softly.    

    

"This is the dungeon of the manor. The commanders of those who have committed mistakes will be sent here." The bodyguard replied very cautiously. His voice seemed to be even smaller than Li Xi's.    

    

Dungeon?    

    

This name that she had only heard in television dramas actually jumped into real life just like that. Li Xi's heart suddenly tightened. She did not know what she would see in a while.    

    

Her delicate hand lightly caressed her abdomen. Li Xi comforted herself and the independent Xiao Dou Ya. She hoped that this was the precious time to rest so that she would not be frightened.    

    

Creak, creak, creak -    

    

Suddenly the sound of horse hooves sounded behind her. Li Xi turned her head and saw Zhou Zhuo Yun riding his horse and whipping it. Although it was not a knight's uniform, that windbreaker type coat was still very cool and cool.    

    

"Why are you here?" Li Xi felt a little nervous in her heart.    

    

"I will feel more at ease if I stay with you." Zhou Zhuo Yun got off the horse and stood next to the carriage. He then opened his palm. “ Just close your eyes and follow me. I will tell you when we get there. That way, I won't see so many things that I can't accept "    

    

"Am I that weak?" Li Xi curled her lips, but she still supported the man's hand and got off the carriage.    

    

This was not the time to show off. At least it was good for the child to have less horror. No one knew what they would see next. Li Xi still needed to be at ease with Zhou Zhuo Yun by her side.    

    

In the long corridor, one could feel a kind of cold and damp when walking in. It was as if there was a drop of water there. When they calmed down, it was terrifying to hear it. Li Xi could not help but tighten the hand that held the man's arm. She really felt like she had stepped into hell.    

    

"Close your eyes. I will always be by your side." Zhou Zhuo Yun held the hand on his arm and comforted her.    

    

"Ok." Li Xi took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Zhou Zhuo Yun's words touched her. Li Xi still hoped that these words came from Pei Jun Ting's mouth, but it seemed that it was hard to tell who that man was accompanying her.    

    

The ground was covered with uneven rocks. Li Xi could feel the unfairness under her feet. She could also hear some moaning sounds. The sound of leather shoes stepping on rocks also had a kind of resonance sound. Li Xi really did not know what the current Li Hua would be like. She also could not understand why he was so insistent on not handing over the map.    

    

What kind of magic did that map have that could make people waste their lives here?    

    

"Xixi?" A hoarse and weak voice rang in her ears. Li Xi opened her eyes and saw Li Hua tied up on the shelf. He did not look any more relaxed than he looked in the video. His body was covered with blood. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was dying.    

    

Li Xi stood there stiffly. She did not know how to get closer. Her mouth was so big that it seemed like she could not make any sound.    

    

"Miss, I will wait for you outside." The bodyguard was very sensible. He bowed and left. Although the railing did not have the effect of a private space, it still made people feel respect.    

    

"Thank you." Li Xi then slowly recovered her senses. She also withdrew the hand that was holding Zhou Zhuo Yun's body. "Could you please help me put him down first so that we can talk?"    

    

"I need to ask for instructions first." As the bodyguard spoke, he scooped out the phone and hung up the phone. He asked someone to put Li Hua down from the iron frame.    

    

"Why are you guys here?" Li Hua, who had fallen on the wall, seemed to have found the strength to come back to life again.    

    

"Where is the map?" Li Xi did not say anything unnecessary.    

    

"Are you here to force me?" Li Hua coughed a few times.    

    

"Dad, you know what grandpa thinks about you. He can let go of Mom and Grandma. But the map is the only condition that you can let go of. You don't want to stay here forever, do you? " Li Xi squatted beside Li Hua and started to slowly treat his wounds. "I don't know what the map is, but I don't think anything is more important than life. What do you think?"    

    

"Mr. Li, you should know how strong Mr. Zhan Mu Si is. It can't be solved by calling the police." Zhou Zhuo Yun reminded him in a low voice.    

    

"I really don't know where that map is." Li Hua said with difficulty, "Since you are willing to call him grandpa, can't you help Dad explain it? I really can't support it. "    

    

"Even without the map, will you still remember it in your heart? Dad, it's useless to lie to yourself! " Li Xi could not help but sigh, "Think about it yourself. I'm afraid that this is all I can help you with."    

    

"What about Pei Jun Ting? Why didn't he come with you? Don't tell me he doesn't even have the strength to save his father-in-law?" Li Hua had a look of unwillingness.    

    

"He's not a god. The only thing you can do now is to save yourself." Li Xi did not want to drag Pei Jun Ting into this. "If you can take out the map now, I can take you away immediately. Or maybe... You tell me the location of the map, and I'll go and get it for you right away. Think about it yourself! "    

    

Li Xi did not say anything else. She just lowered her head and helped her father treat his wound. In her heart, she was also thinking about how to take her father away if she really did not have the map. She could not just leave her father to die, right?    

    

"The map is actually with you." After a long time, Li Hua finally opened his mouth again. He did not know if he was touched or if he had really thought it through.    

    

"At my place?" Li Xi frowned. How could she not know?    

    

"It is in the box with the black pearls. There is a layer on the back of the box. The map is there." Li Hua gently held his daughter's hand. "Dad never dared to say it because he was afraid that your grandpa would do something to you. None of us know what the map is. Dad doesn't want to involve you anymore. "    

    

Ah -    

    

Li Xi didn't know what kind of emotion she should be feeling, nor did she know how much credibility Li Hua's words were. Could it be that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry?    

    

"___, help my dad up. We will take him away from here." Li Xi did not hesitate anymore. Since she was here, she must take responsibility.    

    

"Miss, the people here can't leave without orders from the commander." The bodyguard stopped her.    

    

"Tell him, I already know where the map is. I can give it to him right away, but now I have to take my father for treatment." Li Xi did not intend to give in at all, "Since you respectfully address me as Miss, then what I said should not be nonsense."    

    

" That... "    

    

" Move aside and let Miss go back to rest. " The butler's voice suddenly sounded in the corridor and Li Xi's worried heart finally settled down.
