Chapter 574 Even a rabbit will bite when cornered.

The person walked to the door, but instead of knocking, they went straight to turn the doorknob.

However, the doorknob was blocked by Duanmu Long from inside with a table, and he couldn't turn it. Gao Songchen smiled knowingly: "Looks like he's awake."

He raised his voice slightly, "Miss Duanmu, I mean no harm, I'm just inviting you to come and be my guest."

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Long couldn't help but spit out a curse.

Gao Songchen overheard this from outside, and his smile faltered for a moment. "Yesterday was rather rushed, but I have some time now. Miss Duanmu, would you please open the door for me so we can talk face to face?"

After waiting for a while and still hearing no movement from inside, Gao Songchen put away his smile and waved to the two bodyguards who had followed him.

"Open the door for me."

Since you won't accept a polite toast, then you might as well drink a penalty shot.

Hearing the sound of the door lock being cut, Duanmu Long shrank back. Even though he clenched his fists to cheer himself up, he couldn't help but feel his heart pounding with nervousness.

Gao Songchen was capable of kidnapping her; she couldn't imagine how low his moral standards could be.

Watching helplessly as a large hole was cut into the door, ready to be broken down at any moment, Duanmu Long clutched the solid wood stool tightly in her hands. It was the only piece of furniture in the room that she could move!

"Bang!" The dilapidated door was pushed open, and just as the person outside was about to walk in, Duanmu Long didn't even look to see who it was before picking up a stool and smashing it against them.

"Hiss!" The bodyguard walking in front was caught off guard and hit, but he reacted quickly and snatched the chair away.

Duanmu Long was pulled and staggered a few steps. He gritted his teeth, turned around, and ran to the corridor next to him.

Seeing that she was still uncooperative at this critical juncture, Gao Songchen coldly ordered, "Bring her back."

Hearing the sound of someone chasing after him, Duanmu Long also became fierce.

Seeing a vase at the corner of the corridor, he picked it up and threw it backward, ignoring the shards that cut him as he continued walking.

The footsteps behind her paused, and she suddenly realized there was a way. As a result, all sorts of handicrafts displayed in the villa's corridors and other public areas were subsequently destroyed.

However, the consequence of panicking and running blindly is that you eventually run out of roads.

All that remained was a black wooden door at the end of the corridor.

Hearing footsteps approaching, she didn't have time to think and quickly pushed open the door and ran inside.

The two bodyguards chased after him to the room door, then hesitated for a moment.

"Should we continue pursuing them?"

"Let's ask the young master first. Young master, Miss Duanmu has entered the room where the late madam was staying, we..."

Gao Songchen, who was waiting for the bodyguards to bring the person to him, couldn't help but curse them as useless. "You guys stay at the door, I'm coming over now."

Duanmu Long was startled as soon as he entered the room.

This room was much larger than the room where she had been locked up before, but it was pitch black, as if it had suddenly transitioned from day to night.

She didn't see the whole room until she accidentally touched the light switch on the wall.

The ceiling and walls of the room were all painted black, and then paintings were done on them.

It's hard to tell what the painting is, but the intense colors seem to be captivating at first glance.

The floor was also black, with many traces of residual paint.

This should be an art studio.

If she remembered correctly, Gao Songchen's deceased wife was a painter.

Further inside, there were many paintings that were probably preserved and covered with white sheets. However, before Duanmu Long could go over to take a look, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.

She no longer cared about finding a place to hide; she grabbed the easel beside her, lifted it up, and threw it forcefully at the lamp above her head.

Just as the room returned to darkness after the light was broken, Gao Songchen pushed open the door to the art studio.

Even with the door open, it seems like the inside absorbs all the light; once you go inside, you can't see anything.

He walked to the light switch as if he knew it well and pressed it, but it was still dark.

I walked a little further and kicked some fallen pieces of lamp casing.

He simply stood still. "Miss Duanmu, I know you're hiding in the corner, but it's no use. I think Old Madam Duanmu will think it through. Cooperation between the Duanmu family and the Gao family is the best way to protect your Duanmu family." As a gust of wind swept from behind, Gao Songchen continued to talk eloquently, trying to get Duanmu Long to compromise.

He never imagined that Duanmu Long would have the guts to hurt him.

Even if they sensed something was wrong, it was too late to hide.

Not to mention that we can't see anything right now.

I took a solid hit to the back of my head.

Duanmu Long went all out this time. She knew that sound-based positioning was only most useful when the opponent was completely unprepared the first time. If she missed the first strike, it would be very difficult to hit the target again.

Hearing Gao Songchen fall, she threw down her easel and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

The two bodyguards guarding the door could hear their young master speaking at first, but after the impact, they fell silent. They exchanged a glance and then boldly went inside.

When they turned on the flashlight on their phones, they saw Duanmu Long sitting on the ground, an easel lying to the side, the young master lying on his side still convulsing, and a pool of blood under his head.

Oh no, this is a huge disaster!

*
Ruoshui and Daxiong, who were just about to secretly infiltrate the villa area, received a message from their captain: "Captain, why did you come in person?"

Li Chengxiao gestured to the back seat, and the two of them looked over.

"Old Madam Duanmu!"

Duanmu Rongrong was extremely anxious at this moment, but she knew that Ruoshui and Daxiong had come to rescue Duanmu Long. "Thank you."

With Li Chengxiao driving the car, the security guards in the villa area only glanced at the license plate and promptly let them pass.

When he drove to the villa on the edge of the city where the signal was located, he saw a bodyguard hurriedly carrying someone out of the villa as soon as he got out of the car.

Duanmu Rongrong looked over suddenly and thought the person was carrying Duanmu Long. She swayed, but Lu Feng quickly caught her.

Li Chengxiao noticed the commotion on her side, "It's not Duanmu Long."

He took a few steps forward, and when he saw the face resting on the bodyguard's shoulder, his eyes narrowed.

The bodyguard was hurriedly carrying his young master out when his path was blocked. He looked up and panicked.

Of the five people in front of me, I knew two of them.

But upon seeing these two, only two words came to his mind: Damn it!

How did you find us so quickly?

But how could he dare ask that question? "Please move aside, my young master is injured."

Li Chengxiao glanced at Gao Songchen's still bleeding head and asked, "Where's Duanmu Long?"

The bodyguard glanced at the completely blocked path, gritted his teeth, and said, "Inside."

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Rongrong didn't bother to investigate how Gao Songchen had injured his head and quickly walked towards the villa.

Li Chengxiao gave Da Xiong a look, and Da Xiong nodded and followed the bodyguard carrying Gao Songchen.

Ruoshui followed Li Chengxiao into the villa.

"Could it be that Miss Duanmu hit Gao Songchen on the head? That's amazing!"

Her impression of Duanmu Long had always been that of a dignified young lady. She thought that Duanmu Long could protect her before she and Da Xiong arrived. She never expected that he would be so fierce when he made his move!
A bodyguard was left in the villa to keep an eye on Duanmu Long.

Although he hated the woman in front of him who dared to hurt his young master, he didn't dare to make a decision on his own and could only lock her up first.

Hearing someone come in, he came out to see what was going on, but Lu Feng grabbed him and stopped him.

"Where's our young lady?"

"Duan, Duanmu..."

Just like the bodyguards before him, only two words remained in his mind: It's over!

Ruoshui looked at the broken porcelain shards, glass fragments, and bloody footprints scattered all over the ground.

You can review what happened before without watching the surveillance footage.

Sure enough, if pushed too far, even a harmless little rabbit can bite!
