After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 321 The Second Escape

Lu Chengshen sat in his office, his face full of anxiety.

If it weren't for his current position making it inconvenient for him to go out, he would have rushed over long before the incident occurred.

Unlike now, when I can only sit in the office and worry helplessly.

Moreover, it's inconvenient for them to send someone to handle situations involving other countries, since... they can easily get dragged into international relations by the other side.

Therefore, the only person he can rely on now is his eldest brother!

Hearing the teasing on the phone, Lu Chengshen couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch his brow, looking somewhat tired.

"Brother, I can only ask you for help now!"

Lu Mingxiao finally couldn't help but chuckle.

"You, you've been so stubborn all these years, and now you've finally learned to say something nice?!"

After saying that, he raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist before speaking, "Alright, you don't need to say anything more. I know the stakes."

"My assistant is here to pick me up. I'll go to my place first, and I'll contact you again if there's any news."

After saying that, he quickly raised his hand and hung up the phone.

Looking at the screen that had gone dark, he shook his head with amusement.

His younger brother, who's always been so cold and aloof, has finally found someone who can make him speak softly to him?!

The assistant waiting at the door quickly came over and said, "Mr. Lu, I've had the house cleaned up. You can move in now."

Lu Mingxiao responded in a low voice, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed from a friendly and gentle older brother into the head of a listed company.

He lowered his head, straightened his sleeves, and gave the order in a cold voice.

"Go and find out where Rong Xunsheng is right now?"

It has to be said that Lu Chengshen really gave him a difficult problem.

Because of Lu Chengshen's relationship with Rong Sheng, the Lu family has always kept their distance from him.

It's really difficult for him to suddenly find a way to fit in now.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao was ushered into a lounge on the second floor.

The bodyguard thoroughly inspected everything in the room before respectfully leaving.

Looking at the empty room, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sit down and let out a long sigh.

After a whole day of commotion, things have finally calmed down.

Lin Xiao sat on the sofa for a while to calm down before looking up at the old house.

The bodyguards searched out almost everything inside that could be used.

It's probably impossible to find even a rope.

However... fortunately, although this theater occupies a large area, it is only a simple two-story building.

There shouldn't be too much of a problem getting out from the second floor.

Lin Xiao walked to the window and looked at the height of the entire room.

Although the height of this theater room is nearly a meter higher than that of a regular accommodation, it is not very difficult to run out from the second floor.

Especially... Lin Xiao subconsciously looked at the place outside the window specifically used to house the air conditioner outdoor unit.

It is said that in Xinzhou, residents need the consent of the entire community to install air conditioning.

Therefore, although the theater has retained accommodations, almost none of the rooms have air conditioning units installed.

Having this place where she can temporarily settle down and support herself is a very good option.

In addition, the platform for installing the air conditioner outdoor unit is almost level with the floor of the room.

Jumping down from here is only a distance of three or four meters, so it shouldn't be as terrifying as you might imagine.

Lin Xiao waited until late at night, around one o'clock in the morning, without even turning on the light, and sat up in the dark.

The neon lights outside the room were flashing, and the lights shone directly through the windows, illuminating the entire room.

Using the light shining in from outside the window, Lin Xiao turned around and walked directly to the window next to her.

Her gaze unconsciously drifted towards the backyard. Although Mingke had explicitly told her that the circus would move the animals from the vehicle after last night's performance.

However, from the time she spent eating with Rong Xunsheng until now, she has not heard any vehicles leave.

The vehicles used to transport these animals were all heavy trucks; it's impossible for such large vehicles to leave without making a sound.

Those animals probably haven't had time to move away yet.

Of course, this was also her deepest wish.

Hopefully, it's not too late.

She climbed out of the window and carefully stepped onto the small platform outside.

She glanced down at the height beneath her feet and unconsciously frowned.

Although they might say that three or four meters isn't that tall, standing here right now, no one could easily say... it's not tall.

She hesitated for a long time before finally closing her eyes and making up her mind.

She held onto the platform and slowly and tentatively placed her feet down.

Until the entire body is completely lowered down.

She gripped the edge of the platform tightly with both hands, held her breath, and looked down to check her height from the ground.

After hesitating for a while, he finally closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and jumped down.

Almost at the same moment she let go, a suppressed gasp came from beside her.

"Lin Xiao!"

Lin Xiao subconsciously turned around, but unexpectedly, she lost her footing when she landed and twisted to the side, falling to the ground.

"hiss……"

Lin Xiao gasped, then got up from the hard cement floor with a bitter face.

Mingke hadn't expected this accident to happen. He quickly rushed over and checked her foot with a worried expression.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

Lin Xiao subconsciously shook her head.

But when she sat up and moved her sprained ankle, she immediately frowned deeply.

Ugh, what bad luck, I twisted my ankle!

Looking at her injured right foot, Mingke said helplessly, "Why weren't you more careful? What are we going to do now?"

It would have been better if he hadn't said those words; as soon as he did, Lin Xiao immediately looked up and glared at him.

"I didn't do it on purpose. Who would have thought you would suddenly yell like that and startle me?"

"I thought I had been discovered."

Lin Xiao moved his injured right foot and tried to stand up.

Fortunately, the pain in my foot wasn't too severe, and I could just bear it.

Mingke quickly helped the man up and could only silently accept his crime.

He only found out tonight that Rong Xunsheng had returned.

And they went straight to the theater as soon as they left the airport.

I heard they even had a special talk with Lin Xiao.

Upon hearing this news, Mingke felt that Lin Xiao might not be able to get out tonight.

As expected, this was the case.

Under the cover of darkness, he originally intended to climb up to check on Lin Xiao's condition, but unexpectedly, when he looked up from behind the house, he saw Lin Xiao dangling outside the window, teetering on the verge of collapse.

Anyone who saw it would probably feel a jolt in their heart.

His reaction was already considered mild.

Lin Xiao stood up and took a couple of steps, finding no impact whatsoever, and immediately grabbed Ming Ke's arm.

"Alright, I'm fine here. Are the animals in the backyard still there? Let's get started!"
