After bidding farewell to the neurotic Qi Qingfei, Chen Xiao immediately went to find Li Ziqing and Lin Jie.

Without wasting words, the three of them headed straight for the villa.

This villa that Lin Jie gave to Chen Xiao was Villa Number One in Tianhai First Estate.

This was a true detached villa, not a townhouse.

Outside, the grass was green and lush, the lawn had a fountain, and there was parking space for more than a dozen cars.

If it were put up for sale normally, this villa could even fetch a nine-figure price.

It was just a pity that Tianhai First Estate had a bad reputation, with rumors spreading that it was haunted, so this villa had remained vacant until now.

Lin Jie using it as a favor to give away was a worthwhile investment.

After all, regardless of whether Chen Xiao could change the feng shui here, just being able to make friends with such an awesome person like Chen Xiao was worth the price.

Chen Xiao went inside the villa and took a look. The decoration was extremely luxurious, and all the furniture and appliances were top-of-the-line, befitting this house.

Chen Xiao and his mother could move in directly without even bringing their bags.

The only drawback was that it was too big; if only Chen Xiao and his mother lived here, it would feel a bit empty.

If he could bring the Gu family father and daughter here as well, it could make up for it somewhat.

It would be even better if he could persuade Li Ziqing to move in.

Such a big house must take a lot of time and effort to clean.

And Chen Xiao just happened to have taken in a maid.

In that case... well, the place would be livelier, and Chen Xiao's own dirty little thoughts would all be satisfied.

Just as Chen Xiao was lost in his fantasies, Lin Jie asked, "Chen Xiao, what do you think of this place? Are you satisfied?"

Chen Xiao didn't show that he was very satisfied, but just nodded slightly, "It's alright, except for being a bit too big, there's nothing else wrong."

When Lin Jie first heard this, she thought Chen Xiao was joking. Was the house being too big a problem?

But Chen Xiao's serious demeanor didn't seem like he was joking.

She didn't know whether to laugh or not, and the scene was awkward.

But Chen Xiao used an even more awkward sentence to break the awkwardness.

"Sister Lin, to be honest, I've heard all the rumors about this place. I know exactly what you're up to."

Lin Jie's expression immediately tightened, and she quickly said, "Chen Xiao, let me explain. I didn't mean to..."

Chen Xiao didn't listen to her explanation, and waved his hand to interrupt her, "Sister Lin, you don't need to explain. I'm not blaming you, and I can't just take such a big house for nothing. I'd feel uneasy if I didn't do something for you, don't you think?"

Lin Jie was extremely embarrassed, "Yes... no, no, Chen Xiao, listen to me. If you're not satisfied, I have other properties. You can pick and choose whichever one you like!"

Chen Xiao laughed, "No need to pick, this one is pretty good. Let's go, Sister Lin, take me for a stroll around the estate. I want to see if there really is a problem here!"

"Okay, I'll take you right away. Let's go."

Lin Jie looked like she had done something wrong.

The estate was very large. Driving around it took a full half hour.

After taking a tour, Chen Xiao directed, "Sister Lin, let's go back to the east gate."

Lin Jie obediently drove the car near the east gate. Chen Xiao walked around nearby, and finally he pointed to a piece of land near the security booth and said, "Sister Lin, dig down from here!"

"Okay!"

Lin Jie agreed readily.

Of course, she didn't have to dig herself. She found a security guard and had them dig down where Chen Xiao was pointing.

At this time, the sky was gradually darkening. The security guards had been digging for a long time, and had already dug a three-meter-deep pit, but they hadn't found anything.

The security captain came over to ask for instructions, "General Manager Lin, should we continue digging?"

"Keep digging!"

After receiving a look from Chen Xiao, she ordered.

Although the security guards were complaining, they had no choice but to dig. After all, they were being paid, so they had to do the job!

Finally, when they dug more than four meters deep, one of the security guards found something in the soil.

"There's something! I found something!"

The security guard shouted excitedly, but the next second, he suddenly screamed, "Ah—what the hell is this?"

The thing that the security guard dug up was actually a white, ghastly human skull!

The security guards were so scared that they immediately dropped their shovels and ran away!

They thought of the rumors of the estate being haunted, but they didn't expect it to be true!

"Everyone, don't be afraid, don't run! With Master Chen here, you'll be fine!"

Having gone through the previous experience, Lin Jie's nerves were much stronger. Not only was she not afraid, but she even tried to persuade the security guards.

But where would those security guards listen to her? Their lives were at stake. Who cared if you were the big boss at this time!

Helpless, Lin Jie shouted, "Those who stay and work will get an extra ten thousand this month, no, twenty thousand bonus!"

With a heavy reward, there must be brave men!

Lin Jie's money power came into play, and more than half of the security guards immediately returned.

The other security guards, seeing this, stopped running and all obediently came back.

We'll die together, who's afraid of who!

What's more, there was also the big boss, Lin Jie.

Her life was so valuable, and she wasn't afraid, so what was there to be afraid of!

"Chen Xiao, what do we do next?"

After pacifying the security guards, Lin Jie asked Chen Xiao what to do next.

Chen Xiao waved his hand, "Go to the west gate!"

After arriving at the west gate, it was the same old routine, continue digging!

This time, the security guards dug up several more white bones from the ground.

Then they transferred to the south gate, and then to the north gate…

In short, after digging through all four gates, the security guards dug up a pile of bones.

Under Chen Xiao's arrangement, this pile of bones became a complete human skeleton.

Lin Jie's face was pale, "I didn't expect there to be so many dirty things here!"

Obviously, she had been set up. Although she didn't know who did it, it was undoubtedly aimed at her intentionally.

Otherwise, how could there be a corpse in a perfectly good estate?

Chen Xiao laughed when he heard her words, "This isn't a dirty thing, it's just a corpse. The real dirty thing, you haven't seen it yet!"

Lin Jie was startled, "Ah? There's more?"

Chen Xiao waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go back to Villa Number One!"

Seeing that Chen Xiao was so confident, everyone's courage also grew stronger, and they followed behind Chen Xiao carrying their shovels.

A group of people came to Villa Number One in a mighty manner.

Chen Xiao pointed to a green tree and said, "Dig up that tree for me!"

Everyone then noticed that there was actually a jujube tree mixed in among the green trees.

As the saying goes, a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh.

Even families in the village would not plant jujube trees in their courtyards.

How could a jujube tree have gotten into such a high-end villa estate?

Needless to say, there must be a problem here!
