After the two of them wasted more than ten minutes in the courtyard of the villa, they entered the villa under the crowd of people around them.
The interior of the villa fully reflected the Chinese style. It was magnificent and luxurious. The tall space was large and deep. The carved beams and painted pillars were resplendent. The shape was symmetrical, the color was contrasting, and the expensive wood was everywhere.
Patterns of dragons, phoenixes, tortoises, and lions could be seen everywhere. They were exquisitely carved and magnificent!
To be honest, this gorgeous and expensive Chinese style of decoration was really not suitable for living. It was too gorgeous!
Just look at the blue and white porcelain vases placed on Lai Wen's display shelf. It was estimated that they were worth at least hundreds of thousands.
The solid carved wooden chair looked luxurious, but it was not as comfortable as the soft leather sofa. However, its temperament was particularly high-profile.
"You can look around." Lai Wen said, "I have something to deal with first."
Lai Wen naturally had something to do when he came home. Xu Yun nodded. He knew that he could not appear to be too anxious now.
After Lai Wen left, Xu Yun walked around the room casually.
Because Lai Wen said that he could look around casually, no one dared to stop him. The servants in the house would respectfully bow and greet Xu Yun when they saw him. This really made Xu Yun feel quite uncomfortable.
The feeling of being superior was not bad, but Lai Wen's overbearing attitude made the servants in his house tremble in fear, which made them feel embarrassed.
Xu Yun visited Lai Wen's study in a short while.
The study was very stylish. There was a traditional Hua Xia landscape painting on the wall. There were also two calligraphy pieces. The bookcase and desk made of precious wood, as well as the extraordinary four treasures of the study, gave people a feeling of a different style.
This kind of implicit style was only found in the Chinese style. The Chinese style made the whole space traditional with a hint of modernity, and modern with a touch of classicism.
In this way, the rhythm was controlled by the aesthetic concept of "blank space" of the Orientals, showing the style of a great master. The number and content of the paintings on the wall were not many, but the artistic conception they created.
It could be said that no matter how strong the west wind blew, the soothing artistic conception was always the unique feeling of the Orientals. Therefore, calligraphy was often the best way to achieve this kind of poetry.
Lying on the lounge chair in the study, the story of Ren Qiannian flowed through his fingers. It was very touching.
…
Xu Yun spent about half an hour to basically tour the entire villa. He was very clear about what he was looking for.
At the same time, Xu Yun also knew that although Xia Qiuyu wouldn't suffer here, she definitely wouldn't have any freedom.
Throughout the entire villa, there were still a few rooms that Xu Yun did not enter. Because those rooms were all closed, it did not seem that convenient to enter.
If Xu Yun were to open the door and barge in, it would be impolite.
Doing so might make Lai Wen feel very uncomfortable.
Xu Yun was very clear about this basic principle.
After figuring out the layout of the villa, he couldn't make the owner of the villa feel uncomfortable. Xu Yun needed to know how to handle things properly.
Lai Wen's men and servants could be seen everywhere in the villa. Xu Yun didn't believe that these people wouldn't keep an eye on his actions. Once he had any suspicions, someone would definitely inform Lai Wen immediately.
He had just infiltrated the enemy's territory. Xu Yun didn't want to make Lai Wen suspicious of him so quickly. Once Lai Wen was on guard, Xu Yun's actions would be inconvenient to carry out.
Therefore, after a general tour, Xu Yun showed a kind of curiosity.
After all, if he came here and didn't move, it would make people feel a little strange.
When Xu Yun returned to the living room and sat down, Lai Wen's servant quickly brought a pot of Tieguanyin.
Xu Yun said thank you and tasted the tea alone.
Later, cigars, cigarettes, betel nuts, and some things that Lai Wen usually enjoyed at home were also served one by one.
Drinking a cup of tea and smoking a cigarette was something that Xu Yun could enjoy. Cigars were also good. The smoke made people feel very sublime.
As for betel nuts, as a northerner, Xu Yun really couldn't stand it.
He had always wondered why people in some places would eat this thing as chewing gum. Didn't they know that oral cancer patients liked to chew betel nuts in these places?
Therefore, the liking that this thing brought to people might not be good for their physical and mental health.
Every time he saw someone chewing a betel nut after smoking a cigarette, Xu Yun wanted to tell him not to play like this. It would be terrible if he really got oral cancer.
After a pot of tea, about half an hour passed.
Lai Wen finally appeared in Xu Yun's field of vision.
Seeing that Xu Yun was still sitting in the living room, Lai Wen immediately turned hostile to the servant next to him, "What else can you do?! How long has it been! Haven't you cleaned up the room yet?! If you clean it up, invite my brother in to rest! Are you going to let him sit here all the time?! "
Lai Wen's servant didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Lai Wen didn't say that he was going to prepare a guest room for Xu Yun just now, nor did he say that Xu Yun was going to stay here. How would they know?
"Boss Lai, don't be angry. I didn't let them go." Xu Yun: "I was waiting for you to come and ask you which room I can stay in. I want to choose it myself."
Lai Wen was stunned.
The Lai family's servants also looked at Xu Yun gratefully.
"If you want to choose the room yourself, then just tell them and arrange for them to clean it for you." Lai Wen said, "Did they not listen to your arrangements?"
"No, I didn't arrange it. I was afraid that if I chose the wrong room, it would be a taboo for you. "Xu Yun said.
Lai Wen waved his hand. "I don't have so many taboos. You can choose any of the rooms here. Find one that you like and let them take you to visit one by one. In the future, it will be your room forever. "
Xu Yun smiled. "Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony."
"If you are still standing on ceremony at home, then it will really make me unhappy." Lai Wen patted Xu Yun's shoulder. "Find a room and rest. I will also rest for a while. At noon, I will let you taste the most authentic Hunan cuisine."
Xu Yun nodded. "Okay, then Boss Lai should also rest well."
Soon, Xu Yun chose a room with the most comfortable window view. From here, he could see the entire front yard and every movement on both sides.
After the servant tidied up the room for Xu Yun, Xu Yun closed the door and took a shower. He didn't sleep. He had already slept enough in the car.
After Lai Wen returned to his room, he fell asleep. The bumpy journey made him sore all over. He didn't have a good body like Xu Yun, so he couldn't bear such a bumpy journey.
Xu Yun didn't go out of the room. He could basically calculate the structure of the villa in the room.
In Lai Wen's house, there were more than a dozen servants, so he didn't need to worry too much. There were more than a dozen subordinates. There were people on duty at the door, in the courtyard, in the front and back. Obviously, there were living people monitoring the entire villa 24 hours a day.
Just based on this, Xu Yun was sure that Lai Wen's villa must have something priceless hidden in it.
Otherwise, who would spend so much money to find people to guard it 24 hours a day?
Just like those drug lords in movies, they needed someone to protect them 24 hours a day to sleep peacefully. The only difference was that Lai Wen's subordinates didn't have the prestige of those in Africa. They didn't have firearms in their hands.
However, they were also equipped with strong offensive weapons such as electric batons. If someone really wanted to cause trouble, then they might not be able to gain anything.
