Wei Lai glanced at her.
Guo Cui chuckled awkwardly, pretending to slap her own mouth. "Look at me, Supervisor Wei—do you think once those two are dead, I can leave Silent Garden?"
After speaking, she cautiously sneaked a glance at Wei Lai.
She had already been stuck in this garden for ten years—a full decade. She couldn't step outside even once, couldn't contact the outside world, couldn't play with her phone. Her meals were delivered weekly by someone at a designated spot. This was in the mountains, and every winter proved unbearable, not to mention the added torment of caring for two elderly people—one disabled and the other blind. She couldn't take it anymore. But in the Yu family, a place where servants were militarized under strict control, unless the higher-ups gave permission, even the thought of leaving Silent Garden would bring upon her merciless punishment.
