However, the woman on the other end of the line had already hung up before Ning Ran could finish her sentence.

Qiao Zhan fumed, “Ms. Ning, this woman is so unfriendly. She doesn't even want to see us and wants you to prove your identity. She's making things difficult for us on purpose.”

“Perhaps she became wary and suspected us to have ulterior motives because you found her address. We have to think of a way to deal with this misunderstanding.”

“How do we deal with it? She simply doesn't want to meet us! I will bring some men and drag her out!” Qiao Zhan roared.

“Hey, don't go causing trouble. She may really call the police if you do that. Let me try.”

Ning Ran got down the car and walked toward the entrance of the villa to press the doorbell.

After she pressed the doorbell a few times, Ou Ling's face finally appeared on the intercom screen. The latter indeed looked familiar to Ning Ran. I'm sure I've seen her before.

“Hello, I'm Ning Ran. Ms. Ou, please give me a few minutes. I really need to ask you some questions.”

“Why are you still here? What on earth do you want?”

“I don't have any bad intentions, so don't worry. I rushed all the way here from Livingsfill. I came straight away to meet you after getting off the plane and didn't even bother to rest. I won't disturb you. I just want to ask a few questions, that's all. Please give me a few minutes of your time,” Ning Ran begged.

“Fine. Come in and come to the fifth floor alone. No one else can come with you. Or else, I'll call the police instantly,” Ou Ling relented.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Ning Ran agreed, “Okay, I'll come up alone. Thank you, Ms. Ou.”

Naturally, Qiao Zhan disapproved of Ning Ran's decision to enter the villa alone. “No way! It's too dangerous for you to go alone. I'll come along.”

“No. I finally got her to agree to meet me. She'll get upset If you come along. Wait for me right here. I will come down soon. Don't worry. I will be all right.”

“I'm still worried. What if something happens to you—” Qiao Zhan retorted.

Ning Ran interrupted him, “Nothing will happen. Do you think everyone is as malicious as Ruan Anxi? This is Ms. Ou's permanent residence. What do you think she'll do? Commit murder in her own home? Wait here. I'll be back soon,” Ning Ran said before dashing into the villa and closing the door.

As she was already rather exhausted, she was panting by the time she climbed up to the fifth floor.

After catching her breath, she walked into the spacious living room on that floor.
