Chapter 2416: Take good care of Tangtang
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yin Yuerong aloofly replied, “Of course, as you wish.”
1Yin Yuerong quickly regained her composure. She normally had an unyielding attitude and enforced laws especially strictly, so she made many enemies. People had reported her out of sheer displeasure before.
However, she’d always been cautious and careful and didn’t allow anyone to gain leverage on her. Hence, the majority of those people only reported her to repulse her.
Whether it was her ancestral Yin residence or Wanmei Villa, they were both tight as an iron tub, and no problems should arise.
Upon hearing affirmation from her, Chief Liu waved his hand and ordered his men to search swiftly.
Yin Yuerong called Auntie Qiao over. “Auntie Qiao!”
Auntie Qiao, who was standing on pins and needles, rushed over. “Yes, Madam? What are your orders?”
“Have people take good care of Tangtang. Don’t let him come to the front.”
1Auntie Qiao knew that Yin Yuerong was afraid this display would scare Tangtang and quickly answered, “Yes, Madam…”
She had always been by Madam’s side and knew Madam the best. She was well aware Madam had nothing to do with Qin Zong’s dirty business, so how could she secretly be hiding something as important as Qin Zong’s account book?
However, Chief Liu came so menacingly and said it with such certainty that Auntie Liu couldn’t help but worry…
1Within five minutes, a young man in uniform hastily returned with an item in his hold. “Chief! I’ve found it!”
1When Yin Yuerong saw that young man walk out of her study with an unfamiliar red, carved wooden box, coldness flickered through her eyes.
She’d never seen this box before. How did it appear in her study?
Chief Liu quickly walked over and opened the box, discovering a celadon porcelain dish laying inside.
Chief Liu ordered, “Break the box apart.”
The young man obeyed and pulled out a dagger, carefully prying the exquisite wooden box apart.
A moment later, the thicker board at the bottom was pried open with a kachak. The box actually had a hidden layer and inside the hidden layer was an item wrapped in a brown paper bag.
The subordinate exclaimed and handed the item over. “Chief!”
Chief Liu slowly opened the item. It was evidently Qin Zong’s ledger…
1“Director Yin, what do you have to say now?” Chief Liu’s expression was chilly.
Yin Yuerong stared at the ledger, a storm brewing on her face. “Heh…”
Say what? In this type of situation, there truly wasn’t much she could say anymore…
She was overly confident and never expected someone to place this item inside her study without any notice.
This was the scene that met Auntie Qiao when she returned. She turned pale with fright. “Chief Liu, that’s impossible! There must be some misunderstanding! Our madam has always acted honestly, so how could she possibly do something like this? Someone must have intentionally planted this ledger there!”
Chief Liu shot her a cold look. “Plant? This is Wanmei Villa! May I ask who’s capable enough to openly place something like this inside Director Yin’s study?”
Auntie Qiao replied in a panic, “Madam’s study is tightly secured and no one can enter without permission indeed, but…”
Before Auntie Qiao could finish, Chief Liu interrupted her, “Since that’s the case, there’s no mistaking it!”
Auntie Qiao reflexively glanced at Yin Yuerong. What she didn’t finish saying was… but Little Young Master could freely enter as he wished…
