Chapter 510 - THE MAIN HOUSE OF THE HAN FAMILY
"Noah, are you there? I've got something to talk about."
Mo Yuan paused, pulling the last fingernail of Qi Ting. He glanced at Noah.
"I'll take care of it," saying that Noah left the room. He closed the door so that she couldn't hear anything.
Looking at Han Luo and raising an eyebrow. "Punk, what do you need?"
"Daddy said he remembered who the truck driver was. It was Qi Ting."
"Then, we have the confirmation. He can't escape jail and whoever he had associated with."
"Daddy also said that Qi Ting had a good relationship with youngest uncle."
"Han Cheng?" Noah frowned. "I've already contacted other inspectors. They notified me that there was nothing wrong with Han Cheng's activities. They have been tracking him for five years."
"Five years? Why did they resume the investigation after so long?"
"I can't tell you classified information. However, I can guarantee that his bank accounts don't show anything suspicious. Although Qi Ting is the culprit, we can't ask for a search warrant because those two have a good connection."
Han Luo mentioned, "If youngest uncle, he can attach a listening device in eldest uncle's shirt. Knowing eldest uncle, he won't suspect a thing.
"If my daddy is dead and the suspect becomes my eldest uncle for the motive of taking over the company, then youngest uncle surely wins a jackpot."
Noah couldn't agree more. However, getting a search warrant would be a problem. The Han Family was a powerful traditional family in China.
Those two were deep in thought. They didn't notice Han Sheng Ming coming out.
"Why are you so gloomy? Any bad news?" he asked.
Han Luo came back to her senses and responded with a forced smile. She told him what she heard from her father.
"Uncle Cheng? How can he…" Han Sheng Ming was at a loss for words.
Han Luo remarked, "Even if it isn't him, it has to be someone from our family."
Noah reminded her, "Without a warrant, we cannot search the main house of the Han Family."
Han Luo said, "Then, we have to pretend that we are letting the police search somewhere else. We will reside in the main house and secretly look into this matter."
Noah was startled. "Did you just come up with the plan?"
"I just did," she confirmed.
[A/N: Me too (*w*) ]
Noah patted her shoulder, feeling proud. "Let's not discuss it in front of Qi Ting. No one knows what he has in his sleeves."
The other two agreed.
After a long journey, they reached China. They met Han Cheng at the airport. He welcomed them with a pleasant smile.
"I'm glad you all came safely. But why only four of you? Where is Noah?" He looked around but couldn't find Noah.
"Noah went to meet his family first. It had been so long since he last met them. That's why we didn't stop him," Han Luo bluntly lied.
Noah took a Secret Service car and took Qi Ting along with him.
If Han Cheng was truly the mastermind, he should have known by now that Qi Ting was caught. He shouldn't have any hope left for his friend.
Han Cheng ordered his chauffeur to take their luggage one by one to the car.
After that, he told them, "Let's take you to the main house. Your grandfather is eagerly waiting for you."
Han Luo sneered inwardly. However, she didn't show it. She smiled at him and said, "I'm also looking forward to seeing him. I don't even remember his face."
Han Cheng slightly coughed.
They were driven to the main house of the Han Family. Han Luo realized that she had no recollection of this place. However, she had to agree that this house deserved to be called the main house of the Han Family.
This place wasn't just huge. It was massive. The house should be called a huge mansion. it wouldn't be wrong to call it a mini palace.
They found a large number of maids and butlers welcoming them. They all respectfully bowed and greeted them.
"Welcome home Young Master and Young Miss Han."
Han Sheng Ming and Han Luo froze at the entrance. This grand welcome, they weren't expecting this.
Han Luo counted. There were at least twenty maids, ten footmen, and ten butlers. She was amazed.
A butler came forward. He was the oldest of all employees. He respectfully greeted them.
"It's an honor to have you back and to serve you, Young Master and Young Miss Han. I am Qi Fei, the butler in charge. If you have any problems while staying here, please let me know. I will fix it as soon as possible."
'Qi Fei, Qi Ting's father!' Han Luo did her best to control her urge to look at Tang Yujin and Mo Yuan.
She carefully observed the old man. He seemed calm, quiet, responsible, and sincere. She couldn't understand how his son turned into a murderer.
She smiled at him and said, "Thank you. We will be in your care."
Han Sheng Ming merely nodded. For him, he had no attachment to this place. Since childhood, he didn't like coming here.
After that, they were taken to the rooms that were arranged for them. Each of them got one room for themselves. Only Han Sheng Ming and Han Luo's rooms were spacious and more luxurious.
They were too tired to look around the huge mansion. Han Luo laid down on the bed, felt the soft mattress under her body, and instantly fell asleep.
The next time she woke up, it was already evening. Upon seeing the dark room, she thought it was midnight. When she checked the time, she was surprised that it was only 7 pm.
Then, she remembered, 'Oh yeah, I'm in China. Here the sun sets sooner.'
In England, the sun used to set at midnight. In winter, the sun would set early but still not before ten in the evening.
However, in Asian countries, the sun would set around five or six. During summer, the days were longer and during winter, the nights were longer.
She got up and opened her luggage. Taking her toothbrush, she went to the washroom. After freshening up, she went outside. The opposite room belonged to Mo Yuan.
She knocked on the door.. A few seconds later, Mo Yuan opened the door.
