Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

inside the house.

All eyes were on the maid.

The other servants either scrutinized or looked down on them, and many even seemed to be gloating.

"No, that's not the case..."

The maid hurriedly squatted down, intending to pick up the things on the ground.

"Meow!"

【Roll, roll, roll! 】

The coal ball bared its teeth at the maid, its expression extremely fierce.

The maid was startled and fell to the ground, stammering, "You, you..."

Unexpectedly, Coal Ball ignored her, stepped onto a bottle, and stared at the maid with its bright green eyes.

"What's this?" Little Jiu Jiu quickly ran over and pulled a can out from under the coal ball's feet.

The jar was covered, and dark red marks could be seen on the edge. It had a strange, fishy-sweet smell.

The maid's face visibly showed signs of panic.

"President Qin, please listen to me, this..."

Xiao Jiu Jiu looked up at her and smiled, "Hehe, is this the jar you use to store Gu worms?"

The small jar is made of jade and is in good condition, but it's a bit of a waste to use it to store Gu worms.

The maid's eyes widened: ...

She never expected that she would be exposed without saying anything.

What should we do?

"I, I don't know what you are talking about..."

The maid shook her head and denied it: "This is the jar I use to store medicine. I'm getting old and often have relapses, so I carry this little jar with me."

"The contents of the jar are a folk remedy prescribed for me by a barefoot doctor; I don't know what it is."

The maid became more and more confident as she spoke, and her initial panic disappeared.

Xiao Jiu Jiu smiled and said, "Is that so?"

I remember Jiu Gu really likes drinking, so I'll get you a couple to go with your drinks, okay?

"No!"

The maid replied instinctively.

Qin Yuyang said coldly, "What? Didn't you say it was just ordinary medicine? Why are you so agitated? Is there some shady reason behind it?"

The maid trembled, lowered her head, and dared not speak.

"It really was you!"

Ye Xuan stood up, pointed at the maid, her face full of anger.

His chest heaved violently, clearly indicating that he was furious.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiujiu quietly moved a little further away.

"Don't get yourself sick from getting angry."

Qin Yuyang whispered words of comfort to him from the side.

Ye Xuan brushed Qin Yuyang's hand away and walked to the maid.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap rang out, and everyone in the room held their breath.

Ye Xuan coldly questioned, "Xiao Limei! Haven't we treated you well enough?"

You mentioned your daughter wanted to go to school, so we conveniently provided a school for her.

The servants nearby were in an uproar.

"Is there such a good thing?"

"She's too greedy!"

"Madam is so lovely, I'm so envious."

Everyone was whispering.

The housekeeper glared at them, and they finally quieted down.

Xiao Limei is a long-time employee of the Qin family, and Qin Yuyang and the others have always treated her well.

Ye Xuan continued angrily, "You said your husband was short of work and wanted to stay with your daughter, so I left them there."

We even give you three days off every month to go back to G City to reunite with your family. Your work isn't busy during the week either. What more do you want from us?

Ye Xuan never expected that her good intentions would end up like this.

"Madam, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. If you don't like this bottle, I'll throw it away."

Xiao Limei begged for mercy frantically, her face unable to hide her worry.

If she gets fired, she'll probably never find a suitable job again in her life.

They will be blacklisted by all domestic service companies.

She cried pitifully, yet dared to distort the truth in front of everyone, making everyone think that the bottle was still ordinary.

"Ha, even now you still won't admit it?"

Qin Yuyang curled his lips into a cold smile, his sharp eyes sweeping over the maid: "Tell me, who exactly sent you here?"

"Speak!" Ye Xuan shouted angrily.

Xiao Limei trembled with fear, large beads of sweat rolling down her forehead. "I...I didn't do anything, really, Madam, please believe me!"

She started crying as she spoke, looking as if Ye Xuan had bullied her.

Ye Xuan frowned: "You helped someone else and almost got my whole family killed, and now you still have the nerve to cry?"

If this happened in the entertainment industry, she'd definitely be considered a scheming, manipulative woman.

Unfortunately, no one here felt sorry for her.

"So, if you've killed someone, crying will make everything alright?"

Xiao Jiu Jiu tilted her head: "You're amazing! This is the first time I've ever met someone with such a thick skin."

Xiao Limei's lips twitched, and her face stiffened.

"Speak!" Qin Yuyang looked at her coldly.

Seeing that no one was moved, Xiao Limei lowered her head and whispered, "I... I can't say it, if I say it I..."

"Did not say?"

Qin Yuyang raised an eyebrow and said in a chilling tone, "You don't have to talk. Let the police interrogate you themselves."

"Murder for money?"

Xiao Jiujiu tilted her head.

Xiao Limei hurriedly said, "President Qin, President Qin, please let me explain. Things aren't actually as you think. Doing it this way..."

Xiao Limei couldn't think of anything else to say for the time being, so she could only stare at the ground and try to stall for time.

"He's very stubborn."

Qin Yuyang said to the butler beside him, "Call Captain Yu immediately and have him bring people to take Xiao Limei away."

"Yes!"

Without saying a word, the housekeeper went to make a phone call.

Seeing this, Xiao Limei broke down and shouted, "Don't shout, I'll talk, I really will... Yes, it was my husband, Lao Lü, who made me do this."

"Lao Lu?"

The couple exchanged a glance, seemingly unable to recall who the person was.

The butler, however, knew much more: "Master, Madam, it's like this."

Old Lu is her husband, the one you arranged the job for.

"We've been so good to your family, and this is how you repay us?" Ye Xuan's eyes widened, her anger clearly visible.

Seeing this, the butler didn't say anything more and quickly returned to his seat, becoming a quiet background figure.

Old Lü is Xiao Limei's husband. He doesn't do much in G City except work as a gardener.

The branches grew a little too tall and didn't look as nice, so I just did a little pruning—a leisurely task.

Over the years, Ye Xuan has trusted Xiao Limei quite a bit.

They also treated Lao Lü quite well and never put on airs.

"thump!"

Xiao Limei immediately knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness, saying, "Madam, Master, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong."

Please, let me go! I'll never do it again!

"Meow~"

She didn't explain clearly and was trying to gloss over the issue.

Coal Ball's sharp, emerald-green eyes stared intently at Xiao Limei, watching her every move.

"But you didn't explain clearly why your husband wanted you to do this," Xiao Jiujiu said, her eyes darting around as she repeated what Meiqiu had said.

They completely ignored Xiao Limei's performance.

Ye Xuan glanced at Xiao Jiu Jiu, then looked coldly at Xiao Li Mei: "Explain yourself, why did your husband, Lao Lü, do this?"

"If you don't explain clearly, there are plenty of ways to make you explain clearly," Qin Yuyang added coldly from the side.

After he finished speaking, he looked up at the butler.

The butler understood immediately: "You lot, get out of here. Don't get in the way. Have you finished your work?"

Soon, only Xiao Limei and Xiao Jiujiu remained in the living room.

Xiao Limei trembled with fear: "I, you..."

Her mind was filled with images of horror movies she had watched before.

I was so scared I was trembling.

“Yes, it’s because…” Xiao Limei stammered, as if she had some unspeakable secret she couldn’t bring herself to say.

Qin Yuyang was getting impatient: "Speak quickly!"

"If you don't cooperate, we'll have to send her away. Your daughter's education ends here; we won't let her go to school anymore." Ye Xuan's face also turned cold.

Now, Xiao Limei panicked completely: "No, no, madam, please let my daughter continue her studies, I'll talk, I'll talk."

The three people and the cat were all staring at her.

Xiao Limei sobbed as she said, "Old Lü and I are actually in our second marriages. His son is grown up and is gambling outside, so he's being chased by debt collectors and owes a lot of money."

"Gambling?" Little Jiu Jiu tilted her head. "If you're gambling, you should cut off your hand!"

Swallowing hard, Xiao Limei continued, "Old Lu had no choice at the time."

One day, he excitedly told me that someone had promised to help Lao Lü's son resolve this matter if we helped him.

The man said all you need to do is put the contents of this bottle into your wine.

I love Lao Lü.

He said it wasn't a big problem, that's why I agreed to help him. I really didn't mean it.

They went so far as to target Qin Yuyang and Ye Xuan because others promised to help him pay off his debts.

After speaking quickly, Xiao Limei lowered her head, not daring to look at their expressions.

Qin Yuyang's face turned ashen. He never imagined that he would raise a tiger that would turn out to be his own enemy!

This person absolutely cannot be kept around.

"Someone, bring Lü Jian back to me!" Qin Yuyang was so angry that he directly mentioned Old Lü's name.

Qin Yuyang's bodyguard nodded and left.

It takes some time to travel from Beijing back to G City and back again.

"What should we do about her?" Ye Xuan asked Xiao Limei.

Qin Yuyang's eyes were cold: "Wait, I can wait. This matter must be resolved today."

"whee."

Xiao Jiu Jiu smiled and suddenly said, "Then Aunt Ye can call that person now and arrange to meet them tomorrow."

"Makes sense."

Ye Xuan nodded.

She took out her phone and dialed Ye Yun's number.

Ye Yun's phone rang twice before she answered: "Oh, isn't this Ye Xuan, the busy lady? What brings you to call me?"

"Let's get down to business."

Ye Xuan's voice sounded quite cold, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Pfft."

With a light scoff, Ye Yun said, "Speak, what's the important matter?"

"I need to meet with you tomorrow. Bring that so-called master along, understand?" Even when asking for a favor, Ye Xuan's attitude remained arrogant.

If she speaks softly and gently, that's when she's most likely to be seen through.

Ye Yun, unsuspecting, asked, "What's wrong? Is your little troublemaker who just came back causing chaos?"

"You don't need to worry about all that, just tell me if you're bringing it or not!"

Ye Xuan's voice sounded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Ye Yun burst into laughter: "Hahaha, I told you back then that I would introduce you to a master, but you weren't willing."

I told you that little thing was a jinx, but you didn't believe me.

"Now even people are begging to come to them? Hilarious!"

After laughing for a while without hearing Ye Xuan's next words, Ye Yun finally spoke up: "Are you unhappy? Are you afraid that little jinx will tear your house down?"

Have you finished laughing?

Ye Xuan suppressed her anger and said coldly, "Are you going to bring him or not? If not, I'll find another master."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Hearing that she was really anxious, Ye Yun quickly said, "Okay, okay, don't be angry. Fine, I'll take it. We can have lunch together tomorrow."

"Since you're in such a sorry state, let's book the restaurant as Private Kitchen. It's on us, so remember to come."

"Okay!" Ye Xuan didn't want to hear any more and hung up the phone.

Seeing Ye Xuan's reaction, Ye Yun wasn't angry; instead, she smiled.

This means she really broke down!

After hanging up the phone, Ye Xuan's previous emotions disappeared, and she looked very calm.

Xiao Jiu Jiu hurriedly said, "Aunt Ye's acting skills are so good, she should go out and film more movies!"

"How is it, Xiao Jiu? Is it okay?" Ye Xuan turned to look at Xiao Jiu Jiu, her tone carrying a hint of ingratiation.

Acting is her forte, so she should give it her all!

Nodding, Xiao Jiujiu praised, "Aunt Ye is great."

She's going to meet the master tomorrow, and she's eager to see what kind of master is so amazing.

Receiving the praise improved Ye Xuan's mood considerably.

Upstairs, Qin Hao clung to the railing and looked down.

It's one thing for Dad to be taken away.

Now he always has this feeling that his mother is going to be taken away from him too.

"Qin Hao! What are you doing squatting there!" Qin Yuyang leaned his head back on the sofa.

When I looked up, I saw Qin Hao squatting by the railing.

He doesn't look very bright.

It's kind of scary late at night.

"Dad, let me explain." Qin Hao hurriedly tried to pull his head back in.

result……

His head was stuck in the railing, and he couldn't move at all.

Qin Hao burst into tears, crying out, "Dad, I... I'm choking!"

"Serves you right for wandering around! You deserve it!" Ye Xuan complained as she ran upstairs.

She glanced at Qin Hao's position and couldn't help but complain, "You managed to squeeze out, so why can't you squeeze back in?"

"I just wandered around here, but now I can't get out."

Qin Hao looked aggrieved, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Get some soap," Xiao Jiu Jiu said quietly.

Qin Yuyang, who was standing next to him, quickly grabbed a bottle of shower gel.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu Jiu brought over some water.

The shower gel and water mixed together, making it slippery.

It was smeared all over Qin Hao's head and the railing.

With so much shower gel as lubrication, Qin Hao struggled to free his head from the railing.

He held it in for a long time, until his ears turned red.

"Wow!!!"

Qin Hao felt ashamed and burst into tears.

Little Nine-Nine: ?

You're the one who started crying first.

Ye Xuan felt annoyed just looking at this unlucky kid: "Alright, alright, go back to your room and take a shower, take it several times and make sure you're clean."

Qin Hao is now incredibly slippery, like a catfish.

"Mom, don't you love me anymore?" Qin Hao looked at Ye Xuan pitifully, trying to win back her maternal love.

He patted Qin Hao's head and said, "Be good, listen to me."

Qin Hao left, completely bewildered.

Three hours later.

In the dead of night, bodyguards escorted Lü Jian back from G City...
