Ah-Zhong expected Tangtang to say that and made preparations beforehand, so he wasn’t afraid. He feigned a stunned expression as he asked, “Little Young Master, you can’t wildly say things like that! I’ve been with Madam for so many years, and I’m undyingly loyal. Why would I tell you to do such a thing?
“Although I also really hope it was me who did this so Madam will be okay. Unfortunately, Chief Liu won’t believe you even if you say that…”
As Ah-Zhong tried to clear his name, he didn’t forget to express his loyalty and pretend to be a good person.
Hmph, little brat! You want to drag me in? You’re too naive!
Words alone weren’t proof. Plus, Tangtang was a child, so what he said was completely useless.
Yin Yuerong was also aware of that fact…
However, it was enough.
This child might loathe her but had a kind-hearted nature and couldn’t bear it when he saw her being taken away.
To her, it was already enough that Tangtang could step forward and say what he said at a time like this.
When Tangtang heard Ah-Zhong, he looked at Ah-Zhong like he was looking at an idiot. “Ah-Zhong, don’t tell me that you thought I was a feeble-minded child this whole time?”
Are you saying you aren’t a child? Are you saying you’re stupid?
Although Ah-Zhong thought that, he maintained his courteous front. “Of course not, Little Young Master! You’re naturally exceptionally intelligent, Little Young Master!”
“Oh…” Tangtang nodded. “Since I’m not an idiot, then it appears you’re the idiot. Why do you think I wouldn’t be cautious when you acted completely out of character and used toys and snacks to tempt me to do a strange task?”
The child’s words made Ah-Zhong’s heart indescribably skip a beat. This child’s expression was truly too calm and didn’t resemble a child who didn’t know anything.
However, Ah-Zhong still didn’t think such a young child could know anything. Moreover, it was useless even if he did.
Ah-Zhong feigned ignorance. “Little Young Master, what are you saying? I don’t understand!”
Tangtang docilely smiled. “It appears you aren’t only idiotic but idiotic beyond cure.”
Tangtang then dug out an object from his pocket and turned to Chief Liu. “I know words alone aren’t proof, so this is my proof.”
Yin Yuerong immediately saw what Tangtang was holding. That was… the fountain pen I gave Tangtang a few days ago…
This child actually carried it on him constantly…?
“What is this?” Chief Liu frowned.
Tangtang pressed the power button on the pen and Ah-Zhong’s voice immediately drifted out from the pen.
This pen was equipped with a recording function.
[Ah-Zhong: Little br—Little Young Master!]
[Tangtang: Oh it’s you, Ah-Zhong! Do you need something?]
[Little Young Master, this is candy and toys I bought for you! See if you like them! Little Young Master, do you want them? I can give all of these to you as long as you do me a tiny favor!]
…
Tangtang expressionlessly asked, “Do you want to keep listening?”
When Ah-Zhong heard his own voice ringing out from the pen, he was dumbstruck.
From his interactions with Tangtang the past few days, Ah-Zhong perceived Tangtang as a cute and innocent bat who only knew how to act like a spoiled child and play cute. He never expected the child to be cunning enough to specifically record a random conversation he had with him.
“Madam… Chief Liu… I was just randomly chatting with Little Young Master…” Ah-Zhong finally panicked.
Chief Liu shot him a cold glance. “Quiet. Keep listening.”
Soon, Tangtang resumed the recording.
