Yan Nuo guessed that she might have another motive for coming to the house, so he was not in a hurry to chase her away.
He wanted to see what attracted him to the Yan family.
On this day, Yan Nuo returned home from outside and heard Butler La Pu say, “Miss Vera is here again.” To be able to make the well-mannered La Pu describe Vera’s arrival with the word ‘again’, it could be imagined how much the butler disliked Vera.
He pretended to be surprised and asked her, “Where is she?”
“Miss Vera is very diligent today,” La Pu said with a strange expression. “It’s the day of the house’s cleaning. Miss Vera is cleaning the house with the servants.”
Yan Nuo smiled mysteriously.
“Oh, since she asked for it, let her do it.”
“But she’s a guest.”
Yan Nuo said, “If she was the mistress of this family, I wouldn’t allow her to do these things. If she wants to do such a lowly and tiring job, let her do it.” She was only worthy of doing these lowly jobs.
La Pu stopped talking.
Yan Nuo logged into the OK app. Seeing that Ji Yinbing was actually online, he privately messaged her.
Yan Nuo: [That white lotus is here again.]
Ji Yinbing said: [To be honest, I’m a little angry.]
Yan Nuo: [Huh?]
Ji Yinbing: [My man’s first love runs to my boyfriend every day, and I’m far away. What if the two of you accidentally fall in love again?]
Yan Nuo: [You’re questioning me and adding insult to injury.]
Ji Yinbing: [I’m just warning you.]
Ji Yinbing: [Let’s stop talking. I’m a little tired. I have to take a nap.]
Yan Nuo was quite surprised and asked her: [Tired? What have you been busy with recently?]
Ji Yinbing: [It’s just what I usually do. Perhaps I didn’t rest well and always want to sleep. Let’s stop talking. I’ll sleep for a while.]
Yan Nuo: [Okay.]
He put down his phone and pondered for a moment before getting up and going upstairs.
Upstairs, the servants were squatting on the ground and wiping the floor. They were only qualified to wipe the floor with their status. The lowly servants were standing and cleaning the house. Yan Nuo did not find it strange that he did not see Vera among them.
He walked around the second floor but did not see anyone. He went to the third floor.
Vera was not on the third floor either.
Yan Nuo continued upstairs and arrived on the foulth floor.
The fourth floor was the area where his mother and father used to live. Over the years, no one usually came upstairs except when it was regularly cleaned. The fourth floor was huge, but it was planned extravagantly. There was only a bedroom, an oversized cloakroom, a music room with several instruments, and a large study.
The study was a restricted area. Other than Yan Nuo and Yan Yu, no one else had entered.
The study had a combination lock, fingerprints, and voice lock.
The Yan family had many gray industries, and many unspeakable secrets were in this study room. When Yan Nuo came upstairs, Vera was wiping an antique vase in the corridor outside the study room.
“You can’t wipe this vase with a wet cloth.”
Yan Nuo’s voice suddenly sounded behind her head, and Vera trembled in fear.
“Ah!” She suddenly turned her head and looked at Yan Nuo in panic. “Brother… Brother Yan Nuo…” Vera’s face was a little pale. This person had a guilty conscience and felt that there were ghosts everywhere. It would be strange if she didn’t get frightened when she saw
Yan Nuo,
Yan Nuo nodded.
He told Vera, “This is what maids and servants do. You don’t have to do this.”
Vera said, “I have nothing to do either.”
“That’s up to you.”
Yan Nuo walked to the study and quickly pressed the password. He checked the fingerprints and voices again before opening the door. Vera looked in time to see a room full of books and rows of cold weapons. Before Yan Nuo closed the door, he said casually, “There are many important things in this study. Everything my mother and father used to use is inside.”
“Vera, try not to come upstairs again. If anything is missing, everyone who goes upstairs will be a suspect.”
Then, Yan Nuo closed the door.
Vera only saw the tip of the iceberg in the study.
Yan Nuo entered the study and looked at the things in the study. His expression turned gloomy. There were seven to eight portraits hanging on the wall on the left side of the door. They were all made by Yan Mei for Angus. Even Yan Nuo could not admit that their father was really a good-looking person.
He looked at the photos and thought to himself, Is what Vera is looking for inside?
Vera still hadn’t found what she had. She refused to give up.
For the next month and a half, she came to the Yan family’s house regardless of whether it was windy or raining. This afternoon, when she arrived at the Yan family’s house and saw Ji Yinbing playing tennis with Yan Nuo on the lawn, she stopped in her tracks.
She was back…
Vera adjusted her expression and walked towards the two of them.
“Brother Yan Nuo… Sister-in-law, you’re back?” The people playing stopped at the same time.
Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo looked at Vera together.
Vera would never change her persona. She was still wearing a dress and her long black hair was draped over her shoulders. She had the standard image of a white lotus. Ji Yinbing nodded. At this moment, Yan Nuo happened to receive a call. She put down her tennis racket and returned to her room to answer the call.
Ji Yinbing picked up the tennis racket and handed it to Vera.
“Let’s play a round together?”
Vera said she wouldn’t.
Ji Yinbing’s face suddenly turned cold. She stuffed the camera into Vera’s arms and said expressionlessly, “Vera, how much longer are you going to act?”
Vera was surprised, but her expression did not change.
“Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?”
Ji Yinbing stared at Vera’s misty eyes and sneered. “People who haven’t lost their memories, stop pretending. I saw through your disguise long ago. You recognized me the first time I put on those earrings.”
She smiled and said, “That’s right. Those are indeed the earrings you used to wear.”
Vera almost admitted it.
But she managed not to show it. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Sister-in-law.”
Seeing that her bait was unsuccessful, Ji Yinbing clicked her tongue and quickly said, “Actually, Yan Nuo saw it when I took your earrings away. Not only did he see it, he’s also my accomplice.”
“Nonsense!” Vera suddenly lost control and roared at Ji Yinbing, “Impossible. Brother Yan Nuo was clearly with me at that time…” As soon as she finished speaking, Vera covered her mouth.
She met Ji Yinbing’s teasing eyes and was furious.
“You did it on purpose!”
Ji Yinbing admitted boldly, “Yes.”
Vera asked again, “Brother Yan Nuo knows too?”
She said, “I don’t know about that.”
‘You won’t tell him?”
“I told him.”
“Then would he believe it?”
“How should I know?”
Vera was flustered, but she quickly calmed down. She said, “So what if he knows? Brother Yan Nuo won’t hurt me.”
Ji Yinbing laughed. “You’re really naive.” She threw away the tennis racket and said, “So what if you were his lover? You betrayed the Black Fiend and caused several brothers to die tragically. Just based on this, you can’t escape responsibility.”.
