Lin Qingtong raised a mocking smile and said, "I haven't even asked you what you did, where did Jiang Nuan go?"

Qi Huimin's face showed an unnatural expression as she began to explain.

“He came to the villa and caused trouble, so I spent some money to send him to a mental hospital.”

But in reality, she wasn't willing to spend a single penny; she simply locked the person in the basement.

Lin Qingtong did not doubt Qi Huimin's words, but simply said calmly.

"Don't worry, I didn't say anything to Jiang Hao. After all, I wanted to see just how interesting his expression would be when he found out for himself."

"Remember to let me know when the time comes."

Seeing Lin Qingtong's expression, Qi Huimin breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Lin Qingtong didn't say anything.

She gave an awkward laugh and quickly made an excuse to leave, afraid that staying with Lin Qingtong any longer would give her away.

As Lin Qingtong watched her departing figure, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

This person looks suspicious; we need to investigate him discreetly.

As soon as Lin Qingtong stepped into the manor, the nanny who was taking care of her mother, Su Wanjun, rushed up to her anxiously.

"Young Madam, please go and check on Madam Wanjun. She just received a phone call and has locked herself in her room and refuses to come out."

"I vaguely heard the name Lin Yan. Who is that?"

Lin Qingtong's expression changed immediately.

After her mother moved out, she told her to completely cut off contact with Lin Yan, but unexpectedly, he still came looking for her.

She hurried to her mother's room and knocked gently.

"Mom, open the door, it's me."

He gently pushed the door, and it creaked open by itself.

The room was empty.
