"Don't you guys know why I called you out?" Jiang Dong said. "You five took money from others and sold information about Wutong Bay. Have you forgotten the confidentiality agreement you signed?"

All five of them panicked. "Master Zhan, we didn't!"

Zhan Jingting sat on the sofa with his eyes closed, not paying any attention.

"I dared to drag you out, so naturally I have evidence," Jiang Dong roared. "You can guard against thieves within your own ranks day and night, but you can't guard against thieves within your own ranks. Since you dared to do this, you must bear the consequences! Guards!"

Several maids hurriedly knelt down, pleading, "Master Zhan, spare us! Master Zhan, spare us!"

Ruan Wanyi was furious. "How dare you betray Jing Ting! It's outrageous! Explain yourself! Who bribed you and how many messages you sent out!"

One of the maids cried and begged for mercy, "Madam, I only took some money and reported the daily situation of Wutong Bay to Zhan Xiuwen. I really didn't say anything else confidential!"

Ruan Wanyi was furious. "No wonder everyone outside knows so much about Wanwan's situation. They're all saying she's become a vegetable, and that Jingting is so depressed he can't eat or drink. They're making it sound so real. It turns out it was a traitor in the family who leaked it!"

"You're not telling me because you don't have access to confidential information!" Jiang Dong bluntly exposed him.

"Madam, spare me! Master Zhan, spare me! I truly know I was wrong!"

"Master Zhan, spare our lives! We'll never dare to do it again..."

The other maids also begged for mercy!

Zhan Jingting raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows. "Jiangdong."

"Yes." Jiang Dong nodded and instructed the bodyguard, "Take him away."

"yes."

Several maids were quickly dragged away, crying and screaming.

"Damn it, absolutely damn it!" Ruan Wanyi grew angrier the more she thought about it. "Jingting, have you finished investigating? Could there be a mole among those present?"

"Madam, there are none for now," Jiang Dong reported. "Actually, the people who serve at home are all selected through multiple screenings before they can work in Wutong Bay, but some people can't resist the temptation and betray us halfway through."

Zheng Ma immediately knelt down. "Young Master, I am the housekeeper of Wutong Bay. I am responsible for this incident. Please punish me."

Ruan Wanyi couldn't bear it and spoke up for Zheng Ma, "When it comes to loyalty to this family, Zheng Ma is second to none. Jingting, now that the traitor has been found, let's leave it at that."

“Madam, you don’t need to plead for me.” Zheng Ma said with her head down. “The country has its laws and the family has its rules. I deserve to be punished for my mistake, and it has nothing to do with loyalty.”

Ruan Wanyi didn't know what else to say.

Zhan Jingting slowly opened his eyes, stood up and said, "As punishment, Aunt Zheng will have a year's salary deducted. From today onwards, I don't want to have to personally handle even such a small matter."

Zheng Ma nodded, "Yes, young master, I understand. I will definitely strengthen my precautions in the future and never let this happen again."

Zhan Jingting didn't say anything more and went upstairs.

The man had only gone halfway when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

A small figure sat at the top of the stairs, as if waiting for him.
