Qin Mian never imagined that this wild girl had been playing dumb all along to take advantage of him.

Qin Mian had genuinely believed that this wild girl had taken his words to heart.

Unexpectedly, he was completely fooled by this wild girl from beginning to end.

Tell me, how could Qin Mian not be angry?

Qin Mian had never imagined that this wild girl's thoughts were so profound.

They could even manipulate him at will.

Qin Mian sighed heavily, and the butler suddenly rushed over.

"Oh no, sir!"

Qin Mian: "What happened?"

"Our family's storeroom..."

What happened to the warehouse?

The butler sighed, "There are only some worthless items left in the storeroom; everything else is gone."

"What?" Qin Mian exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be?"

"The warehouse contained decades of the Qin family's wealth; how could it all disappear in an instant?"

The steward said helplessly, "This old servant just went to the storeroom to get some things, only to find that all the dozens of boxes in the storeroom were empty."

The butler reminded Qin Mian, "Master, have you forgotten? Some time ago, you appointed that person to manage the household affairs."

Qin Mian gasped, his blood surging.

Qin Mian never expected that the wild girl had such a trick up her sleeve.

"Hurry up and take inventory to see what's left."

"Also, that wild girl never leaves the manor, so those things must still be inside. Quickly search the manor thoroughly!"

Although Qin Man indulged that wild girl, Qin Mian had given strict orders to the household.

No matter what the young lady wants to do, no one in the manor is allowed to stop her.

But absolutely, absolutely, the girl must not be allowed to show up.

Qin Mian was worried that this wild girl was someone else's pet.

Their goal was the same as his: to win His Majesty's favor.

I guess something went wrong somewhere, which is why he managed to get this lucky break.

Who would have thought that they had brought home a menace?

“Search every inch of her yard. I refuse to believe she can let these things just disappear for no reason.”

Immediately, all the servants in the mansion busied themselves.

Arrest people, arrest people; find things, find things.

Qin Mian stood with his hands on his hips, secretly cursing himself for being so blind these past few days.

It's unbelievable that such a young girl could be played like a fool.

Make sure his men don't find you, otherwise, even if they bring back a corpse, he'll still whip it to vent his anger.

"Master, we have guests visiting the manor."

Qin Mian said unhappily, "Guest? What kind of guest?"

"The person who came did not identify himself, but only said that the master should come over to see them."

Qin Mian was furious. "Go and get rid of them quickly. Can't you see I'm busy?"

Normally, Qin Mian might have gone out to take a look.

But today, Qin Mian has already suffered too much stimulation and simply has no patience left.

Upon hearing this, the servant quickly ran over to report back.

Xiao Chengci and Pei Minxue stood outside the door.

As Pei Minxue suggested, His Majesty will attend in person.

To send a servant to deliver a message is really giving Lord Qin too much face.

Xiao Chengci was quite patient, saying that waiting a while wouldn't hurt.

Pei Minxue almost thought that Xiao Chengci was possessed by something.

Xiao Chengci was made crown prince at a young age. After he ascended the throne, who would dare to make him wait?

Xiao Chengci said to wait, so what could Pei Minxue say? Of course, he would wait.

The servants arrogantly replied that their masters had no time to see them.

Let them go back to where they came from.

Pei Minxue secretly observed His Majesty's expression.

Hmm, Xiao Chengci's smile froze.

Xiao Chengci originally thought that the Qin family had at least taken in Pei Zhi.

To express his gratitude, he became less domineering and had a servant announce the news.

This would also prevent the Qin family from being so frightened that they lost their minds.

As a result, he gave someone face, and they slapped him across the face. What a fine example!

Xiao Chengci waved his hand, and the scattered guards immediately gathered together.

Dozens of guards rushed in, each wielding a sword, and cleared a path for Xiao Chengci.

The servants were so frightened that they trembled with fear.

Xiao Chengci waved his sleeve and went inside, with Pei Minxue following closely behind.

As soon as Xiao Chengci entered the Qin residence, he found it too quiet.

Sometimes, being too quiet isn't a good thing.

Xiao Chengci asked, "Where is your master?"

The servant replied, "Master... is in Miss's courtyard."

Upon hearing the word "Miss," Xiao Chengci's expression instantly improved.

Xiao Chengci said patiently, "Lead the way."

The servant responded and walked ahead of Xiao Chengci.

"Is your master good to your young lady?"

The servant replied, "It's alright."

Xiao Chengci patiently inquired, "Why is it calculated?"

"Everything was fine before, but today... something's strange."

The servants didn't understand why the master, who had previously been so obedient to the young lady, was now acting the same way.

Today, however, they have driven the young lady to the point of jumping into the lake.

However, this was a private matter for the Qin family, and they were just servants, so they didn't dare to inquire about it.

"What's strange?"

"The master came home today, threw a tantrum, and then..."

Qin Mian walked out of Pei Zhi's courtyard, cursing and swearing.

"I just don't believe that bitch has any real skills."
