Chapter 22 Why Do You Need Laxatives?
[Wait, your back is bruised? Xiao Xie is too delicate!]
[As for the one in front, I think Jiang Yunyao is just too strong...]
[Damn! What you guys said is really making me think too much! Fortunately I know what happened, otherwise I would have thought the wrong thing!]
Jiang Yunyao really couldn't stand him anymore, and since she felt guilty, she agreed.
"Okay, okay, okay! I'll let you do it just once! It's a deal, just once! Next time, I'll still be the one to take the blame!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the person in front of her raised his head. There was no sign of grievance on his face, he was so happy!
Xie Yixing agreed happily, "No problem!"
Jiang Yunyao looked at his smile, suppressed the urge to beat him up, and instead talked about the game of escaping from the castle.
"You said you're not a pawn, and I said I'm not a pawn either, but we have to search for clues together. Without enough trust, we can't cooperate better."
She stroked her chin and paced back and forth, "We have to find a way to completely prove our identity!"
Xie Yixing didn't think this was a problem. "It's simple! Let's make a bet. Whoever lies will be a puppy!"
"Puppy?" Jiang Yunyao felt that this was not a good idea. "It doesn't have any deterrent effect at all! If I were your minion, I could lie to you eight hundred times a day!"
Xie Yixing felt heartbroken when he heard her speak so bluntly.
He was silent for a moment, and suddenly remembered what A Zhao once said: One of the ways to build closer relationships is to exchange secrets with each other!
"Why don't we exchange secrets? Whoever lies will tell the other person's secret!"
Jiang Yunyao stopped.
Secret? That's a possible solution!
Jiang and Xie turned off the microphone and began to exchange secrets.
Xie Yixing insisted on revealing his secret first, "Last year my dad had a stomachache, not because he ate something wrong, but because I put laxatives in his food!"
Jiang Yunyao almost didn't understand what he said, "Does your father know about this?"
What kind of filial behavior is this? It's so filial!
"I don't know! Otherwise how could it be a secret!" Xie Yixing added, "But my mom, my brother, and my sister know, and they promised me to keep it a secret!"
Jiang Yunyao couldn't understand his train of thought, "Why did you put laxatives in?"
"I didn't know it was for my dad. He usually doesn't ask my mom to go deliver food. My dog happened to be constipated that day, so I thought it was for the dog, so I put laxatives in it!"
Jiang Yunyao: “…”
She is too tired to complain!
Xie Yixing reached out and poked her, "I've finished telling you my secret, what about yours?"
Jiang Yunyao has many secrets, such as the system, the novel world, the male and female protagonists... but there is not much to say about them.
She thought about it and remembered the contract that Sister Man mentioned yesterday.
"My secret is that I am the artist with the highest commission in our company, nine to one. I get nine and the company gets one."
Xie Yixing was shocked. "You weren't deceived by your company, were you?! Why would a normal company sign such an unprofitable contract?"
Although he did not take over the family business, he still had some knowledge of this aspect.
With her current fame, the company only takes 10%, so she can't make any money at all. He is even more afraid that she was deceived by the company and signed a fake contract!
Jiang Yunyao shook her head, denying his guess, her expression complicated.
"I had a lawyer verify it, and the contract is genuine. As for why I was given such a high commission...it might be because I beat up my boss!"
Xie Yixing let out an "Ah".
He didn't understand, but he was shocked!
Jiang Yunyao recalled carefully again to make sure she had not missed any details.
She attended a drinking party that night and drank a lot of wine. After coming out of the restaurant, she waited at the door for the company car to pick her up.
While waiting for the bus, she heard a girl next to her say, "Let me go." She thought the girl was being molested, and because of the alcohol, she went up and beat up the man!
After the fight, she found out that the man was her boss!
At that moment, she sobered up! She felt like she might lose her job!
Even when her father called her, she shamefully cried to him about it!
As a result, the next day, the boss not only did not let her kick out of the company, but also upgraded her contract!
Not to mention her, even Sister Man was puzzled!
After listening to Jiang Yunyao's description of what happened that day, Xie Yixing fell silent.
As for the contract upgrade, other than the fact that she beat up her boss, no other explanation makes sense!
"What are they talking about? Why can't I listen too?!"
[Think about Xiao Xie's identity. It might be a wealthy family secret! Let's not listen to it!]
Ahhh, A-Yao and Xiao-Xie are exchanging secrets! They have a little secret in common now!
"This idea is so clever! If everyone shares secrets, wouldn't we be able to find the culprits?"
[What you said earlier is a bit impractical. Some of the guests are not familiar with each other, so it's not suitable for exchanging secrets.]
[I agree! If the secret is too big, people won't dare to hear it; if the secret is too small, there's no guarantee!]
After confirming each other's identities, Jiang and Xie took turns guarding the door to prevent the minions from taking the opportunity to lock them up, while the other went into the room to look for clues.
There were too many books in the library to search one by one, so Jiang Yunyao only glanced at the book covers, looking for more obvious clues.
Finally, she found a palm-sized red box behind the books on the second shelf of the third bookshelf.
Jiang Yunyao showed the box to Xie Yixing. "There is a lock on the box. It can't be opened by force. It seems that we need other clues."
Xie Yixing stared at the lock for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "It can be unlocked!"
Without waiting for Jiang Yunyao to ask, he explained to her.
"My brother's company once developed a smart lock that looked just like this one, but it wasn't fireproof and would automatically unlock when heated. It was later phased out!"
"Not fireproof?" Jiang Yunyao pondered. "I remember Jiang Yue said there's a kitchen on the first floor. Let's go to the kitchen and see if there's a gas stove!"
After Jiang Yunyao finished searching the bookshelf, Xie Yixing went to search the small round table and sofa.
There was a book under one of the sofa corners. Xie Yixing took out a note from the book, which read "Flying Pig".
He flipped through the book again, but there was no clue related to the note.
Jiang Yunyao: "Then go to the kitchen first and open this small box!"
After Jiang and Xie finished finding clues in the library, they were about to report to the group that they were changing floors when they found two unread messages in the group.
The castle owner's daughter-in-law (Lin Wanwan): "I found a green key in the utility room on the third floor and opened the green lock."
Another message was a picture showing that the green lock on the castle gate had been opened.
Jiang Yunyao thought of the heroine's lucky fate, she picked up her phone and typed, sending a message to the group.
The castle owner's daughter (Jiang Yunyao): "Wanwan, how did you find the key?"
Some viewers in the live broadcast room only watched one shot, so they were a little curious, but soon someone who watched the entire shot gave an answer.
Wanwan's luck is so good! She picked up a box and the key fell out by itself!
