Xiang Yuan nodded, her brows furrowed tightly. She wanted to go directly to the basement to check the situation, but it was inconvenient with her men there.
After hesitating for a while, she decided to wait and see.
And where is Yunbei at this time?
She was in Xiang Yuan's room.
The reason why Xiang Yuan didn't notice her was because she was hiding in the space.
Yun Bei originally wanted to leave before Xiang Yuan and the others came in, but Xiang Yuan blocked her way out. She had no choice but to hide in the space first.
She thought, she would leave after Xiang Yuan's people left. Or maybe it wouldn't be too late to leave after nightfall.
Xiang Yuan searched the house again but still found nothing, feeling a little frustrated.
Her intuition told her that the man was still at home, but she had searched everywhere except the basement and found nothing.
Could the other party be in the basement?
After much thought, Xiang Yuan still felt uneasy. So, she returned to her room and prepared to check the mechanism to see if she could find anything.
Xiang Yuan's expression changed instantly at this sight. She was always careful and would mark the switch. But now, that mark was gone.
Therefore, the person who broke into her house must have touched this switch. In other words, the things in her secret room were likely seen by the other party.
She wasn't worried about the gold, silver, and treasures inside, because even if they took them, they wouldn't be able to take much. She was worried about the account books and other documents.
Especially the account book, which contained many things that could not be seen in public. If it fell into the hands of outsiders, not only would she and Mu Yuanqing be doomed, but even her father would be implicated.
No, she had to tell her father and let him prepare in advance so that he wouldn't be caught off guard if something went wrong.
However, my father was still at work, and it was difficult to call him at work. So, I could only wait a little longer until my father got home from get off work.
However, she still decided to take a look at the basement. What if that person was still in the secret room?
If we just catch that guy, there won't be so much trouble.
Yunbei, who could clearly see Xiang Yuan's movements in the space, felt somewhat relieved. Fortunately, she had gotten out in time, otherwise, if she had been trapped in the secret room, it would have been troublesome.
Unfortunately, she did not take the treasure inside.
Xiang Yuan decided to go to the secret room and said to her men, "I'll stay in the room for a while. Don't come in unless it's necessary."
"Okay, Sister Xiang!" The subordinates nodded, then opened their eyes wide and looked around, afraid of missing anything.
After giving instructions to her subordinates, Xiang Yuan entered the room, quietly opened the mechanism, and headed towards the secret room.
Before going in, she grabbed a gun.
Although she knows a few tricks, having a gun gives her a sense of security.
Yunbei watched Xiang Yuan enter the secret room, quietly come out of the space, and then change places.
Although Xiang Yuan couldn't find her in the space, she didn't like staying in other people's rooms all the time, as it would make her uncomfortable.
The place she moved to was a guest room. No one usually lived there. There weren't many things in the room, so it was relatively comfortable.
Xiang Yuan carefully entered the secret room, but didn't find anyone inside. However, when she looked towards the place where the account book was placed, her face turned pale instantly.
The thing was gone, and the box with it.
Now, she no longer had any hope, as the things had definitely fallen into the hands of thieves.
Therefore, she did not stay in the secret room for long. After hurriedly coming out, she immediately decided to find her father and tell him what happened.
Before leaving, she was still unwilling to give up and searched the entire house again. After confirming that the person was no longer at home, she left with her men.
Yunbei hadn't expected Xiang Yuan to leave so quickly, and she was overjoyed. After the gate was locked from the outside, she emerged from the space and returned the same way.
In order to prevent accidents, Yunbei deliberately took a detour before returning to the guesthouse.
As soon as she entered the guesthouse, the waiter called her and said, "Comrade Yun, someone will come to see you this afternoon."
Just as Yunbei was about to ask who was looking for her, the waiter quickly replied, "The other party didn't leave any contact information, but he doesn't look like someone you'd be hard to mess with."
"Okay, I got it. Thank you." Yunbei thanked the waiter and turned back to his room.
Xiang Yuan's men had been guarding outside the guesthouse. When they saw Yun Bei coming back, they followed him into the guesthouse and asked the waiter, "Did the person living in Room 302 just come back?"
The waiter glanced at the man, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, she just came back."
"Can I borrow your phone?" The man said as he picked up the phone on the service desk and called Xiang Yuan.
However, Xiang Yuan was not at home at this time. She had already taken her people to where her father worked.
However, halfway through the journey, she felt something was wrong, so she changed direction and headed towards her parents' home.
She told her mother the same thing, and her mother told her father the same thing.
Xiang's mother was surprised to see her daughter come back at this time and asked, "Yuanyuan, why are you back at this time? Didn't you go to work today?"
"Mom, I'm taking a day off today." Xiang Yuan said as she walked into the house.
As soon as she entered the house, she didn't have time to settle down and couldn't wait to say to her mother: "Mom, something bad has happened?"
"What happened?" Xiang Yuan panicked after hearing what her daughter said.
"Mom, a thief broke into my house and some important things were lost." Xiang Yuan did not hide it and told her mother what happened in her family.
"What? Which thief is so bold as to run into your house?" Xiang's mother was shocked. Her daughter lived in a place that was provided by the government. Although it was not as big as the compound she lived in, most people would not dare to go there.
"I don't know yet. I came back to tell you so that my dad can be mentally prepared and take precautions in advance."
"Okay, I understand." Xiang's mother nodded seriously, then said to her daughter, "Yuanyuan, since there's a thief in our house, do you want to call the police?"
"Mom, the things lost at home are things that cannot be seen in public. Calling the police is useless and will only bring us trouble."
"Is that so? So that's it?"
"Mom, don't worry, I will ask someone to investigate. I will definitely not let that thief go." Xiang Yuan said hatefully.
He actually dared to steal into her house, and stole such an important thing. She would definitely not let it go like this.
She would definitely find that person and make him pay the price.
