"Tsk, you're right, then forget it." Xu Zhaohao shook his head immediately at the thought of himself wearing this outfit and carrying a book, not daring to think about it.
Now that everyone had made their choices, they happily headed back. Even Xiao Nan stopped being sarcastic towards Yue Lanxing. However, as she got off the bus, she suddenly remembered something, and her expression immediately turned strange.
Xu Zhaoyue saw her change of expression and her feigned indifference, so she didn't ask her immediately, thinking she would ask her after going inside. Unexpectedly, a big surprise appeared in front of her.
"Miss, something terrible has happened! Your clothes have been cut!" Xiao Nan ran out with several pieces of fabric. Her words immediately put everyone on edge. While the young lady was out, someone had sneaked into her room and even cut up the clothes she was going to wear to the party.
No one expected that it would be so close to the last time that everyone was called to a meeting. Last time, it was to announce that Butler Yue was taking over. This time, it is estimated that he will be stepping down. Such problems have occurred under his management, and he cannot escape responsibility.
Yue Lanxing naturally understood this principle, but he felt guilty because the young lady's clothes had been cut. Just now, the young lady had said that Xiao Nan had prepared clothes for her, which showed that she was satisfied with those clothes.
Xu Zhaoyue looked at the two rows of people in front of her who had their heads down and dared not look at her. Then she saw two more people with ugly expressions. Now she knew why Xiao Nan's expression had suddenly changed. She could even guess why Xiao Nan did what she did.
Xiao Nan noticed that the young lady's gaze was on her, so she glanced at her cautiously and then quickly lowered her head. This was the first time she had done something like this, and she couldn't remain calm and composed.
Seeing her frightened expression, Xu Zhaoyue couldn't bear to look at her. Anyone could see that she was up to something. So, in order not to put too much pressure on her, Xu Zhaoyue looked at Yue Lanxing again.
Yue Lanxing's expression didn't seem panicked or frightened; she seemed more composed than Xiao Nan. "Young Miss, leave this matter to me. Once we find out who it is, I'll let you deal with me as you see fit." Yue Lanxing was now regretting not having dealt with that person sooner.
But he couldn't have done it alone; there must be other people behind it. Xiao Nan might be involved too. He wondered what the young lady's attitude was towards Xiao Nan's mistake. Yue Lanxing felt his mind was in turmoil. He could analyze who was at fault, but the deed was done, and it was inevitable that the young lady would be heartbroken.
Yue Lanxing was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't notice the young lady looking at him. However, Xu Zhaoyue didn't let him dwell on it for long. "Butler Yue!" Her gentle voice pulled Yue Lanxing back to reality. Judging from her voice, the young lady wasn't angry.
"Yes, Miss. I'm here." Yue Lanxing snapped back to reality. "I will definitely find out the truth and give Miss an explanation."
"Alright, I believe you. I need the results within two days. Also, I don't want to hear about this from anyone else in the mansion." Xu Zhaoyue finished speaking and left. Xiao Nan quickly followed her to the backyard. "Miss, those clothes aren't actually..."
Xiao Nan wanted to explain, but Xu Zhaoyue shook her head at her, "What's done is done. The clothes are gone, so be it. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking, Doubao?"
Xu Zhaoyue picked up Doubao from beside her feet and gently stroked its fur. "By the way, we can't keep people who can't keep their mouths shut. Let's deal with them as soon as possible." Xu Zhaoyue looked at the villa behind her, her eyes full of sharpness.
Seeing that her mistress knew her plans, Xiao Nan finally felt relieved. "Yes, Miss, don't worry. This time we'll definitely catch them all in one fell swoop. But what if we run out of manpower?"
"Promote a few from the remaining people, and then select from the servants in the mansion." Xu Zhaoyue sat on the swing. Yue Lanxing's questions wouldn't end anytime soon, so she could go outside and get some fresh air.
Half an hour later, a maid came and called Xiao Nan over, and that's how Xiao Nan and Yue Lanxing met in the room.
"You're making quite a show of talking to everyone one by one," Xiao Nan said, looking at the servants scattered around outside, as well as Tian Dai and Xue Huzi who were patrolling. They were so frightened that they didn't dare to look up.
"No, why did you make Xuanxuan stand as punishment too? She has nothing to do, she just stays in the storeroom reading all day." To make herself seem less nervous, Xiaonan looked outside and immediately saw Yue Xuanxuan.
Yue Lanxing shook his head, his expression serious. Although Xiao Nan was no longer flustered, she still became nervous.
“She was in the villa when it happened. Do you think I would give her special treatment? Fine, close the door. Even if it takes an hour, we still need to talk this out.”
"Okay, okay, I'll cooperate." Xiao Nan closed the door, sat down opposite Yue Lanxing, and asked, "Are you sure they won't hear us?"
"You can speak normally. Aren't the soundproofing in these rooms quite good?" Yue Lanxing picked up a pen. "Tell me, which of the people you've been in contact with these past few days were actually cooperating with you, or were they originally planning to cause trouble?"
Xiao Nan's eyes widened in disbelief at his words. "You...you know?" Then she denied it herself. "That's impossible. I only contact people when you're not around."
"They admitted it so quickly! They're really despicable, just as despicable as ever." Xiao Nan already felt that she had been betrayed. Luckily, she was just acting, otherwise she would have been tricked.
Seeing Xiao Nan's performance, Yue Lanxing knew that her guess was correct. "They only said a few vague things, without explicitly saying it was you. But they can only watch the show if the two of us start fighting!"
