Su Jinyue was standing aside and could already tell that this group of people had ill intentions.

She turned slightly and whispered to Meng Ning, "Be careful, they might take action."

Meng Ning nodded, put his hands on his waist, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.

Mu Ze looked at the group of people in front of him expressionlessly and said calmly, "See you off."

Following his signal, several men in black immediately walked out from the darkness, each of them with extraordinary skills.

Seeing this, the burly man snorted coldly, as if he was unwilling to give up easily, "Owner, we just want to make friends, it seems that you don't have this intention!"

Su Jinyue was calm and composed, smiling slightly, "Of course the host didn't mean that. Don't you guys understand what sending a lesson means?"

"I'm telling you to get out of here!"

"you!"

My man was trapped by the black-clad men in the dark of the building. He gritted his teeth and glared at Su Jinyue, "Just wait for me!"

The men in black approached quickly. The burly man in the lead was obviously unwilling to give up. He glared at Su Jinyue fiercely, but he could do nothing and had to retreat with his men.

For a moment, silence returned to the room.

Meng Ning frowned. "These people come with bad intentions. It seems that they want to do more than just simple business."

"Of course," Su Jinyue said, "I'm just afraid that this business of theirs will give Xiaoyao Tower a reputation of treason."

Mu Ze looked at Su Jinyue, "So you should understand why I want to close Xiaoyao Tower."

At this time, the old man hurried upstairs again, "Master, there are a lot of people watching outside the building."

"Watching?" Meng Ning retreated to the indoor window, slightly opened a window, and saw the crowd below.

The old man looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid that when those people came in just now, they made quite a commotion and attracted quite a few people from Liang City."

"Originally the owner said Xiaoyao Tower would not be open today. They saw someone breaking into the building and wanted to find out what happened."

Mu Ze nodded, "Let them go, don't make things more complicated."

"Yes." The old man took the order and left.

There were whispering sounds coming from outside, and these people were discussing in low voices what had just happened.

"Didn't they say Xiaoyao Tower won't accept any business today? I just saw a group of people coming out of the building."

"You believe this nonsense? I think there's trouble coming!"

"Shh, keep your voice down! If we displease the host, we won't be able to stay in Liang City anymore."

"I'm curious about what happened to those people who broke in and out..."

As he said this, the old man from Xiaoyao Tower appeared at the door, and was about to push the door shut with his wrinkled hands.

Someone brave enough asked outside, "Uncle Gu, does the host need help? I just saw someone break in!"

There was no smile on Gu Bo's wrinkled face, and his cloudy eyes stared at the people outside.

"The owner of the building said that he will not do business today. Don't let them all leave. You don't have to wait here!"

Bang!

After saying that, Uncle Gu slammed the door.

"Hey, you're really rude. I guess those people who broke in didn't get any benefits."

"Let's go, let's go, there's nothing to see here."

After everyone left, Gu Bo invited Su Jinyue and Meng Ning down and asked them to leave through the back door.

Uncle Gu said to Su Jinyue, "Miss Su, our master said that if you have anything to ask during the days when Xiaoyao Tower is closed, you can go here to meet him."

As he spoke, he handed the note in his hand to Su Jinyue.

Su Jinyue took the note and opened it, "Dingchunlou, is this a restaurant in the capital?"

Uncle Gu nodded, "As long as Dingchunlou has the dish Yu Fengsu, the master will see you in Tianzi Room No. 1."

Saying that he won't see her and won't help her isn't that unkind.

Su Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Thank you, Uncle Gu, then the two of us will leave first."

Although she failed to find out Xiao Duo's whereabouts today, Su Jinyue felt inexplicably relieved.

Even in Xiaoyao Tower there was no news of Xiao Duo, which meant that they really had hidden themselves.

With Qin Qiong by his side, perhaps they had hidden in the mountains. Qin Qiong was most familiar with the terrain in the mountains, so it was normal that others could not find them.

There is indeed a deep mountain in the western suburbs, maybe they are really okay.

"Ms. Su?"

Su Jinyue finally came back to her senses and heard Meng Ning calling her, "What's wrong?"

"I will take you back to the Marquis' Mansion first."

Su Jinyue opened her mouth and originally wanted to tell Meng Ning that Xiao Duo and the others might be in the mountains in the western suburbs, but she held back.

If they are truly safe now but have not shown up, there must be a reason. She needs to think carefully before making any plans.

"Well, let's go."

After returning to Wangyuexuan, Xiaotao, who had been guarding the room, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss, you frequently come in and out of the mansion at midnight. If other people knew about it, they would gossip about it."

Su Jinyue no longer cared about what others said. She closed her eyes and said, "I'm tired."

"Then I will fetch some water for you to wash up. You can go to bed early."

"Um."

Su Jinyue was indeed very tired these days. After washing up, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

When she woke up again, Xiaotao's hurried voice sounded in her ears.

"Miss! Miss, wake up!"

Su Jinyue opened her eyes lazily, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Yuehua...Yuehua in Madam's room, hanged in the woodshed!"

Hearing this, Su Jinyue instantly woke up, sat up and put on her outer clothes, "How did they watch him? He was fine, how could he be hanged?"

Xiao Tao cried, "After she was beaten with the stick, she was locked in the woodshed. Madam sent a few people to watch over her."

"Before this time at night, we sent people to check on her and she was fine. But this morning, when the servants went in to deliver food, they saw that she had hanged herself with a belt on the beam of the woodshed!"

Xiao Tao trembled all over after she finished speaking. "I heard that she changed the plea, saying that she secretly embezzled all the money in the shop. Because she couldn't pay the money back now, she was afraid that the lady would blame her, so she couldn't bear it last night, so she... hanged herself!"

Others may not understand, but Su Jinyue knows it very well.

In her previous life, Yuehua would never have dared to touch Jiang Caiping's things if Su Zhiyao hadn't hinted at her.

She gave most of her money to Su Zhiyao, so her death must be related to Su Zhiyao!

Su Zhiyao probably wanted a dead person to bear all the money for her. Su Jinyue sneered, thinking that she was thinking too simply.

Su Jinyue narrowed her eyes. Since Yuehua could become a first-class maid beside Jiang Caiping, it also showed that she had some abilities.

In her previous life, she had evidence that Su Zhiyao embezzled the store's cash. I wonder if she will be smarter in this life?

Su Jinyue said to Xiaotao, "Help me wash up, and we'll go to the woodshed later."

"Miss!" Xiao Tao said, "It's better not to do that. Yuehua's death was horrifying, and I'm afraid it would scare you, Miss!"

Su Jinyue's brows relaxed. "If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. The person you should be afraid of is not me."

When the master and servant rushed to the woodshed, Yuehua's body was still hanging on the beam of the woodshed.

The door was wide open and no one dared to step forward to untie the body.

Su Jinyue looked around and saw that everyone around her was a servant. She asked the person next to her, "Why don't you go and invite mother over?"
