However, Luo Jinxiu knew a little about the connection between A Jing and Chu Wei. She suddenly understood why Qin Yiheng would push the blame onto Chu Wei, because it made sense from this point of view.
But this also indirectly proves one thing: Qin Yiheng knew about the connection between A Jing and Chu Wei—but how did he find out? Could it be that he has some extraordinary ability to reach the heavens?
Everyone had underestimated Qin Yiheng, and Luo Jinxiu was no exception.
Seeing that Luo Jinxiu did not react, the butler continued, "But I really didn't expect that, over time, A-Jing actually made some contacts and deals with Chu Wei in private, and even took the Luo family's gun to cause trouble."
As he spoke, he sighed with deep remorse, "By the time I discovered it, it was too late. I rushed over with my men and brought back these..."
He also pointed to the corpse.
"Then you are guilty of lax governance?" Luo Jinxiu asked coldly, suddenly slamming her hand on the table.
Without giving the butler a chance to explain, Luo Jinxiu bombarded him with a series of questions.
"Do you know that the Han family has recognized the Luo family's gun? This matter is now connected to the Luo family. Although it's like an ant trying to shake a tree if the Han family wants to deal with the Luo family, have you forgotten what our real purpose is? These families in Yuzhou have their own ways of attacking, scheming, and fighting among themselves. Do you expect the Luo family to lower itself to argue with the Han family about the cause of someone's death?"
She exuded the aura of a young lady, her presence commanding attention, and the sheer oppressive aura made it impossible for anyone to remain in the living room.
However, this butler was indeed no ordinary person. Apart from some cold sweat on his forehead, his eyes remained firm.
"It is indeed my fault for not being strict in managing the area. We were supposed to be here to assist the young lady, but we have indeed caused her trouble. I will handle this matter properly."
The butler admitted his mistake effortlessly and even came up with a solution.
Although she already had a guess in her heart, Luo Jinxiu still pretended to be interested and asked, "Oh? Then tell me, how would you handle this?"
“This…” the butler hesitated.
Such hesitation only made Luo Jinxiu angrier.
"You lied to me?" Luo Jinxiu's eyes were filled with anger.
"I wouldn't dare..." the butler said softly.
Luo Jinxiu ignored him. She seemed furious, her chest heaving violently. She had given the butler time, but a minute passed and he still hadn't offered an explanation.
This guy is really tough!
If he stays in Yuzhou, his cooperation with Qin Yiheng will definitely be hindered, which won't be a good thing. It's better to take this opportunity...
"Good! Good! Good!"
Luo Jinxiu was furious, and her voice became intense and irresistible.
"Since you, the steward, disregard me so much and don't even answer my questions, I don't think you're a qualified steward. At the very least, I don't trust you in assisting me. I'll call the head of the family you mentioned right now and see if he'll listen to my advice, transfer you back, and send someone else over."
As she spoke, Luo Jinxiu actually took out her phone and dialed a number, appearing completely genuine.
"Miss..." the butler called out in a slightly anxious voice, but he did not explain or beg for mercy.
He is not afraid.
This is something Luo Jinxiu can confirm.
But why wasn't he afraid?
Luo Jinxiu glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, and what she saw shocked her. If she wasn't mistaken, the butler's expression clearly said—it's no use even if you make a phone call.
Normally, if he were transferred back, he would be accused of poor cooperation. If he were placed in the Luo family, he would be kicked out of the house at best, and enslaved for life at worst—the kind of slave that is truly enslaved.
Because of this system of rewards and punishments, everyone tries their best to do their job well in order to get the reward. Who would want to be punished?
Based on the butler's appearance, Luo Jinxiu had a bold guess in her mind.
Could it be that his father sent him not just to help him, but also to keep an eye on him?
That's why he dared to do all sorts of things, deceiving his superiors and acting on his own initiative...
Previously, Luo Jinxiu had suspected that there might be some grudge between the Luo family and Qin Yiheng, and now she is almost certain of this.
So, if I actually make that call, I'll lose face in front of the housekeeper...
“Young Miss, please calm down. It’s best not to let the head of the family know about this. The head of the family is busy with many things every day, how can he be troubled by this? Besides, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I’m afraid you’ll think that I’ve caused trouble and that you’ll have to go through the trouble of making amends, and that it will involve other things… which will only make you angrier.”
Fortunately, the housekeeper finally spoke up in time and stopped Luo Jinxiu.
However, Luo Jinxiu did not think that he was afraid. Instead, she was giving herself a way out so that if something happened later and she became suspicious, he would be in a difficult position.
But the housekeeper was unaware that his suspicions were about to be confirmed.
Luo Jinxiu, of course, wouldn't say anything, and simply walked down the steps.
"What are you saying?" she questioned, still very dissatisfied, with a threatening look that said, "If you don't explain clearly, I'll tell the head of the family."
"I was thinking, since A-Jing and Chu Wei are indeed colluding, even if the Han family wants to find someone, they will eventually end up going to the Chu family. If they become enemies because of this... and we happen to be in Yuzhou, why not have a double celebration?"
The housekeeper really has some wild ideas.
This double joy is, firstly, for Qin Yiheng, and secondly, for making it easier for the Luo family to annex the power in Yuzhou.
If the five major families were to suddenly become only three, the upheaval would be enormous, and no one would miss such a good opportunity.
etc……
Could the things the butler is proposing now be his real purpose for coming to Yuzhou? If information about Qin Yiheng can be fabricated, then why can't their purposes be different?
The deeper Luo Jinxiu thought about it, the more alarmed she became. The person she suspected was none other than her own father!
Why did my father do this?
Qin Yiheng is a very capable person. If we discover his abilities, the best approach is naturally to cooperate with him, win him over, and find a way to bring him to the Luo family.
These fathers couldn't have been unaware of this, but he still sent a butler, and then...
Luo Jinxiu felt it was necessary to investigate, but she couldn't make any big moves, otherwise it would definitely have an impact if her father or the housekeeper found out.
The best solution would be to let Qin Yiheng investigate, but since it concerns Qin Yiheng himself, even if he finds out something, would he tell me the truth?
