"By the way, have you included the expenses of your frequent outings to dine and have fun with the young masters and ladies in your account book?"
"Have you accounted for the expense of remodeling your shop?"
"And the other day you went to play polo. Wasn't the money you spent paid from the Qin family's public treasury? Didn't you have some from your own private treasury?"
"I..." Qin Yinnuan's expression suddenly tightened.
"I remember that there are quite a few large expenses in this account book. How come there is no record of them?"
“When I gave you the account book, I spent a whole day with you counting everything in the treasury.
Now, the money is missing, and Young Master Qin is blaming me for this. You should give me and Young Master Qin an explanation of what is going on. ”
Qin Yin's hair was weak and her nails dug into her palms, and she managed to calm herself down. "How can I know? When you gave me the account book, I trusted you very much, so I didn't look at it carefully. This is indeed my problem, and I should be responsible."
"As for my expenses, I have definitely kept a record of them. You don't need to question it..."
"Oh, I just looked at the account book. You recorded the account but I didn't see it. Why don't you turn it over and let me see how you recorded it..."
...
...
Qin Wu handed Qin Yinnuan the account book that recorded her expenses for the past six months, "Tell me where the missing money went. Don't let Mr. Qin slander me and say that I stole the Qin family's money."
"Frame me for the crime of Qin's money disappearing..."
"Puff." Qin Yinnuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed on Qin Wu's white fox fur cloak.
"Xiao Nuan." Qin Sujin's pupils suddenly shrank and he quickly stepped forward and pushed Qin Wu away, grabbing Qin Yinnuan's shoulders, "What's wrong with you?"
Qin Wu was a beat slow to react, and was pushed hard by Qin Sujin, causing her to stagger and fall backwards.
"Be careful." A hand was around Qin Wu's waist, and half of her body was supported by the man's shoulder behind her.
The person who supported her from behind was Zhou Canglan.
Her hand was held by another hand with distinct joints and Buddhist beads.
The other party obviously wanted to pull her back, but the third prince got there first.
The next second, Qin Wu's hand was pulled hard, her body leaned forward slightly, and she broke away from Zhou Canglan's arms.
As soon as Qin Wu stood firm, the Imperial Master's cold voice sounded, "Are you okay?"
Looking at the Third Prince and then at the Imperial Preceptor, Qin Wu said to them, "Thank you Imperial Preceptor and the Third Prince. I'm fine."
"Qin Wu, what did you do to Xiao Nuan? How dare you hurt her like this!" Qin Sujin yelled at Qin Wu with anger boiling in his eyes.
It's still the same. She didn't even touch her, so why did he assume that she was the one who hurt Qin Yinnuan?
Such partiality must have blinded one's eyes.
"I didn't do anything. Everyone is watching. First you accused me of stealing the Qin family's money, and now you're accusing me of hurting her. What do you mean, Mr. Qin?"
"You didn't do anything to her, why would she vomit blood?" Qin Sujin only believed what he saw. If Qin Wu hadn't been aggressive, Xiao Nuan wouldn't have vomited blood.
Qin Sumu said to Qin Sujin, "Brother, don't get excited yet."
"Xiao Nuan, are you hurt?" Qin Sumu asked Qin Yinnuan.
Of course she couldn't tell them, so she bit her tongue and pretended to be injured, hoping to avoid Qin Wu's questioning.
She said weakly with a painful look on her face, "No, it has nothing to do with Qin Wu. It's my old injury that's flaring up..."
As she spoke, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Qin Sujin and others all knew that Qin Yinnuan returned to the Qin family covered in wounds.
It took a month of using various precious medicinal herbs and supplements to restore my body to health.
The doctor said there was nothing wrong with her body, so how could she still have internal injuries?
Qin Sujin picked her up and glared at Qin Wu, "It's you who pushed her and made her anxious, causing her to vomit blood!"
"No matter how you put the accusation on me, I won't admit it." Qin Wu was indifferent.
Qin Sujin was so angry that his heart ached. "Let's just leave it at that. Qin Wu, you take care of yourself!"
As he said this he was about to leave.
Qin Wu stopped him and said, "Master Qin, there was no mistake when I was in charge of the Qin family's treasury. Qin Yinnuan made a mistake in the account. You should ask her carefully. I will not be responsible after the handover."
"Also, we have found out that it was me who subsidized your Qin family with so much money. You also said that all the money I subsidized would be returned to me. In this case, you should just sign this IOU."
Qin Wu handed him the IOU she had already written after settling the bill.
Now not only Qin Yinnuan was vomiting blood, but Qin Sujin was about to vomit blood as well.
He stared at the IOU in Qin Wu's hand with anger.
"I'm going to take Xiao Nuan to see a doctor. We'll talk again in two days."
Qin Wu stopped him, "I don't believe what Master Qin said. It's just a signature. Does Master Qin want to go back on his word?"
She glanced at Qin Sujin with disdain, "Young Master Qin, aren't you afraid of bringing disgrace to the Qin family?"
Qin Sujin could feel the contemptuous looks from everyone present.
"Qin Wu, you..." Qin Sujin gritted his teeth, his heart rate was about to go out of control due to anger.
He had never been so humiliated before and was forced into such an awkward situation. He really wanted to kill Qin Wu on the spot!
"Master Qin, as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, you should know the word integrity better than anyone else, right?" Zhou Canglan's handsome face was smiling unnaturally. He looked lazy, but his aura of wealth and power was fully displayed.
"This is dishonest. How can my father dare to give you the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"
Qin Sujin heard the threat from Zhou Canglan.
Zhou Canglan's mother's family is ordinary, and he is not favored by the emperor, but he is a prince.
Even saying a few words in front of the emperor would be enough to make him feel uncomfortable.
The Imperial Master didn't say anything, but the intimidating look in his eyes made people feel uneasy from the bottom of their hearts.
If the Third Prince did not sign the IOU, he would get himself into trouble and he was also afraid that the Imperial Master would say something in front of the Emperor.
The third prince was not afraid, but the imperial teacher was not.
He took the pen that Qiufen handed over and signed his name.
Throwing down the pen, Qin Sujin immediately got into the carriage and left with the unconscious Qin Yinnuan in his arms.
The servant immediately collected all the account books and took them back to the mansion.
Qin Sumu stared at Qin Wu for a long time, and he almost didn't recognize Qin Wu in front of him.
It is obvious that Qin Wu was not like this before. She did not dare to disobey her elder brother, or even embarrass him. It was impossible for her to ignore the Qin family's reputation and be so aggressive towards them.
Although she targeted Xiao Nuan and always framed her, she still respected them in front of them.
Qin Wu was willing to do so and would come back to ask them for help when she had no other choice, but who would have thought that Qin Wu would have to go back.
She can support herself, she doesn't need the Qin family or them at all.
After he was really sure that Qin Wu would never return to the Qin family and had truly made up his mind to sever ties with him, Qin Sumu felt a bitter and invisible anger rising in his heart.
He really couldn't understand why, just because they protected Xiao Nuan a little, she would be so heartless and ignore the relationship of more than ten years between them?
She is really cruel!
Taking a deep breath, Qin Sumu's face, which had always been gentle and warm to her, turned cold. "Qin Wu, stop targeting the Qin family. Today's matter is completely over."
