Chapter 32 Is there a traitor?
When the door was opened, there was a strong smell of incense inside. Fang Bo came here to worship every day, and the incense was always burning.
Ye Lin placed the photo of the family of three between the couple.
He couldn't set up a memorial tablet for the young master, so he could only use a photo instead. He lit a stick of incense for the three of them, wiped the tablet, and said to Ye Errong, "Once I finish taking care of the company's affairs, I will prepare to leave for the mainland. Don't worry."
His trachea couldn't stand the smell here and he couldn't stay for long. After placing the tablet, he bowed to the photo and turned to leave.
Kowloon Walled City
In the end, Ji's mother couldn't bear to ignore her son. After being angry for a few days, she resigned herself to her fate and went to find a lawyer for him.
But she had no money and couldn't find a good lawyer, so she ended up having to hire a lawyer appointed by the court.
The lawyer tried his best, but the evidence of Ji Yuanping's crime was conclusive and there was no way to wash his hands of it. Whoever came to defend him would have to go to jail.
Her son was sentenced to jail, and she sat at the door of the court in regret. It was all her fault for being greedy. If she had stopped her son from deceiving Ye Lin, wouldn't he be in this situation today? Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.
In the second half of her life, everything returned to the starting point. She could only continue to sell vegetables on the street to supplement her family income. The days in Causeway Bay were ultimately a dream.
Today's dinner was very sumptuous. David no longer dared to touch the lion's head. In order not to be outdone by Aunt Liu, he made seven or eight desserts.
Cheese soufflé, Napoleon, strawberry crepe, and syrup trifle pudding, just looking at them whets the appetite of a sweet lover like Ye Lin. He has to eat a few more bites while Aunt Rebecca is away.
Picking up a strawberry crepe with chopsticks, thinking of his aunt in Italy, Ye Lin asked Fang Bo, "Fang Bo, Zia doesn't know about the family situation yet, right?"
He just remembered that he forgot to ask Fangbo to keep it secret.
Fang Bo was secretly removing a plate of strawberry Swiss roll when he was suddenly called by the young master and almost dropped the plate.
"Well, I don't know. How can I tell my wife without the master's permission?"
"That's good. I'll tell her when Zia comes back, so she won't worry over there." With a gulp, a caramel pudding went into Ye Lin's bloody mouth.
Fang Bo spoke seriously, but he quickly hid the strawberry Swiss roll back into the dining cart and brought out a bowl of snow-white pork rib soup and placed it in front of Ye Lin.
"Master, eat less of these snacks. There's so much sugar in them. Drink some soup to replenish your body."
Fang Bo then brought out peach gum bird's nest, chicken minced abalone, braised shark's fin, soft-shelled turtle and Sichuan Fritillaria soup from the dining cart, as well as some dishes he didn't recognize, filling the table.
Ye Lin looked at the table full of food and felt a little worried. Why couldn't he eat desserts as meals? The desserts were obviously so delicious.
"It seems like there's a dessert missing? Am I remembering it wrong?"
Ye Lin was counting the plates in the air with a fork in his hand. He remembered that there were two strawberry desserts on the table just now, so how come one was missing?
Fang Bo covered the stolen strawberry Swiss roll with a napkin, feeling guilty, and tried to change the subject. "No, Master, I remember David made a strawberry crepe. Would you like some lion's head? Aunt Liu was making it just now. I'll bring it to you right away."
The governor walked quickly and pulled David away who wanted to speak.
This foreign chef can't make something nutritious. He just makes pastries every day. The young master doesn't even eat properly.
Aunt Liu’s lion head meatball is still as delicious as ever. It’s not satisfying at all to finish a meatball in a few bites.
The food was delicious, but the sight behind me was too strong.
"Ah Hui, stop looking and sit down and eat."
Without looking back, Ye Lin knew that it must be Ah Hui, the big eater, who was drooling.
Ah Hui swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said firmly, "That won't work. I'll eat after the young master finishes."
After persuading Ah Hui for a few times and seeing that he really didn't want to sit, Ye Lin stopped persuading him. It was a good thing to have some boundaries between master and servant, otherwise if he sat today and didn't sit tomorrow, the house would be in chaos.
The servants have their own meals. Ye Lin and Rebecca definitely cannot finish so many dishes every time. They use public chopsticks to pick up the food, so there is no need to worry about hygiene. Every time they finish eating and leave, the bodyguards can almost always clean up.
Ye Lin specially left a few more meatballs for Ah Hui. He had a rare moment of leisure, so after the meal he planned to go back to his room to watch TV. He rubbed his stomach and took the elevator upstairs because he was too lazy to climb the stairs.
In 1978, Hong Kong had already been using color TVs. Although the screens were not as big as those in later generations, they were still barely watchable.
When changing channels, he saw a food program. Ye Lin thought about the desserts on the table. What a waste. After he ate five or six pieces, Fang Bo refused to let him eat any more. Now they were probably eaten by Xiaoxing and Xiaoyue.
Ye Lin was supporting his chin and changing channels out of boredom.
The dining table, the lion head, the seal, the events of the past few days flashed through my mind like a kaleidoscope.
Ye Lin sat up straight, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his hands.
Something is wrong!
Seal! In his memory, the young master never told Ji Yuanping about the seal!
Among the servants in the house, only Fang Bo and Ah Hui, who took care of him personally, knew about the seal. No one else knew about it, and it was even less likely that Ah Mei knew!
So how did these two people know about the seal? Who told them?
There is a ghost beside him!
Ye Lin could no longer hear the noisy sound of the TV. His brain was working rapidly. Who could it be?
There are not many people who know about the seal, but not few either. Fang Bo, Ah Hui, Rebecca, Vivian, some people from the Italian Fairburn family, and the heads of major banks. Who could it be?
He quickly walked behind the screen and made a phone call, wanting Fang Bo, Ah Hui, and Vivian to come up.
"Master, what's wrong?" It was the maid Xiaoyue who answered the phone. Xiaoyue was holding a piece of Napoleon in her hand and hadn't swallowed the dessert in her mouth yet. She thought to herself, didn't the master just go upstairs? Did he want her to steal a few pieces of dessert?
Xiaoyue's chewing sound reignited Ye Lin's thoughts. No, he couldn't alert the enemy now. This ghost was different from Ameji Genpei. The opponent's level was too high. He couldn't move until he had a direction.
"It's okay, just save two desserts for me later." Ye Lin spoke as usual.
Xiaoyue thought the young master was really here looking for dessert, so she covered the microphone and whispered to Ye Lin, "Okay, young master, I'll bring it to you in half an hour."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Lin sat silently on the couch. He had previously placed a check for 2 billion US dollars in the living room, but no one at home had taken it these days. Either the ghost was not at home, or the 2 billion US dollars was not enough to fill the ghost's stomach.
Oh, every day is so wonderful.
This ghost hid too deeply. He did nothing but a piece of information and used Ji Yuanping and A Mei's two knives to kill the young master, and his hands were still clean.
As of now, with his death, the biggest beneficiary is undoubtedly the Fairburn family.
Rebecca can inherit his 25% stake in Fairburn, and with Rebecca's 30% stake, she can become the absolute ruler of Fairburn.
You can also swallow up the Ye family by the way.
But it couldn't be Aunt Rebecca. Ye Lin didn't believe she would be such a person. The time they had spent together these days was not fake. Rebecca really loved him.
If it wasn't Rebecca, then it would be other members of the Fairburn family, such as his dear uncle and ordinary cousin.
This also explains why even though Amei and Ji Yuanping were both in prison, the system progress was still stuck at 80%.
Because there are ghosts watching him in the dark.
It seems that Italy is very lively. They have even extended their hands to Hong Kong without worrying about cramps.
