Someone immediately chimed in, "Isn't this..."
Before he could finish speaking, Uncle Xiang interrupted him, "No, I've never seen this person before."
He was perhaps not very talkative, and his expression seemed slightly flustered.
Chen Yongnian remained silent, then ordered the portrait to be put away. He said, "Alright, if you see this person, report it to the authorities immediately. This person is a suspect in the Xinglong Restaurant case. Anyone who protects him will be punished!"
After saying that, he led his officers and soldiers outside.
The little monkey asked in a low voice, "Brother Yongnian, they clearly know each other, so why did they leave?"
Chen Yongnian reached out and patted the little monkey's head, saying, "Your Sister Qi said it's about luring the snake out of its hole. If we don't leave, how will he get back?"
The soldiers had only been gone a short while when Xiao Yi returned from outside, looking rather suspicious and smelling terrible.
When Uncle Xiang saw him return, he brought him into the house without saying a word and coldly scolded, "Xiao Yi, tell Uncle Xiang, have you done something wrong?"
Xiao Yi pursed her lips, turned her face away, and whispered, "No."
"Uncle Xiang has known you for so long, how could he not know if you're lying?" Uncle Xiang sighed and said, "Although we are poor, we must never do anything criminal. Is it worth risking your future like this?"
Xiao Yi gave a cold laugh and said, "But I've had enough of my current life. I don't want to beg anymore, and I don't want to be looked down upon anymore!"
“You have many ways to change, but you shouldn’t do it this way.”
As the voices fell silent, the tightly closed door was suddenly kicked open.
Xiao Yi and Chen Yongnian locked eyes.
He immediately recognized the person in front of him as one of the restaurant staff and hurriedly backed away.
However, when the door was kicked open, the soldiers had already surrounded the house, and he had nowhere to escape.
With just one glance, without even needing to smell the scent, he could tell that this person was the one who had drugged him.
"No, it wasn't me... I didn't do anything..." Xiao Yi overturned the cabinet in front of him and tried to run away, denying everything he had done.
He tried to escape through the window, but was immediately pinned to the ground by the soldiers and could no longer escape.
Uncle Xiang slapped his thigh and sighed, regretting that he hadn't kept a close eye on Xiao Yi.
Chen Yongnian glanced out the window, then looked at Uncle Xiang, and said in a deep voice, "Tolerating him will only harm him. If he submits to the law and confesses who is behind it, he can be given a lighter sentence."
