The club manager outside was stunned, never expecting things to turn out this way.
He glanced back at the bodyguard holding the body camera and asked cautiously.
"Is this really okay? It's probably not appropriate for Master Pei to just go in like this. Even if he filmed it, it wouldn't be legal! Why don't we notify Captain Luo and have him come over to check?"
The bodyguard chuckled and gestured to the club manager.
"It's alright, my Ninth Master has the necessary paperwork."
The club manager then followed Pei Fengzhi into the private room, only to see Pei Fengzhi suddenly turn around and coldly give him an order.
"go out!"
The manager raised one foot but before it could land, he swayed, then withdrew his foot and backed out of the private room. He only dared to stand at the door, peeking his head into the room.
Then they saw Pei Fengzhi slowly walk around the room, his gaze lingering on the ground.
The manager had no idea what Pei Fengzhi was looking for; he simply held his breath and watched him quietly.
After a while, Pei Fengzhi squatted down and focused his gaze on the coffee table.
He suddenly looked up and asked the manager.
"Besides the technical investigation personnel, has anyone else been at the scene?"
The manager gave a wry smile and said with a hint of helplessness.
“Ninth Master, look at what you’re saying. That Captain Luo has made a big show of sealing off the scene completely, not letting anyone get close at all. Besides you, who else could possibly get in here? That Captain Luo looks like he’s going to eat people alive. I don’t have the guts to do that.”
Pei Fengzhi listened patiently to the manager finish speaking, then lowered his head again to carefully examine some marks on the coffee table.
There were many traces of wine residue on the coffee table, layer upon layer, indicating that the bottles had been knocked over twice, once near the sofa and the other time towards the door.
Pei Fengzhi's gaze followed the coffee table all the way to the door.
He sprayed some reagent on the ground, then had someone bring over a machine to scan it. They saw a clear row of footprints on the ground, with the feet pointing towards the door, and the steps were somewhat disordered.
Pei Fengzhi frowned, his thoughts wandering elsewhere, but the scene that had occurred in the private room seemed to reappear before his eyes.
Everyone was either sitting or standing in the private room, while Ye Ningwan and Ye Ruoxin were arguing by the coffee table.
However, everyone seemed to be blind to Pei Fengzhi, their eyes fixed on Ye Ningwan and Ye Ruoxin, their faces filled with excited yet secretive smiles, seemingly full of anticipation.
The next second, Ye Ruoxin grabbed a small knife from the fruit plate on the coffee table with a ferocious expression. The fruit plate shook a few times and fell to the ground, scattering the fruit inside.
Ye Ruoxin crushed a strawberry, stepped on the alcohol-stained ground, and rushed towards Ye Ningwan.
Pei Fengzhi suddenly stood up.
Even knowing that this was just his own conjecture, Pei Fengzhi still couldn't control the bloodshot look in his eyes when he got to this point.
Just as the fruit knife was about to pierce Ye Ningwan's back, Ye Ningwan dodged to the side and grabbed Ye Ruoxin's wrist.
What followed was a series of brutal attacks from Ye Ningwan on Ye Ruoxin, so bad that no one dared to step forward to stop her, for fear that Ye Ningwan would also attack them.
Pei Fengzhi's lips curled into a faint smile, and then he suddenly placed his hand on the sofa and leaned down to look under the sofa.
Pei Fengzhi turned on his phone's flashlight and quickly found what he was looking for.
It was a fruit knife that someone had kicked under the sofa.
Without Pei Fengzhi even having to call him, his men immediately came in with plastic bags.
Pei Fengzhi put the fruit knife into a plastic bag, then stood up and left the club with the evidence he had found and his bodyguard.
The manager looked incredulous; could it be that Ye Ningwan was truly innocent?
He took a few steps forward and caught up with Pei Fengzhi, who was about to leave, but was stopped by the bodyguard.
"Ninth Master, if you just take the evidence away like this, I won't be able to explain it to Captain Luo!"
Pei Fengzhi went downstairs without looking back, not even glancing back once.
The manager tried to chase after him, but the bodyguard shoved him hard, causing him to stumble and crash into the wall. He swayed and had to lean on the wall to regain his balance.
The bodyguard's gaze was fierce as he coldly warned the manager.
"Say less what you shouldn't say, do less what you shouldn't do. Ninth Master knows everything. Don't think that he doesn't understand your little schemes. He's just too lazy to bother with you."
The manager's obese body trembled slightly.
Indeed, he wanted to please all three parties so that he wouldn't suffer any losses. Who knew that Pei Fengzhi was so insightful and had already seen through his intentions? Now he even sent his men to warn him.
The manager immediately rubbed his hands together and smiled politely at the bodyguard.
"Don't worry, this club is, after all, a property of the Pei family. Ninth Master is practically my half-owner, so of course I'm on Ninth Master's side!"
Seeing that he was fairly intelligent, the bodyguard gave him a warning glare and turned to leave.
...
At that moment, Pei Fengzhi was already sitting in the car. The driver looked at Pei Fengzhi staring at the evidence bag in his hand and asked in a low voice.
"Should we go directly to the provincial department now?"
Pei Fengzhi shook his head.
He roughly understood Ye Ningwan's meaning. Ye Ningwan wanted to let the Ye family make a big fuss until it became uncontrollable, and then she would turn the tables and make those who wanted to harm her lose out instead.
"Let's go back first..."
Before Pei Fengzhi could finish speaking, a little guy suddenly crashed into the car.
Ouch!
Little Star cried out.
The driver was startled and immediately stopped the car.
"What's wrong with this child! Where are the adults in the family? Why aren't they doing anything about him?!"
However, the next second, Pei Fengzhi's voice suddenly rang out.
"Shut up!"
Upon hearing Pei Fengzhi's sudden shout, the driver shuddered, shrank his shoulders, and immediately said to Pei Fengzhi.
"I'll go down and take a look."
Pei Fengzhi, however, said...
"Need not."
As he spoke, Pei Fengzhi opened the car door and got out, then quickly walked towards Xiao Xingxing, who was lying beside the car.
Pei Fengzhi squatted down and reached out his hand to Little Star.
"Little Star".
A shadow fell, enveloping the little star.
Little Star raised her head and looked in Pei Fengzhi's direction. When she met Pei Fengzhi's face, her watery eyes immediately sparkled with starlight. She excitedly rushed over and hugged Pei Fengzhi tightly.
"Handsome uncle!"
Before Pei Fengzhi could react, Xiao Xingxing had already jumped into his arms, causing Pei Fengzhi to freeze for a moment, his eyes filled with a daze.
The next second, he laughed and reached out to pat Little Star's head.
