Just as the afternoon tea party downstairs had to end because of Mrs. Kenxinton’s embarrassment and Zhan Jia ‘er’s crime of being a wanted criminal.
On the third floor of the manor, in Duan xiuhui’s private room, a tall figure was carefully searching for something.
It had been half an hour since he entered Duan xiuhui’s private room on the third floor. However, he had searched the bookshelves, the study table, and even the lounge inside, but he still could not find any clues.
Finally, his eyes fell on the shut laptop on the desk.
The man walked to the desk and turned on the laptop. After trying to enter a few sets of passwords, the screen turned on.
The cold light from the screen shone on the man’s face. It was a handsome and cold face. It was Zhan mo.
At this moment, Zhan mo sneaked into Duan xiuhui’s private room alone while she was entertaining the guests downstairs.
In the past, he had never done such a thing. He had never thought that there would be a day when he, Zhan mo, would need to sneak into his mother’s room to do such a thing.
But just now, when he saw ruan Mengmeng’s coldness and felt her disappointment towards him, there was a voice in his heart that kept telling Zhan mo that he could not let ruan Mengmeng continue to hate him. He could not let her continue to be disappointed in him.
Without thinking, Zhan mo sneaked into Duan xiuhui’s room to look for clues about ruan Mianmian’s imprisonment.
Zhan mo knew that his mother was a very careful person. If he touched her laptop, he would be discovered.
However, he had searched all the other places, but this place …
The man quickly flipped through the various emails on his computer. Just as he opened an email that Duan xiuhui had not received yet, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
“Brother, what are you doing here, Yingying?
Zhan Jia ‘er, who had been embarrassed downstairs, pushed the door open and found Zhan mo.
Duan xiuhui was still seeing the guests off downstairs. As Zhan Jia ‘er had just embarrassed herself, the guests downstairs were looking at her as if she was a wanted criminal.
Zhan Jia ‘er’s mental fortitude was not as strong as Duan xiuhui’s, so she ran up to her angrily.
Zhan mo didn’t expect that his sister would see through him. He glanced at the computer screen and the email that he had just opened was being read.
The document attached to the picture had the words ‘reimbursement’ written on it.
Zhan Mo’s brows furrowed, he guessed that this was the information he wanted.
Ignoring Zhan Jia ‘er, he lowered his eyes and waited for the pictures to completely pop up on the computer screen.
brother, what are you doing, ran ran, you ran ran, you’re secretly checking mom’s computer for ruan Mianmian’s news!? Zhan Jia ‘er walked over quickly with a frown. When she saw the picture on the computer screen, she understood everything in an instant.
No wonder her brother had disappeared from the afternoon tea party.
No wonder he didn’t appear. He wasn’t like in the past, protecting her in front of outsiders.
It turned out that everything had happened because of ruan Mengmeng. Her brother was no longer the brother he used to be. He had already forgotten that this afternoon tea party was organized by his mother to help her get back her shares.
The older brother urged him to place all his attention on ruan Mengmeng.
“This has nothing to do with you. Jia ‘er, Jian Jia, just pretend you didn’t see anything. Go out and close the door.”
Zhan mo did not want to drag Zhan Jia ‘er into this.
Even though Zhan Jia ‘er was becoming more and more unfamiliar to him, he Imew nothing about ruan Mianmian.
This matter was planned by his mother. Even if they were on opposing sides, it was the opposition between Zhan mo and his mother.
He had never thought that he would vent his anger on Zhan Jia ‘er because of this.
“Unrelated to me? How can it have nothing to do with me, brother Wanwan? don’t forget, you were the one who said you would extract ruan Mianmian’s bone marrow to extend my life!” Zhan Jia ‘er’s pale face was filled with unwillingness, and her eyes were filled with tears.
She didn’t understand. She really didn’t understand.
Since when did an insignificant dead child become so important to her brother who only loved her?!
