Ling'er looked around for sometime, she wanted to scout them out. After some time she asked was there a fire incident here recently?
It was obvious that they did not expect this question.
How did she know, we hid it so well
Sorry for being too observing, you are all Rooky for me at least in these
Luli : ah actually last night I spilled the lamp by accident so it did cause a fire but it wasn't that of a big deal so we did not inform master.
Ling'er went near yin and patted his shoulder slightly. Yin jumped suddenly and pushed ling away . he was sweating and as well as xiao yu. But luli more of looked angry. All thought because ling'er was interrogating her but to ling'er it looked more like she was angry with these two. But why?
Ling'er : master I know what happened.
Master : speak..
Ling'er : 5 years ago, sixth miss of shen family ordered a kg of skin moisturising cream. Yin was asked to deliver it to the shen mansion. If I am not wrong something went wrong and he owed the shop a huge sum of money. Am I right, yin..
Yin"... "
Let me continue then..
He hid this fact from everyone and then comes entry of this new person who suggests yin to bet on games. Yin thought this was the only way now so he put all his salary in the game but he did not manage to win anything and instead owned them more. Now his last resort was to steal from the shop, but it wasn't that easy since the account was strictly monitored by luli. During this time xiao yu's grandmother fell sick and lot of money was needed to treat her, yin used this against yu to persuade her to help with the account afcourse yu did not agree at first but later because she pitied yin and her urgent needs of money she started helping yin.[I am more interested on who instigated him? is it a simple business or some one targeting dabao]
Yin am I right..
Luli: you dare accuse without evidence
Xiao yu : you are no...not even afraid of punishment
Yin: master please don't doubt my loyalty..
Master: shut upp.. ling'er... You can continue..
Luli, yin, yu: "MASTER"
Ling'er : they eventually paid the shen family but unfortunately yin became more and more addicted to gambling. Luli and xiao yu were good friends, with luli's talent she did notice these changes in account and also yu's wieard behaviour but since she refused to talk luli kept quite. Until last year or so when 3 jewelry were missing she interrogated yu to find out she needed money for her grandmother's treatment but little did she know about yin's gamble debts. Luli sold the remaining jewellery in such a way that did not cost any profit or loss. I admire her for her devotion to her friend and her managing skills. But last night something happened. I am taking a guess the people who yin owed had sent gangsters to make a rucus at the hall, since it was night no one knew but luli happened to be there they bet up yin and set the curtains outside the gate on fire. This is when luli knew the whole story from them. She some how calmed them and send them back. She decided to tell everything honestly now but greed took her over and she promised xiao yu to not tell you anything although it's my hypothesis, this is most likely what happened according to the evidence..
Xiao yu : [kneels down with a bang] master I was muddled, master please forgive me. I deserve to be punished.. [ cries loudly] I really had no choice..
Yin : you [angryly]
Luli : master I was wrong [kneels] master xiao yu is innocent. She was just tricked by yin if not... He has such an innocent face that even I couldn't watch him get beaten up yesterday..
Yin : old boss Zhang they are all framing me.. I really have nothing to say
Luli : yin.. Just accept it sooner or later you will be found out
Yin : she doesn't have proof
Yu : yin.. She doesn't have proof but she still managed to get most of it right. It won't be difficult to prove it as long as she wants to. Just give up already.
Ling'er : master, you can check there is a faint smoke smell outside the gate it's the same smell as all of them have, they should have got it while trying to put it off and the injuries on yin that's why he pushed me when I touched him..
Yin : [huh. Devastated] [kneels] MA.. Ster [tears up]
Master: write up a complain and send them to the majistrate they will take care of them and send some money to xiao yu's grandparents and also fulfill the debts yin has. Luli can stay but others can't. Take them away I can't afford to look at them.
They don't object. two male servants take them away including luli. He slowly approaches ling'er and with a slight smile he says..
You have done a great job. I only met you some days ago but I have already become grateful to you to day Zhang yongnan will full fill any of your wish. I will return this favour to you for sure..
Ling'er : master don't say that. Ling is under you and is willing to help master..
[old boss Zhang.. Zhang yongnan is he the legendary business man's heir who is also the money tree of eighth Prince. From being a begger in an unknown city to reach the Palace under the feet of the emperor this is already a good start. At first I just thought of using him to settle myself first then learn the ways of rich people to find a break through but now that I am so close already, I need to make a good use of this person.]
[Change of plan..]
What will she do,
To be continued...
