Chapter 569: Chapter 570: Miss Xia is so familiar?
Finding the location of the safe within the room wasn’t difficult.
Liu Ruyan had placed her safe in the wardrobe of her dressing room.
Xia Yangyang had already remotely connected to Xiao Wu.
Within five minutes, Xiao Wu had remotely broken the safe’s password.
Nonetheless, Xia Yangyang was still a bit nervous.
She didn’t have much time.
She had slipped in while the nanny was changing the bed sheets.
The door to the room would be locked any minute now.
Xia Yangyang quickly glanced over the safe’s contents.
There were many pieces of jewelry and valuable trinkets inside.
There were also some contract documents and such.
However, Xia Yangyang couldn’t find the remittance slip for five million.
Xia Yangyang did not have time to think too much at this.
She swiftly rearranged things back the way they were.
Then, she returned them into the safe.
Afterwards she quickly left the room.
The moment she stepped out, she ran into Xi Yankai.
Xi Yankai had just seen Xia Yangyang coming out of Liu Ruyan’s room.
Xia Yangyang still had one hand on the doorknob.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Could she be any less fortunate? Caught red-handed.
Xi Yankai eyed Xia Yangyang, “What were you doing in Aunt Liu’s room?”
Xia Yangyang answered, “I was looking for Aunt Liu, but she wasn’t in.”
Xi Yankai smirked, “From the moment you went in, I noticed, you were inside for 12 minutes, did it really take you 12 minutes to check that there was nobody there?”
Xia Yangyang furrowed her brows, “Were you watching me?”
“Not watching, just curious.”
Xia Yangyang went silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed, “The Second Master should keep this a secret for me, right? After all, you and I are considered friends.”
Xi Yankai raised an eyebrow, “We only met yesterday, isn’t it a bit too presumptuous of Miss Xia to consider us familiar?”
Xia Yangyang continued to smile, “I’m friends with Chen Yu, considering your relationship with Chen Yu, we can barely consider ourselves friends, right?”
Mentioning Chen Yu, Xi Yankai’s expression suddenly changed, “You know Chen Yu?”
“We know each other quite well, and I even have his private phone number.”
Chen Yu, I’m sorry, I had to throw you under the bus for this crucial moment.
Xi Yankai was silent for a while, then said, “Deal.”
Xia Yangyang hadn’t proposed any business.
However, both of them knew what each other was implying.
But Xi Yankai’s gaze towards Xia Yangyang softened a tad, “If you’re looking for valuable items, Aunt Liu stores important things in the safe in her office, not here.”
This Xi Yankai was indeed smart, he’d successfully guessed her intentions.
Xia Yangyang said, “Thank you for the information.”
After separating from Xi Yankai, Xia Yangyang planned to return to her own room.
Her cold seemed to be getting worse, and her head had started to feel fuzzy.
She hadn’t found what she was looking for, she couldn’t afford to let her investigations get exposed.
Just as she reached her doorstep, Xia Weiwei walked out from her own room.
Ironically enough, in the past ten years, during their time in the Xia mansion, their rooms were right across from each other’s.
And now, Xia Weiwei’s room happened to be opposite the guest room Xia Yangyang was staying in.
Seeing Xia Yangyang’s sick and weary appearance, Xia Weiwei felt a sense of satisfaction.
It was her who had Han Cheng arrange for Xia Yangyang to stay in the chilly room with no heating.
The blanket she had given her was pitifully thin too.
After spending a cold and gloomy night in the attic, it’d be a surprise if Xia Yangyang didn’t catch a cold.
Xia Weiwei approached, “Xia Yangyang, if you’re wise, you would leave immediately. Go back where you came from, don’t stick around here and ask for trouble.”
Of course Xia Weiwei wanted Xia Yangyang to leave.
As long as she was around, Gu Qichen’s attention would be on her.
However, Xia Yangyang just laughed, “You hope that I’ll disappear without a trace, like I did four years ago?”
