Siheyuan: Tathagata's Palm suppresses the entire courtyard!

His fingers gently wandered over the documents, and he had begun to construct a possible plot in his mind. He had to plan each step more carefully to ensure that he could gradually dig out all the truth without arousing the other party's suspicion. His heart was filled with complex emotions, both the expectation of solving the mystery and the worry about the unknown truth.

Bang Geng looked a little tired under the light, and his fingers became a little slow when flipping through the documents. Xu Mingjie noticed Bang Geng's fatigue and couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, but he knew that now was not the time to let his emotions get the better of him.

"Bang Geng, take a break." Xu Mingjie's voice was filled with concern. "We can continue studying these documents tomorrow. Today's work has been very hard."

Bang Geng raised his head with a hint of gratitude in his eyes. He nodded, stood up, and slowly walked to the sofa in the room and sat down, obviously wanting to relax a little. Xu Mingjie continued to sort out the documents on the table, but he was still thinking about how to continue the investigation.

The night outside had completely fallen, and the courtyard of the quadrangle became unusually quiet. Xu Mingjie looked out the window, and the moonlight sprinkled in the courtyard, bringing a peaceful atmosphere. However, his heart was like a turbulent sea, full of worries and expectations for the future. He knew that the process of uncovering these mysteries would be a difficult battle, but he was fully prepared.

He sat down, opened his notebook, and began to record his discoveries and thoughts tonight one by one. His pen moved quickly on the paper, trying to connect all the clues and construct a complete story.

Xu Mingjie's mood gradually calmed down, but he knew that solving the problem brought by Bang Geng was only the first step. At present, he had to take corresponding actions against other key figures in the family. Qin Huairu, another important figure in the family, had attracted Xu Mingjie's attention with her whereabouts and behavior in the past few months. She seemed to always be able to cleverly avoid direct responsibility, but secretly manipulated many things.

Xu Mingjie decided to meet Qin Huairu tonight to give her a warning. Although he didn't know Qin Huairu's real motive, he knew that he had to make her feel the pressure from within the family in order to force her to reveal the truth. With a sense of determination and a hint of nervousness in his heart, Xu Mingjie changed into a clean and neat set of clothes, walked out of the room, and headed for Qin Huairu's residence.

Under the moonlight, Xu Mingjie's steps were firm and fast. Various possible conversations and strategies flashed through his mind, and he had to make sure that he could maintain enough dignity and skills when talking to Qin Huairu. He knew that facing such a shrewd woman, strength and threats alone might not be enough, and he needed to use his wisdom and psychological tactics.

Arriving at Qin Huairu's residence, Xu Mingjie rang the doorbell. There was a sound of footsteps inside the door, and Qin Huairu's maid opened the door and was surprised to see Xu Mingjie.

"Mr. Xu, you're here? Please wait a moment, I'll go and inform the lady right away." The maid said politely and turned to go into the house.

Soon, Qin Huairu came to the door in person, her face still as calm as water, as if nothing had happened. A smile flashed in her eyes, but Xu Mingjie keenly caught the faint uneasiness in it.

"Mr. Xu, why did you come here in person? Please come in." Qin Huairu's voice was a little polite, but Xu Mingjie could sense a bit of defensiveness hidden in her politeness.

"Ms. Qin, I have something to discuss with you in person." Xu Mingjie's voice was firm and unyielding, "Please let me in."

Qin Huairu nodded gently and led Xu Mingjie into the living room. Her movements were smooth and graceful, as if every step was carefully planned. The decoration of the living room was elegant and warm, and the paintings on the wall and the furniture showed her unique taste for life.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Xu." Qin Huairu smiled and pointed to the sofa. "Would you like something to drink?"

Xu Mingjie sat down and looked around the living room, finding that the layout here was very exquisite, but his attention quickly turned back to Qin Huairu. He had to stay calm and try to face her with a high profile.

"No need, I'll get straight to the point." Xu Mingjie's voice was filled with an unquestionable firmness, "I recently learned about some things within the family, especially the part involving you."

Qin Huairu's face changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She spoke with some concern, "Oh? What is Mr. Xu talking about?"

Xu Mingjie took out a document from his pocket and spread it on the table. The document detailed some abnormal situations regarding the family's finances. The amounts and transactions involved in these situations were quite suspicious, and it was obvious that they might be related to Qin Huairu's behavior.

"These documents record some abnormal situations within our family." Xu Mingjie's voice was calm, "I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."

Qin Huairu frowned slightly, and her eyes swept over the documents, then revealed a bit of confusion. "These documents do show some problems, but I am not directly involved in these matters."

Xu Mingjie was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he did not show it immediately. He knew that in the face of such superficial calmness, a deeper strategy must be used to achieve the goal. "Can you tell me if you know the details of these transactions? After all, these transactions are closely related to the family's finances."

Qin Huairu's eyes flashed with hesitation, and her face turned slightly pale. "I'm really not very clear about these things, and I may need a more in-depth investigation."

Xu Mingjie noticed that there was something unnatural in Qin Huairu's tone, and he knew that she might not be as innocent as she said. So he decided to continue to exert some psychological pressure to try to make Qin Huairu feel more uneasy.

"Ms. Qin, I hope you can understand that what I need now is full cooperation." Xu Mingjie's voice was a little majestic. "If these problems are not resolved as soon as possible, it will not only affect the family's reputation, but may also lead to more serious consequences."

Qin Huairu's expression began to become more solemn, and her fingers gently stroked the armrest of the sofa, as if trying to stabilize her emotions. "Mr. Xu, I really don't fully understand these things, but I will try my best to cooperate with your investigation."

Xu Mingjie's heart was slightly relieved, but he knew that he had to keep up a certain amount of pressure to push things forward. He continued to observe Qin Huairu's reaction and tried to find more clues from her words and actions.
