Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

Wei Zi is guarding the door. If Chen Luo goes out, he will definitely tell me, so it means that Chen Luo is still in this study, but...

I smiled, funny.

I saw a rocking chair in the study, and I lay down on it. There were a few books beside the rocking chair. I flipped through a few pages. They were all books about strange secrets, and I was bored. Then put it down.

Resting on the rocking chair with my eyes closed for a while, I heard a noise, looked over, and saw that the row of bookcases that were merged together suddenly separated from the middle, and then, Chen Luo came up from that path .

Chapter 22

I was a little surprised, then raised the book next to the rocking chair, clicked my tongue and said, "This book is not in vain."

Chen Luo just smiled lightly: "Thank you, madam."

I sat up from the rocking chair, looked at Chen Luo with a smile and joked, "Should I be glad that I almost walked through this study just now, but didn't trigger any deadly mechanism?"

"Madam was joking." The smile on his face did not change.

Chen Luo walked to the desk and lit the lamp. Originally, there was only one wall lamp on in the study, which seemed a bit dim, but now it suddenly became much brighter.

Then, he sorted out the slightly messy Four Treasures of the Study and various letters and documents on the desk, and then sat down.

"Hey, what is locked in your dark room?"

"An assassin."

I was aroused. After all, I was also involved in the assassination last time. If the murderer behind the scenes is found out as soon as possible, I can rest assured as soon as possible.

"Last time... caught alive?"

"Um."

"Did anything come out of the interrogation?"

I suddenly remembered that he said he had something to do back in the study last night, presumably it was to interrogate the assassin.

Thinking about it this way, I took a closer look at Chen Luo, and found that his eye sockets were black and blue, which was indeed a sign that he hadn't slept well.

He shook his head and said, "Not yet."

I'm a little disappointed, but I also know that this kind of thing can't be rushed.None of the group of assassins we encountered on the way back to Ning defected when they were obviously in a disadvantaged situation, and the few who were captured alive in the end all committed suicide collectively.According to what Chen Luo said, the mastermind behind the scenes didn't know that Chen Luo was in my carriage at the time, so the assassins we sent, no matter in terms of number or quality, the group we met must not be as good as the one Chen Luo met alone. A dial.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, he is in our hands. I don't believe there is no way to pry his mouth open."

"Hmm." Chen Luo gave me a suggestion with a gentle and harmless face: "Do you want to go and have a look with me?"

I thought about it, but I still refused, "Forget it, I'm afraid it's too bloody..."

Bloody is one aspect, but in fact, the more important reason is that the dark room in the study is probably classified as a confidential matter. Since Chen Luo didn't let Wei Zi stop me, it means that he is not afraid that I will find out about it, but this is not the case. Doesn't mean I'm allowed to snoop any more.

On the other hand, I also don't want to give him the feeling that I don't trust him.

Hearing what I said, Chen Luo didn't make any demands.

"By the way, I'm looking for you today for one thing." I told Chen Luo about Aunt Xue's visit to me today, with Zhao Fan hidden.

"She's quite pitiful, if it's convenient for you, take Yan'er back to the villa."

I waited for a long time before Chen Luo said, "Yes."

It seemed that he didn't want to talk more about Aunt Xue's matter, but my goal was basically achieved when the words were brought.

After all, Aunt Xue and I only met each other a few times.

***

After returning from the study, and then looking at the account book that I hadn't read before, the sky quickly darkened.

Today, Jinhualou's dinner was delivered a little earlier than usual, and after asking Qingqian to distribute two food boxes to Nanny Gu and Ah Mo, I was just about to ask her to sit down and eat with me, but I saw Chen Luo came in from the door.

I was a little surprised: "My husband has something to do with me?"

When we were parting in the study earlier, I asked him if he would continue to spend the night in the study tonight, and he gave me an affirmative answer.

Chen Luo had a look of awkwardness on his face: "It's really deserted to eat alone in the study."

I:"……"

Will he still be afraid of being deserted?

"Then, you let Wei Zi eat with you?" I kindly suggested.

Chen Luo looked at me expressionlessly.

Even if Qingqian gave him a pair of bowls and chopsticks and gave up the seat opposite me, she couldn't hide her courteous appearance: "Young master hasn't eaten yet, the young lady just talked about young master with the maidservant, My uncle is here, miss, don’t you think so?” Qingqian gave me a look.

Ever since this girl went to Licheng with me, she has always intentionally or unintentionally...wanted to match me and Chen Luo.

But, since he has already come, although having dinner with Chen Luo will affect my appetite a bit, I can't throw him out...

"Hmm..." I blurted out.

Chen Luo sat down in a good manner.

Qingqian served us separate meals. I saw Chen Luo picked up the chopsticks. First, he took the hibiscus fish with the chopsticks, and then fried three shredded and eight-treasure duck... Then, he praised: "Sure enough, it's the food from Madam's place." tasty."

"Really? The husband should eat more." I forced a smile and said.

Then, I watched my favorite hibiscus fish and roast chicken all go into someone's stomach.

***

The next day.

"Miss, Manager Xin is here."

"Let's go."

Side hall.

As I walked in, I glanced at the people in the side hall without a trace. There were a total of 46 people, um, which matched the number of the contracts handed over to me.

Seeing me coming, four or fifty people shouted "I have seen the master."

I stood still in front of the crowd and made a polite gesture:

"The purpose of calling everyone here today, Xin Die must have mentioned it to you, right?" I glanced at Xin Die who was standing beside me, and she nodded to me knowingly.

After I read the account book last night, I summoned Xin Die to meet with me alone, and dictated to her what I was going to do today, and asked her to notify those few of me in advance or transfer them from their original positions. Or let them stay in the same shop, but change jobs, or get demoted, or... people who get fired.

Before leaving, Xin Die expressed to me her willingness to follow me, and I accepted her surrender.

Xin Die was originally a small leader in charge of these industries, and being surrounded by her is definitely not a bad thing for me.

Therefore, now, Xin Die can be regarded as half of my confidant.

"Yes." Everyone responded.

I carefully looked at the expressions of these people, especially the expressions of those whose positions had been changed. Some of them were happy because of their promotion, some were distressed, some were resentful, and some were deeply thoughtful and completely airtight. Among them, the most emotional one was Huang Liang who wrote to Chen Luo to scold me.

Chapter 23

"Do you have any objections?"

There was a lot of discussion below, but no one expressed dissatisfaction with me directly.

Even Huang Liang who was dismissed by me, he is the focus of everyone's attention, he just pretended to be stupid when his colleagues asked the reason for his dismissal, saying that he offended his boss when he didn't know. There was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, he didn't even dare to look at me, he didn't have the arrogance in the letter he wrote to Chen Luo at all.

I walked slowly, everyone consciously made way for me, and I easily walked in front of him.
