Chapter 191: Taking Action

tlefield without smoke and fire is like."After finishing his words, the man stood up from his armchair, straightened his clothes slightly, turned and walked out of the study without a word.The study w...The rustling sound wasn't loud, but the old man didn't notice it. He accidentally knocked over a crystal ornament on the table, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He carefully picked it up and saw that it was unharmed. Then, a large stone in his chest finally fell.

He nervously glanced towards the door before slowly letting out a heavy breath.

Knowing that no one would be coming at this time, the elder's movements were not hurried or panicked. Instead, he meticulously erased all traces of his presence in the room.

The file folder on the table was identical to the one in his hands.

This folder is easy to buy and doesn't have any special features, it's just the most ordinary one.

Despite this, the old man was still not quite reassured. He cautiously opened the folder in his hand, took out the documents inside, and then switched them with the documents from the folder on the table.

"What are you doing in Boss's study"

A questioning voice arose behind the elder, who was in the process of swapping two documents. The elder's heart skipped a beat!

In an instant, cold sweat poured down.

I was hesitant to look back, slowly turning my head inch by inch... It was Shen Yi.

"You, weren't you supposed to go to the hospital with your husband"

Shen Yi frowned, "Xia Butler, you haven't answered me yet, how could you enter Boss's study" Following Boss to the hospital was Shen Er, not him. Two days ago, Boss assigned him another task.

In the past, Boss would always have both him and Shen Er by his side. Recently, however, Boss has shown more favoritism towards Shen Er. Even today when Mr. Shen suddenly fell ill and fainted, in an emergency situation, Boss sent Shen Er to drive while leaving him behind, claiming it was for the sake of protecting the manor. In reality, Shen Yi felt Boss's distance from him through this.

Feeling uneasy, he walked to the second floor. Unexpectedly, he heard a sound coming from the study. The sound wasn't loud, but it aroused his suspicion.

At this point in time, who would be in the study Mr. clearly had already left.

Shen Yi's mind flashed, the first thing he thought of was...that woman!

When the master was away, that woman began to run wild!

Disgust flashed in Shen Yi's eyes.

This disgust comes from the deepest part of my heart, it's not something that can be easily faked.

But as soon as he thought of the woman in the study acting secretly behind his back, Shen Yi quietly followed. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully. Sure enough, the muffled sound just now was not his imagination. Standing in the corridor, rustling sounds kept coming from the study. Shen Yi's heart pounded like thunder... Finally! He finally caught this woman's handle!

Everyone says catch a thief with his goods, Shen Yi warned himself not to startle the snake. He had to wait until he caught her red-handed and then see how she could justify herself!

Make sure BOSS sees this woman's true face too!

The study was dark, with no lights on. Heavy curtains were half-drawn, and at first glance, only a black figure could be seen. Shen Yi's blood boiled... Finally! I've caught you in the act!

But the next second, Shen Yi froze, "What are you doing in Boss's study" It was Xia the butler!

I was utterly shocked!

Summer Butler didn't answer and asked back, and his evasive actions all aroused Shen Yi's suspicion: "Also, what do you have in your hand"

Xia Guanjia's old face tightened: "It's nothing."

Shen Yi glanced, his hand was quick, he swiftly snatched the document from Xia Guanjia's hand.

"Shen Yi! You can't look!"

Xia, the housekeeper, whispered angrily.

This aroused Shen Yi's suspicion even further. He glanced at the document, and with a wave of his hand, he sent Xia the house manager, who was reaching out to grab it, far away. "What is this"

"It's nothing!"

"What are you doing sneaking into Boss's study" Shen Yi didn't believe him at all. Logically, he shouldn't be looking at these files, but on the one hand, Xia Butler's actions made him suspicious, and on the other hand, he was curious about what kind of thing could make the usually composed Xia Butler lose his composure.

With one hand he shoved Summer Butler, and with the other held up a document. He didn't intend to look at it carefully; he was just trying to scare Summer Butler. "Why can't I see it Is there something you don't want me to see If you don't tell me, I'll just take a look myself."

It was just a show, meant to scare Mr. Xia, but as I glanced over, my peripheral vision caught a line of bold text and I immediately felt a chill run down my spine.

Ignoring Summer Butler's presence, he quickly skimmed through the documents.

Suddenly, a powerful force surged from the side and charged towards Shen Yi: “Don’t look! Don’t look!!!”

Summer Butler was in a panic.

Shen reached out and with a light push, sent Xia the butler stumbling backward. His foot caught, and he fell.

"What is this! Butler Xia! Is what's written here true" He couldn't believe it, his eyes gradually fell on another file folder on the desk. He remembered seeing a black shadow switching files at the door just now...Without hesitation, Shen Yi grabbed the file bag on the table and opened it in a hurry, skimming through it quickly.

Two documents, two completely different "truths".

Which one is real, and which one is fake... In fact, there's no need to ask. Shen Yi's heart already knew the answer. If the document in Xia Butler's hand was fake, why would Xia Butler sneak into the master's study to switch documents

Xia Guanjia slumped on the ground, suddenly moved, and knelt towards Shen Yi, grabbing onto Shen Yi's pants with a pitiful look:

"Don't tell the master, okay"

Shen Yida was astonished!

Just pretend you don't know about this, I beg you, Xia! ... This is all for Wei Ming! Shen Yi, think about it, Wei Ming has always been kind, gentle and considerate, she's also timid. How could she possibly do something like that

It's all because of Jian Tong!

You know, publicly, Weiming is a woman that Mr. [Name] values greatly. This fact is well-known within the circle.

But as Wei Min's friend, Jian Tong, that woman still wouldn't give up, clinging to her husband everywhere.

Wei Ming is indeed insecure. It's my fault, I didn't give Wei Ming a noble status. She's just the daughter of a housekeeper. As for Jian Tong She is the jewel of the Jian family, the darling of heaven in people's eyes. Such an outstanding woman, she is devoted to her husband and launches a fierce pursuit.

Wei Ming was terrified, terrified that one day, her husband would be taken away by someone like Jian Tong, a prodigious talent from heaven.

Wei Ming acted rashly out of desperation. However, because of that woman's tardiness that evening, Wei Ming was also taken advantage of by those beasts. Wei Ming paid for her momentary lapse in judgment with her own life!

Is this not enough

"No matter how great a sin it is, isn't one life enough to atone for it"

Summer Butler's tears streamed down his face: "Shen Yi, Wei Ming may have done wrong, but it was all because of Jian Tong. Now that Master has married that woman, and that woman has successfully married Master, isn't this exactly what she yearned for"

Why bring up past events to study again Why dwell on things that happened years ago

That woman became Mrs. Shen... Wei Ming is left with only a urn of ashes... I, Lao Xia, only have this one daughter, and my daughter has gone to another world. I only hope to leave her a good reputation in this world, and that in her husband's heart, she will always be that gentle, kind, slightly timid, and innocent young girl... Shen Yi, Lao Xia begs you! I'm bowing to you! You just pretend you didn't see anything, hear nothing!

Didn't that woman also get what she wanted

Isn't this good enough A happy ending for everyone, and the only thing I care about is making sure Wei Ming isn't humiliated and trampled upon even after her death!

Shen Yi, Xia Shu knows you... have liked Wei Ming since you were little. You wouldn't want Wei Ming to be seen as a vicious woman by the world, would you

Besides, Weiming only made a slight mistake! She didn't mean to harm anyone!

"That woman was her closest friend! How could she possibly intentionally harm her"

Shen Yi's nerves tightened... When Xia Guanjia said that phrase "You've liked Wei Ming since you were little," he knew, his decision was made.

"Butler Xia, answer me first... Actually, you knew the truth a very long time ago, didn't you"

“I… Wei Ming mentioned this to me once, I thought she was joking. Wei Ming also said that she just wanted to scare Jian Tong, taking nude photos as evidence, she wouldn’t really make anything happen to Jian Tong…she just hopes that woman won't bother Mr. anymore in the future… …I, I just took it as a joke, after all, Wei Ming has always been timid since she was a child.”

Shen clenched his fist, closed his eyes, and threw the file in front of Xia the Butler: "Remember, I'm not covering for you, and I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for Wei Ming's lifelong reputation and her purity in Master's heart. Today, I never came here, never saw you, and never saw the file."

After finishing his words, he turned and left. As he walked down the corridor, the light illuminated Shen Yi's pale lips and the pain etched between his brows.

As I was walking downstairs, before I even reached the bottom, I heard voices talking.

It's that woman!

Shen Yi stumbled, his foot landing on empty air. Although he managed to steady himself in time, a muffled thud still echoed through the room.

He glanced sideways, the woman was facing away from him, but just as he looked over, she turned her head to look at him...his heart leaped!

There was a strange feeling of guilt and shame.

He glared back coldly, a clear expression of displeasure towards the woman etched on his face.

Shen Yi looked, and the woman who was looking at him withdrew her gaze lightly. She seemed to brush past his displeasure and disgust as if it were nothing, not caring at all.

Perhaps... that stubborn cognition in one's heart, that stubborn conviction, was suddenly shattered.

Each note, each phrase, every word, was accusing him of his disgust for this woman with absolutely no basis!

Someone who is morally upright and despises others for no reason, someone who looks down on them with justification, and often finds reasons to subtly mock them, suddenly has black and white evidence laid out before him: Your disgust is completely baseless!

The person who had always been so righteous in their disgust towards her suddenly had no reason to justify their righteous disgust!

Shen Xin's heart was filled with inexplicable feelings, and she felt a deep sense of guilt. She let out a cold snort from her nose, "Hmph!"

And then he passed by this woman, not even uttering a "Madam," and hurried out of the gate in a rush... He seemed to be disgusted, but in reality, he felt guilty in his heart.

"Wang Guanjia, today Jian Hu is having a birthday, I need to go back to the Jian residence for a bit." process this, Xia the Butler was glaring at her with a ferocious expression:“But even if Xia Wei Ming wasn't a good person, I raised her for over ten years. Even cats and dogs have feelings! Jian Ton...
