Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Delays Can Lead to Unforeseen Changes

Yunyi actually would have preferred to give these items directly to the Gu Family, thus keeping the Hua Family out of the affair. However, she didn’t know the Gu Family’s whereabouts, so she had no choice but to hand the incriminating evidence to the Hua Family members.

I’ve done all I can, Yunyi thought. I’ve avenged Mr. Chu and the original host. From now on, I’ll just focus on living my own quiet life.

By the time she returned home, the sky was already lightening with dawn’s first blush.

She set her alarm clock and immediately fell asleep.

In the Hua Family, Old Master Hua, being advanced in age, tended to wake up early. Furthermore, he had a habit of morning exercises. Upon reaching the front gate that morning, he spotted the items in the courtyard.

Curiosity led him to approach. He carefully used his walking stick to poke the bag open. After confirming there were no dangerous items inside, he then used his hands to fully open it and examine its contents. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

When he got a clear view of what was inside, his eyes widened in surprise.

His first thought, however, was about who could have thrown these items in. Could it be someone deliberately trying to stir up trouble? he wondered.

After bringing the items into the study, he immediately called over Hua Wanqing and a few grandsons who were at home to discuss. "What do you all think?"

Hua Wanqing reviewed the account books repeatedly. "Dad, these account books should be real. After all, these reflect over a decade of meticulous, day-to-day record-keeping. Who would be so bored as to fabricate several fake account books just to frame the Shen Family?"

Hua Shengli, the eldest grandson, frowned and asked, "But how did these items end up at our home?"

It was then that Hua Shengming, the second grandson, spoke up, "Grandfather, Uncle, whether these items are real or fake, why not invite the Gu Family over to take a look? They’ve been at odds with the Shen Family for years and will certainly know more about the Shen Family’s affairs than we do."

After a pause, he added, "Some matters become complicated if delayed; we absolutely mustn’t give the Shen Family time to react."

She was overwhelmingly sleepy. But I’m leaving tomorrow, and there’s still so much to do today! With this realization, she forced herself to get out of bed.
