Xiang Wan didnt go to Bai Muchuans office since the two of them needed to talk business.

She returned to her office and wanted to record all that happened during An Yings interrogation earlier.

This was a rare experience considering how mundane life could get.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, an ordinary person might not experience this in their entire lifetime.

During the interrogation process, she felt an uncontrollable feeling of amazement.

Right from the beginning, when they talked to An Ying, followed by his refusal to cooperate and this unexpected twist Mm, it was even more exciting than a novel.

There was a saying that said art imitates life, this was so true!

She poured a cup of water and sat on her swivel chair. As she drank the water, she turned her chair. She was also thinking about how she should write this experience down Until Fang Yuanyuan messaged her.

Sis, the royalties this month have been paid earlier than usual. Why didnt I hear you talk about it?

Eh? Royalties have been paid?

Xiang Wan had been too focused on the cases that she hadnt checked her royalties and her bank account.

She quickly searched her messages, found the notification from her bank, and felt thrilled.

Oh my G.o.d! Theres so much.

Fang Yuanyuan replied with nothing but silence.

Looks you are not bothered about the royalties that I even have to remind you about it. How about this? Ill give you my bank account number, so you can transfer it to my account?

Fat hope. Xiang Wan was delighted as she looked at the numbers. I endured all kinds of hards.h.i.+ps to earn this much, dont even think about it

Are you sure? It doesnt sound like that to me. You must have written so much that you became stupid.

What doesnt sound right? Xiang Wan bantered with her. Tch, you must be jealous of me!

Yeah, yeah, Im jealous of you that you earned so much royalties. How are you going to reward your editor who endured all kinds of hards.h.i.+ps to help you?

Xiang Wan was amused.

Ill buy you a bunch of cat food

So you can let Bao Jie enjoy them. Aint this good of me?

D*rn! Youre stingy.

I cant talk anymore. I gotta get back to work!

Fang Yuanyuan asked, When are you coming home?

I dont know. There are so many things happening. I think I would only go home at night Why? Miss me?

Fat chance. Fang Yuanyuan refused to admit that. Im just bored since Im all alone at home I suddenly realized that my trip to the Capital this time was meaningless

It is. Xiang Wan laughed as she bantered with her. Your main motive is that youre after the food in my house.

So, you want to chase me away?

Of course not! Im just worried that your Huanghuang might miss you too much.

Aye! I want to go back too. Huanghuang told me that he would be discharged soon, and he would go back to his hometown with his mom. He even asked me if Im interested in coming along. What do you think he means by this?

Interested in coming along?

They were married already!

Looks like he hasnt realized the fact that hes married. I need to go back to educate him.

Just go!

But Sis, Im worried about you.

Xiang Wan consoled her. Ill be fine. I have Bai Muchuan with me.

But he cant keep you company for 24 hours.

As if you can do it

Of course, I can. As long you sleep with me at night and not him.

Xiang Wan cracked up when she saw that. You need not worry about me. You should follow your hubby back to his hometown and think of a way to tell your parents about your marriage.

Fang Yuanyuan kept quiet.

For a while, Xiang Wan didnt receive any messages from her.

Xiang Wan sent a message.

Whats up?

Someones at the door, replied Fang Yuanyuan, wait a moment.

Okay, replied Xiang Wan. She thought that maybe Xie Wanwan, Tang Yuanchu, and Wei Bing had come returned.

This time, she waited for quite a while.

She had written several sentences before Fang Yuanyuan messaged back.

Its people from building management.

Building management?

Xiang Wan asked, What did they say?

They asked if the bathroom in the house was leaking. They told me that the resident living below reported that the ceiling of their home was leaking so badly that they have to renovate their house

What? So is it really the case? Xiang Wan found this strange.

Bai Muchuan was very particular about the renovation of the house.

He had used the best materials when he renovated the house.

Naturally, the waterproofing of the tiles in the bathroom would have been properly done. There shouldnt be any leak!

True enough, Fang Yuanyuan immediately complained. There isnt any leak at all! They went in to see the bathroom and verified this. Then they told me that the problem could lie with the resident living upstairs or the resident beside ours and left This is so weird. This is such a good neighborhood, how come there is such unreliable building management?

That shocked Xiang Wan somewhat.

Fang Yuanyuan, no matter who comes, do not open the door unless you know that person.

Whats up?

Dont ask. Just stay at home and dont go out.

When Xiang Wan instructed her, she took her coat, wore it, and went to Bai Muchuans office in a hurry.

Fang Yuanyuans messages kept popping up. Whats the situation? Xiang Wan, dont scare me Im alone at home, and Im scared now!

Xiang Wan quickly messaged back. Didnt you say that you are here to catch demons? Whats there to be afraid of? Dont worry and follow according to what I said. It will be okay.

Although she said that to console Fang Yuanyuan, Xiang Wan was actually worried inside.

She hoped that she was overly sensitive and too cautious, but she didnt want to take chances when it comes to safety matters.

Knock! Knock! Knock! She was now outside Bai Muchuans office.

Come in! It was his voice.

Xiang Wan opened the door and noticed that he was alone in his office.

Your brothers gone back?

She had said that casually

And noticed instantly that Bai Muchuans eyebrows were crumpled together. She changed the topic and told him about her conversation with Fang Yuanyuan earlier, as well as her own thoughts about the supposed leaking check.

Its strange that the building management would send people over at this point in time. Something doesnt feel right about it.

Bai Muchuan agreed with her and motioned for her sit down while he made a call to the building management.

Soon, he ended the call, and his face went cold.

You got it right. The building management told me that they didnt send anyone over at all

Xiang Wan felt her back stiffening. They actually dared to come to our house? They dared to visit the house of a detective

With such guts, these people could have done well in other lines of work.

What is their motive for doing so?

Bai Muchuan did not reply to her.

Xiang Wan seemed worried. I have to ask Yuanyuan what they did

Whats the use of asking her? Bai Muchuan talked in a tepid tone. If she sensed something amiss, she would have told you earlier.

He was right.

How about this? Lets go back and check out the situation.

Alright.

Bai Muchuan took his car and headed back home with Xiang Wan.

While on the journey, Xiang Wan asked him what he talked about with Bai Muxuan. He only told her that it was about Heavens Wrath. Since this involved some confidential information, he didnt tell her much stuff. However, he told her that Heavens Wrath was not only a plan but an organization.

In the zombie case, the Dark Clan was actually a subordinate organization of Heavens Wrath.

It was Heavens Wrath that instructed the Dark Clan on what to do.

The person who contacted the Dark Clan and linked them up with the unknown foreign force was actually the leader of Heavens Wrath in the country.

Also, Heavens Wrath had already existed before Cui Mings death

So, do you think Ye Lun is really the leader of Heavens Wrath in our country? Xiang Wan started to feel a headache when she thought about this.

We cant ascertain that for now.

It was his code of conduct to remain skeptical until things were confirmed.

Although all the clues were pointing to Ye Lun, there was still a possibility that things might not be the case until they found conclusive evidence.

Xiang Wan asked, Did you manage to get Tang Yuanchu?

Yup. Bai Muchuan was driving his car, and his gaze was on the road. His eyebrows were tightly knitted again when he replied. They went with Xie Wanwan to meet that CEO Song, but in the end, he never showed up.

It was rare for someone who was already a CEO to fail from attending an appointment.

Xiang Wan thought of something since she was dazed for a moment and spoke in a higher pitch. I think theres more about this than what meets the eye!

Bai Muchuan turned for a quick glance. What do you mean?

Xiang Wan said, Its a conspiracy.

She could smell a plot happening in the background.

By getting Xie Wanwan and her bodyguards to leave the house, could it be that it was a plot to lure them out? Then the fake building management officers come knocking and entered their bathroom That should be their ultimate purpose!
