Chapter 104: Chapter 104 You Really Are a FoolShe had attained the position of Mrs. Rong through some means, and dealing with servants was nothing to her.

    After stepping out of the villa, she got into the nanny car and ordered the driver to start driving. Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught sight of an old woman with graying hair wandering outside the villa, which made her furrow her eyebrows in confusion.

    "Go ask who she is and what she’s skulking around here for," she said.

    "Yes, Madam," the driver replied before getting out of the car to approach the woman, speaking with her briefly, then returning.

    "Madam, she says she’s here to see the Young Madam and seems to have some urgent matter," he reported.

    To the Rong matriarch, the woman might just be some poor relative of Lin Xinlan. Perhaps now that Xinlan had married into a wealthy family, she had come to take advantage of the situation.

    She let out a cold laugh, her eyes full of contempt and mockery. "Tell her that the person she’s looking for is not here. If she doesn’t leave immediately, we will call the police," she instructed disdainfully.

    The driver relayed her message to the woman, who looked anxiously in their direction. After the driver said something else with a stern face, the woman reluctantly left.

    The Rong matriarch let the curtain fall, propping her chin with her fingers, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.

    Lin Xinlan was nothing more than a stand-in. She really thought she was the Young Madam of the Rong Family. She had to inform Shaoze that if any unseemly characters came by, they should be turned away directly.

    For people of their stature, the last thing they wanted was trouble, and troubles brought by poor people came in spades. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Lin Xinlan played the game three more times and still failed to clear it.

    She thought about how to clear it when she went to sleep at night, and was still pondering over breakfast in the morning.

    Rong Shaoze noticed her lack of focus while eating and said discontentedly, "Eat properly if you’re going to eat, if not, leave."

    She gave him a speechless look, quickly finished her breakfast, and sat down on the sofa to continue thinking.

    After Shaoze had eaten, he came and sat down beside her.

    Lost in thought, she asked, "How exactly can I clear it? Give me a hint."

    Rong Shaoze glanced at her, amusement shining in his eyes, "Lin Xinlan, you really are a fool. If Ruoxin were playing, she would have passed it on the first try."

    "Never mind then, I’ll get through it sooner or later anyway," she said indifferently, turning her head away to continue her thoughts.

    "Then you can slowly figure it out. I’m really starting to wonder if you’ll only pass on the last attempt," he teased.

    While they were talking, Lao Gu came over respectfully and said, "Young Master, Young Madam. Two police officers are here to see the Young Madam, saying that there is a case that requires the Young Madam’s assistance."

    Lin Xinlan’s face went pale instantly.

    Her first reaction was that it had something to do with Du Ruoxin’s car accident case. She looked anxiously at Rong Shaoze, her eyes filled with suspicion and inquiry.

    Rong Shaoze caught her glance and ordered Lao Gu, "Let them in."

    "Yes, Young Master."

    "Rong Shaoze, you..."

    "Don’t speculate wildly. We haven’t even figured out what the issue is yet," Rong Shaoze said with a calm look that stopped her in her tracks.

    Two police officers arrived, a woman and a man. They sat down opposite them, exchanged pleasantries at first, and then got down to business.

    Lin Xinlan was very nervous, her hands clenched slightly, but she tried her best to appear composed on her face.

    If she really couldn’t avoid it, she would have to resign herself to her fate...

    "Mrs. Rong, I would like to ask, on the evening of July 13th, were you kidnapped by a man named Zhou Xi?" one police officer began.

    Lin Xinlan’s eyes widened in shock, not understanding how the police had come to know about the incident.
