Chapter 509: What are they hiding?

Chi Lian’s plane touched down in the capital in the evening and she was driven straight home by old tiger and spider who were waiting for her. When they saw her, their faces had turned prickly immediately.

"Let me guess," she told them in the car, "You are unhappy because once again I went somewhere and left you behind."

"You can’t keep doing this boss." old tiger said, his hands were moving around unnecessarily as another way of additionally expressing his feelings. "You said that were are trusted men, spider and I are supposed to be by your side all the time. Why make us bodyguards if you never use us except to run errands? You should fire us if you are going to keep this up, we are becoming useless, look at my muscles, they are turning into mush."

She nodded pretentiously, as if she was taking his rant seriously. "What have the Yan’s been been up to?" They both had to supervise the team monitoring the camera feed and also go in to change the positions of the cameras because the Yan’s enjoyed redecorating. Weirdly too, they scanned their entire house for bugs monthly. Who did such a thing? The royal family she could understand but the Yan’s not really. It was not the only weird thing, they often spoke in code when it came to important conversations saying things like, ’Did you get item two? , how are the ducks?, bring the fish to that place. They were up to something, she was absolutely certain that they were up to something nefarious. Nobody went to all the lengths they were going to without having something to hide or plot. But what were they hiding?

The team was combining all these words, figuring out how often they were used and what was used to refer to a specific thing while monitoring their movements to attach a clear picture to all the cryptic wording.

"Yan Daya got information about the Da Hong Pao tree in the department of agriculture being fake. Their family is looking into it, I think someone in that department opened their mouth because the family patriarch wants to leak the news of the tree being fake to the media to force whoever took it into returning it. That Yan Daya is not stupid, she already came to the conclusion that maybe the emperor has a hand in it. So far her words do not hold water because their is no evidence, the royal butler did a good job in covering all their tracks."

Of course Yan Daya was not stupid, Chi Lian thought. She had many suspicions that the woman was behind Fu Jui, squirrel and piggy’s accident but she had no proof. Even T4 had not yet found anything leaking her to it so right now, they were tracking her assistant and brother as well.

"She has a second phone, a burner phone." Spider said, "It’s an old model that does not connect to the internet at all."

"Can we get our hands on it?" she asked him.

"It would be too suspicious if it went missing and since we do not know how long she has had it, it could have markings that only she can identify so we can’t replace it." he explained.

"T4, can it be cloned?" She had her system to back her up, things like hidden markings did not worry her.

"She is not the only one, most of them have burner phones." old tiger added.

"This almighty system can clone everything, bring them to me host. And don’t forget to take me out on a walk tomorrow evening."

"Yes, yes, your majesty T4, please command me as you please." she replied pretentiously in a playful manner.

"Bring the phones to me one or two at a time when the owner is out, I have a way of dealing with them all."

"Boss, I knew you would have a way." old tiger immediately said. "There is almost nothing you can’t do. I told spider to be confident, with you at the wheel everything can be handled smoothly. Seriously boss, you are the best."

Spider rolled his eyes and stepped on the speed, the sooner he got away from old tiger the better. He was always like this around the boss, speaking as if his lips were dipped in honey.

"I do the work and you get the praise." T4 said unhappily.

"I am creating a beach for you, what more do you want from me?" she responded to his musings.

"Boss, um, I don’t know if it’s my place to tell you but I overheard your grandparents speaking. Old master Wang intends to push for young master Chi Wei to get married as soon as possible. He wants him to get married before young master Rui does."

"What?" she asked loudly in response to old tiger’s shocking news. "What are you talking about, it has not even been two months since his heart was broken by Jian Yu. Even if he has healed this is not right, why rush?"

"He is seeing someone." Spider told her.

"What?" she asked again, louder than she did the first time. She did not spy on her brothers or family members and T4 was only to update her if they were in danger. It seems, she had been out of the loop for so long. "Who is it, when did he meet her, how long has been seeing her?" There was so much she wanted to know.

"Her name is Su Manchu, she is the daughter of the second son of the patriarch of the Su family. Her father is the vice president of Sunning motors, he is also a share holder in Xunam hotels. He served in the army thirty years ago and retired to join the family business after his father was discovered to be suffering from a heart condition. The girl, Manchu is a soldier but she serves as a reserve officer. Most of her job entails paperwork so she doesn’t go out on any dangerous missions. Despite this she is one of the best fighters on the capital military base. She has a black belt, two awards from the national judo competition and one gold medal from the Olympics which is also in judo by the way." Spider filled her in on this casually.

"You have researched her quite thoroughly." she said. "I am impressed." Spider always acted uninterested in the many dramas and affairs of their family but every once in a while he surprised her, like right now.

"Yes, I had to boss, if she is going to be the young master’s wife then we need to know everything about her."

Chi Lian sighed and checked the family chat group on her phone, not even one mention of anyone’s dating life. Did Chi Wei know what their grandfather was planning? One brother was marrying a princess and another a niece of a minister. How things had changed for her brothers!! would Jian Yu regret her decision when she heard about this news eventually? Why was their grandfather rushing Chi Wei to marry?
