Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again-Chapter 3717: Looking for Di Xicheng

Nie Qingru still had not sorted out her emotions. "What are they doing here?"

Shadow looked at her before lowering his head to stare at the tip of his leather shoes. He did not say anything. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Nie Qingru pinched the space between her eyebrows and suppressed the haze in her eyes before saying in a deep voice, "Let them come."

The people from the Leonard family quickly arrived, with one young man among a group of old men in their sixties and seventies. It was Luke, who had grown up with Leonard.

Luke greeted Shadow and tactfully walked to the corner to stand next to him as background.

Shadow observed him solemnly. Luke did not show any abnormalities, so Shadow looked away in confusion.

"Empress, we heard about a small accident outside Smith Bank." The old man in the lead was the first to break the silence. "We specially came over to take a look."

"Thank you for your hard work. He’s fine and is still being bandaged inside." Nie Qingru nodded, as noble and arrogant as ever.

The old man did not mind. He looked in the direction she was looking and suddenly asked meaningfully, "Does the Empress know the person who was shot this time?"

Nie Qingru stared at him. "What’s the meaning of this? Are you questioning me?"

The old man did not act arrogantly. He hurriedly bowed and apologized. "Of course, I have no intention of doubting the Empress. It’s just... we’ve found the identity of the person who reported us behind the scenes."

"Oh?" Nie Qingru’s heart raced.

The old man met her gaze. "Coincidentally, it’s the young man who was shot this time."

Nie Qingru immediately narrowed her eyes, her face expressionless. She only reminded him indifferently, "Have you investigated thoroughly? Don’t be used by others."

She had been in a high position for decades and was very oppressive.

The old man was affected but still straightened his back and smiled. "Empress, we wouldn’t have come to you without evidence."

They were asking for him?

Nie Qingru did not have the time to sneer.

The old man continued coldly, "An hour ago, we found that our account book had been stolen. We can’t be sure when it was stolen because all the surveillance cameras have been destroyed. The technicians haven’t been able to recover the data yet. However, that account book contains all the income and expenditure of our various factories worldwide this year. In other words... the reported accounts are also recorded on it. Moreover, this account book can be used as the most primitive evidence."

Nie Qingru felt as if she was being choked by an invisible hand. Her expression kept changing. "You mean..."

She felt that Di Xicheng was not that insensible.

However, she couldn’t be 100% sure. At this juncture, it was too ambiguous. Only Di Xicheng was the most suspicious.

These elders of the Leonard family obviously thought so. The old man’s tone was rude. "Empress, we’re all members of the reclusive families. If we have any conflicts in private, we can discuss them in private. We don’t need to discuss if we’re right or wrong about the matter we reported previously. However, the theft of the account book has already crossed our bottom line! Regardless of whether this matter is brought out or discussed here, we definitely want an explanation. And the account book... We must get it back!"

Nie Qingru was well aware of how important the account book of a large family was. She also knew the severity of the matter. She could only purse her lips and endure the other party’s criticism.

"His wounds are still being bandaged, and he’s not conscious. I’ll give you an explanation when he’s awake."
