Chapter 2419: Did you think I was a feeble-minded child?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ah-Zhong expected Tangtang to say that and made preparations beforehand, so he wasn’t afraid. He feigned a stunned expression as he asked, “Little Young Master, you can’t wildly say things like that! I’ve been with Madam for so many years, and I’m undyingly loyal. Why would I tell you to do such a thing?
“Although I also really hope it was me who did this so Madam will be okay. Unfortunately, Chief Liu won’t believe you even if you say that…”
As Ah-Zhong tried to clear his name, he didn’t forget to express his loyalty and pretend to be a good person.
Hmph, little brat! You want to drag me in? You’re too naive!
Words alone weren’t proof. Plus, Tangtang was a child, so what he said was completely useless.
Yin Yuerong was also aware of that fact…
However, it was enough.
This child might loathe her but had a kind-hearted nature and couldn’t bear it when he saw her being taken away.
To her, it was already enough that Tangtang could step forward and say what he said at a time like this.
When Tangtang heard Ah-Zhong, he looked at Ah-Zhong like he was looking at an idiot. “Ah-Zhong, don’t tell me that you thought I was a feeble-minded child this whole time?”
Are you saying you aren’t a child? Are you saying you’re stupid?
Although Ah-Zhong thought that, he maintained his courteous front. “Of course not, Little Young Master! You’re naturally exceptionally intelligent, Little Young Master!”
<i>1</i>“Oh…” Tangtang nodded. “Since I’m not an idiot, then it appears you’re the idiot. Why do you think I wouldn’t be cautious when you acted completely out of character and used toys and snacks to tempt me to do a strange task?”
The child’s words made Ah-Zhong’s heart indescribably skip a beat. This child’s expression was truly too calm and didn’t resemble a child who didn’t know anything.
However, Ah-Zhong still didn’t think such a young child could know anything. Moreover, it was useless even if he did.
Ah-Zhong feigned ignorance. “Little Young Master, what are you saying? I don’t understand!”
Tangtang docilely smiled. “It appears you aren’t only idiotic but idiotic beyond cure.”
<i>1</i>Tangtang then dug out an object from his pocket and turned to Chief Liu. “I know words alone aren’t proof, so this is my proof.”
<i>1</i>Yin Yuerong immediately saw what Tangtang was holding. That was… the fountain pen I gave Tangtang a few days ago…
<i>1</i>This child actually carried it on him constantly…?
<i>1</i>“What is this?” Chief Liu frowned.
Tangtang pressed the power button on the pen and Ah-Zhong’s voice immediately drifted out from the pen.
This pen was equipped with a recording function.
[Ah-Zhong: Little br—Little Young Master!]
[Tangtang: Oh it’s you, Ah-Zhong! Do you need something?]
[Little Young Master, this is candy and toys I bought for you! See if you like them! Little Young Master, do you want them? I can give all of these to you as long as you do me a tiny favor!]
…
Tangtang expressionlessly asked, “Do you want to keep listening?”
When Ah-Zhong heard his own voice ringing out from the pen, he was dumbstruck.
From his interactions with Tangtang the past few days, Ah-Zhong perceived Tangtang as a cute and innocent bat who only knew how to act like a spoiled child and play cute. He never expected the child to be cunning enough to specifically record a random conversation he had with him.
<i>1</i>“Madam… Chief Liu… I was just randomly chatting with Little Young Master…” Ah-Zhong finally panicked.
Chief Liu shot him a cold glance. “Quiet. Keep listening.”
Soon, Tangtang resumed the recording.
