Chapter 2422: A happy family together

“Unfortunately… that adopted son…”
Chief Liu continued, “Director Yin, forgive me for being blunt, but this servant couldn’t have planned such an important matter or obtained such an important ledger. There must be someone else behind him.”
Yin Yuerong aloofly replied, “I know.”
It could only be Yin Heng.
At this moment, Ah-Zhong finally realized his predicament and loudly started crying for help. “Madam! Madam, I was wrong! It wasn’t me! I didn’t want to do this! It was Young Master Yin Heng!
“He’s the one who ordered me to frame you! He’s the one who thought of having me use Little Young Master to put this item inside your study! He gave me this ledger! I’ll tell you everything!”
Ah-Zhong knew he was completely finished, so he ratted Yin Heng out without a pause.
Yin Yuerong coldly looked at the ceaselessly begging Ah-Zhong without a trace of warmth in her eyes. She didn’t even want to raise a single inquiry about why he betrayed her.
“Chief Liu, take him away,” Yin Yuerong told him directly.
Chief Liu responded, “Alright, I’ll take him away now. I will continue to investigate things, including the people connected to this ledger. Please pardon us for the offenses earlier.”
“You’re being polite.”
“Excuse us.”
“Auntie Qiao, escort Chief Liu out.”
“Madam! Madam, save me! I beg you to spare me! Spare me just this time! It was really Young Master Yin Heng who ordered me to do everything…”

Ah-Zhong’s wails were cut off after the front door closed as he finally disappeared from Wanmei Villa.
When Tangtang saw Yin Yuerong pale as a piece of paper and somewhat absent-minded, he quickly helped her to sit down on a chair. “Grandma, are you okay?”
“Grandma’s fine.” Yin Yuerong was gentle.
“Don’t be sad, Grandma. My mommy once taught me that people who can bear to hurt you aren’t worth your sadness,” Tangtang comforted her.
<i>2</i>Yin Yuerong looked at the little fella and couldn’t help but remember her Ah-Jiu.
In truth, as a mother, merely going by how well that girl, Worriless Nie, raised Tangtang, Worriless Nie was 100 times stronger than her…
<i>1</i>“Thank you, Tangtang,” Yin Yuerong said.
Tangtang responded with a smile, “Grandma, we’re family!”
When Yin Yuerong heard that, an ache filled her heart. “Tangtang, if I was really the same as described by outsiders, what would you do?”
“The same as described by outsiders?”
Yin Yuerong finally told him the truth. “I don’t have a good relationship with your dad and mom. Because of some matters, there’s a very large gap and conflict between us…”
She didn’t want to deceive Tangtang anymore.
Tangtang seriously mulled over it before honestly saying, “Grandma, I don’t know why you have a conflict, but I think you must both have your own reasons. Tangtang understands, but Tangtang would probably still be sad…”
Tangtang looked up and quietly asked, “Grandma, can’t we be a happy family together?”
Yin Yuerong turned silent. “…”
A happy family together?
What a foreign and distant concept for her…
She knew her own personality well. Some things were engraved deep in her bones, and she wouldn’t be able to change or forgive her entire life.
When it came to the matter regarding the revision of the laws alone, as long as she and Ah-Jiu couldn’t reach an agreement, they would stand in opposition their entire lives.
