The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 555 Unknown Sincerity
At 9:3 a.m. on September 8rd, local time in Milan, everyone in the treasure hunting team had finished their breakfast in the restaurant and were chatting while waiting for the car that our tour guide Mario had said would arrive at 30 a.m.
"Sister Yi Yu, you handed over the recording file to the Council of Elders so easily. Aren't you afraid that they will favor that sickly and crazy young master?"
When Tan Tai Hong went downstairs today, she was wearing a pair of dark trousers that were convenient for movement, but the small scarf draped over her shoulders was still red.
She deliberately sat next to Xu Yiyu during breakfast, wanting to take a closer look at this pretty older sister, and Lin Yi did not stop her.
Tan Taihong had not met the tribe leader Angelo who was friendly to Xu Yiyu, so she had always been skeptical about the reaction of the Elders Council to this evidence.
"After all, this is evidence right before our eyes. Patriarch Angelo will not show partiality."
Although Patriarch Angelo, as Kevin's father and the patriarch of the Gallo family, has always been controlled by the powerful elders in the Elders' Council, in the face of irrefutable evidence, those thick-skinned elders would have to take into account the benefits that Xu has brought to the family business and would never fall out with her if they wanted to show favoritism.
After hearing this, Tan Tai Hong curled her lips and nodded helplessly.
"Well, for me, I can only accept the attributes of crazy and yandere appearing in novels or anime."
Shan Ke, the most trendily dressed member of the theoretical group of China's first team, had liked this mischievous little detective very much on the plane to Yidali. When she saw Tan Tai Hong pouting, she immediately reached into her pocket, took out a keychain with a red pony on it and handed it to Tan Tai Hong.
Honghong is the recognized favorite among the thirty-something people in their group, and he doesn't want to make her unhappy.
When Tan Taihong saw the red pony, her eyes instantly lit up. She subconsciously glanced at Lin Yi beside her, then thanked him with a smile and took the keychain.
"Ms. Xu, you handed the recording to the Council of Elders because you wanted to see how sincere they would be in the face of this recording?"
Duan Wuque clasped his fingers together on the dining table and asked Xu Yiyu who was sitting opposite him.
“某种意义上来说,是这样.”
Xu Yiyu nodded decisively.
"The young master came to the manor and caused me trouble. Now he has hired bounty hunters from outside the family to kidnap me. If I don't ask the elders for an explanation, it would seem that I am too easy to bully."
She, Xu, does have a good temper, but that doesn't mean she can be manipulated by others at will.
The tour guide Mario, who was also sitting at the dining table, listened to what the guests were talking about. He didn't dare to interrupt at all and just concentrated on eating his breakfast. The cold sweat on his back almost soaked his clothes.
He really didn't dare to speak, he just wanted to be an invisible person at the scene.
If even one word of what these people talked about today was passed back to the Elders' Council, it would be obvious that he would be the first suspect. He didn't want to be such a person who didn't know the current situation.
"Have you ever thought of asking them for some compensation?"
"Not yet. Let's see how sincere they are in their apology. If you don't think you need anything, let those gentlemen owe it for now."
The thirty-two members of the treasure hunting team were chatting away, but Mario, who was eating frantically, felt like he was out of place.
At this moment, he wished that he was an ordinary Yidali person who could not understand Chinese at all, so that he could be a background board with peace of mind.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Mario swallowed the last bite of bread in his mouth, said a vague hello to Xu Yiyu, and ran towards the door of the main house, wanting to escape as quickly as possible from this place where he could no longer stay.
Mario, who escaped to the gate of the manor, breathed a long sigh of relief and suddenly remembered a Chinese proverb he had learned when he was studying Chinese.
The eyes observe the nose, and the nose observes the heart.
During this trip to his hometown, he should try his best to maintain this state at all times.
Fifteen minutes later, two tourist buses stopped at the door of the manor owner's house on time. The manor housekeeper who had been waiting at the door turned around and walked towards the restaurant and immediately notified Xu Yiyu and his group.
After Huang Niao and Xu Yiyu said goodbye, they left the manor first and did not go with Xu Yiyu.
As for the luggage that needed to be taken to Domiti this time, the members of the treasure hunting team had already asked the butler to arrange for someone to bring it to the first floor in advance.
As for the rest of the items that were inconvenient to take to the Domiti Mountains, Xu Yiyu placed them all in his room. He also asked the butler to take care of the luggage of more than 30 other people in advance.
The manor steward had already received instructions from Patriarch Angelo. His task during this period was to take good care of these distinguished guests and meet all their needs as much as possible. Naturally, he readily agreed to Xu Yiyu's request.
After placing all the supplies and luggage that needed to be taken to Domiti into the luggage compartment of the bus, the thirty-two members of the treasure hunting team were ready.
After Mario checked the route and destination with the drivers of the two cars, he finally stayed in the car where Xu Yiyu was.
Tan Taihong and Lin Yi were sitting behind Xu Yiyu and Xu Cheng. She seemed to be really ready to have a good time in Yidali and even put on the red round hat that she disliked so much.
After watching the bus leave the manor, the manor steward gave some instructions to the maids who were responsible for taking care of the various chores in the manor, then got into his own car, carefully hid the recorder that Xu Yiyu had given him, and drove towards the family's old house where the Presbyterian Church was located.
Mary, the housekeeper of the Gallo family's old house, was somewhat surprised when she saw the figure of the manor butler at the door of the old house.
"Brother Emilio, shouldn't you be at the manor now? Why are you back at this time?"
Mary followed Emilio and walked with him deeper into the family's old house, asking him curiously about his purpose.
Emilio just shook his head and did not tell his sister Mary the purpose of his trip. He just kept walking in the direction where the elders were.
"Are you here on someone's behalf?"
It turned out that Mary was the housekeeper in charge of managing the affairs of the estate, while her brother Emilio was in charge of managing the affairs of the old house.
It was just that Patriarch Angelo was afraid of not entertaining the distinguished guests from China well, so he transferred Emilio back to the manor and let Mary take charge of the chores in the family's old house.
"Yes, but this item should be very important to those distinguished guests. You'd better not ask too much. Knowing too much will not do any good to either of us."
Emilio knew his sister's personality very well. Although she had outstanding personal abilities, she was easily biased. He didn't want to say much to her at the moment, but just reminded her as a brother.
Mary took one look at her brother's serious expression and instantly shut up.
When the lady named Christine came to visit the old house before, she suffered a loss because of neglecting that lady. Since her brother reminded her not to ask too many questions, it was probably a request from that lady.
As her brother, Emilio would never harm her, and she certainly wouldn't be so ignorant as to keep asking questions.
Arriving at the door of the Presbyterian Church room, Emilio tidied his clothes and then respectfully knocked on the door which was as high as a floor.
After a while, the person inside the door finally responded.
"Come in."
Emilio and Mary looked at each other, opened the door and walked into the presbytery room.
"Gentlemen, Miss Xu has already left for Domiti."
"But she gave me something and asked me to pass it on to you."
