After a while, the nanny Li Yan was taken into the study, looking very panicked.

"Li Yan, don't be afraid, I just want to ask you something."

"Husband...Madam, please ask if you have anything."

Li Yan didn't know that Zhou Sheng and Qi Heng had already checked the surveillance incident. Although she was afraid, she was still trying to hold on, hoping that it was not for the matter of that book.

"Okay, then I'll ask. I've asked you before if you've seen that book. Now I want to ask you again. Tell me honestly, have you touched my book?"

Zhou Sheng was not loud. She just wanted to solve the problem peacefully, not to scare Li Yan.

"I...I didn't see it."

Li Yan was so scared that her palms were covered in sweat, but she insisted that she didn't know.

She expected that the matter would be done without anyone knowing it. As long as she did not admit it, neither Zhou Sheng nor Qi Heng would do anything to her.

Zhou Sheng pursed her lips. She was not good at quarreling with others, but it did not mean that she would not be angry. Moreover, the reason why she chose to ask Li Yan first instead of calling the police was to solve the problem peacefully.

Unexpectedly, it was now, and Li Yan refused to admit it.

Qi Heng, who had not spoken, finally spoke, but his tone was not as kind as Zhou Sheng.

"Li Yan, we already know that you took the book. You'd better explain to us why you took that book."

That book is about perfume, which is indeed a rare treasure for perfumers, but for Li Yan, it is similar to a stack of waste paper.

They didn't understand why Li Yan stole the book.

Li Yan's lips trembled.

"First... sir, I don't understand what you are talking about. I really haven't seen any books."

She was already in a difficult position to draw the bow and had no turning back. If she admitted it now, she would not dare to imagine how they would treat herself.

Besides, their suspicion could not hurt her before they could see the evidence.

Qi Heng sneered, then turned on the computer and posted the video for Li Yan to watch.

Li Yan's lips gradually turned white, and she was so scared that she fell to the ground.

How could this happen? There was surveillance at home, and she didn't know anything about it before.

"The evidence is as strong as a mountain. Do you still want to deny it? If you don't give honest advice, we have to send you to the police station. The people there may not be as easy as us."

Qi Heng's voice came into Li Yan's ears word by word, scaring her body trembled like a sieve.

Although Zhou Sheng couldn't bear it, when he thought of Li Yan's bad behavior, he still resisted the urge to speak for her.

Li Yan knelt in front of Qi Heng and Zhou Sheng and kowtowed a few times.

"I said, I said everything, please don't send me there."

Of course she knew what kind of place it was. Although she would not be beaten, once she entered, her future life would be stained and she might never find a decent job again. What should she do in the future?

"Okay, now I'll ask you and answer. If I find out you're cheating, you'll know the consequences."

Qi Heng's voice sounded again.

"Sir, just ask, I must say everything."

Li Yan was already scared and regretted it at this time. Why did she touch that book with a slutty hand? If you don’t have culture, you won’t have culture. Why do you have to pretend?

Now that I'm going to cause me such a big trouble.

"Did you get that book?" Zhou Sheng said.

Li Yan nodded, "Madam, I took it, but I was just curious for a moment, not intentionally."

"Where is that book now? Go and get it for me right away."

Zhou Sheng looked at Li Yan sternly. Now she just wanted to find the book first, and let's talk about the others later.

Li Yan hesitated again. The book was not in her hands at all, so where would she go to find it back.

"But, but that book is no longer in my hands."

After hearing this, Zhou Sheng stood up from the chair again in a hurry.

"Didn't you take it away? Why didn't you be there?" She felt anxious.

"I sold it to someone else."

Li Yan answered in a low voice.

Zhou Sheng's face turned pale when he was so angry that he asked Li Yan to buy such a precious book. You must know that he may never have the chance to buy it again in the future.

"Who did you sell the book to, and why did you sell it?"

Only then did Li Yan tell the whole story of the matter, hoping that Zhou Sheng and the others could let him go.

"Sir, Madam, I'm really obsessed with it. I thought that a book cost 200 yuan, so I sold it. If I had known that the book was so precious, I wouldn't dare even if I gave me ten courage."

She said and cried, looking very regretful.

Zhou Sheng was so angry that he didn't know what to say, so he sold the book for only 200 yuan. You should know that for those who know the knowledgeable, it may not be willing to sell it for 20,000 yuan.

"Who did you sell to? Give me the contact information of that person."

There is no way. Now is not the time to worry about Li Yan, so I should hurry up and find the book back.

But since that person recognized the book, he naturally knew the value of the book. After buying it from Li Yan, he might not be able to return the book easily.

Only then did Li Yan tremble and hand over the contact information of the friend to Zhou Sheng.

"Madam, I know so much. Can you forgive me?"

"How to forgive me?"

Zhou Sheng was angry. After doing such a bad thing, he dared to ask for forgiveness. What did he do when he steals things?

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, but still expressed her thoughts.

"My family is not in good condition, and I finally found such a good job. Please don't fire me, gentleman, as I will never make such a mistake again in the future."

If she hadn't been short of money, she wouldn't have sold the book.

Although a book may not be worth much, it is the owner's thing after all. She knows in her heart that the primary condition for their work is to be clean.

She couldn't help it at that time.

Zhou Sheng's face was very cold and his voice was also cold, "I won't let you go now. Even if I want to leave, I have to wait until I find the book back."

No, it should be the one who found Qi Yunyan’s book.

"That--"

What Li Yan wanted to say was that if the book was found, would she be forgiven? But she didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, she was wrong first.

It would be best if Zhou Sheng and Qi Heng could keep her without grudges, but if they were still driven out in the end, there would be nothing they could do.
