Chapter 200 Nana’s Betrayal
Chapter 200: Chapter 200 Nana’s Betrayal
The Sun Family’s house covered a broad area, with over twenty rooms.
After discarding the rooms that obviously weren’t Sun Wenbin’s bedroom, Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan searched for half an hour before finally confirming which one belonged to Sun Wenbin.
"Behind the wall, the safe..."
Qiao Yi mumbled Andy’s last words, tapping along the three walls to try to find the one hiding the safe.
Fortunately, Sun Wenbin didn’t have many tricks up his sleeve in his own bedroom, and finally, a hollow echo came from behind the headboard’s painting.
Impatient, Qiao Yi resorted to brute force, tearing a hole through the wall behind the painting in no time at all.
"There really is a safe!"
A safe the size of a human head appeared before them. Glancing at its keypad lock, Qiao Yi hastily pulled out her phone and brought up her chat with Andy.
"Andy said that the string of digits she had sent was the combination for the safe!"
Whenever Qiao Yi thought of Andy, a pang of pain shot through her heart.
If Andy were to wake up, she would surely be relieved to see her wish fulfilled. After this, the Sun Group would never be able to make a comeback!
The safe opened to reveal not treasures, but stacks of documents and two thick kraft paper bags.
Qiao Yi sifted through the documents, growing more and more shocked and chilled with each page she turned.
"We can’t hand these things over to the police just yet. If they got their hands on this, the Sun Group would be obliterated in an instant! We must find evidence of the Sun Group’s collaboration with the Dirk Group!"
While the contents could prove collaboration between the Sun Group and Jenfors, they did not demonstrate that the Sun Group’s smuggling was done in partnership with the Dirk Group.
"Andy also mentioned a desk, we just don’t know which desk she was referring to."
Every desk in the Sun Family’s study had been searched thoroughly, leaving only the desks at the company.
"Let’s head to the Sun Tower; it must be her own desk that Andy was talking about! Let’s go now!"
After informing the police to join them in rounding up the Sun Family members, they had come to the Sun Family residence. As for the Sun Tower, it should have already been sealed off by now.
Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan rushed directly to the Sun Tower, and just as Qiao Yi suspected, the desk Andy mentioned turned out to be her own.
Qiao Yi nearly dismantled the desk before finding a false bottom in Andy’s desk drawer, retrieving a thin file envelope from within.
"Beep beep beep—"
Before Qiao Yi could open the envelope to check the contents, her phone rang. It was a call from home.
"Nana is injured? I’ll be right there!"
Qiao Yi hung up and, without waiting to explain, grabbed Lu Yanchuan and ran outside. It wasn’t until they got into the car that Qiao Yi could explain what had happened.
"Aunt Zhao said Nana accidentally fell down the stairs. She was taking Nana to the hospital, but Nana kept crying to see me."
Lu Yanchuan looked at the worry on Qiao Yi’s face. He felt there was something strange about the situation, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
Under Qiao Yi’s urging, the twenty-minute drive was cut to ten. Qiao Yi dashed from the car all the way back home, where Nana, her head iced, was being cajoled by Aunt Zhao for a hospital visit.
"Nana, your sister is back. Let your sister see where you are hurt!"
Nana’s little face was tear-streaked. Qiao Yi set aside the things in her arms, about to reach out to Nana when she noticed Nana retreat in fear.
Qiao Yi paused and followed Nana’s gaze, then she noticed for the first time that she was covered in blood. It must have come from the Sun Family’s basement without her knowning.
"Nana, be good, sister will change her clothes then take Nana to the hospital, okay? Nana is the bravest!"
Qiao Yi soothingly comforted Nana’s emotions, got up and pulled Lu Yanchuan upstairs.
"Go change your clothes quickly. You have blood on you too. Don’t scare the child."
Lu Yanchuan was reluctantly pushed up the stairs by Qiao Yi. Turning his head, he saw Nana pouting and staring at the documents Qiao Yi carelessly threw on the table.
"I feel that there’s something off about Nana today."
"What can be off with a little kid? Quick, change clothes and taking her to the hospital is what we should be doing."
Qiao Yi quickly changed her clothes and urged Lu Yanchuan to rush downstairs with her.
"Where’s Nana? Aunt Zhao, where did Nana go?"
There was no one in the living room. After Qiao Yi called out, Aunt Zhao came out of the kitchen with a glass of orange juice in her hand.
"Right after you went upstairs, Nana said she wanted some orange juice, so I went to get it for her. In just a blink, where could she have run off to? I’ll go look for her right away!"
"There’s no need to look, she already ran off."
Lu Yanchuan’s voice came from behind the two of them. Qiao Yi turned around and saw Lu Yanchuan walking to the coffee table and beginning to look through the documents they brought back.
"Ran off? What do you mean?"
Qiao Yi didn’t catch on, or maybe she already thought of something but just didn’t want to admit it.
Although Lu Yanchuan didn’t want to shatter the nice illusions in Qiao Yi’s heart, the reality was undeniable, and she couldn’t continue deceiving herself.
"Nana is from Dirk Group. She approached you with a purpose. By placing Nana by your side, she took away the evidence of the collaboration between Sun Group and Dirk Group. All of this was premeditated."
Qiao Yi’s expression went from shock and disbelief to calm and as still as the water’s surface. Lu Yanchuan was somewhat worried, afraid that she couldn’t handle the fact that Nana had betrayed her.
But Lu Yanchuan still underestimated Qiao Yi.
"I understand. Nana, a little girl, won’t be able to run far. Have everyone start searching immediately; we must find her."
Even if Qiao Yi was again gentle and kind, after experiencing a kidnapping, she wouldn’t lack the necessary vigilance.
Nana was an accident, and it was just too coincidental that the number An Wei gave her was the same as the one she got in Guang City for her cellphone. If this didn’t raise Qiao Yi’s guard, then she might as well just give up on life.
Although Qiao Yi didn’t want to be too cautious around a little girl, she couldn’t help it when Nana always did the most inappropriate things at the most inappropriate times.
Like always appearing beside her and Lu Yanchuan when they were discussing important matters.
Or like always staying in her room alone.
Qiao Yi just never wanted to think so badly of a child.
"Nana took the document from Andy’s office."
"She took only a few blank sheets of paper. I just wanted to test Nana this way, but I didn’t expect that she would actually be a little undercover agent. Dirk Group sure has its ways, even using a child!"
Qiao Yi was furious, not just because of Nana’s betrayal, but also because of Dirk Group’s unscrupulous methods!
"Blank sheets?"
Lu Yanchuan flipped through the papers again, indeed not finding the file that was taken from the desk.
Qiao Yi sighed, found a kraft paper bag from a pile of documents, and pulled out a stack of papers.
"I had switched them in the car while reviewing the documents. It was just a precaution, I didn’t expect..."
