The waiter’s words suddenly sounded in the hall. The shopkeeper was so shocked that he forgot about the abacus.

Even the guests who were originally sitting there chatting and resting turned to look at him in shock.

The shopkeeper walked out from behind the counter without a word and asked anxiously, “What did you say just now? What happened? What do you mean by the prefecture magistrate has been arrested and the Xin residence has been raided?”

“Yes, yes. What happened?”

“The Xin family? Our Wanqing Prefecture’s hundred-year-old clan was actually raided?”

A customer stood up and walked over in disbelief.

The waiter was still in shock and his words were a little ethereal. “1,1 don’t know either. Just now, when I went home to get my things, I walked to the street at the entrance of the Xin residence and saw many soldiers guarding it. The plaque of the Xin residence was also smashed down by those soldiers. All the servants in the residence were taken away. Then, a long row of people were escorted away. All of them lowered their heads and cried.”

“What about the old and young masters of the Xin family?”

The waiter shook his head vigorously. “No, I don’t know. I heard that they’re still in the residence and haven’t come out. Someone even said that they might have been killed by those soldiers on the spot. Not long after, I heard someone run over and say that the prefecture magistrate’s office was also surrounded by soldiers. The prefecture magistrate’s family has been arrested. I don’t know what’s going on.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard that. The shopkeeper slapped his thigh. “No wonder there have been many people in the prefecture city recently. I knew something big would happen. As expected. But this matter is too big. I don’t even dare to think about it.”

The waiter finally came back to his senses and nodded repeatedly when he heard the shopkeeper’s words. “I also heard that these soldiers were transferred over from elsewhere. All of them are unfamiliar fierce faces. They’re too terrifying. I originally wanted to go to the entrance of the Xin residence to ask around, but I didn’t dare to and ran back.”

“So, did anyone say what they did?”

The waiter shook his head sadly. ” I don’ t know.”

Gu Yundong was still standing on the stairs and listening. Xue Rong was standing behind her at some point. He looked a little agitated and his eyes were slightly red.

“Miss…”

Gu Yundong turned to look at him. Xue Rong tried his best to smile. “Miss, you actually did it.”

The Xin family was such a colossus. Their power was magnificent and they had the backing of the prefecture magistrate and the high officials in the capital.

But now, in just half a month, not only had their home been raided, but even the forces behind them had been uprooted.

Xue Rong thought that if it wasn’t for the fact that he was afraid of attracting too much attention outside, he would have knelt down on the spot and kowtowed to the Miss.

Gu Yundong smiled. “Let’s go and take a look.”

“Yes.”

Xue Rong shook his hand and a smile finally appeared on his face. He followed Gu Yundong downstairs.

Tong Shuitao, who was standing upstairs, glared at his back fiercely. This Xue Rong must have ulterior motives. He must be a toad lusting after swan meat. He was clearly bought to serve the old master, but he kept approaching Miss. He was simply shameless. Miss had been deceived by him.

She was so angry!!!

Tong Shuitao kept staring at his figure as he disappeared from the door. Only then did she stomp her feet angrily and turn around to return to her room.

The rain outside had stopped, and even the air felt wet.

Gu Yundong and Xue Rong walked all the way to the Xin family. Many people were talking about this along the way.

Especially not far from the Xin family, everyone was pointing at the place.

However, there were soldiers guarding the door, so no one dared to go forward.

When they saw Gu Yundong and her servant walking forward, they looked at her as if she was courting death.
