    Chapter 101: She Has Six Treasures

    Chen Yu, keenly listening to Zhou Tian's words, knew well that the "family treasures" he referred to were actually Leng Xi Yue's six children.

    But Gong Xinyi hadn't authorized him to reveal this, so he dared not disclose it to Madame Gong.

    Madame Gong grew impatient as Chen Yu remained silent, "Butler Chen, do you know the real background of Leng Xi Yue? Who is she, exactly? What kind of background and support does she have?"

    "Her... her background is quite extraordinary. However, without Mr. Gong's permission, I can't just divulge that," Chen Yu thought to himself, amused, knowing that Leng Xi Yue's "background" was essentially his employer.

    "How much do you want to spill the beans?" Madame Gong's face darkened, thinking Chen Yu was angling for a bribe with this secret.

    "I'm not the kind to be swayed by money," Chen Yu replied with dignity, "I can speak anytime, as long as Mr. Gong gives the okay."

    "Such a loyal dog!" Madame Gong spat out in anger.

    Her cold gaze swept over the household staff and suddenly landed on a familiar face, her expression softening as she pointed at a tall maid, "You, come here. Tell me everything you know about Leng Xi Yue."

    The tall maid stepped forward excitedly, "Madame Gong, Leng Xi Yue has six..."

    "Cough cough!" Chen Yu coughed loudly, his stern gaze warning the tall maid that speaking out of turn would lead to dire consequences.

    The tall maid, fearing the hundreds of terrifying slaps, immediately stopped speaking, covering her face and looking pitifully at Madame Gong.

    "Six what? Speak!" Madame Gong commanded coldly.

    "Six treasures," the tall maid said, her voice trembling as she glanced at Chen Yu.

    "What kind of six treasures?" Madame Gong demanded, her face stern.

    "I... I only know this much, I don't know anything else," the tall maid found Chen Yu's expression extremely cold and dared not continue.

    "What happened to your face? Who hit you?" Madame Gong feigned concern as she touched the tall maid's face, "Tell me, and I'll stand up for you!"

    "I hit myself," the tall maid said, bowing her head deeply.

    "Indeed, she hit herself, but it was at the young master's command," Chen Yu explained, "because she showed disrespect to the owner of the six treasures."

    "The owner of the six treasures? Leng Xi Yue... or Gong Xinyi?" Madame Gong narrowed her shrewd eyes.

    "It's Young Master Gong," Chen Yu replied. After all, the six adorable children are Gong Xinyi's daughters, and he wasn't wrong.

    "Oh, I see now," Zhou Tian said, as if understanding, "Grandma, so the six family heirlooms of Leng Xi Yue, after being taken back by my cousin, made him the new owner of the six treasures. This maid must have had designs on the treasures, and as their new master, my cousin would naturally be angry. Punishment is only fair."

    "She got what she deserved!" Madame Gong glared fiercely at the tall maid, then scanned the crowd again.

    Spotting the family doctor with a medicine box, she asked sharply, "What are you doing with that? Were you bandaging Leng Xi Yue? Has she been here?"

    "No, I was applying medicine," the family doctor casually opened the medicine box, took out ointment and a cotton swab, and started applying it to the tall maid's face.

    Madame Gong had a strong hunch that the family doctor wasn't telling her the whole truth.

    She said coldly, "You better tell me what you know, or else I'll find a new doctor for Xinyi."

    The family doctor panicked, and the cotton swab fell to the ground.

    Chen Yu said, "Young Master Gong won't change the family doctor, because he hasn't done anything wrong."

    Madame Gong sneered, "Does this have anything to do with making a mistake? If I made him choose between the assistant and the family doctor to keep only one, who do you think he would choose? If he chooses you, does that mean we need a new family doctor?

    But if I make him choose between the CEO position and the assistant, who do you think he would choose?"
