Bai Yun knew that he was guilty. He touched the bridge of his nose and did not continue to disturb Cui Lin.
“Alright, hurry up and settle your red wine matter.”
Cui Lin looked like he was watching a good show. He did not plan to remind Bai Yun directly. In the end, he was the only one who was kept in the dark. Wasn’t it fun?
Cui Lin gritted his teeth when he thought of what had just happened. He had to take revenge.
Only then did Bai Yun remember the key reason why he had called the Manager over. His expression immediately turned cold.
“This matter must be investigated to the end. Give me an explanation. You should know what the consequences of provoking me will be, right?”
Unlike the expression he had when he was fooling around with Cui Lin, Bai Yun did not have the good expression he had when facing the Manager.
The Manager thought that this matter could be resolved, but seeing this, he could only call the person who delivered the wine over.
The person who delivered the wine was a very young boy. He was suddenly called over with a terrified expression. Although he only knew the Manager, he had been repeatedly reminded that the person in the private room was not simple.
He stood nervously beside the Manager and called out to him softly.
The Manager glared at him. Then, he looked at Bai Yun obsequiously. “Young Master Bai, I’ve brought him here for you…”
Bai Yun looked at the uneasy boy. He didn’t know much about wine, but he knew people very well.
Although there was fear in the boy’s eyes, there was no guilt at all. This person was most likely not the culprit.
At this moment, Gu Man said at the right time, “Manager, Bai Yun handed this matter to you to resolve, not for you to bring the person over here for him to investigate.”
When Bai Yun heard this, he immediately understood. That’s right. He clearly asked the Manager to pursue the matter to the end. Why did he ask him to ask?
The Manager’s thoughts were seen through clearly. He immediately hated Gu Man, but he did not dare to show it on his face. “I’ll go check the surveillance cameras now.”
After saying this, the Manager patted the shoulder of the person who delivered the wine. “Go to the cabinet and get another bottle of red wine to send to Young Master Bai as an apology.”
The boy nodded uneasily and quickly walked out of the private room.
The private room fell silent again. Bai Yun touched his chin and said thoughtfully, “He doesn’t look like someone who would do such a thing. Could it be that my father really gave it to the wrong person?”
Although it was only a low voice, the others still heard it.
How could Cui Lin let go of the opportunity to mock Bai Yun? He slapped him on the shoulder.
“Look at your pig brain. Even if that person isn’t, it’s such a long journey. Isn’t it enough for others to tamper with?”
Bai Yun did not look enlightened when he heard this. Instead, he looked at Cui Lin suspiciously. “No, you’re so sure. Do you think they must have done this?”
Cui Lin revealed a profound expression and subconsciously glanced at Xiang Yin and Gu Man.
“Of course. If you beg me, I’ll tell you the truth.”
He revealed a smug expression and looked forward to Bai Yun’s next performance. However, how could Bai Yun let him have his way? He rolled his eyes. No matter how stupid he was, he could tell that something was wrong.
“So the three of you already knew who did it, right? You’re lying to me here. Second Master Xiang, you can’t be like this.”
Bai Yun complained about the dissatisfaction in his heart. Seeing him like this, the smile on Cui Lin’s face widened.
“If you hadn’t said that tonight, 1 might have told you about it, but there’s no chance now. Take your time to figure it out. With the Manager’s attitude, I’m afraid he won’t be able to give you any results tonight.”
Hearing this, Bai Yun ignored him and turned to look at Xiang Yin. “Second Master
Xiang, Miss Gu, are you planning to hide it from me with this person?”
“My hands are short.”
Almost at the same time, they spoke in unison.
Xiang Yin and Gu Man had an exceptional tacit understanding. They looked at each other and smiled tacitly.
“What good things can Cui Lin have? 1 can give you whatever he can.. 1 just want to cut the person who stole the wine into pieces now!”
