Chapter 657 What proof do you need to show that he made you do it?

The butler was about to ask a question when he saw the person in the photo and stopped in his tracks.

That moment.

He froze.

His complexion visibly worsened, but he denied it, saying, "I don't know him, I've never seen him before."

"Think it through before you speak." Qin Mo exuded a cold aura.

The housekeeper insisted on his statement: "I really don't know him. How did you find out about this person? Why do you think I have anything to do with him?"

Qin Mo didn't speak, looking at him with cold eyes.

The air pressure was very low, and the butler was on the verge of breaking down, his back covered in cold sweat.

After a while.

Qin Mo stood up.

“Since I don’t know him, I have no choice but to hand him over to the police,” Qin Mo said, his words as cold as ever. “Given what he’s done, it wouldn’t be surprising if he gets a sentence of more than ten years. I just don’t know if he’ll implicate the person behind him in order to get a reduced sentence.”

He left after saying that.

They showed no intention of staying at all.

"Wait a minute!" the butler called out to him.

Qin Mo looked up.

The butler held his breath, his gaze towards Qin Mo becoming unfathomable: "Since Young Master already knows, why ask such a question?"

"Is this what you mean, or what Father means?" Qin Mo looked at him.

Butler: "Mine."

The head of the family said that this matter must not be known to a third person.

Even the eldest and second young masters are not allowed.

"Besides him, have you arranged for anyone else to target Jiang Ruan?" Qin Mo asked.

The butler hesitated slightly.

I'm struggling internally.

In the end, he lied: "No."

"I don't have time to waste here with you," Qin Mo said. "You said you would let bygones be bygones, but if I find out, you'll have to bear the consequences."

The butler remained defiant: "No."

Qin Mo: "Okay."

After saying that, he took out his phone and made a call, instructing the butler in front of him: "Check the person I just sent you carefully, focusing on whether he has been in contact with my father's butler. Give me the results within half an hour."

Upon hearing this...

The housekeeper's heart was pounding.

He was well aware of Qin Mo's abilities.

If he investigates, he'll definitely find out.

But... why did he trace it back to him? Did Zhou Yongcheng really implicate him?

"Someone will arrange for you to leave Haicheng in half an hour." Qin Mo put away his phone after making the call and said unhurriedly, "If what you just said is true, you will be treated as a normal retiree. If what you said is a lie, all your ill-gotten gains and resources will be confiscated, and all your connections in Haicheng will be cut off."

Upon hearing this, the butler immediately panicked: "Why?"

If his network of connections is also cut off, then he will really be just an ordinary person, and at that time, those people he offended in the past will definitely come knocking on his door.

He couldn't bear such an outcome.

Qin Mo did not answer him, but simply waited where he was.

Half an hour is neither a long nor a short time.

Qin Mo would answer a phone call every now and then, while the housekeeper watched anxiously from the side.

Although he made very thorough arrangements, and it was generally impossible to find his connection with those people, this person was, after all, Qin Mo, the president of the Qin Group and the future head of the Qin family.

His competence far surpasses that of Qin Muchuan.

It would be a lie to say I'm not worried.

Time passed quickly.

Less than half an hour later, Qin Mo's phone rang.

He was told everything over there. After listening to the whole story, Qin Mo's expression grew increasingly grim, and his gaze toward the butler was as cold as a knife.

They even dared to send people to target Sui Sui.

Is this person crazy?!

The butler felt a chill run down his spine from his gaze and shuddered.

Tell him directly that something happened.

"Wh...what's wrong..." the butler asked anxiously.

"I'll ask you one last time, is this your idea or my father's?" Qin Mo hung up the phone, his breath cold. "You'd better think it through before you speak."

The butler opened his mouth as if to say something to me.

But when she saw Qin Mo's icy gaze, her legs went weak involuntarily, and she finally told the truth: "You... Father."

Qin Mo's heart sank: "What did he tell you?"

"The patriarch said that if we still want to work for him, we should get rid of Jiang Ruan and the others," the steward couldn't help but say. "He also told me to be clean and not to let the investigation trace back to him."

Qin Mo's eyes were pitch black.

He hadn't expected that even after all this, his father still wouldn't stop.

Do they really feel that life outside is too comfortable?

"Young Master," the butler said, seeing that he was angry and not daring to provoke him, "I just want to stay in the Qin family, I have no other intentions."

"I'll give you ten minutes to pack your things. My men will take you out of Haicheng." Qin Mo's aura was slightly cold. "From now on, you have nothing to do with the Qin family. All the ill-gotten gains you've made will be confiscated, and all your resources will be cut off."

"Young Master!" the butler exclaimed anxiously.

Qin Mo stared at him: "Or perhaps you'd rather go to the police station for a visit."

The butler opened his mouth.

I don't know how to say it for a moment.

"Since you didn't cause any real harm this time, I won't pursue the matter," Qin Mo said. "After you leave Haicheng, change your number and don't contact my father again."

"But..." The butler didn't want to leave in such a sorry state.

If he leaves, he will be punished sooner or later.

Those he has offended will surely come after him.

He can't leave!

“If I find out you contacted us on your own initiative, I will tell Ning Jing everything you’ve done,” Qin Mo said. “By then, it will be too late for you to regret it.”

“Everything I did was at your father’s behest,” the butler said. “Aren’t you afraid I’ll implicate your father as well?”

"Whatever you want." Qin Mo didn't care at all.

Although he said that, he knew very well that the things the butler did were basically just him abusing his power. Given his father's personality, if there was anything to deal with, he would most likely let Luo Feng arrange it.

Upon hearing this...

The butler seemed to have lost all his strength.

"When did your father tell you this?" Qin Mo asked him one last question.

The butler hung his head, knowing he was truly finished: "When I went to see him last time, he told me this in secret."

"I understand." Qin Mo didn't stay any longer. "Go pack your things, they'll see you off."

"Doesn't the young master have any lingering affection?" The butler stared at him, making a final attempt to persuade him.

Qin Mo said, "If you really don't want to read it, then this matter won't be handled by me, but by Ning Jing."

“That would implicate your father as well,” the butler said.

"I have a million ways to extricate him from this and prove he has nothing to do with it." Qin Mo spoke ruthlessly, but it was the truth. "What proof do you have that he made you do it?"

The butler paused for a moment.

Only then did they realize that the head of the family hadn't called or sent a message about this matter.

Their only conversation was known only to them.

However, given what he and his son did in the past, his dismissal could very well be interpreted as him retaliating against the head of the family and deliberately framing Jiang Ruan.

Thinking about these things.

The butler was utterly heartbroken.

I know this time it's really over.
