"Snapped!"
A sudden crisp sound instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Wang Paner, who was being stared at by everyone, gave an unnatural smile.
"It's all my fault. I was clumsy and knocked the bowl over."
Xu Yao glanced at her but said nothing. Instead, he gently told her not to touch the porcelain pieces on the floor and let Aunt Zhao clean them up.
Seeing that she had gotten away with it, Wang Pan'er breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she stared at Sun Shan with hatred in her eyes.
When she was discovered by Sun Shan when she sneaked into the study, she was worried for several days at first, fearing that Sun Shan would complain.
However, the calmness of the past few days has made her relax her vigilance.
Who would have thought that just when she thought the matter was over, Sun Shan actually exposed the matter in front of everyone at the dinner table!
And he also said that he saw a figure last night!
She clearly didn't leave her room last night! What on earth was Sun Shan planning to do?
No matter what he wants to do, the most important thing now is to cover this matter up.
Wang Pan'er rolled her eyes and said in a nonchalant tone, "Ashan, are you too sensitive?"
"It's so late at night when you get up to go to the bathroom, so you're bound to be groggy. Maybe that was just the shadow of the tree outside the window!"
"After all, our military compound is the safest place. How could anyone do something sneaky here?"
Sun Shan smiled in relief upon hearing this, looking as if he had been convinced.
"That's possible. Maybe I saw it wrong."
Wang Pan'er was delighted when she heard that Sun Shan actually agreed with her.
Just as he was about to find another topic to completely change the subject, he heard Xu Yao's disapproving voice.
"I actually think Ah Shan did the right thing. In my position, it's always better to be cautious!"
"Although there are fewer spies these days, there might still be some that slip through the net."
"If any national information were to be leaked from me and cause an impact, it would be a huge event!"
"I'll go to the study and check the situation now!"
After Xu Yao finished speaking, he gave Sun Shan a look of approval and hurried upstairs.
Just after Xu Yao entered the study, Wang Paner could no longer bear it, and lowered her voice with a dark face.
"Sun Shan, what on earth do you want to do? It's just a small matter, why are you holding on to it like a dog?"
"I'm just a cheap son-in-law of the family! I tell you, even if you want to earn a reputation, don't think of stepping on me to get to the top!"
Wang Pan'er glared at Sun Shan fiercely. If looks could kill, Sun Shan would have died on the spot.
However, although Wang Pan'er was angry, it was mainly because of Sun Shan's behavior of complaining to gain recognition. She was not nervous at all about Xu Yao's inspection in the study.
After all, she had never actually entered Xu Yao's study, so how could anything be lost there!
She was just dissatisfied with her performance just now. Because she was too surprised by Sun Shan's sudden complaint, she not only overturned the bowl, but also said something that was completely opposite to Xu Yao's point of view.
She knew very well that if she wanted to be Mrs. Xu, she had to be sensible about the overall situation, and most importantly, her thoughts and ideas had to be in sync with Xu Yao's in order to be a good official wife.
If I had known earlier, no matter when, marrying into a wealthy family is actually just the beginning.
Whether your position is stable or whether you will be kicked out depends on how you behave.
Her behavior just now obviously detracted from her points, but because of the baby in her belly, Xu Yao didn't say much.
The reason why she has always been generous and gentle and kind to everyone in the Xu family is to avoid being treated as a canary in a cage.
Seeing Wang Paner's eyes, Xu Yue next to Sun Shan was the first to react.
She seemed to be frightened by Wang Paner's eyes. She pulled Sun Shan's arm, shrank back, and spoke haltingly.
"Mom, mom, don't be mean to Brother Ashan, Ayue is scared!"
Because Xu Yao has been particularly concerned about Xu Yue recently and Wang Pan'er was afraid that she would let the cat out of the bag in front of Xu Yao, she quickly put on a smile.
"Ayue misunderstood, Mom is not angry!"
"I was just joking with your brother Ashan, right!"
After Wang Pan'er finished speaking, she was too lazy to watch Sun Shan coaxing the fool. She rolled her eyes and planned to go to the kitchen to make a cup of honey water.
Although she was afraid that Xu Yue would complain, she was not afraid that Sun Shan would talk nonsense.
After all, Xu Mingxuan is Sun Shan's son after all, so even if Sun Shan really said something about her.
She just needs to insist that Sun Shan deliberately instigated the incident for the benefit of his own children.
However, just as she turned around with confidence, she heard a door closing and footsteps coming from upstairs.
When she looked up, she saw Xu Yao standing at the stairs with an angry look on his face.
"Sure enough, something is missing! This is outrageous!"
After Xu Yao finished speaking, he slapped the railing with a crisp sound, and it was obvious that he was extremely angry!
Wang Pan'er was stunned and stared at Sun Shan in disbelief.
Something really was lost in the study?!
Could it be that some spy really sneaked in yesterday?
That's not right. She clearly didn't hear anything yesterday!
The spy was able to sneak in quietly today. Will no one notice him next time even if he runs in and kills someone?
Is it true that in this world, even the military compound is not safe?
Wang Paner felt a chill on her back.
Before she could say anything, she heard Sun Shan ask the question.
"Dad, is it really a spy? Is the lost thing important? Otherwise, we should report it immediately!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yao stopped him a little excitedly.
"No! You can't report it!"
"Actually, what was lost wasn't anything important. You're not allowed to tell anyone about this except our family. Do you understand?"
The reason why Xu Yao disagreed to report it was because after searching in the study just now, he found that everything else was there, except the gold bars and money he had kept secretly.
It was really hard to put into words what he had lost, otherwise he would not be able to explain why he had so much money at home when he only earned a little over 100 yuan a month.
This is obviously a silent loss!
Xu Yao sat on the sofa with a bad look on his face. After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked up.
"No! If it was really an outsider who came to steal things, they wouldn't go straight to the study!"
"Also, my study is locked. If someone breaks in, it's impossible for them to enter quietly. There will be some noise."
"So, I suspect it's an inside job!"
When Xu Yao said this, he looked meaningfully at everyone in the room one by one.
The room was very quiet for a moment, and everyone looked at each other.
Xu Yao pondered for a moment and asked Sun Shan to find Mrs. Zhao in the backyard.
