By the time Hu Wen had parked his car in front of the villa's entrance, the sky had already completely darkened.

As soon as the car stopped, Yin Yeyue pushed open the door and got out. Without looking back, she said, "Uncle Gu, I'm tired. I'm going upstairs to rest."

But before she could take more than a few steps, a large hand suddenly grabbed her from behind.

The expression on the face of the young noble was ugly, his tone sounded somewhat stiff, "Why are you so unsatisfied with me?"

He felt that there was some kind of misunderstanding between him and Caiyue. If he didn't find a chance to explain himself, then the misunderstanding would continue to exist.

"How could I possibly be dissatisfied with Uncle Gu?"

Yin Yanyue smiled mockingly, looking back at him, "Uncle Gu, you're the famous fifth brother of the upper class diamond king, how could I not be satisfied?"

Her sarcastic tone made the expression on the viscount's face even more unsightly. She might as well speak the truth so that he could clearly understand what had happened between them.

Seeing that the situation wasn't looking good, Hu Wen immediately interjected in a low voice, "CEO, if there's nothing else, I'll get off work first."

Without waiting for a reply from the young lord, he started the car and drove out of the villa.

The sound of the car's engines getting farther and farther away...

The only ones left in the front yard were Yin Xianyue and Young Viscount Gong. They looked at each other in silence. They clearly didn't say anything, but the surrounding air became colder and colder.

Aunt Wang's voice broke the deadlock. "Mr. Gong, Miss Yin, have you had dinner?"

Yin Yanyue turned her head to look at Aunt Wang. She was about to reply that she had no appetite and didn't want to eat anymore.

But before she could say anything, the viscount spoke first, "Not eating, open two bottles of red wine."

Two bottles of red wine?

Could it be that he wanted to say the truth after drinking too much tonight?

Aunt Wang couldn't help but be startled. In her memory, Mister Gong never drank wine at home.

Although she felt it was strange, she didn't say anything. She only replied in a low voice before turning around to get some wine.

"Uncle Gu, you don't need to waste your energy anymore."

Yin Yanyue let out a sigh, her face was full of impatience. "I'm tired."

Saying so, she turned around and prepared to leave. No matter what the viscount wanted to say, she decided to return to her room to rest.

A low and deep roar came from behind him, "Gong Yaoyue!"

Her footsteps paused, and her face instantly darkened. She couldn't help but raise her voice, "My surname is Yin!"

Fifteen years ago, she had decided that she would never be surnamed Gong again. She would never admit that she was a member of the palace, and her only surname would be Yin.

Ever since she was young, she had wanted to do one thing: to escape from this place, to escape from everyone here, and to restart her own life.

But for fifteen years, she could not escape.

Now that she was sick and there wasn't much time left, she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to live for herself.

As long as she caught the killer for her father, she would leave immediately and go anywhere, just to find a beautiful country to spend the rest of her life in.

He opened his mouth, "If you think that I'm getting close to you for the sake of the Palace Group, for the sake of the family's property, then I can sign a contract with you to ensure that we won't touch any of the family's property after marriage."

He said it as if it was true, even Yin Yanyue almost believed him.

But she knew too well that when they were married, the Palace Group would no longer be the Palace Group, and the Young Master would transfer all the Palace property to her name.

At that time, the so-called contract in her hands was just a piece of scrap paper.

"There's no point in saying this now."

Yin Yanyue's face was filled with fatigue, she didn't want to waste too much time with the young noble.

It was a huge blow to her to suddenly learn that her stomach cancer had returned, and she needed time to accept the fact.

She walked through the door without looking back and headed for the second floor.

When they reached the living room, Aunt Wang suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way. She said in all seriousness, "Miss Yin, the wine is ready."

Aunt Wang could see that there were some matters between the two of them. She believed that if they fought, they should talk it out in front of each other, so she wanted to give them a chance to talk.

However, it was clear that Yin Yanyue didn't want to be like her. He bypassed her and said, "I don't want to drink."

She didn't have any appetite, she didn't want to drink, she didn't want to eat, she just wanted to go back to her room and lie down.

This time, the viscount didn't stop her again, only silently following her all the way to her room's entrance.

Yin Yanyue stopped in her tracks. She suddenly remembered something when she was standing at the door of her room.

A few days ago, she had already moved into the palace. Now, she didn't even have a single room of her own.

"Crack …"

Behind her, the young noble Palace took the initiative to push open the door for her, "If you want to rest alone tonight, then sleep in this room."

Yin Chengyue was surprised, he didn't expect Young Master Gong to let her sleep in her own room.

Surprised as she was, there was no hesitation in her legs as she stepped into the room.

Just as she was about to close the door, the silhouette of the viscount barged into her room.

Yin Yanyue frowned and his tone turned cold, "Get out!"

The viscount turned a deaf ear to her words and walked to the makeup table. He reached under the table and took out a black USB stick.

"I've never seen the contents of this USB drive."

He raised the USB in his hand in front of Yin Yanyue with a serious look on his face. "I don't know what exactly this is about, but I can guess that it's important to you and me."

He had discovered that Yin Chengyue was hiding such a USB drive a long time ago. For the past month, he had a lot of time and opportunity to steal this USB drive and see clearly what was inside.

But he never intended to.

He wanted to wait.

Waiting for the day when Yin Yanyue would take the initiative to tell him, waiting for the day when Yin Yanyue trusted him.

But today, he suddenly understood. If he continued to wait like this, he would only be able to lose his color of the moon and not get anything.

Perhaps this unremarkable USB drive was an important factor in their relationship.

"You're thinking too much."

Yin Yanyue was relieved. His face was surprisingly calm. "This thing isn't important. It's just information about my previous work."

When she saw him take out the USB, her mind tightened, but after a few seconds she calmed down.

After some careful consideration, she had copied the video from the USB drive. Even if the viscount saw the video now and wanted to destroy the evidence, she would have thousands of ways to retrieve the video and send him to jail in the end.

She had always believed that there was always a reward for evil, and that there was always a reward for good.

The viscount couldn't escape.
