When the two of them went downstairs, they happened to see Qiqi and Linlin following Butler Zhang in. The three of them were wearing sportswear and looked like they had just gone out for exercise or to run.
When the three of them saw Tang Li, they stopped and greeted her at the same time.
âGood morning, Master and Madam.â
âGood morning, Master.â
Tang Li looked at them and asked, âWhere did you guys go?â
âWe went running with Uncle Zhang,â Linlin replied.
Butler Zhang wanted to put in a good word for the two little ones in front of them so that Master and Madam would like them more, so he added, âI didnât expect Young Master and Miss to be so good at running. They were able to catch up with me and not feel tired.â
Tang Li looked at Qiqi and Linlin and talked to them through voice transmission, âLooks like you guys still show your power.â
Linlin said proudly, âOf course. We look like humans now, so we definitely canât use our power. Besides, I donât wanna scare Uncle Zhang because he gives me delicious food.â
Tang Li smiled and nodded at Butler Zhang. âButler Zhang, thank you for taking care of them.â
âItâs nothing. Itâs what I should do.â
After they finished speaking, Qi Yihan suddenly added, âQiqi and Linlin, when you go back with us to the Qi Mansion, you donât have to call us Master and First Master.â
âWhat should we call you then?â The two little ones looked at him.
Butler Zhang, who was standing there, shouted in his heart, âOf course, Father and Mother!â
Qi Yihan thought for a moment and said, âCall us godfather and godmother.â
Tang Li nodded in agreement.
Butler Zhang felt bad for the two little ones.
Qiqi and Linlin did not mind at all.
The two of them immediately called out, âGodfather, Godmother.â
Butler Zhang, who was standing at the side, had mixed feelings.
At this moment, Butler Yang came in.
Qi Yihan said to him, âButler Yang, letâs talk.â
Then, he walked towards the sofa.
Butler Yang followed.
Tang Li thought for a moment and followed suit.
Butler Zhang took the two little ones out. âYoung Master Qiqi, Miss Linlin, letâs go out and play for a while. Master and Butler Yang have something important to discuss. Letâs not disturb them.â
The two of them nodded and followed him out.
Qi Yihan was talking about Tang Li managing the Qi Mansion. He said, âSince Father has made Li manage the Qi Mansion, youâll be her assistant in the future. Iâll send you a professional financial team and some bodyguards. Most of the time, youâll be in charge, but if thereâs anything you canât handle, tell Li and me.â
Butler Yang remained calm even in the face of such a huge promotion. With a nod, he promised them, âMaster, Madam, donât worry. Iâll try my best to manage the mansion.â
Qi Yihan nodded and turned to Tang Li. âSince youâll be managing the mansion, I think we can move back today.â
âThen Iâll go over in the morning.â
âYeah.â
â¦
At the Qi Mansion.
Later, everyone knew that Tang Li would be the manager of the Qi Mansion and they started discussing.
At dawn in the morning, the three butlers working for the other three masters gathered together.
First Masterâs butler asked, âWhat do you think about Fourth Madam coming back to manage the Qi Mansion?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Second Masterâs butler said, âWhat else can we do? This is what Old Master said. We have to listen to his order.â
Third Masterâs butler said, âYes, weâre just employees. What else can we do?â
First Masterâs butler knew that the two of them were not telling the truth. At this moment, everyone knew that as long as Tang Li returned to take over the Qi Mansion, the butler of Fourth Master would also take over all the jobs. As First Masterâs butler, he had been using his position to receive bribes from many people who wanted to get to know the Qi family. If Fourth Masterâs butler came back to handle the house, he would definitely not be able to continue these nasty businesses.
Second Masterâs butler said, âBut I donât think we need to worry. I donât think Fourth Madam has the ability to manage such a big house, given how young she is.â
Third Masterâs butler added, âI think so too.â
First Masterâs butler sneered, âEven if she really doesnât have the ability to manage the house, do you think Fourth Master doesnât? Heâs the head of the family, and whatever Fourth Madam says, everyone has to obey. I think we are very close to packing up and leaving the house now.â
These words made the other two panic.
First Masterâs butler continued, âI think all of you did some kind of nasty deal with outsiders at some point, right? Donât deny it. Think about what Fourth Madam will punish you if she finds out about it.â
The other two were pale and looked like they were going to faint at any second.
They had indeed done some nasty things over the years. If Fourth Madam found out, they might potentially end up in jail.
âThen what should we do?â
âThe best thing for us to do now is to cooperate. Donât let Fourth Master find out anything. Some people and things need to be destroyed.â
âWill it be too late? Fourth Madam will come here this morning.â
âItâs not late. Now, go back and destroy the evidence. We can clean it up before Fourth Madam comes.â
âRight.â
After saying that, the three of them left.
Apart from the butlers, the mdams were almost in a panic.
Last night, First Madam waited for First Master until the middle of the night, but he didnât return. When she woke up in the morning, she saw that First Master was still sleeping. Normally, she wouldnât wake him up, but today, she had something urgent to tell him, so she pushed him.
But First Master didnât wake up.
She continued to push.
âYaohui, wake up. I have something important to discuss with you.â
Annoyed, First Master raised his hand and pushed her away.
First Madam was almost pushed to the floor. She flew into a rage and raised her voice, shouting, âYaohui, yesterday, Tang Li came back and said that Father wants her to manage the Qi Mansion.â
First Master said angrily, âWhat has this had anything to do with us men? Itâs your womanâs business.â
Hearing that, First Madam held back the boiling anger and said with a weirdly calm tone, âThen Iâll discuss something else with you. Yesterday, Fourth Sister-in-law and I talked about Lingxuan and Wenjingâs marriage, and she agreed. As long as you say the word, we can start preparing for the wedding.â
