I had placed an informant in the company, a clever young man named A Kai. He often pretended to be indifferent to everything, yet he always managed to catch crucial information. He was like my shadow, faithfully reporting every move of Lin Hai. Recently, Lin Hai's behavior had become increasingly strange; he frequently visited high-end clubs and held private meetings with various individuals, his demeanor always tinged with an almost imperceptible tension.
I noticed that one of the people Lin Hai was in close contact with was none other than the second son of our rival family, Zhao Tianyu. The two had always been at odds, yet now they were meeting privately on a regular basis, which made me suspect that something was amiss. Had they reached some sort of agreement? Or were they plotting something sinister? A chill crept up from my feet, and an ominous premonition enveloped me.
I rummaged through my belongings, searching for any relics left by my mother, hoping to find some clues. Finally, in a long-forgotten wooden box, I discovered a yellowed photograph. In it, my mother wore a gentle smile, nestled beside a man I had never seen before. This man was not my father. As I examined the photo closely, I suddenly noticed something hidden on the back. Gently lifting the photograph, I read a neat inscription: "The ledger is in the old place."
The old place? Which old place? Fragments of childhood memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother often took me to play at an old house in the countryside, a property left by her ancestors that had fallen into disrepair over the years. Could it be that the "old place" she mentioned was that very house?
With this thought in mind, I immediately drove to the old house in the countryside. It was already in ruins, overgrown with weeds, as if it were a corner forgotten by the world. Cautiously stepping inside, I was met with a musty odor. Following the path etched in my memory, I arrived at the backyard where an old locust tree stood. Beneath it, I discovered a loose stone slab. With effort, I moved it aside and uncovered a rusty iron box.
My heart began to race as excitement and anxiety intertwined within me. Trembling, I opened the box to find a thick ledger lying quietly inside. Flipping through its pages revealed rows of numbers and records that sent chills down my spine. This ledger documented all of Lin Hai's financial dealings over the years, including his embezzlement of family assets and forgery related to Relative's Family Business.
I felt dizzy as if the entire world was collapsing before my eyes. I couldn't believe that my once-respected uncle was such a despicable person. Struggling against the pain and anger swelling within me, I copied down the contents of the ledger and carefully stored the original.
I knew there had to be greater forces behind Lin Hai; I needed to be more cautious to protect myself and bring them to justice. I began devising a plan to expose Lin Hai's crimes at the Family Meeting.
I reached out to our family's lawyer, a young woman named Su Qing. She had bright, clear eyes that reflected determination and integrity. I recounted my ordeal to her and handed over a copy of the ledger. Su Qing listened intently, her gaze filled with sympathy and concern. She promised to do her best to help me and expressed her belief that I could overcome all obstacles.
A sense of warmth and hope filled me; amidst the darkness, it felt as though I could see a glimmer of light. I knew a storm was brewing on the horizon, but I was ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. I would seek justice for my mother and reclaim everything that belonged to me.
