Chapter 1337: Sharp‑tongued Arrogant Celebrity & Super‑Rich Insecure Wife 14

The door at the end of the hallway couldn't be opened from outside; the guest team was about to look for the key, when the sound of the door opening came from inside.

In the darkness any sound was especially crisp, but what came out was merely a servant of the manor.

The two servants acted as if they hadn't seen the guest team at all, each holding tea and chatting to themselves.

"The butler is feeling sad again over the young master's piano."

"Yeah, I even saw the butler secretly crying a couple days ago."

"How sad." The two sighed in unison and quickened their steps, leaving the hallway.

The guest team heard every word clearly; they entered the room, where the butler sat before the floor-standing piano, his fingers stroking the keys.

"Before... you loved playing the piano here the most."

"I can't hear it anymore; I'll never hear that piece you played again."

The butler stood up, stared at the guest team for a few seconds, "Did the detectives find this room?... Then go on, I won't disturb you."

After the butler left, the room's lights came back on.

Lin Cheng scratched his head, now emboldened by the light, "Could the butler be the lover? The more I think, the more possible it seems."

Bai Qing: "The clues don't match."

An Yun nodded, "Yeah, and we haven't found any evidence either."

Jin Chen: "Grab him and beat him up before asking."

Everyone: "……"

Xiang Xiaoyu whispered to Shen Shi, "Is Jin Chen always this violent at home?"

Shen Shi shook his head, chuckling low, "No, he's just joking."

〖Jin Chen's sudden teasing leaves you speechless……〗

〖Shen Shi's filter must be eight layers thick, or maybe it comes with built-in beauty smoothing. 〗

〖I also vote that the butler is the lover! 〗

Unlike the other luxurious rooms in the manor, this place feels cramped; the floor-standing piano sits in the only open space, surrounded on all sides by cabinets—a strange layout.

Xiang Xiaoyu opened two cabinets, found it a bit odd, turned and said, "This seems like a youth's room too; how can the style differ so much?"

Cheng Yi faced the camera and boldly guessed, "Could this actually be the lover's room?"

"Of course that's possible," Chu Yin agreed.

The guest team rummaged through the cabinets, but they were all misleading information; just analyzing them wasted a lot of time.

After more than ten minutes, Xiang Xiaoyu finally found useful information.

"Here!"

Xiang Xiaoyu discovered a letter in the piano's gap, "What a clever hiding place."

"Inside seems to be another love confession?"

When Xiang Xiaoyu read it aloud, she was still a bit unsure.

"Decipher the melody hidden in love, my dear, I want to hear you play that piece again."

Jin Chen leaned against the doorframe observing the room; seeing the other guests nearly finished searching the cabinets and still finding no clue about that sentence, he finally moved.

"Excuse me, let me through."

Chu Yin heard the sound, instinctively frowned, "There's no clue here; I've already searched."

Since Jin Chen came in, he hasn't really taken the initiative to look for clues; instead he's been wasting their time, and Chu Yin dislikes people who fish in troubled waters.

"If you want to look for clues, you can go to those cabinets that haven't been turned over yet."

"You talk too much," Jin Chen glanced at him, "Bad eyesight is forgivable, but so is poor manners."

Chu Yin: "……"

Jin Chen couldn't be bothered to say more, repeated the line, and seeing Chu Yin still unmoved,

He straightened his arm and wrenched open the cabinet door Chu Yin was leaning on; the force was so great it almost flung Chu Yin away.

"I advise you not to go too far." Chu Yin's wrist, flung out, hit the door handle; he gritted his teeth and warned Jin Chen in a low voice.

Shen Shi stood expressionless at his side, "What did you say?"

The protective Shen Shi's aura was colder than when facing subordinates; Chu Yin glanced at the room's camera, still not intending to reveal his identity, and merely smiled, "I've searched those spots—what else could he possibly dig up?"

Seeming like a joke, it actually slyly mocked Jin Chen for not taking clue‑searching seriously.

"All right… say a couple less," Cheng Yi pulled Chu Yin's arm, "Maybe Jin Chen has found something else."

〖Fight! Fight! 〗

〖Love seeing some marriage‑team protectiveness!! 〗

〖Obviously it's Jin Chen causing trouble; please, when you ship the candy, ship something tasty—what does it mean for Shen Shi to rely on his status to intimidate our little actors?? 〗

〖As long as Jin Chen is around, harmony is impossible…… can't he just get lost……〗

〖Holy shit, Jin Chen seems to have really found something!! 〗

Jin Chen's twisting revealed that only this cabinet door was detachable, and inside lay the puzzle they needed to decipher.

"Damn, your eyesight is amazing," Lin Cheng exclaimed in admiration, "The show can hide things too well."

An Yun couldn't help but mutter, "Besides Jin Chen, probably no one would think to detach the cabinet door."

Jin Chen gripped the half‑person‑high cabinet door with both hands, catching a glimpse of Chu Yin's embarrassed, annoyed expression,

He hid his face behind the door, peeking his eyes through the two holes—infuriating beyond words.

"Look at this cabinet door—doesn't it resemble an eye‑hospital testing device?"

Chu Yin: "……"

"Pfft…" Lin Cheng couldn't hold back, and also truly mindful of Chu Yin's streaming numbers, he forced his face to turn red, shoulders shaking against Xiang Xiaoyu.

Shen Shi watched Jin Chen's provocation with a smile, his eyes full of softness.

Jin Chen quietly leaned in to Shen Shi's ear, seemingly whispering, but in fact he wasn't avoiding Chu Yin at all—it's just that this line wasn't picked up by the camera.

Chu Yin's fans are going to scold me again.

Shen Shi: "It's fine, I'll handle it."

Only Jin Chen can have fun; the rest aren't problems.

Chu Yin's vision went dark, and he almost couldn't help cursing in front of the camera.

Lin Cheng stepped in again as the peacemaker: "Alright, alright, come look at this puzzle—it's pretty weird, I can't even figure it out."

Many sets of numbers were engraved on the inside of the cabinet, leaving everyone baffled.

The first four sets are respectively:, ，01||:: ||

The guests gathered together to discuss.

Bai Qing: "Sudoku?"

An Yun rubbed their palm: "Probably not; there are no weird symbols in Sudoku."

Xiang Xiaoyu pointed at the third set's symbol: "This is the repeat symbol in musical notation."

Lin Cheng was about to try playing it on the piano, then suddenly paused: "Hey, no, there are also 8 and 9 here, so it's not a simplified score."

Everyone fell into thought again.

Shen Shi originally thought it was some kind of international code, but as he silently recited the numbers, they didn't match any code he knew.

〖Start brain-burning, the first to blindly guess correctly is Shen Shi! 〗

〖I guess Chu Yin; this is a puzzle game, Shen Shi, a big boss, might not necessarily know it. 〗

〖LOL, anyway it couldn't be Jin Chen, just a guy with brute strength. 〗
