There must be something fishy about this. Recalling what Li Yan had done in the past, Pei Xuanxin became vigilant.
However, this time, Li Yan hid the gold ingot very well. Moreover, she didn't show any abnormality in the next few days, so Pei Xuanxin didn't find anything unusual.
Later on, after Pei Xuanxin became busy with work, he couldn't care less about this matter.
Unfortunately, that slight negligence caused him a lot of trouble.
At first, Li Yan was very careful.
She didn't dare to tell Pei Xuanxin about the gold ingots, but she was also worried that the person who gave her the money would find Pei Xuanxin and tell him about this.
Li Yan had already made up her mind. As long as Pei Xuanxin asked about this, she would say that she didn't know.
Anyway, no one had seen the servant give her the basket.
To be on the safe side, Li Yan took out the basket and cloth containing the gold ingots and secretly burned them in the stove.
