After all, Zhou Luobing had brought all of his luggage with him when he left.    

    

Therefore, Zhou Hui didn't think about Zhou Luobing anymore, he still had to go to the Red City Manor to take care of a matter.    

    

That's about the recipe.    

    

Although he did not have any evidence to prove that someone else framed him, Zhou Hui still had to find it.    

    

Previously, he heard from Uncle Zhou that there was a maid called Xiao Hong. He said that once, on the night he sent Zhou Luobing back, he saw a person sneaking around the study room.    

    

It was also because of this that the Old Manor Lord believed without any explanation that he had stolen the wine's formula.    

    

Zhou Hui felt that he had to look for Xiao Hong now. Although he might not get any answers, he knew that Xiao Hong was the key person in this matter.    

    

If his guess was right, Ziya must have found someone to frame him.    

    

After Zhou Hui told Gu Qing about his concerns, Gu Qing supported him very much and even sent him to the Red Orange Manor.    

    

Only, Gu Qing did not accompany him in.    

    

The security guard at the door did not expect Zhou Hui to see them at this time, but he was still very enthusiastic to see him, and told him that Old Manor Lord was in his study. For some reason, Old Manor Lord had a bad temper recently, and told Zhou Hui to be careful.    

    

Zhou Hui smiled and indicated to them, then quickly went in.    

    

Instead of going directly to the study, he went to the kitchen.    

    

If he remembered correctly, Xiao Hong should have always been a servant helping out in the kitchen. He only came over to look for Xiao Hong.    

    

But when Zhou Hui went to the kitchen, there were indeed two maids, one of whom Xiao Hong did not recognize. As for the other one, Zhou Hui had seen her before, she was the butler here, Aunt Hong.    

    

The security guards and the other servants outside did not know anything about the formula, but Aunt Hong did.    

    

The moment she saw that the person walking over was Zhou Hui, she immediately frowned and looked at Zhou Hui coldly, "Mr. Zhou? What business do you have here? "    

    

After Aunt Hong finished speaking, she asked the maid beside him to go out, but she continued to stare at Zhou Hui warily.    

    

Zhou Hui laughed bitterly, he was not familiar with Aunt Hong. Previously, he only knew that she was the butler here, but he did not have any connections with her.    

    

"Aunt Hong, do you have something to say to me?"    

    

Aunt Hong laughed coldly, "Mr. Zhou, you're thinking too much. If you still have a relationship with Old Manor Lord from before, I will definitely respect you, but you actually dare to do such a ungrateful thing and betray the Old Manor Lord. I just want to ask, why did you still have the face to come to the Red City Manor?"    

    

Zhou Hui wasn't angry at all when he heard her words.    

    

After all, the Old Manor Lord saw those formulas as the hope of the Red City Manor.    

    

Now, the formula that he had worked so hard to make was lost in a single night.    

    

Of course, he felt uncomfortable. As for Aunt Hong, she also regarded him as an enemy.    

    

Aunt Hong, I didn't expect you to misunderstand me so well. With my strength, I don't even need to steal a few of your recipes.    

    

After hearing what Zhou Hui said, Aunt Hong frowned, but a look of hesitation flashed past her eyes.    

    

Zhou Hui saw this, but was happy.    

    

If Aunt Hong had any doubts, it also meant that she didn't believe that she was the one who had stolen the formula. Perhaps she could even get Aunt Hong to help her?    

    

Zhou Hui then continued to speak, "Aunt Hong, don't you feel that there's something fishy about this, as your housekeeper, you have always been the one to take care of Red City Manor, but there's actually someone who locked Zhou Luobing and I up in the ice cellar for three or four days under your nose, and even then, this clearly means that we have to take care of our lives. It's just that we didn't succeed, and that's why the formula popped up.    

    

However, even at this point, Aunt Hong still did not speak.    

    

Zhou Hui didn't know what she was thinking, but if he was willing to gamble, would Aunt Hong believe him or not?    

    

If Aunt Hong had trusted him, she would definitely have helped him a lot in his investigations, but if Aunt Hong had trusted him, he would definitely call the Old Manor Lord to come over later. Furthermore, if he did not have the approval of the Old Manor Lord, it would be difficult for him to come over.    

    

Zhou Hui looked at her without a care in the world, and was even a little nervous. He clenched his fists, and sweat began to emerge from the center of his palms.    

    

Finally, a minute had passed, two minutes had passed. Aunt Hong opened her mouth, suddenly she took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Hui with determination, "Forget it, I'll believe you this once. I know you want me to help you explain, how can I help you?"    

    

Zhou Hui heaved a sigh of relief, Aunt Hong had believed in him.    

    

It looked like he had made the right bet this time.    

    

In truth, if Zhou Hui had switched to Aunt Hong, he would also agree. After all, he really didn't have any reason to steal the formula, and suddenly bringing the formula to him was indeed a bit forced. Furthermore, the formula had been lost, and both Zhou Luobing and himself were trapped in the ice cellar.    

    

After all, Aunt Hong was the butler of this place.    

    

Having caused so many things to happen in a row, of course she would be held accountable for her actions. If she wanted to change the Old Manor Lord's opinion of her, she could only rely on herself.    

    

Zhou Hui said without thinking, "I want to see Xiao Hong."    

    

But Aunt Hong actually frowned after hearing that, "You said you want to see Xiao Hong? But she's not here at all. "    

    

"What?" When Zhou Hui heard it, he was extremely shocked. It had only been a day or two, why was Xiao Hong no longer here? In the end, Xiao Hong was the most important person.    

    

After all, it was Xiao Hong who had personally said it, and she saw him sneakily in the study room. That night, Zhou Hui had clearly only gone back after sending Zhou Luobing off at the main entrance.    

    

So Xiao Hong must have understood the whole story.    

    

Aunt Hong, Xiao Hong, why is she not here?    

    

Aunt Hong sighed, "She resigned. After that incident, she came to me and said that she was afraid you would come and cause trouble for her in the future. Plus, her family is sick, so it's really inconvenient for them to continue working here. I agreed to let her go back."    

    

After Zhou Hui finished listening, she frowned. This was a good reason.    

    

"Then do you know where her family lives?"    

    

Aunt Hong lowered her head to ponder for a moment before suddenly raising her head. "I remember now."
