Chapter 2456: Chapter 2456: Personally Checking Everything
Ye Mingmei opened the floor-to-ceiling window, carefully looking for footprints on the ground, but it was spotlessly clean, with nothing at all.
She froze for a few seconds, turned around, and ran out the door.
Rushing to the living room, she grabbed the butler’s hand, "Help me get the surveillance footage from last night. I want to see the footage of the entire villa from eleven o’clock last night to this morning, especially the view towards my room!"
"Miss..." The butler was stunned, looking at Ye Mingmei in surprise.
"I said I want to see yesterday’s surveillance. Why are you just standing there?" Unable to wait for the butler, Ye Mingmei, in a hurry, ran toward the villa’s surveillance room.
She rushed into the Ye Family Villa’s surveillance room in one go, speaking before the guards inside could react, "I want to see the footage from last night of the cameras facing my room."
"Yes, Miss."
The guard was momentarily stunned, nodding respectfully.
The surveillance tapes from last night were fetched as per Ye Mingmei’s request and displayed on the computer screen.
"Are there only these two tapes?" Ye Mingmei looked at the surveillance footage in front of her, her breathing unconsciously tense, her hand on the table slightly exerting force. freēwebnovel.com
"Yes, Miss, there are only two cameras facing your room, and the tapes are all here," the guard explained meticulously.
Ye Mingmei sat in front of the computer, not daring to fast forward even a second, staring fixedly at the images on the surveillance tape.
She watched for nearly half an hour without seeing anything. There were still seven or eight hours left to watch, yet she didn’t show any impatience, as if determined to find something.
"Miss, what are you looking for? Watching like this, your eyes won’t take it. We two were on duty last night; you can ask us."
The guards standing by respectfully said.
"Were you the ones on duty last night?" Ye Mingmei was startled, remembering that she was supposed to accompany Meimei to the amusement park later, and bit her lip.
"I want to know if anyone entered my room last night after I fell asleep. It doesn’t have to be the main door, it could also be the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony!"
"Did Miss discover something?" The two guards’ nerves tightened, exchanging a nervous glance, "We watched all night last night and didn’t notice anything unusual. However, as for the floor-to-ceiling window, the camera in the back garden can only cover part of it, so we can’t be sure if someone went in from there."
Part of Ye Mingmei’s room was a blind spot; the cameras installed on the wall couldn’t monitor everything.
"..."
Even with the tapes watched over, it was no use.
Ye Mingmei’s gaze dimmed. It was just a suspicion in her heart, and now there wasn’t even a possibility of confirmation.
"Miss, Mr. Ye has woken up and asked you to come to his study." The butler appeared at the door, respectfully reminding her.
"My dad is awake?" Ye Mingmei’s eyes flashed, recalling Su Yiru’s speculation from yesterday, she immediately turned around and walked towards the door.
Standing in front of Ye Zhanxing’s study, looking at the tightly closed door, Ye Mingmei suddenly felt inexplicably tense.

As she reached out to turn the doorknob, Ye Mingmei could clearly hear her own heartbeat.
Taking a deep breath, she stepped inside.
The spacious study, in the morning light, appeared particularly quiet and peaceful. Ye Zhanxing’s tall figure sat at the desk, and upon hearing her footsteps, he lifted his head from the documents.
