Chapter 224 There was another reason she asked that.
Cao Kai's live streaming system originally had 98% of its energy remaining. After repairing Cao Kai's brain, 30% was used up, leaving only 68% at present.
The live-streaming system in Cao Kai's mind felt it necessary to inform the main brain that he was trapped in Cao Kai's mind by a mysterious force.
The live streaming system in Cao Kai's mind immediately used another 15% of its energy to send a signal.
The live broadcast system in Cao Kai's mind was sending signals, and what he sensed was that the signals it sent out seemed to be constantly being sent forward, without any notification that it had broken through the dimensional barrier.
Cao Kai's mental system didn't think outside the box; he immediately realized that the launch energy might be insufficient, so he tried launching again.
This time, the system in Cao Kai's mind watched the signal it sent out. After showing a successful transmission, it did not send any more signals, waiting for the latest instructions from the main brain.
Standing behind the door, Xia Mo rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought.
Sixty-eight energy points, minus fifteen, then another fifteen, leaving only thirty-eight. Before the system can enter hibernation, it needs to consume another eighteen energy points.
Eighteen points of energy are enough for the live streaming system in Cao Kai's mind to send a signal once more, but it's still somewhat dangerous. She needs to quickly put the live streaming system in Cao Kai's mind into hibernation mode.
What should we do?
As Xia Mo pondered, she walked inside to meet up with Yin Rou.

at the same time--
Xia Mo kicked Cao Kai out of the Han family and temporarily left Yin Rou's side.
The biggest threat is gone...
Butler Han immediately ordered the servants beside him in a harsh voice, "Why aren't you untying these ropes for me right now?!"
The Han family in the capital was mainly managed by Steward Han. As the saying goes, a local official is more powerful than a distant one, so the servants naturally listened to Steward Han, who was in charge.
"I am the head of the Han family! Without my order, none of you are allowed to untie him," Yin Rou commanded her servants.
The servants hesitated for a moment.
"Hmph," Butler Han simply sneered.
The servants immediately surrounded Steward Han and began to untie him.
"Boss, this rope is tied in a knot that's impossible to untie by hand," servant A explained in a low voice.
"Then hurry up and get the tools!" Butler Han shouted rudely.
"Yes Yes Yes……"
Two servants immediately ran off to find a knife or similar tool.
Butler Han glared at Yin Rou and said, "Once I report what you've done to Patriarch Han, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"
When Xia Mo returned, she saw servants untying the ropes from Steward Han, while Yin Rou stood by silently with a cold face.
In dealing with Cao Kai's matter, we must prioritize Yin Rou's ideas. Only in this way can we reclaim our fortune from Cao Kai. As for now...
Without asking Yin Rou, Xia Mo strode forward and pulled away the servant who had helped untie Steward Cao's ropes.
"You dare to move without the patriarch's permission!" Xia Mo looked at Yin Rou.
When Yin Rou saw Xia Mo return, the grievances in her heart were almost overflowing.
“They don’t treat me like the head of the Han family at all. How dare a mere steward overstep my bounds?” Yin Rou complained to Xia Mo directly in front of the servants and Steward Han.
“You forgot, you’re holding the family head’s seal,” Xia Mo reminded him.
“Yes,” Yin Rou nodded, understanding Xia Mo’s meaning.
No matter what she does, Xia Mo will support her.
"Anyone who dares to disobey orders will be sold off!" Yin Rou said coldly to her servants.
Since Yin Rou possessed the family head's seal, she had the right to sell them off. With this in mind, the servants who had previously obeyed Steward Han's orders dared not utter a sound.
Yin Rou said, "You, tie him to the pillar and expose him to the sun. Do not untie him without my order! Anyone who disobeys will be sold off without mercy!"
"……Yes."
The servants gathered in the courtyard glanced at Steward Han furtively, thinking of the family head's seal in Yin Rou's hand. Not daring to disobey, they hurriedly took out thicker hemp ropes and tied Steward Han to the sunlight.
"How dare you! Have you forgotten who is the most powerful person in the capital?!" Steward Han never expected that the servants under his command would actually dare to lay a hand on him.
“Butler Han, we don’t want to be people either. I can’t blame us. We’re just afraid of being sold off.” The servant A, who was speaking, glanced at Yin Rou and quickly tied Butler Han up.
Butler Han was trembling with rage, saying, "When the master arrives, I will definitely speak to him! I'll make sure you all suffer the consequences!"
Just as frustrated and angry Yin Rou was before, so too was Butler Han feeling frustrated and angry now.
Having intimidated the servants, Yin Rou did not let the matter rest.
She knew very well that if she didn't control Steward Han, she would face many more troubles in the Han family. So, she looked through the account books from the past few years in the capital and found evidence of Steward Han's embezzlement.
Inside the accounting office of Steward Han—
Yin Rou sat at her desk, flipping through the Han family's account books from the past few years in the capital.
Xia Mo stayed by Yin Rou's side. She used her divine sense to scan the account books and quickly found the problematic ones. She didn't say anything, but let Yin Rou complete the task independently.
"Young lady, if you keep flipping through these tens of thousands of ledgers, you might not find anything wrong even after you've gone through them all," Xia Mo warned.
Yin Rou's mind was filled with accounts, and when she looked at Xia Moshi, her eyes were blurry.
“It can be divided into sections, and then fifty books will be in one section…” Xia Mo told Yin Rou the method.
Yin Rou's eyes lit up, and she instantly understood Xia Mo's meaning. She immediately took action.
Xia Mo was very satisfied with Yin Rou's learning ability and reaction speed. She immediately said, "Miss, Cao Kai is the person behind selling you to the brothel. What should you do to make Cao Kai suffer?"
Yin Rou stopped flipping through the account books and looked at Xia Mo. Her eyes were filled with pain and hatred, but none of it was directed at Xia Mo.
Yin Rou lowered her head, her hands still clenched into fists, her heart churning with emotions.
She wanted to let go of the past, but... as long as Cao Kai was still in the Cao family, and the Cao family was still the acting young master of the Cao family, she seemed... unable to let go! She always wanted to use the Han family shipping in her hands to compete with the Cao family shipping, to prove herself, and at the same time tell those people that even though she was a girl, she was no less than a man!
“Cao Kai did all this simply to obtain Cao Yun. If he… can never… touch Cao Yun in this lifetime, I’m afraid it would be worse than killing him, right?!” Yin Rou gritted her teeth.
Xia Mo nodded seriously and asked, "How can we drive Cao Kai out of Cao Yun's family?"
She asked this for another reason: only if Yin Rou did this could the stolen luck be reclaimed, so naturally she wanted to pass the question on to Yin Rou.
