Chapter 349: Chapter 349: News about Lin Yurong

Shang Junxiao didn’t come over after his concert ended at eleven last night.

But he had always been concerned about this matter and came to the Fu Family early in the morning with Duan Jianchuan.

Fu Shiyan, wearing pajamas, met their gazes with complete composure before turning to Duan Jianchuan, "Did you follow him to make trouble so early in the morning?"

"He just wanted to come over and ask about the situation," said Duan Jianchuan. "I told him about it on the way here. I’ve come for another matter that I need to discuss with Third Brother."

Fu Shiyan felt a stir in his heart, "Does it have something to do with Lin Yurong?"

Duan Jianchuan nodded, his expression somewhat grave.

"Wait here," said Fu Shiyan, glancing at Shang Junxiao, who was about to pour out his troubles, then said to Duan Jianchuan, "Come with me to the study."

Duan Jianchuan followed Fu Shiyan into the study.

Leaving Shang Junxiao alone in the living room, looking disheveled by the wind.

Wasn’t he here for his own affair?

Duan Jianchuan followed Fu Shiyan into the study.

Fu Shiyan sat down with him and massaged his temples, asking, "What’s the matter?"

"Actually, we got some news last night, but it was too late, so I didn’t come over," Duan Jianchuan said. "Old Shang said this morning that he wanted to meet Third Brother, and I wanted to speak with Third Brother in person anyway, so I came."

Fu Shiyan hummed a response, "Get to the point."

Upon hearing this, Duan Jianchuan took out his phone, pulled up two pictures, and handed it to Fu Shiyan, "This is the information they’ve investigated. Lin Yurong is dead, found in a hotel. She is said to have jumped to her death, and the state of her corpse wasn’t too good."

Taking the phone, Fu Shiyan’s brows furrowed slightly at the images, "What happened here?"

"When her body was found outside the hotel, it was like this, completely naked," said Duan Jianchuan without changing his expression. "They say the first person who discovered her body was the hotel’s janitorial staff, and Lin Yurong’s corpse was quite unsightly. Rumors were rampant, claiming she overdosed on drugs, got careless while messing around with someone, and accidentally fell off the balcony. But as for who she was messing with, that shockingly remained unknown."

Fu Shiyan narrowed his eyes and set the phone on the table, "What do you mean by ’remained unknown’?"

"Because on that very night, coincidentally, the surveillance was out of order, and a guest register had gone missing—specifically, the one from that night," Duan Jianchuan’s voice deepened slightly, "Third Brother, don’t you think that’s too much of a coincidence?"

Fu Shiyan cut to the chase, "Was it Fu Yuxing?"

"Our people checked, and Fu Yuxing was indeed spotted on a nearby street that night," answered Duan Jianchuan.

Fu Shiyan, looking at the phone on the table, pondered for a moment, "But Lin Yurong was supposed to have been strangled to death."

"That’s unknown," said Duan Jianchuan. "At the time, everyone said it was a fall, and because the way she died was... ghastly, both the school and her family didn’t pursue it and quickly buried the body. This information was learned from a neighbor of Lin Yurong. And Lin Yurong’s parents have since moved away. When our people found them, they didn’t want to speak up except to say that Lin Yurong died disgracefully."

As he spoke, Duan Jianchuan added, "Lin Yurong’s manner of death could also be just a Blinding Technique on the surface."

Fu Shiyan nodded slightly. He took out his phone and found the photo of Lin Yurong that Jiangli had sent to him.

It was clear to see—a deep strangulation mark on Lin Yurong’s neck.

If she died from a fall, that kind of mark couldn’t have appeared.

Fu Shiyan leaned more towards Duan Jianchuan’s conjecture and said swiftly, "First, investigate Fu Yuxing. Find a way to keep him trapped in H City, and make sure he doesn’t travel far in the near future, wait for the Abbot to return."

"Understood, I’ll make the arrangements right away," replied Duan Jianchuan.
