Chapter 137: Chapter 137 Where Are They?

Qin Chuan, who had always been calm, suddenly startled and asked loudly, "What did you say?"

Song Yan said, "Xiao Mengyi, she’s pregnant, and it’s yours!"

Those few words left Qin Chuan completely stunned, unable to recover for a long time. He didn’t even realize when exactly Song Yan had hung up the phone.

Jiangcheng City, Song Family!

Song Qingshan asked, "Haven’t you found any information about the other party yet? Not even their location?"

Xia Wanrong gently shook her head, "They used a virtual number with very strong privacy protection, leaving no trace to follow."

After finishing, she looked at the visibly low-spirited Song Yan, and continued, "Without knowing who the other party is, we can’t be sure whether the information they provided is true."

"The person revealed that Qin Nian is in danger and informed us that the Xiao girl is carrying Qin Chuan’s child. It could be a deliberate act, to render Qin Chuan powerless."

Song Qingshan’s brows furrowed deeply, as if he were considering Xia Wanrong’s words.

"It shouldn’t be!"

Just then, Song Yan suddenly shook her head, analyzing logically, "For both the Xiao Family and the Chen Family, they wouldn’t want any mishaps to occur at the engagement banquet."

"By telling us these two pieces of information, even if they manage to render Qin Chuan powerless, they still can’t ensure that he won’t go to the engagement banquet."

"I actually think both messages are true, and the person sending anonymous messages is an ally, very likely someone from the Xiao Family!"

On hearing this, everyone turned to look at her in surprise.

Song Yan continued, "The Xiao Family doesn’t want Qin Chuan to disrupt the arranged marriage with the Chen Family, so they must have arranged for someone strong to keep an eye on Nian Nian, and then, at the right time, they would use it to threaten Qin Chuan."

"In order to save his sister, Qin Chuan would have no choice but to forsake attending the engagement ceremony, ensuring that the alliance through marriage proceeds smoothly."

"Therefore, the person who disclosed the information to us is from the Xiao Family, and one thing is certain: they do not wish for Xiao Mengyi to marry into the Chen Family."

"For this reason, they’ve leaked the news of Nian Nian being in danger, to help us make arrangements in advance, ensuring that Qin Chuan goes to the engagement ceremony without any concerns."

"The same person also revealed Xiao Mengyi’s pregnancy, perhaps to up the stakes, forcing Qin Chuan to attend. Of course, it could also be for other unforeseen reasons."

Song Qingshan nodded, then looked at Song Yan and asked, "What can we do for Qin Chuan now?"

Song Yan said, "If my guess is correct, the strong person arranged by the Xiao Family won’t be very powerful. With Elder Tang’s abilities, he can certainly ensure Nian Nian’s safety."

"But, to avoid alerting the Xiao Family, we can have Elder Tang restrain the person sent by them. Once the Xiao Family makes contact, he can indicate that Nian Nian is already in his hands, and then the Xiao Family will have no further moves."

"Once Qin Chuan arrives at the engagement ceremony, any attempt by the Xiao Family to use Nian Nian to force him to leave will be meaningless."

Song Qingshan immediately rejoiced, "Good, we’ll proceed as Xiao Yan suggested. I’ll contact Tang Zhonghan right now."

After Song Qingshan left, Xia Wanrong sighed and said to the somewhat dazed Song Yan, "The news about Xiao Mengyi’s pregnancy, we don’t have to tell Qin Chuan at all."

Song Yan clearly understood the profound implication of her mother’s words—if they hid this news, Qin Chuan might worry about his sister’s safety and give up attending the engagement banquet.

She walked to the window, looking outside with a calm expression, and said, "If because I concealed this message, Xiao Mengyi ends up marrying into the Chen Family, Qin Chuan will definitely feel extremely guilty."

"I don’t want him to suffer, and I especially don’t want him to live with guilt for his whole life!"

Upon saying this, a brilliant smile suddenly appeared on her face. Turning to Xia Wanrong, she said, "Besides, even if Xiao Mengyi is carrying his child, so what?"

"In terms of relationship, I am even closer to Qin Chuan!"

After speaking, she turned and left, but before leaving, she said, "Mom, don’t worry. I won’t be shattered by this."

"Qin Chuan, I won’t give up either!"

Watching her daughter walk away, Xia Wanrong stood in a daze for a moment before a smile of relief appeared on her face, and she murmured to herself, "Yes, how could my daughter miss out on such an outstanding man?"

On a rural path in the suburbs of Jiangcheng City, tall trees towered on both sides.

An elderly man in tattered clothes supported himself with a birch wood staff in his right hand and carried a wine gourd in his left.

Following behind him was a beautiful young girl in her early twenties.

This old man and young girl were none other than Qin Wang and Qin Nian.

Perhaps because it was the first time she was going to worship her parents now that she was grown, Qin Nian seemed distracted and extremely low-spirited throughout the journey.

Suddenly, Qin Nian quickly caught up with her grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, are my parents’ graves on Duyin Mountain?"

The direction they were headed in was indeed toward Duyin Mountain.

Qin Wang simply nodded, his mood just as somber as Qin Nian’s.

Qin Nian bit her red lips tightly, feeling increasingly nervous as they drew nearer to Duyin Mountain.

It was at this moment that Qin Wang’s eyes flashed coldly, and he halted in his tracks.

Seeing Qin Wang stop suddenly, Qin Nian asked in confusion, "Grandpa, what’s wrong?"

Just as Qin Wang was about to speak, he sensed something, a smile creeping along his lips as he said, "It seems we’ve come across a rat, but no matter, the cat has already run off with it."

Qin Nian looked around, puzzled, "A rat? How come I didn’t see it?"

Qin Wang said, "If you can’t see it, don’t bother looking. Let’s hurry on our way."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Qin Nian’s arm and sped into a small path to the side.

About two hundred meters from where they were, a burly middle-aged martial artist lay pinned to the ground by a white-haired old man carrying a wooden box on his back.

With a face full of anger, the middle-aged martial artist demanded, "Who are you? What do you want?"

The old man snorted coldly and swung his hand down in a palm strike.

"Bang!"

Under the shocked gaze of the middle-aged martial artist, a deep palm imprint was left on the trunk of a large tree a few meters away.

"Energizing Skill! An Energizing Skill Grandmaster!"

The middle-aged martial artist stared at the old man with a face full of horror and exclaimed in disbelief, "You are an Energizing Skill Strong!"

The white-haired old man carrying the wooden box was none other than Tang Zhonghan!

And the middle-aged martial artist was a strong member of the Xiao Family, named Ren Jiang, a martial artist in the Early Stage Dark Energy Realm.

With a cold expression, Tang Zhonghan said, "If you don’t want to die, listen to me carefully!"

Ren Jiang hurriedly nodded, his face full of fear as he assured, "Elder, if you tell me to go east, I will not go west!"

Three minutes later, Tang Zhonghan had arranged everything.

But just then, he suddenly realized that Qin Wang and Qin Nian, whom he had been secretly following, had completely vanished.

"Not good!"

Tang Zhonghan’s face changed drastically as he suddenly grabbed Ren Jiang by the collar and barked angrily, "Besides you, did the Xiao Family arrange for someone else to keep an eye on Qin Nian?"
