Chapter 830: Chapter 830: Xia Yunchen Trending on Social Media After Getting Involved in a Homicide Case

Qin Ruan quickly finished a bowl of porridge, and Huo Yunjiao naturally took the empty bowl from her, passing her a napkin to wipe her mouth in one smooth motion.

The elderly Yan patriarch watched the young couple’s habitual and natural movements, his face revealing an expression rich with deep meaning.

After wiping her mouth, Qin Ruan heard Yan Yiqi’s voice asking, "Girl, you said that last night someone was watching us. Could this have anything to do with the member of the Brucester Family who died this morning?"

The Yan Family held significant control in both the Royal Family and the business world.

They had absolutely no involvement with the Witch Clan, religion, or any other Puppet entities.

Now, the only person they could seek help from was Qin Ruan.

Huo Yunjiao reclined casually, his perfectly shaped legs concealed by suit pants, outlining an elegant and refined posture.

As he shifted his position nonchalantly, his right arm stretched towards Qin Ruan’s lower back, his strong palm kneading through her clothes to soothe her.

Qin Ruan’s body was tender, and several extreme movements she had made the night before had inflicted quite some hardship on her.

Just now, when she had come down the stairs, Huo Yunjiao noticed that her walk was off.

Qin Ruan was about to answer the old Yan patriarch’s question when the moderate kneading on her lower back made her body involuntarily tense up.

The acid soreness of her waist eased under the adept fingers of the Third Master—Qin Ruan slowly relaxed her back, allowing him to continue unseen.

Qin Ruan shook her head at the old Yan patriarch, her tone cold, "I’m not too familiar with Black Feather Wing, but considering their awkward situation in the west, and their struggle against other religious forces, it’s unlikely they would easily confront the Northern England Royal Family. Be cautious when you return home."

Yan Yiqi wore a contemplative expression and suddenly spoke gravely, "There could be two possibilities. Maybe Black Feather Wing was unaware that the Brucester Family, using their power, made a move against the Yan Family. Over the years, Black Feather Wing’s attacks have mostly harmed civilians, with nobles rarely targeted, and members of the Royal Family have never been touched.

Perhaps they realized the trouble the Bruce Family would bring upon the Yan Family and took initiative to eliminate the source of trouble. Over the years, the Yan Family has held an important position in the Northern England Royal Family, and every move we make can have a sweeping impact, capable of affecting everything.

Alternatively, it’s possible that the Brucester Family’s attack on the Yan Family was known by Black Feather Wing, or they may even have wanted to take the opportunity to completely erase the Yan Family from Northern England.

With Xirong at the brink of turmoil, and my life not long for this world, this time the Yan Family seeks assistance from the Huo Family, hoping that the adept individuals from the east can solve our troubles. Knowing that we have a plan to resolve our crisis, Black Feather Wing might have decided to strike first, and the demise of that member of the Brucester Family was their doing, a show of their sincerity towards the Yan Family."

The situation was too complex, and after thinking it over, Qin Ruan said, "Both possibilities exist, and only the person behind the scenes knows the truth. Once you return home, be very careful, and if there are any other unnatural incidents, you can call me."

This was the only thing she could do for the Yan Family.

Qin Ruan’s demeanor remained cold, but her words were a comfort to hear, prompting the old Yan patriarch to show a touch of emotion, "Child, do you want to come back with us?"

"Ah!"

"Ee-yah!"

Before Qin Ruan could answer, Huo Yao and Huo Anqi in the arms of old Master Huo and Huo Hongxing protested.

The two brothers’ dark eyes desperately gazed at Qin Ruan, their expressions pitiful, as if they were about to be abandoned by their mother.

Qin Ruan tilted her head and showed them a tender and graceful smile.

She looked at the expectant old Yan patriarch and shook her head, "The children are still young and can’t be without me."

It was a polite refusal, her tone neither cold nor warm, and there was no closeness in her voice.

The old Yan patriarch was not disheartened and said understandingly, "Next time, when the children are older, you should take them to see where your mother lived. We have kept her room and many of her belongings as they were for many years."

Hearing the topic of Qin Ruan’s mother, Qin Anguo, Qin Jingcen, and Qin Mei all turned their gazes towards the old Yan patriarch.

Knowing the Qin Family’s deep affection for their youngest daughter, the old Yan patriarch continued, "Anyu was a very lively child, liked to take on various challenges, and loved equestrian competitions the most.

She kept a purebred Arabian horse at the equestrian center, which was very gentle, with exceptionally large, bright, and shiny eyes, and had extremely smooth fur.

That horse was a gift from the Queen of Northern England to Anyu. Having a purebred Arabian horse in the Royal Family was a very noble affair and considered as a gesture of high etiquette.

Unfortunately, a few years after Anyu disappeared, the horse died during one winter, but it left behind offspring—a very beautiful pure white Arabian—now well cared for by the stable hand at the Yan Family’s equestrian center.

"If you have time, you should go take a look. Anyu enjoyed participating in various equestrian competitions, and there are quite a few photos at home of her competing..."

As the old master Yan spoke of his daughter, a look of nostalgia and sorrow emerged on his weathered Eurasian face.

The Qin Family members also looked visibly distressed upon hearing this.

"We will definitely visit when we have the chance," Qin Jingcen replied to the old man’s invitation.

His most profound memories of his mother were all related to searching for his sister.

Whenever they received disappointing news, his mother would become silent, enveloped by self-blame, sadness, and negative emotions.

Listenting to old master Yan describe his mother, he imagined the most favored daughter of the Yan Family, the apple of their eye, as carefree and unbridled as could be.

Qin Anguo, hearing his eldest son’s words, nodded at old master Yan, his eyes reddening.

Qin Ruan also nodded in agreement.

Only Qin Mei remained silent, his eyes fixed on the phone screen, his frown deepening.

A bodyguard from the Yan Family walked in: "Family Head, the application for the international flight route has been approved, we can depart at any time."

Old master Yan clenched his fists, his gaze lingering on Qin Ruan, Huo Yao, and Huo Anqi, reluctant to let them go.

He sighed softly and stood up: "Mr. Huo—"

The elder Mr. Huo picked up Huo Yao and placed her on Huo Hongxing’s lap, then stood up: "Let me escort you out."

Qin Anguo, Qin Jingcen, Huo Yunjiao, Qin Ruan, and the others also stood up one after another.

Just as Qin Ruan was preparing to see the guests off, Qin Mei, who had not moved from the sofa, called out to her: "Ruanruan!"

The Yan family father and sons had already stepped outside.

Qin Ruan paused for a moment. With so many people seeing them off, one more or one less wouldn’t make a difference, so she didn’t follow them outside.

She turned her head to Qin Mei: "What is it?"

"Xia the Movie Star is in trouble!"

Qin Ruan frowned, asking instinctively, "What about Changyuan?"

Qin Mei: "He left early in the morning."

Qin Ruan hurried over to him: "What happened to Xia the Movie Star?"

"A female celebrity committed suicide in the hotel room he was staying in."

Qin Mei held up his phone with the bright screen, showing the news that had just shot up the trending list.

The news didn’t have many pictures, but a certain big V had retweeted a notice from the local police, stating in vague yet straightforward terms that Xia Yunchen was involved in a sordid deal with the female celebrity, which may have led to the tragedy because they couldn’t agree on a price.
