“How’s Shen Da’s case being handled?” Shen Jun asked as he sipped his millet porridge.

Observing Shen Jun’s expression, Shen Qingyue replied, “The first trial has concluded. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. Shen Da has appealed… I will apply pressure on that end to expedite the resolution of this matter and prevent any impact on the group’s stock market.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Jun nodded, not saying anything further. He had grown weary of thoughts concerning his brother’s family.

Shen Qingyue stayed with Shen Jun for a while longer, waiting until the elderly family member rested, before preparing to leave. Shortly after returning home, she received a call from private detectives. They had obtained evidence linking Wang Anning and Wen Xin. The two had been in contact, there were records of hotel stays, and they had even procured Wen Xin’s infertility diagnosis.

Without delay, armed with the evidence, Shen Qingyue contacted Chen Ying. However, after attempting for half a day, she could not get through. She then went to see Chen Song.

Chen Song said on the phone, “She told me an hour ago that she was going to see you. Haven’t you seen her?”

At Chen Song’s words, Shen Qingyue’s heart skipped a beat. “She never came to find me!”

Chen Song quickly made a decision. “Keep trying to call her, ask others too. I’ll come to you immediately.”

After ending the call, Shen Qingyue reached out to their mutual friends, hoping to glean some information. But she ended up empty-handed. In that moment, images of Chen Ying from a past life, lying wounded in the morgue, flashed through her mind. She was anxious but struggled to maintain her composure.

When Chen Song arrived, they went straight to where Wang Anning was stationed. As expected, Wang Anning had taken a day off today.

Shen Qingyue held onto the bald man from before. “Where did Wang Anning go? You guys must know! It’s not possible that you don’t know!”

The bald man leaned back on the couch, still holding a fiery red-lipped beauty in his arms, a malicious smile on his face. “You want to know, huh? How about spending the night with me? As for him, he’s probably busy with that idiot named Chen… doing things.”

Before he could finish his sentence, a figure behind Shen Qingyue rushed forward and delivered a punch to his face. Without waiting for the bald man’s response, the figure grabbed a nearby bottle and smashed it against him.

The noisy atmosphere of the bar could not drown out the bald man’s agonizing screams.

Seeing the commotion, the people around backed away, standing aside to watch the spectacle.

This time, the bald man’s head was not shining, it was red with blood. He kept wailing, wanting to fight back, but he was already suppressed by Chen Song and could not move.

Chen Song’s usually gentle face was now as ominous as a demon’s. “Where’s Chen Ying?”

The bald man grew angrier. “I don’t know! That b*tch deserves what she got! You guys think you’re so great? So what if she’s from a wealthy family? She’s just a cheap wh*re throwing herself at anyone with money!”

Chen Song was completely infuriated, picking up a broken bottle nearby and aiming for the man’s neck.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyue hurriedly intervened. Hitting him was fine, but taking his life was not an option. But just then, a woman burst out of the crowd, trembling as she shouted, “I… I know where Chen Ying is! Wang Anning took her to the Rose Hotel. I heard that they were picking out something nice to mark their first time together…”

Chen Song pushed the bald man away and turned to leave.

Shen Qingyue quickly followed suit.

The bald man held his head, and the woman rushed to help, but he shoved her away. “You’re a damn sl*t too! Who told you to spill the beans!”

The woman started crying. “Am I supposed to watch you get beaten to death? Can’t you do something legitimate for once? If something happens to you, what about me and the child?”

The noise behind them grew fainter as Shen Qingyue reached the doorway, catching sight of Chen Song’s car’s taillights. She had to find her own ride, as she had come with him. But today, for some reason, she could not hail a cab for ages. After about ten minutes, she finally got a ride and arrived at the Rose Hotel. Then, she contacted Chen Song, asking for their exact location. She made several calls, and only after seven or eight attempts did Chen Song answer.

“Where are you now?”

Chen Song’s breathing was uneven. “I’ve already taken Ying Ying back. You go back by yourself, and be careful.” He then hung up.

Shen Qingyue wanted to say more, but when she tried calling again, Chen Song’s phone was already switched off. She sensed that his attitude was not right, but for now, she could not ask anything further. She could only wait until tomorrow. Just as she was preparing to leave the hotel, she saw Qin Zhen and Wei Jiu’er coming out. Their eyes met, but Shen Qingyue pretended not to notice, turned around, and walked away.

This time, Wei Jiu’er probably was tired too and did not approach her for a confrontation. But Qin Zhen became more intense. “What are you doing here?”

Seeing the person blocking her way, Shen Qingyue felt so disgusted she could vomit. “Rest assured, I didn’t follow you here. I’m not tailing you, I’m not that bored..”
