For the next consecutive days, Yun Bixue was almost completely severed from the outside world. This made her feel that something was off, so she started to observe Xie Limo.

 Today, during lunch, Yun Bixue stared at Xie Limo with a suspicious expression.

 “Why are you looking at me like that? Eat your meal!” Xie Limo pointed at Yun Bixue's bowl, which was overflowing with dishes that she had yet to eat.

 A strange gleam flashed across Yun Bixue's eyes. After a few mouthfuls, she asked, “Limo, have you been hiding something from me for the past few days?”

 Xie Limo's hands paused, and his expression s.h.i.+fted. “Why are you saying that? What do you think I can hide from you?”

 Yun Bixue thought about it and really could not answer that question. He had a mistress? Well, that was simply impossible.

 And even if he was hiding things from her, it was probably things regarding the n.o.ble families of the imperial capital.

 The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her suspicions were unfounded.

 Yun Bixue pursed her lips. “Limo, they say that people get stupid with pregnancy. Even if I become stupid, you're not allowed to lie to me.”

 “Okay, I won't lie to you.”

 1Ever since Majesty Kang suppressed the news about the Yuan family's smuggling of firearms, the media have quietened down.

 However, Qin Huailing stepped up to speak, which pushed the Yuan family onto the edge again. Over and over again, he tried to deal with Yuan Shuangrui.

 Women like her who were vicious and without morals should receive their punishments.

 Because of the discussions it sparked, the police had no choice but to investigate the issue in order to calm the speculations of the citizens.

 The reporters were always interviewing people for more information. They even wanted to know the stance of the Han family, but the Han family chose to remain silent.

 Eventually, the Han family announced that Han Mubai would be going for a business trip, so he would not be back for the time being.

 The reporters could only ama.s.s at the Yuan and Qin family to find out about the att.i.tudes of the family members. All of the Qin family's people agreed that Yuan Shuangrui should be punished by the law.

 The Qin family originally wanted to let Aunt Qin be a witness because she knew the truth and conspired with the Yuan family to harm Qin Huailing. However, the police of Ning An City reported that Aunt Qin committed suicide in jail.

 Qin Huailing's first reaction to that piece of news was that Aunt Qin was killed by someone. It was definitely not a suicide.

 But it would not be easy to find evidence that Aunt Qin was murdered.

 “Young Master Qin, are you going to just let the Yuan family escape from this?”

 Qin Huailing's gaze was chilling as his lips curled up. “I've already made preparations. I have the evidence.”

 When Qin Huailing took out the video he had recorded, everyone was beyond shock. The video showed Aunt Qin admitting to harming Qin Huailing back then.

 Furthermore, Aunt Qin personally penned down a letter, which could also be used as a piece of evidence.

 When Yuan Shuangrui learned about this, her face paled. “It's all fake. All fake! Qin Huailing fabricated them.”

 “I'm sorry, Miss Yuan, but please cooperate with our investigations. Right now, Young Master Qin is charging you with the murder of Aunt Qin.”

 Yuan Shuangrui felt hatred bubbling within her, especially towards Qin Huailing. She was unable to calm down no matter what.

 She wanted to meet Han Mubai, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not contact him at all. The Han family maintained their silence and had yet to lend a helping hand.

 For that, everyone speculated that the marriage between the Han and the Yuan families may just be an empty t.i.tle.
