He got up to open the door, and outside stood Yan Nankun and Su Yu. Su Yu had sneaked out without Yin Suhua knowing and said, "Fourth Brother, everyone has been looking for you, going nearly crazy. We tried calling you but you didn’t answer, so we guessed you must be here. Is Fourth Sister-in-law here with you?"
Yan Nanrong turned around and walked inside, as Su Yu pulled Yan Nankun along with her, "Fourth Brother, I know Fourth Sister-in-law’s death hit you hard, but you can’t go on like this. You need to let her rest in peace."
So much has changed at ho in such a short ti, first it was Auntie, and now it’s Fourth Brother and Fourth Sister-in-law. Who knows what will happen next.
Yan Nanrong walked into the bedroom. Su Yu, seeing the corpse lying on the large bed, was so frightened that she buried herself in Yan Nankun’s embrace. Yan Nankun patted her back in comfort and frowned, saying, "Fourth Brother, do you want Fourth Sister-in-law to die without resting in peace?"
Yan Nanrong said, "If I cremate her, that would truly leave her restless."
Yan Nankun asked puzzled, "Fourth Brother, what do you an?"
"You guys go. I still have a daughter to raise and wouldn’t seek death. Just, during this period, I’ll trouble you to take care of Si’er."
Su Yu’s eyes reddened slightly, wanting to say sothing more, but Yan Nankun tugged at her sleeve, "Fourth Brother, don’t worry, we’ll take good care of Si’er. Rember, we will always be a family."
After speaking, he pulled Su Yu away, and once they left the villa, Su Yu broke free of his hand and frowned, "Why didn’t you let speak?"
Yan Nankun quickly and cautiously said, "Dear, don’t be upset. Think about the child."
With those words, he sighed, "You know how stubborn Fourth Brother can be. Once he’s set on sothing, nothing can change his mind. Our advice is useless. I suspect Fourth Brother knows that Fourth Sister-in-law’s death isn’t as simple as it seems."
Su Yu was shocked, "Do you an Fourth Sister-in-law didn’t commit suicide?"
If it wasn’t suicide, then it must be murder. Who would be so bold as to murder the Yan Family’s Fourth Lady?
The more Su Yu thought, the more frightened she beca.
Yan Nankun patted her shoulder and said, "I don’t know the specifics either, but I’ve thought about that day countless tis and sothing feels off. We all know Si’er is Jiang Li’s daughter, after all, appearances don’t lie. But, as for Fourth Sister-in-law and Jiang Li, we know them sowhat. They both have families and wouldn’t act so impulsively..."
"You an soone set them up? Who could have done it?" Su Yu thought Yan Nankun made sense. With so many guests that day, even if they were eting secretly, they wouldn’t have chosen such a ti. It was like openly inviting trouble."
Yan Nankun shook his head, "I don’t know either." He recounted the events of that day, and Su Yu said, "You an Fourth Sister-in-law left with Yun Ya?"
"Exactly. Yun Ya wasn’t drinking at the ti, but Fourth Sister-in-law insisted. She had a little, and then Yun Ya felt unwell, so Fourth Sister-in-law helped her downstairs to rest. Then, at so point, both Si’er and Jiang Li disappeared, and after that, the incident happened..."
Won are always more sensitive than n, easily catching small details.
It seed Su Yu had a guess, yet she dared not believe it. The family is full of diverse characters, each with hidden motives. Aside from Third Sister-in-law, she didn’t want to concern herself with others.
Her relationship with Pei Xinyi wasn’t that good, but upon hearing what happened to her, sympathy moved her heart. Despite carrying a child, she had died, and it was this compassion that made her secretly leave without Yin Suhua noticing. Now, she realized she was too naive; there must be more than ets the eye.

"Seventh Uncle, you’re so nice, any woman who marries you will surely be happy in the future." The little girl tilted her head and said with a giggle.
Her injuries had healed, and for the past few days, she stayed at Yan Nangui’s place. Yan Nangui treated her well, buying her snacks and toys, and playing with her.
Yan Nangui raised an eyebrow slightly, smiling, "Really?"
The little girl nodded vigorously, ran to him, hugged his leg, and laughed, "Then I’ll marry you when I grow up, okay?"
Yan Nangui looked down at her eyes; she had a pair of very beautiful eyes, clear and transparent like glass.
Another pair of eyes flashed in his mind, radiating brilliance when angry, dazzling brightly.
He smiled, tapped her nose gently, "Silly child, thinking so far ahead."
Yan Si rubbed her little nose, huffing, "Seventh Uncle, you’ll flatten my nose bridge."
Yan Nangui laughed, shaking his head, only taking the child’s joke lightly, without taking it to heart.
Juncheng ca in and whispered a few words into his ear, making Yan Nangui instinctively glance at the little girl, her eyes shining brightly like a little mouse that had stolen rice.
