8: Chapter 8: Surprise 8: Chapter 8: Surprise “Ah-choo!”
Yan Qianyi left the repair shop with a sneeze.
She was still wearing her wedding dress, the blood-stained hem now hidden after she had hitched it up, but her attire still drew frequent glances from passersby.
Sniffling, she hurriedly hailed a car by the roadside.
After waking up in the morning, she had gone to the repair shop to check her artificial intelligence system.
Xiao Ke hadn’t displayed any issues.
Her private savings remained untouched.
Once seated, she finally had time to browse online and catch up on the Yan Family’s affairs over the past two years.
Her mother had died on the spot in an accident two years ago.
Yan Qianyi wasn’t surprised when she found this news.
She had suspected that if she survived by chance, her mother might not have been so lucky.
However, learning today that she had become comatose due to a drug injected by Han Yarong, she had reasons to doubt that the accident she and her mother were involved in wasn’t merely incidental.
A year after her mother’s death, her father married Han Yarong.
Though it was said to be a year, rumors online suggested that less than a month after her mother’s passing, her father had already moved Han Yarong and her daughter, Han Ruyi, into the Yan’s residence.
Despite her mental preparedness, thinking about never seeing her mother again and how another woman now possessed her mother’s lifelong efforts, Yan Qianyi’s eyes reddened.
After regaining composure, she wanted to check Mu Yunlie’s personal information.
However, clicking through the spouse column into Mu Yunlie’s profile, it was blank.
Yan Qianyi fell into contemplation.
Although thinking of him brought to mind his clingy “little fairy” demeanor,
the murderous look in his eyes beforehand was unforgettable.
Mysterious identity, possessing a commanding and forceful system, and afflicted with a strange poison—all signs pointed to the man being extraordinary.
For safety, she should sever ties with him.
Yan Qianyi was about to click on the divorce application.
At that moment, a news broadcast came on the car radio.
“Last night at ten o’clock, a murder occurred near the hillside villa, where two men died on the scene due to excessive blood loss.
The vegetative bride in the car was the heiress of Yan Pharmaceutical Group, who is now missing.
The police have intervened, and preliminary judgment points to a robbery homicide…”
Realizing the driver was sizing her up through the rear-view mirror, Yan Qianyi offered him a slight smile, “Master, do I look like a vegetative person?”
“Not at all, not at all,” the driver averted his gaze awkwardly.
He was just curious because the passenger happened to be wearing a wedding dress.
Listening to the broadcast on the radio, Yan Qianyi’s lips curled up in a calculating smile.
She had hurriedly fled the previous night, guessing that the two scums would die from excessive blood loss before help could arrive.
The direction of the police investigation was also as she had anticipated.
Everything was within her expectations.
The only thing beyond her control was Mu Yunlie.
After pondering for a moment, she canceled the divorce.
This sudden “little fairy” could actually shield her from some troubles.
Right then, the car was driving past the crime scene.
The road was blocked, and the police were investigating and collecting evidence at the scene; authorized vehicles could activate flying mode to pass through.
As the car switched to flight mode, Yan Qianyi caught a distant view of the villa cluster nestled on the hillside.
She wondered what the reaction of those two, mother and daughter, would be seeing her.
It should be quite a “surprise.”
