Chapter 386: I’ll Go Personally With Yaoyao

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Huo Junhan looked straight ahead, his entire body cold. “Tu San is already dead. There’s no way to investigate this matter. After all, a dead person can’t speak.”

When the secret guard heard this, he already understood what Huo Junhan meant. “Yes, I’ll tell General Shen now that Tu San bit his tongue and committed suicide without explaining anything.”

Seeing that Huo Junhan didn’t speak again, Sang Lin knew what his master was thinking.

After all, the Shen family’s current enemy was the current Emperor.

There was a difference between a ruler and a minister. If the ruler wanted the minister to die, the minister had no choice but to die.

In addition, it concerned the truth of Madam Shen’s death when she was alive. If the Shen family found out that everything was related to the Emperor, they would probably rebel and rush to the palace to investigate the truth.

Once things developed to that point, it wouldn’t do the Shen family any good.

Moreover, the truth was still unknown. His Highness Li would never let Miss Shen get involved in such a dangerous matter.

“Tell the rest of the Shen family that I’ll talk to Yaoyao personally,” Huo Junhan said indifferently and sped up to walk out of the cell.

The girl’s boudoir was filled with the faint fragrance of flowers. Shen Yaowei lay on the bed with a layer of cold sweat on her forehead.

She struggled but couldn’t break free from the dream. She kept muttering, “Mother, Mother…!”

Huo Junhan opened the door and flashed to the bed to sit down. He held the girl’s cold hand in his palm. “Yaoyao, don’t be afraid.”

A trace of spiritual power flowed into Shen Yaowei’s body through her palm.

Shen Yaowei slowly opened her eyes and looked at Huo Junhan. Tears appeared in her clear eyes.

“Junhan…” Shen Yaowei threw herself into Huo Junhan’s arms. Her head was against his chest, and her arms were wrapped tightly around his waist. Her voice was aggrieved and pitiful. “I dreamed of my mother. She was clearly not far from me, but no matter how I chased, I couldn’t catch up to her.”

The scene in the dream was still fresh in her mind. Shen Yaowei thought of her helplessness at that time, and her face turned pale. “At that time, I kept calling Mother. Mother turned to look at me, but her eyes were cold. I’ve never seen Mother look at me like that.”

“You know in your heart that Auntie will never treat you that way, right?” Seeing Shen Yaowei nod, Huo Junhan’s voice became even gentler. “In that case, don’t believe the scenes in your dreams. Besides, dreams are often the opposite of reality.”

“Indeed, according to the actual situation, Mother will definitely miss us very much, not avoid us. I’m just worried that the truth of my mother’s death back then won’t be easy to investigate. Junhan, what did the assassin who was caught say?” Shen Yaowei looked up at Huo Junhan expectantly.

Huo Junhan’s gaze was cold. He reached out and stroked Shen Yaowei’s smooth long hair. “Just now, that assassin couldn’t withstand the torture and died. He didn’t have time to explain.”

“Not a word?” Shen Yaowei’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Huo Junhan nodded indifferently and repeated, “Not a word.”

“Since even you can’t force it out of him, it can be seen that this assassin’s mouth is really tight. However, this also proves that the person behind the assassins that day is definitely not simple. Perhaps it concerns the truth of my mother’s death back then.” The light in Shen Yaowei’s eyes turned into deep disappointment, and she looked much more dispirited..
