The drizzle kept falling incessantly, with countless pedestrians strolling under umbrellas, creating a picture of sheer beauty.

Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan were among them.

Ye Xunhuan held an umbrella, while Su Guyan linked her arm through his, and the two looked intimate and loving.

At this moment, it seemed as if they had returned to their school days.

Back then, whenever it rained, Ye Xunhuan would always hold an umbrella and go to and from school with Su Guyan.

At that time, both of them were incredibly happy, without any worries or troubles.

Although that joyful time has passed, they felt that happiness again now.

Su Guyan didn't buy anything. Coming out with Ye Xunhuan was purely a leisure stroll.

Of course, whenever she saw something delicious, Su Guyan would stop in her tracks and wouldn't hesitate to buy it and eat it on the spot, disregarding her status.

At this moment, Su Guyan did not have the aloof demeanor she had in the company, resembling more like an approachable older sister.

Time, even in the happiest moments, tends to fly by the fastest.

Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan both felt it, and before they realized it, it was already past four in the afternoon.

One could say Ye Xunhuan spent an entire day with Su Guyan today.

Since it was getting late, Su Guyan called Ali to come pick her up. As for Ye Xunhuan, who had spent the whole day with her, Su Guyan was already very satisfied.

Parting ways with Su Guyan, Ye Xunhuan returned to the Listen Fragrance Water Pavilion villa.

Heading to the company at this time was absolutely impossible for Ye Xunhuan.

The events of yesterday were still vivid in Ye Xunhuan's mind; if he hadn't been stronger than Longzu Bodhi, he might have been overwhelmed by Longzu Bodhi yesterday.

Even so, Ye Xunhuan still felt that Longzu Bodhi's strength was incredible!

Just as Ye Xunhuan returned to the villa, Dongfang Qingyu was already driving to Jiangzhong City's high-speed train station!

He was there to pick up the Qi family members!

Nowadays, the speed of Huaxia's high-speed trains is comparable to airplanes, and sometimes even faster.

So the Qi family members took the high-speed train instead of a plane.

Fortunately, Jiangzhong City's high-speed train station is big enough, so even when picking people up, there's no need to get drenched in the rain as everything can be done inside.

Dongfang Qingyu stood at the exit, looking around for the Qi family members.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in traditional Chinese clothing emerged from the exit beside him.

Upon seeing this middle-aged man, Dongfang Qingyu's heart skipped a beat.

Damn, this is going to be big trouble!

In the next moment, Dongfang Qingyu immediately walked towards the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man sported slicked-back hair, meticulously groomed, bearing a resemblance to the image of Chow Yun-fat in the movie "God of Gamblers."

However, whereas Chow Yun-fat always had a friendly smile, this man wore a sullen face. His eyes, meant to be sharp and bright, were instead shadowed and foreboding, giving off a "keep your distance" vibe.

"Uncle Qi, I am Dongfang Qingyu. My third aunt sent me to pick you up!" Dongfang Qingyu said, very respectfully, to the man.

Respect was necessary; this was Qi Tiansheng's father—Qi Ruohai!

Qi Ruohai glanced at Dongfang Qingyu and said coldly, "Wu Lanqin has already informed me, take me to see my son!"

Getting such a look from Qi Ruohai made Dongfang Qingyu feel as if he was being stared down by a venomous snake, sending goosebumps all over his body and causing an involuntary shiver!

"Young Qi is still at the police station, Uncle Qi, you..."

"To the police station!" Qi Ruohai demanded outright.

Qi Ruohai said so, and naturally, Dongfang Qingyu dared not object. He led Qi Ruohai outside.

As they stepped outside, Dongfang Qingyu realized that Qi Ruohai was not alone but with three others!

Two of them were around his age, the other an older man clothed in a gray long shirt, his face deeply wrinkled.

These three appeared centered around Qi Ruohai, yet Qi Ruohai himself showed much respect to the older man.

Dongfang Qingyu noticed the dynamic but dared not comment.

At that moment, he could clearly discern the menacing intent on the faces of Qi Ruohai and his companions.

Once in the car, Dongfang Qingyu drove directly to the police station.

Upon arrival, though many officers had finished their shifts, some were still on duty, and Wu Mei was also present.

When Dongfang Qingyu brought Qi Ruohai in, saying he was here to identify a body, a police officer immediately reported the matter to Wu Mei.

This case was being handled by Wu Mei; she was responsible for all aspects, and since she was present, naturally no one else would interfere.

Having learned someone came to identify the body, Wu Mei promptly appeared before Qi Ruohai and his party.

"Are you here to identify a body?"

"Yes!" Dongfang Qingyu, knowing Qi Ruohai must be grieving, quickly replied, "This is Qi Tiansheng's father..."

"Qi Tiansheng?"

"Officer, can you take us there, please?" Qi Ruohai suddenly interjected, his voice exceptionally cold, as if an ancient, unyielding ice sculpture.

After casting a glance at Qi Ruohai, Wu Mei hesitated briefly before leading him to identify the body.

At that moment, Wu Mei had a sense that something was off with Qi Ruohai, though she couldn't quite put her finger on what.

Soon, Wu Mei brought Qi Ruohai and the others to the place where the bodies of Qi Tiansheng and Xuan Shuangzi were kept.

Upon seeing Qi Tiansheng's corpse, Qi Ruohai's body immediately began to tremble uncontrollably, his fists clenching tightly, his eyes turning blood red!

"Tiansheng..." Qi Ruohai rushed to his son's side in one swift motion, trembling, eyes welling with tears, "Who... Who killed you?"

In this moment, Qi Ruohai seemed like a monstrous beast of fury, his entire being filled with a poignant and chilling murderous intent.

This surge of killing intent caused Wu Mei's delicate body to shiver involuntarily.

This Qi Ruohai was no ordinary man; he was an ancient Martial Artist!

The next instant, the elder who came with Qi Ruohai, upon seeing Xuan Shuangzi's body nearby, remarked in surprise, "Oh, Xuan Shuangzi!"

Upon hearing the old man's words, Wu Mei immediately asked, "Elder, do you know this person?"

"Indeed, when did he die?"

"He was discovered along with your son!" Wu Mei did not hide the information, stating truthfully: "We just didn't know his identity!"

"This matter is beyond your jurisdiction now; get your superior." the elder said coldly.

"Elder, I believe I should handle this case..."

"Young lady..."

"I am a member of the Hidden Dragon!" Wu Mei stated bluntly.

"Then report it; Protector Xuan Shuangzi died an unnatural death!" The elder confirmed after Wu Mei revealed her affiliation with Hidden Dragon.

"What?" Wu Mei was utterly shocked.

Just then, Qi Ruohai suddenly said, "Dongfang Qingyu, Wu Lanqin said my son was last seen heading to duel with Ye Xunhuan and then disappeared before being found dead. Is that correct?"

"Yes... yes..."

"Take me there!" Qi Ruohai grit his teeth, "I will kill him!"
