"Another person has died in the Kang family. This time it's Aunt Lin from the backyard. Not long ago, I heard that an aunt who passed by the Kang residence about an hour ago heard a woman's shrill scream coming from the Kang residence."
"Over the years, everyone in Yulin Mansion has been watching the excitement in Kang Tongpan's household. That aunt has seen so much excitement that she immediately guessed that something had happened in the Kang Mansion. The people that aunt knew in the Kang Mansion soon found out that Concubine Lin had died."

"If that's the case, then what about Brother Jing?"
Yan Cheng lowered his eyes: "Brother Jing has his own ideas about these matters. We don't need to worry too much about him. We just need to trust him."
