Chapter 442 Drowning
Qin Yaoruo checked the time for a while; the recording was about to begin.
She suddenly remembered something important, put her right hand on Su Youling's arm, and winked at her, "I almost forgot, you absolutely have to help me with this. My brother, a lifelong bachelor, has finally come to his senses. Could you act as a middleman and lend a hand..."
It was only at this moment that Su Youling learned from her that Wen Xi and Qin He had a secret, ambiguous relationship.
No wonder, she had noticed that the two of them had been getting too close lately. It turned out that they had developed feelings for each other without her knowledge.
"In that case, leave it to me." The two were such a perfect match, she was naturally happy to help them get together.
Having received her promise, Qin Yaoruo left the monitoring room with peace of mind.
The dating reality show continues filming.
After the break, the program resumed recording.
Qin Yaoruo's room was as quiet as a chicken's.
She stared at the word 'challenge' for a moment, then a wicked smile suddenly appeared on her lips. Without waiting foolishly any longer, she turned and went to the third-floor craft workshop.
As I passed by, I happened to see Chen Shian singing a sour love song, while Yu Jiaren had a constipated smile on her face. If there hadn't been a camera filming her, would she have felt like throwing up?
Upon seeing Qin Yaoruo, Yu Jiaren seemed to be revitalized, giving Chen Shi'an a shy smile and praising the lovingly prepared breakfast.
Chen Shi'an understood her thoughts and turned back to say sarcastically, "Qin Yaoruo, the preliminary selection of male guests isn't even over yet, and you're already running away in fear? What if a male bodhisattva takes pity on you and is willing to subdue demons and eliminate evil for the people!"
Yu Jiaren gave him a dramatic tug.
Qin Yaoruo smiled enigmatically, "You look just like a Bodhisattva."
The kind made of clay.
After saying that, she leisurely went upstairs to do her crafts.
The remaining two looked at each other, suddenly feeling a chill run down their spines.
Qin Yaoruo is definitely going to cause trouble again!
Su Youling today

Having achieved his purpose, he thanked Xia Zhiying and, seeing Qin Yaoruo's gaze, was about to carefully observe what would happen next.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a familiar figure slowly approaching.
Why is Li Mufeng here?
Holding such a huge bouquet of flowers and dressed so flamboyantly, something's not right.
Su Youling instinctively sensed the gossip and was about to raise her hand to call out to someone.
When Xia Zhiying caught sight of Li Mufeng's face, her expression changed. She instinctively hid behind Su Youling and tried to pull her into the house.
However, he was a step too late. Li Mufeng had already spotted Su Youling and strode over.
Xia Zhiying had no way to hide, especially in front of Su Youling, so she could only pretend to be calm.
However, her expression was rather unpleasant, and she deliberately avoided looking at Li Mufeng, making it hard for Su Youling not to overthink things.
Li Mufeng had originally seen Su Youling coming over, but now he also noticed Xia Zhiying behind her. His face instantly lit up with a flirtatious smile as he handed over the flowers in his hand, saying, "Miss Xia, these flowers are specially for you."
Su Youling raised an eyebrow, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two with interest, while winking at Li Mufeng.
However, Li Mufeng was completely focused on Xia Zhiying and didn't pick up on her subtle hints.
Xia Zhiying's expression grew increasingly unpleasant, and she showed no intention of accepting the bouquet. She forced a smile and said, "Mr. Li, this is inappropriate..."
Before she could even refuse, Li Mufeng interrupted her, shoving the flowers into Xia Zhiying's arms like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
With a smile as bright as a spring breeze, she said, "Every single flower was carefully selected for you. If you're not suitable, who is?"
Xia Zhiying was forced to accept the bouquet, and subconsciously gave Su Youling a pleading look.
Seeing this, Su Youling quickly put away her gossipy gaze and joked with a smile, "I didn't expect you two to know each other. Maybe it's fate."
These words clearly struck a chord with Li Mufeng, who echoed, "It seems the world is indeed small. I came here specifically to invite Miss Xia to dinner. Since we've bumped into each other, I don't mind if the three of us have dinner together."
Su Youling understood his subtext perfectly and immediately said that she had other things to do and wouldn't bother them.
Xia Zhiying panicked immediately upon hearing this and grabbed Su Youling's forearm. "Miss Su, I also have to go. Why don't you give me a ride?"
She truly hadn't expected that even though she had made herself perfectly clear that day, Li Mufeng would still be so persistent, even chasing her all the way here.
There are too many people around, and if this gets back to Chu Yuexuan, given his intolerant nature, she'll definitely be tormented again.
Su Youling also guessed Xia Zhiying's concerns. Although she was happy to give the two of them some opportunities to spend time together, she couldn't bear to do it.
Just as he was thinking of helping Xia Zhiying out of that predicament, his phone rang.
It was Zhou Ming who called.
When Su Youling heard the news of Li Lihua's death, her heart sank, and the temperature of her hand holding the phone dropped sharply.
Even though she had been mentally prepared when Zhou Ming investigated, she was still quite shocked when she actually heard the news.
"I really have something urgent to take care of right now, Li Mufeng, could you please take Miss Xia with you?"
Su Youling chased after him as she walked out.

Ask about the cause of Li Lihua's death.
"When the body was found, it had turned white from being submerged in water. The preliminary assessment was that it had drowned."
Su Youling couldn't help but frown.
This was simply too ridiculous; she didn't think it was just a simple accident.
She pursed her lips, her voice slightly strained: "Keep investigating. Is Karina really the last person Li Lihua came into contact with before her death? Was Li Lihua's disappearance caused by someone or by her own actions? In short, don't overlook any clues."
Zhou Lang opened the car door for Su Youling. After thinking for a moment, Su Youling decided to go back to the Li Mansion first.
Li Lihua's death was too suspicious, especially at this delicate juncture.
The last time Li Lihua approached her, she was stylish and arrogant, clearly indicating that she had someone backing her up.
Now, Li Lihua's death may be because she failed to probe her identity, or even alerted the enemy, and has lost her last bit of value.
So, is this person actually Karina?
Su Youling narrowed her eyes, gazing thoughtfully out the car window, a vague unease creeping into her heart.
The car suddenly jolted, and Zhou Lang said it had encountered a roadblock.
Su Youling snapped out of her reverie and glanced down at her phone, where a social news notification popped up with a striking and jarring headline: "Murderer Spotted at A City International Airport."
Her heart skipped a beat, her temples throbbed violently, and her fingertips instinctively clicked on the news.
"A masked man wielding a sharp weapon was found in the airport restroom, injuring passengers waiting to board."
Below is a blurry photo, likely taken by a passerby in the chaos.
Su Youling's gaze suddenly stopped.
This person... is it Karina? What a coincidence!
