Chapter 1298 The truth vaguely surfaced
"Does Chu Yan have many lovers in New York?"
Finally, she thought of a question that was not so dangerous and profound. Unfortunately, as soon as she asked this question, someone brought a glass of wine from the table and sat down on the sofa diagonally opposite her.
Shen Pianpian: ...
I began to wonder if someone had cast a spell on me today.
Chu Yan, who had obviously heard that, leaned back on the sofa and took a sip of wine, his expression half-smiling, but he never looked up at her.
On the other hand, Ye Danggui uttered a rare sneer without any hesitation.
"New York is nothing. The first time I met Mr. Chu in Country A was in a bar. The beauties around him, both plump and thin, could circle Country A twice."
His voice was neither loud nor soft, but just loud enough for Chu Yan on the opposite side to hear.
Miss Shen, who started the conversation, touched her nose a little awkwardly, and glanced secretly in Chu Yan's direction, but happened to see the man's profile turned away.
He seemed to be smiling at someone.
The light from above fell on his short hair and profile, making his outline look elegant, but there seemed to be a thin layer of frost between his eyebrows.
Although it seemed inappropriate, Shen Pianpian still thought of roses at the first moment.
The rose that blooms in the polar regions has the most elegant and beautiful character, but it is also covered with the coldest and sharpest thorns.
If anyone wants to get close, they might get their hands pricked and covered in blood, and be frozen to death.

It was already very late when they returned to the hotel after the banquet, but thinking about what happened at the banquet today, Shen Pianpian couldn't help but call Cheng Zhiyuan.
It should still be daytime in the imperial capital, so Cheng Zhiyuan answered the phone quickly.
"Did the editor-in-chief give you trouble?"
The man's voice was a little hoarse and he seemed a little tired, but his intimidation remained undiminished when he asked the question.
"No one bothers me,"
Shen Pianxian quickly asked,
"Do you know how Ye Danggui's sister died?"
This question seemed quite unexpected. Cheng Zhiyuan paused for a moment before slowly recalling what he had just said.
"You mean Ye Qingshuang?"
"His sister's name is Ye Qingshuang?"
"There was only one girl in his life, and she died in a car accident after suffering a depression attack."
Cheng Zhiyuan paused, and his voice suddenly lowered.
"This is the apparent cause of death."
Shen Pianxian was slightly startled.
"Is there something else behind her death?"
"Yes, but no one dares to confirm it,"
"How long has Ye Qingshuang been dead?"
Cheng Zhiyuan thought for a moment and replied,
"Ten years ago, the same year my parents died."
Shen Pianpian: ...
It was as if there was some strange thread connecting everything together.
According to Ye Danggui, he and Chu Yan had known each other since childhood, so Chu Yan should have also lived in the imperial capital.
Eleven years ago, Chu Yan's parents died and Chu Yang fell ill.
A year later, Ye Qingshuang passed away, and the Ye family immigrated to Country A.
In the same year, Cheng Zhiyuan's parents passed away... Suddenly remembering something, Shen Pianpian's whole body suddenly froze.
Still in the same year, fifteen-year-old Cheng Zhiyuan was kidnapped while attending a banquet in Yungang, but in the end it was her mother who was killed instead of him.
Why did everything happen within those two years? It all seemed to have started with the death of Chu Yan's parents.
Is there any connection between these things?
If so, what kind of terrible truth would that be and what kind of bold culprit would dare to cause so many terrible deaths and endless hatred among such a big family.
In the warm hotel room late at night, Shen Pianpian shuddered abruptly.
