The sudden downfall of the Su family had a significant impact on the business circles of Liangcheng and even the whole country, and at the same time, it gave people a new understanding of the strength and power of the Yan clan.
The first to be affected were several large companies that usually cooperated closely with the Su family, which were all unable to bear the burden and declared bankruptcy.
The socialites who were just watching the spectacle without getting involved were all affected. One scandal after another trended on social media, and their former glory vanished, turning them into pariahs.
They were all sent abroad to seek refuge.
The warm spring behind Xingzhan Garden is shrouded in mist.
The bamboo forest in the distance rustled in the wind, bathed in warm sunlight, with a thick green mist spreading and dappled light and shadow.
A winding stone path leads through the bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves rustling softly. As you follow the path deeper into the forest, a bamboo house suddenly appears at the end.
The exterior of the bamboo house is exquisitely decorated, surrounded by a profusion of fresh flowers and tender grass, vibrant and lush, full of life.
A faint mist hangs over the edges, like the secluded abode of immortals who have fallen to earth.
Two round red lanterns swayed gently in the wind under the eaves.
As you approach the bamboo house, you realize that the cold air is biting and chills you to the bone.
Upon closer inspection, the flowers and plants were found to be frozen, frozen in their prime, when they were in full bloom and vibrant.
Inside the bamboo house, red silk was everywhere you looked. A pair of red candles flickered on the table, along with a pair of nuptial cups and a white jade wine pot.
The floor was made of cold jade, pure white and translucent, with cold air forming mist that surged and rolled upwards.
The entire room was thus chilled to the bone, filled with a pervasive cold.
On the cold jade bed, the bed curtains were lightly drawn.
The girl, dressed in a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, a bright red wedding gown, was quiet and well-behaved.
She was held in the arms of a man also dressed in a red robe. The man had a faint smile on his face, and both of them had their eyes closed, as if they were asleep.
The scene was beautiful and sweet, making others envious.
A beautiful scene of tranquility and peace.
But in reality, the girl had already lost all signs of life...
The curve of the man's lips softened further.
He was gentle to the point of being morbid, and he loved her morbidly.
If you want to keep her in a morbid way, and you can't, then just go with her.
She left, and his heart felt empty all of a sudden; he was lost and didn't know what to do.
Later, all I wanted to do was quietly stay with her, watching her sleeping face, and then I fell asleep myself.
That's fine too!
The group entered the bamboo forest with serious expressions, breaking the original tranquility and the routine that someone was trying to maintain.
The group hurried along, making their way towards the bamboo forest.
The leader was none other than Old Master Yan, who had officially stepped down at the Qingyan banquet a few days ago. His face was solemn, but he could not hide his anger. His lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were as sharp as a hawk's.
Bai Yi and Ji Chen followed closely behind him, their faces expressionless.
Looking at the tightly closed bamboo door, wisps of chilly mist seeped out from the cracks.
The old man stood in front of the door and said in a deep voice, "Open the door!"
The door was locked from the inside. Several people worked together to kick it open, and the moment the door opened, a strong chill rushed out.
Even the strong and robust men present couldn't help but shiver.
The crowd took a few steps back.
The old man snorted coldly, his eyes darkening, and he stepped inside first.
Bai was startled and quickly followed.
The festive scene inside the room came into view, and the old man's eyes paused slightly, his anger dissipating.
But his expression remained cold and stern, and his tone was harsh, "This is utterly absurd! Take him out of here!"
"yes!"
Yan Jingzhou lay on the cold jade bed for two whole days and two nights, and by this time he had already fallen into a deep shock.
