"what?"

Huo Xianglin was horrified when he heard this.

Yan Fangwei and Yan Zhiyu looked at each other.

"Wait here, and go up to see the specific situation."

Cheng Ruiyuan turned around and went upstairs.

Half an hour later, he came down, his brows looking even more wrinkled.

"The source of this fire was the room where Huo Yanchen and Pang Xinwen were imprisoned. It was the room where the charred body was found."

"I've checked. The body should be Pang Xinwen. She was the only person who died in the fire. As for Huo Yanchen... he's gone. I asked people to search the entire Huo family, but he was nowhere to be found."

It is not difficult to guess that Huo Yanchen must have escaped during the chaos just now.

Huo Xianglin's face turned livid.

"There was clearly nothing left in that room, so there was absolutely no possibility of a fire! This fire was definitely man-made!"

Yan Zhiyu: “.”

He really is worthy of being the male protagonist in the original novel... No, that's not right, he should be Pang Xinwen.

Even at this point, they are still stirring up trouble.

I have to say that Pang Xinwen is really a ruthless person. In order to go undercover in the Huo family, she had a full face plastic surgery. Now, in order to let Huo Yanchen escape, she sacrificed her life...

What a pity, the son I gave birth to turned out to be a super-male waste.

......

Because of the murder, the Huo family called the police. The police arrived soon and handled the follow-up matters. Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei wanted to go and take notes as eyewitnesses, but Cheng Ruiyuan shook his head.

"You are too tired, you should go back and rest. You can handle the things here... After all, you shouldn't be involved in this matter in the first place."

Cheng Ruiyuan personally escorted Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei to the door.

"I'm sorry to have startled you today."

Yan Fangwei shook her head: "You don't want to be like this either. This is all an accident."

While they were talking, Yan Zhiyu sat on the steps beside them, bored and playing with the dogtail grass in her hand. She, the superfluous person, had now learned to give in and leave them alone.

Cheng Ruiyuan was about to send Yan Fangwei and Yan Zhiyu home when suddenly an urgent voice came over:

"Little fish!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

The man coming from a distance looked extremely anxious, controlling the wheelchair under him, and in the blink of an eye he came in front of Yan Zhiyu. His cold eyes were filled with unconcealed concern, and he looked at Yan Zhiyu from head to toe.

"Are you okay?"

Yan Zhiyu blinked her eyes and said, "Nothing's wrong."

Hearing this, Lu Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good......"

At this time, Butler Wang caught up, panting.

Without even catching his breath, he began to explain rapidly.

"The young master was originally handling the affairs of the Huo family. When he heard that the Huo family's banquet caught fire, he immediately dropped his things and ran over without caring about anything... Fortunately, Miss Xiaoyu, you are okay!"

He spoke very quickly, almost skipping punctuation marks.

By the time 藺湛 wanted to stop it, it was too late.

The air was quiet for a moment.

The next second, Zhui Zhan cleared his throat, his eyes wandering: "...I'll take you back."

Cheng Ruiyuan glanced at him and took the initiative to give way.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

......

When Yan Zhiyu and Yan Fangwei returned, the Yan family had just received the news and were about to rush over. Seeing that they returned safely, they were relieved and expressed their gratitude to Li Zhan for sending them back.

When they heard the news that Huo Yanchen had escaped and Pang Xinwen was dead, the Yan family was speechless.

I thought the matter had been settled, but unexpectedly, this happened.

The fire at the Huo family could not be concealed.

Within a few days, the news spread throughout the circle of wealthy families in the imperial capital. The charred corpse and the missing Huo Yanchen... everyone was discussing this matter for a few days.

However, no new news came out.

Yan Zhiyu was very curious about this, and couldn't help but go to Yan Fangwei and said coquettishly, "Sister, why don't you ask Cheng Ruiyuan what happened next? I really want to know."

Yan Fangwei: "Why don't you ask yourself?"

Yan Zhiyu shook Yan Fangwei's arm: "Because I have his contact information!"

Yan Fangwei blushed, took out her cell phone and sent a message to Cheng Ruiyuan.

Yan Zhiyu waited with eyes wide open.

She was so curious that she wanted to know what was going on!

Cheng Ruiyuan replied in seconds.

Upon seeing the news, Yan Zhiyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
