Ye An clenched his fists and lowered his voice: "Speak!"
The person on the other end of the phone reported respectfully: "Ye Xiao went to the Xu family today and met Liang Wanrou. The two had an argument."
"Judging from the situation at the time, Ye Xiao seemed to be threatened by Liang Wanrou."
"In addition, I just received news that Xu Sen fell down the stairs and died."
Ye An's pupils dilated in shock. "You mean Xu Sen is actually dead?!"
"Yes, the Xu family has already begun setting up a mourning hall and preparing for the funeral."
Ye An narrowed his eyes, an endless chill emanating from them. "I understand. Continue to monitor Ye Xiao's every move, and report any abnormalities immediately."
"yes."
Ye An hung up the phone, still gripping it tightly, trying to process the impact of the two pieces of news on him.
Why would Ye Xiao go to see Liang Wanrou?!
If Jiajia were still alive, Ye Xiao might go there to swagger around and mock how miserable Jiajia's life was.
But Jiajia is already dead, so why would Ye Xiao go to the Xu family?!
For Ye Xiao right now, the biggest threats are Xiao Yun and Jia Jia. Could it be...?
Ye An's eyes suddenly widened. Did Ye Xiao guess that Jiajia was still alive?!
He immediately opened the files on his phone, which contained information about Ye Xiao's movements in Beijing over the years.
The densely packed itinerary table categorized and summarized the number of times Ye Xiao came to Beijing.
Because of her relationship with Ren Anjing, Ye Xiao came to Beijing quite often.
Ye Xiao visited three times in the year Ye Jianjia had her car accident.
However, because so much time has passed, it is impossible to determine whether Ye Xiao and Liang Wanrou had any contact back then.
Ye An's intuition told him that Ye Xiao's approach to Liang Wanrou at this time must be because she guessed that Jiajia was still alive and that it must be related to Liang Wanrou.
Thinking of this, a murderous glint flashed in Ye An's eyes, and he immediately arranged for his men to keep an eye on the Xu family.

On the other side, Xu Qingyun arrived at the coffee shop where she had arranged to meet Xu Sen.
It's already past 2 a.m., and almost no one is drinking coffee, so the shop is extremely quiet.
Xu Qingyun waited for an hour, but Xu Sen never showed up, and her patience was completely exhausted.
She immediately dialed the number, and it took a long time for a maid to answer it.
Before Xu Qingyun could question Xu Sen about why he hadn't come, the sound of a servant crying came from the other side, "Is it the second young lady? Master... Master is gone."
"What did you say?!" Xu Qingyun was shocked and immediately stood up from her chair.
In the dead of night, in an empty shop, her voice was particularly abrupt.
The maid kept crying, "The master fell down the stairs and he's dead."
Xu Qingyun felt waves of chill rising up her body.
Another fall down the stairs!
My grandfather also fell down the stairs and fell into a coma. He woke up ten years later, but soon died.
This time, however, Xu Sen lost his life!
What a coincidence!
The stairs in the Xu family villa are all carpeted, making them absolutely slip-resistant and impossible to slip on.
Xu Sen values his life; he would definitely grab the handrail when going downstairs, so how could he possibly fall?!
Without a doubt, it was man-made.
Xu Sen contacted her, and just as he was about to meet her, this incident occurred. Isn't this murder to silence her?!
Besides Liang Wanrou, there is only Xu Jia.
Why bother silencing them?!
Was Liang Wanrou worried about being exposed for killing her grandfather and going to jail, or was there a deeper reason?
Xu Qingyun was in a state of confusion and immediately paid the bill and left.
Just then, Ji Hanchen's Bentley pulled up in front of the coffee shop.
The car window rolled down, and Ji Hanchen said in a deep voice, "Yunyun, get in the car."
Xu Qingyun opened the car door, her brows furrowing slightly: "Why are you here?"
“I’m worried about you, and I have something to show you.” Ji Hanchen said, taking out his phone and opening a surveillance video.
Xu Qingyun's expression grew even colder after reading it. "Ye Xiao went to find Liang Wanrou?!"
"Yes. Xu Sen is dead, did you know?"
Xu Qingyun nodded, "I just found out."
Ji Hanchen scoffed, his voice icy, "What a coincidence. There's definitely something fishy going on. Your stepmother is trying to silence you."
Ji Hanchen hit the nail on the head, getting straight to the point.
Xu Qingyun nodded: "Let's go take a look."
"Jiang Xun, go to the Xu family." Ji Hanchen's voice was sharp.
The car drove for twenty minutes and arrived at the Xu family's villa.
The room was brightly lit, and servants were busy making arrangements for Xu Sen's funeral.
The door was open, and Xu Qingyun and Ji Hanchen walked in together.
"Second Miss, you're back." A middle-aged woman greeted her, her eyes swollen from crying.
This is the maid who spoke to Xu Qingyun on the phone.
Xu Qingyun nodded and followed Ji Hanchen inside.
"Second Miss, Master is in the Buddhist hall. Please go there yourself. I still have things to attend to."
"Okay, go ahead and get busy." Xu Qingyun agreed, then looked towards the direction of the Buddhist hall, where Liang Wanrou's sobbing could be faintly heard.
"Your stepmother is a Buddhist?" Ji Hanchen sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.
Xu Qingyun nodded, "The Buddhist temple was started the year my mother died. Liang Wanrou was very devout; she would eat vegetarian food on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month and pray in the temple every day. She had done many evil deeds and wanted to seek Buddha's blessing."
Ji Hanchen also sneered, feeling nauseous.
The two arrived at the Buddhist hall.
In the center of the Buddhist hall, there was a coffin. Xu Sen was lying inside, dressed only in his burial clothes and not yet made up. His face was covered with many bluish-purple patches, all from the rapid bleeding.
Liang Wanrou was kneeling on the ground, her voice completely hoarse from crying. When she saw Xu Qingyun, she cried even more bitterly, "Ah Sen, come and see, Xiaoyun is here, she's come to see you."
