Wan Qiqi and Chen Yongnian exchanged a glance and briefly recounted the events.
However, they did not mention the points of their suspicion.
It would be best if Chen Yongxing knew the version of events that everyone already knew.
Chen Yongxing was still shocked when he heard this, and exclaimed, "I never imagined that Lord Fang would die like this!"
Wan Qiqi didn't say anything more.
That night, Wan Qiqi lay in Chen Yongnian's arms, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
She didn't know if she was feeling a bit shy in the new environment or if she had too many things on her mind.
Chen Yongnian was also awake, and asked in a low voice, "Are you worried about your brother?"
"Going to such a far place, I don't even know if there are any reliable people there!" Wan Qiqi sighed and buried her head in Chen Yongnian's chest.
"You must trust your brother. Since he has earned Old Master Xu's approval, he must have his own abilities!" Chen Yongnian gently patted Wan Qiqi's back.
“He’s capable. It’s easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. Who can say for sure if there’s someone in the shadows who wants to harm him?” Wan Qiqi was still worried.

"Qiqi, I think you don't need to worry about him. Instead, you should focus on yourself. He can't let go of you the most! If you're safe and sound, he won't be distracted!"
"That's right! You're right!"
"How about a reward?" Chen Yongnian asked.
"Okay!" Wan Qiqi wanted to look up and kiss Chen Yongnian's cheek, but because it was too dark, she didn't notice and kissed Chen Yongnian's lips instead.
Chen Yongnian's lips went limp.
Just as her lips parted, he held Wan Qiqi's head and kissed her deeply.
Wan Qiqi was so stunned by Chen Yong's youthful appearance that she was completely bewildered.
After a while, she realized that she would be oversleeping again tomorrow!
