After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 282 - 276: Sweet Dog Food Slapped on My Face

[Ah ah ah!! Brother, be careful!!]

[That scared me to death! Thankfully, Qin Yun caught him. If he had fallen like this, boohoo... too terrifying!!]

[At the moment I saw brother was about to fall, my heart nearly stopped!!]

[Thank you, Qin Yun, for saving brother! Beautiful and kind-hearted! Just for catching him! Followed, followed!!]

At this moment, Qin Yun, who was being praised for her beauty and kindness by everyone, just retracted her guilty little hand.

Pei Yan felt a pain in his waist, supported by Qin Yun. Pei Yan stood up smoothly, covering his mic, a familiar and soft voice whispered in Qin Yun’s ear, "Still mad?"

Yang Leqi, who had just seen Pei Yan fall, was startled for a moment, then saw Qin Yun had already reached out to support him.

Right after, she vaguely heard a sentence, not very clear, but she could vaguely guess what it was.

The hand she had just extended immediately drew back...

Realizing: Oh, Mr. Pei didn’t fall, it was a love show-off!!

Knowing Pei Yan didn’t really fall, approximately because Sister Yun was intentionally, she calmed down instantly.

Surely because she wasn’t there earlier, while changing batteries, Mr. Pei flirted with Sister Yun again and irritated her!

To smooth Sister Yun’s mood, he deliberately let her succeed.

Ah...

Sweet displays of affection kept slapping on the face.

Qin Yun smiled and cast a sidelong glance at Pei Yan upon hearing his words. There was no sign of anger in her eyes, but she still didn’t want to let Pei Yan off easily, she hummed twice and replied softly, "Still ok."

Even though the voice was lowered, because the mic was not off, some of it could still be vaguely heard.

[What’s ok?]

[Isn’t the same perspective?! What happened just now? I didn’t hear anyone else speaking!! Isn’t this a live broadcast? Why do I feel like I’m on another planet despite everything supposedly being synchronized?]

[Seems like I’m not the only one having this feeling...] 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

[So is Qin Yun whispering to someone? Are we not worthy of listening? I’m willing to pay!!]

"Are you alright?" Chen Yao withdrew the hand he was about to lend for support and the foot he had already stepped towards Pei Yan, and asked.

"Scared me to death, luckily Sister Yun managed to catch him in time." Wang Sirui patted her frightened chest.

Yang Leqi looked at Wang Sirui, who didn’t know anything, and just wanted to sigh: Too young indeed!!

"I’m fine." Pei Yan stood straight, calmly shaking his head.

Qin Yun also withdrew her supporting hand smoothly, secretly complaining: What an act.

"That’s good." Chen Yao nodded.

The group returned to the front hall and took out the evidence they found, each starting to discuss the evidence and suspect they found.

"Let me start; the three of us went to the rooms of the Seventh Aunt, the Prince, and the Prince’s fiancée. Let’s start with the Prince’s fiancée, she’s the simplest." Chen Yao stood up and laid out the evidence he found on the table.

Hearing the words fiancée, Yang Leqi’s scalp tingled with an unspeakable unease.

"We found several letters and things like flowers. Through the letters, we knew that the Prince’s fiancée actually had someone she loved, but her family didn’t agree, forcibly separating them and getting engaged to the Prince, sending her to the Prince Mansion. In the matter of the Old Prince’s death, she seems to have no suspicion, so she can be temporarily excluded from suspicion." Chen Yao said.

"I was originally innocent, I’m just here for a short stay, and besides, the Old Prince is my uncle, what conflict would be worth killing him?" Yang Leqi said naturally.

Chen Yao placed the Seventh Aunt’s evidence on the table, "Next is the Seventh Aunt, she has some suspicion, but I feel not much. We found some clues about the massacre of the Qi Family from her room. Turns out, she is the only daughter of the Qi Family. Back then, the Qi Family massacre was orchestrated by the Old Prince, so there’s a high chance of revenge. I don’t know if the Old Prince knew that the Seventh Aunt was from the Qi Family, but if he did, why would he leave her behind? However, the Seventh Aunt, although married, has always been confined in a dilapidated small courtyard, likely knowing."

"If it was for revenge, why would I wait all these years? I also seldom mingle with others, and I’m quite content with my current life, with food and drink, though the accommodation is shabby, no one disturbs me, I find it quite good." Qin Yun defended.

"Maybe the timing wasn’t right initially? Not familiar with the environment when you first came, but after getting familiar, started planning to find the right time, which happens to be today." Chen Yao thought for a bit and said.

"I don’t think it holds. You might say a year isn’t enough to get familiar with the Prince Mansion, but I’ve been here for five years! Besides, there’s nothing particularly enticing about this timing. Moreover, you know my relationship with the Old Prince is not good; do you think the Old Prince would stand still and let me kill him?" Qin Yun argued.

"That’s a point, but maybe someone helped you execute it because of a big connection with you, so temporarily keeping suspicion on you." Chen Yao pondered and nodded.

"Let me continue with the Prince’s guard; I just mentioned that it’s quite probable that if the Seventh Aunt had someone to kill, it was him, as they’re siblings!! Early on, due to health issues, he was sent out to apprentice, thus wasn’t home when the family was exterminated, found his entire family annihilated upon returning, and no sign of his sister, attempted to assassinate the Old Prince, got seriously injured, saved by the Prince, brought back to the Prince Mansion as a guard." Chen Yao laid out the evidence of the Prince’s guard.

"Speaking of this, it should be combined with the Prince’s account, as the three of them are actually acquainted. The Seventh Aunt didn’t live at the Qi Family when she was a kid but at a separate estate; the Prince used to favor residing at another estate, both estates were nearby. The Seventh Aunt saved the Prince during childhood, though not quite childhood sweethearts, there’s a connection."

"So relatively, I think the guard is more suspicious than the Seventh Aunt, just because of what the Seventh Aunt mentioned before; the Old Prince, even if not good, couldn’t possibly let someone stab him without any struggle, and the Seventh Aunt, regarding height and strength, hardly seems capable in targeting someone evidently much taller than her in a sober state, being killed without any sound, and escaping successfully. On the other hand, the guard could perfectly execute the assassination, in terms of height and combat ability, enabling him to retreat smoothly without being detected."

"In our search here, we suspected the guard more, followed by the Seventh Aunt. The Prince doesn’t have any necessity to kill; he has no condition. He is already the nailed-in successor of the Prince, as long as he doesn’t make major mistakes, no one can surpass him, and apart from that, there’s no reason to kill the Old Prince." Chen Yao said.
