When Old Madam Shen heard this, her gaze softened. Among her children and grandchildren, the one she liked the most was her youngest grandson, Shen Yuanbai, but the one she was most proud of was Shen Yuan, who was extremely capable at such a young age. She immediately nodded and said, “In that case, go and investigate. If Qing is really innocent, I naturally don’t want her to be wronged.” After a pause, she looked at Ren Wanyun and sneered, “However, I think your mother is crazy. If she is really out of her mind, lock her up and stop her from causing us trouble.”

Ren Wanyun was angry and resentful, and her face was red. At some point, Old Madam Shen had become more and more dissatisfied with her. Now, she was even humiliating her in front of her son. Even Chen Ruoqiu was looking at her mockingly.

Ren Wanyun only managed to catch her breath after Shen Yuan helped her back to Rosy Cloud Garden. She grabbed Shen Yuan’s arm and said, “Yuan, think of a way to save your sister. How can Qing really be involved? How can she be the murderer?”

“Mother, don’t worry.” Shen Yuan comforted her. “Now, Sister is suspected because the real murderer has yet to be found. Once the real murderer is found, Sister will naturally be freed.”

When Ren Wanyun heard that, it was as if she had found a straw to clutch at. Her eyes immediately lit up again. She asked happily, “When will the murderer be found? How long will your sister be locked up for? When will you find the murderer?”

Shen Yuan looked at Ren Wanyun. She looked very haggard. It had been a long time since she had applied makeup. Her skin looked old and dull, and her hair was very messy. She had always been a person who cared about her appearance, but now she looked like a different person.

And the cause of all this was just a girl who was once taken by everyone as an idiot.

Shen Yuan felt a headache coming on. He thought he was smart, but he did not expect that as soon as he returned to the capital, such a big mess would be thrust upon him. Ren Wanyun’s status in the mansion had plummeted. Not only was Shen Qing pregnant before marriage, but she was also involved in the massacre of Prince Yu.

For some reason, Shen Yuan suddenly thought of Shen Qing’s wedding day. That day, Shen Miao said to him, “No one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Perhaps all of a sudden, the road ahead will be cut off.”

Now, the path ahead for Shen Qing was really cut off. Even if there was a road, it would be an extremely bumpy road. She was the only one left alive in the entire Prince Yu’s mansion. At this point, Shen Yuan could almost say for a fact that the murderers didn’t kill Shen Qing not because they were merciful or sympathetic, but they wanted Shen Qing to suffer a life worse than death.

However, Shen Qing was just a little girl. Why would anyone be so brutal to a little girl? Was it Shen Miao? But how could Shen Miao have command over so many assassins who were killing to help her kill Prince Yu?

Shen Yuan’s eyes darkened. Regardless of whether the person behind this was Shen Miao or not, he had to get to the bottom of it. Since that person targeted Shen Qing, the second branch might be targeted too. Although Shen Qing was now in a difficult situation, it was by no means a dead end. He had to find out who was behind this and return the favor a thousand times over.

That was what Shen Yuan thought, but what he did not expect to happen was that just like Shen Miao said, “No one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Perhaps all of a sudden, the path ahead will be cut off.”

On the second day, his path was cut off and he was faced with a dead end.
