Ah Ruo meets with her mother, Aunt Yun, and discusses her relationship with Hu Shangke. She admits to developing feelings for him but is hesitant to fully commit, reflecting on her mother's and sister-in-law's struggles in wealthy marriages. Ah Ruo expresses a desire for a relationship she can control, unlike the complicated dynamics of powerful men. The conversation shifts to Lu Sisi and her father's problematic standing within the Yang Family.

Chapter 1452: Chapter 435: [Bestowing Favor and Receiving Favor]_2

The girl who married into a wealthy family had a few good years.

But the Yang Family’s second son originally married her in a confused state, and I guess after some years, when the initial enthusiasm faded, he returned to his old ways and started seeing other women. That girl fought many battles over the years but couldn’t keep her man in check.

As for that case, from what I later heard, the Yang Family’s second son kept a woman outside, which led to a confrontation with Lu Sisi’s mother, who was the lady in question.

Their paths crossed in a restaurant, and things got physical.

Then, on that night, the family of four returned home, and both the Yang Family’s second son and the lady fell from the balcony.

It was a high building, and when they fell, they were in such bad shape that the night guards who found them called the police.

And as for Lu Sisi, she vanished that very night after her parents fell.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Yun slowly asked, “What was the police’s conclusion?”

“The police didn’t have a conclusion, only a hypothesis.

Currently, they suspect that the couple had conflicts due to the man’s infidelity. The physical confrontation in the restaurant with the mistress intensified the conflict.

So, when they returned home that night, the couple fought on the balcony, possibly pushing or having another physical struggle, resulting in both falling.

And Lu Sisi disappeared that night, taking the young Yang Family son, both siblings ran away, and haven’t been found since.”

Aunt Yun clicked her tongue and frowned, “Didn’t the police suspect Lu Sisi? Logically, she was the only adult present besides the deceased.

The two were dead, yet she was the first to run away, didn’t the police suspect her?”

“They did.”, Ah Ruo nodded, “But as I later heard, the police found signs of mutual hitting on the deceased’s bodies, scratches and such, and also traces of fighting on the balcony.

But there were no fingerprints of Lu Sisi found at the scene, only those of the deceased.

Most importantly, under the fingernails of the deceased woman, Lu Sisi’s mother, skin tissue belonging to the man was found… presumed to have been left while she scratched him during a fight.

The current police hypothesis is: that night, at home, the deceased exploded into a violent confrontation, both ending up falling.

And Lu Sisi, should have, in the fear from the fight between her parents, held her younger brother and hid in the room—this sort of situation often occurs in domestic violence cases and is logical reasoning.

No matter what, since there was no trace left by Lu Sisi at the scene, the police did not list her as a key suspect.

Currently, the speculation is that she was profoundly impacted psychologically by her parents’ mutual violence and death, causing her to flee with her brother.

A sort of… escape from reality.

But regardless, the police are still searching for Lu Sisi, and until they find her, they can’t close the case.”

Aunt Yun thought for a few seconds, her expression slightly changed.

“Mommy?” Miss Ah Ruo noticed Aunt Yun’s change of expression and instinctively asked.

Aunt Yun glanced outside the living room door to make sure no one was listening, then lowered her voice slightly, “This doesn’t seem right.”

“Hmm?”

“That Chen Yan is a high and mighty person, endowed with those magical abilities. That Lu Sisi is his girlfriend, and with such a significant event at her home, how could he stand idly by?

If Lu Sisi was indeed mentally shattered and ran away, others might not find her, but how could someone with such great ability as Chen Yan not find her?

Perhaps he found her but then hid her away?”

“But why hide her?” Ah Ruo instinctively asked.

“…”, Aunt Yun remained silent, quietly watching her daughter.

Ah Ruo suddenly understood but her expression changed, “Mom, you mean, this murder case is related to Lu Sisi?”

Then she shook her head and said, “Impossible! After I arrived in Jinling Prefecture, I interacted with Chen Yan and Lu Sisi several times. Lu Sisi is a gentle and kind girl by nature, like flowing water, she definitely isn’t someone who can kill!

Plus, with her parents… patricide and matricide are against human values, she absolutely couldn’t do such a thing!”

Aunt Yun shook her head, her tone becoming calm, “I’m merely guessing casually, yes, just carelessly guessing.

No matter what, this matter is already unrelated to us. Just… in the future in Jinling Prefecture, if you deal with Chen Yan and these people again, you should remain cautious.

These cultivation experts… for us mere mortals, it’s good to interact, but best not to get too deeply embroiled with them.”

Upon saying this, Aunt Yun got up and headed to the back room, soon emerging with a thermos flask.

She had asked Chu Keqing carefully about this concoction today, it’s for body rehabilitation, supposed to extend life.

In other words, this concoction was brewed from Heavenly Repair Pills.

When Chu Keqing came, Aunt Yun asked carefully. She even asked a question: if only one bowl of this potion is drunk, and one is left undrunk, would that be a problem.

Then Chu Keqing listened, without speaking, quietly watching Aunt Yun, staring for several seconds.

Just when Aunt Yun’s heart started racing, fearing that Chu Keqing might refuse, she heard Chu Keqing softly sigh, “Pity the hearts of parents everywhere. Parents love their children dearly, thinking deeply for them…”
