Capítulo 1221: Chapter 1221: The Death of Yan Weiyang 5

When she returned home in the evening, Xia Weibao saw Lu Hualiang sitting on the sofa in the living room, his brow furrowed tightly.

Xia Weibao was a bit surprised. Usually, when she came home, either he hadn’t gotten off work yet or he was in the study having a meeting.

It was rare to see him absent-minded in the living room.

Upon seeing her return, Lu Hualiang reached out his hand to her.

Xia Weibao was puzzled but still walked over.

Lu Hualiang held her in his arms, his chin resting on her shoulder, inhaling her fragrance, but he said nothing.

Xia Weibao sensed that something was on his mind, yet she didn’t ask, just quietly sitting on his lap.

Nobody moved; they maintained this posture for nearly half an hour before Lu Hualiang let her go.

Infected by his mood, Xia Weibao also grew solemn.

“Did something happen?”

Lu Hualiang didn’t speak; he just kept staring at her face, wondering who she really was.

Yan Weiyang was dead, and Yan Fei was frantically investigating the matter, trying to unearth the person who killed Yan Weiyang.

In the eyes of the Yan Family members, maybe He Xin had a grudge against Yan Weiyang and so killed her.

But he had a hunch that the person He Xin wanted to kill was not Yan Weiyang, but Yan Lingyi’s daughter.

Because just as Yan Weiyang died, Hong Qing disappeared.

Ever since he learned that the identities of Xia Weibao and Yan Weiyang were swapped, he had people keep an eye on two suspicious individuals.

The president of the military hospital, He Zhixin, and the director of Sunlight Orphanage, Hong Qing.

He Zhixin showed no abnormalities.

But Hong Qing suddenly vanished.

Whether it was the news of Yan Lingyi and Ma Xingfeng’s car accident and death years ago, Yan Weiyang’s death, or Hong Qing’s disappearance, there were no clues.

It’s as if there’s a pair of hands controlling everything behind the scenes.

This was deeply frustrating for Lu Hualiang, who had always been a master strategist, leaving him quite irritable.

Especially because this matter was closely related to Xia Weibao.

Lu Hualiang suddenly felt a bit relieved that he hadn’t exposed the truth about the identity swap. Otherwise, if He Xin truly intended to target Yan Lingyi’s daughter,

the person dead now could have been Xia Weibao.

Even the best defenses might miss something.

He could guard against one moment but not forever.

Yan Weiyang’s death was bizarre, and the cause of death hadn’t been found yet.

Without He Xin’s disappearance, they might have ruled it a suicide.

However, piecing everything together, it was definitely a murder.

But how was it done?

How did she control Yan Weiyang to jump down?

It was an indefensible situation.

The forensic doctor had already examined the body, and everything appeared normal.

These days, Yan Fei had been so irritable that he had lost his temper several times.

And Yan Lingyi had fallen seriously ill.

As the New Year approached, the Yan Family was in a gloomy state.

Lu Hualiang’s hands around Xia Weibao’s waist tightened steadily.

“I will keep you safe.”

No matter who she was or whom they were up against, he would keep her safe.

Xia Weibao looked bewildered, “What are you talking about?”

Each word separately made sense, but together, they didn’t understand.

“Nothing,” Lu Hualiang pinched her smooth face, “Don’t take any jobs for the New Year, let’s spend it with the Zhong Family.”

As a celebrity, there were no holidays, and during the New Year, they usually participated in various programs to make money.

She didn’t need to.

After all, she didn’t need to earn money.

Xia Weibao looked a bit troubled, “It depends on what Leng Yan says.”

Although she was familiar with Leng Yan, she was, after all, just an artist under Hongtu, and for a long winter vacation, she needed the company’s approval.

Lu Hualiang’s smile was cold and aloof, “He wouldn’t dare.”

The next day, when Xia Weibao returned to the company, she found Leng Yan looking at her with a murderous gaze.
