“How do you know that Chu Yiran is…”
Yu Qingwan suddenly stopped.
However, Yan Jinyu had already gotten the answer she wanted.
Now, she was 100% sure that Chu Yiran was Liu Guang’s daughter.
However, it was impossible to tell from her face that this was her purpose. She raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, “Don’t care how I know. You just have to tell me if there’s anyone else other than Liu Junqing and Chu Yiran.”
Hearing Yan Jinyu’s words, not to mention the others, even Yin Jiujin was a little surprised.
Chu Yiran?
He finally knew why the young lady sounded strange when she mentioned Chu Yiran that day. It turned out that Chu Yiran was Liu Guang’s daughter.
The woman didn’t deny it just now, which meant part of the reason that Liu Junqing was exposed was indeed to cover Chu Yiran.
This was easier for him to accept than the reason for Liu Junqing killing him in a fit of anger for Yu Qingwan.
Although this completely confirmed Liu Junqing’s betrayal, it at least meant that Liu Junqing wasn’t that lousy.
Be it as one of their own people or enemies, it was not easy for them to sacrifice themselves for their teammates.
Yin Jiujin retracted his thoughts and looked at Yan Jinyu.
His expression was gentle.
The young lady was really smart. She was really good at making people talk.
“No, there’s no one else!”
Yan Jinyu waved the dagger in her hand and smiled. She tilted her head and looked at her, “You have to think it through first. Otherwise, my dagger… Oh, this dagger is yours. I think you should know best if the dagger is sharp or not.”
“Although the dagger is very sharp, I’ve seen many tortures designed with a sharp dagger on Ghost Slaughter Island back then. Not to mention you, even those big men who made a living on the tip of the blade back then couldn’t withstand such torture…”
“I don’t know! I really don’t know!” Yu Qingwan hugged her head and screamed.
“I don’t know anything. There’s no one else. I only know Chu Yiran! Don’t, don’t…”
Yan Jinyu watched this scene coldly.
Yu Qingwan…
She actually seemed to know what torture she was talking about.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m just saying. I won’t do such a cruel punishment myself. If you don’t know, so be it. Do you have to be so frightened?”
Yu Qingwan wanted to glare at her and scold her for being rude.
But she didn’t dare to.
She had also lived on Ghost Slaughter Island for some time when she was young.
At that time, she happened to see Ghost Slaughter Island publicly deal with the traitors.
She couldn’t eat for the entire week and vomited the moment she ate.
“I wonder if there’s anyone else. You should know if Liu Guang has a hiding place in the capital or somewhere else, right?”
“I don’t know! I don’t know! I don’t know anything!”
If she hadn’t hesitated when she said this, Yan Jinyu would have believed her even if she had only hesitated for less than a second.
She didn’t expect Yu Qingwan to actually know Liu Guang’s hiding place. This was really… a pleasant surprise.
Regardless of whether the place she knew was indeed where Liu Guang was hiding now, it was still fine as she could destroy one more place, right? Anyway, they were not at a disadvantage.
She bent down and raised Yu Qingwan’s chin again. “Look at me and repeat what you just said.”
Her smile was clear and innocent, but it made Yu Qingwan feel as if an evil ghost was trying to take her life.
“I-I-I…”
“I believe Miss Yu Qingwan is a smart person. It’s your decision to say or not to say it. Of course, whether you live or die depends on your decision too.”
As she spoke, she spun the dagger around her neck.
Yu Qingwan tensed up.
“The southern part of the city! The no.10 villa in the wealthy district of the southern part of the city! That’s all I know. Let me go, let me…” go.
Before she could finish speaking.
The dagger sank in.
She kept vomiting blood, but she already couldn’t speak. She stared at Yan Jinyu in disbelief.
Yan Jinyu clapped her hands and retracted her leg. She sneered, “I climbed out of a pile of dead people. I won’t be soft-hearted towards those who want to kill me.”
“Do you think I didn’t keep my word? Not only do you lust after my man, but you also want to kill me. How could you be naive enough to think that I would let you off? Could it be that in your eyes, I look like a good person?”
“Speaking of which, you chose to take the risk and make a move yourself today because you realized that Brother Nine had sent someone to watch over you. You didn’t have the chance to ask others for help, right?”
“Since you’ve already realized that you’re being watched, why don’t you think of a way to slip away? Not only do you not think of a way to slip away, but you even overestimate yourself and send yourself to me. Is there really nothing wrong with your brain?”
Yu Qingwan spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.
She completely stopped breathing.
She died with grievances.
At this moment, everyone present, including Yin Jiujin, finally reacted.
Many people felt their scalps tingle when they reacted.
She actually stabbed the dagger down without even blinking. She was ruthless and cruel!
They now believed that she was really the rumored number one killer who killed without batting an eyelid!
They were even more respectful to Yan Jinyu, their future mistress!
Yin Jiujin returned to his senses and pursed his lips as he walked towards Yan Jinyu.
The others were stunned by Yan Jinyu’s ruthlessness and cruelty, but Yin Jiujin’s heart ached for her.
Yin Jiujin saw Yan Jinyu’s fingers curl up a little when she retracted her hand after the dagger was stabbed in.
It was understandable that she was ruthless.
However, there was also a barrier in her psyche.
Up until now, even if countless people had died at her hands, even if her so-called “illness” had almost recovered, she was affected.
Yin Jiujin walked over and held her hand. He instructed Cheng Lin, “Clean this up.”
“…Yes.” Even Cheng Lin was shocked by Yan Jinyu’s ruthlessness.
“Master Nine…” Meng Zhao was extremely ashamed. He wanted to apologize to Yin Jiujin, but Yin Jiujin didn’t even look at him. He held Yan Jinyu’s hand and left.
Cheng Lin hurriedly stopped him, “Uncle Meng, Master Nine has always been clear about rewards and punishments. You were also deceived too, so even if Master Nine wants to punish you, it won’t be too severe. Don’t worry.”
In reality, Cheng Lin didn’t want Meng Zhao to provoke Master Nine at this time.
No matter what, Meng Zhao had lured the wolf into the house. He would only anger Master Nine and delay Master Nine if he went to Master Nine now.
And Master Nine obviously had something else to do now.
Moving his lips, Meng Zhao wanted to say that this wasn’t what he was worried about. He felt guilty towards Master Nine.
However, he didn’t say anything in the end.
A wrong was a wrong.
He didn’t have the face to ask for Master Nine’s forgiveness.
Looking at Yu Qingwan, who had died with remaining grievances, Meng Zhao felt very complicated.
He was very disappointed to know that Yu Qingwan had been lying to him from the beginning and scheming against him. However, he still felt very uncomfortable seeing her corpse lying there now.
“Thank you. I’ll leave this to you. I’m feeling a little unwell. I’ll go back and rest first.”

Yin Jiujin pulled Yan Jinyu away and headed straight for the nearest washroom.
At the sink, he turned on the tap and held Yan Jinyu’s slender hands in his palm. He washed them for her bit by bit.
Yan Jinyu didn’t have any special reaction. She was a little dazed and let him do whatever he wanted.
He carefully washed her hands and even took a tissue to help her wipe them dry. Only then did Yin Jiujin lead her out of the washroom.
The two of them arrived at the extremely lush courtyard outside. Yin Jiujin pulled her into his arms and kissed her for a while before hugging her and saying, “Didn’t I tell you in the past that you don’t have to do it yourself?”
“Not to mention that we are so many subordinates around and they can totally do it for a small fry, I’m still by your side. You can let me help you kill whoever you want.”
“I’ll feel better if I settle the person who wants to kill me personally.”
She wrapped her arms around his waist. “It’s just that I feel a little disgusted when the blood spills on my hands. Brother Nine, you’re just too nervous. This isn’t the first time I’ve killed someone.”
She wasn’t lying. She really just felt disgusted.
Indeed, it was better to kill without seeing blood.
She let go of Yin Jiujin and looked up at him. “On the other hand, Brother Nine, did I scare you just now? Do you think I’m especially ruthless and cruel?”
Before Yin Jiujin could reply, Yan Jinyu said, “But during those years on Ghost Slaughter Island, that was how I survived, especially when I didn’t have this lethal weapon.”
As she spoke, she even raised her left hand and revealed the “watch” on her wrist.
Yin Jiujin held her waist with one hand and held her left hand with the other. He caressed her “watch” with a deep gaze.
Yes, she had assembled her weapon herself, but how could she have such a weapon when she had just arrived at Ghost Slaughter Island?
Even if she did, she might not be able to use it as she pleased like now.
And how did she survive on Ghost Slaughter Island before she had this weapon?
“When did you assemble this?”
“When I was about five years old. I happened to get some material at that time and made it myself.”
“However, it took me almost three years to wield it as I pleased.” Her so-called ease of use meant when she was completely able to block the dense rain of bullets.
Five years old…
Yin Jiujin’s heart ached when he thought of such a small figure shuttling through the rain of bullets. His eyes turned red.
He hugged her in his arms again, this time especially tightly. “With me by your side in the future, it’s not like you have to do anything. Let me kill whoever you want, okay?”
Feeling his heartache and worry, Yan Jinyu leaned in his arms and replied softly, “Alright.”
Indeed, she had frightened him earlier.
“There’s no time to lose. Brother Nine, let’s go to the wealthy district in the south of the city to take a look.”

Half an hour later, in a courtyard in the capital.
“Dead?”
“Yes, Father. I just received news that she died at the hands of ‘Chi’,” Liu Yu said.
In the courtyard, Liu Guang sat in the wheelchair and frowned heavily, “Does she know about Yiran?”
“I don’t think so. If Liu Junqing wanted to protect her, he wouldn’t have told her about this. If Liu Junqing didn’t care about her so much, he wouldn’t have told her such a secret either,” Liu Yu said very confidently.
“That’s good.”
“Does she know other secrets?” Liu Guang asked Hei Yao behind him.
“She had acted without orders previously. On account of Junqing, I only asked you to warn her personally. You’ve interacted with her before, so you should know her better.”
“I don’t know her well.” Hei Yao was still expressionless.
“However, you can rest assured. She’s a fool who knows that she’s already targeted by the other party but doesn’t think of any ways to escape. It’s impossible for her to know any secrets.”
“That’s good.”
“It’s not good for us to stay in one place for too long. Let’s move immediately.”
After saying that, he pushed his wheelchair away.
Liu Yu hurriedly followed and pushed him.
Hei Yao looked at their retreating backs. His eyelashes were lowered, and the emotions in his eyes could not be seen.
After a while, just as he was about to slowly follow them, a voice came from behind. “The person whom they’re talking about and died at Eldest Miss Yan’s hands, actually knows some secrets, right?”
Hei Yao turned back and saw Lind Jones standing there.
His wheelchair was close by and was pushed by the masked man.
Lind Jones looked interested as if he had seen through Hei Yao.
However, Hei Yao said nothing. He glanced at him and turned to leave expressionlessly.
Lind Jones looked at his retreating back and suddenly laughed.
This Hei Yao was really interesting. He had pretended to be injured and had yet to recover, but Hei Yao acted as if he did not notice that when he saw him.
He treated him like air.
He would never believe that Hei Yao had no problems.
It was a pity that Liu Guang actually trusted Hei Yao so much.
The masked man pushed the wheelchair up and Lind Jones sat in it. He looked like he was seriously injured again.
“I heard that your university has already started its reporting and school is starting the day after tomorrow. Aren’t you going back?”
“What do you think?”
“Alright, I can’t out-talk you. It doesn’t matter if you take leave or report in later. Contact the school yourself. Don’t delay your studies. After this matter is over, go back to school.”
“With your tone, those who don’t know might think that you’re my form teacher.”
“I was your form teacher to begin with. Of course, I mean in the past.”
“…You don’t have to worry about me. I have my own arrangements. On the other hand, you were too rash just now. You shouldn’t have shown Hei Yao directly.”
“What are you afraid of? Hei Yao might not be an enemy either.”
“It’s not like you to trust others so easily.”
“You’re wrong. I didn’t trust anyone easily. I only dared to say it out loud because I was sure that Hei Yao wasn’t an enemy.”
“What’s the basis?”
“My intuition.”

“…”
The two of them walked away.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin arrived at the wealthy district in the south of the city.
They headed for Villa No.10 among the cluster of villas..
