"Brother Mu Zhi, Brother Mu Yang, are you resting here today, or going back?"

“You were drunk before, and since it’s a long way, I was worried you wouldn’t feel comfortable in the car. I suddenly remembered that my family has a manor here, so I brought you here. I never expected… this would happen,” A-Zhen said.

“The person who made the false report will definitely be held accountable. They can’t get into this place, so they can’t frame me for something. I don’t know what their purpose was in reporting me for doing this.”

[Who is the whistleblower? Did they accidentally learn something and just want to cause me trouble, or do they have other motives? Have the Shen brothers noticed anything? I feel this matter cannot be delayed any longer; Rong Yu can't wait, and I'm also afraid that something might go wrong. I need to resolve this matter as soon as possible.]

Shen Muzhi remained calm and said, "The police will definitely hold people accountable for making baseless accusations without any evidence. Don't worry."

"I won't stay here any longer; I have some things to take care of back home," he added.

Shen Muyang quickly replied, "Since you're going back, I'll definitely go back with you. Mom even assigned me a task."

The two brothers pretended to be relaxed, but their backs were actually soaked with sweat.

Azhen naturally wouldn't stop them: "Then I won't go with you. I don't have much to do during the holiday, so I'll just stay at the manor for a while."

Upon hearing this, both brothers breathed a barely perceptible sigh of relief.

Azhen's smile deepened. They were truly afraid of her, but the Qiao family had so much money that they still couldn't bear to give it up.

Especially after learning that the manor also belonged to the Qiao family, an asset they were unaware of, they were even more likely to make all sorts of speculations based on this, and thus would not abandon their plans.

Even if she is dangerous, in their eyes she is just a love-struck fool.

If they just drag this out, once Rongyu is gone, everything will go according to their plan.

They were indeed very successful at first, and if it weren't for their final fate, the client would never have doubted them even until his death.

Since the Shen brothers were all leaving, Ning Xueren had even less reason to stay, and hurriedly bid farewell to Azhen.

So, only Azhen and Rongyu remained in the house.

Rongyu was still working on the test paper, while Azhen sat to the side, chatting with Rongyu from time to time, mostly about trivial things.

Where to go for fun, what fun things to do, what do you want to do in the future, etc.

Not a single word was what the Shen family wanted to hear.

"She never seems to discuss the specifics of Rong Yu's illness with him, but whenever she mentions something related, there's always something she can use against her." Shen Muyang scratched his head, looking somewhat impatient.

Shen Muzhi closed his eyes and said, "It might be because of the comments."

"What do you mean?" Shen Muyang didn't react for a moment. "What does this have to do with the bullet comments?"

Shen Muzhi took a deep breath before saying, "With a group of viewers here, and real-time comments, many things are not suitable to be shown to them. Even if she believes that she and the viewers are from two different dimensions and cannot interfere with each other, she still does not want to expose such things to countless eyes."

"Didn't you notice that after she could see the comments, she kept pretending not to see them? She didn't want the viewers to notice anything unusual."

"In summary, Qiao Zhen is actually very smart and unwilling to put herself in danger, even if the danger is very small."

Shen Muyang breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought she had noticed something was wrong with the comments. Bro, you really scared me."

“Probably not,” Shen Muzhi said. “She was unaware of this from the beginning. If she had known there was a problem with the comments, she wouldn’t have reacted this way. However, she wouldn’t reveal everything about herself in front of the comments.”

“If it were me, I would make the same choice as her, knowing that there is a group of viewers from other dimensions watching me, and I would be even better at disguising myself than she is. I might even… try to find a way to resolve this matter. I don’t want my every move to be watched.” “If it were you, would you want your every move to be observed?” Shen Muzhi looked at Shen Muyang.

Shen Muyang shook his head vigorously, saying that it really wouldn't work; just thinking about it sent chills down his spine, as there were absolutely no secrets left.

"Therefore, she will not reveal a single thing about Rongyu's illness."

Shen Muyang asked curiously, "Then how did she instruct those people to do it? You have to communicate with other people to do these things, right?"

“They might have used other methods,” Shen Muzhi said dismissively. “As long as my freedom and means are not restricted, even if countless eyes are watching me, I have countless ways to communicate with others. Besides, there are so many technological means available now.”

“Once the initial communication is good, subsequent communication will be easier. Often, as long as the other party calls her to report, she doesn’t need to say much; a few simple words are enough.”

"Of course, there might be even more covert ways of communication."

Shen Muyang stopped asking about that and instead said, "So what should we do next? It seems that her methods are becoming more and more extreme, and it's hard to find any evidence against her."

"There shouldn't be anything going on lately. She probably wants to check on the people around her."

"Let's just stall for time. As long as we're prepared, she won't succeed," Shen Muzhi said. "We miscalculated this time; we didn't expect her to be so well-prepared."

“Fortunately, the whistleblower is one of our own,” Shen Muyang said. “It’s a real shame, though. If only we could have sent her to jail.”

At that time, as members of the Shen family who are close to her, even if she does something wrong, as long as she is used properly, it will definitely be beneficial to them.

"I didn't even have a chance to talk to Ning Xueren today." Shen Muyang changed the subject; having just gone through something like this, he really wasn't in the mood.

"By the way, brother, how did you know Ning Xueren would receive the message and rush over?" Shen Muyang asked.

Shen Muzhi smiled faintly: "Haven't you realized that she actually still cares about you to some extent?"

Previously, I only knew that my third brother was infatuated with Ning Xueren, but I had never seen the two of them interact much.

When he saw Ning Xueren and his third brother greet each other today, he sensed something was wrong, so he sent someone a text message to test the waters.

As expected, Ning Xueren arrived in a hurry, seemingly still caring about her third brother.

Shen Muyang was immediately overjoyed and completely disoriented.

“Even if she treats you differently, there’s still a big gap between you two right now.” Shen Muzhi poured cold water on the idea. “Your current affection isn’t enough to make her give up everything, so you need to gain the Ning family’s favor first.”

Shen Muyang immediately deflated.

"Then you'll have to work hard, brother, and marry Qiao Zhen as soon as possible for our plan to work."

Shen Muyang counted the time. Qiao Zhen was seventeen years old. In three more years, Qiao Zhen would reach the legal marriage age and be able to get a marriage certificate.

"At that time, Sister Mengyan will have to suffer."

Shen Muzhi's eyes darkened: "She has her own ideas and won't be unhappy. On the contrary, she'll be even happier if things go further."

"This is only temporary; the place next to me will always be hers."

What is Qiao Zhen anyway? (End of Chapter)
