So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Seeing that Ling Changfeng's attitude had softened, Liu Zhu and Liu Ying exchanged glances and then knelt behind Ling Jiuan together, their tones full of earnestness.

"Master, all of this evidence can be verified and is absolutely true. Please stand up for the deceased lady and seek justice for the master!"

Although their voices were soft, every word they spoke was sonorous and full of unquestionable power.

In their opinion, Ling Changfeng should believe it once he sees the evidence.

But now, they found that they seemed to have guessed wrong.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lan cried even harder, her makeup was a little spotty, but she still tried hard to maintain her last bit of dignity.

"My dear husband, you have to believe me! Over the years, I have always respected you. How could you do such a vicious thing..."

As she spoke, she wiped her tears with her sleeve, trying to touch Ling Changfeng's heart with her gentle gesture.

After being married for many years, she thought she had done well enough.

Ling Jiuan still said nothing, just stood there quietly, staring at Ling Changfeng without blinking. His eyes contained thousands of words, and seemed to be asking silent questions.

Ling Changfeng felt the heavy gaze. He glanced at Madam Lan with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"Investigate! This matter must be thoroughly investigated! If you are truly innocent, I will never wrongly accuse you; but if you really did it, I will not be lenient and will definitely give you the punishment you deserve."

Upon hearing this, Madam Lan stopped defending herself, but a barely perceptible gleam flashed in her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.

Then she bowed deeply, with a hint of determination in her voice.

"Please make the decision, Master! No matter what the result is, I am willing to accept it."

Ling Jiuan looked at this scene with mixed feelings.

She was not surprised by this result, because she knew very well that compared to her daughter who had been neglected for many years, Ling Changfeng might have some reservations about Ling Jiuze, but his trust in Madam Lan was deep-rooted.

This trust was like an insurmountable gap, making her feel helpless and sad.

What about her mother?

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the door, breaking the solemn atmosphere in the room.

"I beg the head of the Ling family to forgive me for coming here rashly."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yan appeared at the door.

He was dressed in a blue shirt and had a handsome face. He bowed to Ling Changfeng with a respectful and polite attitude.

His appearance was completely different from the red coat and spear he had before.

"Master Ling, you don't need to send anyone to investigate. I have brought the people involved here for you."

There was an unquestionable firmness in Chen Yan's words. He had already grasped the whole story before coming.

The next moment, disciples from the Chen family came in holding a few people.

Their expressions varied, some were panic-stricken, while others were filled with indignation and unwillingness.

Those people were Madam Lan’s elder brother, younger brother, and Madam Lan’s confidants from many years ago.

The confidant had been expelled from the Ling family by Madam Lan for some reasons a long time ago. Unexpectedly, he would be brought back by the Chen family today.

When Mrs. Lan saw this, her face instantly turned as pale as paper.

She stared with wide eyes at the people who were escorted in by the Chen family disciples, and a trace of despair and panic flashed in her eyes.

She never expected that Chen Yan would find these people so quickly and bring them to the Ling family.

Ling Changfeng was also shocked when he saw this scene.

He never expected that Chen Yan would bring the people involved in the case to him so directly.

He glanced at Madam Lan, then at the people who were escorted in, and he already understood about 70% of the situation.

"Chen Yan, what do you mean?"

Ling Changfeng asked in a deep voice, with a hint of majesty and confusion in his voice.

He wanted to know why Chen Yan would interfere so directly in the Ling family's affairs.

Chen Yan smiled slightly. He glanced at Ling Jiuan, then at the people who were escorted in, and spoke slowly.

"Master Ling, I just think that some things are better explained face to face. These people are the key figures involved in the death of my wife. I believe that as long as they speak, everything will be revealed."

Ling Jiuan turned around and looked at Chen Yan, who used to be carefree but now looked gentle and elegant, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

She didn't understand why Chen Yanyan suddenly became so serious and started to interfere in the Ling family's affairs.

But soon, she spoke calmly.

"How do you know these things?"

Chen Yan smiled awkwardly and touched his nose.

"We were being hunted all the way back to Xinghuo City! Although my father didn't want me to interfere in this matter directly, he also asked me to investigate the people who were hunting us."

"Through this investigation, we not only found out that the people chasing us were sent by Madam Lan and Second Young Master Ling, but we also accidentally found out about your mother. So I think it's necessary for me to join in the fun today and see if I can help you solve this problem."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, his heart moved.

She didn't expect that Chen Yan would care so much about her affairs.

She looked at Chen Yan, a complex emotion flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Thank you, Chen Yan."

Chen Yan waved his hand.

"You're welcome! I just think that some things can't just be let go. Madam Ling, Lin Zhiyao, is not only your wife, but also a rare legendary figure in Xinghuo City. I have always admired her for a long time. So when I found out about these things, I dared to intervene. I also ask the head of the Ling family to interrogate her in public to give Madam Ling justice and let the truth come to light."

Upon hearing this, Ling Changfeng looked at Chen Yan deeply.

He knew in his heart that Chen Yan's action was not simply out of personal admiration.

More likely, it was because he saw Ling Jiuan's talent and potential and wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to the Ling family.

But no matter what, Chen Yan's words touched his heart.

"it is good!"

Ling Changfeng responded in a deep voice.

"Then interrogate him in public! No matter what the result is, I will give everyone an explanation."

Hearing this, Madam Lan's face turned even paler. Her lips trembled as she tried to say something, but in the end she only let out a weak moan.

Ling Jiuze and Ling Jiuxi looked at each other, panic and anxiety flashing in their eyes.

They never imagined that things would develop to this point.

Ling Jiuan watched all this calmly.

She knew that she had been waiting for this moment for a long time. No matter what the result was, she had to make Madam Lan and Ling Jiuze pay the price and never recover.

Because this is what she must do for her mother and herself.
