As the cardboard box was opened, all I saw was white.

There was actually a large bunch of white chrysanthemums in the cardboard box, tied into a bouquet with a black ribbon, and small white words were printed on the end of the ribbon.

It is a clear character "甸".

Such a bouquet of flowers should be used to commemorate the deceased or to attend funerals.

But now it is openly displayed in the alley, adding a sense of inexplicable coldness and viciousness in the middle of the night.

Ruan Xingchen's expression turned cold.

Who would give her a bouquet of flowers like this?

"Ma'am, what's wrong? You look so serious."

Huo Yan poured her a glass of water, his eyes fell on the bouquet of chrysanthemums, and his expression suddenly became gloomy.

He took the flowers coldly and threw them directly into the trash can. His voice was icy: "Who is so boring?"

Ruan Xingchen shook her head, and only after the flowers were thrown away did she realize there was a postcard at the bottom of the cardboard box.

Her photo was turned into black and white, like a posthumous photo.

Written on it in large red gel pen was the word "Go to hell!", and the resentment expressed in it almost became tangible, rushing towards him.

To be honest, it is really shocking to see such a pile of funeral-like things in front of us.

Huo Yan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He slammed his palm on the table and shouted angrily, "Damn it!"

Who dares to curse her like this?

He was extremely angry, but Ruan Xingchen remained relatively calm.

"The label on the courier box did not contain the sender's information."

She glanced outside the cardboard box and said coldly, "Isn't there a surveillance camera at the door? We'll find out after we investigate."

After this happened, the two of them had no intention of sleeping and turned to look at the surveillance video from the camera at the door.

The cartons were delivered in the evening.

The person who delivered the cardboard box seemed to know that they were all not at home. He put the things at the door of the Huo family and turned around and left without even looking back.

And he obviously came prepared.

He was wearing a black shirt and black pants, wrapped up tightly, and even had a black baseball cap on his head.

From the moment he walked into the camera's range, he kept his hat brim pulled down and his head bowed, making it impossible to see his specific appearance.

All I could see was that he was a thin and short man.

Huo Yan's eyes turned cold.

"It was intentional."

Ruan Xingchen lowered his eyes, his slender white fingertips casually fiddling with the edge of the cardboard box. A hint of coldness etched in his eyes as he said, "It seems he has quite a grudge against me."

On that black and white photo, the bright red words "Go to hell!" were shocking, as if written in blood, with a kind of hatred that could be felt through the words.

Who could hate her so much?

"He's just a villain who hides his head and shows his tail, afraid to show himself to others."

Holding her slender wrist, there was a cold sharpness in his dark pupils.

Huo Yan said coldly, "The rats in the gutter can only do such dirty little things and use such ghostly tricks. As long as I am here, no one can touch the madam."

He held her in his arms and said softly, "Don't worry, Madam."

"I'm not worried."

There was gentleness in Ruan Xingchen's eyes.

With him around, she is not afraid of any storm.

She hugged the man with her backhand, her hands climbing under his armpits to hold his shoulders, and whispered, "Mr. Huo, don't be angry at these villains. They're just some disgusting tricks... one day they'll be exposed."

Huo Yan hugged her and closed his eyes slightly to hide the murderous intent that was almost tangible in his eyes.

Even though he knew that the black and white photo was fake, he still felt anger welling up in his chest when he saw someone dare to curse her like that.

He wished he could pull out the person hiding behind him and cut him into pieces to vent his hatred.

There was only a cardboard box. When I entered the express delivery number on it into the computer, I found nothing. It seemed that it was useless except to indicate that it was sent to Ruan Xingchen.

This matter can only be put aside for the time being.

But since something like this has just happened, it is hard to feel completely at ease.

When he woke up the next day, Huo Yan arranged for more people to guard around the Huo family to prevent any danger from occurring at home.

After he finished his breakfast, he looked at Ruan Xingchen beside him with his dark eyes and whispered, "There is no class today. Madam, do you want to go to the company with me?"

"Brother, why are you so clingy?"

Huo Chenglin looked unbearable and deliberately said, "You even have to bring your sister-in-law with you to work. Brother, aren't you afraid that your subordinates in the company will laugh at you for being a wife-loving man?"

At times like this, he especially missed Huo Qianqian who was still in Linjia Village.

Although it's a bit stupid, but cooperating with him at times like this always pays off.

Now everyone has something to do. My sister-in-law has to go to school and deal with company affairs at the same time, so we have less and less time to spend together.

They also want to be with the eldest sister-in-law!

Even if they do nothing and just do their own things, as long as the sister-in-law is there, their lives seem to have a backbone.

Ning Qiuqiu, who has a lively personality, joined in the fun with a smile: "Yeah, brother-in-law, are you really that dependent on your cousin? You even have to bring me to work. Does this mean you're inseparable and can't be apart for even a moment?"

As he said this, he blinked mischievously.
