No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

Lu Yuanzhou put away the evidence and stood up. Song Qingran grabbed his arm in fear and hid behind him. "Brother Yuanzhou, I'm scared. Maybe we should just leave this alone. We're just ordinary people; we can't fight them."

"I don't want anything to happen to you."

Seeing her concern, Lu Yuanzhou felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. Making the bad guys pay the price for those who died unjustly is what I should do. If we don't dare to do it just because the Jiang family has the Huo family backing them, then why do these laws even exist in this world?"

"Moreover, this girl's organs gave you a second life. For her sake, there are some things I must do."

"We can't refrain from doing it just because we're afraid."

Song Qingran: "What if all of this is fake?"

Lu Yuanzhou laughed: "Whether it's true or false, someone will naturally investigate. What we need to do is make these things public. The way the Wang family fell back then, and the methods of the Jiang family, have already served as a warning. What we need to do is make all these truths public!"

Song Qingran said in a slightly trembling voice, "If that's the case, the Jiang family must also be looking for this evidence. Will Sister Zhou Yan be in danger?"

Thinking about it, Lu Yuanzhou frowned. "As a witness, we can't let anything happen to her."

"Qingran, go to the hospital and wait for me. I'm going to find her."

Lu Yuanzhou didn't know much about Zhou Yan, but he did know some things. She had given Qingran a lot of help back then. She had returned from abroad, and Qingran had been taking care of her ever since. As for where she lived, Lu Yuanzhou also knew.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuanzhou grabbed the file bag in his hand and ran out without a moment's delay.

However, at this moment, Zhou Yan was personally escorted and watched by bodyguards as she got into a car that was heading towards the international airport.

When he made up his mind to let her leave, Zhou Yan's nationality was changed. If she were to return to China again without a special visa, she would be deported. He was... trying to drive her to the brink of despair.

When Lu Yuanzhou arrived, he saw Zhou Yan being restrained and taken to a car. However, he didn't want to alert them, so he chose to follow them in his car...

In addition, Lu Yuanzhou found a phone number in his contacts, and after explaining a few things, he called the police...

As night fell, in the empty room, Jiang Hua slept for a while. She had a nightmare in which her father was taken away by the police and eventually sentenced to death.

When she went to beg Pei Zhan to let her father go.

Pei Zhan simply looked at her indifferently, put his arm around Zhou Xu's waist, and walked past her.

This feeling intensely stimulated her heart; her dry eyes were swollen and somewhat painful, and the uncomfortable feeling in her heart swept over her again…

So many years of deception gave her the illusion that his feelings for her were only because she carried Zhou Xu's heart.

Including the reluctance in his eyes when he wanted her dead that time, it was also because of this heart.

Inside that dilapidated building, the footage being played showed glimpses of their family of four.

A young girl's feelings can never be hidden. Jiang Hua didn't believe Pei Zhan couldn't see that the girl had feelings for him, and that he liked her too.

So even after Zhou Xu's death, he was able to transfer this love to Song Qingran, who bore some resemblance to Zhou Xu.

"dad…"

Hearing the sound, Xu Qiulan immediately turned on the light. "Miss, you're awake?"

"Are you ok?"

"I'll call the nurse."

Jiang Hua looked haggard and dazed. "I...I don't want to stay here. I want to go home."

"Miss, the doctor said you need to stay in the hospital for observation and cannot go home yet."

"Sir, you're alright, Miss..."

Xu Ma couldn't stop her at all. Jiang Hua seemed to be deaf to everything at the moment. She pulled out the IV needle from the back of her hand, the needle piercing her delicate skin, and blood flowed down her hand.

Jiang Hua was in a daze. She pushed Xu Qiulan away; all she wanted was to leave this place…

On the deserted street, she remembered the way home. Due to the physical and mental torment, every step Jiang Hua took was unsteady and stumbling, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away.

The cold wind stung my face, and my bare feet left a footprint on the still-unmelted snow.

Every snowflake that gently fell on her skin was so cold and biting, yet she felt nothing at all; her whole heart felt numb.

She was crossing the street when a black sedan sped past her, nearly hitting her, but she was completely unaware.

Just then, Jiang Hua felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and her vision went black without warning. As she was about to fall, a strong hand caught her and held her firmly in its arms.

Don't know how long it has been.

As expected, Jiang Hua developed a high fever. Every time she got sick, it was a life-threatening danger for her. She lay in bed with a splitting headache, and it seemed like someone was talking in her ear, but she couldn't hear clearly.

Jiang Weiguo: "Actually, at this time, the person Huahua needs the most is you. You should stay by her side."

"No, she doesn't want to see me. If I appear in front of her at this time, she will only find it harder to accept. She has finally recovered, and I don't want her to go back to the way she was before."

Three years ago, Pei Zhan didn't dare to think whether she could have... weathered the blow caused by this incident.

If these things can't be kept secret in the end, Pei Zhan would rather let her know the whole truth when she's not so vulnerable.

The room temperature was set to the highest level, and the doctor administered a fever-reducing injection. After all this was done, everyone left the room. Jiang Hua, who was still unconscious, was helped up and leaned on his shoulder with her eyes closed. Pei Zhan put one hand under her shoulder and held a bowl of ginger soup to warm her up, feeding her spoonful by spoonful.

She started sweating after she finished drinking.

He helped her lie down, covered her with the blanket, and stroked her face again and again with his hot palms. "Everything will be alright."

As dawn approached, Jiang Hua opened her heavy eyelids. The ceiling in front of her was somewhat unreal. Only when she was fully awake did she realize that she was at home, not in the hospital.

"Dad... Dad..."

She heard hurried footsteps in the corridor.

"Young Miss, you're awake!"

Xu Qiulan pushed open the door and entered. Upon seeing the person who had woken up, she immediately placed the porridge she was holding on the bedside table and helped her sit up. "Miss, you're finally alright."

“You suddenly ran out yesterday, it really scared me.”

"If it weren't for..."

Jiang Hua interrupted her without listening to what she was going to say next, asking, "What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"

"Aunt Xu, where's Dad?"

"Is Dad home?" Jiang Hua was afraid that everything in her dream would come true. Just as she was about to lift the covers, Xu Ma immediately stopped her. "The master is fine."

“Miss, have you forgotten? Tomorrow is your wedding with Mr. Pei. People from the Huo family have come and brought a lot of betrothal gifts. Third Master Huo and the others are here, as are the ladies you got along well with at the Huo family before.”

"There was also a child, who was fair-skinned and chubby, who kept asking to see you, but the master told them that you were sick."

"They didn't come upstairs to bother us."

"The gentleman is still downstairs entertaining guests."

"Miss, don't worry, the master will be fine. The entire Royal Dragon Bay is under protection. No matter what, the master will definitely attend the wedding."

Xu Ma probably wanted to make Jiang Hua feel better, and couldn't bear to see her like this. She had only been living a good life for a short time, and somehow it all turned out like this. The young lady's body, which had finally recovered, seemed to have suffered a huge blow, and she suddenly collapsed overnight. The doctor said that her heart meridian was damaged. If this continued, the young lady's body would only be more difficult to recover, and she would become like before, locking herself in her room all day long, lifeless, and gloomy.

"Miss, you don't know, the betrothal gifts from the Huo family arrived in sixty-six carriages, and every single item they sent was something you liked."

"The master said that these are all for the young lady in the future."

"The Huo family arrived at six in the morning, and the servants still haven't finished moving everything. The villa is almost overflowing, so they have to put it in the downstairs hall. This is the first time I've ever seen such a scene; it's incredibly impressive."

"Such a scene is probably only seen by the young lady in the entire capital. Many people can only dream of it."

The weight on her heart seemed to ease a little. Perhaps her father was right. She didn't know who had sent the evidence, but their purpose was to target the Jiang family and sabotage the wedding, not wanting the Jiang family to have an easy time.

Now that she and Pei Zhan have reached this point, everyone knows about their wedding.

If she really cancels it, and the people who plotted behind it succeed, they will only secretly rejoice, thinking they have achieved their goal.

Even if her father is truly guilty, she will ensure his safety.

The Huo family holds a high position and wields great power. Even if her selfishness truly caused Zhou Xu's wrongful death, so what!

At worst, she could offer the Zhou family more compensation, whatever the conditions.

Aren't people selfish?

Jiang Hua was no exception.

She would stop at nothing to make her father be alright.

All of this will be resolved.

As for Pei Zhan, if what his father said is true, he changed his mind and had already given up revenge against the Jiang family for her sake, and didn't care about what his father did to the Zhou family.

She would forgive him as long as he could make her father alright.

She doesn't want to lose her father.

She didn't want everything that happened in her dream to become reality.

Zhou Xu... is already dead.

Besides, she had already given Zhou Yan so much compensation before, what else could she be dissatisfied with?

It will be alright, everything will be alright.

Jiang Hua had no other choice but to console herself with this thought.

After all, problems that can be solved with money are the easiest problems to solve in the world.

"Aunt Xu, do you know who brought those photos in?"

Dad wasn't home last night, was it because he was dealing with those photos?

Xu Qiulan stammered. She clearly knew, but she couldn't say these things. "I'm sorry, Miss. The master has instructed that this matter should not be mentioned again."

"Miss, you don't need to worry about this. Everything will be fine."

Even after she said that, Jiang Hua still couldn't feel at ease.

There was a knock on the door. Xu Qiulan got up and went out. Jiang Hua was still lost in thought and didn't hear what the person outside was saying. After a while, Xu's mother pushed in a wedding dress. The servants outside also stood at the door and did not go in.

Xu Ma was the person she relied on most besides her father. Even at this time, the more heartbroken and sad she was, the less anyone else could get close to her.

"Look how beautiful this wedding dress is!"

"The young lady was the most eye-catching bride on that day."

"Miss, don't be nervous. This day will come eventually. After tomorrow, everything will be fine."

Xu Qiulan talked to her a lot. Jiang Hua's face was pale and haggard, and she was frighteningly calm. It was supposed to be a happy day, but the atmosphere made people feel sad. It was extremely sad to see her like that.

In the room, Xu Qiulan made her lie down with her eyes closed and applied a hot towel to her eyes, just to let her rest a little longer.

She dared not even think about how the young lady would cope if something really happened to her husband.

She had finally recovered her health and was about to start a good life with her son-in-law, but a problem arose at this crucial moment.

“Aunt Xu, please talk to me.”

"Miss doesn't know, but last time when you mentioned to Young Master Pei what names to give your future son and daughter, I saw Young Master Pei alone in his room, spending seven days and seven nights choosing a name."

“I asked Mr. Pei, and he said that the baby will take the eldest daughter’s surname.”

"Compared to how much the young master and young lady care for each other, no one can compare to how much Young Master Pei cares for you. Young Master Pei is just like the eldest young lady, both of them are looking forward to their arrival."

"So no matter what happens, Miss, you must pull yourself together and live well."

A warm towel was placed over Jiang Hua's eyes. Tears seeped into the towel but did not fall. However, Xu Qiulan noticed that Jiang Hua's body was trembling and she was unable to control her emotions.

Thinking she had said something wrong, Xu's mother quickly changed the subject. Seeing her looking so upset, Xu Qiulan felt bad too.

"I will, I will be alright." Jiang Hua's voice trembled with sobs, and she finally spoke after a long while.

I thought she had really come to terms with it.

Watching her fall asleep, Xu Qiulan quietly left the room.

The Huo family downstairs kept quiet about what happened to the Jiang family, after all, no one wanted to talk about things that would spoil the happy occasion as such a joyous day approached.

The Huo family is even less likely to sit idly by and ignore these matters.

They just don't mention it openly.

The two families from the collateral branches of the Huo family left after a short while, as they had to make preparations for the wedding the next day.

In the afternoon, Xu Qiulan went to the room again to check on the young lady's condition.

The bedroom was empty...
