After a long while, Fang Xin couldn't help but feel worried. She was afraid that her actions would frighten her mother, so she anxiously tried to rush into the room to check on the situation.

Fang Yu, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist, whispering to her, "Don't worry, let's wait and see."

Sure enough, not long after, in about three breaths, sobs suddenly came from inside the room.

The voice was sometimes low and sorrowful, and sometimes mixed with a hint of surprise and relief, making one's heart ache upon hearing it.

Inside the room, the slightly trembling voices of Li Shi and Su Wang could be heard intermittently.

Fang Yu then said, "Alright, Xin'er, you should rest well today. I have some important matters to attend to when your parents come out."

Fang Xin did not stop her, but obediently nodded and replied, "Okay, sister, you can go and do your business with peace of mind, just remember to come back soon!"

After that, Fang Yu left with Xin Jiyan and sped straight towards the manor outside the city.

Xin Jiyan arrested those people and locked them up on the estate.

On the way, Xin Jiyan could no longer suppress his doubts, and he slowly asked, "Miss Fang, was that really your father? But your father isn't..."

He seemed hesitant halfway through his sentence, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Fang Yu naturally understood what he meant by what he hadn't finished saying, and selected some important information to give Xin Jiyan a general overview.

But she still hadn't forgotten that crucial matter, and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, when we get back, I'll have my father go to the old lady after he returns to the manor and inquire about that jade pendant."

For the two of them, the jade pendant was not only a key clue for Fang Yu to find her biological father, but also an important proof for Xin Jiyan to find his long-lost family.

Upon hearing Fang Yu's words, Xin Jiyan's tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

He nodded emphatically and said sincerely, "Miss Fang, thank you."

A gust of wind rose beneath their feet, and their pace quickened, not daring to stop for even a moment.

In the dark and damp woodshed, Fang Wande, Zhang Shi, and Fang Youcai were huddled in a corner, looking utterly disheveled and neither human nor ghost.

If one didn't have a keen eye, even a familiar face standing here would probably find it difficult to recognize the true faces of these three people in a short time.

Zhang was trembling uncontrollably, her teeth chattering, whether from the cold or from extreme fear.

She stammered in a trembling voice, "That man, I remember him, he's the one who's with Sister Yu. He brought us here, could it be that he wants to kill us?"

As she spoke, her body began to tremble even more violently.

"I don't want to die! I haven't experienced true wealth and luxury yet!"

Fang Youcai stood to the side, wailing and howling, his face full of resentment and despair.

Only Fang Wande could barely maintain his composure in the room.

His brows furrowed slightly, his eyes flickering, as if he were secretly plotting something, appearing completely confident.

Suddenly, the door to the dilapidated woodshed was pushed open forcefully, and a beam of scorching, dazzling sunlight poured in, shining directly into the dim and cramped room.

The intense light caused the three people inside to instinctively close their eyes, unable to look directly at it.

A figure slowly stepped into the room, and as the person approached, the shadow cast by the figure gradually covered the faces of the three people.

Under the cover of this shadow, the three of them were able to barely open their eyes.

Upon seeing the person's face clearly, Fang Youcai's eyes widened, and he roared at the top of his lungs, "Fang Yu! What do you want with us, bringing us here?"

Zhang, who was standing nearby, quickly chimed in, "You can't kill us! If Ling'er finds out we're missing and comes here, she'll immediately report us to the authorities and have you arrested!"

Fang Yu remained completely unfazed by their threats and rebukes. She continued walking unhurriedly towards Zhang's location.

When Fang Yu reached Zhang Shi, he stopped walking and slowly squatted down.

Ignoring the dirt, she reached out and gently brushed aside the messy strands of hair that covered half of Zhang's face.

"You probably don't know this yet."

Fang Yu looked at Zhang Shi and Fang Youcai in front of her expressionlessly, and poured cold water on them in an unusually calm tone.

"The Wang family never intended to sincerely marry Fang Ling from the beginning. This trip was just a perfect opportunity for the Wang family to get rid of her."

"You're talking nonsense! Ling'er is pregnant with the Wang family's child!"

Zhang glared angrily and retorted.

Fang Yu couldn't help but let out a cold snort, and said with a mocking expression, "It seems that you really know nothing. On the way here, Fang Ling was abandoned by the Wang family and unfortunately encountered thugs, and jumped off a cliff to her death."

Upon hearing this, the three people present widened their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief, unable to accept this astonishing news.

Despite being tightly bound by ropes, Fang Youcai still struggled and tried to pounce on Fang Yu.

His face was contorted with rage, and he gritted his teeth as he hurled accusations at Fang Yu: "It was clearly you, you vicious woman, who pushed Ling'er off the cliff! You've always harbored resentment towards us, hating that we expelled you and your two daughters from the Fang family. You took this opportunity to take revenge and drove her to her death! It must have been you!"

Before the words were finished, a sharp "snap" suddenly rang out.

Xin Jiyan, unable to bear it any longer, suddenly raised his hand and slapped Fang Youcai hard across the face.

The slap was so powerful that it knocked out one of Fang Youcai's front teeth, and blood instantly gushed from the corner of his mouth.

Faced with this situation, Fang Wande simply frowned slightly and remained silent, his thoughts unknown.

Fang Yu strode straight toward Fang Wande and stopped a few steps away from him.

She looked down at the people before her with an air of superiority, and slowly questioned them: "You have come all this way to Yunjing not just for the Wang family, have you?"

Fang Wande, who had been silent all along, suddenly turned his gaze to Fang Yu, his eyes filled with undisguised shock.

Before he could speak, Fang Yu continued, "Your primary objective is the Wang family, but you also have a second objective, which is to find my father, Fang Youfu, right?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Wande and Zhang Shi beside him both showed extremely astonished expressions. They stared blankly at Fang Yu, as if they could not believe that she knew the inside story.
