Had she known yesterday that they had acquired evidence, she would have been thrilled. But now, a sense of fear gripped her.

The events had taken a profoundly bizarre turn. Initially, she had viewed Wen Xun’s situation as a minor issue, focusing more on preparing for the provincial exam. After all, they had no concrete evidence. If they chose to make a fuss, it could easily be dismissed.

However, the situation had escalated to the point where a life hung in the balance. When she thought about the Wen family’s downfall in her previous life, her hands trembled.

As her phone rang, Wen Nian lost her grip and dropped it to the ground.

“Wen Nian? Wen Nian! What’s wrong? Say something!” Shen Jun’s voice, filled with concern, came through the phone.

Wen Yu helped her retrieve the phone, and only then did Wen Nian move to a corner of the corridor with the phone in hand. Thankfully, everyone around thought that the young girl might have been overwhelmed by the loss of her family members and didn’t raise any suspicions.

Wen Nian suppressed her fear and spoke hoarsely, “I’m here.”

Shen Jun immediately sensed something was amiss from her voice. He hastily asked, “What’s wrong? Where are you now?”

Upon realizing that something was wrong with Wen Nian’s voice, he began dressing hastily, prepared to return to Hai City at a moment’s notice.

Wen Nian managed to regain her composure after her initial distress. “I’m fine,” she assured Shen Jun after taking a few deep breaths. “Something happened to my uncle and his family, so we returned to our hometown.”

“Your uncle?” Shen Jun thought for a moment and recalled the mother and daughter who had given him a ride previously, as well as the family that had made headlines for causing a scene at the Wei Corporation.

“Shen Jun, 1 have some matters to attend to here. I’ll get in touch with you once I’m done.” Wen Nian didn’t allow Shen Jun to probe further and promptly ended the call.

She then swiftly opened WeChat and sent a message.

Wen Nian: “My uncle and aunt committed suicide after drinking pesticide. They’re already dead. Their daughter fell into the water and was rescued, but she’s unconscious. Help me find out what my aunt’s brothers have been doing recently. Such a big thing happened to her, but no one from the Li family came to the hospital. I think something’s wrong.”

As Shen Jun was about to call Wen Nian back, he noticed her WeChat message.

Her message conveyed a sense of urgency and suspicion, prompting him to respond promptly with an acknowledgment: “Okay.” Then, he immediately ordered someone to start investigating what had happened in Hai City.

Two hours later, Shen Jun placed another call. By this time, Wen Nian’s family had already returned to their old residence. According to tradition, it was likely they would have to hold a funeral immediately, as delaying it for a month would be considered inauspicious and unacceptable to the neighbors.

Wen Nian stepped outside to answer the call, ready to hear the results of Shen Jun’s investigation.

“Is it convenient to talk?” Shen Jun asked.

“Yeah,” Wen Nian replied.

Hearing the distress in her voice, Shen Jun expressed his concern, “I’ll do everything I can to help you with this matter. Please take care of yourself too. We are celebrating the New Year on the following day…”

Realizing that the Wen family would likely not be able to celebrate the New Year properly this year, Shen Jun tactfully shifted the conversation.

“My team has found out that Li Ke’s third brother was indeed causing trouble alongside her at the Wei Corporation, but he recently accepted a significant job.”

Wen Nian was aware that Li Ke’s brother worked as a truck driver, typically taking on peripheral assignments. Despite the Li family’s unreasonable behavior, the Gu family seldom ventured on long-haul trips.

“Something happened?” Wen Nian’s voice was resolute, almost as if she were certain that an incident had occurred.

“Yes, indeed,” Shen Jun confirmed. “The three brothers embarked on a journey from Hai City to H Province in a large truck. Unfortunately, the truck was overloaded and overturned on the national highway during the night. It was surrounded by desolate land with no surveillance cameras, and it was only discovered the following morning. All three of them perished. The Li family should have received the news this morning.”

It made sense now why none of the Li family members had appeared when Li Ke had taken her own life. All three of Li Ke’s brothers had met the same fate, leaving the Li family in disarray.

“Please help me investigate who or what compelled the three Li brothers to leave the truck. They rarely travel long distances, and all three of them together is highly unusual. Something must be amiss.”

Observing Wen Nian’s steadfast belief, Shen Jun probed further, “I’ve already conducted an initial investigation, but there don’t seem to be any immediate red flags. Do you suspect Wei Feng?”

Wen Nian remained silent for a moment. It did resemble Wei Feng’s methods. Whenever someone became an inconvenience to him, he had a tendency to eliminate them, even if their involvement was unrelated to the situation at hand. However, other members of the Wei family might employ such tactics, especially Wei Xiao.

“Wen Nian? Are you still there?” Shen Jun gently inquired upon her prolonged silence.

Only then did Wen Nian respond, “Shen Jun, I have a feeling that Wei Xiao might be involved..”
