Yu Yiwei was quick to react, and she asked, “Does Mr. Jin already know that you’re aware of his condition?”
“Yes, we’ve already come clean with each other.”
“Alright. When would you like to set off?”
“Forty minutes from now. We’ll have to stay over at B City tonight.”
“Alright, I’ll go prepare a set of clothes now.”
“Alright, go ahead,” An Xiaoning said with a smile that vanished the instant Yu Yiwei turned around. She then placed the glass on the table and leaned on the chair.
Once Yu Yiwei vanished out of sight, An Xiaoning said, “Judging from her expression, she seems to have already guessed that something had happened to Xihou Jiaping. She just doesn’t dare to verify it yet.”
“She’s probably not going to admit it for the sake of her own safety. After all, the only person who can prove that she’s Yin Cun is now dead.”
“I have a solution. Just leave this to me,” said An Xiaoning.
“Weren’t you going to interact with me tonight? Why are you staying out instead? You’re leaving me again so soon. Your baby is upset,” he said with his eyes closed.
“I’ll make it up to you in double when I get back, alright?”
He smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll wait for you.”
“I’m going upstairs to get my bag,” she said, after which she rose from her seat.
Jin Qingyan squinted and stared at the sky above him. He felt completely relaxed and at peace.
He felt that he had the world beneath his feet as long as his children and An Xiaoning were by his side.
“Mm, feels great.”
“Young Sir, what feels great?” asked Fan Shixin, who happened to hear what he murmured.
“Everything. Sit down, I’ll talk to you about something.”
Feeling a little spooked by the grin on Jin Qingyan’s face, Fan Shixin sat down beside him and asked, “Young Sir, what do you want to tell me?”
Staring at him earnestly, Jin Qingyan asked, “Shixin, how many years have you been working for me?”
“I started working for you long ago. It’s been many, many years.”
“Well then… I’d like to know, why didn’t you tell me that your Young Madam was hiding the fact that she had already found out about my illness?”
“Because… Young Sir, even you take orders from Young Madam. Why would I dare to defy her?”
Jin Qingyan was at a loss for words.
He changed the subject and asked, “You ceased the registration for your matchmaking sessions. Have you set your eyes on a great girl?”
Fan Shixin answered, “There’s indeed one. She’s 23 years old this year and is outgoing and bubbly. I plan to get to know her better.”
“Not bad, you’re being a cradle-snatcher. I hope you’ll get married soon.”
“Young Sir, I’m not that old…”
“You’re much older than her, aren’t you? However, you must be very careful. If she’s genuinely a great girl, then you ought to treat her well. However, if she has an ulterior motive, you ought to find out as soon as possible, lest you fall into her trap. Not all women are like your Young Madam.”
“I understand. Ah, if only Young Madam had a younger sister.”
Jin Qingyan smiled and asked, “So what if she has a younger sister?”
“If she has a younger sister…” Fan Shixin rose from his seat all of a sudden and bowed to Jin Qingyan. He continued, “Hello, Brother-in-law!”
“…”

No. 8 headed to the airport together with An Xiaoning and Yu Yiwei. They then boarded a commercial plane to B City.
When they arrived in B City, An Xiaoning hailed a taxi and handed the taxi driver a note. “Go to the address written on this note.”
After taking a look at the address, the driver said, “The destination is a little far. I’ll have to charge more for the trip.”
“It’s alright. Just keep driving.”
The driver remained silent.
Yu Yiwei had been refraining from speaking much throughout. She was unfamiliar with B City, the capital of S Nation. She had been here only a few times and was not familiar with the roads at all.
However, she could no longer keep her cool when the taxi arrived at the entrance of the Yin family home.
“Ms. An, aren’t we supposed to come to B City to enquire about Mr. Jin’s condition? Why are we here…?”
An Xiaoning smiled and asked, “Dr. Yu, you know where this is? Have you ever come here before?”
Yu Yiwei kept her eyes fixed on An Xiaoning, completely clueless about what she wanted to do. “I haven’t been here before… I just thought that you were planning to go to the hospital, but this place doesn’t look like a hospital at all.”
“This isn’t a hospital. Get out of the car.”
An Xiaoning whipped out her wallet and paid the taxi fare. She then instructed the driver to wait for them instead of leaving.
No. 5 had already terminated the lease for the rental of the apartment. Thus, he had brought all his luggage along.
He was waiting for them at the Yin family home.
Upon the sight of them, No. 5 greeted, “Sis, you guys are here.”
“Yes, where’s Sir?”
“He’s already waiting for you inside the house.”
“Alright.” An Xiaoning continued walking in without looking at Yu Yiwei’s expression.
Yu Yiwei entered together with No. 5 and No. 8.
The moment she walked past the gate, she was greeted with the sight of the male members of the Yin family.
Everyone stood up, including old Mr. Yin.
“I’m sorry to have made you wait.”
“Not at all, you’ve come at the right time, Ms. An.”
An Xiaoning said to Yu Yiwei, “Time to greet your descendants.”
Despite being filled with panic, Yu Yiwei remained calm and collected. She feigned ignorance and said, “I have no idea what you’re talking about, Ms. An.”
Having already expected her to react that way, An Xiaoning said, “Yin Cun, since I’ve already brought you here, that just goes to show that I’m certain about your identity. You are Yin Cun. Otherwise, there’d be no point in me taking you here.”
“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”
An Xiaoning turned around and placed her hands on Yu Yiwei’s shoulders. She said, “Xihou Jiaping has already told me everything. I don’t think he’d lie about it, especially when his life is at stake. How could a subordinate be more important to him than his life?”
Yu Yiwei remarked without hesitation, “Why would he believe that you’d spare his life after telling you the truth when he knows that you’d never let him off?”
An Xiaoning looked at her with a smile and said, “Don’t you think there’s a huge problem with your words? We found your mobile number in Xihou Jiaping’s mobile phone, and you two have contacted each other very frequently. I know clearly who you are. So what even if you refuse to admit it? At this juncture, there’s no point in denying it anymore.”
She then looked at the Yin family members and said, “I’d like to know if Yin Cun would choose to save herself or to protect her current family and the descendants of the Yin family. I’m really looking forward to the answer.”
Upon hearing her words, Yu Yiwei immediately understood that An Xiaoning’s purpose for bringing her there was to make her reveal the truth in front of the descendants.
She knew that An Xiaoning would definitely keep her word, which was the reason why she was now driven to a corner with no other way out.
“He’s already dead, isn’t he?” Yu Yiwei asked, staring at her.
“Yes.”
“Really?”
