Chapter 466: Chapter 465: The Raging Flames Carry a Power that Can Destroy the Sky and Earth! _1

Just as Su Pan’er was about to speak, there was a knock at the door. A little maidservant gently called from outside.

"Lord Qin, Lord Jun has requested your presence!"

Qin Yi’s face fell instantly. This bothersome fellow! Did he not realize that the quiet deep night was the perfect time for expressing affection? And he dares to interrupt at such a moment!

"Big Brother Jun is looking for you, it must be because of tonight’s incident. You should go first!"

"This Jun Ruochen really is unbearable. He lays a plate of dessert before me, tantalizingly so, but prevents me from taking a bite... Such an irritant!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Su Pan’er glanced outside where the shadow of the little maidservant still lingered on the door.

"You better go! It’s not good to keep people waiting too long."

They had not done anything wrong, yet if rumors were to spread, who knows what kind of gossip might fly around by tomorrow.

Qin Yi grumbled to himself for a moment, but eventually got up and left.

Sure enough, Jun Ruochen had sought Qin Yi to discuss the assassination attempt on Pan’er by the lotus pond.

Rather than saying he wanted to understand the situation, it was more accurate to say he took this opportunity to apologize to Qin Yi.

At the end, he also boldly voiced his suspicions about the case, "...Although the incident occurred in a strange manner, after conducting a thorough investigation, it turns out that the assassin appeared and disappeared mysteriously. Following the leads, we managed to clarify some details. All the evidence indicates..."

"It was done by Liu Zikang’s men!"

Qin Yi interjected with a gloomy face.

He was well aware of this without needing an investigation.

Jun Ruochen raised an eyebrow, surprised at how clearly Qin Yi could see through it. "Correct! However, I don’t understand why Lord Liu would want Pan’er to return to the Capital City only to attempt to kill her."

"He wasn’t trying to kill her; he wanted to harm the child in Pan’er’s womb..."

Qin Yi’s teeth clenched, and his icy face turned an angry blue. The fiery flames burning in his eyes held a destructive power!

"What are you planning to do?"

Jun Ruochen hesitated before asking.

"What are you talking about?"

"Hmm, don’t tell me that you are just going to let it go?"

Qin Yi’s eyes narrowed instantly. "What about you? As the eldest son of the Jun family, one of the Eight Great Aristocratic Families in the capital city, always at odds with the Liu family, what will be your choice?"

Jun Ruochen suddenly laughed!

His forefinger and middle finger gently tapped the table, "Just as you said, in the capital city, there are indeed Eight Great Aristocratic Families. On the surface, everyone is united against a common enemy. But behind the scenes, every family is each other’s competitor, relentlessly undermining each other. Hence, you need not be so roundabout. As long as it benefits the Jun family, I’ll do it!"

In other words, if it conflicts with the interests of the Jun family, would he discard it without hesitation?

"Indeed, thank you, Lord Jun, for being so candid. I have no qualms about revealing my plans to you."

Qin Yi nodded, raising a fist towards Jun Ruochen, "This time, I came to Changze County superficially as the County Magistrate, but Great General Yea also handed a secret command to me. As the Transport Envoy of the fifth rank, I am to investigate the case of corruption and cheating in Changze County. After an investigation, I unexpectedly found a relation to Lord Liu..."

Originally, after finding out about the Liu family, considering that Liu Zikang is Pan’er’s biological father, he was reluctant to act against them.

But unexpectedly, the other party persistently provoked him!

Not only did they intend to take away his Pan’er, harm his child, and attempt to separate his wife and disrupt their marriage, but they also wanted to sow discord between him and his wife!

In this case, naturally, he did not hold back.

In fact, he intended to dig deeper!

He wanted to see what confidence the Liu family would have to vie against him for Pan’er once this case was made public!

The madness in his eyes shocked Jun Ruochen!

Nevertheless, he soon became interested in this matter. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!

The two could not help but hold an in-depth discussion on this matter. They talked until late in the night before they finally returned reluctantly to their rooms.

Watching Qin Yi’s retreating figure, Jun Ruochen’s eyes squinted as he pondered for a long time.

He had always thought that Qin Yi has the qualities of a good official. He understands the times, knows when to advance and retreat, good at observations, and not afraid to fight. He has the spirit of a great general!

That’s why he has always treated him differently!

He did not expect that once he entered officialdom, his abilities would come to the fore so quickly. It’s imaginable that as long as there are no accidents, his talents would soon be fully realized.

He couldn’t help but feel a little proud. Fortunately, he had recruited him under the Jun family’s banner early on!

As long as he is a friend of his, he will definitely be a great help to the Jun family in the future!

Qin Yi returned to his temporary guest room with a heavy heart.

He saw that Su Pan’er was still reading, not having rested yet.

Seeing him stride in, she quickly put on a smile, "How did it go? Did you find out anything?"

"How could the result be so fast?"

Qin Yi frowned, walked over and took the book from her hand, "Why are you reading a book so late? You should worry about your eyes. Come, let me take you to bed."

Having said that, he put the book on the table, bent down, and picked her up.

"Hey, at least give me a warning first! What if you scared me?"

"Did I scare you?"

Qin Yi asked as he placed her on the thick blanket, his body pressing down leisurely.

Su Pan’er blinked her watery fox eye-shaped eyes.

She understood that he was referring to the incident by the lotus pond earlier.

She gently pulled his hand and slowly placed it on her belly, "No, you didn’t scare me. This child is very resilient. He survived all the rolling and tumbling and is still safe and sound in my belly. I was worried, so I have specially taken some medicine to preserve the pregnancy. Don’t worry!"

The familiar warm touch from his hand made Qin Yi vividly feel that Su Pan’er was right beside him.

He hugged her tightly, his big hand gently rubbing her belly.

He couldn’t bring himself to let go!

"Go to sleep! There are many things to do tomorrow."

He patted Su Pan’er’s back softly.

Soothing her to sleep.

Although Qin Yi was hiding his inner anxiety, Su Pan’er was sensitive enough to feel it.

She obediently closed her eyes and snuggled into his chest.

"Hmm, let’s sleep!"

She couldn’t help much, but at least she could avoid causing any trouble for him and take care of herself.

All night long, Qin Yi barely dared to close his eyes, holding her tightly, wishing he could immediately fly back to Luoyan Village.

Contrarily, Su Pan’er, reassured by Qin Yi, slept soundly until dawn.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Qin Yi watching her without blinking. His face, full of stubble, was streaked with bloodshot eyes, and his thick, black eyebrows were furrowed, showing a worried expression.

Upon realizing that she was awake, a smile quickly spread across his face.

"You’re awake? I will ask the servants to bring some food."
