Perhaps it was because he felt the familiar body temperature and smell beside him that Jiang Ruoli's uneasiness gradually calmed down.

That night, I finally slept soundly.

The next morning, Jiang Ruoli was awakened by faint voices.

When I opened my eyes, I found the family lounge outside. My father and Yu Wanjun and her husband had arrived without me noticing.

Jiang Ruoli was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly called out, "Dad, aunt, uncle..."

But the voice was a little hoarse.

Jiang Wenhao and Yu Wanjun came over and asked with concern: "Are you feeling better? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

"Does your throat hurt?"

When asking, Lu Yanjue had already brought a cup of warm water to moisten Jiang Ruoli's throat.

Jiang Ruoli drank it and felt better, but still felt a little gritty. He said, "I'm fine."

Jiang Wenhao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lili, I'm so glad you're okay. I was so worried. I heard this morning that you encountered a fire last night. I was so scared."

Yu Wanjun couldn't hide her distress as she said, "Yeah, I was also scared after hearing that. Thank God, nothing unexpected happened."

She couldn't sit still after seeing the news early in the morning. She had no appetite for breakfast and hurriedly dragged her husband to the hospital to visit her.

My daughter-in-law, whom I had been waiting for so long, had just recovered from her injury last time. We cannot allow any accidents to happen again.

Now that I see that everyone is fine, I feel relieved.

Jiang Ruoli's hoarse voice was full of apology as he said, "I'm sorry for making you worry. I didn't expect to encounter something like this."

Si Yuanzong said, "No need to apologize, it's not your fault. Fortunately, you were all rescued and not seriously hurt."

Jiang Ruoli nodded and said, "Yes."

Yu Wanjun immediately said with concern: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Go wash up and eat something. I'll have someone make you some porridge to fill your stomach first."

Jiang Ruoli whispered, "Okay."

Yu Wanjun looked at Lu Yanjue and ordered, "Take Ruoli and go wash up."

Lu Yanjue had exactly this intention.

Soon he took Jiang Ruoli into the bathroom.

Jiang Ruoli took the opportunity to ask: "What were the results of the investigation last night?"

Lu Yanjue replied: "Pei Yan has not returned to report yet."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yan's voice came from outside.

Jiang Ruoli said hurriedly, "Why don't we go out and take a look first, maybe there will be some results."

Lu Yanjue said slowly, "No hurry, wait until you finish washing up."

Seeing this, Jiang Ruoli immediately quickened his washing speed.

After a while, two people came out.

Lu Yanjue helped Jiang Ruoli in an orderly manner, poured out the porridge and let her eat first.

Then, he asked Pei Yan, "What are the results of the investigation?"

Pei Yan was here to inform him of the result, and he quickly said, "The cause of the fire has been found out. It was a gas leak inside the club that caused the explosion.

Of course, this is just a superficial statement. The gas inside the club was inspected before it opened for business. It was someone who tampered with it and caused the explosion.

In addition, the surveillance was indeed damaged, so that a lot of footage was lost.

However, after our people investigated, visited, and inquired, we finally learned that the person who approached Miss Jiang's box last night might be Princess Cindy's people. "

After these words came out, Lu Yanjue's eyes darkened, and a layer of frost instantly formed on his face, full of displeasure.

Yu Wanjun was very surprised and asked, "How is this matter related to Princess Cindy?"

Jiang Wenhao also hurriedly said: "Assistant Pei, what is going on?"

Pei Yan replied: "Princess Cindy was also in the club last night. I asked and heard that Princess Cindy was giving Katie a farewell party. Katie was in Country G and had been frustrated everywhere and couldn't find a job, so the princess introduced her to a research institute abroad.

Last night, Miss Jiang and her group accidentally ran into Katie, who followed them and even found the waiter outside the door to ask about the specific person. "

At that time, the waiter didn't think much about it and told her everything truthfully.

According to the club attendant, Katie left quickly after asking the question.

Shortly after she left, the fire broke out, and the people who started it were Princess Cindy's subordinates.

That’s why the fire and explosion happened so quickly last night, because no one in the club dared to stop Princess Cindy’s people or ask questions.

As to whether it was Princess Cindy who ordered it, or Katie who borrowed Princess Cindy's name and gave the order privately, interrogation is needed to confirm.

However, I tend to be more inclined towards the latter.”

Lu Yanjue asked in a deep voice: "Why do you think so?"

Pei Yan analyzed in detail: "Last night, we checked all the traces of Princess Cindy and Katie, and found that Katie was going to leave the country overnight. Our people rushed to the airport, but when they caught her, her reaction was a little strange.

It was as if it was unbelievable that we found her so soon.

At present, the situation is under control.”

Lu Yanjue's eyes grew darker, and he snorted coldly, saying, "Even if Princess Cindy was not directly involved, would she not know that her people were being transferred? At least she acquiesced."

After listening to this, Pei Yan felt that there was some truth in it.

If Princess Cindy had not acquiesced, would Katie have the courage and ability to mobilize the princess's people?

The royal bodyguards are all professionally trained and swear allegiance to their masters, so they cannot be easily ordered around.

They were really courting death again and again, and had once again touched the Earl's sore spot.

This time, Pei Yan didn't even bother to light candles for them.

Well deserved.

Jiang Ruoli felt complicated after hearing this. She was with the Earl, which really angered Princess Cindy.

Yu Wanjun also frowned and said softly, "I didn't expect that a princess of the royal family would be so low-minded. Doesn't she know that the relationship between men and women cannot be forced?"

The most confused person throughout the whole process was Jiang Wenhao.

He listened so long that he caught the important information.

"Why is this Katie and Princess Cindy's? Why does the princess dislike Lili? What's going on? The dangerous situation last night was caused by the other party. Does she... want to kill Lili?"

After saying this, Lu Yanjue hesitated for a moment, but did not hide it.

He had the right to know this, so I told him simply and clearly.

"When the old king was still alive, he originally wanted to arrange a marriage between me and Princess Cindy, but I refused..."

A simple sentence.

Jiang Wenhao understood immediately and became worried.

I have always felt that my daughter is lucky to be with the Earl.

Because the Count can protect her.

But now it seems that this is not entirely the case.

Being with him can actually put your life in danger!!!

He suddenly became more worried.

Before, he had longed to entrust his daughter to the Earl as soon as possible, but at this moment his heart loosened a little and he was not so eager anymore.

He was a little hesitant to let go without ensuring Lili's safety.

His daughter has suffered so much, and he doesn't want to see her suffer anymore.
