As night fell, the lights in the front yard cast a soft and warm glow, guiding the people returning home. Xin Mujing stood in the middle of the front yard, staring at the gate, his heart full of concern for Lu Nanxu and Helian Minxiao who were about to return.

Just then, the roar of a car engine came from far away and finally stopped within his sight.

The car door slowly opened, and the figures of Lu Nanxu and Helian Minxiao appeared under the light. Their clothes were wrinkled, covered with dust and unknown stains, and their faces were tired and weathered, obviously they had just experienced a difficult journey.

Seeing this, Xin Mujing hurried forward, his eyes full of worry.

"A Xu, Min Xiao, you are finally back! What happened? Why are you in such a mess?"

Xin Mujing asked anxiously, looking back and forth between the two of them, trying to find a clue.

Helian Minxiao's face looked a little heavy. He sighed softly, with a barely perceptible hint of fatigue in his voice.

"We... have encountered some troubles. As for Yin Zhiyang..." He paused here, as if he was considering his words, "He may... have died."

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, and Xin Mujing was stunned for a moment. He stared at Helian Minxiao with wide eyes in disbelief, as if he hoped that this was just an illusion.

"What? Yin Zhiyang... is dead?" He muttered to himself, his voice full of shock and confusion.

Seeing this, Lu Nanxu gently patted Helian Minxiao's shoulder to comfort him, then turned to Xin Mujing and said in a firm tone.

"Ah Jing, the specific situation is very complicated. We need to treat the wound first and change into clean clothes. Wait a minute, let's go to the study, and I will tell you everything in detail."

Xin Mujing heard this, although he still had many questions in his mind, he also knew that now was not the time to ask more questions. He nodded and watched the two people enter the house, but his heart was like a turbulent sea and it was difficult to calm down.

"Okay, go wash up first. I'll wait for you in the study."

After Xin Mujing finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the study. The light in the study was soft and bright, providing him with a quiet waiting space.

He sat at his desk with his hands folded on the table, but his eyes involuntarily drifted toward the window, and he silently prayed in his heart that everything could have a reasonable explanation.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and every second was filled with torment.

Finally, the tranquility of the study was broken by the sound of light footsteps coming from outside the door. The figures of Lu Nanxu and Helian Minxiao, like a bright spot in the night, once again appeared in Xin Mujing's eyes.

Although their steps seemed tired, their eyes had regained some of their former spirit, but the lingering haze still made people feel the heaviness in their hearts.

"Ah Jing, we are here."

Lu Nanxu's voice was gentle and firm, breaking the silence in the study room first, like a warm current slowly flowing into Xin Mujing's heart.

Xin Mujing suddenly came back to his senses and pulled himself out of his thoughts. He nodded, his eyes full of concern and expectation, and waved his hand gently to signal the two to sit down.

"Tell me quickly, what happened along the way? Are you okay?"

There was a mixture of anxiety and worry in his tone, and he was eager to know the safety and experiences of his friends.

Helian Minxiao looked around, as if looking for something, and then he asked.

"Where's Aqian? Why don't I see him here?" There was a hint of barely perceptible anxiety in his tone.

Xin Mujing quickly explained: "Ah Qian is taking care of Ah Yan in the backyard. Ah Yan's situation... is a little complicated."

At this point, his eyes couldn't help but dim a little, as if he remembered the serious situation that Zheng Haoqian had described before.

Hearing the name "Fu Jingyan", Lu Nanxu's face immediately became solemn. He asked anxiously: "How is Ah Yan? Is he..." His voice was a little choked, and it was obvious that he was very worried about his friend's condition.

Xin Mujing sighed softly and slowly told Fu Jingyan about his recent situation: "Ah Qian has done a comprehensive examination for Ah Yan, and the situation is indeed not optimistic. The toxicity of that new drug is beyond imagination and has caused great damage to Ah Yan's body. However, fortunately, Ah Qian did not give up. He has found a way to treat him, but the process is quite complicated and long. At present, we can only temporarily control the onset of Ah Yan's drug addiction and alleviate his pain."

After listening to Xin Mujing's narration, Lu Nanxu and Helian Minxiao were silent for a moment. Their hearts were filled with sympathy and concern for Fu Jingyan, and they also admired Zheng Haoqian's persistence and hard work.

"Ajing, don't worry, we will fully support Aqian. No matter what needs to be done, we are willing to do our part for Ayan." Lu Nanxu broke the silence first, his tone firm and powerful.

Helian Minxiao also nodded and added: "Yes, we can't let Ah Yan bear this pain alone. We must believe in Ah Qian's ability. He will definitely be able to find a way to completely cure Ah Yan."

Xin Mujing and Helian Minxiao sat opposite each other. After talking about Fu Jingyan's recent situation, the topic naturally turned to another worrying person - Yin Zhiyang.

"Just now you said Yin Zhiyang was dead, what on earth is going on?"

There was a hint of disbelief and curiosity in Xin Mujing's voice. He knew very well how cunning and dangerous Yin Zhiyang was, but he had never expected that he would end his life in this way.

Helian Minxiao's eyes suddenly became deep, as if he was recalling a thrilling contest.

"After you left, Yin Zhiyang fled back to the laboratory he had secretly built deep inside the villa. When we learned the news, we immediately organized our forces and decided to capture him alive in one fell swoop."

At this point, he sighed softly and continued, "However, we underestimated Yin Zhiyang's madness and determination. He actually planted bombs all over the laboratory, and he was obviously ready to die together."

"So...how did you escape?"

Xin Mujing asked nervously. He could feel the thrill and relief in Helian Minxiao's tone.

"Fortunately, we acted quickly and managed to evacuate just before the bomb exploded."

There was a subtle tremor in Helian Minxiao's tone, which was a deep memory of hovering on the edge of life and death. "As for Yin Zhiyang, he... should have died in the explosion. The entire laboratory was blown to pieces, leaving no possibility of survival."

Xin Mujing couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. He had never thought that a person who was once so arrogant and domineering would end his life in such a tragic way.

But then he thought of Zheng Haoqian's suspicion, so he led the topic in another direction.

"When Ah Qian examined Fu Jingyan's body, he found traces of that special drug in his body. He speculated that what happened to the Helian family in Europe might also be related to Yin Zhiyang."

Xin Mujing's words were full of solemnity and worry. He knew very well how great an impact this speculation would have on the Helian family if it came true.

Helian Minxiao's face instantly turned pale when he heard this. He stood up abruptly, clenching his fists, as if he wanted to vent all his anger and resentment.

"This bastard! If he really did it, I will never let him die so easily! Even if he is already dead, I will make him lose his reputation and let everyone know his true face!"
