The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Song Yuqing was slightly startled by his words. Although she was unhappy in her heart, she still pretended to be weak on the surface and whispered: "Zhennan, you are teaching your family a lesson for them. We just think that since it is a family dinner, there is no need to make a big fuss. I am afraid that your cold face will make us relatives feel chilled."

Seeing this, Mr. Song and Mrs. Song quickly agreed with Song Yuqing and said in a soothing tone, "Zhennan, Yuqing does have some truth in what she said. Today, our family finally gets together, so there's really no need to invite too many outsiders. In this case, you might as well host a banquet for them separately another day, which wouldn't be considered rude."

Song Zhennan felt helpless. Seeing his family members insisting on their decision, he finally sighed and gave up. He nodded reluctantly and said, "In that case, I will follow my parents' arrangement."

At the banquet, Song Zhennan could not really relax.

Looking at the scene of toasting and chatting in front of him, he felt a sense of loss and alienation in his heart.

The next day, Song Zhennan hosted a banquet and invited Gu Nanyuan, Qi Zeshen, Lin Ruoxuan, Lin Ruoxue and Lin Ruoqiao, and all five of them attended.

At the table, after they exchanged a few pleasantries, the atmosphere gradually became serious. Everyone knew tacitly that the focus of today was not on the table of delicious food, but on reviewing the case and the next choice.

Gu Nanyuan spoke calmly, his eyes falling on Song Zhennan and Lin Ruoqiao: "Now the case of Wu Qingfu has come to an end for the time being, but the truth has not yet been revealed. The existing evidence cannot completely prove your innocence, and Wan'er is dead, so this matter still involves many people. Today we want to know, are you determined to continue the investigation?"

Song Zhennan and Lin Ruoqiao looked at each other, with a hint of worry between their brows.

Seeing this, Lin Ruoxuan cleared up their doubts one by one and said bluntly: "Mr. Song, Seventh Sister, this matter is different from ordinary disputes. We all feel that this case is not simple, and if you want to find out the truth, you will have to bear greater pressure."

"If we continue to dig deeper, no matter who the evidence points to, we will handle it impartially. Even if the real culprit is Song Yuqing, Song Zhenhao and others, they will be punished after the truth is revealed. This is a road of no return. Once you embark on it, there is no turning back."

Song Zhennan clenched his fists, remained silent for a moment, and his eyes became more determined.

He whispered, "Thank you all for your help during this period. If I said that I was just trying to clear my name before, it's completely different now. Miss Seven was implicated because of me. If I can't clear her name, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. If I find out that the real murderer is one of my closest relatives this time, I will not back down."

Lin Ruoqiao gently pulled his sleeve, with a look of relief in her eyes: "Mr. Song, I feel relieved when you say that. I am willing to investigate this case with you. No matter what the result is, we must face it."

Gu Nanyuan nodded, and the sternness between his brows eased a little: "Since you have made up your mind, let's investigate this matter together. I will let Qingji and Qingxiang thoroughly investigate all suspicious points in this case, especially Song Yuqing and others. There are too many suspicious points in Wu Qingfu's death. If it is really them who did it, we will bring them to justice."

Qi Zeshen also said calmly: "Zhennan, the decision you made is not easy, but we will accompany you."

Song Zhennan nodded heavily, his eyes becoming sharp with determination.

Since the Song family's assets are all in the hands of his brothers and sisters, Song Zhennan is now free from worries and no longer has to worry about the shop. Every day he and Lin Ruoqiao go boating on the lake to enjoy the flowers, or go boating on a pleasure boat, looking at the flowers on the lakeside and feeling the gentle breeze, and he is quite comfortable and happy.

The two of them went out every day, occasionally bringing a picnic basket, and even playing the piano and composing poems impromptu. Although their life was simple, they were in a particularly good mood.

Lin Ruoqiao's heart knot gradually faded, and she regained her former carefree and cheerful self. The two of them walked together, and her feelings for Song Zhennan gradually deepened.

On this day, Lin Ruoxue and Qi Zeshen were also discussing the marriage of Lin Ruoxuan and Gu Nanyuan.

Lin Ruoxue had a gratified smile on her face and said softly, "Ruoxuan and Master Gu have a deep relationship. Now that they are getting married, as the eldest sister, I naturally have to carefully prepare a gift for them."

Qi Zeshen was always cautious and thoughtful. He smiled and said, "Give her a set of gold headwear. It will not only match the style of the wedding, but also add to her elegance."

He thought for a moment and added, "I will personally find the best craftsman to make it and carefully carve it into a unique style. It can be regarded as my gift as a brother-in-law."

Lin Ruoxue nodded, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes: "This is the best. Ruoxuan has been strong all her life, but she is not ostentatious. This exquisite but not flashy headdress will definitely suit her heart. After Ruoxuan gets married, she will be missing from the family. I am afraid that life will be a little lonely. I hope she can live happily in the Gu family in the future."

Qi Zeshen held her hand and smiled softly, "Don't worry, Ruoxuan has Nanyuan's love, and she will be happy and worry-free in the future."

Lin Ruoxue smiled gently and nodded slightly, and the two smiled at each other, their hearts full of blessings for Lin Ruoxuan.

On this day, Lin Ruoqiao was sitting in Lin Ruoxuan's room, embroidering a lifelike orchid with needle and thread.

Lin Ruoxuan looked at her delicate movements, smiling, and teased half-seriously, "Seventh sister, you have been so close to Mr. Song recently that people think good things are about to happen!"

Lin Ruoqiao's cheeks flushed slightly when she heard this. She paused her needlework, but then she chuckled as if to cover up, "Don't talk nonsense. It's just that I haven't been overwhelmed by the case because he accompanied me to the lake to relieve my boredom."

Seeing her shy and hesitant expression, Lin Ruoxuan couldn't help but ask, "To be honest, Seventh Sister, Young Master Song really loves you sincerely, but I see that you seem a little hesitant? Are you afraid of marrying into the Song family and still have some grudges in your heart?"

Lin Ruoqiao heard her words reveal her true feelings, sighed, and showed a little distress in her expression: "You are right. I can feel Mr. Song's sincerity, but I do feel a little uneasy."

"The Song family's previous actions and the indifference of Song Yuqing and her brothers and sisters have made me more worried. If I really marry them, I wonder if they will treat me as an outsider. If Mr. Song is embarrassed by them in the future, won't I be in a dilemma?"

Seeing her look full of worries, Lin Ruoxuan also felt a little emotional, so she deliberately smiled and said, "If that's the case, why don't you consider something else? For example, Master Zhang, his family background is comparable to the Song family, and he is wholeheartedly protecting you. If you want to find a reliable home, why not try to contact him?"

When Lin Ruoqiao heard Zhang Mo's name, she shook her head fiercely, her expression determined: "Zhang Mo? That's absolutely not allowed!"

"Although he is good to me, I have never had such thoughts about him. If the Song family makes me turn to Zhang Mo, wouldn't it be too unfair? Zhang Mo is so innocent. If I involve him like this, I am afraid I will no longer be a human being."
