CHAPTER 323: CHAPTER 265 FOURTH UPDATE

Rong Yan could see the worry in Qin Ye’s eyes and immediately said, "It’s just been a while, I’m fine."

Qin Ye was not reassured.

Qi Yan’s expression was very grave as he looked at Rong Yan, "Are you sure you’re telling the truth?"

Rong Yan nodded, "Of course, it’s the truth. Would I joke about something like this? Besides, it’s not just talk; you can have someone test it!"

She hadn’t detected it before, only feeling there was something wrong with the pot, but she indeed hadn’t expected it to be something that caused infertility.

What kind of grudge did that person have against her? To actually send something like this.

And that woman--did she know her? Or did she know Qin Ye? Could it be that she fancied Qin Ye, so she...?

She cut off the thought, unwilling to delve deeper.

Mainly because it was of no significance to her.

Qi Yan nodded, even if she hadn’t mentioned it, he would have had someone test it regardless.

"Tell me more about the specifics!"

Qin Ye: "Just as I have just described."

Qi Yan: ...

"Alright then! You two go back first, I will contact you if there’s anything else." It seemed better to investigate on his own.

However, something struck him as odd... if the gift really did come from Ming Liping.

Was she so brazen? Not afraid of the consequences?

He had never seen her do something this foolish before.

By doing this, wouldn’t she be ruining her own future?

Furthermore,

"Alright," Qin Ye responded, then turned to his wife, "Wife, let’s go!"

"Okay," Rong Yan turned and walked out.

Qi Yan watched the retreating figures of the couple until they were out of sight, then retracted his gaze, "Xiao Wang, clean up here. Bury the soil back, and get this thing tested."

Xiao Wang immediately nodded, "Okay."

He quickly refilled the pot with soil, doing his best to plant the tree that was worth half a year’s salary.

Then he took a broom and swept away the remaining dirt on the ground.

Qi Yan was not in a hurry to find Ming Liping. After all, she couldn’t possibly escape; he needed to get the test results first.

And whether the house was really Ming Liping’s... that was what he needed to investigate now.

Over here, Qin Ye and Rong Yan arrived home when they passed by the gate of the siheyuan, Qin Ye glanced over with a very cold expression.

Madam Rong, sitting in the courtyard fanning herself, perked up upon hearing the sound of a bicycle outside, "They must be back."

Before she could get up to greet them, she saw Qin Ye and her daughter entering the courtyard with their bicycle.

She hurriedly asked, "How did it go? Was there something wrong with that pot?"

Rong Wenming also noticed his son-in-law’s troubled expression and couldn’t help asking, "Was there really an issue?"

Qin Ye nodded.

Rong Yan didn’t want to hide such matters from them; the main thing was to make them wary.

After all, though one might not harbor malice, vigilance is necessary, especially against strangers.

So she relayed everything detailedly.

Rong Wenming was shocked.

Following her shock, Madam Rong became furious, especially upon hearing that the thing could cause infertility... her anger burned intensely.

"How can that woman be so malicious? Have we offended her in any way? To come up with such an idea."

She really couldn’t understand what kind of grudge it was that could make someone stoop so low.

Good heavens! She felt she had truly lived her life in vain, never even considering that such a malicious person could do such a wicked thing.

Thinking about how her own negligence had almost harmed her daughter, she simply couldn’t swallow her anger.

"No, I have to find her."

Rong Yan hurriedly grabbed the person eager to rush out, "Mom, don’t go. There’s no one next door, and it’s no use even if you do. Besides, we’ve handed it over to the police station. Let’s not spook them and wait to see the outcome."

Even though Madam Rong didn’t rush outside after hearing her daughter’s words, she was still extremely agitated.

Seeing her mother like this and worried she might get sick from her anger, Rong Yan signaled her father with her eyes, "Dad, it’s late, and Qin Yu needs to get up early tomorrow. You and mom had better go to sleep right away!"

Rong Wenming quickly tried to calm down his furious wife, "Mom Yan, Yanyan’s right. Why are you getting upset for nothing? If you ruin your health over this, won’t it trouble Yanyan even more? If it really comes to it, tomorrow I will accompany you to the police station to inquire about the situation."

"Let’s head back to the room for now. Qin Yu has to leave so early tomorrow, do you really have the heart to let him leave on an empty stomach?"

His words tempered Madam Rong’s anger a bit. In fact, she was mostly feeling guilty. If it wasn’t for her slow reaction... and her carelessness, how could someone have exploited the situation?

"All right, everyone should go to bed early! Today is a day of joy; we shouldn’t let some nonsensical person affect our mood."

Rong Yan was not affected, her mood was still quite good.

"Let’s go back to our room."

She hooked a finger around Qin Ye’s hand.

Qin Ye’s face warmed up, and the anger he had felt instantly dissipated completely.

"Okay."

The two of them went back to their room.

Qin Ye looked at Rong Yan, his eyes deepening instantly, his heart inexplicably thrilled, "Wife, from now on, our home is truly here."

They would plant roots in this city in the future.

Go to school, work, and then have adorable children that belonged to just the two of them.

Rong Yan was quite satisfied with the house, "We could buy more houses like this in the future."

"Okay!" At this moment, Qin Ye wanted to agree to everything she wanted, even if she asked for the stars in the sky. "Wife, you go take a shower first."

"I’ll shower in the space." No sooner had she spoken than she disappeared.

Qin Ye couldn’t help but smile wryly; however, not wanting to waste time, he took his change of clothes and went to their own bathroom to shower.

At this moment, Rong Yan was eating a cucumber she had picked from the black soil, not in a hurry to leave, instead soaking in the villa’s bathtub.

Although it was burning money, the enjoyment was real.

There was no place more comfortable than her villa, decorated everywhere to her liking, with only high-end products used.

To her, it was the last testimony to her presence in modern life.

Half an hour later, she left the space.

She found Qin Ye already lying in bed reading a book.

When he saw her appear out of nowhere, he put down his book, "Wife."

His eyes landed on her hair, because the wafting fragrance was extremely pleasant.

Rong Yan went to lie down, currently dressed in her pajamas.

Qin Ye immediately embraced her, for today was a day of great joy for both of them... in a way!

In general, this day made up for the past imperfections.

Rong Yan wanted to say it was hot—his body temperature was too high.

But considering today... she ended up not voicing her complaints.

Of course, in the brief moment of her hesitation, her lips were already sealed...

Even though the summer night was hot, it couldn’t keep them from their passionate exploration of the origins of human joy.
