"I just thought that you might have misunderstood Nan Yan. Those people weren't after Nan Yan. When I was with Nan Yan, I could feel that their target was me." Yan Ling thought about it and then explained.

Liang He naturally didn't think of this point and couldn't help but frown. Before this, he only knew about Nan Yan's life, so he was prejudiced. Now that he spoke, Liang He naturally believed him.

"Then, among the members of the Bai Clan, who do you think has the motive to make a move against you?" Liang He's expression was ugly. He originally thought that Yan Ling had been implicated, but who knew that Yan Ling was their ultimate goal?

Yan Ling thought for a moment, then said, "Logically speaking, the Bai Clan has enmity with us, but Imperial Physician Bai will consider our status and also consider the emperor's side. He won't act against me so easily."

Seeing Liang He nod, Yan Ling sighed in relief and continued, "Bai Fei Fei has always listened to her father. There's no difference between the two of them, so it can't be Bai Fei Fei."

Liang He's eyes darkened as a trace of a vicious accident flashed across. He then said in a low voice, "Since that's the case, it seems like you also understand who is the mastermind behind this."

Yan Ling nodded his head and said, "Although I don't know why, I still feel that Snow Cherry has some sort of inexplicable hostility towards me. The only thing I am not clear about is that when we came out today, we didn't make it too public, and how did Snow Cherry find out about our movements? "

Liang He didn't seem surprised at all. With a smirk, he said, "Day and night, it's hard to guard against bandits."

Yan Ling was no fool. When he heard Liang He's words, he immediately understood and reacted in an instant. Wasn't there someone in his residence who was restless?

"After staying still for so long, I thought it was because of her long-term memory. In the end, she became restless again. I've really overestimated her." Yan Ling said with the same ice-cold expression.

At the end of the day, Yan Ling and Yan Shuang's past life's matters had still not been cleared up, yet now, Yan Shuang had hurt him over and over again. How could Yan Ling not be angry? As the old saying goes, even a Clay Buddha still had a bit of anger left in them.

"Nan Yan said that he knows the Bai Family. But, we don't have any other evidence, so we can't act rashly. "It seems that in order to get a clear understanding of this matter, we'll have to resolve it from the estate." After a moment of thought, Yan Ling said with a serious expression.

After returning to his own courtyard, Yan Ling suddenly remembered the day that something had happened to Nan Yan, when the Bai Family had come to his house.

At that time, Yan Ling had wanted to ask the two maidservants what the Bai Clan had come to do at the Prime Minister's Estate, but he had forgotten about it. Now that he thought about it, he felt that he had missed the biggest clue.

Instead of beating his chest and stamping his feet on the ground, Yan Ling immediately called for Li Yi and Xiao Yu to come in from outside.

"Miss, what's the matter?" Qingyu asked in a soft voice. Beside her, Li Jun was obviously still feeling uneasy, as if she was still worried about Nan Yan's injury.

Yan Ling sighed, then said, "Do you remember the last time something went wrong with Nanyan, it was when the Bai Clan came?"

Although Qingyu was somewhat baffled, she still nodded her head. It was Li Jun who looked as if her soul had left her body.

Yan Ling did not care much about this. He continued, "I forgot to ask you guys at that time. Do you know why people from the Bai Clan suddenly came to our residence?"

Qingyu was a smart person after all. She didn't know what was going on before, but now that the events of the day were combined, she could roughly guess what was going on.

However, if this was true, Qingyu and Li Jun really didn't know. When they saw the members of the Bai Clan that day, they were completely attracted by Nan Yan's abnormal action. When they returned to the courtyard and went out again, the people from the Bai Clan had already left for an unknown place. They were unable to reply immediately.

Yan Ling knew that this was most likely the case. Thus, he did not ask any further questions and instead cast his gaze towards Li Yao, who was obviously feeling unsettled.

Li Yi didn't seem to have realized that her young miss was looking at her. It was only when Qingyu gently pulled on her sleeve that Li Yi seemed to have her soul return to her side, causing her entire body to tremble.

"Excuse me, miss, do you have any instructions?" When Li Li came back to her senses, she apologized first and then asked.

Yan Ling seemed to understand Li Yi's feelings. Thus, he did not say anything and instead nodded his head as he said: "Indeed, there is something that I need you to do. Moreover, only you can accomplish it."

When Li Yi heard these words, she felt flattered and somewhat fearfully said: "Miss, if there's anything you need, feel free to tell me. I will definitely do it well."

Li Yi clearly knew that her current situation wasn't right. If she stayed by herself, she would be easily distracted. If there was something that could distract her, it would also be good.

Yan Ling gently smiled, then said seriously: "Aren't you very worried about Nan Yan? The thing I asked you to do has something to do with him. We need to find the mastermind behind today's events in order to completely solve this problem. "

After Li Li heard this, she nodded her head with all her might, looking as if she was just casually ordering around.

"I know that you have a good relationship with many people in the manor. Go out and ask around, ask them where they went and what they did after they came to the manor a few days ago." Although Yan Ling had guessed the gist of it, he still needed to confirm it.

Li Yi naturally knew that what Nan Yan had said this morning was related to the Bai family. Therefore, it was natural for him to investigate from here. Furthermore, the Bai Clan and the Yan Clan had always been enemies, so why would they come knocking for no reason?

"Miss, don't worry. I'll definitely get to the bottom of this matter." Li Jun clenched her fist and said in an extremely serious tone.

This childish appearance had made Yan Ling laugh. He then sighed helplessly and said, "I'm just asking you to find out more information."

Seeing Li Yi's slightly embarrassed appearance, Yan Ling continued to instruct him in detail, "Li Yi, you have to remember this matter slowly. Don't alert the enemy, just take it as a few people chatting and don't let others see through it."

Yan Ling clearly understood Li Yi's personality. He was afraid that he would do something too excessive just because he was worried. Since they were able to hear the news from the manor, then there were also people who were able to hear the news from others. As the exact situation was still unclear, Yan Ling didn't want the other party to know of it yet. Thus, he was prepared for it.

"Yes, miss, I will be careful." Li Yi nodded her head as she earnestly guaranteed that she knew how to prioritize the situation.

After Li Yao left, Yan Ling turned to look at Qingyu who was standing to the side. He then revealed a look of worry as he rubbed his brow and said, "Qingyu, go prepare some chicken soup in the kitchen. It'll be good for you to deliver it to Nanyan tomorrow."

Qingyu nodded her head. There was a small kitchen in Yan Ling's yard, so she had people bring food over from the mansion. Later on, he discovered that Qingyu's cooking skills were very good, so he handed the kitchen over to her.

Qingyu wasn't someone who would complain in the first place. Furthermore, there weren't many things in the yard, so Qingyu also liked to cook various dishes. Naturally, she was even more satisfied and would even come up with some new tricks from time to time.

However, Qingyu had never entered the kitchen with such a heavy heart. Although Qingyu and Nanyan hadn't known each other for long, and they hadn't spoken much due to their personality, Nanyan was perhaps the type that would make one's heart ache even if she was a thousand miles away from them.

After Li Yi told her some speculations about Nan Yan's background, Qingyu felt that she also felt a kind of heartache towards this child. It seemed like Qingyu was the calmest today, but how could she not worry?
