The Ye Residence's servants were silenced, and the master's disappearance was quickly reported to the authorities. The officials arrived promptly, and were shocked to find Jiang Li also present. They advised her subtly to go home and wait. Such a massacre was indeed a bloody scene, yet aside from a pained expression, Jiang Li showed little fear.
She knew that Jiang Yuanbai would soon learn of the incident and would want her to hurry back to the Jiang Residence. Jiang Li was about to say goodbye to Situ Jiuyue when Situ Jiuyue suddenly said, "I'll go back with you."
Jiang Li said, "Miss Jiuyue?"
"Since those people came after you, and Zhao Ke is not in the Jiang Residence right now, if the enemy forces you to do something, at least with me by your side, you'll have someone to discuss with," she explained. "If I go back to the Duke Residence now, where there's nobody, it won't serve any purpose."
