Chapter 458 Looking for Qin Yan
After Jiang Tao was served the family law, he dragged his wounded body to the Qin Family.
The head of the Qin family, Qin Xingbao, was feeling guilty for hitting his daughter when he heard the doorbell. He immediately asked the servant in a bad mood, “Who is it?”.
The servant immediately went to ask and then came over to report, “Master, it’s the future Young Master!”
Qin Xingbao’s eyes narrowed slightly and said with some doubt, “Didn’t Jiang Tao go back to that small county? Why is he suddenly here?”
Madam Qin, who was beside him, was very happy to hear that her son-in-law had come. She said, “No matter what, it’s good that he’s here. He came here as soon as possible. He must be here to comfort our baby daughter.”
However, Qin Xingbao was not as optimistic as her. He said, “But what if he believes the rumors on the Internet?”
Mrs. Qin immediately glared at him and said unhappily, “You said it yourself. Those are just rumors. My son-in-law definitely won’t believe them.
“Our Yan ‘er is beautiful, well-behaved, and kind-hearted. She’s famous in the upper-class circle. Moreover, our son-in-law and Yan ‘Er have known each other since they were young. They have been friends for more than ten years. How could he not know what kind of person Yan ‘Er is? Do you think he’d heed the rumors on the internet?”
Qin Xingbao could not win against his wife. He said to the servant, “Go and tell the guards to let our son-in-law in.”
When Jiang Tao stepped into the Qin residence, he was covered in blood and wounds. Everyone was shocked.
The servant shouted, “Ah, future young master, why are you injured so badly?”
Qin Xingbao and his wife, who were sitting in the living room waiting for their son-in-law to enter, frowned when they heard the servant’s words. They looked at each other and ran out. They saw Jiang Tao covered in blood. His shirt was dyed red. It was so red that one couldn’t tell the shirt’s original color. The shirt was actually still dripping with blood. What happened to him?
Madam Qin was immediately shocked. She went forward and asked, “Tao ‘Er, what happened to you? Did you encounter a robbery on the road? Which robber is so blind to rob Young Master Jiang?” Then, she ordered a servant, “Go and quickly call the Doctor.”.
As soon as Jiang Tao came in, he called out, “Uncle, Auntie!” Originally, after they were engaged, Jiang Tao called Qin Yan’s parents his father and mother too. But now he had reverted to his previously distant terms of address.
Qin Xingbao frowned slightly. He was slightly displeased, but he didn’t say anything. He would remind him later.
When Jiang Tao heard that Madam Qin wanted to call the doctor for him, he immediately stopped her, “Auntie, there’s no need. I’m fine now.”
However, Madam Qin exclaimed, “Your injury looks very serious. How can you be fine?” Then she asked, “Tao ‘Er, what happened?”
Jiang Tao shook his head and said, “I’m fine, It’s just some superficial injuries. When I go back later, I’ll apply for some medicine.” Having said that, he looked at the two of them and asked directly, “Uncle, Auntie, I’m here to look for Qin Yan. Where is she now?”
Qin Xingbao became more and more dissatisfied with Jiang Tao’s words and attitude. However, he endured it and didn’t say anything
When Madam Qin heard that Jiang Tao was here to look for his daughter, she was instantly delighted. She said, “Tao ‘Er, Yan ‘Er is in her room.” At this point, she frowned and said unhappily, “Your father is really ruthless. Just for the sake of those rumors on the Internet, he berated Yan ‘Er. Because of that, Yan ‘Er was punished by her father. She’s now lying in bed with injuries.”
Jiang Tao rushed to question his grandfather after he returned to the capital. He found out everything was caused by Qin Yan. After he was served the family law, he ignored the butler’s obstruction and came directly to the Qin Family. He had no idea what the internet was talking about Qin Yan. Then again, people like him never cared about things on the internet unless it was about his country.
So Jiang Tao was confused when Madam Qin brought this up. However, he asked calmly, “Auntie, I need to talk to Qin Yan alone. Do you think…”
It was not good for a man to enter a girl’s bedroom alone. Technically, Jiang Tao and Qin Yan were engaged. They could be in a room together. No one would say anything. However, Jiang Tao had no feelings for Qin Yan, so he treated this as an official business. Plus, he didn’t want to cause a misunderstanding by going to her bedroom.
Madam Qin frowned slightly, then said with a smile, “Tao ‘Er, have you forgotten that you and Yan ‘Er are already engaged? You are her fiance, so naturally, you can go to her room. Just discuss everything in her room. She is still injured, so I don’t think she should be moving around anyway.”
Jiang Tao shook his head and said, “No, Auntie. Look at me. I don’t want to dirty her room.”

This time, Qin Xingbao, who had been dissatisfied with Jiang Tao since he entered the room, immediately became a little angry.
He said loudly, “Yan ‘Er is now covered in injuries and lying in bed. Don’t tell me that she has to come out to see you with her injuries just because you want her to entertain you?” He was already feeling regret for beating her daughter. Now, he vented that anger on Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao nodded helplessly and said, “Alright. I’ll go to her room.” Then, he asked the servant at the side, “Where is your eldest Miss’s room?”
“Future young master, this way, please!” The maid received the master’s signal.
Qin Xingbao and his wife looked at the injured figure who followed the maid, and they frowned. Madam Qin said with puzzlement, “Master, is there something wrong with this Jiang Tao?”
Qin Xingbao said, “Of course, there’s something wrong. He and our Yan ‘Er are engaged. He should have called us his father and mother.
“But you heard how he addressed us earlier. He called us his uncle and auntie. He’s being very distant. Do you think this is a normal behavior of a son-in-law?”
Madam Qin said, “You’re right. But he came despite his injuries to find Yan ‘Er and wants to talk to her alone. Why is that?”
“Miss, the future young master is here! The servant reported.
Jiang Tao walked into Qin Yan’s room. He did not pay attention to any of the furnishings in the room. He just stared at her with his sharp eyes.
Qin Yan was shocked and uneasy when she heard the servant report that Jiang Tao had come. When she left the Jiang family, Old Master Jiang’s words were still ringing in her ears. Old Master Jiang said he would talk to her father about canceling the engagement. This made her very nervous.
However, nothing happened for a long time. Her father didn’t mention it either.
Hence, when she heard that Jiang Tao had come, her eyes were filled with guilt and panic. Her entire heart was on tenterhooks.
She had just raised her head when she met Jiang Tao’s deep, cold, and sharp eyes. Her breathing suddenly stopped, and there were waves of chills running through her. However, she quickly gathered her thoughts and returned to her usual innocent smile. She called out weakly, “Brother Tao, you’re here.”
“Why did you do that?” Jiang Tao questioned her directly.
The servant in the room was very surprised and even a little dazed. Even she could tell that the future young master came here with ill intentions.
The servant cleverly left and quickly ran to Qin Xingbao and Madam Qin to report, “Master, Madam, the future young master, he…”
The two of them were stunned and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
The servant said, “Master, Madam, you should go and take a look. I fear that the future young master will mistreat the eldest miss.”
“What?” The couple’s expression changed slightly.
Then, the two went to the third floor and went to Qin Yan’s bedroom.
Qin Yan was a little stunned and did not understand what was going on. She asked with a puzzled expression, “Brother Tao, what are you talking about?”
Jiang Tao reminded her coldly, “The photos!”
The moment the photos were mentioned, the color on Qin Yan’s face faded. Her eyes revealed guilt and panic.
She knew she couldn’t fake innocence. After all, Old Master Jiang knew about it. Since Jiang Tao was here to question her, he must have found out the truth from his grandfather.
