"Oh no, this is catastrophic!"
Du Yongbang, always a timid one, upon hearing the actual death of Lady Mei, immediately connected it with the horrifying rumors of Huo Yuan and Ci Yue Gang.
In his anxiety, he voiced his concerns without thinking, concluding them with a dispirited remark, "Given that Huo Yuan brought the entire Mu Family into the Bishui Villa, he evidently treasures them. With Lady Mei's death happening in our mansion, he will surely seek justice on their behalf, what can we do now?"
Upon hearing her father's worrying, Du Wanyue dismissed it with a smirk, she laughed and said, "Dad, as you said, the matter of Huo Yuan being the leader of Ci Yue Gang is just a rumor, why should we be afraid of a rumor?"
Du Yongzhi said, "What would you children know? Of all the people in the world, why is there only a rumor about him being the leader of Ci Yue? This indicates, he must have some connections with Ci Yue. Therefore, we must proceed with caution!"
