Qin Yongyi's chopsticks paused mid-air as he heard this, thinking he had misheard.
Hadn't he already told Yu He and Qin Beiting to stop investigating?
Why were they still continuing?
With the case overturned, wouldn't the Qin family be in utter chaos right now?!
"Old Qin, it seems your fate isn't to die. Your case was overturned, I knew it, you're such a gentle person, how could you possibly be a murderer?"
"Congratulations, Old Qin, go out and live a good life, hahaha."
"Your daughter is filial, she actually managed to vindicate you! Good, good."
"Congratulations, congratulations, once you're out, don't forget about us brothers."
"..."
Several cellmates offered their enthusiastic congratulations. After all, once someone was locked up here, they never expected to get out. Qin Yongyi's situation was unprecedented, and even other inmates who had gathered to watch the spectacle offered their blessings.
But Qin Yongyi stood frozen, not a trace of joy on his face.
The burly, tattooed bald man sitting next to him clapped him on the back, "Hey, Old Qin, what's up? Shocked? Or are you reluctant to leave here?"
"What's to be reluctant about in this dump? Once you're out, don't come back. Hurry up and pack your things, let's go," another cellmate said.
Qin Yongyi was almost jolted into spitting out his food from the slap. He coughed a couple of times, regained his senses, and forced a strained smile as he bid them farewell one by one, then left with the prison supervisor.

Meanwhile, at the old Qin family mansion.
In this secluded corner of the study, Ye Zisu, who had been confined for three months, finally emerged.
She immediately went to find Madam Huang, only to discover that Madam Huang's residence was deserted. She then looked for Madam Song, but Madam Song was also absent. She had a feeling the Qin family mansion was much emptier than usual. Upon asking, she learned that the Qin family had encountered trouble.
During her confinement, she had been completely cut off from the outside world and was unaware of what had transpired.
She retrieved her phone, finally reconnecting to the internet, and her first action was to go to Weibo.
On Weibo, news about the Qin family had exploded, occupying several trending topics.
It took Ye Zisu three hours to finally digest all the gossip, gaining a general understanding of recent events.
Yu He was truly audacious!
Not only had she taken down the Qi family, but she dared to attack the Qin family too!
Was she tired of living?!
On Weibo, the PR team for the Qin Corporation had made emergency efforts to manage the online舆论, but it had little effect. The stock price continued to plummet, and no one from the Qin family came out to clarify.
Seeing this, Ye Zisu's eyes darted around. With the Qin family's main lineage members all arrested for investigation, she, who had been confined, had narrowly escaped. Heaven had surely given her an opportunity to save the Qin family!
If she came forward now to speak up and debunk the rumors, the patriarch would surely recognize her merit!
At the same time, she could also use this to publicize that she was still part of the Qin family!
With this thought, Ye Zisu immediately edited a Weibo post and published it:
Qin Xinsu: 【Debunking rumors, not everyone in the Qin family has been taken away. The police are merely asking family members to cooperate with an investigation. Please, netizens, do not spread gossip or make wild speculations, as it can cause trouble for others.】
Her Weibo account had been certified as the third young lady of the Qin family immediately after her return. Once her post went live, it quickly attracted numerous comments from netizens.
【Who is this white lotus here?】
【The certification says she's the Qin family's biological daughter, huh, you're still alive?】
【Why weren't you taken for investigation?】
【Isn't it obvious? The police don't acknowledge her as a Qin family member, so arresting her is pointless and a waste of manpower.】
【Hahaha, the above understanding is quite good.】
【It's rumored they are investigating your biological father's case. If you're not going to help your father, why are you posting on Weibo?】
【Ye Zisu, how are you still alive? Did you think changing your name after returning to the Qin family would make us not recognize you? You vain woman.】
...
Ye Zisu's teeth gnashed as she read the netizens' comments, but after her recent period of self-cultivation, she managed to control herself and didn't lose her temper.
Just then, an unknown number from Beijing called. She didn't know who it was, but she answered.
"Miss Xinsu, hello, I am Butler Qin."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zisu's anger instantly vanished.
The patriarch must have seen her Weibo post and sent Butler Qin to reward her!
"Hello, Butler Qin," she replied.
"Did you just post on Weibo?" Butler Qin asked.
Here it comes, they definitely saw her Weibo post.
Ye Zisu was ecstatic inwardly, but outwardly she appeared very calm, "Yes. As a member of the Qin family, this is what I should do..."
"Please stop posting random things online!" Butler Qin warned.
Ye Zisu: "Huh?"
"Delete it quickly!" Butler Qin added.
Ye Zisu: ???
Ye Zisu: !
Wasn't she doing this for the Qin family? What was wrong with that?!
Finally, under Butler Qin's insistence, she deleted the Weibo post.
...
Meanwhile, at Yu Xianyi Clinic.
The clinic was closed, but the door was not locked.
The lobby was lively at the moment. Old Madam Yu, Qiao Wei, Shen Yao, Mo Chao, and the Ye brothers, Ye Zizheng and Ye Qichen, were all there, drinking tea and chatting.
At this moment, Chen Dong parked his car at the entrance. Ye Zizheng recognized it as Qin Beiting's car at first glance and ran out, "Sister! Sister, you're finally back."
Yu He got out of the car and almost bumped into the charging little carrot-top. "Why are you here so late?"
"Brother drove me here," Ye Zizheng said, pulling her inside, "Come in quickly, I have something to show you."
Qin Beiting, who followed behind, walked in and found everyone present, his brow furrowing slightly.
"I listened to you and sold all the Qin Corporation stocks this morning," Ye Zizheng opened his mobile banking page and handed it to Yu He, "Look, we've made a fortune!"
Yu He glanced at it, her lips curling upwards, and ruffled his little head, "Good boy, transfer the money to my account!"
"Okay," Ye Zizheng replied.
Before transferring the money, he deliberately waved his phone screen in front of Ye Qichen, "Envious? Regret not buying from me back then? Now you can only be envious, right?"
Ye Qichen glanced at his phone screen, "You're making such a fuss over this little bit of money. You really are a child."
"This is just a little? This is 310 million! Your company's net profit for the whole year isn't this much, okay!" Ye Zizheng shoved the phone screen in front of him, poking at the amount to emphasize it.
"Three hundred million belongs to Sister, and the remaining ten million is my profit. Last time I asked you to lend me one or two hundred million, and you couldn't come up with it, only lending six million. A pauper still talks tough! You're clearly envious but refuse to admit it!"
"Hmph~" Ye Qichen snorted and took out his phone, opening the stock trading app and flashing the transaction record page at him, "Learn from this, what it means to get rich quietly."
Ye Zizheng had intended to just glance at it, but after just one look, he couldn't take his eyes away.
Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand...
Ye Zizheng: !!!
Ye Zizheng: "You actually bought Qin Corporation stocks behind my back! And made twenty million!"
Ye Qichen raised an eyebrow, "I bought them openly."
Shen Yao overheard this and interjected, "You also made twenty million? I bought a bit too, and I also made twenty million."
Ye Zizheng: ...
"Eh? Are we all so telepathic? I also sold Qin Corporation stocks this morning, and made thirty million," Mo Chao said.
Ye Zizheng: .........
So, I made the least money?
