Because Ruan Qing and Shen Baiyue took photos separately, the data organization was naturally done separately.

 

One was on this side of the table, and the other was on that side.

 

So after Ruan Qing finished organizing, he looked at the information placed on the table next to Shen Baiyue.

 

He wanted to see the taboos captured in the photos.

 

There was a corner of the table between the two, and Yang Chenyan was sitting in the middle.

 

Ruan Qing glanced at Yang Chenyan sitting beside him. The distance from the table was about half a meter. Even if he leaned over, he would only get closer to the other by a few points, without touching him at all.

 

There shouldn’t be any problem.

 

However, as Ruan Qing leaned over to pick up the data organized by Shen Baiyue, before he could return to his own position, there was a loud sound of something smashing on the ground next to him.

 

The sound was so loud that the entire hall could hear it.

 

Ruan Qing was startled. His hand shook directly, subconsciously looking at the place where the sound came from. A trace of confusion and helplessness appeared on his delicate face.

 

It was a tablet.

 

It had been smashed to pieces.

 

And this tablet was in Yang Chenyan’s hands just a few seconds ago.

 

Ruan Qing looked at Yang Chenyan. Unexpectedly, Yang Chenyan was also looking at him at this moment, his eyes extremely gloomy, his face filled with uncontrollable anger.

 

As if the next second, he would pull out a knife and stab him to death.

 

“W-What’s wrong?” Ruan Qing’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and even his voice carried a slight tremor, obviously frightened.

 

Yang Chenyan’s face was dark, shrouded in shadows. He looked at the person in front of him, who seemed confused and innocent. In the end, he gritted his teeth and spat out a word, “Nothing.”

 

Although Yang Chenyan said ‘nothing,’ his appearance completely didn’t look like nothing happened.

 

If he said he was about to kill someone in the next second, someone would believe it.

 

Ruan Qing looked at the man whose neck and ears were red with anger, feeling a bit inexplicable.

 

It was Shen Baiyue who lifted her head and glanced a few times at the obviously annoyed man. However, she didn’t say anything and immediately lowered her head the next second.

 

Although Ruan Qing wasn’t sure why Yang Chenyan suddenly got angry, he still took a few steps back with the data in his hand and returned to his original position.

 

Afraid of being affected.

 

Then, after he retreated, he saw that Yang Chenyan seemed even angrier.

 

Ruan Qing: “...?” Could it be because of him that he’s angry?

 

He seemed to have done nothing...

 

Ruan Qing reflected on his actions just now but couldn’t figure out why Yang Chenyan was angry.

 

Yang Chenyan looked at the bewildered person, took a deep breath, unable to suppress the anger in his heart.

 

He didn’t know why he was angry.

 

It was just an inexplicable anger that made him want to tear apart the documents held by someone.

 

There was even a kind of indescribable frustration and suffocation, making his chest uncomfortable.

 

Uncomfortable in a way he had never experienced before.

 

Especially uncomfortable.

 

It was like the feeling of not being able to get something you had always wanted since childhood.

 

Yang Chenyan stood up, kicked the floor fiercely, and then exuded a violent aura as he walked away from the dining table.

 

The people in the hall looked at the board that was completely embedded in the wall after being kicked. Their eyes widened, and their bodies couldn’t help but tremble. They didn’t dare to make a sound.

 

How much force did it take to kick the board and embed it into the wall?

 

The guests didn’t know, but they knew that if a kick like that landed on them, they wouldn’t survive.

 

Too scary...

 

Was this Yang Chenyan really still a human?

 

The guests became even more cautious for a while. Those who had stayed in the hall just left, afraid of provoking Yang Chenyan.

 

In the hall, only the steward, servants, Yang Chenyan, Ruan Qing, and Shen Baiyue remained.

 

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

 

Because Yang Chenyan had already sat down at the dining table, dinner time started earlier.

 

Seeing the situation, the servants didn’t wait for dinner time; they quickly and orderly brought the dishes to the table.

 

At this moment, the players also returned and were surprised to see Yang Chenyan already sitting at the table.

 

It seemed they didn’t expect Yang Chenyan to come downstairs so quickly.

 

Players investigated for the afternoon and naturally found out the Yang family’s dinner time was generally at 6 PM.

 

Yang Chenyan and Yang Chenjin would usually come downstairs around 6:30 PM, seldom punctual.

 

So, the players came back on time, even arriving ten minutes early.

 

However, it’s evident that dinner time had been moved up.

 

They missed the dinner time.

 

The Yang family had a rule that once a member was seated, no more guests were allowed to sit on the table.

 

So, even if Yang Chenyan hadn’t started eating, they could no longer sit.

 

Fortunately, the players had eaten a lot at noon, so missing one meal wouldn’t affect them much.

 

The players looked at the hall’s nervous servants and glanced discreetly at Yang Chenyan, who was clearly angry, exchanging glances.

 

What just happened...?

 

Some players left the hall to ask guests because there were quite a few in the hall at the time. The players quickly got the answer.

 

Yang Chenyan was playing games on the sofa and got angry while playing.

 

Guests speculated that it might be due to encountering difficult teammates in the game.

 

Players: “...” This answer was somewhat unexpected for them.

 

It seemed as if he got angry, just like any young man with a bad temper addicted to games.

 

It didn’t quite fit the identity of the Yang family boss.

 

But regardless of the reason, they couldn’t have dinner tonight.

 

After thinking about it, the players eventually left the villa hall.

 

Rather than wasting time on this, it was better to continue looking for clues.

 

This was the first day in the dungeon, and the danger level was the lowest. They needed to investigate thoroughly and understand the situation in the Yang family villa, finding an escape route left by the dungeon.

 

Otherwise, it would be challenging to leave alive on the day of the young master’s funeral.

 

The current clues were still too few; they hadn’t even figured out the cause of the player’s death in the morning.
