Xiang Qiuyun winked, then widened her eyes and looked Xie Zhi up and down. "You're quite good at playing the fool. I really didn't expect that the former big boss would fall to this level, even eating dog shit. You can swallow such humiliation. I really admire you!"

"Stop making sarcastic remarks, aren't you the same?" Xie Zhi rolled his eyes at her. "We're both in the same boat, why laugh at me? Didn't you both fall for that bitch Lan Yin?"

Wang Xiaobao sighed softly. "Yeah, we've all been tricked by Lan Yin. I, Wang Xiaobao, have always been the one tricking others, never the one being tricked. This time, we've really fallen into a trap."

"What are you planning to do?" Xie Zhi asked.

"Of course, we need to find that money first and clear our names!" Xiang Qiuyun shrieked. "Ah, you're not thinking of keeping that money for yourself, are you?"

“No,” Xie Zhi said coldly. “Once the money is found, it will be returned to those who were deceived.”

"Nobody would believe that," Xiang Qiuyun scoffed.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Xie Zhi is now full of hostility towards good-looking women. He's been bitten by a snake once and is now afraid of ropes for ten years. In the past, his eyes would light up when he saw a beautiful woman, but now he doesn't dare to. He even thinks that good-looking women are all bad.

"Then how can you prove that you intend to return the money to those who were deceived?" Wang Xiaobao was also thinking about this. He was afraid that Xie Zhixian would find the money and keep it for himself. He and Xiang Qiuyun would still be unable to explain themselves and would still be wanted criminals who absconded with the money.

"Can't I prove it with my life?" Xie Zhi didn't hide anything from them and told them how Lan Yin and her daughter had harmed Lan Guangxue. "I made a deal with Lan Guangxue. Once we find that money, I'll clear your names first. That's Lan Guangxue's condition. Then, I'll return the money to the victims. He will help me get back all my property."

Wang Xiaobao trembled all over. "Did they really push Lan Guangxue off the cliff?"

Xiang Qiuyun shook her head in disbelief. "Impossible. They're family. No matter how bad Lan Yin is, she couldn't possibly kill her own father."

"I believe you," Wang Xiaobao said, his voice trembling. "So, tell me, how do we want to cooperate?"

“Lan Guangxue said that Lan Yin is alone and weak, and suspicious. Only she knows where she keeps the money. It shouldn’t be kept far away, or maybe she rented a place to store it.” Xie Zhi sighed. “Obviously, she deliberately led me here. The money couldn’t possibly be here. It won’t be so easy to follow her next time.”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Wang Xiaobao looked around the room. “Lan Yin likes to play tricks. Hasn’t she heard that the most dangerous place is the safest place? Maybe she put the money in here. But this place is so big, it will take us some time to find it.”

"You two search here, I'll keep an eye on her," Xie Zhi instructed them. "We'll split up, but don't let her find out, or you two will be locked up before we even find the money."

"Don't worry, I'm still vigilant," Wang Xiaobao said confidently. "Otherwise, what would I have accomplished all these years?"

......

Xie Zhigang was stopped by Lan Yin as soon as he entered the residential area. "Ha, a madman, still remembers the way back? Am I telling you, are you really crazy or just pretending?"

Although Xie Zhi had even eaten excrement, she was still a little uneasy. That's why she was waiting for Xie Zhi here, and also wanted to go with him to the Xiao family to check things out. Didn't she take Xie Zhi's key? She had to go and try it out.

With Lan Guangxue's help, he had already come up with a plan to deal with Lan Yin. He took out the money in his bag and waved it, "Xiao Tian said that there is an address on this. As long as I give this to someone, it will be returned."

She reached out and snatched the ten yuan from Xie Zhi's hand. There was a line of small characters on it. The handwriting didn't look like an adult's; it was crooked and messy, but you could still recognize the characters at a glance. It really did look like Xiao Tian's handwriting. She took the money and followed Xie Zhi to the Xiao family. She had already made a copy of the key beforehand and secretly slipped Xie Zhi's copy into his bag.

Xie Zhi didn't notice that she had taken his keys. He reached into his bag and found the keys were still there. He hesitated, wondering whether to use the keys to open the door. What if she followed him in?

However, she noticed that Su Xiaonuan and Xiao Moran's cars were parked in the yard, which meant that someone was home. Only then did she dare to take out her key and open the gate.

Seeing that his key could open the door, Lan Yin smiled.

Xie Zhi closed the door as soon as he entered, not wanting the Xiao family to know that he had a key to the front door.

Having achieved her goal, Lan Yin left quietly.

Xiao Moran saw this scene from the window and called out, "Xiao Nuan, come here."

Su Xiaonuan walked over and looked at him affectionately. The two had just been intimate, and her face was still flushed. "What are you doing here?"

"Little brat, still not satisfied?" He reached out and flicked the tip of her nose. "I called you over so you could see down there, not so you could see me."

"Huh?" She looked down, her face flushed, and burst out laughing at Xie Zhi's bizarre attire. "Look at him, he really does look like a madman. How did he even come up with the idea of ​​wrapping my mother's bed skirt, which she hung out to dry in the yard, around himself? It's a good thing you weren't home; if you were, you'd be furious!"

“That’s not what I meant.” Xiao Moran pointed into the distance. “Do you see that figure from behind?”

"Isn't that Lan Yin?" Su Xiaonuan said. "What's she doing here?"

"She's the one who just brought Xie Zhi back. What do you think is going on between them?" Xiao Moran asked worriedly. "Could it be that they're getting back together?"

"Forget it." Su Xiaonuan nudged him. "With Xie Zhi's appearance, do you think Lan Yin would be interested? Before, it was because Xie Zhi was rich, but what does she want from him now? Does she want him to go crazy or his strange clothes?"

Don't you find this suspicious?

"I think you're being paranoid," Su Xiaonuan scoffed. "Isn't Xie Zhi faking his madness? Lan Yin approached him, maybe to test the waters and see if he's really crazy or just pretending. I don't believe for a second that they're having an affair."

Seeing that Lan Yin hadn't gone far outside, Xie Zhi took the opportunity to go crazy in the yard and chase after Da Huang.

The big yellow dog was amused and barked loudly, while Xie Zhi also burst into laughter.

Lan Yin turned back to look at Xie Zhi several times, thinking to herself, "He's really a madman," before she swayed her hips and left with peace of mind.

Exhausted from all the activity, Xie Zhi plopped down on the ground to rest.

Xiao Moxi returned and, seeing her favorite bag hanging on Xie Zhi, she angrily screamed in the yard, "Ah, my bag! My bag!"

Xie Zhi then realized that he was about to get beaten up again and regretted not putting her bag on the rack earlier.

While Moxi was stomping his feet in frustration, Ye Mei, Zhang Yulan, and Aunt Chen also returned.

They had just asked Moxi, "What's wrong?"

Before Moxi could answer them, the next second they all saw the bed skirt wrapped around Xie Zhi.

Now, Xie Zhi has truly incurred public wrath.

The three women were talking this morning about why the bed skirt they had hung out to dry in the yard yesterday was gone. Turns out it was being worn by Xie Zhi.
