After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yuping's body went limp and she collapsed beside her husband.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, drop by drop.

Qiu Jingwen embraced his wife, whose face was covered in tears, and tears welled up in his eyes as well.

"Go to sleep, Yuping. Don't worry, you'll be fine, I promise."

He wanted to reassure his wife, and he didn't want anything to happen to her.

Jiang Yuping shook her head at her husband and said:

“Jingwen, but the truth will eventually come out. I pretended to be calm on the surface, but I was actually very nervous. I regret it now. I shouldn’t have killed Liu Han.”

Jiang Yuping really regrets it.

She regretted her impulsive act and even more her arrogance, thinking that she had done something flawless and that the police would not have a hard time investigating.

Qiu Jingwen hugged his wife tighter and whispered:

“Yu Ping, remember, you did not kill Liu Han. No matter what, you cannot admit it. They have no eyewitnesses and not enough evidence. Even if they suspect you, they will never be able to convict you. Cases require witnesses and physical evidence.”

“Jingwen, but I think Shao Jian has become suspicious of me. I can feel it from his eyes.”

"Yu Ping, the most important thing for the police to solve a case is not suspicion, reasoning and analysis, but evidence, solid evidence. You can sleep peacefully. Let them have their doubts. I guarantee you will be fine."

Qiu Jingwen already had his own plans; now he needed to comfort his wife.

He had seriously considered that his identity as an enemy agent would one day be discovered by detectives, and that Qiu Jingwen had to take his wife's place as the murderer of Liu Han.

This is the plan that Qiu Jingwen has thought through and formulated.

That's why he told his son Qiuyang that night that he killed Liu Han.

Moonlight streamed in through the window, silently falling on the couple's faces.

They embraced, gazing at each other's faces, a feeling of indescribable emotion welling up within them.

Having just been intimate and become husband and wife, they were indeed much more relaxed physically, and they also felt a long-lost sweetness and happiness.

The two said nothing more, and gradually fell asleep gazing into each other's tearful eyes.

The next morning.

The factory's loudspeaker blared as usual, and Jiang Yuping sat up in bed.

The husband was still asleep.

She didn't disturb her husband, but quietly got dressed and then put Qiu Jingwen's clothes on him.

Last time, the couple didn't finish their business, but their son Qiushou barged in and saw his husband's private moments.

Not only did she witness the autumn harvest, but her daughter Qiu Chan also saw it, and she would not allow such a thing to happen again.

Qiu Jingwen was probably really exhausted. He didn't react when Jiang Yuping pulled up his underwear and continued to sleep soundly.

Qiuyue has already prepared breakfast.

Through her observations over a period of time, the perceptive woman has sensed that something is amiss in the atmosphere at home.

However, she didn't think about it much; in her mind, her parents were the best parents in the world.

Last night, my brother and father drank quite a bit of alcohol and didn't come back until late. Instead of going back to his own dormitory, my brother crawled into my younger brother's bed. Although he was sleeping in the same bed as his younger brother Qiuyue, Qiuyue was a working young woman, and it was summer, so she was wearing very little. Fortunately, my brother didn't turn on the light when he entered the bedroom, so it didn't matter that she was wearing a tank top.

Seeing her mother enter the restaurant, Qiuyue looked at her and said:

"Mom, you've been getting up really late lately. I'm the one who makes all this breakfast."

Qiuyue spoke in a coquettish tone, with an expression that seemed to be trying to please him.

Jiang Yuping looked at her daughter's beautiful face and felt deeply moved.

"Qiuyue, you're not a child anymore. Mom has been making breakfast for you for over twenty years. Can't you help Mom make some breakfast?"

Qiuyue quickly explained:

"Mom, sure, of course! From now on, as long as I'm not on duty, I'll take over the breakfast service for our family, okay?"

At that time, the household contract responsibility system had not yet been implemented in Xiaogang Village, Anhui Province, and the term "contracting" was not yet popular, but Qiuyue did indeed use the term "contracting."

The promise of providing breakfast brought tears of joy to Jiang Yuping's eyes.

Qiu Yue was unaware of her mother's complicated feelings at that moment. Jiang Yuping was even thinking that it might not be long before she was taken away by the police for questioning. At that time, as the eldest daughter in the family, the task of making breakfast would fall to her.

Seeing her mother's tears, Qiuyue felt very strange. She frowned and said:

"Mom, why are you so agitated? Besides, I might not have a chance to make breakfast when I get back from my middle and night shifts."

Jiang Yuping didn't say anything, but came up and gently hugged her daughter.

"Qiuyue, you've grown up and are a good daughter to your mother. As the saying goes, even heaven has its untimely deaths, and people have their own blessings. You'll have to take on more responsibilities in the future, after all, your younger sister and brother are still young."

Upon hearing this, Qiuyue's smile immediately vanished.

With her sharp mind, she naturally understood the hidden meaning in her mother's words.

Especially considering the saying "the weather is unpredictable, and people are subject to misfortune at any time," combined with her parents' strange behavior these past few days, she immediately realized that her parents must be hiding something from them.

So he stared intently into his mother's eyes.

"Mom, has something happened to our family?"

Jiang Yuping immediately shook her head at her daughter:

"Qiuyue, don't overthink it. It's nothing. I was just saying it casually. Okay, I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face. I have to go to work after I eat."

Qiuyue stared at her mother, feeling that something must have happened at home.
