Soon, the village chief Xie Gui came to Xie Yu's house.

The dim kerosene lamp flickered with a weak light, illuminating the pale and distorted face of the man lying on the ground.

When Xie Gui saw the person lying on the ground, he was startled and obviously frightened, "What...what's going on?"

Almost instantly, his expression became a little solemn.

Is this going to result in someone dying?

Xie Yu sat aside with a calm expression, "This is the person the town public security bureau is pursuing. His name is Zhao Hui. I didn't expect him to escape to our village."

Xie Gui frowned upon hearing this, "What are you waiting for? I'll go get someone to send this guy to the police station right now!"

As he was about to turn around and go out to call for help, he was stopped by Chang Suisui.

Xie Gui looked at Chang Suisui in confusion, then glanced at Xie Yu.

It seemed as if he was questioning the two people with his eyes why they didn't let him go and call for help.

Is it possible that this matter needs to be kept secret?

Just as Xie Gui was about to speak, he heard Xie Yu's deep voice, "Before Zhao Hui came, someone came to my house and drugged me. If I hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid I would be lying down now."

Xie Gui frowned even more tightly, "You mean, Zhao Hui has an accomplice?"

He didn't expect that there was a more complicated conspiracy behind this incident.

Xie Yu nodded, with a barely perceptible worry in his tone, "Well, and... that person is... Zhao Xiulan."

When he said this, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Xie Gui.

As expected, as soon as he said this, Xie Gui's face turned pale instantly.

He looked at Xie Yu in disbelief, as if he had heard something incredible.

He always thought that although Zhao Xiulan was snobbish and had bad intentions, she was not brave enough to do anything like murder or arson.

But who would have thought that she would collude with a fugitive like Zhao Hui and even attempt to harm her own relatives!

After a moment of silence, Xie Gui took a deep breath and tried to calm himself.

He knew that Xie Yu did not alarm other people and gave him, the village chief, enough face.

He must not harm his younger brother out of favoritism.

Xie Gui paused, then continued, "I'll send someone to send Zhao Hui to the Public Security Bureau first. As for Zhao Xiulan... I'll handle it myself. Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation."

Xie Yu nodded and didn't say much.

He didn't expect that Zhao Xiulan could join forces with Zhao Hui. Now she doesn't care about his life or death, but what about others in the future?

Don't even count on it.

At this time, it would be more appropriate to hand her over directly to the Public Security Bureau and let her go through labor reform.

As for Xie Gui, he can only rely on himself to figure it out.

The night grew darker and the moonlight disappeared into the clouds.

Xie Gui pushed open the gate of the courtyard and went straight into the main room.

A gust of cold wind blew in, disturbing the already quiet atmosphere in the room, and also made Zhao Xiulan, who was pretending to be asleep, startle and jump up from the bed.

When she saw Xie Gui's gloomy face, her heart suddenly tightened, and she knew that Xie Gui might have discovered that Xie Yu was dead.

She pretended to be calm and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad? Did something happen?"

Zhao Xiulan tried to hide her inner panic by speaking.

But Xie Gui's bloodshot eyes just stared at her, as if he wanted to see through her.

This made Zhao Xiulan feel uncomfortable all over, and she felt a little uneasy.

After a while, Xie Gui finally spoke again.

"Have you ever done anything behind my back?"

Xie Gui's voice was low, like the tail sound coming from the center of the earth.

She felt guilty, but still forced herself to remain calm and shook her head to deny, "What can I do behind your back? Look at what you said..."

Zhao Xiulan's eyes flickered and she didn't dare to look at Xie Gui.

Her words made the hope in Xie Gui's eyes slowly extinguish like a candle in the night, and was replaced by a kind of determination and coldness.

He took a deep breath and said, "Do you plan to turn yourself in to the police station tomorrow, or should I take you there now?"

There was no room for negotiation in Xie Gui's tone, only cold indifference.

Zhao Xiulan's eyes widened instantly when she heard this. "What does Xie Yu's death have to do with me? I didn't do anything!"

Her screams cut through the silence of the night, and she was completely unaware that Xie Gui hadn't revealed any news to her.

How did she know that Xie Yu was dead?

"What rights do you have to slander me? I was at home the whole time when Xie Yu died!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, trying to cover up the truth with an innocent appearance.

However, Xie Gui's heart had completely turned cold.

Because Xie Yu was not dead at all, and he just mentioned the drugging incident and didn't say anything else.

But Zhao Xiulan's reaction and her previous suspicious behavior made him understand one fact.

Not only did Zhao Xiulan know that Zhao Hui wanted to kill Xie Yu, she also secretly helped him and drugged Xie Yu.

Want to kill him!

At this moment, all of Zhao Xiulan's excuses seemed pale and powerless.

Xie Gui didn't even have the slightest desire to continue talking to her and turned around to walk out.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiulan reached out to grab Xie Gui's clothes, "You can't leave!!!"

Her voice was particularly harsh in the night, almost piercing the dark sky.

Xie Jianguo heard the noise as soon as he stepped into the house.

He frowned and walked quickly towards the main room, only to see Zhao Xiulan holding Xie Gui's clothes tightly, not letting him leave.

The atmosphere in the room was so tense that it almost froze.

Xie Jianguo hurried forward and stretched out his hand to pull the two people apart, "Mom, what are you doing? Stop messing around with my dad!"

When Zhao Xiulan saw Xie Jianguo, she hugged Xie Jianguo's arm like a drowning person grabbing a straw, "Wuwuwu... Jianguo, your father wronged me and said that I killed Xie Yu! How could I do such a thing as murder?"

"He's going to send me to the Public Security Bureau! Wuuuuuu... Jianguo, please save me... Wuuuuuu..."

Xie Jianguo was stunned when he heard Zhao Xiulan's crying.

Xie Yu is dead?

If he remembered correctly, Chang Meili had said before that as long as Xie Yu died, his future would be bright!

Thinking of this, Xie Jianguo felt inexplicably excited.

He thought it would take a long time before Xie Yu died.

I didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect that Xie Yu would die so soon!

He took the panicked Lu Qingdai away from the hospital today, although he didn't do anything further with her.

But Lu Qingdai's dependence on him can be said to have increased visibly.

His heart couldn't help but beat wildly. It seemed that his good days were really coming!

Xie Jianguo was about to ask how Xie Yu died, but he met Zhao Xiulan's pleading eyes.

He could only swallow back the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and then coughed lightly, "Don't cry yet, Dad may have misunderstood. Tell me first, what's going on?"
