Chapter 10 You Didn't Go Home

After saying that, she picked up the clothes scattered on the ground and threw them onto the door beam. After tying the knot, she jumped and put her head into the rope loop.

Gu Xizhou, who was standing by, was shocked and stepped forward to grab Su Nanzhi's hand.

Although his intuition told him that Su Nanzhi didn't really want to die, his heart couldn't help but tighten when he saw this scene.

Seeing this, the crowd that was watching immediately came over to comfort Su Nanzhi.

"Big sister, don't let it get you down."

"Death won't solve the problem."

"If you have any problems, tell the organization and they will definitely solve them for you."

"If you really died, it might be a relief for some people."

…

Although people in the family compound would usually quarrel over trivial matters, they were very united on major issues.

Su Nanzhi: It is impossible to die, but it is possible to let Zhao Xueshe die.

She snuggled closer to Mrs. Wang's arms, fearing that her laughter would be too loud.

Zhao Xue covered her burning mouth and listened to the soldiers' families' words, wanting only to curse.

She didn't expect that Su Nanzhi, a country woman, was so tough and would threaten to kill herself if she disagreed with something.

But she couldn't even say anything, and if she changed her words now, wouldn't that just prove that she was talking nonsense?

"I...I'm not wrong. Xiao Su is indeed the only one who came to Brother Qin's yard today. Who else has been here?"

"Besides, nothing has ever been lost in the family compound before."

"Ever since Xiao Su came..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people around looked at Su Nanzhi with a hint of suspicion.

Although some things had been stolen from the family compound before, they were all worthless vegetables. This was the first time such a large-scale theft had occurred in Qin Lie's house.

This incident happened when Su Nanzhi arrived at the family compound...

Su Nanzhi wiped her tearless face, stepped forward again nimbly, and slapped Zhao Xue twice.

"Zhao Xue, you just want to force me to death so that you can make room for me."

"This is my home, why would I steal?"

"And even if I stole it, where did I hide it?"

Su Nanzhi's well-reasoned words made everyone present nod their heads repeatedly.

Zhao Xue covered her cheeks and looked at the contemptuous eyes of the crowd. With new hatred and old grudges added to her, she didn't care about her weak image. She screamed and rushed towards Su Nanzhi.

Su Nanzhi would not stand there and get beaten. She moved flexibly and hid behind Qin Lie.

“Pah.”

The crisp sound of applause suddenly quieted the noisy room.

There was a red slap mark on Qin Lie’s dark face.

Zhao Xue was startled and said in fear: "Brother Qin, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to teach you a lesson..."

Su Nanzhi almost laughed out loud, "Brother Qin is sitting in a wheelchair, and I'm standing. There's such a big difference in distance."

"How could you not do it on purpose? I think you did it on purpose!"

"Do you want to embarrass Brother Qin..."

Qin Lie couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "Enough."

He stared at Su Nanzhi with a sinister look, "What's going on in my family?"

Su Nanzhi looked confused, "Brother Qin, this happened as soon as I entered your yard. I don't know."

Qin Lie still stared at Su Nanzhi. Although Qin Lie was sitting in a wheelchair and had a slap mark on his face, he was a veteran who had experienced all kinds of warriors on the battlefield after all. His aura was terrifying. At least the originally chattering military families even breathed a lot softer.

Su Nanzhi was not afraid, and even felt like laughing.

Qin Lie did not use these methods on hostile forces or criminals, but on his fiancée.

If you don't know, you might think she is a suspect.

Although she was indeed the culprit.

Gu Xizhou frowned and stood between Su Nanzhi and Qin Lie.

"I don't think Comrade Su can empty your house in just a few minutes."

"Deputy Battalion Commander Qin, why don't you think carefully about whether anyone broke into your house between last night and the early hours of the morning?"

Su Nanzhi looked at Gu Xizhou's back, and a warm feeling passed through her heart.

In fact, Gu Xizhou didn't need to get involved in this mess. A petty-minded person like Qin Lie would not appreciate Gu Xizhou's kindness, but would only think that Gu Xizhou was meddling in other people's business.

Sure enough, a hint of impatience and uneasiness flashed in Qin Lie's eyes...

Catching Qin Lie's uneasiness, Su Nanzhi narrowed her eyes.

Qin Lie seemed to become uneasy when he heard Gu Xizhou talk about last night.

Looking at Zhao Xue standing beside him, she glanced at Qin Lie from time to time with an uneasy look in her eyes.

Su Nanzhi couldn't help but sneer.

It seems that the two of them stayed together last night.

In this era of strict crackdown on work style issues, the two of them are acting like hooligans. Qin Lie may not be able to join the army, and he may be arrested and reformed together with Zhao Xue.

"Yeah, Brother Qin, weren't you home last night? The house was such a mess, even the cabinets in your bedroom were turned upside down. Didn't you hear the noise?"

"If it wasn't stolen last night, then it must have been stolen early this morning. Brother Qin, what time did you leave the house this morning?"

Qin Lie pursed his lips and looked at Su Nanzhi with a cruel look.

"I didn't notice."

Before he finished speaking, Aunt Zhao beside him slapped her thigh excitedly, "My eldest son wet the bed early this morning before daybreak. I was sitting in the yard washing the quilt and I didn't seem to see Deputy Battalion Commander Qin leave the house."

One of the neighboring military wives couldn't help but speak up, "Don't mention it. I was working in the yard today, and I didn't seem to hear any movement from Deputy Battalion Commander Qin's house."

Su Nanzhi didn't expect that Aunt Zhao was such a great assist. Looking at the bulging veins on Qin Lie's forehead, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth in a sarcastic arc.

"Brother Qin, you've become the deputy battalion commander, but how come you're even more confused than us ordinary people?"

"You don't hear anything when you sleep at night, and you don't know the time when you go out in the morning. How can your soldiers trust you?"

At this point, Su Nanzhi paused, "Or, you didn't go home yesterday."
