Lu Mo spent most of the day at the police station, but the arrest warrant was not issued.

"Go back first, I'll call you when it's approved," Fang Yanming said.

Lu Mo felt embarrassed to stay at the police station and delay his friend's work, so he had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.

I felt uneasy.

It was already 3 p.m., and Ye Qingqing should have finished her exams by now. Lu Mo smiled slightly and decided to go to the school to see the girl.

I'll treat that girl to KFC while I'm at it, to really treat her.

Yesterday I noticed her chin looked a bit sharper; she must be studying too hard.

Ye Qingqing finished her last exam of the day and felt completely relaxed. She felt pretty good about herself, as she was able to answer most of the questions. She wondered how tomorrow's exam would go, and if things went smoothly, she should have no problem getting into the top 100.

"It's still early today, how about we go get some fried skewers?" Tang Yuanyuan came over, her eyes sparkling.

The two shared a love for fried skewers behind the school. Although the sauce wasn't as good as the one made by Tang's father, it tasted quite good and the ingredients were generous. Ye Qingqing and Tang Yuanyuan often went there to eat after school.

“Okay, you’re treating!” Ye Qingqing said without any hesitation.

She needs to save money to pay for her younger brother's tuition.

"It was my treat anyway!" Tang Yuanyuan said with a grin.

She got so much money from Wen Sumei, enough for her and Ye Qingqing to eat fried skewers for the rest of their lives!

But as soon as she stepped out of the school gate, Ye Qingqing saw Ye Zhiguo, and her heart sank.

"How did the exam go? You look thinner, you must have worked very hard. I've come to pick you up from school!" Ye Zhiguo smiled very kindly.

But Ye Qingqing felt a chill run through her body, and a strong sense of unease welled up inside her.

What was Ye Zhiguo doing at the school all of a sudden?

Ye Qingqing didn't believe his excuse about picking her up from school at all.

Ye Zhiguo is currently overwhelmed with problems, so how could he be in the mood to pick her up from school?

Tang Yuanyuan called out "Uncle Ye" softly. Ye Zhiguo smiled slightly and gave Tang Yuanyuan a meaningful look.

Ye Qingqing felt a chill run down her spine and quietly nudged Tang Yuanyuan, signaling her to go first.

Although she couldn't understand Ye Zhiguo's intentions, Ye Qing felt that it was definitely not a good thing, so it was best to let Tang Yuanyuan leave first, so that she could escape alone if something happened.

Tang Yuanyuan didn't want to leave first. She already knew that Ye Zhiguo was not a good person, and thought that staying would allow her to help.

Ye Qingqing was extremely anxious, so she deliberately said, "My dad is here to pick me up. You can take the bus home by yourself. If you have any questions, just call the class monitor."

As she spoke, she winked at Tang Yuanyuan. Tang Yuanyuan was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood what Ye Qingqing meant.

"Class monitor" was a nickname she and Ye Qingqing gave Lu Mo in private. Ye Qingqing was telling her to go ahead and inform Lu Mo.

"Okay, I'll be going now, goodbye!"

Tang Yuanyuan waved her hand and walked towards the bus stop. Ye Qingqing was relieved to see Tang Yuanyuan board the bus.

"Go home!"

Ye Zhiguo brought the motorcycle over, not giving Ye Qingqing a chance to refuse.

Ye Qingqing had no choice but to get on the motorcycle. She still couldn't figure out what Ye Zhiguo was up to. Maybe he really was just there to pick her up from school!

I don't know how things are going with Lu Mo, so it's best not to alert him!

The motorcycle left the school, and not long after, Lu Mo arrived. He should have arrived earlier, but he was stuck in traffic for about ten minutes.

There were far fewer students at the school gate. Lu Mo waited for a while but Ye Qingqing didn't show up. He guessed that the girl had already gone home after school, so he had no choice but to go home.

As soon as he entered the house, Tiedan said, "Yuanyuan just called and said that your sister-in-law has been picked up by Ye Zhiguo!"
