After her death, Su Di discovered she was living inside a book where the female protagonist became wealthy and successful in the past era.
Unfortunately, she wasn't the female protagonist...
If Qi Feng were to inquire further and learn about their past, he wouldn't think that way.
Reborn, Suti never cared about other people's opinions.
Even if nothing has happened yet, she could laugh it off even if she had been framed.
In the face of life, reputation is nothing but a fart.
"Uncle, don't worry. Since they're after me, they'll definitely use more than just these methods. If I'm defeated now, it means I'm incompetent."
"I'd like to call my grandfather. Could you please take us to the commune?"
Suti didn't take those things to heart at all, and Qi Feng looked at her with even more admiration, thinking, "What a wise and unassuming girl!"
He drove his men to the commune post office, and after Su Ti made a phone call and explained the situation, Commander Guo pondered for a moment.
"I was wondering why those people had been so well-behaved lately. Turns out they were trying to take advantage of you. My dear, your father has been transferred. He's now the Minister of the Planning Department of Shanghai."
"This is a new department, and the higher-ups put a lot of thought into this candidate. Your father's selection has also blocked the way for many others."
"Also, your brother has done a great service this time. Perhaps our Guo family has been making too many moves lately, which has frightened those people."
"I originally thought they had backbone and dared to confront us head-on, but I didn't expect them to be a bunch of scoundrels who actually tried to scheme against you."
"Nannan, don't be afraid. Since they dare to make a move, our Guo family won't back down either."
Commander Guo made a quick decision to cause trouble for those people, partly to let them know that he already knew about their affair.
Another aspect is to keep them busy with their own problems, so they won't have the energy to cause trouble for Nannan.
"Grandpa, Uncle Qi from the Qi family is here, so we'll be fine here." Su Ti thought that was good.
There has to be a reason for them to agree to go back to Beijing with him, and isn't this reason just right?
It's dangerous here; they have to leave.
"Oh? He went?" Commander Guo was surprised. The Li family acted quickly and decisively, much more so than they had.
“Yes, I think the time is about right. We plan to go back with them this time.” Suti glanced at the people sitting in the car; he was also looking at them.
She was very careful with her words, afraid that he might be able to read lips.
“It’s good to go back. It’s not necessarily safe where you are. Don’t worry, Nannan. Even if you go to Beijing, with the Guo family here, you can just hold your head high.”
Commander Guo knew very well that given some time, he could find an opportunity to bring the two children back to Shanghai openly and legitimately.
However, the Guo family is indeed a step behind the Li family, and he could have a better future if he followed them back to Beijing.
People always strive to reach higher goals.
The two talked for a while. Suti made the call because she wanted to get her grandfather to pay more attention.
On the way back, Qi Feng unusually remained silent, pondering how to use this incident to persuade the two children to return.
He didn't know that everything he was thinking was within Suti's expectations; he was just waiting for him to speak.
But he remained silent until dinner time, which made Suti, who was prepared to say something, unable to speak.
As darkness fell completely, the hesitant person still hadn't uttered what they should have said.
Thankfully, Xiao Liu came back and was whispering to Qi Feng about something.
In the quiet of the night, people's hearts are always uneasy.
The knocking on the door startled the sleeping people awake.
"Who is it?" Wei Baichuan had just come out when Qi Feng and Xiao Liu pushed open the door.
"Brother Wei, it's me." Hu Ziqiang looked around cautiously.
Wei Baichuan recognized the voice and peeked through the crack in the door to make sure it was him before opening it.
"Brother Wei, to make a long story short, I found a group of people in the mountains who want to deal with you. Be careful lately."
When Hu Ziqiang saw Wei Baichuan come out, he quickly relayed what Wei had overheard in the mountains.
"Have you contacted your family?" Wei Baichuan was well aware that someone was trying to target them.
He had just returned from the Hu family's place today. He knew that the Hu family had probably been used by someone, and now Hu Ziqiang had come to see him again.
He was afraid there was something fishy going on, and he didn't trust anyone.
"No." Hu Ziqiang didn't know why Brother Wei mentioned those people; they probably all thought he was dead.
"It's nothing. I just saw them when I went to work at the brigade during the day, and they mentioned you. Then you came over in the evening. It's really quite a coincidence."
As Wei Baichuan spoke, he observed Hu Ziqiang's expression. When he mentioned those people, Hu Ziqiang's face showed only disgust, not a trace of guilt.
“Brother Wei, you don’t need to deal with them for my sake. I have no connection with them whatsoever.” Hu Ziqiang clearly knew nothing about it.
They were afraid that Brother Wei would give them a friendly face because of him, which would be infuriating.
After some probing, Wei Baichuan could only temporarily believe that it was indeed a coincidence. He thanked the person before entering the house.
"It seems those people can't wait to make their move." Wei Baichuan thought his wife was right; it's hard to guard against thieves, so it's better to eliminate the trouble altogether.
"Either we deal with them and return to Beijing without any worries, or we give them a false impression and return to Beijing."
"They don't have the ability to follow us to Beijing and cause us trouble, don't you think?"
Su Di was not asleep. As soon as he entered the room, Wei Baichuan told him what had happened outside.
“That’s right. That person seemed hesitant to speak just now, which clearly meant he had something to say to me.” Wei Baichuan agreed with his wife.
No matter what, they were going back to Beijing. These people couldn't stop them. He was more curious about what that person wanted to say to him.
"He probably wanted to persuade us to go back, but he was afraid we would refuse." After spending the last two days with him, Su Di could tell that he was decisive and not indecisive.
He'll probably speak up soon; they just need to wait.
But accidents often happen more unexpectedly than we imagine.
Before Su Di and the others could make a move, what she expected happened first.
"Captain, something's happened! The bridge collapsed! People are dead!" The team members scrambled into the brigade headquarters, their faces filled with panic.
"What's going on?" The captain was taken aback and quickly came out to greet them.
Not only did several squad leaders from the brigade headquarters come over, but the team members also gathered around, chattering amongst themselves.
"The bridge collapsed just now. People from the next brigade ran back first. They said a lot of people died. Brigade leader, what should we do?"
The team members were horrified when they thought about how those people had been covered in blood.
"Has Wei Laosan returned?" The captain's question silenced everyone.
Yeah, even if the bridge collapses, it has nothing to do with their brigade.
As long as the team members they sent out returned safely, that would be fine, but now Wei Laosan has not returned.
