Chapter 26: Lure the Man into a Trap

Yu He was one of the four suspects in the incident that night at the social gathering, and she had also warned Rong Zhen to be careful of Zhao Hongxing when she met her by chance in the department store.

Other than that, they don't have much in common.

So when Rong Zhen heard the other party's purpose, she was very surprised: "You said you were getting married, and wanted me and Qin Fengnian to be witnesses?"

"Yes." Yu He nodded and walked into the courtyard. After sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, she explained to the puzzled and surprised Rong Zhen, "You and Engineer Qin have been married and are living a loving and happy life. I don't know how many people in the factory envy you. It would be a great omen if you could come and officiate my wedding, so please."

Rong Zhen didn't agree immediately. Thinking of the scene when she and Qin Fengnian held their wedding, she carefully said, "It's not that I don't want to help, but shouldn't I ask the factory leaders for help with this matter?"

For example, the factory director and others.

At that time, the factory director was the witness of Rong Zhen and Qin Fengnian's wedding. He was very happy to do such a good thing. If Yu He asked her father to invite him, the factory director would not refuse.

"That's right, but..." A hint of shyness flashed across Yu He's face. She took out a big red invitation from her small bag and motioned Rong Zhen to open it.

Rongzhen took it and opened it. She was first amazed by the beautiful handwriting on it, and then her eyes noticed the names of the newlyweds.

Bride: Yu He.

Groom: Bai Shengze?

There are very few people with the surname Bai here. As far as she knows, there is only one person, and she discovered it when she heard Qin Fengnian call the other person one day.

That is the factory director’s most capable assistant, Secretary Bai.

I didn't expect that he would marry Yu He. Fate is really wonderful.

Rongzhen congratulated him, "So your marriage partner is Secretary Bai. You two seem like a perfect match."

Yu He thanked them generously and said that it was because of this that the factory director was invited in advance by the man's secretary Bai, and she was a step late, so she wanted to ask Rong Zhen and his wife to be the witnesses on the woman's side to calm the situation, so that she would not appear inferior to the man and be shorter than him before she even entered the door.

It was the first time that Rongzhen knew that both parties could invite witnesses, and even compete with each other.

Maybe this is how they get along as a couple?

Rong Zhen did not comment on the specific reason. He went back to discuss it with Qin Fengnian and agreed to it.

The wedding date was set for a week later, which felt a little rushed, about the same time as Rongzhen and her husband's.

But that's how it is at that time. Men and women don't act rogue when they fall in love. They are all aiming for marriage. Once they have chosen someone, they won't waste time.

Qin Fengnian is very efficient in doing things, especially when it comes to matters concerning the safety of his family.

Since he had already planned to send the children to the Children's Palace for summer camp, he immediately signed up his four children as soon as school was on vacation.

Although the Jinyu brothers were reluctant to spend time with their Aunt Jiaojiao, they also knew that their uncle was doing this for their own good. He wanted them to learn more and make more friends, so they were quite willing to leave.

But Chanchan and Juanjuan were not like that. When they left, they looked sticky and looked back every three steps, as if they would never come back.

It was not until they entered the summer camp and saw so many familiar friends that the two sisters became lively again. It turned out that everyone was there, so it was no different from going to school. They soon had a lot of fun playing with their friends.

As soon as they sent the people in, Yu Jiao came to the door with some gifts and said she came to see the two Jinyu brothers.

Rongzhen treated her with the same attitude as last time and told her that the children were going to summer camp and would not be home until more than a month later.

Yu Jiao was surprised: "You sent it right after the holiday? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Rong Zhen said without surprise, "All city kids are like this. They have to learn new things every second and can't fall behind others."

She did not mention that the Children's Palace could allow parents to visit.

Yu Jiao didn't know whether she didn't understand or didn't care, and she didn't say she wanted to go there to take a look.

The two chatted awkwardly for a while, and Rongzhen felt that she had nothing to say, but she saw Yu Jiao's gaze shift, and she seemed to notice the small animal dolls they placed on the windowsill very naturally.

"Why did you leave it outside? It will get wet easily due to rain and dew, and it will be difficult to clean if it gets covered in dust." Yu Jiao kindly reminded.

Rongzhen looked helpless and said that it was the children's idea. They wanted to let them bask in the sun and moon, and maybe they would grow up.

Children's ideas are always wild and imaginative, so it's not surprising that they would do this.

Yu Jiao smiled in understanding after hearing this. It was unclear whether she believed her excuse or not. She just sincerely suggested that it would be better to keep these little toys inside the house so that they could be preserved for a longer time, such as using them as ornaments on the bedside table.

Of course, if there is any damage, you can also ask her to repair it directly, which is more convenient.

Rongzhen nodded in agreement, but only said yes without taking any action.

Yu Jiao didn't insist. She just said it casually and changed the subject, mentioning her cousin's wedding a week later.

Rongzhen suddenly realized the situation, "Could your cousin be Yuhe?"

Yu Jiao and Yu He, I should have thought of them earlier. They both have the surname Yu and similar names. On the first day of her visit, Yu Jiao mentioned that she had a distant relative here.

Sure enough, Yu Jiao later confessed that Yu He was the daughter of her distant uncle, and they were cousins ​​in terms of kinship.

"I see. That's why I felt you looked familiar when I first saw you." Rongzhen suddenly realized.

Wait, Yu He, as her cousin, is about to get married, but Yu Jiao seems to be still single?

This question flashed through Rongzhen's mind, but she didn't ask anything rashly, for fear that she might ask the wrong question and arouse her vigilance.

However, this question was unexpectedly answered by the Jinyu brothers when she went to visit the children at the Children's Palace.

Rong Zhen suddenly asked about Yu Jiao's lifelong affairs. Qin Huaiyu, who had been chattering non-stop, suddenly fell silent. The usually taciturn eldest brother, Qin Huaijin, hesitated and said, "Aunt Jiaojiao has always had someone in her heart. She never mentioned it, but we all know it."

That man was their father, Qin Fengnian’s elder brother, Qin Yunian.

Rong Zhen tentatively asked about the past of the two, and slowly got out some stories about Yu Jiao in the northwest from the mouths of the Jinyu brothers.

It turns out that although Yu Jiao doesn't look very old, she has actually been in the Northwest for more than ten years. She has also known Qin Yunian for more than ten years and has always been deeply in love with him.

But for some reason, Qin Yunian had no such thoughts about her, and he did not choose her as his marriage partner in the end, but another local girl who was in love with him and was also one of Yu Jiao's friends.

Seriously speaking, Yu Jiao was actually the matchmaker for the couple, as they got to know each other through her.

However, Yu Jiao, who was in love with Qin Yunian, later withdrew from the relationship and became friends with the couple. She also often took care of the children after Qin Yunian's wife passed away.

After Qin Huaijin knew about these things, he thought that his father would be moved by Aunt Jiaojiao sooner or later and start a new family with her. However, his father never had that intention. Until he followed his mother, he still only regarded her as a friend.

After learning about it, Rongzhen confirmed that Yu Jiao should be the real one and not replaced by someone else, otherwise the two brothers who had been with her for so many years would not have failed to notice it.

But since she had lived in the Northwest for so many years, her identity should be fine. Why would she do something like snooping? Or did they misunderstand her and she was just being used, and the incident actually had nothing to do with her?

Rongzhen went home that night and told Qin Fengnian all her findings and suspicions.

Qin Fengnian put down his drawing tools and analyzed, "It's obvious that either her identity is truly impeccable, or she is a deeply hidden enemy spy from her early years."

Rong Zhen's face turned serious when he heard this. It would be fine if there was no problem, but if he was really an enemy spy, wouldn't such a person be very dangerous?

Then they were right to separate the child from her.

"In the future, you should try to have less contact with her. Avoid contact with her alone if possible." Qin Fengnian reminded him as he finished the last stroke.

Then he walked into the living room and placed the finished blueprint on the windowsill inside, separated from the little doll on the windowsill outside by only a layer of glass.

Rongzhen followed and saw it, and asked curiously, "I see you spent a long time on this drawing recently. It must be very important. Why did you put it here? How about I help you find a box to put it in?"

Qin Fengnian stopped her and held her hand. He scratched her palm with his fingertips and said, "No need. As the old saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. It's so important that if we put it away, it will be easily discovered. It's better to leave it here."

Rong Zhen was convinced by him and said with admiration: "You really have a way. Others would never think of it."

In a secret room not far away, the woman who heard their conversation curled her lips in disdain, her eyes full of contempt and her face eager to try.

Time flies and it is the day of Yu He's wedding. Rong Zhen and Qin Fengnian have just changed into suitable clothes when Yu Jiao comes uninvited. She says that she doesn't know anyone here except her cousin's family and she is only familiar with them, so she wants to go with them.

Rongzhen and his wife looked at each other and agreed readily.

The wedding was held in the factory cafeteria. The three of them took the bus to get there. After getting off the bus and passing by the public toilet, Yu Jiao blushed and said that she wanted to go in to relieve herself.

Rongzhen and Qin Fengnian were waiting for her outside. During this time, an old man with a hunched back came over and started cleaning with tools.

"Is it him?" Rong Zhen took a look and recognized that the man was actually Li's father.

Unexpectedly, after Li Jun was shot, he was still doing the job of a cleaner. Considering that he had six hungry children at home, it is not difficult to understand.

Qin Fengnian also recognized him, but didn't say much.

A moment later, Yu Jiao finished taking care of her three urgent needs and hurried out to apologize to them: "Sorry, I kept you waiting. Oops!"

She ran so fast that she accidentally bumped into Mr. Li who was working hard, and her new clothes were immediately covered with dust.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Father Li apologized stiffly and kept bowing.

Yu Jiao wanted to cry but had no tears: "I just bought a new dress, specially prepared for attending my cousin's wedding."

Rongzhen didn't see much dust on her, it was just more obvious because her clothes were light-colored.

She reminded the other party that he could wipe it lightly with a towel dipped in water, otherwise it would be too late to go back and change clothes.

Yu Jiao opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she met Qin Fengnian's questioning gaze, she had to give up.

In the end, the clothes were dealt with according to Rongzhen's suggestion, and Yu Jiao reluctantly and generously forgave Li's father's offense.

After this delay, they arrived at the wedding scene a little late. Yu He asked about this matter casually when she came to invite Rongzhen and his wife to sit at the main table. Rongzhen gave a brief explanation.

Secretary Bai, who was accompanying Yu He, glanced at Yu Jiao and said with a gentle smile, "It's okay, as long as you can come."

After he looked away, Yu Jiao raised her head and glanced at his back as he turned away.
