What does "under investigation" mean?

What step are we at in the investigation?

Where is he/she?

Even if we can't find out where they are, we still have a general direction, right?

But they didn't even have a vague direction, so how could she feel at ease?

Without a second thought, Han Hongmei scolded Su Wan: "As your younger sister, can't you think about your brother? He's gone missing, and all you care about is your business. I haven't seen you show any concern for him at all."

Su Wan's face froze, and she coldly said, "Does he think he'll come back just because I care about him?"

Han Hongmei was speechless at Su Wan's words, which made her even angrier.

"Shouldn't you care more about your brother?"

“If he had any conscience, he wouldn’t have abandoned his parents and disappeared.”

Su Wan had long since given up on the idea of ​​parents and relatives. Even if you treat her like family, she might not care about you.

Having not seen each other for so long, and the first thing she did upon meeting was to point her finger at her and blame her; Su Wan couldn't think of a reason not to be angry.

Han Hongmei's chest heaved with anger. She stood up abruptly, pointed at Su Wan, and yelled, "Are you thinking that if your brother doesn't come back, all the family's property will go to you?"

"Let me tell you, even if your brother doesn't come back, you won't be able to take a single thing from the house!"

Su Wan was exhausted by Han Hongmei's lack of common sense. "In that case, don't come to me or Qin Yi about Su Shikun anymore."

After saying that, he went to work at his stall.

Han Hongmei was left alone in the same spot.

What exactly did she say?

She clearly wanted to ask Su Wan about the situation in a nice and polite way, so how did it turn out like this?

She closed her eyes tightly. It was all Su Wan's fault for being such an unfilial daughter. She knew she was in a bad mood, but she still insisted on going against her.

Can't she be a little more considerate of herself?

Can't you be even a little bit filial!

Han Hongmei really doesn't know what the point of raising a daughter like this is.

And then there's Su Chengde, whose son is missing, yet he still has the heart to go to work.

Is that lousy company more important than my son?

They were all determined to drive her crazy.

Why is her life so miserable, having such an unreliable husband and daughter?

Han Hongmei stormed out. The market was crowded with people, and Han Hongmei pinched her nose and walked away quickly, somewhat disgusted.

Su Wan watched her retreating figure, her eyes darkening.

Liu Shuang leaned closer: "Sister Su Wan, what's that?"

"My mom."

Liu Shuang could tell that the mother and daughter didn't have a good relationship, so she tactfully said "Oh" and turned to get back to work.

Because she had something on her mind, Su Wan asked Liu Shuang to watch the stall while she prepared to go home early.

As soon as I left the market, I saw a person standing next to my bicycle.

Su Wan frowned.

The man had his back to her and seemed to be using a cane. Su Wan looked closely and realized it was Lu Xing.

Yes, Lin Changchun said a few days ago that Lu Xing was injured.

How did he get here?

Seeing Su Wan approach, Lu Xing smiled apologetically and took a few steps forward, leaning on his cane: "Su Wan."

Su Wan looked at Lu Xing's leg. "How did you get injured?"

Lu Xing: "Hey, it's just a minor injury. It'll heal in a few days. Perfect timing to rest. I'm at the hospital across the street. I was just strolling over while exercising. What a coincidence..."

Since Lu Xing said it was a coincidence, then it was a coincidence.

Not revealing the truth is a sign of mutual respect. She said sincerely, "You should rest now."

Lu Xing's face stiffened slightly. He knew he should rest properly, but his hospital room faced the market, and he stared at it like a statue every day.

I don't know why, but I came here today using crutches.

What are you trying to do?

Lu Xing didn't answer but asked a question instead. It looked like it was still early, and Su Wan shouldn't be closing up shop so early.

Su Wan: "I have some things to take care of at home, so I need to go back early."

Lu Xing: "Then, be careful on the road."

Su Wan nodded, "You too."

Su Wan knew that Lu Xing was unreliable in the past, but now she had no feelings for him whatsoever.

When you love someone, there are a million ways to express it.

There's only one kind of indifference: not loving someone.

A resolute departure.

To Su Wan, Lu Xing was like expired toothpaste—it looked fine on the outside, but was unusable.

Things that can't be used are waste and should be thrown away.

To put it bluntly, she now feels somewhat disgusted by Lu Xing's actions.

He has no standards.

The two families live not far apart; if word gets out about this, it won't sound good.

Watching Su Wan's departing figure, Lu Xing lingered with his gaze for a long time.

A pair of resentful eyes stared intently at Su Wan's back.

The next second, Xu Ruyin jumped out from the side and went to help Lu Xing in a flattering manner: "Why did you come out alone?"

Lu Xing glanced at Xu Ruyin with a nonchalant expression; her face still bore the lingering bruises.

Ever since they met at the hospital, Xu Ruyin has been like a double-sided tape, firmly stuck to him.

Whether he wanted to or not, she would find all sorts of excuses to visit him every day.

Xu Ruyin's sweet talk made Shen Qingxia very happy.

Whenever Xu Ruyin appeared, her mother, Shen Qingxia, would find an excuse to go out and give them time alone.

Lu Xing patiently and repeatedly told Shen Qingxia that he did not like Xu Ruyin. Faced with her son's accusations, Shen Qingxia would only slap him on the back.

He muttered under his breath, "I think Xiao Xu is a good person. He's good-looking and treats you well. Don't be ungrateful."

She glanced around, then poked Lu Xing's head with a look of exasperation: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Let me tell you, no matter how much you like her, she's someone else's wife!"

"You better stop thinking those things."

Xu Ruyin seemed oblivious to Lu Xing's cold expression, and smiled as she helped him up, saying, "I'll help you back."
