Fu Yanchen was smarter than Chu Yue thought. The man didn't even frown. Instead, he looked at Chu Yue with a very shrewd look.
He said, "Comrade Chu, this is a matter between you and me. It has nothing to do with any third person."
Having said that, Fu Yanchen thought in his heart that as long as Chu Yue existed, it was the greatest help to him.
The contract was signed quickly. Fu Yanchen waved his hand and gave all the inventory in the non-staple food mall to Chu Yue. As for the employees in the mall, if Chu Yue was willing to use them, they could stay. If they were not needed, their salaries would be settled and they would be dismissed.
Chu Yue doesn't have to worry about these things. Fu Yanchen's assistant will be responsible for the whole process and take over Chu Yue's transition period.
This comprehensive work style is really hard to fault.
Finally.
Before Fu Yanchen left, his figure suddenly stopped at the door.
Chu Yue looked up at Fu Yanchen in confusion, thinking that he had something else to say.
The cold and sinister man suddenly bowed to Chu Yue and whispered, "Thank you for saving my son."
This sentence of thanks was completely free of calculation and self-interest. Fu Yanchen spoke with unprecedented sincerity.
Without waiting for Chu Yue to react, he stood up and left.
At this moment, Chu Yue saw the shadow of the "once bright and gentle boy" in Pei Mingzhu's words in Fu Yanchen, who once existed vividly.
…
That night, Lu Zhanlin came back very late.
When he came back, it was late at night and Lu Yuanbao was asleep.
A bed was temporarily added in the ward. Chu Yue took a shower in the private bathroom and wiped her hair with a towel in her hand. She saw Lu Zhanlin's face, which was tired but with a hint of joy.
He brought good news, "The case is basically over. The charge is arson. There is no conviction for intentional injury."
Lu Zhanlin felt a little regretful that it was not classified as intentional injury.
However, He Weiguo was there, and there were no casualties, so it would be quite difficult to convict him of intentional injury or death.
Chu Yue was already satisfied with the result and asked, "So fast?"
Lu Zhanlin nodded slightly, "He Meijiao is the mastermind, and the other accomplices have been arrested and have all confessed. Deputy Commander Tan and Commander He have both made great contributions."
"We will invite Fang Xiuli and Deputy Commander Tan to dinner some other day. We will also go to visit Commander He and Mrs. He to thank them properly."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"It's late. You haven't slept for a whole day and night. Go take a shower quickly. Don't worry about anything tonight and sleep peacefully."
"good."
Not long after, the couple lay on the small bed in the hospital, snuggling together quietly.
Lu Zhanlin was really tired. It was an intense car chase and a long interrogation. He Meijiao was crazy and was not an easy person to deal with. He and Tan Siqi were afraid that the night would be long and full of trouble, so they decided to make a quick decision.
As soon as he leaned on the pillow, he smelled the faint fragrance coming from Chu Yue and quickly fell asleep.
Finally, in a trance, he asked a question.
"Wife, when are we going home?"
Chu Yue said softly, "Wait a little longer."
Actually, Lu Yuanbao could be discharged from the hospital today, but Chu Yue was not in a hurry. Lu Zhanlin saw that Chu Yue had other plans, so he did not urge her. Anyway, they were a family together, so any place would be fine.
The next afternoon.
Chu Yue and Ye Zhaodi returned to the commercial street. As soon as they appeared, they were immediately surrounded.
"Boss Chu, we're so glad to see you back. We're planning to send a representative to visit you in the hospital. Are you okay? How are the two children? Are they all right?"
"Boss Chu, you are blessed with good fortune. You will be fine! Boss Chu, we have all received compensation. Your store was burned the hardest. Have you received the compensation? When are you going to reopen the store? Many of your old customers have come to inquire about you in the past two days."
"Boss Chu, the police officers from the police station have been wandering around here these past two days, and have taken many people in for questioning. I heard that someone deliberately set the fire, targeting you? Is that true or not?"
A group of business owners from the surrounding area surrounded Chu Yue. Some were worried, some were curious, and some were there just to watch the fun.
All in all, they were all very happy to see Chu Yue return safely.
Chu Yue and Ye Zhaodi answered some questions vaguely and did not mention anything about He Meijiao's matter. They let the past be the past and turned the page to start a new life.
Chu Yue brought some gifts and went to thank Xu Zhiyi.
On the day of the fire, Xu Zhiyi gave Chu Yue the greatest help.
After seeing Chu Yue, Xu Zhiyi's first reaction was to look her up and down. Seeing that Chu Yue was fine, he asked nervously, "Where is your child? Is the child okay?"
"It's okay. Everything is okay. No one is hurt."
"That's good... That's good... I was really scared when I saw you rushing in that day. Although we have only known each other for a short time, I really like you. Now I'm so glad to see that you are all okay." As Xu Zhiyi spoke, she couldn't help but feel tears welling up in her eyes and secretly wanted to wipe away her tears.
"Just like they said, it was she who put..."
Xu Zhiyi also wanted to ask whether the arsonist was He Meijiao, but when the words came out of her mouth, she shook her head and very tactfully did not ask anything.
Xu Zhiyi said, "As long as the person is fine, nothing else matters."
Chu Yue took the initiative to say, "The murderer has been caught, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."
Xu Zhiyi was stunned at first, then he laughed, feeling happy for Chu Yue, "Can we still be neighbors in the future?"
Chu Yue replied, "Yes, I will."
At this moment, neither Xu Zhiyi nor Ye Zhaodi knew what Chu Yue meant by this sentence.
After a while.
Chu Yue and Ye Zhaodi stood on the street, looking at the house that was now pitch black and looked like ruins after the fire.
Ye Zhaodi's expression was complicated and lonely.
This store was like a new home to Ye Zhaodi. She spent a very happy period of her life there. Whether she was working as a after-sales clerk in the front or organizing the warehouse in the back, all were very beautiful memories.
She pointed to the curb in front of the store and said, "In the spring, we roasted potatoes right here. Sister Yue, me, and Master Pei, the three of us squatted here, eating roasted potatoes with chili powder. It's like what happened yesterday. In the blink of an eye, how did it become like this..."
This store definitely cannot be renovated in a short period of time.
If we close the business for more than half a year, all the word-of-mouth customer base accumulated earlier will be lost.
How could Ye Zhaodi not feel uncomfortable?
Chu Yue patted Ye Zhaodi on the shoulder and said, "Zhaodi, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come. Look back—"
