Chapter 47 Missing? Dare to touch my people!
When the morning light shone through the curtains, Yang Xueying woke up suddenly. The figure beside the bed almost made her scream out -
Yang Zhongxiu was stroking his watch, and a strange blue light seeped out from the spider-web-like cracks on the surface.
Her father, who usually kept his emotions to himself, now had a solemn look in his eyes that she had never seen before.
"dad?!"
"My watch suddenly cracked yesterday." The hoarse voice was chilled. "I guess something happened to you in Longshan Village."
Yes, the watch is a product of the system, so it must have some sensitivity.
Yang Xueying lowered her head in shame, "I'm sorry!"
She disappointed her father.
"It's not your fault. There are always people who are better than you. We were careless." Yang Zhongxiu patted her on the back and said, "Tell me all the information you have..."
Yang Zhongxiu dismissed everyone and visited his daughter alone. Whatever they discussed, he could hide it from others, but not from Xiaobai and Tang Jingmo.
One has sharp facial features and amazing hearing; the other has maximum mental power and both have super hearing.
"Heh~" A cold light flashed in Xiaobai's eyes, "Want to attack Song Wan? You really know how to pick on the weak!" The vines "whoosh" and shot down two flies.
"In their opinion, Song Wan is close to us and knows something about the inside story. It doesn't matter how much she knows. What's important is that she can prove that we have ulterior motives."
Tang Jingmo stroked his chin, thinking about how to set a trap for the poisonous snake.
It seems that someone is anxious.
Song Wan was still unaware that danger was approaching her.
When she woke up, she found Xiaobai and the others were looking at her like a giant panda.
"What's wrong? Why are you all surrounding me?"
"Song Wan, come here, great contributor, have a bowl of egg custard. This is made for you by County Magistrate Gu himself."
Gu Mingyue carefully held a bowl of egg custard as an offering. She was now very close to her "future sister-in-law".
"Gu Zhongzhang made this? He didn't poison it, did he?" Song Wan looked at "Chef Gu" suspiciously. "If someone is too attentive to you for no reason, he must be a traitor or a thief!"
"I'll tell you, just look at what it means when good intentions go unrewarded!" Gu Zhongzhang hid his scalded hands and jumped up and down.
The two began to bicker again. Xiaobai turned his back and pulled Tang Jingmo out to leave the battlefield.
"Xiao Tang, long time no see."
Yang Zhongxiu's voice was like a knife dipped in honey. He stood beside the jeep, his navy blue Zhongshan suit ironed meticulously. Behind him, his secretary was holding a briefcase, his eyes behind the glasses constantly scanning the surroundings.
Tang Jingmo took two steps forward, his military boots leaving deep marks on the muddy ground. "Minister Yang, you took the time out of your busy schedule to inspect us. Thank you for your hard work."
“This is…”
Yang Zhongxiu turned his gaze to Xiaobai, as if he was looking at a commodity to be appraised.
"Lin Xiaobai, my fiancée." Tang Jingmo brought Xiaobai to his side and introduced her solemnly.
"Xiaobai, this is Minister Yang from the Organization Department. If you have any difficulties in rebuilding Longshan Village, please feel free to ask."
He looked at Yang Zhongxiu "sincerely", "Minister Yang came here to solve our problem, right?"
"Of course, of course."
"That's great, Minister Yang, the great Lord," Xiaobai grabbed Yang Zhongxiu's hand and shook it up and down.
"Finally you've arrived!" She turned around and shouted at the top of her voice, "Fellow villagers! The great judge from the capital has come to give us money and food!"
This shout was like stirring up a hornet's nest.
The tanned Wang Tiezhu was the first to rush over, his trouser legs still stained with pig manure: "Leader! Three beams in my house are broken! It's terrible!"
Aunt Li grabbed Yang Zhongxiu's sleeve and said, "My grandson is crying because he is hungry. The doctor said that children have weak spleen and stomach, so it is best to eat eggs and milk every day..."
In the blink of an eye, Yang Zhongxiu was surrounded by more than 20 villagers.
His carefully ironed Zhongshan suit was wrinkled and there were a few muddy footprints on his leather shoes, but he still maintained a kind smile.
"Don't worry, folks..." Sweat broke out on his forehead, "Xiao Chen!"
The secretary hurriedly held up the registration book: "Everyone line up! Speak one by one!"
"All the problems you have reported can be solved. Come, register with me one by one. Don't delay the meeting between Minister Yang and Staff Officer Tang."
Xiaobai watched coldly, and became more wary of Yang Zhongxiu. As the saying goes, a barking dog never bites.
At the rescue briefing, Yang Zhongxiu sat in the main seat, and the water ripples in the teacup did not move.
"...So we must implement the spirit of 'man can conquer nature'..." He spoke like chanting, his voice lulling people to sleep.
Xiao Bai pinched her thighs hard under the table to keep from falling asleep. When she tried to sneak away for the third time, Yang Zhongxiu suddenly called her name: "What do you think, Comrade Xiao Lin?"
"ah?"
Xiao Bai still had tears from yawning on his lips, "I think... you are right!"
She slapped the table, knocking Gu Zhongzhang's pen flying. "Especially the sentence 'Cadres should lead by example and fight till death', it's so insightful!"
The two men's eyes met in the air, and sparks flew everywhere!
As soon as the meeting was over, Gu Mingyue rushed in in a panic: "Song Wan is missing!"
Xiaobai narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Zhongxiu who was shaking hands with the village cadres - the old fox smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
"When did it happen?"
"He disappeared after lunch." Gu Mingyue stamped her feet anxiously, "He hasn't finished the egg custard in the bowl yet..." She lowered her voice, "Xiao Mao said he saw a stranger go in to see Song Wan, and then..."
"Xiao Bai!" Tang Jingmo waved from a distance, "Come and see Minister Yang off."
What a coincidence, Song Wan is missing, so they are leaving too?
The jeep bumped along the rugged mountain road. Yang Xueying looked back frequently, twisting the corners of her clothes with her fingers unconsciously: "Dad, they really won't catch up with us?"
Yang Zhongxiu stroked the pocket watch in his hand, with a determined smile on his face: "When have I ever failed?" He glanced at the rearview mirror, "No matter how powerful they are, can they predict the future?"
Seeing that his daughter was still worried, he snorted, "How come you have become so timid after staying in Longshan Village for a few days?"
Yang Zhongxiu was dissatisfied with his daughter, suspecting that she did not know the difference between the important and the unrequited love, so he wanted to use his power to get rid of Xiaobai.
Before coming, he investigated Lin Xiaobai in detail, and the feedback he got was that she was just a lucky country girl. Apart from the drastic change in her temperament after she recovered from her illness, there was nothing special about her.
He didn't know that what he saw was a report modified by Tang Jingmo. Nothing was left out that couldn't be known to a third person.
This realization will soon make the Yang father and daughter pay the price.

"Pooh!"
Song Wan spitted accurately on the tip of the kidnapper's shoe. It's been a bad year recently, and I'm in trouble!
She tilted her head to look at the masked man - tsk, he's not even professional in kidnapping, and his trouser legs are still stained with red clay from the back mountain of Longshan Village.
"Do you know who I am?" She raised her orchid finger and pointed at herself. "I, Song Wan, am protected by Lin Xiaobai!"
The man used his dagger to nail a rat in the corner to death. The bright red blood splattered on the wall, which was shocking to see.
"Write! Write down all of Lin Xiaobai's secrets and what Gu Zhongzhang and Tang Jingmo planned, or you will end up like that rat!"
"Wow~ I'm so scared~"
She said she was scared, but there was no fear on her face. "I graduated from Xiamen University!"
Seeing the other party approaching, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly realized the situation and shouted: "Don't worry, brother! I'll write it!"
Song Wan grabbed the pen, shook off the ink, waved her hand, and began to improvise.
What should I write?
Got it!
