Wen Xia Nuan paused, her eyes falling on Li Mei. She smiled faintly, "Auntie, this concerns my safety. Can't I even get the truth?"
"Or do you have something on your mind and don't want me to get involved?"
Li Mei's face turned pale, but she couldn't say anything to refute. She knew that the more she spoke, the less benefit she would gain.
"Do whatever you want!"
After Li Mei said this, Wen Xia Nuan walked out of the village committee, but suddenly a barrage of comments appeared in front of her.
[Just wait for our daughter to slap her in the face! ]
[I don't know where Huo Chen put the lock! This man should pay the price for what he did!]
[That's right. He originally went to Huo Jue, but Huo Chen ruined him! He had a good job in town and a capable wife. All the Huo family's resources were clearly in his favor, but he still came to Huo Jue in a show of force and broke his leg!]
Wen Xia Nuan's expression changed and her face instantly became ugly.
She didn't expect that Huo Chen actually broke Huo Jue's leg!
Huo Jue's younger brother is no good either! He's studying in town and colluding with Huo Chen!
She walked in front, her eyes fell on these barrages, and she had a rough idea of what was going on.
"arrive!"
Li Mei paused, looked at the captain, and opened Huo Chen's bedroom door: "Captain, you see, I came here with you and never did anything else."
She pointed inside the house and said, "I opened Huo Chen's bedroom too, but I couldn't find the lock. Don't put these things on me!"
The captain waved his hand towards his nose, and Li Mei leaned back on the door chair with her arms folded across her chest: "Go in and look for it."
"Second Mrs. Huo, aren't you going to clean the house for your son? This smell makes me want to vomit!"
The captain thought that a rough man like himself would not be so sloppy, but he didn't expect that Huo Chen, who looked gentle and refined, was actually so sloppy!
Li Mei was also embarrassed. She looked at the captain and quickly waved her hand: "Don't mention it, just go find it!"
The captain's eyes fell on Wen Xia Nuan, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go together, Wen Zhiqing?"
Li Mei was wary of Wen Xia Nuan. When she heard the captain's words, she quickly said, "Wen Zhiqing is not allowed to go in. She is an unmarried girl after all. How can she enter my son's room?"
Wen Xia Nuan landed on Li Mei's body, with a half-smile on her face: "Aunt, you're wrong again. I came here with the captain to find evidence. I have nothing to do with your son!"
Li Mei's face darkened, and she looked at Wen Xia Nuan with a cold expression: "Wen Zhiqing, I don't like what you said!"
"Captain, let's go in and take a look."
Wen Xia Nuan took the lead and walked forward, while Li Mei followed behind her, staring intently.
The house really stinks. Wen Xia Nuan would never have come in here if she hadn't come to find the lock!
Now seeing Li Mei following behind him, she was not affected and was busy looking for the location of the lock.
"Wen Zhiqing, please be quiet when rummaging around! Our belongings can't handle your might!"
Wen Xia Nuan's eyes were indifferent: "Aunt, is the noise I made really that big of a fuss? Then you're really wronging me!"
Li Mei's expression was cold. Wen Xia Nuan glanced at her calmly, then her eyes fell on the captain. "It's not appropriate for me to search this kang, so as to avoid some people nagging me again. Captain, you can take a look or you can go and take a closer look yourself."
The captain's gaze fell on Wen Xia Nuan. He nodded and looked at her seriously, "Don't worry, Wen Zhiqing. I will definitely look for her carefully."
The captain on the bed was searching, and Li Mei became more and more panicked.
She tried her best to hide her uneasy look, but Wen Xia Nuan could see that something was wrong with her.
Wen Xia Nuan's mind was still, but she kept an eye on Li Mei from time to time.
Li Mei hated Wen Xia Nuan from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't know where her son put the lock!
Before, she was so busy dealing with the captain that she didn't have time to ask Huo Chen!
She was like an ant on a hot pan, anxious and worried that the captain would find something he shouldn't find!
The captain walked down from the kang, panting. He glanced at Wen Xia Nuan and then shook his head: "No."
Li Mei felt relieved, and her previous uneasiness disappeared. "Captain, you can see that I don't have any trace of the lock here!"
The captain glanced at Li Mei with a gloomy expression, but Li Mei was smug to herself: "Captain, please don't look at me like that. I've done everything I should do now. If you can't find it, you can't put the blame on me, right?"
After hearing what Li Mei said, the captain curled his lips and said, "Second Mrs. Huo, I hope you can take good care of your son!"
After hearing what the captain said, she didn't say anything else.
"Wen Zhiqing, shall we go?"
Wen Xia Nuan was definitely unwilling to leave like this. She glanced around and came to her senses at the captain's urging: "Captain, please wait a moment."
The team leader didn't know what Wen Xia Nuan was going to do, but he saw her squatting down and starting to knock on the bricks on the kang.
Li Mei's face was grim. Seeing Wen Xia Nuan banging on the bricks, she reached out to pull them away, but the captain stopped her: "Li Mei, don't do that!"
Li Mei's face also turned unhappy: "Captain, you have already looked for it, and the lock is not in my house. Do you have to let us go?"
She curled her lips and said, "I'm worried that you'll do something crazy when you're like this!"
"Li Mei, what nonsense are you talking about!"
The captain's face darkened as he looked at Li Mei. "You're from the same village, and you're saying these things because you think Wen Zhiqing and I are going to do something to you?"
Li Mei smiled dryly: "Captain, I didn't say that!"
"you!"
The captain was speechless. Li Mei waved her hand and said, "Captain, stop the swearing! I'm not kidding!"
Li Mei snorted softly. Coincidentally, Wen Xia Nuan also hit an empty brick. She turned to look at the captain: "Captain, this brick is empty!"
"Let me take a look."
The chief officer walked over with a sullen face, but Li Mei's heart was lifted again. What on earth was in there?
How come she never knew there was an empty brick on her son's kang?
The bricks were quickly pulled away. Li Mei looked at the scene in front of her with a serious look. Before she could say anything, a copper lock fell out of the brick as it was pulled out.
Li Mei's face turned pale, and she rushed forward to grab the lock that had fallen to the ground, but Wen Xia Nuan stopped her. She immediately picked up the lock and held it in front of the captain: "Take a look."
