Chapter 399 It's over. It's all over now.
"It, it shouldn't happen. Xiaotian is only a few years old. He doesn't know anything at all..." Liu Juan hesitated. She still didn't believe that her son would be taken advantage of by outsiders.
Seeing that Liu Juan was still making excuses for Xiao Tian, He Peng frowned, "Hey! I really don't know what you were thinking. You didn't even tell me about such a big thing!"
Liu Juan immediately complained with dissatisfaction: "How dare you criticize me? Who told you to be away from home all day? You are also responsible for your son's behavior!"
Seeing Liu Juan looking like she wanted to quarrel, He Peng pinched his brows with a headache, "Well, let's not discuss who is right or wrong for now, okay? Let's find Xiaotian and clarify the matter first."
Liu Juan rolled her eyes at him and slammed the door before leaving.
He Peng thought she was angry, and anxiously shouted at her back, "Wife, where are you going?"
"Go find my son!" Liu Juan responded unhappily and went downstairs.
He Peng closed the door without saying a word and went out to look for it.
As soon as I got down from the apartment building, I saw Liu Juan holding the crying Xiaotian with one hand.
The two of them took Xiaotian home together.
After coaxing Xiaotian, Herbert suddenly said seriously: "Xiaotian, tell Dad where did the money you brought home come from?"
“Picked it up.” Xiaotian didn’t dare to look at his father’s expression at all. A hint of panic flashed across his young face.
"Picked it up?" Hearing that his son was still planning to continue cheating, He Peng's face suddenly darkened, "Xiaotian, did your father ever teach you to be honest?"
Facing He Peng's stern gaze, Xiaotian silently lowered his head, bit his lips tightly and said nothing.
He Peng hesitated for a moment, then suddenly relaxed his tone: "Xiaotian, Dad will ask you one last time, was that money really picked up?"
"Yeah!" Although Xiaotian is very young, he can still tell the other person's mood through the adult's tone and micro-expressions.
He heard that He Peng's tone had softened, so he naturally thought that the matter was over.
"Dad, that money was really picked up, and I gave it all to Mom." Xiaotian answered seriously.
Seeing that his son still refused to tell anyone, He Peng felt very depressed.
Beat the child without saying anything about his behavior.
Then we have to take other measures.
He Peng patted Xiaotian on the head and said softly, "Okay, Dad got it. Go play, Xiaotian."
Xiaotian looked up at He Peng in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe this was true.
"Go ahead, Dad, seriously, go and have fun." He Peng said to Xiaotian in the same tone as usual.
Xiaotian walked towards the door with a look of panic on his face, looking back every few steps, still unable to believe that this matter had just passed like this.
After Xiaotian left, the smile on He Peng's face disappeared instantly.
Liu Juan, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but ask: "He Peng, what are you doing? Didn't you say you wanted to get things straightened out? Why did you let this brat out again?"
"You won't get anything out of him by asking him this question." He Peng sighed and turned away.
Liu Juan was completely confused and had no idea what He Peng was up to.
She turned her head and looked at the calendar. Seeing that Chinese New Year was only a few days away, she decided to tidy up the house inside and out so that she wouldn't have to do anything on New Year's Eve.
While sweeping the floor, Liu Juan saw some dust inexplicably appearing on the floor near the bed, and she suddenly felt a little strange.
She sweeps the floor almost every day, so how come there is dust?
Unless it came out from under the bed.
She thought of cleaning under the bed as well.
I leaned half way under the bed and found several cardboard boxes at the innermost part.
These cartons seemed to be what she used to store some groceries.
As the space in the room was too small, they were packed into a cardboard box and placed under the bed.
After thinking about it, Liu Juan took out several cardboard boxes inside.
There was a lot of dust on top of the cardboard box, but a few small handprints could be vaguely seen.
Only Xiaotian can have such small hands.
Liu Juan felt a little strange and opened the carton quickly.
When she saw this, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
Inside this cardboard box, there are a lot of bills of different denominations!
Liu Juan didn't dare to breathe and counted all the money inside. There were a total of several hundred yuan.
He Peng might not be able to take out ten dollars even if he searched his pockets, and his monthly salary was all in her hands before he could even warm it up, so it was impossible for her to have so much money.
Combined with the handprints left on the dust, Liu Juan couldn't help but think of Xiaotian.
She was completely scared now.
Xiaotian might really be...being used by someone with ulterior motives!
Liu Juan rushed out of the house and found Ye Ying.
Before Ye Ying could figure out the situation, Liu Juan quickly took her home.
"Ye Ying, you say...you say Xiaotian won't really be targeted by bad guys, right?" Liu Juan pointed at the money in the cardboard box and looked at Ye Ying worriedly.
Ye Ying quickly glanced at the cardboard box and frowned slightly: "Did Xiaotian bring all this money back?"
"Yes. I guess it's him." Liu Juan's face was extremely ugly. "Given He Peng's personality, it's impossible for him to save private money. I am in charge of all the money he earns!"
"So, I guess it must be that bastard Xiaotian hiding here!"
As she spoke, a few drops of cold sweat rolled down Liu Juan's forehead.
"No, I have to go call He Peng back. This matter is probably not simple."
"Wait a minute, don't be impatient." Ye Ying held Liu Juan's arm and pointed to several other cartons. "What's in these?"
Liu Juan shook her head, squatted down and opened the other cartons one by one.
There are some books inside.
A popular magazine in contemporary times, similar to Storytelling.
Ye Ying was stunned for a moment.
Liu Juan took a look at each one and closed the box again. "Nothing much, just some publications."
After saying that, Liu Juan was about to push the boxes back under the bed, but was stopped by Ye Ying.
"Wait, let me see."
Ye Ying picked up a publication at random and started reading it.
There is no other reason. It is mainly because the publications in the carton are too new, while you can vaguely see that they have been there for some time.
It's no surprise that Ye Ying actually found the "confidential documents" hidden inside these publications!
Ye Ying's face turned pale and she shouted in surprise: "Liu Juan, hurry up! Take out all the books in the box and look through them!"
Seeing Ye Ying's frightened look, Liu Juan stood up in surprise, "What's wrong, Ye Ying? Did you find something extraordinary?"
"Look for yourself!" Ye Ying handed the "private goods" hidden in the book to Liu Juan.
Although Liu Juan could not read many characters, when she saw the word "confidential", she was startled and immediately understood most of it. Her face turned very ugly.
"It's over, it's all over now." Liu Juan looked sad, wanting to cry but unable to: "What should I do now?"
