Chapter 71 The person who came was someone he couldn't afford to offend (2/2)



"Hmm, the exploration teams over at the mine are all reliable, right?" Su Jiaojiao provided a clue, but the specifics would require these people to investigate.

That way, it will be more authentic and no one will suspect anything.

Fu Jingchen thought for a moment before speaking: "They are all credible and there won't be any problems."

Looking at his wife's concerned eyes, Fu Jingchen felt a warmth in his heart.

The unpleasantness caused by Liu Shi also vanished.

Being cared for by my wife is such a blessing.

He felt more than once that getting hurt made his wife so much better, and that it was all worth it.

Hongxing Village.

It was already dark.

Liang Dongmei was fussing with the old village chief inside the cave.

These past few days, Lu Wenshan has been urging Liang Dongmei to come and meet the old village chief in secret.

This disgusted Liang Dongmei.

She was the young mistress of the Su family, enjoying immense prestige for many years.

Now we have to coax this old and ugly thing.

"Village chief, you still haven't told us what that handsome young man was doing here the other day. He must be from the military region!" Liang Dongmei tried several times, but couldn't get the old village chief to open his mouth.

The old village chief has received the money and benefits these past two days, so he's even less likely to talk nonsense.

At this point, the topic was changed: "Recently, people from the military region came and they've been keeping an eye on you. You can't slack off, or it will be very difficult for me here."

Liang Dongmei was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

That old man, he's willing to utter not a single word.

Although the village chief would take care of her to some extent, she lived in the cowshed with Lu Wenshan, and that ingrate really did hit her.

She was terrified of being beaten.

Regardless of the circumstances, we need to figure out Fu Jingchen's purpose in coming here.

The village chief got up, put on his clothes, glanced at Liang Dongmei, and gently shook his head.

The young woman who was so beautiful and vibrant when she first arrived is now no different from any other village woman.

Of course, her face is still better looking than the average person's.

So, the village chief isn't tired of it yet.

He's been getting annoyed lately because he keeps asking about the officer's purpose in coming.

“Your daughter is quite good, it’s just that your method last time wasn’t right,” the old village chief said suddenly, puffing on his water pipe.

Comparatively speaking, Lu Wenshan is much younger and far better than Liang Dongmei.

Upon hearing this, Liang Dongmei froze.

However, she quickly began to consider in her heart why she should care about that ingrate.

If we can get some benefits in return for raising her, then it won't have been a waste of time.

Yes, Lu Wenshan is very cautious.

He also won over quite a few people.

That wretched girl does have some tricks up her sleeve.

It's not that easy to get things done.

The two left the cave separately.

As soon as the old village chief entered the courtyard, his wife called out to him, "Where have you been? Why are you running out in the dark? Someone's here."

His expression was serious, and he seemed somewhat afraid.

The old village chief frowned deeply: "If people are coming, then they are coming. You ignorant fools."

He changed his expression to one of respect as he spoke and pushed open the door to enter the room.

He thought it would be Fu Jingchen, or the person who had come to deliver the money in the past few days.

He opened the door only to find that he was wrong.

Moreover, this person who came is someone he really can't afford to offend.
