All three shook their heads. Li Xiuyuan was still worried, so he spoke with each of them separately, but still nothing came of it. There was only one possibility in this situation: none of them knew either.
After seeing the three off, Li Xiuyuan made a phone call to Duan Jun, the director of the town's police station.
Although it was getting late, Li Xiuyuan still dared not be careless in order to ensure the success of tomorrow's unveiling ceremony.
Duan Jun was instructed to have everyone except those on duty at the station change into civilian clothes, drive their private cars, and come to Meilin Village tomorrow. He was to act immediately should any suspicious activity occur.
Tomorrow's unveiling ceremony will surely be a complete and successful one.
By the time Li Xiuyuan finished his work, it was already past 10 p.m.
The entire village committee compound had fallen completely silent. This was actually the first time Li Xiuyuan had rested in the dormitory of the village committee compound in Meilin Village. On the other side, Su Ziying was lying in bed, unable to fall asleep.
After all, they had moved to a new place, and the village was too quiet. There was still some noise coming from Li Xiuyuan's place not far away in the courtyard, and the lights in the room were still on.
Su Ziying thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and sent a message to Li Xiuyuan.
"Still busy so late?"
Li Xiuyuan replied quickly: "Just finished working and was about to rest. Why aren't you asleep yet? Are you having trouble adjusting?"
"No..." Su Ziying typed, then deleted it again, and finally just typed "Hmm" and sent it to Li Xiuyuan.
"Actually, this is also my first time staying in Meilin Village." Li Xiuyuan sent a message to Su Ziying. At this moment, ordinary words of comfort seemed somewhat inadequate.
Su Ziying looked at Li Xiuyuan's message with some surprise: "Really?"
"Really, but the nights in Meilin Village are so beautiful. You can see a sky full of stars right outside your window. It's really beautiful," Li Xiuyuan continued to send messages.
He turned off the lights in the room and sat by the window, while Su Ziying did the same thing in her own room.
At this time of year, in the city, the sky is obscured by clouds due to pollution, and there is also light pollution. Although you can still see some stars, it's nothing compared to the environment in the countryside.
Looking at the starry sky and feeling the tranquility of the rural night, Su Ziying felt a sense of loneliness even more. Only when she saw Li Xiuyuan's room did she feel a trace of warmth, and this loneliness amplified the comfort that Li Xiuyuan provided.
"Am I prettier than you?" Su Ziying typed a few words on her phone unconsciously, but after blushing, she deleted them. It was too direct.
So it was changed to "What kind of girl do you like?"
When Li Xiuyuan received the message, he was taken aback. Was the effect of coming to Meilin Village really that obvious? They were already talking about such topics on the very first night. He was afraid that things were progressing too fast. However, matters of the heart are not like a project. Sometimes they are overwhelming, and sometimes you always feel like there is a window between you and them.
