This is what happened. Why did this happen? Ruonan was in a state of confusion. Seeing her like this, Ning Haotian comforted her: "Ruonan, don't panic. Think about it. You said someone called Zhuang Sheng last night. Do you know who called him?"
At that time, Ruonan did not ask Zhuang Sheng who called him, but she heard it was Captain Xu.
Captain Xu should be Xu Jiao's father Xu Guohua, who is Zhuang Sheng's immediate superior.
When Ruonan thought about this, her dim eyes suddenly brightened. She looked at Ning Haotian and told him her discovery.
Ning Haotian said, "Since this is the case, it's not difficult to handle. We can go to Captain Xu and ask him specifically what's going on. What do you think?"
Ruonan didn't know what the relationship was between Xu Jiao's father and Zhuang Sheng.
But her relationship with Xu Jiao was not good, and this matter concerned Zhuang Sheng's innocence. Thinking about it, Ruonan felt uncomfortable.
She thought about it and decided that no matter what, she still had to go to Captain Xu's house.
After discussing with Ning Haotian, Ruonan and Ning Haotian came to the conclusion that even if Captain Xu refused to tell them what had happened, they had to find out where they had dinner last night. After finding out, they would know how many people had gone to dinner and could investigate them one by one.
After having an idea, Ruonan became calmer.
In the evening, Ruonan went to Xu Jiao's house. When she knocked on the door, the person who opened it was Xu Jiao's mother.
Xu's mother stared at Ruonan with hostility, looking her up and down, then asked her coldly, "Who are you?"
It was the first time that Ruonan met Xu's mother, but she could feel the strong hatred in her heart. She didn't understand why Xu's mother hated her.
Ruonan said in a gentle voice, "Hello, Auntie. I'm here to see Captain Xu. I have something to ask him."
"You're looking for Captain Xu?" Mother Xu stared at Ruonan and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Auntie, this is a difficult situation. Is Captain Xu home? Can I come in?"
Even though Ruonan was full of patience and gentleness, Xu's mother was still wary and said to her in a cold voice, "No, go back to where you came from."
Before Ruonan could say anything, the door was slammed shut. In this situation, Ruonan was full of questions. What was going on?
She felt that Xu's mother really disliked her. She thought about whether she should let Ning Haotian come. After all, Ning Haotian was so handsome, and Xu's mother would not judge people by their appearance. Maybe she would let him in.
It won’t work here, but Ruonan won’t give up easily.
She looked up at the closed door in front of her, and without any hesitation, she reached out and quickly knocked on the door.
The knocking sound on the door continued loudly, but the door in front of me showed no sign of being opened.
In this situation, Ruonan was not in a hurry. She was full of patience and kept knocking on the door. She had a strong determination and was sure that the door would be opened.
Sure enough, as she expected, the tightly closed door was finally opened.
When Xu's mother opened the door and saw Ruonan, she asked her impatiently, "What on earth are you doing?"
Ruonan looked at Xu's mother very gently. Compared with Xu's mother's extremely unpleasant look, she was very calm.
She said, "Auntie, your husband is a very powerful person. I think you should know better than me."
Ruonan's words were easy to be misunderstood. After she said it, Xu's mother's hatred towards her became even stronger. Xu's mother stared at her with a very bad expression.
He asked her coldly, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Ruonan said calmly, "Auntie, I just came to talk to Captain Xu about something. Please let me in. Otherwise, if I go to his unit to look for him and cause a scene, it won't look good. What do you think?"
Ruonan's eyes were calm, with a smile on her face. Although she was very gentle, her words were full of threats.
Hearing her words, Xu's mother became very emotional and said to her in a cold voice: "You dare..."
Ruonan said calmly: "Auntie, it's not up to you to decide whether I dare or not. You decide for yourself."
Xu's mother now became very passive. Although she was holding the door, she hesitated for a moment and let Ruonan go in.
The decoration of the Xu family is very simple and mostly made of solid wood. It can be seen that the owner is a very tasteful person.
After Ruonan sat down on the large carved chair in his house, Xu's mother stood not far away and stared at her coldly, full of vigilance.
Ruonan thought that kind of vigilance was really funny. She even wondered, was she a lion or a tiger? Was it necessary for Xu's mother to stare at her like that?
Ruonan said, "Auntie, you don't have to stare at me like that. I'm not your enemy."
Xu's mother said to her in a cold voice: "This is my home. I am free to stare at whatever I want."
Well, there was nothing Ruonan could do, but she was still not used to Xu's mother's look.
But she was not afraid at all. She said, "Auntie, you have been staring at me for a long time. Tell me, am I pretty?"
Ruonan's question made Xu's mother, who already disliked her, look even uglier.
Mother Xu snorted coldly and said in a low voice, "Shameless."
Ruonan immediately jumped up from her chair and demanded, "Auntie, why am I shameless? What did I do? Why are you scolding me like that?"
Probably not expecting Ruonan to question her like this, Xu's mother said coldly: "If I say you are shameless, then you are shameless."
Ruonan frowned. Although she came to ask Captain Xu for help, it seemed that she couldn't help herself.
She always treats others the same way they treat her. If others treat her well, she will be twice as good to them.
Of course, if others treat her badly, she will return the favor double.
At this moment, Ruonan twisted her head, knowing that Xu's mother was a very unreasonable person, and she would not be able to get anything out of her even if she tried to reason with her.
So she stopped panicking and sat down calmly on the chair, then said, "Shameless old man."
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but just enough for Xu's mother to hear.
Hearing her words, Xu's mother's face turned ugly and she asked her, "What did you just say?"
Ruonan said calmly, "Shameless old man, what's wrong?"
Hearing her words, Xu's mother pointed at her emotionally and asked angrily, "What did you say? Who are you talking about, woman?"
