Chapter 180 Feeling Guilty?



In the middle of the night, Su Rao suddenly woke up and felt footsteps approaching, but after hearing the rhythm of the footsteps clearly, Su Rao relaxed and lay down again.

Su Rao continued to lie down, but Ji Heng hesitated at the door.

Before, sleeping in the same bed with Su Rao was one person, but now when he knocks on the door at such a night, it seems like another person.

Su Rao yawned. Seeing that no one had moved for a long time, she knew that if he continued to delay, she would not be able to sleep tonight.

I couldn't help but frown, "Come in."

Ji Heng's frown deepened.

How could Su Rao be so unguarded?

Do you know who he is? How dare you let him in?

However, this is an adobe house with wooden doors and windows, and there is no sound insulation at all. If he continues to pester people here, he will definitely be heard.

The trouble caused to Su Rao might be even greater.

He could only push the door open and go in.

Su Rao didn't get up, nor did she light the oil lamp again. She was still in bed, just looking over from the other side in the moonlight.

Ji Heng was filled with indescribable anger and annoyance. "Why are you so unguarded?"

"You know exactly how Su Xinyue and the others are plotting against you, how could you let outsiders in without any precautions?"

Especially, she allowed someone to enter her bedroom directly.

Ji Heng was really a little angry.

Su Rao just pulled it.

She exerted her strength and dragged him directly onto the bed. She turned over and pressed on him.

Although they had no contact for a whole night, Su Rao still missed the spiritual power in him.

The difference between having Ji Heng and not having Ji Heng is really huge.

Now that she was close to him and felt his strong spiritual energy, Su Rao felt much happier. "You are not an outsider either."

Ji Heng felt his heart blossom with joy in an instant, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Does what Su Rao just said actually mean that Su Rao trusts him enough, so she is not on guard at all in front of him?

But thinking about the investigation today, Xiao Er frowned, "This house is so simple, how could you be so careless?"

"I arranged for someone to keep an eye on Li Ergou, and only then did I know that Li Ergou was almost silenced."

Su Rao uttered a soft "Huh" and looked up at Ji Heng. "Not dead?"

Ji Heng nodded. "Li Ergou is quite clever. He was about to come find you. I have someone arrest him."

Ji Heng frowned. To be able to kill people and silence them, the methods used by Su Xinyue and Xiaoru were really not simple.

It had been twenty or thirty days since the liberation of the country, and with the existence of the militia, although there were many conflicts among the various brigades and in the countryside, only a few resulted in deaths.

Ji Heng couldn't help but look down on this method of killing people to silence them. What's more, this girl was also connected with Su Rao.

Ji Heng was so frightened that he immediately returned here. At this moment, he couldn't help but look at Su Rao carefully, observing her condition.

Su Rao also guessed that Li Ergou was indeed a smart man.

Besides,

Su Rao wouldn't care if this person was silenced. In fact, Li Ergou himself was just bait.

What kind of sneaky things has Li Ergou not done? He is a wicked man, otherwise, he would not have come up to Su Xinyue as soon as she opened her mouth, trying to play the game of catching someone in bed with him.

The more methods the other party has, the more clues Su Rao can naturally get.

Su Rao didn't think of asking Ji Heng to have someone keep an eye on that place, and even rescued Li Ergou.

She couldn't help laughing, and her smile caused a slight tremor, which directly caused friction between her and Ji Heng.

Ji Heng was so shocked that his entire body stiffened.

Su Rao didn't notice it. She touched her chin and looked at Ji Heng again. She had limited abilities and it was difficult for her to investigate the past relationship between the Su and Ji families. But with Ji Heng, things were different.

"What did you find out?"

Ji Heng didn't hide it, "The person behind Qi Xiaoru is Qi Xiaoheng. Qi Xiaoheng contacted the imperial capital this time, but the imperial capital is in chaos, so we haven't found any clues yet."

"This action must have been decided by Xiaoheng on his own."

"I've already sent a telegram asking someone to investigate all of Xiaoheng's experiences in the imperial capital. I'll let you know as soon as I find any clues."

Su Rao nodded, but she hadn't thought that there would be clues so early.

"They've started to attack me, and I guess they won't let my father and grandfather go either. Please help me take care of them."

Ji Heng nodded and added, "This year's policies have begun to relax, and the problems of your father and grandfather may begin to be resolved."

Su Rao lowered her eyes. So, in her previous life, it was actually because Su Xinyue framed her daughter, and because of her physical defects, her father and grandfather gave birth to her daughter.

Her eldest brother also sent medicine, so the problem shouldn't be serious. She should go find her second brother and the others and bring them over soon.

Seeing that Su Rao stopped talking, Ji Heng was still hesitant.

He was still wondering whether he should tell Su Rao about the matter related to Li Hao.

But I don't know why, I always feel that when he says it, it seems like he has more than pure thoughts, just like the last time he faced Yu.

Just as Su Rao was thinking about it, she realized that something was wrong with Ji Heng, "Are you feeling guilty?"

Ji Heng stiffened, coughed lightly, and cleared his throat, "No, it's not."

"I met with Lu Lihao at your place today, and I remembered what you said about someone deliberately targeting the industry and technology behind the Qi family. So I think I should mainly investigate those related to the medical industry."

Ji Heng then looked at Su Rao and whispered, "So, I took the opportunity to investigate Lu Lihao."

Su Rao's expression changed.

Even Ji Heng, who was standing next to you, noticed her abnormality.

"Shouldn't I check?"

"I just bumped into him and noticed he's really interested in you. Besides, you'll have to go to the hospital more often, and he's also from the capital, and besides...

Su Rao looked at Ji Heng, and looked at his face in the meager moonlight, "Why are you explaining so much?"

Ji Heng stiffened instantly.

"I, I, I didn't..."

Su Raoyu, "It's not your style to explain so much all of a sudden. There are obvious problems."

Ji Heng: ...

Su Rao couldn't help laughing, "What did you find out?"

Ji Heng paused, "No."

“Not too much.”

Su Rao raised her eyebrows, "Not too many, but you did find some?"

Ji Heng tried to act impartially, "The reason he came here was Yan Chuanliang. However, he came quite late. Not long after he arrived, your grandfather's family left..."

"What's the relationship between Xiaoheng and the Lu family?" Su Rao asked

Ji Heng replied, "No."

"There's no particular connection between them."

"There are some clues about who kidnapped Li Ergou this time. I'm still investigating, but I don't have any clues yet."

Su Rao asked, "What can't be found on Captain Meng in the provincial capital?"

Ji Heng shook his head. "Impossible. They're only trying to kill me now because they feel sorry for Xiaoru. Being deceived by Xiaoru isn't a big sin in itself. But once they admit something else, he'll come out."

Therefore, he would never speak nonsense.

Su Rao nodded thoughtfully, "Do you think Su Xinyue and Xiaoru know who is behind this?"

Ji Heng shook his head. "It's impossible for him to know. Maybe Xiao Heng didn't even know about it. He probably only wanted to take things from them."

Su Rao had guessed this a long time ago, so she was not disappointed.

She leaned over. The bed in the cowshed was just a small single bed. If Ji Heng lay down, Su Rao couldn't lie down either. The two of them were almost overlapping.

Ji Heng asked, "Do you suspect him too?"

When he said this, Ji Heng was a little nervous.

He also didn't know whether Su Rao really doubted Lu Lihao, or, as Lu Chengcheng said, Su Rao just liked Lu Lihao, so she paid so much attention to him.

After all, no matter how you look at it, Lu Lihao is a pretty good candidate.

Between him and Su Rao, they have the same profession, so the topic is the premise.

When the two of them talked together, it was very pleasant and there was no obstacle at all.

He could also see that Lu Lihao was also very interested in Su Rao.

Su Rao lay on top of Ji Heng and spoke vaguely, "I do have suspicions, but they are without any reason."

Ji Heng's eyes suddenly lit up.
