"Yeah," Ye Beiping glanced at the residential area not far away and said, "I might have to go to Wencheng again in a couple of days. When are you coming back?"
Before Su Xinyi could reply, he continued, "If you feel the air in Pingba Village is good, stay a few more days. I'll pick you up when you want to come back."
"No, my parents said they're going back tomorrow."
When talking about going back tomorrow, Su Xinyi would glance at Tao Qiuyan and Ye Xiaoxin intentionally or unintentionally, as if afraid that they might have some thoughts.
But remembering Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua's instructions before she left, she mustered her courage and asked in a voice only she could hear, "Beiping, um... have you heard about my brother's situation?"
I thought Ye Beiping had just returned and might not know about Su Ze's situation yet.
"I've heard about it." Unexpectedly, Ye Beiping already knew, and his tone became somewhat heavy in his reply.
After all, everyone's mood is definitely not good when someone in the family is arrested.
Although this is Su Xinyi's younger brother, not Ye Beiping's younger brother, he is still considered Ye Beiping's brother-in-law no matter how you look at it.
So Ye Beiping still felt a little regretful.
Once he's in there, it's like having a file that follows Su Ze for life, making it difficult for him to do anything in the future.
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyi bit her lip, closed her eyes slightly, and said, "My mom said... she said you know someone who could help Su Ze?"
She had to use all her strength to say those words.
She was afraid of upsetting Ye Beiping, but she had no choice but to speak up.
Tao Qiuyan and Ye Xiaoxin, who were standing nearby, also heard it, but they turned around on their own.
Tao Qiuyan had heard the specifics from Ye Xiaoxin, and as for who the important figures she knew, she knew more about them than Ye Xiaoxin did, and she also had her own guess.
Age and experience are the key to understanding. Tao Qiuyan already knew this when that leader came to see Ye Beiping before, and now, after Ye Xiaoxin's reminder, she immediately thought of that leader.
Therefore, although Ye Xiaoxin and Su Xinyi had met this leader, they never thought about it in that way.
You have to understand that in this era, being able to ride in a green jeep was no easy feat, especially since there was a dedicated military driver in the green jeep, which was something that ordinary people could not see.
Ye Beiping could also tell from Su Xinyi's tone that something was wrong on the other end of the phone, but what shocked him even more was that he actually knew someone from the police station.
What is all this nonsense? How come I don't know anything about it?
"Xinyi, I... it's not that I don't want to help, the problem is I don't know anyone here. I just arrived in Hangzhou, I don't even know the area yet, how am I supposed to know anyone at the police station?"
Finally, he muttered to himself, "I know a few people in Pingba Village, but they're no match for me in Hangzhou."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Beiping, like Tao Qiuyan, immediately thought of someone.
Jin Aiguo?
That old general?
Hearing Ye Beiping say it himself, Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's probably just rumors."
After all, Ye Beiping knew almost everyone, and there were no powerful figures among them.
They are simply people from Pingba Village.
The two then exchanged a few words and hung up the phone.
After Ye Xiaoxin saw the phone call end, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "How did it go? Did Beiping say he knows anyone?"
Actually, judging from her expression just now, Ye Xiaoxin had already guessed the outcome.
But driven by curiosity, she still went up and asked.
Su Xinyi bit her lip and shook her head: "Beiping said he doesn't know him."
Tao Qiuyan said goodbye to Hou Yongping and then went back.
On the way, Tao Qiuyan thought for a moment and then voiced her guess: "Perhaps Beiping really knows this person, but..."
These words stunned Su Xinyi and Ye Xiaoxin, who stared at Tao Qiuyan in disbelief.
Noticing the gaze, Tao Qiuyan could only sigh and say, "You've seen this person before."
"Have we met before?"
Their unison, like twins speaking in unison, made Tao Qiuyan find it somewhat amusing.
Ye Xiaoxin realized what was happening and frowned, saying, "Mom, are you kidding me? I've been in this family for over twenty years and I don't even know who the important people in Beiping know are."
Hearing this, Su Xinyi trusted Ye Xiaoxin even more.
But since Tao Qiuyan had said so, Su Xinyi began to have some doubts.
It seems a bit chaotic, and my brain isn't quite working properly.
What's going on?
Ye Xiaoxin said she didn't know, Tao Qiuyan said it might be true, but Qiu Mingyue and Peng Tian, two outsiders, were certain that it was.
Judging from Ye Xiaoxin's expression, she seemed even more shocked than he was.
