Fu Hongxing was startled by Ning Jing's sudden hug, and then when he saw the tears on her face, his heart clenched as if pricked by a needle.
"What's wrong? Tell me, what's wrong?"
Ning Jing blinked, and her tears flowed even faster.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Sensing Ning Jing's fear, Fu Hongxing patted her back tenderly.
Xiuhua and Tiedan heard the sound of the courtyard gate being opened, but no one came into the house. They instinctively opened the door and went out, only to see this scene before them.
"ah……"
Xiuhua's face flushed crimson in an instant. She hurriedly turned and ran into the house, pulling Tiedan inside as well.
"Second sister, what's wrong with sister-in-law?"
Tie Dan broke free from Xiu Hua's grip and tried to rush out of the house, but Xiu Hua grabbed him again.
"Tiedan, your big brother is here! Don't... don't disturb them."
Xiuhua blushed and whispered to Tiedan for advice.
Having shared a room with her sister-in-law for so long, she had almost forgotten that her brother and sister-in-law were husband and wife, a real married couple.
Logically, they should be sleeping in the same room.
Thinking of the scene of the two people hugging just now, Xiuhua slapped her face and covered her face with her hands, feeling as if her face was about to be boiled.
Ning Jing was unaware that Xiu Hua and Tie Dan had caught her red-handed. After hearing Fu Hongxing's words of comfort, she looked up and sniffled.
"It's nothing, I just felt I shouldn't have disobeyed you."
Upon hearing Ning Jing's words, Fu Hongxing's heart stirred.
What happened?
When Fu Hongxing pressed her for answers, Ning Jing recounted with some frustration how Niu Jinhua's husband, Director Jia, had been reported and subsequently arrested and investigated by the G Committee.
After he finished speaking, he looked slightly uneasy.
"Are you worried that the G Committee will find out about your deal with Niu Jinhua?"
Seeing Ning Jing's worried expression, Fu Hongxing made a pointed remark.
Ning Jing pouted and nodded.
Fu Hongxing noticed that her eyes were red and there were still tears on her eyelashes.
After thinking for a moment, he patted her on the back and offered some words of advice.
"Don't worry, the fact that Director Jia was reported and arrested this time should not have a direct connection with Niu Jinhua's buying and selling."
However, it's best to avoid any contact with her for the time being.
Ning Jing nodded quickly. After returning home, she became more and more frightened, almost scaring herself to death.
"Really? Then why was Director Jia reported and arrested?"
Then, as if struck by a sudden thought, Ning Jing asked curiously.
Fu Hongxing twitched his lips and said in a low voice, "It's probably some other problem! You don't need to worry too much."
After coaxing Ning Jing back into the house with some skepticism, a serious expression finally appeared on Fu Hongxing's gentle face.
It seems the other side acted quite quickly.
"Father, have you found anything?"
After getting off work, Luo Yuling rushed home and asked Luo Changcun.
Luo Changcun glanced at his daughter and then shook his head.
"That guy surnamed Jia insists that it was an extra favor from above that allowed his wife and niece to get a job at the factory. He has absolutely no connection with the person you're talking about."
If he hadn't met the Chen family and heard the undisguised look of disgust on Fu Hongxing's wife's face when he mentioned her, he would have almost doubted whether his daughter was telling the truth.
