"Hmm." Ruan Qingling nodded and said, "I saw a sign over there that says Dog Tooth Alley."
Song Shiting's eyes were unusually cold as he said, "It should be Zhao Dongsheng's house."
Ruan Qingling slightly lifted her eyelids.
"So Fan Aihua is in cahoots with Zhao Dongsheng? And Lu Qiu knows Fan Aihua? Or is Fan Aihua recommended by Lu Qiu because of her connection with Zhao Dongsheng?"
"But why did Lu Qiu swallow the pills? Was it because Zhao Dongsheng wanted to frame you?" she suddenly asked me this question.
Song Shiting said, "I'll go check it out later."
There must be some connection between Zhao Dongsheng and Lu Qiu.
Ruan Qingling said, "Zhao Dongsheng's position in the town is secure. He has deep roots here and there, so he must have many people helping him. You need to be careful when you investigate these people. Lu Qiu's case is enough for us to reflect on."
Song Shiting looked at her, and the corners of his mouth inexplicably turned up slightly: "Don't worry, I'll be careful."
Ruan Qingling was completely captivated by his sudden, faint smile.
I even felt my heart beating a little faster.
Someone like her, who's only ever seen a pig walk by but has never eaten pork, was actually made to have her heart pound because of his smile.
It seems that I'm growing to like this man more and more.
After dinner, Song Shiting went out, while Ruan Qingling stayed home to take care of Ya Ya and write her own prose poems.
Ya Ya was tired from playing and had fallen asleep. Ruan Qingling glanced at the clock on the table.
It's 10 o'clock!
We haven't seen Song Shiting return yet!
She frowned slightly. In her opinion, Song Shiting had just returned and was already weak.
Zhao Dongsheng definitely has an advantage over Song Shiting in the local area.
It would be quite difficult for Song Shiting to take on Zhao Dongsheng by herself, and she frowned.
Just then, Song Shiting returned from outside.
Seeing the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, Ruan Qingling asked, "How is it? Have you found out?"
"Hmm." Song Shiting responded, turned around, picked up a cup from someone next to him, poured himself a glass of water, gulped it down, and then said, "We found out. Lu Qiu is a gambler and has a lot of gambling debts. He wants to use this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, harm me, and get rid of his gambling debts without any consequences."
Ruan Qingling asked directly, "Who gave him this idea behind the scenes?"
Song Shiting put down his cup: "I don't know who gave him the idea, but this matter cannot be left unresolved."
Ruan Qingling: "How did you find out all this so quickly?"
Song Shiting looked at Ruan Qingling, a hint of a smile appearing on his cold face.
He must have had his own way of doing business before, and he must have had his own group of people, otherwise where would he sell all those wild animals he caught every night?
These are enough for him to gather information when needed.
Besides, how could someone who can do this kind of business not have any connections?
Finding out news about Lu Qiu is a piece of cake.
Ruan Qingling hadn't thought of this for a moment, and always felt that Song Shiting had been transferred back from outside.
After a while, she seemed to remember something and looked at Song Shiting with deep eyes.
Song Shiting had already turned around to get his clothes and a bucket, preparing to take a shower.
Ruan Qingling said, "You can't take a bath."
Song Shiting said, "I'm covered in sweat, so I'll be careful to avoid the wound."
Wiping other areas with water will make them feel better.
Ruan Qingling said, "It's your body, I have no objection to how you want to protect it, but don't leave any aftereffects."
Song Shiting said, "Absolutely not."
Ruan Qingling stopped paying attention to Song Shiting and closed her eyes to go to sleep.
When Song Shiting came in, Ruan Qingling was already asleep.
...
After having breakfast, Ruan Qingling prepared to take Ya Ya to Aunt Lan's place.
Song Shiting said he would take Ya Ya there.
Ruan Qingling glanced at him.
Song Shiting said, "My injuries are almost healed now, and I should be able to remove the stitches soon."
Ruan Qingling: "Not yet, change the dressing on time."
After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Do I still need to go to the bureau today?"
Song Shiting: "Some people from the city will be coming to verify this matter today. I just need to cooperate when they need me to."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to come back so quickly.
Ruan Qingling: "Won't there be another problem?"
Song Shiting said, "Don't worry, there shouldn't be too many problems for now!"
Ruan Qingling looked at his face and said, "It's good that there are no problems."
Song Shiting: "Go to class."
Half an hour after Ruan Qingling left, Song Shiting planned to take Ya Ya to Aunt Lan's place.
The wound healed quickly, and he can now hold Yaya with his right hand without any problems.
As he was carrying Ya Ya, preparing to come out...
Song Zhen came to find him.
Song Zhen is the eldest son of his uncle's family.
"Third brother, are you going out? That's perfect, I came to find you."
Song Shiting looked at him with a deep, unsettling gaze.
Song Zhen: "Your father is sick. I want you to go back and see him."
"Hmm," Song Shiting simply replied.
Song Zhen said, "Where are you going? Come back with me. There was a carriage coming just as I arrived."
Song Shiting: "I can't go back with you for the time being. I have something to take care of."
Song Zhen said, "Your second brother is here, we've been waiting for you to come over."
Song Shiting's eyes darkened: "Are you waiting for me to go back so you can breathe your last?"
Song Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Third brother, when did you become so humorous?"
Song Shiting: "I won't be going back anytime soon, but I'll go back whenever I have time."
Song Zhen: "What are you doing right now?"
Today, Song Shiting was still dressed in casual clothes, so Song Zhen had no idea what he was doing in town.
Song Shiting: "I don't need to report my work to you."
Song Zhen's expression was angry: "Third brother, I know you've always been capable and able to develop your career outside. You have indeed separated from the family, but there's nothing we can do about our parents' illness. As a junior, it's only right that we take care of them."
Song Shiting glanced at me with a cold look in his eyes: "Did they tell you to say that to me?"
Song Zhen froze, his mouth opening wide in a "O" shape before closing tightly.
Song Shiting picked up Ya Ya and walked away.
Song Zhen was indeed just going through the motions. If he couldn't convince Song Shiting today, what would he say when he got back?
Song Zhen shouted from behind, "Third brother, no matter what..."
Song Shiting suddenly turned around: "Don't you know anything about my relationship with them?"
Song Zhen was stunned by his question and couldn't say a word!
Song Shiting had already carried Ya Ya away.
Song Zhen sighed softly.
The reason he came to find Song Shiting this time was indeed because Wang Guihua kept nagging him to persuade Song Shiting to come back.
Wang Guihua was indeed very unreasonable towards Song Shiting in the past.
No wonder he doesn't want to go back.
When Ruan Qingling returned at noon, Song Shiting was nowhere to be seen in the house, but there was a lunchbox and a note left by Song Shiting for her.
He won't be home for lunch; he has something to take care of.
Any news is better than no news.
Even though he was busy with other things, he still prepared meals for her.
This man is amazing!
After finishing her meal, Ruan Qingling went to sleep.
After finishing her afternoon classes, just as she was about to leave, Ruan Qingling went to the restroom.
When she came out of the restroom, she saw two people.
One was Fan Aihua, and she hadn't seen the other woman before, but from her voice, she knew she was the woman from Gouya Alley.
In other words, this woman is Zhao Dongsheng's wife!
Why did you come all the way here to find Fan Aihua?
Ruan Qingling hid herself around the corner...
