Thinking of this, she immediately hung up the phone, but then she thought it best to let Qi Si know, so she dialed it again.
She had barely uttered a warning when the policewoman returned carrying the child, her face full of impatience. "Did you find him?"
"No, that person isn't here." Ye Qiu had already put down the phone, her heart pounding. It turns out that people really shouldn't do bad things. Her legs felt a little weak.
"Then can you find the person?" The policewoman was about to give up.
"Yes!" Ye Qiu called Su Ju this time.
After hearing what she said, Su Ju ran over without saying a word.
She's been to the police station more than once; she knows the procedures.
Now that they're preparing for the wedding, Xu Jingye gave her a sum of money to buy whatever she wanted. She's used to being frugal and rarely spends money. Now she'll use it to save Ye Qiu. Luckily, she's never trusted banks and always keeps her money hidden at home; otherwise, where would she get this huge sum of money at night?
And so, she redeemed Ye Qiu and brought him home.
"I heard about Qi Si's accident when I got to the shop this morning. Since you weren't here, I didn't want to cause you any trouble." Su Ju said, about to leave. "I'm going back now. I'm worried about Ye Qiu being home alone. I just wanted to let you know that Xu Jingye is sleeping at the shop tonight."
"Sister Su, you're such a good person." Qin Xiaoyu understood that she hadn't saved the wrong person. Her decision back then was the right one.
"You and Ye Qiu have helped me in so many ways, I can't really help you much in this, it's just a small favor."
"Tell Qiu-jie to take good care of herself and not get too stressed. I'll bring her some milk powder later. Wait a minute, I'll bring you two cans." Qin Xiaoyu ran upstairs, grabbed two cans of Xiao Jiajia's imported milk powder, wrapped them up, and gave them to Su Ju to take.
I don't know what happened to Qi Si, but K has a lot of murders on his hands, so I'm afraid he has no chance of coming back alive.
Ye Qiu has had a tough life. After years of wandering and hardship, she had just settled down when her home was gone, leaving behind such a young child. It's going to be tough for her.
Qin Xiaoyu guessed that although Ye Qiu was released on bail, he was probably still under house arrest because K-ye's remnants were still there and they were slowly closing in.
It's inconvenient for her to visit them in person, so she'd better distance herself from Master K and Qi Si as much as possible.
Around 10 p.m., A Lei called to say that he and Xiao Si's wife had returned to their hometown.
"Has your sister-in-law found out any news?" Qin Xiaoyu asked anxiously.
"There's some news, but it's not easy to handle," A Lei said after a moment's hesitation. "It might be a murder."
Upon hearing about the murder case, Qin Xiaoyu's heart sank. If it was a murder case, it would most likely result in the death penalty.
Even if it's a suspended death sentence, it's likely that he'll be inside for ten or twenty years before he gets out.
It seems his fate is beyond redemption.
"Don't be afraid, we'll take it one step at a time and figure out a way. Say something..." A Lei panicked when he heard that Qin Xiaoyu wasn't responding.
"I'm fine, I just spaced out for a moment. Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. Take care of yourself too." Qin Xiaoyu quickly put down the phone when she saw Zhou Xing's mother coming over.
What she fears most is someone asking her how things are going.
Seeing her busy running around, Zhou Xing's mother kept stealing glances at her expression, but dared not ask, afraid of disturbing her.
Qin Xiaoyu had no good news to share and dared not hint at it, so she could only keep it to herself.
Now that she's in a predicament, and it's unbearable to just wait at home, she went to the store.
The designers were all busy, with more and more design drafts appearing. Qin Xiaoyu held a meeting with them.
"I've had a family emergency, as you all know. We've been through so much together, you all know. Now we can only get through this together. I probably won't be in the mood to manage the shop anymore, you'll have to figure it out yourselves."
“Xiaoyu, you just go ahead and do your work. We know what we’re doing with Fashion Week. Once the designs are finalized, we’ll make the prototypes. These are all standard procedures, so you don’t need to worry about them,” Master Liang said immediately.
"I spoke with Director Qi on the phone. The visit to the factory will take place in the next few days. You don't need to worry about it; I've arranged everything," Director Fei reported.
Qin Xiaoyu was extremely gratified. The group had reached this point and had taken initiative, so she could really let go.
Kong Fenglin and his companion also arrived. They stayed at Qi Si's shop, but after being checked out, Qin Xiaoyu arranged for them to stay elsewhere.
"Director Qin, you have family matters to attend to, so we won't cause you any trouble. Let's go back first." Kong Fenglin was a reasonable person, and he sighed with his head down.
"You go back first. I'll consider your products. If possible, I'll definitely cooperate with you. Don't worry," Qin Xiaoyu reassured them before handing them over to Bald Qiang.
News from their hometown gradually spread, proving that A Lei's trip hadn't been in vain. He quickly unsealed the properties under the names of Xiao Si's wife and her mother, meaning that after all this turmoil, Qi Si's foundation in his hometown was preserved.
That evening, Xiao Si's wife called to tell Qin Xiaoyu the outcome of the matter.
"The hotel and wedding planning company are both saved. Thanks to A Lei, I really don't know what I would have done without him. Those people are so fierce." You could tell from her voice that Sister-in-law Si was crying again.
"That's good. You can prepare to return now. I'm also trying to find someone to pull some strings and see if I can get in to see my brother."
"I can see him? That's wonderful! I'll head back tomorrow!" Upon hearing that she could see Qi Si, Xiao Si's wife forgot all about her troubles.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. These plane tickets aren't available every day. Let A-Lei arrange it. Just listen to me."
“Little Fish, I suddenly envy those people so much. Now, let your brother come out and live a normal life with me. He can drive a tricycle, and I can grow some vegetables to supplement our income. I don’t want money or jewelry, I just want him! I’d rather live a hard life, it’s enough to have him. What is money? Is having someone more important?” Little Fourth Sister-in-law said, crying as she spoke.
Is this still the same vain and materialistic young girl? She must have forgotten that when she forced Qi Si to marry her by using her unborn child, she was after his family fortune.
When she had everything, she wanted nothing but that person.
“Sister-in-law, don’t be sad. I will try my best to get my brother out. He did some stupid things when he was young, so he may have gotten into some trouble, but those were a long time ago, and it was a joint crime, so many of the injuries are hard to define. Since I met him, he hasn’t used a knife again, so there shouldn’t be any problems.”
"But they say he has a murder case against him. Could he have done it behind our backs?"
“He cares so much about you and the child, why would he take such a risk? I don’t believe it.”
Qin Xiaoyu's words lacked confidence. He hadn't told her about his secret meeting with Master K last time, so there might be some other secrets involved.
She rubbed her temples; her head ached.
Manager Chen called and said we could go visit Qi Si, who is currently in detention.
These past few days, Qin Xiaoyu has been having Manager Chen inquire about the situation. Now that she can meet with people, it must be Qin Xiaoyu who is doing it.
This was a place she never wanted to return to; it still haunted her. The thought of that horrific night sent chills down her spine.
Qi Si was in the male ward, which was far more terrifying than the female ward. I can't even imagine what he went through.
