Looking at the letter on the table, Li Zhao didn't move for a moment and asked Chen Ping, "What... is this?"
Chen Ping sneered in his heart. This was something he had been preparing for several years in order to bring down the Xie family.
As long as he puts it in Mr. Xie's study, he will have a way to make the Xie family suffer a heavy loss even if it doesn't die.
Of course, Chen Ping would not let Li Zhao know this.
After hearing Li Zhao's question, Chen Ping smiled reluctantly, "This is information that can prove the innocence of my Chen family."
"My father is being detained for investigation, and I don't know what's happening to him. I'd like to find out, but my father just brought me back from the countryside, so I don't have any connections."
"There's no other way. I can only borrow your hand and follow the path of Mr. Xie."
Chen Ping smiled bitterly, "Zhaozhao, I really have no other choice now, I can only ask you to help me."
"When my father was well, everyone outside praised me and called me Brother Ping."
"Now that my father is in trouble, those people want to stay as far away from me as possible. This is how human nature is."
Perhaps Chen Ping's pity acted, and Li Zhao finally agreed to what Chen Ping had told her.
That afternoon, Li Zhao went to find Xie Rui.
The two met and talked for a while. Just when Li Zhao was still looking for an excuse to go to the old man, Xie Rui seemed to know what she was thinking and said it first...
"Grandpa must have been exhausted yesterday because of what happened to us. I'm a little worried about him. Let's go back to the old house and visit him, shall we?"
"Ah? Oh, okay." Li Zhao responded absentmindedly.
Xie Rui asked her softly, "What's on your mind? Why do you seem absent-minded?"
Li Zhao tightened the letter in his pocket and shook his head, "No."
"Really?" Xie Rui didn't give up.
Li Zhao laughed: "Alright, I admit that I have something on my mind."
Xie Rui's eyes lit up.
Li Zhao: "Didn't I just hear you say that Grandpa was tired yesterday?
I'm thinking of going to my grandfather's place later. Should I stew some medicinal food for him?
But then I thought about the fact that the old man has his own doctor, so am I being a bit redundant?"
Xie Rui's eyes darkened, and he asked Li Zhao, "Were you thinking about this just now?"
Li Zhao raised his head, "What else?"
Xie Rui fell silent.
.
When we arrived at the old man's place, he was not at home. He had been called away to deal with something.
There was only an aunt in the family who was in charge of the old man's life. The aunt seemed to have something urgent to do and saw Xie Rui and Li Zhao coming back.
She quickly waved to Xie Rui, "Xiao Rui, come here and help me watch the fire on the stove. I have something to go out for. I will be back in about ten minutes."
After saying this, the aunt who was in charge of the old man's life ran away without waiting for Xie Rui to answer.
Xie Rui: “…”
Standing there, watching his aunt's back as she ran away, Xie Rui thought to himself, well, I can see that she is indeed very anxious, but I just don't know what she is anxious about?
You know what, Xie Rui was actually curious for a moment.
Although Xie Rui was born in a large compound, his parents were busy with work and had no time to cook for them, so Xie Rui and his brothers had to eat in the cafeteria since they were young.
But eating in the cafeteria can be quite annoying sometimes, because the food will be gone after a certain time.
So, in order not to go hungry, Xie Rui, who often missed meals due to playing, picked up the spatula.
Although it’s not delicious, it’s enough to fill my stomach.
So for Xie Rui, who had cooked before, there was no problem at all in watching the fire for his aunt.
Good night~
