Although Lao Jiang was a little worried, he didn't take it to heart.
The Sanhe Town Police Station consisted of a few shabby rooms with nothing of value. Even the police, including the station chief, Old Huang, only had six officers.
The only suspect brought into the police station yesterday was Wu Jinfeng, an old woman, who was locked up in a dark room. Old Jiang didn't think Wu Jinfeng had the ability or the courage to escape.
Otherwise, Lao Jiang wouldn't have run after him. Although he is no longer a soldier in the army, Lao Jiang has never been a reckless person.
Lao Jiang took a deep breath and stopped thinking about the shadow. Even if he caught up with the shadow, he would not be a match for it.
On the other side, Wen Ziqing ran quickly holding Zhou Yuanyuan and her brother, and soon arrived at the door of Zhao Guohui's house.
Wen Ziqing walked in familiarly and found an empty guest room before putting down the two children in his arms.
Zhou Jiasheng came back to his senses from the speed that was like "riding on clouds and mist", and looked at Wen Ziqing with starry eyes, with the word "admiration" almost engraved on his face.
Zhou Yuanyuan lowered her head and pretended to be good. She really didn’t know how to explain to Wen Ziqing!
Wen Ziqing felt a chill run down his spine, staring at Zhou Yuanyuan without blinking. He felt that the little girl owed him an explanation for what happened tonight.
Zhou Yuanyuan, under two blazing gazes, looked guilty. She didn't know how to explain to Wen Ziqing: Should she pretend to be a ghost to scare Wu Jinfeng out of anger for her mother? Should she explain that she wasn't really a child, but rather a young girl on the outside, but a ghost in her sixties?
Even if she was willing to tell him, Wen Ziqing would have to believe her. Zhou Yuanyuan had decided early on to keep the matter of her rebirth to herself and not tell anyone.
Zhou Yuanyuan decided to pretend that she knew nothing. She was still a child and didn't understand the meaning of Wen Ziqing's eyes. She just didn't understand!
"Sister, should we go back to sleep next door or sleep here with Brother Ziqing?" Zhou Jiasheng didn't understand the undercurrents between Wen Ziqing and his sister, and asked with a confused look on his face.
After working most of the night, Zhou Jiasheng's little body had already sounded the alarm. After all, he was a child under eight years old, and Zhou Jiasheng really wanted to sleep.
"You're not allowed to go next door," Wen Ziqing said. He really didn't believe he couldn't persuade a six-year-old girl. Before this little girl, like a sapling, grew crooked, he had to straighten her out.
Wen Ziqing knew that Zhou Yuanyuan was very reluctant to sleep in the same room with him. He had observed this during their last stay in Zhoujia Village. Don't call him mean or shameless. For a girl as stubborn as Zhou Yuanyuan, you should seize her weakness and conquer her in one fell swoop.
"Brother, go to bed." Zhou Yuanyuan took Zhou Jiasheng's little hand and climbed onto the bed in a huff.
Zhao Guohui was a hospitable man, and his two guest rooms had two sets of bedding on the beds, ready for guests to stay overnight. Xu Liqin was also a diligent housewife, and the bedding in the guest rooms was clean and fluffy after being exposed to the sun.
Zhou Yuanyuan took off her cotton-padded jacket and trousers and crawled into bed. After all, Wen Ziqing had already seen her last time she slept, so another time wouldn't be a big deal. Besides, she looked like a little girl now, and there was nothing interesting about her. Wouldn't it be asking for trouble if she kept worrying about it?
Zhou Jiasheng followed his sister's example and took off his cotton coat and trousers, and was about to get into his sister's bed.
"Ahem, Jiasheng, let's just use one quilt." Wen Ziqing lifted the other quilt and covered Zhou Jiasheng with it.
If Zhou Yuanyuan wanted to "peek" at this time, she would definitely "see" that the tips of Wen Ziqing's ears were red.
Wen Ziqing didn't expect the little girl to be so magnanimous today. She actually climbed into bed and went to sleep in front of him. He wanted to keep the little girl awake to answer questions, but seeing Zhou Yuanyuan yawning non-stop, Wen Ziqing couldn't bear it.
Seeing Zhou Jiasheng willingly crawling into Zhou Yuanyuan's bed without a trace of shyness, Wen Ziqing became cautious. Sharing the same bed with his future wife right under his nose? That was absolutely out of the question. Not even if he was her brother-in-law! Not even if he was her biological father!
In order to make his actions seem less abrupt, Wen Ziqing gave up his plan to meditate and followed Zhou Jiasheng into bed, ready to lie in bed all night.
After learning that Wen Yiran had gone to Kyoto yesterday afternoon, Wen Ziqing didn't stop for a moment and climbed directly onto the bus back to Yuyuan County with a schoolbag on his back.
It was already past eight in the evening when they arrived in Yuyuan County. The last bus from Yuyuan County to Sanhe Town was at six in the afternoon. Wen Ziqing was eager to return home, so he gritted his teeth and set off on his journey.
When in Zhaojiagou, Wen Ziqing used the excuse of training his legs every day to run from Zhaojiagou to Zhoujia Village early in the morning in order to visit Zhou Yuanyuan.
Zhaojiagou is about 60 to 70 miles from Zhoujia Village, and even running all the way there would take Wen Ziqing over an hour. Yuyuan County is over 100 kilometers from Sanhe Town, and by the time Wen Ziqing reached Zhao Guohui's doorstep, it had taken him over three hours.
After all, Wen Ziqing's body is not the one that had been well-trained in the army in his previous life. In addition, his body is still developing. After running more than 100 kilometers and forcing himself to follow behind Zhou Yuanyuan and her brother and sister to help them wipe their butts, Wen Ziqing was actually very tired.
Wen Ziqing, who thought he would stay awake all night, listened to the light and long breathing of Zhou Yuanyuan and her sister, and smelled the faint sweet and sticky milky fragrance at the tip of his nose, and gradually fell asleep.
Wen Ziqing had a dreamless night. When he opened his eyes the next day, he saw a pair of big eyes that were wide open.
Zhou Zhixin felt a pang of discontent. Where did this young man who showed up in the middle of the night come from? How could he be more popular with the other two children than he was? Jiasheng had said that he slept with Brother Ziqing last night.
Oh no! My daughter, Yuanyuan, is a girl! Sleeping with this boy? Isn't that taking advantage of him? Zhou Zhixin realized it later.
There is murderous intent!
Wen Ziqing turned his body to the side and rolled to the inside of the bed. After escaping from Zhou Zhixin's sight that was like a flying knife, he stood up straight.
Who was this person? He was fine one minute, and then he looked at me with murderous intent the next. Wen Ziqing stared at Zhou Zhixin warily, afraid that he would attack her at any moment.
Good! Zhou Zhixin looked at Wen Ziqing's skillful movements and secretly praised him.
One big and one small, one standing on the ground and the other on the bed, they looked at each other in such a strange way.
Wen Ziqing didn't know Zhou Zhixin, and was not surprised that Zhou Zhixin, who had been away from home for many years, would come home. He thought Zhou Zhixin was Zhao Guohui's friend or guest.
Wen Ziqing felt very uncomfortable when he thought about how this strange "guest" had seen his sleeping face when he was not paying attention.
