Chapter 28
Mu Qianqian had been humble and submissive in the Shi family for several days, holding back her temper and flattering Shi's mother and father. She finally won the favor of the two elders and was allowed to leave.
She had a bamboo basket slung across her arm, which contained celery and eggs she had just bought from the market.
Seeing that it was still early, she was unwilling to go back just like that, and couldn't help but go around to the military compound.
When she was hesitating about how to win back Mrs. Huo's favor, several figures as straight as pine and cypress came into her sight.
It’s the police comrade!
Mu Qianqian was surprised to find that the direction those police comrades were heading was actually the Huo family!
Could it be that something happened to the Huo family or Mu Qingxuan?
Mu Qianqian's eyes lit up, she was overjoyed and hurriedly followed.
At this time, at the gate of Lin's house, the police comrades did not find anyone at Huo's house. After asking Aunt Wang, they learned that the target person had come to Lin's house.
The leading policeman looked to be around 40 years old, with slightly graying temples. His eyes were solemn and powerful as he swept coldly over the crowd.
"Who is Mu Qingxuan?"
The moment he finished speaking, he had already locked his sights on the young woman next to Mrs. Huo.
Her face was like carefully carved mutton-fat jade, delicate and smooth.
Her eyebrows are like distant ink, her eyes seem to contain a clear spring, and her eyes are full of agility and gentleness as they move.
Even though the police comrades have dealt with countless people, they have never seen such a beautiful lesbian.
It is even more eye-catching than the mainstays of the art troupe and the big stars on TV.
The middle-aged policeman coughed lightly and confirmed again: "Lesbian, you are Comrade Mu Qingxuan, right?"
Mu Qingxuan was surprised.
Although she didn't know why the comrades from the Public Security Bureau came to her house, she believed that she had done everything with a clear conscience since her rebirth and had not committed any illegal or criminal acts.
Therefore, she did not feel panic at all and met the middle-aged policeman's gaze very calmly.
Mu Qingxuan was about to nod in response when another voice suddenly interrupted.
"Comrade police officer, yes, she is Mu Qingxuan." Mu Qianqian approached with small steps, her eyes full of expectation, "What do you want to see her for?"
The middle-aged policeman narrowed his eyes and said, "Some time ago, our Public Security Bureau received a report from Chief Huo, and learned that the comrades of the Huo family were almost murdered by nitrite. After this period of investigation, the case finally has some clues."
Mu Qianqian became excited when she heard this.
She remembered that when she bought nitrite, she clearly used the name "Mu Qingxuan" in order to prevent the truth from being exposed one day and bringing trouble to herself.
Therefore, she made preparations early and diverted the blame to Mu Qingxuan.
Now, has the police finally figured this out? !
She couldn't help but recall the humiliation of being taken to the Public Security Bureau that day. Her head started to burn, and she asked anxiously as if she had completely lost the ability to think: "You came to find Mu Qingxuan, does that mean she is the mastermind behind this?"
"Grandma Huo, I told you, I was wronged. How could I do anything to harm you!"
Mu Qianqian was anxious to prove her innocence in front of Mrs. Huo, and said without thinking: "Although I am not as capable or pretty as my sister, I have never done anything bad when I look into my heart."
"Just because I'm not as pretty as my sister, does that mean everyone only listens to my sister and not me?"
Mu Qianqian choked up and crystal tears fell from her eyes. She looked at me with such pity that I couldn't help but be moved.
The sun sets in the west, and the scorching sun finally moves away a little. It is the time when people in the compound get off work and go out for a walk.
The sudden appearance of the police comrade was eye-catching enough.
In addition, Mu Qianqian's constant noise attracted countless people to stop and watch.
People spontaneously gathered in groups of three or four, looking at Mu Qingxuan with suspicious eyes, whispering and discussing what had happened.
"From what the girl said, could it be that the new daughter-in-law of the Huo family committed a crime and put the blame on her sister?"
"Oh my God, how can there be a sister like this in the world? It's really outrageous."
"Fortunately, the police officers were able to catch the culprit. The Huo family is easy to get along with, so why did they marry such a daughter-in-law..."
"She looked pretty and charming, but I didn't expect her to be so vicious. You can't judge a person by his appearance."
There was endless discussion in her ears. Mu Qianqian felt very happy listening to them cursing Mu Qingxuan.
She looked at Mrs. Huo again and cried, "Grandma, I really treat you as my own grandma. How could I do something to hurt you?"
"you--"
Old Mrs. Huo had a complicated expression. She stared at Mu Qianqian's tear-stained face, somewhat hesitant.
She thought that the previous incident had been settled, but she never expected that Mu Qingxuan would be visited by the police again.
Could it be that their previous judgment was really wrong?
Is Mu Qingxuan really the culprit?
Old Mrs. Huo's attitude wavered again.
Mu Qingxuan's eyes were a little cold, and her gaze fell directly on Mu Qianqian's knees.
With her medical skills, she could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with Mu Qianqian's knee.
The way he walked and stood was obviously caused by kneeling for too long.
Mu Qingxuan knew with just a little thought that Mu Qianqian was being punished by Stone Mother to kneel down.
But I didn’t expect that even after Mu Qianqian became like this, she still hadn’t given up on the idea of causing trouble.
There was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, and a look of panic appeared on her face: "Qianqian, what are you talking about? It was you who almost killed the Huo family with nitrite, wasn't it you?"
Mu Qianqian raised her head proudly: "That's all your one-sided words. It's your slander against me! If you are really innocent, why did the police come to find you now?"
"Qianqian you--" Mu Qingxuan's eyes turned red with anxiety, and she pouted, feeling very aggrieved.
She couldn't help but look at Mrs. Huo: "Grandma, don't you believe me either?"
Old Mrs. Huo opened her mouth hesitantly, but the words "I believe you" were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them no matter what.
Mu Qingxuan waited for a long time, but there was no response from Mrs. Huo. Her eyes dimmed instantly and she lowered her head in disappointment.
"I didn't expect that this woman would actually do such a heartless thing. I really learned a lot today."
"I feel sorry for that female comrade who was crying so miserably. I don't know how much bullying she has suffered."
The discussions of the crowd came at Mu Qingxuan like snowflakes.
She pursed her lips, the braids hanging on her shoulders seemed to have lost their life, her furry head drooped, full of regret.
"Sister, no one will believe you, you'd better turn yourself in as soon as possible." Mu Qianqian was very proud.
"Who said no?" A melodious male voice suddenly came from behind the crowd, instantly attracting everyone's attention, "I believe it."
Mu Qingxuan looked up suddenly.
The tall Huo Changfeng pushed aside the crowd and walked slowly towards her against the orange sunset.
