Chapter 64 A glimpse of the truth
Tang Xueli never imagined that Tang Jinhong and Zhao Hongye were having an affair.
They hid it so well that she hadn't noticed it at all.
I wonder if anyone else in the compound discovered their affair.
Does this matter have anything to do with Lin Tiecheng?
Tang Xueli went directly to Lin Tiecheng's room and asked him, "How is your relationship with Zhao Hongye?"
Lin Tiecheng raised his eyelids vigilantly, "Why are you asking this?"
Tang Xueli looked at him and said, "Just asking."
"She and I are okay, just ordinary neighbors." Lin Tiecheng replied ambiguously.
"Have you two ever had a fight?" Tang Xueli had heard this several times. She asked this question just to hear how Lin Tiecheng would answer.
"I didn't really have an argument with her, that's just the way I talk."
Lin Tiecheng coughed twice and asked, "It's been so many days, how is your investigation going?"
Tang Xueli pondered for a moment and had a guess in her mind.
"You like Zhao Hongye. Does she know?"
"Who said I like Zhao Hongye!" Lin Tiecheng's face turned visibly red.
Tang Xueli chuckled and turned away.
"Hey." Lin Tiecheng called her and couldn't help asking, "How...how did you know?"
Tang Xueli said: "I guessed."
"Others don't know, right?" Lin Tiecheng felt a little embarrassed.
He feels very embarrassed that the person he likes doesn't like him.
"I don't know." Tang Xueli turned back, "Do you have anything else to tell me?"
"Um..." Lin Tiecheng hesitated, "Do you really think someone wants to take revenge on me?"
"Probably." Tang Xueli didn't say anything definite.
Lin Tiecheng sighed, "I ran into your uncle in Zhao Hongye's room."
Tang Xueli: "Yeah."
"Aren't you surprised?" Lin Tiecheng thought she was too calm. "Your uncle kissed Zhao Hongye."
"Did they threaten you?" Tang Xueli didn't want to hear those messy details.
Lin Tiecheng nodded. "Your uncle warned me not to talk too much, otherwise I would lose my job. Zhao Hongye also came to me alone. She wanted me to move out of the compound and live in the factory dormitory."
The truth is about to come out.
Tang Xueli looked at him straight in the eyes. "We can catch him in the act in a few days. Is it still necessary?"
Lin Tiecheng suddenly realized, "Was it Tang Jinhong who did it?"
Tang Xueli shook her head slightly.
Lin Tiecheng thought for a moment and asked, "Is that Zhao Hongye?"
Tang Xueli said: "I think Zhao Hongye is more likely."
"Forget it then." Lin Tiecheng scratched his hair irritably, "No need to catch anyone in the act."
He still cares about Zhao Hongye very much.
I don't want to see her embarrass herself in front of me.
"Okay." Tang Xueli said calmly, "Then when are you going to apologize to Grandma Cao and Da Huang?"
Lin Tiecheng: "...Is this not necessary?"
"Want to go back on your word?" Tang Xueli took two steps towards him. "Are you not going to keep your word?"
"I can just tell Grandma Cao. Why should I apologize to a dog? What can a dog understand?"
Lin Tiecheng tried to fool him, "Thank you for this, you've worked hard, I'll buy you something delicious later."
"No need." Tang Xueli stared at him fiercely, "Dogs can't understand human language, but they can understand your sincerity. You must do what you promised."
"Tang Xueli, don't be so aggressive!" Lin Tiecheng straightened his back to show how strong he was. "I gave you face, didn't I?"
The smell of smoke in the room was not as strong as I had imagined, but instead it smelled very strong of shoe polish.
Tang Xueli sat down at the table and played with Lin Tiecheng's cigarette box.
She narrowed her eyes and sneered, "Don't I know enough secrets about you?"
"If you dare to tell anyone, I'll beat you to death!" Lin Tiecheng was furious.
"What are you going to use to beat me to death?" Tang Xueli glanced at him, "Use an iron?"
In her previous life, Grandma Cao died after being hit on the head by an iron. Because there were no witnesses at the scene, nothing was found out in the end and it was simply said to be an accident.
Tang Xueli was having a terrible time at the time and couldn't even take care of herself, so there was no way she could conduct any in-depth investigation.
Grandma Cao’s unclear death has always been a great regret for her.
She was sad, regretful and upset about this and couldn't let it go for a long time.
It was not until today that she vaguely saw a glimpse of the truth.
A few days ago in Grandma Cao’s room, the moment Lin Tiecheng picked up the iron, she guessed something.
What happened back then is simple to explain and can be explained in just three or five sentences.
Zhao Hongye was caught eating secretly, and she retaliated against Lin Tiecheng by throwing dung balls at him and tried to drive him away.
Lin Tiecheng thought that there was dog shit in front of the door, and took his anger out on Grandma Cao and Dahuang, which led to a long-term conflict.
During a dispute, the hot-tempered Lin Tiecheng raised the iron and hit Grandma Cao, causing the accident.
It led to a tragedy.
The man in front of me is an executioner, but he has never been punished.
Tang Xueli clenched her fists, the hatred in her eyes growing deeper and deeper.
Lin Tiecheng felt a chill around her and was inexplicably afraid.
Ridiculous, why would he be afraid of a yellow-haired girl?
"Why? Do you like being hit by an iron?" Lin Tiecheng snatched the cigarette box from her hand. "If you like, I can help you! But unfortunately, I don't have an iron in my room. I remember there is one in Grandma Cao's room."
"Are you really not going to apologize?" Tang Xueli asked for the last time.
"Apologize to your mother!" Lin Tiecheng cursed.
Tang Xueli got up and left, and coincidentally ran into Zhao Hongye on her way out.
"Huh? What were you doing in his room?" Zhao Hongye looked into Lin Tiecheng's room from time to time with a gossipy look on her face.
Tang Xueli said: "Visiting."
"Why don't you go to that powder keg's house?" Zhao Hongye said enthusiastically, "If you want to play, go to my sister-in-law's room!"
"It's not very good..." Tang Xueli said vaguely.
Zhao Hongye smiled and said, "What's wrong with that?"
"What if we run into someone..." Tang Xueli hesitated to speak.
Zhao Hongye laughed, "Who could we run into?"
"Won't my uncle be there..." Tang Xueli looked at Zhao Hongye meaningfully.
Zhao Hongye panicked all of a sudden. She paused for half a minute before she said, "I'm hospitable. People in our courtyard like to come and sit with me."
"Oh, sure. I'll go sit down with you some other day." Tang Xueli walked away, looking back every few steps.
Zhao Hongye's back was covered with sweat, and she glared towards Lin Tiecheng's house.
This bastard must have been a big mouth and told Tang Xueli about her and Tang Jinhong.
We need to hurry and kick this guy out as soon as possible. He will be a nuisance if he stays in the slum.
Zhao Hongye left a note for Tang Jinhong under an inconspicuous brick:
Lin is a big mouth, deal with it as soon as possible.
After reading the note, Tang Jinhong burned it and thought of a solution overnight.
