This happened so suddenly that the atmosphere at home became quite heavy that evening.
Xu Guiying went to Song Rongrong's room again to remind her to go home after get off work and not to go to other places for the time being.
Song Rongrong nodded, "Mom, I understand."
Song Anmin returned to the Xu family with a heavy heart. Xu Songyuan had returned early that evening, and the uncle and nephew had just finished dinner.
Xu Songyuan was feeding the dogs in the yard when he saw Lao San come back. He quickly urged, "You're back late tonight. There's food in the kitchen. Go and eat quickly."
Song Anmin remained silent.
Xu Songyuan noticed Song Anmin's strange expression, stood up, frowned, and asked, "Third brother, what's wrong? Did you have a fight with Wang Ya?"
Song Anmin: "Uncle, why are you bringing up Wang Ya out of the blue?"
Song Jianmin came out of the house and said, "Hey, Third Brother, you're about to take the college entrance exam, and you're still wandering around. Are you even going to take the exam?"
Song Jianmin finally got a chance to tease his third brother.
Song Anmin: "Get lost, I'm not in the mood to mess around with you guys tonight."
Song Anmin glanced at the two people in front of him and told them about Song Rongrong.
Now it was Xu Songyuan and Song Jianmin's turn to be dumbfounded.
Xu Songyuan cursed something unintelligible and went to the Song family's house, with Song Jianmin following closely behind.
Thinking too much was pointless, so Song Jianmin went back inside and prepared to continue reading.
It was past nine o'clock at night when Xu Songyuan and Lao Wu returned. As soon as Lao Wu got back, he started chattering non-stop.
"Damn, Third Brother, why do we keep running into these kinds of things? Is it because we live close to the police station?"
Song Anmin smirked, "Who knows?"
Song Jianmin rolled over and sprang up from the bed with a jolt. "Then I have to keep an eye on Chen Zhou. Or should I sleep at Chen Zhou's place tonight? What if someone is watching her tonight?"
Song Anmin was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, he finally managed to find the words to curse Lao Wu.
“Song Jianmin, you know your own intentions, don’t tell me.”
Song Jianmin was genuinely worried. "I'll go check it out and come back."
Song Jianmin sauntered out the door in his slippers. It was already 9:30, and Chen Zhou was almost asleep. She had just finished washing up when she heard a knock on the door. It must be Song Jianmin looking for her.
Chen Zhou asked from behind the door, "Who is it?"
Song Jianmin: "Me!"
Chen Zhou: "What brings you here?"
"Open the door, I need to tell you something."
Chen Zhou said "Oh," pulled back the wooden strip, and the door was pushed open from the outside.
"What's wrong?"
Song Jianmin: "Let me check your windows. Be careful when you go out these next few days..."
Song Jianmin cut to the chase. Seeing that Chen Zhou was stunned and didn't react, he exaggerated and said that the murderer was fierce and strong. Chen Zhou swallowed and then said, "Our area is quite safe, isn't it?"
Song Jianmin pursed his lips. "You don't know, a thief broke into our house before."
Chen Zhou: "I know about this; you told me about it."
At that time, Chen Zhou had not yet moved in, and the thief was hired by Jiang Hong.
Later, when another incident happened at home, it was Yu Fang who barged in.
After inspecting the doors and windows of Chen Zhou's house, Song Jianmin patted her on the head and said, "Why don't you tidy up your little room? I'll sneak over to sleep there tonight, and I'll be able to hear any noise."
Chen Zhou blushed. "Song Jianmin, you're dreaming. You think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Song Jianmin coughed lightly, "Is it really necessary to say one or two of these things?"
Chen Zhou: "You should go back now, I'm going to sleep."
Song Jianmin: "Yeah, it's still 7:40 tomorrow."
"knew."
After Song Jianmin left, Chen Zhou locked the door and went to sleep.

At the same time, Liu Aimei and Xu Ping also had a minor argument.
After Liu Aimei had an argument at the Liu family's house last time, she refused to go back.
Xu Ping subtly probed Liu Qiangdao's intentions at the factory, but Liu Qiangdao couldn't give a clear answer. So Xu Ping found an opportunity to ask Liu Aimei.
Xu Ping seemed to have become very busy during this period, only picking up Liu Aimei from get off work every two or three days.
After they had dinner out that evening, Xu Ping escorted Liu Aimei downstairs.
They've been together for so long, they've only held hands, never even kissed. Xu Ping feels it's too slow, and he wants to go up tonight.
Liu Aimei said it wasn't very convenient.
She was menstruating.
Xu Ping said he wasn't going to do anything, "I just wanted to see where you live."
Liu Aimei: "Let's do it next time, it's really not convenient today."
Xu Ping's expression changed slightly. "Aimei, do you not intend to continue this relationship with me?"
Liu Aimei's expression froze. "No, don't worry. It's just that I'm a bit conservative. I... want to wait until we're married..."
Xu Ping's face showed a sad expression.
Do you dislike me?
Liu Aimei: "How could I possibly look down on you? You're not sick or anything. In fact, I'd like to say thank you for not looking down on me."
"Since that's the case..."
"I'm sorry," Liu Aimei said quickly and casually, as if it were just a perfunctory apology.
Xu Ping was angry inside, but he didn't show it on his face. "Then I'll be leaving."
Liu Aimei waved: "Goodbye."
For the first time, Xu Ping left without waiting for Liu Aimei to come upstairs.
As Liu Aimei watched his retreating figure, she felt that something was off.
She quickly went back upstairs, opened the living room window, and could still see Xu Ping's back as she looked down.
Liu Aimei lived near the city center. The area was relatively safe, and the streetlights were bright. She saw Xu Ping walk past the next intersection, where a man in a suit met him...
