All eyes were on Li Xiulan's hand, wondering what she was going to pull out.
Li Xiulan was surprised to find a letter and a gold lock in her pocket...
She emptied everything out of the box and handed it to Chief Zhao. “Chief Zhao, this is all the evidence regarding my son’s identity. I’m handing it all over. It’s safer to keep the evidence with you!”
Her mind went blank. How come the things were still there? Had she remembered wrong?
Looking at the things in Li Xiulan's hands, Li Xiyue's lips curved into a charming smile. Her sweetheart was really quick; she had put the things back in Xiulan's pocket so fast.
The matter was handled perfectly and flawlessly. Li Xiulan must have suspected that she had misremembered, but for Li Xiulan, this was the best outcome!
Chief Zhao took the things Li Xiulan handed him and examined them carefully. These things had absolutely nothing to do with Zhao Jingsong.
He told the officer, "Send these things to the Public Security Bureau. Make sure the Public Security Bureau keeps this evidence safe. This is evidence related to Mu Cangnan's true identity."
The officer immediately obeyed and drove all the evidence to the police station.
It's safer to leave it with the police. The police have registered this evidence, and it's all officially documented. Even if any problems arise later, it can't be denied that this evidence actually existed.
Chief Zhao summoned both Li Xiyue and Li Xiulan to his office and inquired in detail about Li Xiulan's past.
This time, Li Xiulan didn't hide anything and told everyone what happened back then.
She knelt down in front of Mu Cangnan with a thud and cried, "Mom, I'm sorry, I don't deserve to be your mother. Please take me to the police station."
No matter how many years I am imprisoned, I will have no complaints!
"It's my family's fault, it's all my fault. I'd even accept the death penalty!"
Mu Cangnan helped Li Xiulan up and said, "Mom, I've always said I've always considered you my own mother!"
I know that without your protection, my brother and I would have been sold to who-knows-where long ago, and we would never have known our true identities in our lives.
And I remember back then, it was you who insisted on sending my brother and me to school and to join the army.
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to learn knowledge and acquire skills in the army!"
He knew Li Xiulan was weak; what could she do in front of her man?
Even though she was timid, Li Xiulan still did her best to protect the two brothers.
He admitted that Li Xiulan had ulterior motives in the end and did not want to reveal the whole truth.
However, he still forgave Li Xiulan. He understood what Li Xiulan was worried about: she was worried that he and her brother wouldn't forgive her for telling the whole story...
Li Xiulan looked at Mu Cangnan with teary eyes. None of her worries had happened. Mu Cangnan still treated her like a mother.
She wailed and cried, feeling as if her life had been a nightmare. She had married that kind of man and given birth to that kind of daughter, but she had raised such a wonderful son!
Li Xiyue went over to comfort Li Xiulan, "Auntie, don't cry, thankfully things haven't reached the point of no return!"
Chief Zhao said, "Yes, thankfully things haven't reached the point of no return."
Thank goodness you're alright, thank goodness those pieces of evidence are fine. You and Li Xiyue live in the military area, let's see who dares to mess with you now.
I'll personally go to the hospital to see the police interrogating those people. We must find out who's behind this!
Li Xiulan nodded and said, "Thank you, Chief Zhao. Our family will never forget your great kindness!"
Mu Cangnan took Li Xiulan and Li Xiyue to the room that Chief Zhao had arranged for them, and let Li Xiulan rest.
He could tell that Li Xiulan was in a bad mood; she kept crying and talking incessantly about what had just happened. Clearly, Li Xiulan had suffered a great shock and couldn't recover for a while.
Li Xiyue put her hands in her pockets and took out a calming medicine from her spatial storage.
She gave Li Xiulan the calming medicine. The medicine from the space supplies was very effective, and Li Xiulan fell asleep in bed after taking it.
Mu Cangnan quietly took Li Xiyue's hand and whispered in her ear, "Thank you! Thank you for saving my mother and preserving the evidence proving my identity!"
Li Xiyue turned to look at Mu Cangnan. The two were so close, only two inches apart. If she leaned in just a little more, she could kiss Mu Cangnan's lips.
Mu Cangnan's lips are captivating; his upper lip is a beautiful, thin lip, and men with this feature are very sexy and magnetic...
Li Xiyue stared at Mu Cangnan's lips, almost unable to come back to her senses.
Mu Cangnan felt uneasy under the little woman's gaze; her eyes were like those of a leopard eyeing its prey!
He lowered his voice and whispered in Li Xiyue's ear, "What are you looking at? Craving meat?"
Li Xiyue was suddenly brought back to her senses by Mu Cangnan's words.
She nearly choked on her own saliva, coughing violently. "No! Who's craving meat? I'm not!"
Mu Cangnan said, "If you're not craving meat, why are you staring at me? Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat."
Li Xiyue touched her stomach; she was really hungry. She hadn't eaten yet after all this commotion.
Mu Cangnan held Li Xiyue's hand tightly as he led her out of the room, but the moment they stepped outside, he immediately released her hand.
He and Li Xiyue maintained a standard shoulder-width distance.
Li Xiyue rolled her eyes speechlessly. Mu Cangnan was so close to her just now, almost kissing her, but now he's keeping a shoulder's distance from her. What's going on?!
Mi Bao said in the space, "Hehe, even Mu Cangnan has a two-faced day. If Li Xiulan hadn't been there just now, I'm sure he would have already been holding you in his arms!"
If we live in a future era, what does it mean for couples to hold hands?
They can still link arms, and the two of them can even stick together, like conjoined twins!
Li Xiyue said, "I don't believe it. Can this really happen in a military camp?"
Mi Bao said, "You definitely can't do that in the military camp. I'm talking about on the main streets outside. In a few decades, people will be much more open-minded. You won't have to hide your relationship anymore. You can love freely, love boldly, and say it out loud!"
Li Xiyue said, "I really hope we can get to the future soon, so that I can be with Mu Cangnan openly!"
Mi Bao said, "You can be together openly and honestly even after you get married, so try to get married!"
Li Xiyue nodded. That was one way. As long as they got married in this era, they could be together openly!
But before that, we need to prove Mu Cangnan's identity!
She and Mu Cangnan walked into the cafeteria together.
When the cafeteria chef saw Mu Cangnan walk in with a girl, he asked curiously, "Comrade Mu, who is this girl?"
