Chapter 100: Son-in-law meets mother-in-law】

When Huo Qingchi saw Ye Qingyue, she was the only one in his eyes.

Even though she was wearing black cloth clothes that had no "beauty" at all, her hands were covered in blood, and her face had a smile like a little devil -

in Huo Qingchi's eyes, Ye Qingyue was still Ye Qingyue.

Comrade Ye who obsessed him and made him worry all the time.

Huo Qingchi once heard a saying.

The most charming time for a woman is when she is working seriously.

Looking at Ye Qingyue who was seriously saving people, Huo Qingchi felt that this woman's whole body, even a strand of hair, was emitting fatal charm.

"Okay."

Ye Qingyue bandaged Zheng Xia's wound, stood up and said to Lu Ai Dang and others: "Carry the man away and go to the hospital."

Then, Zheng Xia and Ren Hongjun were taken away.

Huo Qingchi was also asked to go together, as they had something to ask him.

After all, Huo Qingchi's appearance was too suspicious in such a sensitive occasion.

Although the Lu Ai Dang knew him, if they did not follow the formal procedures to eliminate suspicion and instead released him directly, it would bring trouble to Huo Qingchi.

Huo Qingchi also cooperated very well.

However, before leaving, he took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Ye Qingyue: "Comrade Ye, here you go."

Ye Qingyue was startled and took the handkerchief subconsciously, only to remember that her hands were still covered in blood.

This man, who was obviously unable to take care of himself, still cared about the blood on her hands?

"I will help you prove your innocence." Ye Qingyue whispered to him.

Huo Qingchi looked at her with a gentle gaze, and without saying anything, he left with the Lu Ai Dang and others.

Ye Qingyue went to the hospital. She had to remove bullets from Ren Hongjun and Zheng Xia. She guessed that she would be busy until late, so she sent someone home to report to Ye Xianghong, who was still waiting for her, that the operation was over and she was fine, but she had some work to do.

Ye Qingyue didn't finish the operation until early morning.

Ren Hongjun's operation was simple, but Zheng Xia's shot was in the abdomen.

Ye Qingyue took some effort to stabilize Zheng Xia's vital signs and ensure that he was fine. He could even be questioned after waking up from a sleep.

After not sleeping all night, Ye Qingyue was still a little dazed when she came out of the hospital.

"Ding bell."

Suddenly, the sound of a bicycle bell attracted Ye Qingyue's attention.

Looking at the source of the sound, a familiar handsome face came into her sight.

"Comrade Huo!"

Ye Qingyue stepped forward quickly, "Are you okay?"

Huo Qingchi saw her smile, nodded and said, "I handed over the evidence of Yu Kang's collusion with the traffickers, saying that I was there because I wanted to investigate the case, and you and Uncle Lu testified for me, so I was released on the spot."

He said, handing Ye Qingyue the steamed buns and soy milk hanging on the handlebars, "You haven't eaten yet? I bought you breakfast. After you finish, I will take you home."

"Thank you."

Ye Qingyue was not polite either. She was busy all night and was almost starving.

She squatted on the street with her things in her hands, her back to Huo Qingchi, and the steamed buns disappeared one by one.

Huo Qingchi was surprised. He asked, "Comrade Ye, why... are you facing away from me?"

"Hmm?"

Ye Qingyue paused, swallowed the steamed bun in her mouth, raised her head and thought for a few minutes before slowly saying, "I don't like eating in front of people other than my family."

Huo Qingchi was startled, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Ye Qingyue shook her head and continued to finish the steamed bun and soy milk.

After they finished eating, Huo Qingchi rode her back to Xiangyang Village.

"I also forgot the reason."

Halfway through the journey, Ye Qingyue suddenly spoke.

Huo Qingchi was stunned for two seconds before he responded: "Why don't you like eating in front of outsiders?"

"Yeah."

Ye Qingyue said: "I don't know when it started. If there are outsiders watching me eat, I will break out in cold sweats, my whole body will become stiff, I can't even pick up the food, I chew everything, but I can't swallow it."

After a pause, she laughed at herself: "It's very strange, right?"

Everyone who saw her like that laughed at her.

After one or two times, Ye Qingyue got used to eating away from outsiders.

"It's a bit strange."

As expected, Huo Qingchi also thought that she was abnormal.

Ye Qingyue was not surprised that he said that, but she was a little depressed.

"But, so what?"

The next second, Huo Qingchi's words made Ye Qingyue look up at him.

Because she was sitting in the back seat, all Ye Qingyue could see was the man's broad back.

"Everyone has their own uniqueness, right?"

Huo Qingchi said in a calm voice, as if what Ye Qingyue had just talked to him about was not some embarrassing topic, but something as ordinary as "What did you eat this morning?"

"Like me, Comrade Ye, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I say this, I'm afraid of thunder."

Huo Qingchi said, "When I was a kid, I loved to play and ended up being trapped in the mountains by the rain. I watched helplessly as a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck a large tree less than ten meters away from me, charring it and catching fire. My eyes also became blurred because I stared directly at the lightning at close range, and it took a long time for them to return to normal."

"Since then, I've become afraid of thunder."

Huo Qingchi shrugged, "It's embarrassing for a grown man to be afraid of thunder, right? So I didn't dare tell anyone. Every time there was thunder, I would either try to hide and tremble alone, or if I couldn't be alone, I would pretend to be in front of others."

"Every time I tried to hold on, I would fall ill. I guess it was because I was too nervous at the time."

Huo Qingchi smiled and said, "So, Comrade Ye, whether you can't eat in front of outsiders or I'm afraid of thunder, although we are a little strange compared to many people, it's okay. Maybe those so-called normal people are also strange compared to us in other places?"

"Your way of comforting people is really... strange."

Although Ye Qingyue said this, she felt inexplicably relieved in her heart. She said, "When my family comforts me, they always tell me to work hard to overcome it and that things will get better."

But Huo Qingchi didn't do that.

Huo Qingchi said to her, it's okay if it's strange, but what's the big deal?

This made Ye Qingyue feel a little...

relieved.

"...Thank you."

Ye Qingyue sat in the back seat and raised her hand to hold the corner of Huo Qingchi's shirt.

The road from the county town back to Xiangyang Village by bike is not long, but not short either.

It's summer, and it's quite hot even in the early morning.

If it were in the past, Ye Qingyue hoped to get home as soon as possible.

But this time, when she heard Huo Qingchi say "we're here", Ye Qingyue actually felt that time had passed too quickly?

"Thank you so much."

Ye Qingyue jumped off the bicycle.

"What's the trouble?"

Huo Qingchi wished he could have more "troubles" like this and stay with Ye Qingyue longer.

"Qingyue, are you back?"

Ye Xianghong's voice rang out in the house.

Then, the door was opened. When

Ye Xianghong saw Ye Qingyue, her slightly wrinkled brows relaxed.

"Mom."

Ye Qingyue called her, and then introduced her to Huo Qingchi: "This is my mother."

Strictly speaking, this was not the first time Huo Qingchi and Ye Xianghong had met.

Ye Xianghong had met Huo Qingchi when Ye Qingyue took him home to detoxify.

However, Huo Qingchi left in a hurry after waking up. He only said a few words to Ye Feng and did not interact with Ye Xianghong.

"Hello, my name is Huo Qingchi, and I'm a friend of Comrade Ye."

Huo Qingchi immediately got off the bicycle, walked forward, and introduced himself seriously.

Looking at this posture, if you don’t know, you would think that he is the son-in-law who comes to meet his mother-in-law for the first time.

————

In the last chapter, someone asked why the heroine had to reveal Zheng Guangrong’s identity. Here is an explanation, because at that time, the two sides were confronting each other, and the situation was so tense that if it went wrong, it would be either death or injury [Zheng Guangrong saw the village chief trying to escape and directly shot. This plot has already shown that the atmosphere is tense].

Ye Qingyue’s exposure of the identity is also an act of confirming friendly forces. In addition, those present are either destined to die [village chief] or their own people, so even if Zheng Guangrong’s identity is exposed, it will not have any impact.

Rather, if it is not revealed, the two sides will fight instead.

This is also the reason why the Mainland Love Party went up to hug Zheng Guangrong after seeing him, because Yu Kang was arrested, Zheng Guangrong's undercover operation has ended, and he no longer needs to pretend.

orz I thought I wrote it very clearly, but I didn't expect the heroine to be misunderstood. After thinking about it, it's better to explain it.
