Yan Youting broke out in a cold sweat. Every time Li Shuwen stared at that pimple, she would not only do it herself, but also drag him into it and not let him off the hook.
"Do I have one? No way!"
Li Shuwen pretended to be arrogant and amnesiac, and they quickly arrived at Nanshan Temple by exchanging words back and forth.
This is the closest and most efficacious temple to City A.
Li Shuwen and Yan Youting quickly went inside and offered incense.
After seeking guidance from the master and receiving satisfactory results, he left Nanshan Temple with peace of mind.
"After hearing Master Qingyuan's guidance, I feel much more at ease."
Li Shuwen also calmed down.
"Yes, yes! Our Luoluo is so lucky! It's just that the road has been so bumpy, but after all the hardship comes happiness!"
Yan Youting finally felt relieved.
The two felt much better.
"Tonight, I'm going to cook myself and invite all three kids back for dinner! I'll also invite Ayan and Jiu'an!"
Li Shuwen was unaware that An Xinyue and Li Shaochuan were together.
"Oh dear, what about Yueyue? Should we let her watch those two couples showing off their love? Wouldn't that be too much of a blow to her?"
Yan Youting slapped his thigh excitedly, feeling that doing so seemed a bit unfair.
"Now that you mention it, it makes some sense... But it's just a meal, Yueyue won't think much of it. It's okay, I'll have Luoluo call her over!"
After Li Shuwen finished speaking, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Yan Xiluo.
"My dear daughter, let Feifei and Yueyue come over for dinner tonight. And remember to bring your boyfriends home with you, Feifei!"
"Mom's cooking tonight!"
Only after sending this message did Li Shuwen feel at ease enough to turn off the screen.
Yan Xiluo, who was discussing a plan with Li Mufei and An Xinyue, inadvertently opened the WeChat page on her computer.
"Why won't Auntie let Yueyue bring her boyfriend? Isn't Yueyue's boyfriend family too? He's her own nephew! My brother did something wrong?"
Li Mufei was a little confused. Had Li Shaochuan done something to anger Li Shuwen? Was he not even allowed to enter the house?
"Um...is it possible that my mom has no idea that Yueyue is dating her cousin Shaochuan?"
Yan Xiluo shook her head helplessly. Their relationship was only known to the Li family. It wasn't discussed in the group chat, so it was normal that Li Shuwen didn't know.
"Oh, right! My aunt wasn't home that day!"
Li Mufei then remembered that Li Shaochuan had brought An Xinyue home in a bit of a rush that day, and the whole family was very nervous. How could they have thought of telling Li Shuwen such great news?
"It's alright, Shao Chuan can come along."
Just as Yan Xiluo was about to send a message to Li Shuwen, Li Shuwen sent several more messages.
“My dear daughter, your cousin Shaochuan should be in City A too, right? Why don’t we invite him to come over for dinner? He’s a lonely old man in his twenties and he still doesn’t know how to find a girlfriend.”
"I think he and Yueyue are a good match. Since he's coming to our house, why don't you and Feifei try to set them up?"
"Mom likes Yueyue very much too. It would be so great if we could become a family!"
Seeing this, Yan Xiluo and Li Mufei secretly chuckled, while An Xinyue's face turned bright red. She hadn't expected that even Li Shuwen liked her so much, and that she would say it so bluntly.
"Mom, Cousin Shaochuan and Yueyue started dating not long ago. We're all going out for dinner tonight, but we need to be busy with work right now."
Yan Xiluo knew that if she didn't say that, Li Shuwen would gossip about it for a while.
The main reason is that she's really busy right now! Yan Xiluo's fingertips flew across the keyboard.
"Okay, that's great! Mom got it! Mom won't bother you while you're working! See you tonight~"
"Okay, Mom."
"Okay, let's continue..."
The three then continued discussing the plan.

Waist support belt manufacturing plant
"Brother Yu, look at that guy, he's acting suspiciously. Could he be someone the boss ordered us to arrest?"
Ayu took two brothers and went to the waist support belt factory to investigate.
He looked in the direction his subordinate pointed and saw a person climbing over the wall into a neighboring factory, looking around.
Ayu led the two of them to hurry forward and chase after them. Ayu put her arm around his shoulder, and Pang Jiayi subconsciously grabbed her back, and the two of them started wrestling.
"Why is it you?"
Once Ayu and Pang Jiayi saw each other's faces clearly, they immediately stopped fighting.
"Of course I'm here to help the boss investigate!"
Pang Jiayi straightened his clothes and then said to Ayu.
"Oh, I see. I mistook you for someone who steals samples because you were acting suspiciously."
Ah Yu spoke the truth, looking a little embarrassed.
"I came this way to save time. What are you doing here?"
Pang Jiayi was helpless; was climbing over the wall now considered sneaky?
"Of course I'm here to investigate too! I'm here on the boss's orders to help my sister-in-law's company catch a thief!"
Since they fought side by side in Muyuan Village, they have both left a deep impression on each other and have come to admire one another.
"Together?"
Pang Jiayi felt that since everyone had the same goal, it would be easier to investigate together and more insightful to analyze together.
"Sure! I just got here!"
Ayu readily agreed, thinking it would be better to have someone else to discuss things with.
“I just came to check the surveillance footage, and it turns out that someone has deliberately covered it up. This is much more troublesome than simply destroying the footage. Using surveillance footage is not an option, but someone so familiar with the factory's location must be a factory employee, that's pretty much certain.”
Pang Jiayi shared what he had just done, thus preventing Ayu and the others from wasting any more time on it.
"Then shall we secretly investigate the employees of their factory?"
Ah Yu looked around and pulled Pang Jiayi to a more secluded spot to discuss things.
"Yes, it has to be done secretly to make it easier to find clues. If that doesn't work, we can launch a large-scale investigation. A little intimidation should be enough to get them to confess."
Pang Jiayi felt that the factory employees wouldn't be too mentally strong, and it should be easy for them to find out who stole the samples.
"Okay, then let's..."
Ayu, along with his two brothers and Pang Jiayi, discussed the plan and then conducted a secret investigation.

It was almost noon
The three of them had almost finished their work in the morning. After putting down their work, Yan Xiluo stretched and went to the coffee machine to pour herself a cup of coffee.
What should we eat for lunch?
Li Mufei was particularly concerned about this issue.
“Ayan brought me food, so I probably won’t be able to eat with you guys. He just sent me a message saying that.”
Lan Jingyan even took photos for her, showing that the food he prepared was all light and simple, clearly only for Yan Xiluo.
"Um, your brother also said he'd bring me food... he just mentioned it, but it looks like there's a lot, we can eat together."
An Xinyue wasn't sure either... she wasn't sure if there would be enough to eat, but she figured Li Mufei was Li Shaochuan's younger sister after all, so she would definitely bring some along.
Li Mufei was bewildered. What was going on today?
