Chapter 145 Gone



Shi Na didn't want He Guihua to keep pestering her, so she said, "It's fine."

He Guihua was very happy to hear that the two people got along well.

But he didn't forget to remind Shi Na, "It's not easy to find someone with the same qualifications as Deputy Captain Ding. You must cherish him well and don't let your temper scare him away."

Shi Na was a little impatient and said perfunctorily, "I know. Mom, I'm a little sleepy. I'll sleep for a while. You can call me when we get there."

After saying that, he leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes to rest.

Although He Guihua wanted to say something more, seeing her expression, she knew to wait and ask later.

Back at the guesthouse, Chen Guihua talked to Shi Na about going home.

They have been in North City for so many days, it's time to go back.

Shi Na touched the note in her hand and felt a little reluctant to leave.

He asked, "Now that we're back in South City, what should I do about the matter between me and Deputy Captain Ding?"

He Guihua didn't care about this question at all. "You are in North City, and he is in the military camp all day long. You can't see him. It's almost the same as in South City."

"Then it's not okay to never see each other."

"I didn't say you can't meet. When Captain Ding is on vacation, you can come to North City, or he can go to South City. That's fine."

Shi Na, "Isn't this too troublesome?"

He Guihua, "This is not a problem at all. It was a real problem before there were no trains. Okay, go to bed quickly. Go buy a ticket tomorrow morning. There's a train back to South City at noon."

"Don't you want to tell Ye Qing and the others?"

He Guihua pointed to the clothes placed in the far corner and said, "We need to take the clothes back. How are we going to tell Ye Qing?"

After I told them, I would definitely go to see them off to the train station. I regretted seeing these clothes.

How to explain it then?

It was only when Ye Qing received a call from He Guihua in the evening that he learned that they had returned to South City.

She pretended to be polite and said, "Second Aunt, why are you leaving so soon? Why don't you stay for a few more days?"

He Guihua, "Something happened at home, and your second uncle was in a hurry to get me back, so I didn't have time to tell you.

After hanging up the phone, He Guihua called Shi Na over to help her sort out the clothes that she had brought back from Beicheng with great difficulty.

"Mom, look at this."

She was folding clothes when she suddenly heard Shi Na calling her.

He stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shi Na pointed to a pile of tied clothes and said, "Mom, come and take a look. Take a look inside."

He Guihua recognized that they were some old-style clothes that she had bought from the old lady for two hundred yuan.

What could be wrong with these clothes? Are they dirty or bitten by insects?

I walked over with curiosity.

When I looked down, I found that the old clothes were filled with rags inside, and only the outside was clothes.

Shi Na was furious, "Mom, that old lady cheated us."

They used old clothes wrapped in rags to cheat them out of their money.

These scraps of cloth were so small and tattered that they were not even worth ten dollars, yet she asked them for two hundred dollars.

He Guihua was a little bit unbelieving. She bent down and untied all the ropes that tied the clothes, and shook out everything inside.

I was looking forward to seeing only this layer of rags in front of me, with clothes underneath.

But the opposite happened. There were still rags under the rags, not a single piece of clothing.

Looking at the rags on the ground in front of her, He Guihua gritted her teeth in anger, "This old bastard." How dare he lie to her?

Shi Na asked, "What should I do now, Mom?"

Could it be that these two hundred dollars were just cheated away like this?

What else could I do if I didn't get cheated like this?

Do I have to take the train back to North City to settle the score with that old lady?

Let’s not even talk about how much a round-trip train ticket would cost.

So what if I said I went to North City to find that old lady?

She will definitely not admit it.

I can only swallow this loss in silence.

Ye Qing didn't know that He Guihua had already bought clothes from someone else.

But even if I knew, I wouldn't care.

It would be better if she didn't buy from her, so that she wouldn't have to come to her to argue if she encountered any problems in the future.

The next day, Ye Qing was bored at home, so he went to the store.

When I walked to the door, I saw that the door of Xiaoli's clothing store was open. I walked into the store and asked, "Hongxia, what's going on with Liu Xiaoli's store next door?"

Why is the door open?

Hongxia was about to tell Ye Qing, "This is what happened. Liu Xiaoli's creditors came to ask Liu Xiaoli's mother for a debt, but the old lady had no money, so they said they would use the things in the store to pay it off.

Then the old lady brought them here, but when they opened the door, they found that all the goods inside were gone.

The debt collectors said the old lady took it, but the old lady said the items were stolen from the store."

"What happened next?"

"The old lady called the police, but they haven't found out what happened yet."

Ye Qing glanced through the window towards Xiaoli's clothing store and shook his head helplessly.

There are so many things going on in their family.

Hongxia remembered something and asked, "Oh, Sister Ye Qing, Liu Xiaoli, Qin Xiao'e, and Chunhong have been detained for so many days. When will they be sentenced?"

For such a bad person, she hopes the sentence is as severe as possible.

"Soon, just in the next few days."

"Very good."

After looking at the account books of the past few days, Ye Qing saw that it was almost time for lunch, so he was about to leave.

As I walked to the door, I saw Su Jing talking to a young man at the stall outside with a shy look on her face.

Looking at Hongxia, he asked, "Is that Su Jing's boyfriend?"

Hongxia glanced outside and said, "No, that's Hu Bo, Su Jing's elementary school classmate."

Ye Qing nodded and left without saying anything else.

Almost the moment Ye Qing came out of the store, Hu Bo asked Su Jing, "Su Jing, who is that woman?"

Su Jing looked in the direction and said, "That's our boss."

Hu Bo's eyes were filled with amazement. "She's so young and already a boss. Her family must be very rich, right?"

Su Jing thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if her family is rich, but her husband should be quite rich."

Hu Bo's expression changed immediately after hearing this. "She...she's married?"

"Yes, the children are almost one year old. Oh, and they are twins, a boy and a girl. They are so cute."

Not only was she married, but she also had a child. Hu Bo's face turned even worse.

Su Jing thought he was feeling unwell and asked with concern, "Hu Bo, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Hu Bo shook his head. "It's okay. I'm leaving now."

"Why did you leave? Didn't you say you would treat me to dinner later?" Su Jing reminded a little embarrassedly.

Hu Bo forced a smile and said, "I forgot I still have some things to do. I'll treat you to dinner next time."

"Well, go get your work done."

As soon as Hu Bo left, Su Jing returned to the store.

Hongxia saw her come in and joked, "Why are you back so soon? Why didn't you say a few more words to your old classmates?"
