Tian Xiaolan thought for a moment and replied, "You see he's usually carefree, but when he does something, he's very decisive. He's a good man!"
After hearing her evaluation, Zhou Qiaoqiao felt that Tian Xiaolan had no such feelings for Xing Yifei, which meant that he was just unrequited love for her. She didn't intend to tell Tian Xiaolan about her guess about this matter, so she just let them develop naturally.
''good.''
Tian Xiaolan yawned, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said, "Sister Zhou, I'm sleepy first, you should go to bed early too."
"I'll go to bed right away."
Zhou Qiaoqiao turned off the lights. She really wanted to talk about this with Shi Shichang, but it was already very late and he was asleep.
The next day, it was already dawn outside. Tian Xiaolan heard the sound of someone turning over and getting up beside her and opened her eyes.
Zhou Qiaoqiao was already putting on her shoes, so Tian Xiaolan also stood up.
Zhou Qiaoqiao saw that she had also gotten up and asked, "Do you want to go to the bathroom?"
''yes.''
Zhou Qiaoqiao told her: "Hurry up, there aren't many people here yet, but you'll have to queue up soon."
After hearing her words, Tian Xiaolan hurried to the toilet.
After solving the physiological problem, he came back and said: "Sister Zhou, you don't want to go?"
"I don't feel anything."
Tian Xiaolan came back from the bathroom and felt smelly, so she stood outside the door to get some fresh air.
Looking at the fog outside, it seemed as if a veil had covered the sky and the earth, and the road in the distance could not be seen clearly.
After standing outside for a few minutes, she felt a chill sweeping over her arms, and goose bumps appeared. Tian Xiaolan touched her arms and went into the house.
Zhou Qiaoqiao, who had taken out the dishes, saw her standing at the door blowing the cold wind: "It's so early in the morning, you went to the toilet and came in right away. Why are you blowing the cold wind outside? Don't catch a cold!"
When Tian Xiaolan heard her caring words, she went in.
After breakfast, Tian Xiaolan followed Shi Shichang to get the title deed and keys.
Zhou Qiaoqiao warned: "Shichang, be careful on the road."
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect her."
So the two of them went out, and Shi Shichang asked: "Tian Xiaolan, how did you sleep last night?"
"Good, I'm not sleepy at all now."
''That's good.''
Many people on the road greeted Shi Shichang, and Shi Shichang responded one by one. Some people looked at Tian Xiaolan, always knowing about her from the posted notices.
Tian Xiaolan walked on as if she didn't see anything, and the two of them soon arrived at the gate.
It was still the same gatekeeper, dozing off in the pavilion at the door.
Shi Shichang walked over and knocked on the table: "It's time to eat!"
The old man opened his eyes and smacked his lips when he heard this: "Where is the meal?" He couldn't even smell the aroma of food.
Just as he was about to lose his temper, he saw that the person standing in front of him was Director Shi. The words that were about to be swore stuck in his throat. He smiled and said, "Director, why are you here so early? You are so diligent. It is a blessing for us to have a good official like you in our town!"
Shi Shichang heard his flattering voice and said angrily: "Okay, did you see anyone climbing in last night?"
Talking about this, the old man was very excited. This was related to his work. He said seriously: "I didn't even dare to blink yesterday. I definitely didn't let a fly in."
"I hope you do. Open the door."
The director seemed unconvinced. He argued, "I really didn't sleep. I just took a nap this morning because I was too sleepy."
"Okay, wait until you finish your shift and then go back to sleep."
Tian Xiaolan followed him upstairs. He used his key to open the door and found scratches on it. He immediately became alert and stared at the door, as if he wanted to see if there was anyone behind it.
Tian Xiaolan, who was standing by, also noticed the scratches on the door, and her eyes also showed a look of alertness.
After thinking for a moment, Tian Xiaolan made a gesture to Shi Shichang, indicating that she should open the door.
Her idea was simple: if someone inside suddenly attacked, she could dodge in time with her agility. Although Shi Shichang was a little worried, he couldn't resist Tian Xiaolan's insistence and had to hand the key to her, repeatedly reminding her to be careful.
Tian Xiaolan took a deep breath, took the key, and slowly reached for the door lock. Her movements were very gentle, trying not to make any noise. When the key was inserted into the lock and gently turned to the right, the door made a slight sound.
At this moment, all the muscles in Tian Xiaolan's body tensed up. She pushed the door open suddenly and her body moved to the side.
There was no one behind the door, which made both of them feel relieved. However, they did not relax their vigilance. Instead, they carefully checked every corner of the house, leaving no place where someone might be hiding.
After searching for a while, there was still no trace of anyone. Tian Xiaolan quickly walked to the window and carefully checked around the window, but found no footprints, which meant that the person did not come in now.
At this time, Shi Shichang hurriedly used the key to open the drawer, but before he could turn the key, the drawer was pulled out.
Seeing this, Tian Xiaolan hurried over to check. She couldn't wait to ask, "Director Shi, is the deed still there?"
Shi Shichang quickly flipped through the documents in the cabinet, but did not see the title deed and key. He could only shake his head helplessly at Tian Xiaolan.
Tian Xiaolan still didn't give up and continued to ask: "Did you put it somewhere else?"
Shi Shichang frowned, and suddenly remembered that after hearing Tian Xiaolan say that something was wrong, he transferred the things into the briefcase.
Yes! The briefcase. He opened the compartment and luckily it was still inside.
He took it out and showed it to Tian Xiaolan: "Didn't you tell me yesterday that Li Dafu was wrong, so I changed the position. Fortunately, it was not taken away."
His briefcase also left him for a while yesterday, but fortunately it was not discovered.
