"I called Big Brother this morning, and Sister-in-law must know about this now. Once I have any news, I’ll let you know imdiately."
"Okay, make sure you follow up on Bao Xiaorui’s matters quickly."
"Yes, all the units are back at work now, so it will be handled soon. He Peng is already selling his private assets."
"It seems he truly loves Bao Xiaorui."
Lu Yichen sensed her unease: "Justice may be delayed, but it will never be absent. Don’t worry, the victims will get the justice they deserve."
After Lu Yichen left, Luo Qiao imdiately dialed Second Brother Luo Xuyuan’s number: "Second Brother, it’s , Qiaoqiao."
"Has there been any news from the He family?"
"Yes, the evidence from the He family has been collected. Now, it’s just Bao Xiaorui’s side left. Are we going to have to use extre thods?"
"What do you an?"
"I plan to et this He family’s daughter-in-law, who moved up from being a mistress, in a few days at night."
"Alright, set a date and let know; I’ll accompany you. I’ve already arranged things with Bao Xiaorui’s family; once the ti is right, I’ll make sure he understands what it ans when the sky falls, and life isn’t worth living."
"Okay, let’s wait for Sister-in-law to et with He Jing and He Yuan to discuss, and then we can decide on the next step."
After hanging up, Luo Qiao took out ingredients from her space, braised so beef, stewed ribs, then shut the door, went back to her space, and prepared to tidy it up, also to adjust her mood a bit.

These past few days, He Peng has been busy finding buyers for his private assets. He had no choice; if he didn’t settle Bao Xiaorui’s issue, he might as well not think about continuing to live in Capital City.
Even if Bao Xiaorui’s trouble involves a public organization, causing such a big issue isn’t sothing the He family can suppress at will.
And the sooner this is resolved, the better for them. The longer it drags on, the worse it might be for the whole He family. Big Brother even ntioned that he feels soone is deliberately targeting them recently.
He put all his properties and those collected antique calligraphy and paintings up for sale, finally scraping together a million. Now he’s truly a pauper.
He’s been extrely frustrated these days, trying to communicate with his two kids to ease the tension between them. But his two sons wouldn’t even give him a chance. Before he could speak, they would turn their faces away, leaving him feeling utterly defeated.
But there’s nothing he can do about them. Who told him to ignore their existence for so many years? Thinking back, he realized he really must have been out of his mind.

When Lu Yichen ca back from work, the courtyard was filled with the sll of at, and he wore a big smile: "Qiaoqiao, I’m back."
Luo Qiao ca out of the kitchen: "Wash your hands, get ready to eat."
Lu Yichen approached with a smile: "What’s cooking? It slls so good?"
Luo Qiao pointed to the prepared water: "Wash up, and you’ll find out soon."
Lu Yichen made a gesture of ’as you command’ with a smile and went to wash his hands.
When he returned, there were potato stewed ribs, braised beef, hand-torn cabbage, and a vegetable egg soup, with rice as the main al.
Lu Yichen saw the braised beef: "Braised at, then tomorrow, using the braising juice, let’s braise so veggies and tofu skin, shall we?"
Luo Qiao laughed as she served the rice: "You’re getting greedier than ever. Fine, considering your good behavior today, I’ll go to the market tomorrow morning to get so tofu skin, duck blood, and quail eggs for you to satisfy your cravings."
Lu Yichen helped her with so vegetables: "My wife is always so good to . I’ll go buy them first thing in the morning, no need for you to run out again in this cold weather."
