171 Chapter 170, Doubts
Zhang Kun thought about it and agreed. No matter how arrogant the other party was, they wouldn’t go so far as to commit a cri in broad daylight, right?
However, in this matter, he still had to find a way to get to the root of the problem.
After hesitating for a mont, Zhang Kun still placed the spoon in Li Xu’s hand, “Alright, you continue to cook. I have to go to the unit.”
Li Xu took the spoon naturally, “Don’t worry about . I’ll call you if I sothing happens.”
Zhang Kun nodded, “Alright, I’ll call Xiao Gong over for dinner.”
He went back to his ho and quickly called Xiao Gong over.
“Alright, I’ll be going then. Call if you need anything.” Standing at the door, Zhang Kun took the key and instructed.
After sending Zhang Kun off, only Li Xu and Gong Wenbai were left in the living room.
“Why were you here last night?” Li Xu asked curiously.
How could it be such a coincidence?
Unexpectedly, Gong Wenbai shook his head and said, “It’s not a coincidence, I’ve been downstairs for the past two nights!”
Downstairs for the past two nights?
“What’s going on?” Li Xu was a little surprised.
“Didn’t Yuanyuan tell you?” Gong Wenbai said, “She told Grandpa Qin about your family. Grandpa Qin was afraid that sothing might happen to you, so he asked to rest during the day and keep watch downstairs at night.”
Li Xu suddenly rembered that Ji Yuanyuan did go to the Qin family on the afternoon of the car accident. Had Yuanyuan already thought of this at that ti?
Li Xu was very surprised for a mont.
She had only realized it the second ti the police had co that she had to be careful if they took revenge. However, Yuanyuan had thought of this on the day of the car accident..
“Weren’t you the one who asked Yuanyuan to look for Master? Yuanyuan and I had discussed it. If I didn’t find out in ti from downstairs and she heard sothing, she would open the curtains,” Gong Wenbai said.
Hearing Gong Wenbai’s words, Li Xu was a little distracted.
She slept rather lightly tonight, so she didn’t hear any sounds from outside. Yuanyuan was a child, and the room she stayed in was the furthest away from the main door.
Could it be that she hadn’t slept all this ti?
There were many doubts in her heart, but now was not the ti to ask.
Li Xu ca back to her senses and quickly answered, “Yes, I told Yuanyuan to go.”
After a pause, she said, “The noodles are ready. You can go back after eating, you’ve worked hard last night.”
Gong Wenbai politely shook his head, “It wasn’t hard at all.”
Li Xu woke the children up. Gong Wenbai left after breakfast.
The children also went to school. Yang Jingyi and Hu Chunli were waiting downstairs as usual.
After the children left, Hu Chunli and Li Xu walked into the shop together.
“What’s going on in your shop? Did you offend soone?” When Hu Chunli ca, she had already seen the tragic scene inside.
Li Xu whispered to Hu Chunli about what had happened in the past few days.
When Hu Chunli heard her words, she sighed, “It’s hard to be a good person. I hope the police can find the culprit. They’re too arrogant!”
As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the shop. The shop was indeed badly damaged. The glass door was broken, the lock was broken, and the shelves inside had collapsed. All the vegetables were scattered on the floor.
There were many people around watching the show.
Hu Chunli rolled up her sleeves and helped Li Xu to tidy up the shop.
The shop could not open, so Li Xu went ho to cook at around ten o’clock.
The children had returned just when she finished cooking.
Ji Zi’ang and Ji Yuanyuan did not seem to be affected. They did what they were supposed to do, and their expressions were the sa as before.
Ji Zixuan was a child with deep thought, his face showed fatigue, and there was a faint dark circle on his eyes.
He probably did not sleep well last night.
Li Xu thought to herself, why don’t I get Zhang Kun to co over tonight and sleep with the two children for the night.
After dinner, the children went to take a nap while Li Xu cleaned up the dining table.
Ji Yuanyuan walked to the bedroom door and turned her head to look at Li Xu strangely.
Li Xu was still focused on cleaning the table and did not seem to notice Ji Yuanyuan’s actions at all.
Ji Yuanyuan frowned strangely. This ti, she walked into the bedroom and lay on the bed, quietly waiting for Li Xu to enter.
However, even though ji Yuanyuan was about to fall asleep, Li Xu still did not enter.
Instead, the door to the room next door closed gently.
Ji Yuanyuan opened her eyes and thought to herself in surprise, ‘Didn’t mom want to ask about what happened last night?’
She had already thought of an answer!
Initially, she was still a little sleepy, but now, she could not fall asleep at all. After tossing and turning on the bed for a long while, she got up and quietly went to Li Xu’s room next door.
Standing at the door, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Xu who was lying on the bed and called out softly, “Mommy…”
Li Xu opened her eyes and looked at her in amusent. She lifted the blanket and said, “Co here!”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward, got on the bed, and crawled under Li Xu’s blanket.
“Can’t Sleep?” Li Xu asked in a low voice.
“Mom, don’t you want to ask about last night?” Ji Yuanyuan raised her head and looked at Li Xu curiously.
...
In the morning, she had heard the conversation between Uncle Gong and her mother in the room.
She thought that her mother must have many questions to ask her.
Li Xu Chuckled and reached out to touch ji Yuanyuan’s nose, “Why are you so impatient?”
Ji Yuanyuan smiled embarrassedly.
Li Xu paused for a mont and sighed softly. She said in a low voice, “Sotis, I feel that you don’t look like a child. Instead, you look like an adult. Could it be because of the space?”
She muttered softly. Ti passed quickly in the space, and Yuanyuan often stay inside. Therefore, although Yuanyuan’s biological age was still seven years old.
But was his ntal age already over seven years old?
Ji Yuanyuan was shocked when he heard Li Xu’s words.
But very quickly, Li Xu spoke again, “But no matter what, you are still my daughter. If there are so things you want to tell , then I will listen. If you haven’t thought of how to tell , then don’t say it.”
Ji Yuanyuan listened to Li Xu’s words and moved closer.
“Thank you, Mommy!”
...
In the afternoon, the two police officers ca over again.
They brought bad news. They interrogated the person who broke into the house last night for an entire night and an entire morning, but nothing ca out.
“The other party only said that he wanted to enter your house to take so money. He didn’t want to do anything else,” The tall police officer said, “He insisted that there was no one behind him, and he also refused to admit that he was the one who smashed your shop. Although we are not sure yet… you still have to be careful.”
How could it be so coincidental? Just after the car accident, their house was robbed?
Moreover, if he just wanted to steal money, how could her shop be smashed?
Everyone understood it must be because of the car accident. She was a witness, so the other party retaliated against her.
