Ji Huatao became awkward at this time: "I just want to ask you, are you and Brother Yuan implicated by me?"

"It was only then that I remembered to ask, Ji Huatao, you are really heartless."

"That's not me..." Ji Huatao defended a few words in a low voice, and finally said, "It's my problem. Seeing that you are fine now, Brother Yuan should be fine, right?"

There were only a few scattered lights in the dim street. Ji Huatao and Pei Zhen were standing here, and Ji Hualin was not ten steps away from the opposite side.

Perhaps because of the darkness, he felt that the other party could not see him clearly, so his expression relaxed, his eyebrows showed a rare softness, and the hand holding the fan became a little gentler.

"Look down on me? Can I still let Brother Yuan be trained for me?"

Ji Huatao felt more relieved, waved his hand and said, "That's it, let's go back."

After walking a few steps, he looked back, his facial features wrinkled together: "Don't face me with such an expression in the future. It's a bit disgusting."

Ji Hualin stood there and wished he could go forward and slap someone. He calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Get out."

I don't want to listen to nice things, but I feel comfortable only if I have to say hard things.

But Ji Hualin imagined that if Ji Huatao spoke softly, he might get goosebumps all over his body.

Pei Zhen sent the people to Jiexi Pavilion and went back by himself.

The door of Mingxin Mansion was closed, and Pei Zhen went back to his room through the back door.

Tomorrow will start to be busy again, and I don’t know what Li Mansion will arrange to survive.

Li Fuying's mind has been restless these past few days. Ever since he heard Ji Hualin's words that day, he has been thinking a little too much.

While eating, he almost buried his face in the bowl, but a force from the collar on the back of his neck pulled him up.

Mrs. Li put the bowl down and looked at him seriously.

Li Fuying was pretending that something was wrong and he had just made a fool of himself. How could he dare to face her now?

His eyes were evasive while picking vegetables and cooking rice. Even the ginger that had never been in the mouth was eaten without any reaction.

It wasn't until the aftertaste came back that Li Fuying frowned, pinched his nose and took a long sip of water before giving up.

But in a blink of an eye, Mrs. Li still didn't let him go, her chopsticks were placed on the table, and the half bowl of rice was not eaten at all.

Li Fu smiled apologetically and said, "What's wrong, madam? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Mrs. Li changed her posture and looked at him: "Is there something urgent in the house?"

"Not at all."

It's really not an urgent matter. After all, it's been more than ten years, and the case was originally closed as an accident.

"Is the boss putting pressure on you?"

"Not at all."

If the Lord knew about this, it would be more than just pressure.

"Who did you offend when you did something wrong?"

"Not at all."

There are people who annoy him, and he can be seen all day long.

"Then I don't understand." Mrs. Li sat upright, with one hand on her lap and the other on the table, tapping gently, "First, no one is urging you, second, no one blames you, and third, you have done nothing wrong. Son, what's wrong with you today?"

Mrs. Li had been paying attention to his movements all day today. He was either slow or out of shape.

"It's not just today, it started several days ago." At first, Mrs. Li didn't care, thinking that there was another difficult case to solve, and told the kitchen to make some fancy dishes, at least it would be more enjoyable to eat.

It's just that it's been like this for several days. She also went to Mingxin Mansion and saw the state of the government officials. It didn't look like something big had happened to Mingxin Mansion.

She was the only one who had a sad face all day long, as if someone owed him thousands of taels of silver.

The two of them had agreed from the day they got married that they would not bring their emotions outside into the home.

If you are really angry or uncomfortable, you can talk to the other person about it.

The two of them have been keeping it all these years.

Just this time, this person didn't even think about eating. Only a ghost would believe it if he said he was fine.

"Madam." Li Fuying said it was difficult for him to say how he could express this matter.

He changed his mind and coaxed: "It's my fault this time, but it's hard for me to say until this has been confirmed. How about I tell Madam when there are results in two days?"

Mrs. Li glanced at him, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and said, "I won't do this next time."

Li Fuying nodded hurriedly.

Li Fuying thought a lot that night. If the investigation was to be done as soon as possible, it would be difficult if someone was to deal with it too late.

Just who do you have to call?

Early the next morning, Pei Zhen stretched himself and stood at the door of the room, yawning and greeting people.

The door next to him was opened. Pei Zhen heard the movement and was confused. He stuck his head out and asked, "You didn't go home yesterday?"

Xu Suiran held the hair tie and tied it around his head, and replied: "I didn't come back because it was too late."

Pei Zhen was stunned, took a few steps over there, and asked curiously: "You and my sister also went out? Where did you go? I'll go shopping next time."

Xu Suiran lowered his eyes and glanced at him, then looked away and remained silent.

Pei Zhen became more and more curious when he saw him like this. He stepped forward and pestered the person to ask questions. Seeing that the person was forced to leave, he chased after him and kept asking questions.

Xu Suiran walked quickly, but Pei Zhen chased him quickly.

He just lowered his head and chased after him without paying attention to the footsteps of the person in front of him.

I hit my head immediately.

Pei Zhen rubbed his head and grinned. He was about to shout at Xu Suiran when he suddenly heard a cough.

Then he turned around and saw that Li Fuying's eyes were hard to read at the moment, and Pei Zhen's eyes were filled with disgust.

Pei Zhen cleared his throat and put down his hand: "Morning, boss."

Li Fuying responded with a faint nod and said, "Come with me."

Pei Zhen pricked up his ears and watched the behavior of these two people carefully. Why didn't he call him if something happened?

Li Fuying had long noticed Pei Zhen's hot eyes, and he restrained himself from looking at him.

This kid is not easy to get rid of, and it will be difficult to deal with it if he really finds out.

He immediately took Xu Suiran away.

This look was obviously to guard against Pei Zhen. He stood there and looked at their backs and instantly felt abandoned.

It's not a good idea to follow along, and you can't eavesdrop on people.

At worst, he could just ask Xu Suiran when he came out. He didn't believe there was any news that he couldn't ask for.

Xu Suiran followed Li Fuying out of the backyard and came to Li Fuying's study.

He could feel that what he said next was unusual, otherwise he would not hide it from Pei Zhen.

"Just say what Fu Ying has to say." Seeing Li Fu Ying's contradiction, Xu Suiran spoke first.

Li Fuying sighed and said, "In that case, I'll tell you. You can probably guess why I called you here instead of Pei Zhen. That kid can't hide things. You might be questioned when you go out. When the time comes, just pick up some unimportant things and talk to him about it to fool him."

"The government should please speak."

Li Fuying closed the door and walked to the window and said slowly: "You should have seen the fire case in Chenjiazhuang 15 years ago."

Xu Suiran recalled that it seemed like someone had told about this case the day before yesterday: "A family of three caught fire?"
