Xia Fei and the old lady did not go back to the capital directly, but went to the hot spring hotel on the outskirts of the capital that Murong Luqian had booked the night before.

Since Murong Luqian made the reservation in the name of the company, Xia Fei could just check in directly.

Along the way, Xia Fei and the old lady also chatted a lot.

Although, the old lady was still wary of Xia Fei and was unwilling to reveal too much.

However, Xia Fei still got the information she wanted from the old lady.

For example, why did the old lady have an accident? What did she go through before and after the accident?

She still refused to tell the identity and name of the person behind it, nor did she want to point out Su Tianyi's crimes by name. She only said that Teacher Xu was taken advantage of by those students and ended up like this.

With this information, Xia Fei can make basic assumptions.

After a tiring journey all morning, Xia Fei was not in a hurry to let the old lady have a showdown with him. He just asked her to take a rest and talk later.

This hot spring hotel is the property of the Si family, and they are very safe.

Xia Fei went to take a shower and came out. When she saw the old lady sitting on the balcony in a daze, she turned on the computer and chatted with Si Chen for a while.

Si Chen had escaped the pursuit and seemed to be sleeping. He was woken up by Xia Fei, and his voice was still a little unclear.

Hearing Xia Fei's voice, Si Chen had a lazy smile on his lips, "Are you done?"

Xia Fei nodded, "Well, did it disturb you enough to take a rest?"

"It's not that I was quarreling, I just kept thinking about what my Mrs. Si has been doing behind my back these days."

There was obviously a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction in Si Chen's voice.

Xia Fei could tell that he was resentful of himself.

Also, she thought Teacher Xu's matter was quite simple, so she didn't mention it to Si Chen and planned to handle it herself.

But I didn’t expect that it would be so involved in the end.

However, Si Chen is still very open-minded.

At least when Xia Fei asked him for help yesterday, Si Chen didn't say anything and just got the job done.

What I have to admit is that Si Chen is very reliable in his work. He did everything Xia Fei said and didn't say. He was very considerate and meticulous and saved Xia Fei a lot of trouble.

Therefore, facing Si Chen's questioning, Xia Fei not only didn't feel disgusted, but even felt warm in her heart.

"I thought it was just a small matter, so I didn't mention it to you, but I didn't expect that I would make such a big discovery this time when I came to Tuzhou. I haven't completely figured it out yet."

Although Xia Fei's explanation was a bit perfunctory, Si Chen still sighed and expressed understanding, "When will you come back?"

"I'm staying here to avoid the limelight. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll go back early tomorrow morning or tonight."

Si Chen nodded, "Okay, pay more attention to your own safety."

"Master Chen, there is news about Miss Yuanyuan..." Xiao Ming's excited voice suddenly came from Si Chen's side.

But Xiao Ming was obviously stopped by Si Chen and did not continue.

Xia Fei originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but Si Chen said softly, "Good boy, please do your work first. I have some small things to deal with here. I'll contact you after it's done, okay?"

"Okay, take care of yourself."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Fei's expression became a little solemn.

In the past two days, she had been so focused on dealing with Teacher Xu's affairs that she had forgotten that there was a runaway Si Yuanyuan at home.

She originally thought that Si Yuanyuan was just a willful little brat who got into a temper with Qiu Wanyun and would go back to cool off. But now it seems...

I'm afraid...

Xia Fei originally wanted to ignore it, but the quarrel between Si Yuanyuan and Qiu Wanyun had something to do with her.

Thinking of Si Chen and Qiu Wanyun, Xia Fei still investigated Si Yuanyuan's situation.

However, if you don’t check, you won’t know. After checking, it was discovered that something really happened to Si Yuanyuan.

Because the old lady suddenly came in to see Xia Fei, Xia Fei could only put down what she was doing and let her men continue to investigate Si Yuanyuan's matter, while she put away her computer.

"Let's talk." The old lady seemed to have suddenly figured it out. She sat opposite Xia Fei and looked at Xia Fei calmly.

Even though his body was dilapidated and covered in scars, his sitting posture was still elegant, his manners were dignified, and his whole body was filled with invisible nobility.

"Master, please tell me." Xia Fei poured her a glass of hot water and sat quietly opposite the old lady.

The old lady lowered her head and took a deep breath, "What did you talk to Xu Yanxuan today?"

"I took a short video today and recorded the audio. If the old lady wants to see it, I can give it to you at any time." Xia Fei said, opening her mobile phone and placing the cover of the short video in front of her.

At a glance, the old lady saw Xu Yanxuan lying on the bed with an old face but an excited expression. Tears filled her eyes, her hands clenched into fists, and her body couldn't stop shaking.

It has been more than ten years, and I never expected that we would meet again in this situation.

The old lady lost control of her emotions and started crying directly covering her face.

However, when she wanted to reach out to grab Xia Fei's cell phone, Xia Fei pulled her away.

"Master, please calm down."

The old lady finally woke up and realized her current situation. She took a deep breath and looked at Xia Fei coldly, "You deliberately tempted me to lose my composure!"

Although Xia Fei was moved to see the old lady like this, but...

She was indeed testing him just now.

Seeing the old lady crying with excitement after meeting Teacher Xu, Xia Fei dared to confirm that the old lady's appearance was really to save Teacher Xu and not for any other purpose.

"Master's wife, I'm worried that you are too emotional and we won't be able to have a good chat."

The old lady wiped away her tears, her eyes still red, "Come on, what do you want to know from me?"

"I only told half of my story this morning. Although I also have the second half, I still want to hear you tell it to me yourself so that I can sort out the situation and sort out the effective information."

The old lady took a deep look at Xia Fei and said, "You look young, but you have quite a lot of ambition and ability."

Xia Fei shrugged, "You should be aware that Teacher Xu's students are no ordinary people."

The old lady sneered, obviously not taking it seriously, but she also knew that this was a fact.

"I hope his students can be simpler and simpler. They just need to paint well and don't think about what they have and what they don't have all day long."

It is not difficult to see that the old lady is very disgusted with those struggles.

When she first fell in love with Teacher Xu, she was afraid that it was because Teacher Xu was kind-hearted and obsessed with painting, so he didn't know how to scheming, right?

It's a pity that people who are too kind and simple, once they have a certain degree of power and status, if they cannot protect themselves well, they will be taken advantage of by people with malicious intentions and become victims of certain people's manipulation of power.

"I guess Master's wife's family background is not simple, right? I wonder which family in the capital you are from?" Xia Fei's eyes were sharp and her tone was firm.

The old lady raised her eyes and narrowed her eyes slightly to look at Xia Fei, "What did you find out?"

"It's just that I haven't found any confirmed information, so I'm asking you here."

"Little girl, don't think you dare to mess around because you have some ability. Let me tell you, if you touch something you shouldn't touch and get yourself involved, you will regret it yourself!"

"Is this how you fell into trouble back then?" Xia Fei raised the corner of her mouth.
