"I've been so busy since I came back that I can't even squeeze in... Come on! Eat some cake, Mengmeng, don't be angry!"

Qin Yu quickly and attentively scooped a piece of cake and put it to Li Mengmeng's mouth.

"I forgive you for the sake of this meal! By the way! Let me tell you an interesting story, Yu'er."

"During the summer vacation, I worked in a bookstore in our city as a cashier. One day, an aunt came to buy a workbook for her child. She came several times! But the workbook was specified by the teacher, and she didn't ask our bookstore to buy it. In addition, the purchase price of the bookbook was high, so the number of people who wanted it was limited. Our store manager didn't buy much each time, and we were the only one who had this kind of workbook, so every time she came, it was sold out!"

"and then?"

"She's in vain again! The child is in a hurry to use the workbook for school, so she thinks we deliberately withheld the workbook from her. In short, she insists that we produce a workbook!"

Qin Yu stared at Li Mengmeng with interest and said firmly, "You will definitely confront her next."

"Hey... you still know me well, hahaha! I definitely won't indulge her bad habits! I told her that the workbook you want is for third graders, and all the employees in our store are at least ten years older than your child! Why would I keep it and not sell it to you? I want her to repeat the grade!"

"You are amazing..." Qin Yu couldn't help laughing, "And then?"

Wang Yuer also laughed, "She must have been furious! She said she was going to complain about our store... Our store manager chased me away, and I was punished to stand guard at the door."

"I hadn't been standing at the door for a few minutes when the alarm went off. It was a little girl passing by."

Qin Yu said: "Why? Didn't she pay for the things she bought?"

"Yes, but not entirely. She didn't pay, but she wasn't trying to buy anything. She was trying to steal something. The little girl was very embarrassed when she was caught, and her face turned red."

"You have sensors, how dare she?"

"The book she took had only half of its cover left. I guess she thought it wouldn't make any noise if she stole it. The child didn't look very old, maybe about ten years old, and the clothes she wore were old and didn't fit her at all. I wanted to let her go, but she didn't run away when I hesitated. The alarm went off at that time, and it was really loud! I had no choice but to report it to the store manager."

Li Mengmeng smacked her lips and said, "At this moment, the customer at the cashier's counter who wanted to buy a workbook is still not giving in..."

"My goodness, your store is busy enough! Then what? What are these two things related to each other? What did you do with the child?"

"After asking, we found out that the child's family couldn't afford to buy books. The teacher assigned homework in the form of exercise books, and she had to have at least one, no matter how much it cost. But she couldn't even afford the cheapest book, the one she stole... By the way, she repeatedly emphasized that she really didn't damage the book. If we didn't believe her, she would have cried."

Qin Yuwei sighed and asked, "Do you believe it?"

"You don't have to believe it. The book was torn to begin with. We know that. Then the store manager paid for the book out of his own pocket and let the little girl go. As a result, the customer who had been making trouble just now, hey? She stopped making a fuss and said that she would be notified next time when the stock was available, and then she left... Don't you think this is strange?"

Qin Yu blurted out: "She saw that someone couldn't even afford the cheapest exercise book, so she felt sorry for him and stopped being angry?"

"Hey! I thought so too! I thought she was touched by our store's actions! But our store manager told me that it was because she saw others who were in a worse situation than her, so she felt better psychologically and stopped looking for trouble with us."

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "You're right... human nature is like this."

"Yeah, it's so realistic..."

Inside the dedicated waiting room at Sandalwood High Speed ​​Railway Station.

"Mr. Qi, this is it. There's still an hour and a half before Wang Yuer leaves. I'll ask someone to tell her to come here."

"Yeah." Qi Wenyuan folded his hands together, closed his eyes and recalled what happened a month ago.

"Master Qi, someone is coming."

Wang Yuer came in and realized that the person looking for her was Qi Wenyuan. The joy in her eyes dimmed. The man who brought the message just now only said that he knew Qin Yu and wanted to trouble her to meet him for something.

When she asked more, the man just said that he was very good-looking and handsome, and she didn't know anything else...

So, she mistook it for Nan Yi.

"Qi Wenyuan? Are you looking for me?" They went to the same high school, and including the time when Qin Yu saved her before, Wang Yuer had seen Qi Wenyuan several times.

"Well, I'm sorry for being so rude. I just wanted to ask you something about Qin Yu. I mean no harm."

Wang Yuer nodded, but she didn't quite believe it in her heart.

"I'm going to be honest with you. When Xiaoyu met you at Sandalwood Prison No. 1 at the end of last month, did anything strange or special happen?"

"I didn't mean any harm. After that day, she became much more depressed and demanded a lot more of herself... You know, her parents weren't around, and she handled all these things by herself, and she never asked friends like you and me for help. But some things can be done by yourself, and if some things are very dangerous, as a friend you would definitely want her to feel more relaxed... Can you recall any details? Don't worry, you can think about it slowly."

Qi Wenyuan pushed a cup of tea in front of Wang Yuer and waited for her reply.

Wang Yuer looked at the man opposite quietly. He actually investigated Xiaoyu! What was his position? Would he hurt Xiaoyu?

For a moment, the amount of information was too much, and Wang Yuer was frightened. She pursed her lips and was not ready to tell Qi Wenyuan about Xiaoyu's aunt.

She promised her! She must keep it a secret!

However, this matter is indeed very dangerous. She knows very well that the harm caused by loved ones is the most difficult to resist and the most heartbreaking.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qi, I don't know what you are talking about."

After thinking it over, Wang Yuer changed her mind. No matter what, she could not treat this man as an ordinary friend.

"It's okay, you can think about it again. You are friends, and I'm glad you don't want to betray her."

Qi Wenyuan's voice was cold and slow, which made people let down their guard for no reason.

"To be honest, I found out that her aunt gambled and owed a lot of debt. You are very smart. Yu'er is Bai Ge's only relative, and there is an inseparable financial connection between them. Have you heard that it is a crime to possess a treasure?"

"She could have been safe, but she was coveted by others because of the hidden 'Jade'."

Qi Wenyuan spoke slowly, the pain in his heart almost made him forget the hatred and fear he felt when he learned about this.

Fortunately, he knew it.

He was afraid of losing her.

Now all he has to do is confirm his guess.

Wang Yuer immediately understood what this meant! No wonder! No wonder!

If this is true, then Aunt Xiaoyu's behavior is reasonable.

"Mr. Qi, I don't know why you are telling me this. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Wang Yuer stood up immediately after she finished speaking. She was going to tell Xiaoyu about this.

"Let's not talk about whether she will believe it or not. Do you want her to face all this alone?"

The voice behind her came slowly and Wang Yuer paused.
