  "Yes, Director Lu. We've been to the local police station and inquired about it, but there's no record of the Wen family reporting a case to the local police station. Now, whether this child is dead or alive, it's not clear." Yao Ziye reported to Director Lu while his narrow eyes glanced towards the direction where Lu Jun was facing with his back turned.

  Half of your face is shrouded in twilight mist, and your cold eyebrows emit a chilling aura that's even more intense than usual.

  Lu Shangyuan, who was far away at the foot of Tianzi Mountain, listened to Yao Ziyi's report and could imagine that it wasn't his own son on the phone now, but rather someone else who was throwing a tantrum. He let out a sigh and said to Yao Ziyi, "Ziyi, thank you so much. If you hadn't accompanied Lu Jun, I'm afraid I would have had to make a trip down south myself by now."

  "Mr. Lu, you're being too polite. Nangnang's affairs are just like my own sister's affairs. Moreover, even if I'm not around, Secretary Liu is here, and Mr. Lu will only keep his anger to himself, handling matters in an orderly manner, and absolutely won't let emotional issues affect official business. You're clearer about this than I am, Uncle Lu." Yao Ziyi spoke slowly and calmly, her slender and beautiful eyes carefully polishing the light.

  This old friend's son, like the old friend, has a gentle temperament and is reliable. More importantly, when doing things, he will not be ruthless and absolute like his son, but rather tactful and considerate in all aspects.

  Lu's heartfelt smile seemed to transmit over the phone, and after reminding him of two more things, he hung up.

  It just so happens that the municipal government leadership team is having a meeting tonight and I'm working overtime.

  Secretary Yao picked up the things on the table, saw old friend Lu Shuai and his own son finish the phone call, one side was smiling and the other side was frowning, curiously asked: "What? Did they encounter something interesting when they went south?"

  "Why didn't you ask them if they've encountered any trouble?" Commander Lu found his old friend's question strange.

  Normally when a son calls home, it's because something has happened and he needs to report it.

  "My son doesn't say, can stump your son's affairs, I don't think so." Just like Commander Lu praised Secretary Yao's son Yao Ziyu highly, Secretary Yao praised his old friend Commander Lu's son Comrade Lu Jun even more.

  Now everyone in the big courtyard knows that it's not possible to provoke Young Master, provoking him is like provoking the Emperor himself.

  "You're wrong." Commander Lu heard this and became pleased, stretching out his finger to point at him, "It's really something that has put my son in a difficult position."

  "Tell us," Secretary Yao eagerly invited his old friend to tell a story.

  Lu pulled a chair to the front of Secretary Yao's desk, tapping his fingers on the desktop while shaking his head, and recounted the story that Yao Ziye had told him.

  Secretary Yao, with his hands clasped under his chin, had been listening with great interest to the two children's investigation in the countryside. But as he heard the truth revealed bit by bit, his thin face gradually turned stern: "This matter..."

  "My son said that he would never sympathize with this person!" Commander Lu slapped his thigh, and a deep color appeared between his two thick eyebrows.

  "How about you? What do you think?"

  Young people's ideas are often slightly radical, unlike the middle-aged people of this generation who have experienced great storms and waves. They have already passed that passionate era and tend to understand and sympathize with human emotions and worldly affairs. However, it is not to say that they can tolerate evil forces.

  "You know that. The man who raised Mengmeng, taught her so well, I have some resentment towards him, just like my own son. But thinking about all the things he's done for Mengmeng over the years, on the other hand, I'm a little grateful to him." Lu Siling said, his voice was difficult to speak, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, as a father, he could understand some of Wen Shixuan's feelings towards Mengmeng, but now that the truth has been revealed, his son can't accept this reality, and neither can he. "But you say, how come this man is so unambitious!"

  Boom!

  That palm slammed onto the table, causing the desk to shake violently, unable to suppress the raging fire in his heart.

  "If I had a mother like that, I would have killed her long ago! Even tigers don't eat their own cubs, what kind of person is she?"

  At this moment, Lu's commander suddenly opened his tiger eyes like a machine gun, wanting to hang up and beat the old witch of the Wen family, Old Lady Wen.

  Secretary Yao saw the situation, hastily stood up, poured a glass of water for his old comrade to calm down the fire, and pressed on his old comrade's trembling shoulder: "This is other people's family affairs, we as parents have no way to intervene."

  "So, his old mother deserves a beating, and he himself also deserves a beating. There's nothing more detestable than foolish loyalty and foolish filial piety." He took the tea from his old comrade and gulped it down in one mouthful, slamming the cup heavily onto the table.

  "Hey, you're angry, but don't smash the cup in my office." Secretary Yao tried to divert the topic and calm him down. However, his long eyebrows were scrunched up like his son's, forming a knot.

  Wen Shi Xuan is indeed a big problem.

  You say he's pitiful, really pitiful. His daughter was taken away by his old mother, what can he do as a son? Should he strangle his old mother to death and bury her with his daughter?

  You say he's despicable, really despicable. Such an old mother, he can tolerate her and still be filial to this day, not forgetting to teach his children to be filial to the elderly.

  You say he's hateful, really hateful. He knows the pain of losing a child, the pain of losing flesh and blood. He raised Manman until today, but didn't think about finding Manman's relatives? Think about the suffering of Lu's family who lost their daughter?

  The first two points, Wen Shixuan's despicability is beyond doubt. The last point, whether Wen Shixuan has ever looked for Manman's relatives, is worth further investigation.

  Secretary Yao, holding his chin, patted Commander Lu's shoulder and said: "Unfortunately, we can't get away from here to go south. However, I think Wen Shi-xuan will eventually return to Beijing. It's not hard for us to ask, rather than the two young people finding it difficult to open their mouths."

  "Now that his mother is ill like this, will he come back to Beijing?" The words were spoken, but Commander Lu had a feeling, as if his daughter would return to his side in the midst of all things, and these people would all come before him.

  ……

  Lin Wencai stood at the door of the ward and was stunned when he heard Old Lady Wen say that Wanwan wasn't a biological child of the Wen family.

  Next, Wen Huan, who was standing in front of him, suddenly bit her fingernail and spat out: "It's really Grandma who killed my sister."

  This sentence shocked him more than Grandma Wen's previous one!

  He just wanted to scold Wen Huan: How can you talk nonsense like this?

  Grandma Wen doesn't like Manman because Manman isn't her biological child, which is understandable.

  Below, Wen Shixuan, with the face that his mother had spat on, suddenly said to his mother: "Mom, why don't you think about what you did in the past? I'm so good to Manman because of what you did to my daughter!"

  Old Lady Wen gazed at her eldest son with a pair of dull, expressionless eyes: "What's the big deal about losing a daughter? If your wife had given birth to a son, I would have treasured him like a precious gem."

  Lin Wencai's mind went completely blank on the spot.

  When Wen Xuan heard Wen Huan call out "Dad" as she walked into the ward, he suddenly woke up with a start, quickly got out of bed and ran swiftly to the hospital entrance. He leaned against his knees, lifted his head and gazed at the sky, seeing that it was late in the day. The mood in his heart was just like the sky - gloomy and overcast.

  Suddenly hearing some information that is not what you imagined, whoever it is, will be a blow to your mood.

  Dazed and confused, really dazed and confused, can't even tell the directions, forgot to pick up the bike at the parking lot, just wandering aimlessly along the street.

  He mourns the death of his wife and wonders how his mother-in-law, who was so dear to her before she passed away, could be such a person. If his wife were still alive, she would probably die of anger and regret.

  How can an old man be so heartless as to abandon his own granddaughter?

  Thinking of Wen Shi Xuan, he sighed and said: "Wen Shi Xuan, this filial son, can be so filial to this extent, no one has ever been able to surpass him in the past or will be able to in the future. Lin Wen Cai only has the share of admiration."

  If Lin Wenchang had a mother like that, we couldn't kill her or sue her to apologize to our daughter, could we just not have any dealings with her for the rest of our lives?

  Now I think about it, the most extreme thing in the Wen family is not those greedy and profiteering people, but Wen Shi Xuan!

  It's really infuriating to the point of making one's blood boil.

  The most pitiful ones are probably Xu Yujiao and Manman.

  Xu Yujiao probably still doesn't know to this day that her own eldest daughter was switched with a stray cat.

  Wen Shixuan is afraid of his wife and works hard for her, perhaps there are some factors at play here.

  Manman, Manman is not a child of the Wen family, whose child will she be?

  Ding ding ding.

  The phone was in the pocket, it had gotten dark at night, walked to this small road with few streetlights, fumbled for a long time before taking it out, took a look and found it was an unfamiliar number from another place, didn't think much, just answered it.

  "Is this Xiao Jiu's husband? I'm Manman, I just got your phone number from Ershu."

  The soft and fluffy characteristic voice of my elder cousin came from the phone, and I knew it at once.

  But is it a big nephew girl?

  Lin Wencai touched his chest and thought for a moment: it was not his niece's fault. Even if Manman was not the biological child of Wen Shixuan, in his and his late wife's hearts, she was a lovable child, and had been his niece all her life.

  Smiling, she said: "It's me, Manman."

  "Is my uncle in the hospital now? Should my husband and I go to the hospital to pick him up, or should we arrange a meeting point?" Manman mentioned her father, Wen Shi Xuan, wherever she went. "I originally made an appointment with my dad, but he said it wasn't necessary, as he wanted to accompany his mother. I thought about finishing dinner and then going to take over his shift."

  "Lin Wencai heard the secret, and this time he couldn't let his big niece go to accompany the old witch who hated Linlin. 'Let's go out for dinner first, your uncle has something to say to you.'"

  In the hotel room, Manman listened to Xiaojun's tone and felt that something was off, it didn't seem quite right compared to this afternoon. She blinked her crescent moon-shaped eyes and said: "Oh, okay."

  They agreed to meet at the hotel entrance, as Lin Wencai asked a passerby and found that where he was wasn't far from their hotel.

  Arriving at the luxurious five-star hotel, Lin Wencai raised his head and gazed up at the magnificent lighting decorations in the lobby. As he waited for his nephew and niece to emerge from the elevator, he adjusted his glasses and said, "It seems I overestimated myself earlier."

  Jiang Dashao and Manman laughed together.

  Leaning on his brother-in-law's shoulder, Jiang Dashao said with a sly glint in his eyes: "Brother-in-law, I think it's my turn to treat you to dinner tonight?"

  "Go ahead, you're welcome." Lin Wencai was quite straightforward about it, not bothering to keep track of favors at all.

  Three people walked into the northeastern restaurant across the street.

  Although there is a restaurant in the hotel, most of the dishes are Southern cuisine. Considering his nephew-in-law from the North, Lin Wencai took the initiative to go and eat Northern cuisine.

  Towards this young lady, Chiang Dazhuo felt more and more satisfied everywhere, intending to make friends, and asked the waiter who usually took orders for a bottle of wine.

  "I can't drink, I have to go to work tomorrow." Lin Wencai waved his hand and said to Jiang Dashao, "Don't be fooled, my alcohol tolerance is not good, even my niece knows this, ask Manman."

  Manman was delighted that her husband had finally gained recognition from his in-laws, and a small dimple appeared at the corner of her mouth as she smiled and said: "A Yan, my younger brother-in-law can't drink alcohol, but he's quite particular about drinking tea."

  "Oh?" said to the waiter that we didn't want wine anymore, and ordered a good Pu'er tea. Comrade Jiang Yan picked up the teapot and poured water for Xiao Jiu's husband, "Drinking tea, I really don't understand it. It seems that northerners are not as particular about drinking tea as southerners. I only know that Longjing is the most famous."

  "One side of the water nourishes one side of the people. Northerners love to drink wine, because the north is cold and wine can warm the body. Southerners love to drink tea, because the south is hot and tea can quench thirst. Of course, now both wine and tea are available in both the north and the south, without distinction. Take Pu'er tea for example, when the price is high, many northern buyers will compromise. Lin Wencai said this much to Jiang Dashao, clearly intentionally trying to win him over."

  Xiao Gu Zhang's point was understood by Comrade Jiang Yan.

  She saw the two men coming and going, seemingly chatting happily, without being able to discern any other underlying meaning.

  When Lin Wencai went to the bathroom, he pulled down his glasses and whispered to Jiang Yan: "Later when she comes back, you tell her not to go to the hospital with her grandmother. Her father and mother are calling, don't let her go."

  This remark was exactly what Jiang Dashao wanted to hear, but since it was Lin Wencai who brought it up, the question is, didn't Lin Wencai just visit Madame Wen? He seemed quite filial towards her, so why would he say this? Suspicion arose, and Yingmei's eyebrows furrowed in deep thought. Jiang Yan took advantage of his daughter-in-law not being back yet to have a heart-to-heart with Xiao Jiu Zhang: "Not hiding it from you, Xiao Jiu Zhang, this afternoon when I went to visit Madame Wen with Manman, we both discovered that the old lady didn't like Manman. But my father-in-law insisted on telling Manman that she was Grandma's favorite."

  "Is that so?" Lin Wencai's fingertips pressed on the desktop, his head lowered in thought as he pondered Wen Shi Xuan's intentions.

  It's probably because Wen Shixuan is afraid that the dirty things his mother did in the past will be exposed, and if he lets Manman and Grandma Wen have a good relationship, no one will investigate the dirty things Grandma Wen did.

  "Little brother-in-law, do you know if there's any special reason behind this?" asked Comrade Jiang Yan, his shining eyes scanning Lin Wencai's every move.

  Wen's grandma did, Lin Wencai thought of his late wife, it was impossible to tell outsiders, after all, Manman was no longer a member of the Wen family, and Manman's husband Jiang Dashao was not either.

  "In fact, grandma is ill and has mood swings, becoming different from before. I think it's not suitable for Manman to take care of grandma who is emotional. Besides, grandma has two daughters-in-law and two daughters, and Manman is not in the line." Lin Wencai thought, avoiding the sensitive topic.

  Although Xiao Shu's husband was tight-lipped, it could be seen that he loved his wife, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to say these reminders. Jiang Dashao put down the water kettle in his hand and raised his head to see that his wife had come back.

  Manman walked to the staircase entrance, her eyes inadvertently looked down and happened to see two men walking up the stairs with their heads lowered.

  The crescent moon shines brightly in her eyes, and her slender eyebrows are slightly raised.

  These two men with such demeanor, one with a tired icy face and the other with a handsome face, were both unprecedented for her.

  Just as the two men were about to turn the corner of the stairs, she flew back to her own position without being detected.

  Lin Wencai sat in his seat, watching his niece walk over and sit down, and the suspicious thoughts that had been turning in his mind were: Mengmeng is not a child of the Wen family, whose child is she? Where did Wen Shixuan get this child from?

  What about Manman's biological parents?

  He picked up his glasses and carefully observed Manman's slightly pointed thin face, and without the big glasses, Manman might be even more beautiful than he had imagined.

  The slender is slender, but these five officials are not completely mediocre.

  Especially those eyes, double eyelids, eyelashes dense like a brush, eyebrows long and stylish.

  Small nose.

  The soft and mellow sound makes people feel comfortable when listening to it.

  The whole temperament, in every move, there is a kind of dignified and peaceful elegance, with another kind of noble aura.

  Lin Wencai was getting more and more anxious: no matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like the kind of thing Wen's family or Xu Yuer would do. Why hadn't he and his wife noticed this before?

  All I can say is that Manman is very good at hiding herself, completely concealed behind those ugly big glasses.

  "Little brother-in-law." When the waiter served the dishes, he gave a piece of goulash meat to the little brother-in-law who seemed to be thinking about something. Man man reminded him, "Your phone is ringing."

  Came back to senses, stretched hand into pocket to take out phone, accidentally dropped it, and it fell to the ground with a thud.

  Attracting the attention of several customers.

  Manman hastily turned her face inward. Her eyes saw that the two men who had originally not discovered them walking in another direction were now looking over, following the sound.

  Her eyebrows rose slightly.

  Yao Ziye grabbed Secretary Liu and asked: "Don't you know they're having dinner here?"

  "Somebody told me they went out for dinner, saying nothing happened, so I didn't ask where they had dinner." Secretary Liu wiped away cold sweat, admitting it was his own negligence at work.

  Two men remained expressionless.

  Secretary Liu frowned and asked: "Should we go find a table over there?"

  "It's fine." Master Jun's cold eyes swept to the corner of the table and said, "Just over there."

  The table at the corner, with a sharp angle of view, has a potted landscape covering half of it. They want to see the vines, but they only need to stretch their necks and lengthen their eye lines slightly. The vines want to see them on this side completely, but it's difficult.

  Watching the two men walk towards that place, Manman inadvertently ground her teeth between her words.

  You said she was guilty of what crime, and these two guys were like ghosts that wouldn't leave her alone.

  It's not about liking or disliking them, but every time I run into these two guys, I always feel like something bad is going to happen.

  Fine eyebrows twisted into a small cluster, like sharp bean sprouts.

  Lin Wencai, who bent down to pick up his phone, didn't notice anything else around him and was completely focused on the voice in his ear.

  "Little uncle, I'm Yanyan. I heard from second uncle that you came to visit grandma, but why did you walk up to the door of her sickroom and leave without going in?"

  Suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

  It turned out that this little niece didn't know he was following her, but she did it on purpose and let him follow.

  "Just in time, something came up at the office, so I left." Lin Wencai's eyebrows were tightly furrowed as he pondered Wen Huan's sinister intentions.

  What does Wenjuan want to do?

  Now knowing that Manman is not her own sister, does she want to make a scene or...?

  "Little brother-in-law, I'm guessing you're with Manman now?" Wen Huan's voice on the phone was moderate, neither loud nor soft, and didn't reveal any emotions. "I know you've always been very fond of Manman."

  "Wanyuan, you are all my nieces, I don't dislike any of you." Lin Wencai said.

  "Really? Then when I take the university entrance exam, will you give me money for tuition like you did for Mianmian's sister back then?"

  "It's okay, as long as you can get into college." Lin Wencai did things with the intention of doing them properly and was not afraid of what others would say. "I promised your late aunt that if there were children in our family who could get into college but couldn't afford the tuition, your uncle would help out."

  Wen Yuan was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, as if she hadn't expected Lin Wenchao to say that.

  "Wanyuan, Lin Wencai said in a soft and gentle tone, "No matter what, you and Jiajing are only half-grown adults. Some things don't need to be thought about like an adult."

  Ran Wenjuan was frowning on the other end of the phone, not believing Lin Wenchang's words at all.

  One thing she was very clear about was that adults were all biased. Like her mom, who was biased towards her. Like her dad, who was biased against her.

  Lin Wencai was determined that Manman was better than her, and would only favor Manman. This is called being biased from the start. No matter how well Yanyan did, she was always one beat behind, and couldn't squeeze in.

  But it doesn't matter, Lin Wen is not the only elder in this world.

  "Little uncle, will you tell Mianmian what you heard this afternoon?"

  He actually dared to bring up this matter in front of him.

  Lin Wencai couldn't tell for a moment whether Wen Huan's question was an innocent and childlike inquiry or had an ulterior motive. Anyway, this kid with too many mischievous thoughts in his mind really wasn't likable.

  "These things belong to your family and are none of my business."

  As expected, I won't say it.

  She curled up a section of her hair and looked at the ceiling: Manman was not her biological sister, whose child was Manman? She seemed to be able to guess that answer. What puzzled her was that the Lu family had never said anything about it, did that mean they didn't want Manman? But it seemed impossible, wasn't Wen Haosheng saying that Junye loved his little sister very much? Or, was Manman not a child of the Lu family?

  Is Manman really the child of the Lu family?

  This answer might be known only to the Lu family, or perhaps just his own father.

  Grandma, do you know?

  "Little uncle, I'll tell you, do you want to know whose child Mangmang's sister is?"

  "You know!" Lin Wencai's voice rose slightly.

  "No, I don't know, but I think if you ask your uncle, my dad might know."

  "Alright, alright." Lin Wen thought for a while, still feeling hesitant. He didn't like the child that much anymore, but after all, she was his brother's biological daughter and he couldn't just ignore her. "You listen to your uncle, these things, you as a child, don't get involved. Let your father handle it."

  "How to solve it? Let my dad go help Manman sister find her family? If my dad had the heart to find, he would have gone to find long ago. Either my dad doesn't want to find or my dad can't find. Can we hide this from Manman sister for a lifetime? Is that fair to Manman sister? Doesn't Manman sister have the right to know the truth?"

  These words have touched Lin Wencai's entangled heart, on one side is Manman, and on the other side is Wenxi Xuan.

  Mān Mān has the right to know the truth, but it should be up to Wēn Shìxuān to decide whether or not to tell Mān Mān, since Wēn Shìxuān is the one who raised Mān Mān. If someone else were to say something, they might directly harm the emotions and trust between Wēn Shìxuān and Mān Mān.

  "Wanyan, if you really care about your father, then pretend that you haven't heard anything and keep it all hidden in your heart." Lin Wencai said with a serious tone, adding a hint of stern warning to his voice.

  In his heart, he was anxious and uneasy: this cunning little niece, would she listen to his words? There was no guarantee.

  Unexpectedly, Wen Huan suddenly replied to him in a clever tone: "I know, Brother-in-law. Don't worry, as long as you don't say a word, I won't either." Before hanging up the phone, she added: "By the way, Brother-in-law, whatever you do, don't let my sister get close to my grandmother. My grandmother is a man-eater. You heard her this afternoon."

  Bang, the phone hung up.

  Lin Wencai stared at his phone, somewhat bewildered: he had no idea what was going on in Wen Huan's mind.

  Logically speaking, upon learning that one's sister is not one's biological sister, it is normal for emotions to fluctuate and be abnormal.

  Wen Yu's calm and peaceful words were like a gentle stream that flowed smoothly.

  Could it be that Wen Huan really treated Manman as her own sister regardless of whether they were biological sisters or not?

  How could I forget, these two sisters have such a good relationship?

  Lin Wencai stood in the aisle, his face heavy with worry as he spoke softly on his phone. Manman and Jiang Yan comrades both noticed him, their cold, thoughtful gazes also circling around this new stranger.

  Liu Secretary whispered to the two men: "He is the husband of Wen Shixuan's youngest deceased sister, and has always been very good to Miss Nannan."

  "Judging from the situation, this person might know something." With a slight raise of his slender eyebrows, Mr. Yao's beautifully arched fingers supported his chin, and his finely ground eyes fell on Lin Wencai.

  "If you really know something, you should be called in for questioning." Master Jun has always been someone who doesn't do things halfway, and is even capable of killing people to silence them.

  Liu's secretary received the order and knew what to do next.

  Lin Wencai returned to his seat with a lot on his mind.

  Manman poured a new cup of hot tea for Xiao Jiu and asked: "Xiao Jiu, whose phone call was it? Is anything the matter?"

  She wondered if something had happened at the hospital where Nurse Wen lived?

  "No, it's a friend who called and wants to borrow some money from me." Lin Wencai casually made up an excuse and changed the subject, saying "Look, the dishes are getting cold, let's eat quickly."

  This meal, even if Manman and Jiang Yan comrades deliberately warmed up the atmosphere, it can be seen that Lin Wencai had a heartache and couldn't eat happily.

  After dinner, Lin Wencai left, and Manman was still thinking about whether she should go back and see her father.

  Lin Wencai's face turned stern as he said to her, "Mangmang, I'm telling you the truth. This afternoon, your uncle went to the hospital room and heard it from the old lady herself that she doesn't like you and doesn't want you to take care of her. Otherwise, your dad wouldn't have called you to come to the hospital to help."

  Manman was taken aback, although she knew that she had never been liked by her grandmother just like the other girls in the family, but it didn't seem like something her grandmother would say out loud.

  Seeing his niece's disbelief, Lin Wencai continued: "Your grandmother said this to your father in private. Your uncle-in-law overheard it."

  "Little aunt's husband, you towards grandma——" Now Mianmian is suspicious of Lin Wencai's attitude.

  She put on her glasses, and now Manman is no longer the child of the Wen family. Manman can be unfilial to such a grandmother. Lin Wencai frankly said: "Manman, your grandmother is not a good person. The superfluous words will not be said by Xiao Jiu, but Xiao Jiu thinks that if an elder is unkind, you don't need to get close to them."

  "Man man, now even your uncle is saying this, you won't really be stupid enough to go and kiss your grandmother's cold face with a hot butt, right?" Jiang Dashao chimed in from the side, of course saying whatever it takes to not let his wife suffer in front of her mother-in-law.

  Manman only listened to their conversation, neither saying it was good nor bad, her delicate eyebrows slightly raised and her lips slightly pursed.

  After Lin Wencai left, Comrade Jiang Yan wanted to pull his daughter-in-law back to the hotel, but she stood still on the ground as if her feet were rooted.

  "Vines?"

  "A Yan, I've made up my mind."

  "What are you thinking?" Jiang Dashao asked his wife with a nervous heart.

  "I have something to ask Grandma." The crescent-shaped eyes behind her glasses shone with an unshakeable light.

  The words were overheard by two old men who came out from behind.

  ……

  After being spat on by the old man, Wen Shixuan still didn't forget. He waited until his mother fell asleep before quietly getting up to find something to eat.

  A three-person ward, with a curtain separating the two beds. All the patients in this room were stroke victims who couldn't speak or move. It seemed that the other two patients and their caregivers were all asleep.

  A faint sound of footsteps walked into the innermost part of the room, to Grandma Wen's sickbed.

  Old Lady Wen, who was awakened by the footsteps, opened her eyes and saw the person in front of her. Her eyes widened: You...

  "Grandma, you really killed my sister." Wen Huan lowered her head, as if afraid that the old lady wouldn't be able to hear clearly, and slowly opened her lips in front of the old lady's eyes, saying silently.

  Old Lady Wen gasped for breath, her mouth open, and scolded: "Little demon!"

  "I'm your own granddaughter, do you want to kill me too?" Raising her slender eyebrows, Wen Xuan's mouth curved into a smile, "Grandma, think about it, if you really kill me, won't that be doing my dad's adopted daughter a favor?"

  "What exactly do you want to say?" Grandma Wen's fierce eyes stared at her.

  "Grandma, don't be like this, I'll be scared if you are," said Wen Huan.

  "Are you afraid? You're still going to make that call to me, you wicked witch!" Grandma Wen's chest heaved violently, rising and falling rapidly.

  "Grandma, you're really strange. Just because I said one sentence that you killed my own sister, and now you're ill. Grandma, you've done so many bad things, are you afraid of this little thing?" Wen Huan said slowly, not at all urgent, her eyes coldly staring at the old man in front of her who was getting anxious instead.

  It can be seen that Grandma Wen is afraid of death, so she is very afraid that things will be exposed and she will have to go to prison. At her old age, it's likely that she will die in prison.

  "Grandma, didn't you ask me to beg my dad not to say anything? But now, grandma is scolding and beating my dad, spitting at him... Grandma, what do you really want?"

  "Grandma's face suddenly fell: 'You, how did you know?'"

  "I heard what you said to my dad this afternoon."

  Old Lady Wen's asthma was acting up again, and she panted desperately: "You wicked creature, what exactly do you want?"

  "It's nothing, I also feel sorry for grandma." The lips that had been lowered whispered softly in the old man's ear, "Grandma, you've done so much, but have you ever thought that because you lost or killed my sister, the adopted daughter my dad brought back, not only married a high-ranking official, but her true identity is actually the mayor's daughter."

  Grandma Wen's eyes slowly rolled back onto her face, and the majestic glow that was uniquely hers gradually weakened and drooped.

  "Grandma, everything I said is true. So, in the future, one day, this adopted granddaughter of yours will become so high and mighty that she'll trample all your descendants under her feet, including your son and your most beloved grandson. All your children can only go beg to this adopted granddaughter. What's more, this adopted granddaughter has the deepest affection for my dad, if she finds out what you did to him, do you think she'll let you off? Her father is a high-ranking official, what will he do to you?"

  It seems that I can feel the biting cold wind blowing from the prison, and I can feel the rope tightening around my neck, as if the judge who sentenced me to death is about to behead me with his knife or shoot me in the chest.

  Grandma Wen's temper is such that whatever comes out can't go back in.

  Seeing the old lady's face turn even whiter and greener, like a dead person, her voice became urgent: "Grandma, quickly tell me, where is that jade pendant? And my own sister, is she dead or lost, can she be found?"

  The old man couldn't hear anything, his soul had left his body and was floating upwards, scared by the prison, knife, and gun, it's better to die like this than to die in prison without anyone to see him off.

  As for that child, she knows it, even if she doesn't make things difficult, there will still be people who will continue to make things difficult for her.

  So, stretch out one finger.

  When visiting an elderly person's home, Wen Huan immediately handed over her palm.

  The old man nodded after drawing some strokes in her palm.

  Knitting his brow, he covered his face with his hat and mask, turned around and quickly walked out of the ward.

  As she watched Wen Yu's rapidly retreating back, Grandma Wen closed her eyes with a hint of a cold and gloomy smile at the corner of her mouth.

  ……

  Jiang Dashao accompanied his daughter-in-law back to see her elderly parents, holding her hand all the way. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Mianmian, remember what I told you, no matter what happens, don't forget that I'm by your side."

  "A Yan." The little wife's face showed a hint of helplessness and amusement, "Don't think I'm someone who can be easily bullied."

  "I'm not afraid of you being bullied." Comrade Jiang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a profound gaze.

  "I know you're worried I'll be disappointed." Manman's little wife thought her husband still didn't quite understand her, so she raised an eyebrow and started telling him about her past achievements. "Let me tell you, Ah Yan, when I took the college entrance exam, my grades were always top-notch in high school, but because I had a fever during the exam and performed poorly, I missed out on a prestigious university. But after thinking about it for a night, I came to a realization - it was fate, and that's okay. People say that when God closes one window, he opens another. Think about it, if I hadn't done poorly on the college entrance exam, would I have met friends like Chu Xia and Shi Ge?"

  "It seems that nothing will ever happen to you." Jiang Dashao said with a raised tone, but in fact, he was still worried.

  "My mom was like that to me, the blow should be deep enough. But you see, next I have you, my dad, a good father-in-law and second sister, and also Xiaodongzi, what can I complain about?"

  Listening to my daughter-in-law talk like this, she is indeed fearless and composed in the face of great storms.

  Comrade Jiang Yan couldn't help but lower his head and steal a kiss on his wife's face.

  She looked around hastily and saw no one nearby. She pinched her husband's arm: "What are you doing? This is a public place."

  "I'm kissing my wife, it's heaven's will and earth's principle, the police can't arrest me." Comrade Jiang Yantong innocently held his wife's hand and said, "I just thought back to the first day we met, what was it about you that attracted me?"

  "Aren't you just taking advantage of me being a cook?" Moonlight's eyes narrowed slightly, and she smiled faintly.

  "Who says that? I won't marry you even if you can't cook." Comrade Jiang Yun patted his chest, "I like you as a person, not whether or not you can cook for me or do my laundry. I can even wash socks cleaner than you."

  Meng Meng: Ah! Speaking of which, my husband's skill in washing socks is probably trained in the army, and he can actually make a pair of white socks whiter than new. It makes me speechless. As long as my husband is at home, all the household chores are taken care of by him.

  Chiang Da Shao said: This is my pride!

  Then, I thought of Jun Ye's neat and upright collar again. In early summer, it was said that this was a skill that Jun Ye had ironed out for himself.

  The troops are indeed a place where people can be trained.

  Sighs of regret.

  Two people walked out of the elevator and had just arrived at the corridor when they saw many doctors and nurses going in and out of Grandma Wen's ward, and couldn't help but look at each other in dismay.

  Taking two quick steps forward, Young Master Jiang caught hold of a doctor and asked: What's going on?

  "The patient suddenly passed away. Are you a family member of the patient? Please be prepared psychologically."

  Hearing this,

  Boom!

  A box of take-out food fell from Wen Shixuan's hand as he just walked into the ward.

  "Dad!"

  Creeping horror.

  ……

  Two old men just returned to the hotel, Jun Ye pacing back and forth in the hotel room, anyone can see that he is hesitant about whether or not to go to the hospital to check on the situation.

  Yao Ye looked at him, and he was also hesitant.

  Liu Secretary received an urgent telegram at this time and said to Master Yao: "It says that the old man in the hospital is no longer doing well."

  "What?" The two grandfathers were equally shocked.

  The old man's condition is not serious at all, unless something unexpected happens.

  "Who's in charge of surveillance in the hospital?! What did they say?!" Cold eyes shot out two sharp glints.

  The person watching Wen Shi Xuan left the ward for a while, because he thought something was wrong with Wen Shi Xuan and was afraid that he would do something. The old man was sleeping in the ward, and there were caregivers by his bedside next door, so Liu Secretary thought - the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was really one coincidence after another.

  "This old lady doesn't know what's going on." Yao Ziye thought positively, if Wen Nainai died, it would be a good thing for Manman, because she wouldn't have to be dragged down.

  However, Master Jun's cold fingertips rubbed against his chin and said, "Make a phone call to the hospital to ask about the situation and see if we can save the old man."

  "This..." Secretary Liu hesitated.

  "Do you think it would be a good thing if she didn't die as planned?"

  One sentence woke everyone else up.

  This can only prove that there are evil spirits at work, and no matter who is behind it, it will not be a good thing for them.
