Besides, in their line of work, how could they only have one case?
Thinking of this, Kang Xiaoqiao was relieved. However, she immediately asked, "Huihui, do you know who instigated those people? Have you heard about it from your family?"
When Cui Huihui heard this, she frowned and said, "I heard from my mother that these people are targeting you. Sister Kang, did you offend anyone?"
Kang Xiaoqiao bit her lower lip and said, "Offend? I've offended many people. However, to be able to find people to deal with me without making a sound, and to be able to plant spies in the ministry, knowing when I'm going out, and not being afraid of our identity, this person is very powerful."
"The problem is, I can't even come into contact with such people, so how can I offend them?"
When Cui Huihui heard this, it made sense. What kind of place was the ministry? Not to mention the ministry, just the government compound was not something that ordinary people could get their hands on. From the looks of it, this person was indeed powerful.
After that, Cui Huihui's eyes turned serious. She thought for a moment and said, "Sister Kang, do you think it could be that Zhao Yingying from the Ministry's Hospital?"
"After I came back, I helped you to inquire about her situation. Her father is the deputy director of the Military Organization Department here. She should know that you came to the provincial capital. She has both motive and ability to commit crimes."
"That person has long set her eyes on your family's Lu Yichen. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come all the way to your place to be a doctor. However, you intercepted he halfway. She must be holding a grudge. Maybe it's her?"
"I've asked my mother. She doesn't seem to know much about it. She didn't even let me ask. My uncle and the others negotiated with him and punished him directly. However, I can ask my cousin."
"However, I can't give him too much hope. His body isn't very good, so he doesn't enter that circle at all. His family won't tell him anything in order to not let him worry."
Kang Xiaoqiao frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Zhao Yingying, Zhao Yingying. I can't rule out that she's a suspect, but I still think it's not her."
"No matter how bold she is, she wouldn't dare to attack me so brazenly. Her father is from the Organization Department, and Lu Yichen's uncle is the head of the General Political Department. He happens to be in charge of their department. If she did it, there must be some movement from the department."
After saying that, Kang Xiaoqiao turned to look at Xia Yunshu and said, "Yunshu, how has the family courtyard been these few days? Did anything unusual happen?"
When Xia Yunshu heard that, she immediately said, "Aunty, I haven't heard anything about the family courtyard, but I know about the Zhao Yingying that you mentioned."
"She has a very good relationship with Aunt Qingzhu of second grandma's family. They are always together, and Zhao Yingying also comes home occasionally."
Eh?
As soon as Xia Yunshu said that, the two of them looked at her. However, Xia Yunshu frowned again and said, "She is very liked by great grandma. That person's words are very flattering, and she is cute and obedient. She is also very sensible. She is totally different from Aunt Qingzhu. I really don't know why they still have such a good relationship."
"However, it's also possible that she misses her little uncle. The girls in the family courtyard all like my little uncle very much."
...
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at Xia Yunshu and the corner of her mouth twitched. Meanwhile, Cui Huihui held her belly and laughed. "Sister Kang, haha, this is great. You have so many love rivals. This is not going to be easy, haha--"
Kang Xiaoqiao glared at them, cursing Lu Yichen in her heart. It's all because of this scourge, hmph.
A certain someone who was drinking immediately sneezed. Achoo! Who was scolding him?
At this moment, the handsome and polite young man sitting opposite Lu Yichen was Han Dafei, whom Kang Xiaoqiao had met the other day. At this moment, he smiled and said, "Could it be that sister-in-law is scolding you?"
Lu Yichen looked at him and drank a mouthful of wine without saying a word. The man across from him smiled and did not say a word. Then, he also drank a mouthful of wine.
The two of them ate a few more mouthfuls of side dishes. Then, Han Dafei said, "What do you plan to do?"
Lu Yichen's hand that was picking up the food paused for a moment. Then, his eyes were filled with frost as he picked up a peanut and kept chewing it in his mouth. After swallowing it, he said with a cold expression, "They are so arrogant. They really don't put me, Lu Yichen, in their eyes."
Then, he poured a small cup of wine into his mouth and threw the empty cup on the table. "A blood debt must be paid in blood."
When Han Dafei heard that, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. He filled another cup for Lu Yichen and said, "Don't be too hasty. You're still young. Bear with it for now."
Lu Yichen clenched his hands and said, "Bear with it? How long do you want me to bear with it? Do you know how dirty they are?"
"Not only do they want me to wear a green hat on my head, but they also want to make me a laughing stock and take Kang Xiaoqiao's life."
"This time, if I don't let them feel pain, how am I going to relieve the anger in my heart?"
When Han Dafei heard this, his eyes widened. "You've already made your move?"
Lu Yichen slowly picked up the wine cup and took a sip, while Han Dafei frowned. "You're taking too much of a risk. Do you know how much effort your grandfather put in to get you here? Why are you so impulsive?"
Lu Yichen did not say anything. Han Dafei sighed gloomily and said, "You... you..."
"It's a blessing to be at a disadvantage, but you don't have a bad temper."
"Last time, they plotted against you to get married. In the end, you forcefully swapped out their newly married wife. She's also extremely ugly, causing them to be unable to deny it even if they wanted to. She's already become the laughingstock of the capital."
"This time, don't tell me you're planning to give her a taste of her own medicine?"
Lu Yichen looked at the wine glass and said, "Why not?"
Han Dafei's expression suddenly changed. "You... you... you... Aiya... What do you want me to say about you?"
Lu Yichen continued to stare coldly at the wine glass and said, "There's no need to say anything. I, Lu Yichen, am not a coward. Endure it? I've endured it for too long. They should never have put their hands on Kang Xiaoqiao. Their crimes are unforgivable."
When Han Dafei heard that, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Yichen. "Brother, don't tell me you're really interested in her? Don't tell me you're really planning to spend the rest of your life with her?"
Lu Yichen remained silent. Han Dafei hurriedly said, "Hey, that person in the capital has been waiting for you. You, you, you--"
When Lu Yichen heard this, his expression changed. He poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. Han Dafei sighed again. His sighs today were equivalent to that of a year. He could not afford to be hurt by a brother who had more guts than the heavens.
Kang Xiaoqiao did not know this. She knew nothing about Lu Yichen's past. At this moment, she was trying her best to get Xia Yunshu to say something.
