Having resolved my father's troublesome matters, I returned home. Although Mother grumbled about Father quitting his job, she didn't blame him and continued to be a qualified housewife, going to cook for my father and me.
After dinner, it was nearly nine o'clock. I waited until my parents had retired to their bedroom to rest before I stealthily crept out of my room, picked up the phone in the living room, and made a call to Chen Lüping who was staying at the Sanjiangkou hotel.
"Hello! Aunt Ping, how are things going? There shouldn't be any problem on your end, right? When will the investigation team be arriving?" I asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry! Lin Feng, your aunt has rarely had such free time. I'm just watching TV and browsing the internet in the hotel, feeling quite good. If nothing unexpected happens, the investigation team should be here the day after tomorrow. Then, it will be doomsday for those corrupt bugs."
