Liu Changhe had been in an exceptionally good mood these past few days. Hearing that Jiang Xiaobai had been arrested and might not be able to return had him so delighted that he actually bought a 10,000-firework firecracker to set off outside his front door, even though it wasn't a holiday.
When the two met at Nanwan Lake early in the morning, Liu Changhe could hardly believe his eyes and thought he must have recognized the wrong person, so he quickly rubbed his eyes.
He had used his connections to inquire about Jiang Xiaobai's situation, and he was told there was no hope of him getting out, since he had offended some big shot. This made Liu Changhe happier than he had been on his wedding day, but how could he have imagined that Jiang Xiaobai would appear alive and well before his eyes.
"Well, well, if it isn't the village chief? Haven't seen you in a few days, you don't seem to look too spirited," Jiang Xiaobai said.
