Hearing Chen Jianmin's words, Shitou nodded and asked, "Brother Jianmin, can I bring them to visit Xiao Feng at Second Aunt Lu's house?"
"Of course," Chen Jianmin agreed readily.
"Yay! Thank you, Brother Jianmin!" Shitou cheered happily.
Seeing how happy her brother was, Li Shu smiled at Chen Jianmin and said, "Thank you, Jianmin."
"My sisters will be happy to have more friends too," Chen Jianmin replied.
As he looked at them smiling happily, Chen Jianmin was also delighted. If Shitou had a good relationship with his sisters, when their families became relatives, they would have a harmonious family.
After a few hours, Chen Jianmin had finished helping Li Shu wash the clothes and clean up the weeds in the garden. Before leaving, he divided the dishes into two portions and brought half back home.
At the same time in the county town, a man with his face wrapped up knocked on the door of a dilapidated house. Not long after, the door was opened and a man said, "You are here, come in."
Cai Bocheng quickly entered the house and asked, "How is the investigation?"
The man handed him an envelope and said, "Everything you want to know is here."
Taking the envelope, Cai Bocheng gave him a thick stack of money and turned to leave.
But before he left, the man warned him, "You should be careful. When I investigated this person, I found out that someone was also investigating you."
The moment he heard this, Cai Bocheng frowned, but he said nothing and left without looking back. After he left, another man walked out from the back room and looked at the closed door thoughtfully.
"Sir, I have done what you asked me to do. Can you let me go now?" the man asked.
He Xieyu glanced at the man and said, "Don't worry, your name won't be included in the next operation. But you can't go yet. I still need you to do another thing for me."
The man hesitated for a while before he gritted his teeth and asked, "Sir, please tell me what you want me to do."
Nodding at his wise decision, He Xieyu leaned closer to him and whispered something. The moment the man heard this, his eyes widened and he refused instantly, "I can't do that!"
Raising his eyebrows, He Xieyu looked at the man and asked with a smile, "Are you sure you want to refuse?"
The man looked at the gentle man in front of him and felt that he was much more dangerous than Cai Bocheng. No matter how ruthless and resourceful Cai Bocheng was, he couldn't be compared to this person.
All of his weaknesses and evidence against him were in this person's hands. If Cai Bocheng took revenge, at most he would lose his own life. But if this man handed the evidence to the government, even his family would be implicated!
