Fast Travel: The Hundred-Life Couple

Chapter 103: Real Gold, Not Cannon Fodder

He looked at Luo Dongxu and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. You must seek truth from facts, be impartial, and put evidence first. Don't make subjective assumptions!"

Luo Dongxu smiled triumphantly, then quickly saluted seriously: "Yes!"

-

Ye Xiaoli returned home and found that his door had not been pried open, but after pushing the door open, he found a male footprint on the incense ash. It was not Li Anguo's, but Li Anjian's.

Haha, it’s Li Anjian as expected, he and the heroine cooperate very well, they are a perfect match!

Ye Xiaoli closed the door and hurried to see Section Chief Fang. When Section Chief Fang heard that there were footprints of a strange man in Ye Xiaoli's house, he thought to himself, how could this be tolerated?

Luo Dongxu was immediately asked to disguise himself as a soldier, carry a camera for evidence collection, and go to Ye Xiaoli's house to take photos as evidence.

Sneaking into a battalion commander's house, the owner of the shoe prints really looks like a spy.

If you're lucky, you can pinpoint the suspect to a certain area by looking at the shoe pattern on the footprint. By simulating the depth and size of the shoe print, you can estimate the suspect's height, weight, and overall appearance.

After taking the photos, Luo Dongxu was reluctant to leave.

He pinched the brim of his hat and grinned, revealing his big white teeth. "Ye Xiaoli, now you know I'm not a hooligan, right? That day you beat me up without any explanation. Judge for yourself, wasn't I wronged?"

Ye Xiaoli avoided her gaze. Naturally, when she came out of the security department, she found Luo Dongxu sitting there slacking off, and was shocked to realize that she had wronged him a few days ago.

But she was embarrassed to mention it and wanted to get away with it.

Who knew that the victim would reveal it first, so she had to think of a way to make some compensation to him.

But before she could think it through, Luo Dongxu asked, "If Li Anguo really wanted to murder you, what would you do?"

Ye Xiaoli touched his nose uncomfortably: "I have already filed for divorce with him. After the divorce, I will move out of here and find a way to make a living and become independent."

"Filed for divorce?" Luo Dongxu's eyes lit up. "Then after you finish the paperwork, do you want to establish a revolutionary friendship with me? I'm more handsome than Li Anguo, more outstanding than Li Anjian, and my biological father has a higher position than both Li Anguo's and your father.

If you marry me in the future, you can completely surpass your family's Ye Bailian who has usurped your position."

Ye Xiaoli's face was stern: "Who do you think I am? Am I the kind of person you think I am, someone who can just marry anyone just to surpass Ye Bailian?"

"I admit that I married Li Anguo out of spite, but I've learned a lesson from this marriage. One shouldn't fall into the same trap twice!"

Ye Xiaoli spoke righteously, and Luo Dongxu felt ashamed: "I'm sorry, Comrade Ye Xiaoli... I was too abrupt, I..."

He is not the same person as Li Anguo.

"But," before he could finish his words, Ye Xiaoli suddenly changed the subject, speaking even more righteously than before, "If I marry you after divorcing Li Anguo, it won't be out of spite, but because of what you just said: you're handsome, have a good family background, and are more promising than Li Anjian!"

Luo Dongxu: “…”

Ecstasy, "You said you would marry me?"

Ye Xiaoli nodded, looking like she had made a great sacrifice: "Of course, you are very charming. I am willing to give up my bright future of self-reliance for you. I even have the depraved idea of letting you wash your hands and cook for me. You really hurt me a lot!

So, you will hand over the family finances and monthly salary to me in the future, right?"

Luo Dongxu was overjoyed: "That's for sure. My Luo family has a long tradition of loving their wives. You can find out by asking about Master Luo's reputation. My mother holds all the power in the family, and my father is as obedient as a mouse seeing a cat when he sees her."

……

After the two of them made the agreement, Luo Dongxu was about to leave Ye Xiaoli's house with his big white teeth bared, when he suddenly saw Ye Bailian leading a group of people straight towards Ye Xiaoli's house.

Seeing Luo Dongxu coming out of Ye Xiaoli's house, Ye Bailian's eyes suddenly lit up and she shouted, "Huh? Why is there a man at my sister's door? No wonder I didn't see him in the warehouse just now. It turns out they are at home."

After she finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth, as if she had accidentally said something wrong.

Just now, Ye Bailian lied to the military wives that An Wenwen missed her biological daughter and was sick, but Ye Xiaoli felt that An Wenwen was partial to her, so she resented her biological mother and was unwilling to go home.

"My mother cries every day at home and is depressed. So I want to find Xiaoli and persuade her to go home to see her and tell her in person that she doesn't hate her."

Ye Bailian tearfully said to everyone, "I just saw that Xiaoli is not at home. Can you sisters-in-law help me find where Xiaoli went?"

Mrs. Wang, who had long been bribed by Ye Bailian, had a glint in her eyes and said, "I just saw Ye Xiaoli and a man at the warehouse. It's a very remote place."

"What? What is Xiaoli doing there? And with a man? Xiaoli and An Guoge have always had a strained relationship since they got married. Could it be that Ye Xiaoli is going to act impulsively again in order to get revenge on An Guoge?"

Ye Bailian seemed very excited, feeling anxious and sorry for Ye Xiaoli.

"Xiaoli is so confused!"

The other sisters-in-law, who were eager to watch the fun, said, "Since Madam Ye is sick, why don't we help find Comrade Ye Xiaoli? How can we not go home to see our mother? There are no parents who are not good!"

So, when Ye Xiaoli came back from the security department, Ye Bailian and Wang Saozi led everyone to the warehouse.

When Ye Xiaoli came back from the security department for the second time, Ye Bailian and others found nothing in that remote warehouse.

"Oh, it seems Ye Xiaoli is really being stupid!" After hearing Ye Bailian's words, Mrs. Wang immediately agreed, "No matter how bad her relationship with Captain Li is, she can't just steal a man just for a moment of anger! She was raised in the countryside, she doesn't know that being unruly and destroying a military marriage will get you shot!"

When saying this, Mrs. Wang did not deliberately lower her voice, and Luo Dongxu heard it all.

He glared at Ye Bailian with a sinister look. It was this woman who had been following Ye Xiaoli just now. It seemed that she had set a trap for him and Ye Xiaoli.

"Just now I heard someone talking about stealing a man. I wonder who this lady is talking about? If you have hard evidence, you can also come to our security department to report it."

Luo Dongxu turned his gaze to Mrs. Wang, "For example, just now, someone gave Comrade Ye Xiaoli a soybean cake that was mixed with poisonous substances. Comrade Ye Xiaoli was very scared and immediately reported it to our security department!"

"Section Chief Fang sent me to investigate this matter. If you know anyone who has had irreconcilable conflicts with Comrade Ye Xiaoli, please provide us with clues. We will keep this confidential."

Luo Dongxu deliberately did not mention that the soybean cake was given to Ye Xiaoli by Li Anguo, so as soon as he finished speaking, everyone present subconsciously turned their eyes to Ye Bailian.

If there is anyone who has an irreconcilable conflict with Ye Xiaoli, who else could it be other than Ye Bailian?

Could it be that because of this, she gave Ye Xiaoli poisonous soybean cakes, hoping to poison her to death? Thinking about it, it was a bit unbelievable, and no one believed it.

Ye Bailian felt as if a bolt of thunder had exploded in his head.

Did Ye Xiaoli actually eat the soybean cake? How did she know it was poisonous and even report it to the security department? Did she have any evidence?

Endless questions kept rolling in her mind, and she tried hard to stay calm so that others would not notice the flaws in her expression.

She knew very well that Li Anjian had deep feelings for her, so when she did this, she showed all kinds of flaws in front of Li Anjian and kept "hiding" so that Li Anjian could see through all her plans.

Before going out, she knew that Li Anjian was actually following her. She gave Li Anguo soybean cakes and followed Ye Xiaoli, and Li Anjian saw it all.

She also knew that Li Anjian had the key to Li An Country and would definitely help her get rid of the soybean cakes left over by Ye Xiaoli.

Thinking of this, Ye Bailian comforted herself that it was okay. Although Ye Xiaoli discovered that there was something wrong with the soybean cake and didn't know why there was no Chinese medicine, and went to the security department for trouble, the remaining soybean cake had been destroyed by Li Anjian.

The security department couldn't find any evidence. Even if they asked Li Anguo, and Li Anguo said that the soybean cake was given by her, the security department would definitely not be able to find it on her.

It's okay! Although everyone suspected her first when they heard someone poisoned Ye Xiaoli, nothing will happen to her!

Ye Bailian was in a state of confusion.

"Putting poison in the soybean cake? How much hatred and resentment does that require? It's impossible, right? Where is Comrade Ye Xiaoli? Has he been sent to the hospital?" someone asked, full of confusion.

To Ye Bailian, it sounded like it had a hidden meaning. Her heart was pounding, and she was so nervous that she couldn't help but cover her chest and retch, attracting everyone's attention.

"Oh, Comrade Ye Bailian is pregnant, right?"

"What, pregnant? Comrade Ye and Director Li aren't married yet, right?"

At this time, Ye Xiaoli heard the noise outside and came out, wondering, "Why are you all standing at my door?"

"Comrade Ye Xiaoli, are you okay? The comrade from the security department just now said you were poisoned. Is that true?"

The sisters-in-law at the scene had sharp eyes. When they saw Ye Xiaoli come out, they all turned their eyes to an old lady named Fang with half-white hair. Old lady Fang shook her head with certainty.

Everyone had different expressions. Sister Wang smiled awkwardly at Ye Xiaoli, "Didn't Comrade Ye Bailian come to us for help? She said your mother, Madam Ye, missed you so much that she fell ill. Ye Bailian wanted to persuade you to go home, but couldn't find you anywhere, so she asked us to help look for you."

"Now that we've found you, let's all go our separate ways, haha."

Another person also said, "Yes, let's disperse. Comrade Ye Xiaoli, you should hurry back home with Comrade Ye Bailian. How can family members hold grudges overnight? You finally escaped the countryside and returned to your own home. It's unwise to be upset with your biological parents all day long."

"Ah, and don't be angry with Comrade Ye Bailian. She seems to be pregnant."

"Ahem...what are you talking about?"

"Oh hahaha... let's go, let's go."

Without waiting for Ye Xiaoli to say anything, everyone except Ye Bailian left in groups of two or three.

Ye Xiaoli and Luo Dongxu were very sharp-eyed and could vaguely hear the people surrounding Old Lady Fang, suppressing their excitement and gossiping in low voices: "Auntie Fang, everyone knows you have a sharp eye. Tell us, can you really tell that Ye Xiaoli is still a virgin?"

"Really! Don't look at my age, my eyes are..."

Aunt Fang's voice gradually faded away, and nothing could be heard anymore.

Luo Dongxu glanced at Ye Xiaoli with a red face and thick neck. Ye Xiaoli accurately caught his gaze and glared at him fiercely.

Luo Dongxu turned his head away, and the corners of his mouth widened even more.

Although Ye Bailian did not hear the conversation between Aunt Fang and others, she felt that there was something fishy between Ye Xiaoli and the man next to her.

Before, the man was unilaterally interested in Ye Xiaoli, but now both parties are interested in each other.

Damn it, why didn’t they fall for it!

"Xiao Li, you heard it just now. Mom misses you very much. She can't eat or sleep at home. She has been lying in bed. She thinks you are with her because she left me. Please go home and see her. I beg you!"

Ye Bailian humbly knelt down in front of Ye Xiaoli.

After Li Anguo got the divorce certificate, he found a place and carefully thought about whether this marriage had to end. After thinking for a long time, he concluded that it had to end.

At first, he resisted this marriage from the bottom of his heart, thinking that it was a shame in his life, a lifelong nightmare and a demon in his heart, and that he could not be relieved without divorce.

So what if we get married? If Ye Xiaoli becomes a better person, we can just get married again.

He thought so.

As soon as he returned to the family compound, he saw Ye Bailian kneeling humbly to Ye Xiaoli. At that moment, he felt a surge of anger.
