Xie Zhenting was extremely worried.

Xu Lu has been unconscious for six hours and shows no signs of waking up.

When he returned home in the morning, he saw Xu Lu lying face down.

Xie Zhenting was frightened and ran upstairs to pick her up.

Xie Zhenting was extremely panicked. This was the second time he had seen Xu Lu faint. Seeing Xu Lu's pale face and the dark circles under her eyes, his heart ached.

Xie Zhentingfeng asked his doctor friend to come over quickly, but he just told him that she was asleep.

Xie Zhenting was stunned. Fell asleep?

How could she fall asleep like this?

Why is she so tired?

I learned from Aunt Wu that Xu Lu and his wife went out after dinner yesterday and did not return until 6 o'clock in the morning.

Xie Zhenting...what's going on? What are these two women doing? They haven't come back all night! Unbelievable!

Xie Zhenting really wanted to wake up the two ladies and interrogate them.

What were these two women, one old and one young, doing out at night? Where had they gone?

Xu Lu and his wife fell asleep.

Xie Zhenting waited at home for six hours until two o'clock in the afternoon. Mrs. Xie finally woke up.

She was shocked to learn that Xu Lu had fainted, and she went into the house to see her.

The two of them sat on the edge of Xu Lu's bed, and Xie Zhenting asked sternly, "Mom, where did you go last night?"

"Let's go play mahjong. Lulu helped me regain my dignity. You didn't see how great she was. Let me tell you, they lost everything. They lost everything except their underwear. Watching them, I feel very happy."

"Hmph, after so many years of oppression, I finally hold my head up. Son, dear son, you should know that lullaby."

Xie Zhenting was speechless. This... playing mahjong? Mahjong all night... wow... unbelievable.

“Mom, you all became rebellious when I wasn’t home? She’s young, but what about you? You’re in your 50s, why are you still making me worry?”

Mrs. Xie listened to Xie Zhenting yelling at her, her mouth open, her head lowered in pain, not daring to say a word.

Xie Zhenting gritted his teeth and glanced at Xu Lu.

"And her... let's see how I treat her when she wakes up."

Mrs. Xie raised her head and said, “You can’t blame her. If you want to scold someone, then… come to me alone. She saw me being bullied, and she was helping me.”

Xie Zhenting laughed. "Oh, wow, I was away for just a few days, and you two are already so close? You even took the blame on yourself."

Mrs. Xie nodded. "Of course. I like her very much. Lulu is a good woman, she is much better than you. You always blame me, but when I was bullied, she helped me..."

At first, Xie Zhenting was quite angry, but after listening to his mother's words, he could no longer be angry. Obviously, after the incident, the old lady was completely fascinated by Xu Lu.

Xie Zhenting raised the corner of his mouth and asked simply: "You...well, I'm not as good as her. Why don't you take her home as your daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Xie murmured, and suddenly pulled his ear. “How much I wish, but you have to work hard. Do you know how much I have done for you? What have you done for yourself?”

"I…"

Xie Zhenting was about to say something when Xu Lu woke up.

Mrs. Xie pushed Xie Zhenting away and walked to Xu Lu.

“Are you okay? Are you hungry? Do you have a headache?”

For a moment, Xu Lu didn't know where she was. She stared at Mrs. Xie, and it took a while for her to come to her senses.

Xu Lu wanted to sit up, and Xie Zhentingfeng helped her.

"Are you OK?"

Mrs. Xie said guiltily, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have kept you up all night. How do you feel now?”

Xu Lu shook her head. "I'm fine, everything is fine... What time is it now?"

“2: p.m.”

Xu Lu quickly threw back the quilt. "I have things to do. I have to go."

Xie Zhenting stopped her. “Where are you going?”

Xu Lu hesitated, but didn't say a word in front of Mrs. Xie. She just said, "I have some personal matters to take care of."

Xie Zhenting grabbed her wrist. “I’ll go with you.”

Xie Zhenting knew where Xu Lu wanted to go. He had already received the news of Xu Rubai's death.

What she wanted to see most now was Xu Rubai's body, because she knew that Xu Rubai would never commit suicide.

Mrs. Xie said anxiously: "Lu Lu, you haven't eaten anything. Eat something before you go."

At first, Xu Lu wanted to refuse, but when she saw Mrs. Xie’s worried face, she couldn’t find the words to refuse her. She nodded. “Okay!”

Xu Lu had no idea what she had eaten. All she could think about was Xu Rubai's death.

She finished her meal in a hurry and left the Xie family.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was very hot. Xie Zhenting was very worried about Xu Lu's health, so he didn't turn up the air conditioner too high in the car.

Xu Lu calmed down. She asked, "You know Xu Rubai is dead, right?"

I know."

"Do you believe he committed suicide?"

Xie Zhenting shook his head. "It shouldn't be."

Xu Lu's eyes flashed coldly. "I think... Ouyang Shaoguang did it."

As soon as Xu Lu heard that Xu Rubai had died, she immediately thought of Ouyang Shaoguang.

That day, he went to the detention center.

But he died two days later?

That day, Xu Rubai was terrified. He told himself he didn't have much time left. The Ouyang family wanted to kill him.

Xie Zhenting nodded. "At the moment, apart from the Ouyang family, we really can't seem to find anyone else who could have killed him."

The idea of Ouyang Shaoguang killing Xu Rubai was not surprising. If he had done nothing, it might have been more surprising.

Xie Zhenting released one hand and grabbed Xu Lu's. "No, there's another way. I can handle it."

Xu Lu felt a little regretful. "I shouldn't have delayed. That day, I should have..."

Xie Zhenting interrupted her call. “So, what if you persuaded Xu Rubai that day? So what, the Ouyang family wanted to kill him. You can’t stop it.”

Xu Lu was a little depressed. Indeed, the Ouyang family wanted to kill him, and he must die.

Xu Lu asked: "Why did you come back so early?"

Xie Zhenting opened his mouth. "I want to come back. If I don't come back, you and my mom will go crazy."

Xu Lu smiled. “We didn’t do anything. We were just playing mahjong. We didn’t do anything illegal.”

“Nothing? Grant even called me.”

Xu Lu sneezed. "They still have the nerve to complain? Ha... Accept the loss? Haha... How did you respond to them?"

Xie Zhenting frowned. "Well, I say... they're lucky they met you. If it were me... they wouldn't even have pants. I'd just leave them on the street and call the media."

Xu Lu smiled, and the haze in her heart finally dissipated a little.

The two of them went to the hospital, but the staff told them that Xu Rubai's body had already been taken away. It was taken away by Ouyang Xue.

Although Ouyang Xue and Xu Rubai's relationship had long since broken down, they had not yet officially divorced. She was still Xu Rubai's wife and could legally claim his body. The police had no reason to object.

Xu Lu clenched her fists. She became increasingly certain that it was the Ouyang family who killed Xu Rubai.

Xie Zhenting made a phone call and put his arm around Xu Lu's shoulders. "Let's go back. We'll go to the funeral tomorrow."

Xu Lu was shocked. "So fast?"

Xie Zhenting thought of that man - Ouyang Shaoguang, and said contemptuously: "Of course, what do you think? The sooner this kind of thing is dealt with, the better. I guarantee they have sent it for cremation."

Xu Lu gritted her teeth. Her plans had all been ruined by Ouyang Shaoguang.

Xie Zhenting hugged Xu Lu and walked out. "Don't be angry, don't be anxious. I'm here. I will kill Ouyang Shaoguang sooner or later."

These words dissipated the anger in Xu Lu's heart.

“I can do it myself.”

Xie Zhenting suddenly leaned forward to kiss her. “In the future, if you say something wrong, you will be punished.”

“What did I say wrong?”

Xie Zhenting wiped his lips with his thumb and raised his eyebrows. "Why should I tell you? I hope you can say more wrong things, so that I can kiss you more."

“Let’s go back. Your number one fan is waiting for you.”

“What fans?”

"Mahjong fan, don't you know that your mahjong skills have won her heart? She worships you."
