Guo Cheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. If Su Chen hadn't helped, his son would have been sent to jail, which would have been a huge blow to his son.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Those DFs are really hateful. If we can catch them all this time, there will be fewer people being assassinated in the future. Su Chen, you two sit down and eat."

"Shaoxuan, have you said thank you to big brother? You must learn more from big brother in the future. He is dad's most proud student."

Guo Shaoxuan blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "I know, Dad. Brother Su Chen is so amazing. He will be my idol from now on."

Several people sat at the table.

Yu Ping greeted them warmly: "Come, try the squirrel fish I made and see if it suits your taste. I don't know what you like to eat, so I made some home-cooked dishes."

Su Chen took a bite and praised it repeatedly: "Wow, it's delicious, especially the sauce. The cooking skills of the master's wife are really amazing."

"No wonder Teacher Guo's weight hasn't gone down. Who can lose weight by eating the food cooked by Teacher's wife? It's impossible to control it."

Yu Ping couldn't stop smiling and liked him even more. This kid was really nice in praising others.

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just a housewife. I don't want to think about food, and there's nothing else to do."

Guo Cheng lowered his head and glanced at his belly. Well, he had gained some weight recently. He should be more careful in the future. Being too fat would affect his image. This brat actually knew how to praise others.

"Ahem, Su Chen, are you busy today?"

Su Chen said while eating, "No need to rush. Lao Guo, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. We are teacher and student, not outsiders. There is no need to be polite."

He could see that since Lao Guo asked him to pick up the child and bring him back, there must be something else going on, otherwise he would not have given him this task.

Guo Cheng sighed and said helplessly, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. This isn't my business, it's your master's wife's business."

"Your master's wife's family consists of two sisters. When they were young, my father-in-law's family was bullied by the villagers because they had no sons. Later, the situation improved when the two sisters grew up and became successful."

"But your sister was a DINK. After she turned 35, she wanted to have a child. She tried for five years but failed. Then, at 40, she suddenly got pregnant."

"This should have been a happy occasion, but strange things have been happening since she became pregnant..."

Balabala started talking, and Yu Ping added to the conversation.

After listening to this, Su Chen understood the whole story. However, to confirm whether it was due to mental stress or human interference, he had to go there in person.

Guo Cheng sighed, a worried look on his face: "I asked you to come one to thank you for helping my friend last time, and also for this matter."

"That child of my sister-in-law's might be her only child in this life. If she can't keep it, honestly, they're both too rich, and there's no guarantee that no one will take advantage of them."

"It's fine now that I'm in my prime, but I'm worried about what will happen when I get older, so having a child by my side is the best."

Su Chen thought for a moment and said, "Old Guo, having children at their age will make them overly nervous. If they are overthinking for their own reasons, they can buy calming incense from me."

"If it's something sneaky or something, we'll see how to deal with it. We'll have to go to the scene to see for ourselves."

Guo Cheng nodded repeatedly: "I understand what you mean. Let's go and have a look this afternoon after dinner. Is it convenient for you?"

"It's convenient. You know I'm just a free man."

"Haha, then let's go in the afternoon."

Guo Shaoxuan blinked his eyes and looked at his father expectantly, but he didn't get a response, so he pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Mom and Dad, I also want to go see my aunt. Please let me go and broaden my horizons. Otherwise, I won't believe in ghosts and gods anymore. What if someone wants to harm me?"

"...!!"

Yu Ping glared at him and said unhappily, "Why are you talking nonsense? Just stay at home. Aren't you tired from taking the bus back? You just like to join in the fun every day."

Guo Shaoxuan tugged at his father's sleeve, shook it, and shouted, "Dad, take me with you. I want to broaden my horizons, too. If you don't take me with you, I'll go by myself."
