"Yes, she should thank us for letting her live so many more days! I didn't expect Chu Huaimin to have such a skill. He took her away right under our noses. We really underestimated him!"

Mother Gu spoke in a relaxed and casual tone, but her words were extremely cruel.

"Mother, we have to consider getting rid of Chu Huaimin. We can't keep him here any longer!

After all, he's been in the army for many years and was once a high-ranking official. He must have some tricks up his sleeve. Keeping him around will only lead to more trouble!"

Gu Xuan tilted his neck back and lay back in the chair, relaxing.

Mother Gu chuckled and said complacently:

"Before Scar left, I specifically told him to kill Chu Huaimin's daughter and then leak the news to the others, thus completely destroying their chances of survival.

Then we can do something to let them reunite in the netherworld sooner. It is worth it that he once called me sister!

"Cack!"

Gu Xuan frowned, not happy that his mother, at her age, was still acting like a little girl.

"Mother, you should be more careful, otherwise Grandpa will see you and scold you again!"

When Mother Gu heard Gu Xuan mention Old Man Gu, her eyes were full of disgust, without a trace of the humility that a daughter-in-law should have.

"Humph, that old bastard, if we didn't need his prestige to keep up appearances, we would have let him lie down like Gu Beizhan!"

"Mother, be careful with your words! Don't talk nonsense even at home. If something goes wrong, it could be a capital offense!"

Gu Xuan looked at her with cold eyes, not allowing any objection.

Mother Gu realized she had spoken out of turn and angrily stopped talking. She actually seemed a little afraid of her own son!

Gu Xuan shook his head and changed the subject.

"Mother should visit the Chu family more often. I heard that my cousin Yun Ting was sent out on a mission. He's my only son, so it's inevitable that my aunt would be worried.

You should comfort her more."

Gu's mother didn't want to go, but she knew that Gu Xuan had asked her to go, so she had to nod and agree.

The two talked for a few more words before going to bed!

The mother and son, who had ulterior motives, had no idea that their capable man had been electrocuted into a charred corpse and could no longer complete the task they assigned him!

--------

Let's talk about Chu Xin again.

When the two returned home in the heavy rain, Wang Youzhi and his wife had already planned to harness the ox cart to go to the commune to look for someone.

Chu Xin felt guilty because she had made them worry because of her. Just as she was about to explain, she was interrupted by Li Xiulan's busy speech.

She was distressed as she handed him a towel and looked for clothes, completely ignoring Wang Qiang who was also wet.

After Chu Xin changed her clothes and came out, Li Xiulan looked at Wang Qiang, who had just come out of the house, with an unfriendly look, and said in a sinister voice:

"Why are you back so late? And you made your sister get wet in the rain. Can't you pedal your bike faster? The thunder is rumbling today. It's very dangerous, don't you know?

What's the point of giving birth to a hapless son like you, a weak and frail one?!"

Chu Xin...

Wang Qiang???

He felt wronged, but he didn't say it.

She pursed her lips slightly, lowered her head, and apologized sincerely and seriously: "It's my fault. I came back late. I will pay more attention next time."

Wang Qiang took the blame for himself, Chu Xin was embarrassed and wanted to say a few words,

"Aunt, this is not Wang Qiang's fault, it's me..."

Li Xiulan rolled her eyes at Wang Qiang.

"Jiaojiao, don't speak for him. You said you were busy repairing the car every day, and he followed you around to run errands and even let you get wet in the rain. If I don't beat him up, it would be a light punishment!"

After saying that, he went about preparing food for the two of them.

Chu Xin looked at Wang Qiang sympathetically, indicating that there was nothing she could do.

Wang Sheng, whose eyes were as darting around as Xiao Hei's, saw his mother leaving and quickly went over to her.

"Brother, tell me, what happened on the road?

You came back so late, something must have happened, right? Tell me quickly, is it good or bad?!"

Anyway, following his sister, good things and bad things are all exciting.

Wang Qiang: I said I don’t know anything, I just had a sleepless night, do you believe me?

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wang Sheng wanted to ask Chu Xin again, but when he turned his head, he suddenly found that his father's eyes were staring at him.

Wang Sheng chuckled guiltily, "Come on, Xiao Hei, let's go to bed!"

Wang Youzhi didn't ask them what happened, he just wanted the two children to come back safely.

The thunder tonight is so scary!

Chu Xin felt relieved when she saw this. If they insisted on asking, she would have to lie. Now it was easier.

The next day, Chu Xin did not go to the commune early as usual. After breakfast, she played with Xiao Hei in the yard.

She was waiting, waiting for the news that Scarface and the others had been found.

Seeing that his sister didn't leave, Wang Qiang didn't ask any questions and sat in the yard reading a book.

Around nine o'clock, Wang Youzhi came back from outside. He looked at Chu Xin with a strange expression, wanting to ask something but not knowing how to ask.

When Chu Xin saw him like that, she knew that what she had been waiting for had come.

Then he made a puzzled expression and looked back at Wang Youzhi, "What's wrong, uncle?"

Wang Youzhi came back to his senses and cleared his throat awkwardly.

"Ahem, Jiaojiao, did you encounter anything when you came back yesterday?"

"It's okay. It started raining halfway through the journey. The lightning and thunder were really scary!"

Chu Xin denied it to the end, and judging by her expression, no one could tell she was lying. Wang Qiang, the only one who had some doubts, only glanced at her while she spoke.

Chu Xin was very satisfied with his performance, what a good brother!

Wang Youzhi nodded doubtfully, "It's good that nothing happened! It's good that nothing happened!"

It's not that he thinks badly of Chu Xin, it's really...

Chu Xin couldn't stand other people nagging like this. She pushed away Xiao Hei who wanted to lean on her, went to the side to wash her hands, and then walked over to ask:

"What's wrong, uncle? Just say it!"

Wang Youzhi sighed. Even if he didn't tell her, she would know it sooner or later.

"This morning, on our way to the commune, someone discovered several people lying in the woods at the foot of the mountain. They were all struck by lightning! One of them was turned into black charcoal!

After reporting to the police, we discovered that the other three were hooligans from our commune, and the other one was so burnt that no one knew who he was!

Chu Xin frowned, "Were they all killed?"

Probably not!

Wang Youzhi: "No, only one person died. Everyone in our commune is alive! Right..."

Chu Xin...

If you keep hesitating like this, I'll ask someone else.

"Don't be so upset. Just say whatever you want to say! Isn't there anyone else who won't tell me besides you?"

[Of course he would. He knew how much his own team loved gossiping and watching the fun.]

Wang Youzhi thought about it and told Chu Xin the truth.

"Hmph! All three of them were stunned! The other two were so dumbfounded that they didn't even know who they were.

The other person is Hong Yang. I don’t know if you two had any grudges before, but he insisted that you were the one who killed the person!

You will have to go to the police station again later. What a shame for a good girl to always go there!

How can you believe Hong Yang's crazy talk? You're not bad at beating someone up, but you can also discharge electricity?!"

Chu Xin thought,

[Then you are wrong. The fact that Hong Yang can say this shows that he is not crazy.

However, he accidentally told the truth.]

When Chu Xin summoned lightning, he used his mental power to detect it, and no one else would see it except Scarface.

Then Hong Yang kept holding on to her, and he must have wanted to put the blame of the death on her.

Hong Yang was pretty lucky, he didn't get struck by lightning!

Chu Xin comforted Wang Youzhi, whose brows were furrowed to the point of knotting.

"Don't worry, he's just talking nonsense. No one would take such a mysterious thing seriously."

Besides, isn’t it easy to make him stupid?
