Chapter 11 Sister Li's Surprise Attack
On this day, a sumptuous meal brought joy to both the guests and the hosts.
Wang Yuanchao was perhaps in high spirits and drank a little too much, so he went inside to lie down and rest.
Sister Ma was about to clear the dishes when Cheng Yi pushed her out, telling her to go for a walk and clear her head.
Cheng Yi and Wang Aijia started cleaning up the kitchen. While chatting, Cheng Yi remembered being harassed by the female hooligan that morning and asked Wang Aijia about it.
Wang Aijia explained in detail that the woman was Li Erjie.
Li Erjie's life was full of misfortune. She had just gotten married when her husband passed away. Moreover, not only her husband, but his entire family also met with misfortune and died at the same time.
As a result, people spread rumors that she was unlucky and brought bad luck to her husbands.
Wang Aijia asked curiously, "Why are you asking about her? What happened?"
Cheng Yi laughed generously and said, "This morning, she actually flirted with me."
Upon hearing this, Wang Aijia's eyes lit up immediately, and she pressed on, "How did Sister Li harass you? Tell me quickly!"
Cheng then recounted in detail how he had been harassed.
Wang Aijia was overjoyed and slapped her thigh repeatedly. However, she wasn't slapping her own thigh, but Cheng Yi's.
Cheng slapped her on the butt with a sharp "smack," and both of them were stunned for a moment.
After a while, they heard knocking on the door from outside, and Cheng Yi and Wang Aijia awkwardly separated.
The crisp knock on the door seemed to break the awkward atmosphere, but it also left a unique feeling in the hearts of the two of them.
The shock and embarrassment from before still lingered on their faces, as if time had frozen at that moment, but the knocking brought them back to reality.
Wang Aijia blushed and said softly, "Brother Cheng, listen, it sounds like someone's come to your house. I heard someone calling your name."
Cheng Yi hurriedly went out to check and saw Li Erjie standing outside the door.
She was dressed in black loungewear, carrying two bags of fruit, and kept knocking on the door.
Seeing Cheng Yi come out of the Wang family's house, Li Erjie was obviously taken aback, and then said, "Hey, I was wondering why no one answered the door after I knocked for so long. So you've been visiting people here. Hurry up and open the door for me, my hands are hurting from knocking."
Cheng Yi was a little bewildered and confused, wondering to herself: Are we that familiar? Why don't I know them?
At this moment, Wang Aijia poked her head out of the house and said, "Second Sister Li, do you need to see Brother Cheng?"
Li Erjie was startled. She looked at Cheng Yi, then at Wang Aijia, and asked, "You two? Are you dating?"
Wang Aijia blushed and said repeatedly, "No way! Sister Li, don't talk nonsense. Brother Cheng just finished lunch at our house."
Li Erjie's eyes darted around, and she whispered, "Don't worry, Erjie won't fight you for him. It's just that there's something really important."
Wang Aijia immediately ignored the first half of the sentence and asked curiously, "What is it that is so important?"
Sister Li said with a smile, "The most important thing between a man and a woman, guess what it could be?"
Wang Aijia blushed even more and said shyly, "Oh dear, second sister, what are you saying? I'm going home."
As she spoke, she retreated back inside the door, leaving only Cheng Yi and Li Erjie outside, creating a somewhat awkward atmosphere.
Li Erjie looked at Cheng Yi, then suddenly gave him a flirtatious wink and said in a sweet voice, "Aren't you going to open the door?"
Cheng Yi seemed to be frozen in place, and after a moment of stunned silence, she groggily opened her own door.
Sister Li walked in gracefully, closed and locked the door behind her, and then gently placed the fruit on the coffee table in the living room.
Then, she sat gracefully on the sofa, saying nothing, just gazing quietly at Cheng Yi.
At this moment, Cheng Yi's muscles suddenly tensed up, he didn't know where to put his hands, his feet seemed to be in no suitable position, and his throat was inexplicably thirsty.
Li Erjie, sitting on the sofa, had eyes that seemed to shoot out hooks.
She was sitting quietly on the sofa, motionless and without saying a word, yet Cheng Yi felt a strange sense of fear welling up inside her.
That fear seemed to spread from the deepest part of his heart, making his heart beat faster and his breathing become somewhat rapid.
His gaze occasionally met Li Erjie's, but he would quickly look away as if he had been electrocuted, yet he couldn't help but steal glances at her again.
The atmosphere in the living room was so quiet it was suffocating, as if even the air had frozen.
Before they knew it, Sister Li had forced Cheng Yi back against the wall.
In an instant, two soft lips pressed against Cheng Yi's lips.
Cheng Yi's mind went blank for a moment, and her body seemed to lose all strength, leaning limply against the wall.
However, in this daze, a voice rang in his mind: Is this Soul-Hooking Eye really that powerful?
As the noise gradually subsided, the soft chuckles of Sister Li drifted over.
Cheng Yi, her face full of displeasure, glanced at her sideways with annoyance, her words tinged with irritation: "What are you laughing at? Are you satisfied now?"
Li Erjie's fingers moved like light butterflies, gently circling his chest. Her voice was gentle yet teasing: "What are you shy about? Is this your first time?"
Seeing that Cheng Yi remained silent and did not retort, her smile grew even brighter, like a cunning little fox.
Then she added, "Aijia is quite pretty too, how come she didn't win you over? I'm so lucky to have you now."
Cheng Yi snorted, her words tinged with dissatisfaction: "Do you think Ai Jia is as simple, direct, and rude as you? Coming straight to my house and kissing me so passionately."
Li Erjie gently pushed him with her hand, her tone softening: "Oh, don't be angry, I didn't mean to do this. Who knows how I got so bewitched just now? Ever since I saw you this morning, my heart has been itching. Don't think that I'm into just anyone. The men who want to pursue me could line up all the way to Tianjin."
Cheng Yi snorted again, "What do you mean? As if I took advantage of you?"
Li Erjie quickly kissed him on the lips, her eyes full of smugness: "If we're talking about getting a good deal, of course I got a bigger one. This is the first time in over 20 years, I've really hit the jackpot."
Seeing the change in Cheng Yi's expression, she reached out and gently stroked Cheng Yi's face twice, saying softly, "Don't worry, I will definitely not interfere between you and Ai Jia. However, when you have some free time, could you spare some time for me? I don't need anything, just you are enough. You can do whatever you want."
As she spoke, her supple body coiled around him like a snake. Cheng Yi thought to himself: You vixen, take this from me!
At this moment, Cheng Yi felt a mix of emotions as he experienced Li Erjie's enthusiasm and charm.
He was both surprised by Li Erjie's boldness and somewhat helpless about his own reaction.
Li Erjie's burning gaze seemed to hold endless longing and expectation. She clung tightly to Cheng Yi, as if trying to merge herself into his body.
The atmosphere in the room was ambiguous and passionate; the two heartbeats intertwined, as if playing a unique melody.
The afternoon passed by quietly, and before we knew it, it was almost dinnertime.
Li Erjie walked out of Cheng Yi's house with a magnanimous air, leaving Cheng Yi lying on the bed fast asleep. His appearance seemed to scream "exhausted."
That night, Cheng Yi woke up feeling sore all over, especially in her lower back.
He rubbed his waist for a while before the discomfort eased a little.
At this moment, Cheng Yi was filled with emotion and finally understood the old saying: "There are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not fields that are ruined by plowing." This saying made so much sense to him at that moment.
Cheng Yi poured himself a cup of milk powder and downed it in one gulp.
Then, he rubbed his rumbling stomach and hurried out to get something to eat.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Wang Aijia. Perfect timing! He then dragged Wang Aijia to get some meat skewers.
At the barbecue stall, Cheng Yi specially grilled several large kidneys and chives.
He overheard his classmates and colleagues talking about it while he was at work and school. He didn't know if it would actually work, but he wanted to give it a try.
Seeing that Cheng Yi was eating so much, Wang Aijia assumed that he was so focused on making money by driving that he had forgotten to eat, so she kept adding more food and pouring more wine for him.
After eating and drinking his fill, Cheng Yi was fully recharged.
However, it was already too late, so he took Wang Aijia home directly.
Just then, they saw Wang Yuanchao and Sister Ma coming out looking for their daughter. Upon seeing their daughter return, the two of them asked her a lot of questions.
They were relieved to learn that their daughter had gone out to eat with Cheng Yi.
It was another sunny and bright day, and Cheng went out to earn money as usual.
I was incredibly lucky today; after a busy day, I actually made nearly a thousand yuan.
Cheng Yi was in a good mood and treated himself well. After eating Lao Jingcheng Zha Jiang Mian (noodles with soybean paste) outside, he bought some snacks for Wang Aijia before leisurely returning home.
He first went to the Wang family's house. As soon as he entered, he saw Wang Yuanchao, Sister Ma, and Wang Aijia sitting on the sofa, all of them sighing and looking worried.
Full of doubt, Cheng Yi asked, "What's wrong with everyone? What happened?"
Wang Yuanchao looked dejected and sighed, "Alas, Xiao Cheng, your Uncle Wang has gotten himself into big trouble today!"
Cheng Yi was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
Sister Ma picked up the conversation and slowly said, "Yesterday, didn't our family have a fight with Hou Jingsheng upstairs? At that time, your Uncle Wang was so angry that he cursed him a few times, saying 'You'll die a horrible death.'"
But who could have predicted that today, the neighbors upstairs and downstairs would smell a foul odor coming from their home? By the time they discovered it, Hou Jingsheng was already dead.
After the constables arrived and we inquired carefully, we learned that Hou Jingsheng had been murdered yesterday.
So everyone was taken to the police station to give a statement, but unfortunately, your Uncle Wang had no witnesses who could prove he was not a suspect.
Wang Yuanchao sighed and said, "I never thought that I, Wang Yuanchao, a hero in my life, would be embroiled in a murder case in my old age. If the constables arrest me, Xiao Cheng, I'll leave your aunt and Ai Jia in your care."
As he spoke, tears streamed down Wang Yuanchao's face.
Even Sister Ma and Wang Aijia became emotional, tears welling up in their eyes, looking as if they were facing a life-or-death separation.
Cheng Yi watched from the sidelines, his head spinning. He thought to himself that the plot of this indoor sitcom was moving in a way that was hard to believe.
Cheng Yi frowned deeply, lost in thought, trying to come up with a way to deal with this sudden change.
He turned to Wang Yuanchao and asked, "Uncle Wang, have the constables come looking for you? Do they have evidence that you killed someone?"
Wang Yuanchao slowly shook his head and said with a worried expression, "No, but perhaps, maybe, it's coming soon!"
Cheng Yi smiled and comforted him, "Since Uncle Wang didn't do anything wrong, why should he feel guilty? Besides, we do have some conflicts with Hou Jingsheng, but they're not big enough to warrant killing someone."
Besides, many people in this community have had conflicts with Hou Jingsheng. Not to mention, many people know about his habit of placing objects on high-rise buildings.
And his conflict with those migrant workers from other places—doesn't that go unnoticed by many people? If arguing makes someone a suspect, then those migrant workers from other places are also suspects.
It wasn't just a simple argument. I remember hearing someone say that Hou Jingsheng wasn't paying them, so they started arguing, and it even escalated into a physical fight, though no one was injured.
At this moment, Sister Ma suddenly interjected: "No, I saw a migrant worker's hand bleeding, I don't know how, so I gave him a handkerchief and bandaged it up!"
Cheng Yi seemed thoughtful and said, "So, these migrant workers have a more valid reason. Auntie, have you discussed these matters with the constables?"
Sister Ma shook her head and said helplessly, "No one asked me anything. At the time, I was just too scared to remember any of these things!"
Cheng Yi then asked, "So, do you know where those migrant workers live?"
Sister Ma shook her head again and said, "I don't know, but I saw two migrant workers wearing the same work clothes, which looked like blue clothes with white stripes and the words 'Anjia' on them."
Cheng Yi made a quick decision, picked up the phone, dialed the police, and explained the migrant worker's information and the details to the police officer who answered the call.
Not long after, the two constables arrived again. Cheng Yi hurriedly ran upstairs and found several residents who knew about the conflict between Hou Jingsheng and the migrant workers.
At first, no one wanted to get involved in this kind of thing. However, after Cheng Yi brought out some fruit from his home and distributed it to each household, the residents all came to Sister Ma's house and told the constables everything they knew in detail.
After listening to the conversation, the two constables hurriedly left. Wang Yuanchao then went to sleep peacefully.
Before Cheng Yi left, Wang Aijia asked him if he had bought any meat skewers. Cheng Yi thought for a moment and then shook his head.
Seeing the slightly disappointed look in Wang Aijia's eyes, Cheng Yi sighed inwardly, thinking to himself: It's all my fault for being too soft-hearted; I still can't bring myself to do it.
The system notification arrived early the next morning.
System notification: With your clues and information, the murder case has been solved. You have gained 10 energy points.
Cheng Yi was puzzled: "Huh?? That's it?? That's too stingy! They didn't even give me time to survive?"
