For the rest of the time, Lin Ze and Meng Tang sat quietly and obediently in their seats, watching Xin Yi and Feng Yi work together in a dishonest way. No, it should be called working together as a team makes the work easier.

After all the procedures were completed and Xin Yi signed and sealed the document, the matter was finally considered perfectly resolved.

Seeing Feng Yi's hesitant expression, Lin Ze became anxious and asked, "Xin Yi, what are your plans for later? Are you going straight back or what?"

Xin Yi thought for a moment, "Well, I made an appointment with a friend this afternoon to go to her house. It depends on the time. If it's too late, I might have to stay at the county guesthouse for the night and go back tomorrow."

“Friend, your friend lives in the county town, why don’t you introduce him to us?” Lin Ze said, glancing at Feng Yi.

"Hey, this is a friend I just met today, the auntie whose purse was stolen. She insisted on thanking me and warmly invited me to her house to introduce me to her daughter and son-in-law. I couldn't refuse, so I had to agree."

"A thief? What's going on?" Lin Ze asked, looking puzzled.

"What thief?" Feng Yi, standing beside him, also looked concerned.

At this moment, Lin Ze spoke up, "I know about this. This morning, Xin Yi encountered a thief on her way to the county town. The thief stole something on the bus. Xin Yi saw injustice and stepped in to help, getting the wallet back for the victim and bringing the thief to the police station."

Xin Yi is truly full of a sense of justice. If it were anyone else, a weak woman like herself wouldn't dare to get involved in such matters, for fear of getting into trouble.

Xin Yi smiled and said, "Since I dare to get involved, I must have the ability to do so. If I really encounter something that I can't get involved in, I can only stay far away. After all, I also value my life."

"Hehehe, you value your life? You value your life so much that you'd go and try to outsmart enemy agents with pistols all by yourself? I think you're pretty brave!" Meng Tang said with a skeptical look.

Feng Yi coughed lightly, "Tell me next time you encounter something like this, and I'll help you solve it. Don't put yourself in danger!"

After Feng Yi finished speaking, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to say these words from his own perspective, and unconsciously, a blush rose to his cheeks.

Meng Tang smiled secretly to himself, "Xin Yi, did you hear that? My brother Feng said that you can ask him for help with anything you encounter in the future. Don't try to be strong on your own, understand?"

Xin Yi just took it as everyone being polite, "That's right, if you have any problems, just ask the soldier, he can definitely solve them, so let's settle it like this."

"Hey girl, does that lady live far away? Do you need us to give you a ride?"

"Isn't this a bit much? Don't you guys have anything else to do?" Xin Yi asked hesitantly.

"Oh dear, what could possibly happen now? These enemy agents are tight-lipped. I doubt we'll get anything out of them anytime soon. Let's leave them hanging for a few days. Since you call me Brother Meng, I'll definitely see you off."

"Do you know that older woman who lives in Xingfu Lane?"

Lin Ze slapped his forehead. "I know Xingfu Lane well. It's only a ten-minute drive there. Okay, then let's use the police car. You two wait here. I'll take Xin Yi to school."

Meng Tang nudged Lin Ze and winked, saying, "Didn't you have something to do? We made plans, didn't we?"

Lin Ze looked puzzled. "What else do we have to do? What did we agree on?"

"Oh dear, you forgot? It was that thing, um."

Lin Ze still looked bewildered, so Meng Tang gave up and turned to look at Feng Yi.

"Brother Feng, could you go and see Xin Yi off? We have some personal business to attend to later."

Feng Yi's expression was a little unnatural. "Alright, leave it to me."

After saying that, Lin Ze tossed the car keys to Feng Yi.

Feng Yi took the key and beckoned Xin Yi to follow.

The two drove the police car toward Xingfu Lane.

The two of them didn't exchange a single word during the ten-minute journey.

If Meng Tang knew, he would definitely say, "See? Without me, these two would have fallen apart sooner or later."

They drove straight to Xingfu Lane and stopped the car.

"Xin Yi, we've arrived at Happiness Lane!"

"Brother Feng, thank you. We'll meet again sometime."

"Okay, be careful." Feng Yi's expression remained indifferent, but a different look appeared in his eyes.

Xin Yi opened the door and walked towards the alley. She paused for a few minutes, then finally drove away.

As Xin Yi walked into the alley, she saw several middle-aged women chatting there, so she went over to them.

"Hello, aunties, my name is Xin Yi. I'm here to see Old Tong's family at the supply and marketing cooperative. Do you know them?"

After listening to Xin Yi's words, one of the older women greeted her warmly.

"Hello, Comrade Xin, I know Old Tong's house well. Just walk straight in until you reach the end. Old Tong's house is on the second floor on your left. Just call out from the first floor, say that his wife is there."

Oh, by the way, Old Tong's mother-in-law is here; she's at home!

"Thank you, Auntie. I'll be going now!" Xin Yi replied sweetly.

"Alright, Comrade Xin, go ahead!"

Xin Yi walked all the way to the end of Xingfu Lane, and was about to call out to Aunt Qin when she looked up and saw that Aunt Qin was hanging clothes on the balcony.

Xin Yi called out happily, "Aunt Qin, I'm here."

Aunt Qin was overjoyed when she saw that it was new clothes, and quickly put down the clothes she was holding.

"Yiyi, wait for me!"

After saying that, he opened the door, rushed down, and grabbed Xin Yi's hand.

"Xinyi, I was worried you wouldn't come. Come on, come on, come upstairs with me. I'll introduce you to my daughter."

Xin Yi could only nod and follow her upstairs. As soon as they entered, they saw a beautiful pregnant woman reclining on the sofa.

Aunt Qin pulled Xin Yi over and introduced her, "Xing'er, this is Xin Yi who helped me get my money pouch back this morning!"

Then he turned to Xin Yi and introduced her, "Yi Yi, this is my daughter Hong Xing! She's a few years older than you, so you can call her Sister Xing!"

After hearing what her mother had said about what happened that morning, Hong Xing was extremely grateful to her for helping her mother get her money bag back, and admired her for daring to stand up for justice. He was about to get up when he thought about it.

Xin Yi quickly stopped her, saying, "Sister Xing, you don't need to get up, be careful of your stomach!"

Aunt Qin quickly added, "Just lie down. Xin Yi isn't the kind of person who fusses over small things!"

After saying that, he pulled Xin Yi to sit on the stool next to him.

"Yiyi, did your business go smoothly? Do you need any help?"

"Aunt Qin, everything has been taken care of. Thank you for your kindness!"

"It's okay, just tell me if anything happens. If I'm not around, come find your Sister Xing, she'll definitely be able to help you!"
