Separated by a door.

Cao Xiangyang was still saying nice things.

Guo Xiaoyan turned around abruptly and kicked the door.

"Boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

There was no sound from the other side of the door.

Guo Xiaolan was completely terrified.

Guo Xiaolan had seen Guo Xiaoyan lose her temper many times throughout her life, but she had never seen her behave as wildly as she did today.

"Yan'er, that person is gone, shall we go...go back?"

Guo Xiaolan spoke haltingly, her voice trembling.

Guo Xiaoyan wiped away her tears. "Let's go back inside, sister. Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

Guo Xiaolan was so frightened that she pursed her lips and dared not speak.

You call this nothing?

If something really happens, wouldn't the sky just collapse?

Zhang Xiuying was still in shock even after the two sisters returned to the house.

Good heavens, is this really my own daughter?

When did Guo Xiaoyan become like this? She's so irritable!

……

Liu Jianye is going to see Cui Hongmei.

This time, however, Liu Jianye wanted Liu Jia to go with him.

“Sanzi, I know you’re busy, but I really don’t know what to do this time. Hongmei has suffered so much, partly because of me.”

“I’ve said before that I want to get married soon, but Hongmei is worried that she will be a burden to me, so she has never agreed.”

"Hello, hello, tell me, what kind of excuse should I use to get her to agree to marry me?"

After saying a lot, Liu Jianye finally looked at Liu Jia with a long face.

"You should come with me. Otherwise, I'm not sure what to do. As soon as I see Hongmei looking at me, all my plans will fall apart."

Liu Jianye wasn't sure if Liu Jia would understand what he was saying, but that was the gist of it.

"Why don't you just tell my sister-in-law that it was her father's idea?"

Liu Jia wanted to get straight to the point, so he spoke directly to the heart of the matter.

But Liu Jianye shook his head again after hearing this.

"That won't do. These two people don't get along. If I say it's her father's idea, then there's no need to say anything more."

Liu Jia blinked, suddenly remembering the written agreement with Cui Dashan's fingerprint.

Seeing Liu Jia's expression, Liu Jianye immediately understood what he meant.

"Sanzi, don't mention that piece of paper. I will never take it out unless absolutely necessary. In my opinion, it's no different from Hongmei's indenture."

Liu Jia froze, staring at Liu Jianye in disbelief.

This man, who was about the same height as me, showed such tenderness when it came to Cui Hongmei.

“Brother, I admire your feelings for your wife. You said we wouldn’t take that piece of paper if you didn’t want it, but I think it’s better to talk things out.”

"First of all, my sister-in-law is not a petty person. After this incident, she will probably be able to see clearly what kind of people her parents are."

"Just tell me straight, are you willing to live at Old Cui's house just to save face, or are you determined to live with you?"

"If you want to live a good life with her, then you should marry her as soon as possible, wouldn't that solve everything?"

Liu Jianye likes to overcomplicate things.

Liu Jia, on the other hand, was the complete opposite.

Keep it simple.

To put it bluntly, when it comes to solving key issues, if he could say three sentences, Liu Jia would definitely not say two.

It's annoying how they keep going on and on.

"Could it be..."

Before Liu Jianye could finish speaking, Liu Jia interrupted him.

"There's no such thing as 'whether or not.' If anything really happens, we'll deal with it as it comes. You're already planning to go all out, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Encouraged by Liu Jia, Liu Jianye became more energetic.

"Okay, I'll listen to you then. Actually, apart from things like Hongmei, where I might be a bit cautious, I'm pretty efficient in other areas, don't you think?"

Worried that Liu Jia would laugh at him, Liu Jianye quickly tried to save face.

"Yes, brother, you handle everything at our factory perfectly. As for my sister-in-law's matter, you're just worried and confused. Please understand."

Liu Jia continued, following Liu Jianye's lead.

Liu Jianye finally smiled and didn't mention having Liu Jia come to the hospital with him again.

After seeing Liu Jianye off, Liu Jia went to the factory as usual.

We need to deliver the goods tomorrow, so we need to count the number of baskets today.

In the past, Liu Jianye handled these matters, but now that Liu Jianye has gone to the city, the job has fallen to Liu Jia.

"Zhao Xiaochao, please count the number of baskets."

"Zhan Jun is in charge of statistics."

"You two, help me move these bamboo stalks to the side so they don't block the way."

Liu Jia stood in the middle of the courtyard, and as soon as he thought of something, he began to give instructions. Soon, everyone in the courtyard became busy.

Liu Jia thought he could get things done in ten minutes, but when he looked at his watch, two hours had passed.

No wonder Liu Jianye said that the factory couldn't do without people; it seems that what he said was absolutely true.

Liu Jia licked his dry lips, turned around and went inside to get a drink of water.

It suddenly stopped again.

The sound of a car approached, and Liu Jia instinctively looked towards the door.

"It's not the appointed day yet, why is Li Zhenhe here?"

Ignoring his thirst, Liu Jia strode forward.

At the same time, an idea flashed through my mind.

Li Zhenhe must have misremembered the date, or something unexpected might have happened.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come at this time.

If I really did get the time wrong, then I'm in for a lot of work today!

Liu Jia walked faster and faster, eventually jogging the whole way.

Upon exiting the factory gate, I was surprised to find a Jeep parked nearby.

The car does not belong to the Hongxing Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

The driver was not Li Zhenhe.

A hint of doubt arose, and Liu Jia instinctively frowned.

At that moment, the driver suddenly jumped out of the car.

"Hello, excuse me, is there a person named Liu Jia here?"

The visitor was refined and courteous, dressed elegantly, and spoke with great politeness.

"That's me. What do you need me for?"

Liu Jia did not recognize the person in front of him and was certain that he had never met this person before.

The man smiled and nodded respectfully to Liu Jia.

“Mr. Liu, we came here specifically to see you. We hope you can come with us.”

As he spoke, the man bent down and made a gesture of invitation.

Liu Jia was completely dumbfounded.

What does "take a trip" mean?

where to?

What?

Without saying a word, just by gesturing with their arms, you have to follow them.

Why?

As Liu Jia hesitated, Zhou Caixia suddenly appeared out of nowhere and said something directly to the man.

"No, what if you're bad people?"

Liu Jia was both amused and exasperated.

The way you're asking that question is practically the same as not asking it at all.

Even if they are bad people, they can't possibly wear the words "I am a bad person" on their faces!

The other person laughed again.

"Mr. Liu, please rest assured that we are sincerely inviting you. We will ensure your safety, so please trust us."

The more he said this, the deeper Liu Jia's doubts became.

Generally speaking, those who speak nicely almost never get anything done.

It's like some people who always insist they are good people.

In reality, good people usually don't say "I'm a good person".

"Can you tell me what you want from me?"

Liu Jia asked calmly.

The man hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, this is confidential for now."

"You want my third brother to go with you without even saying what it's about? What right do you have? If my third brother doesn't go, are you going to kidnap him?"

Seeing the other party's attitude, Zhou Caixia felt a surge of anger.

They won't say who it is.

I won't say what I'm doing.

If asked, the answer is to keep it confidential for now.

You have the right to keep things confidential, but don't others have the right to refuse?

"Third Brother, these people don't seem like good people. You shouldn't go. What if something happens to you?"

Zhou Caixia stood in front of Liu Jia, cautiously looking at the jeep in front of her, her eyes full of vigilance.

It has several large wheels, and once it starts, it runs incredibly fast.

If these people really manage to get rid of Liu Jia, they probably won't be able to catch up with him.

The other party clearly did not expect things to turn out this way.

"Mr. Liu, someone wants me to pass on a message to you. You can choose to refuse, but opportunities don't come around all the time."

Liu Jia's mind raced.

Just moments before, Liu Jia had thought of the same question.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the way he's acting, the person who wants to see him must be extraordinary.

Perhaps this is an opportunity.

Given the other party's current stance, Liu Jia readily agreed.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Third Brother, no, it's too dangerous. Why don't I go with you?"

Faced with Zhou Caixia's concerns, Liu Jia smiled and shook his head.

"I'm a grown man, and I need you to protect me when I go out. Isn't that embarrassing? Now that your second brother isn't here, you just take care of the factory and don't worry about anything else."

"But……"

"No buts, I'll be back after I finish taking care of things."

Seeing Liu Jia's resolute stance, Zhou Caixia understood that at this moment, no matter what she said, she couldn't change Liu Jia's decision.

Finally, Zhou Caixia, still somewhat unwilling to give up, braced herself and asked, "Then you at least have to let me know where you went, right?"

"Didn't they say to keep it a secret for now? Don't put them in a difficult position. You can go back now!"

After saying that, Liu Jia nodded to himself.

The driver on the other side breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Liu, please."

The driver moved swiftly and opened the car door quickly.

Liu Jia got into the jeep.

Two minutes later, the jeep drove away.

Zhou Caixia stared intently at the jeep, her brows furrowed in worry.

Third Brother is incredibly bold.

They followed the other person without even knowing who they were.

What if something really goes wrong?

Zhou Caixia's mind was in complete chaos.

Several gusts of wind blew, but they couldn't dry the sweat on Zhou Caixia's forehead.

……

Sitting in the jeep, Liu Jia didn't ask any more questions.

Now that you're already on the bus, where you go and who you meet is no longer up to you.

However, Liu Jia wondered who this important person was who wanted to see him.

The jeep continued driving towards the city.

Liu Jia was already very familiar with the scenery outside the window.

Out of boredom, Liu Jia even wondered if he should push open the door and rush out if an emergency occurred.

Even after arriving in Yecheng, Liu Jia still couldn't figure out who he was meeting.

Could it be... Guo Zhiyuan?

The thought had barely crossed Liu Jia's mind when he immediately dismissed it.

If Guo Zhiyuan wanted to see him, he would never have made such a big fuss.

Guo Zhiyuan is a very low-key person; he wouldn't make such a big fuss.

Could it be... Liu Yurou?

A playful smile flashed through my mind.

This time, Liu Jia was less certain.

Liu Yurou's maid does whatever she wants.

She is perfectly capable of playing such a prank.

Liu Jia turned to look at the driver next to him.

Before he could speak, the jeep suddenly stopped.

"Mr. Liu, we've arrived."
