"Yan Zhou, don't talk nonsense and accuse people unjustly." Mu's father stood in front of the hospital bed, his eyes full of anger, "You have watched Xuetong grow up, how could she do such a thing, and you are under the influence of Who instigated it, Cheng Xi?"

Mu Mu's eyes also showed hurt, "Xuetong is in such a miserable state. You don't feel sorry for her, but you blame her. Yan Zhou, do you want to force her to death? Why are you like this now?"

Pei Yanzhou felt extremely tired.

He told the truth, but he was criticized by others for standing on the highest moral line.

It seemed like it was a mistake for him to accuse Mu Xuetong.

At this moment, Pei Yanzhou seemed to finally understand Cheng Xi's mood.

"I am telling the truth."

Pei Yanzhou's eyes fell on Mu Xuetong, who had been curled up into a ball silently. "You know best what you have done or said. Many people who were at the scene can testify. Mu Xuetong, don't be smart. Others Not a fool."

After saying that, Pei Yanzhou turned and left.

As soon as I walked out of the ward, my father's scolding voice came from behind, "Stop."

Pei Yanzhou stopped his long legs.

Mu's father asked: "Did you already know who kidnapped Xuetong?"

"I don't know who kidnapped Xuetong. She offended several people, including Jia Zhaoping, Wu Fengyu, and Jiang Qian. These people have backends. I just heard the truth about some things recently. Based on these truths, I can probably guess a little bit. Nothing more. One of those three.”

Pei Yanzhou said calmly, "But if the other party dares to do this, they must have been prepared. Even if the police catch the kidnappers, there is no direct evidence to prove that they are related."

"The police can't help it, but you certainly can."

Mu's father begged bitterly, "Yan Zhou, no matter what I can do, I will not come to beg you. Xuetong is unconscious now. When she gets better, you can ask her again. You can't just rely on other people's words." She was sentenced to death, and even if she really did something wrong, she wouldn't have suffered such a serious crime. Look, these are the wounds on her body, with multiple lacerations on her body."

Mu's father grabbed the diagnosis and treatment sheet and stuffed it into Pei Yanzhou's hand.

Pei Yanzhou's tall body remained motionless, and he did not take the medical orders in his hands.

Just moving his thin lips slightly, "Uncle Mu, have you ever worked at Jinqiu Farm before?"

Father Mu's body suddenly froze, "Why do you ask this?"

"Nothing." Pei Yanzhou smiled, "I just wanted to ask you if you know someone named Xiao Jian."

"Xiao Jian?"

Father Mu frowned and rubbed his head, "I can't remember clearly. My memory has gotten worse and worse in the past few years. How about... I ask your aunt?"

"no need."

After Pei Yanzhou finished speaking, he turned around and left without looking back.

Father Mu watched him walk further and further away, and when his body disappeared from sight, he noticed a cold sweat breaking out behind him.

How could it be...how could it be.

Father Mu's head was buzzing.

Even thinking of Pei Yanzhou's indifferent attitude just now, and his sudden question about Jinqiu Farm and Xiao Jian, did Pei Yanzhou know anything.

"dad……."

Mu Ruoqi slapped him hard on the back.

"What are you doing, trying to scare me to death?" Mu's father roared furiously.

Mu Ruoqi was startled. She looked at Mu's father blankly, "Dad, what's wrong with you...?"

This was the first time she saw Mu's father being so cruel to her, "Did Yan Zhou... say something unpleasant again to make you angry?"

"no……."

Mu's father suddenly said, "Ruoqi, I see that Yan Zhou's attitude towards our family is really different from before. Don't think about marrying him. Your mother is right. Let's go back to the county. I just happened to Now that you are as old as your mother, it’s time for you to return to your roots.”

"Dad, are you crazy?" Mu Ruoqi's eyes widened, "Didn't you say you never wanted to go back to that poor and backward small county?"

"Please keep your voice down." Mu's father quickly covered his daughter's mouth with his hand, "This is the Pei family's hospital."

Mu Ruoqi frowned because she noticed that Mu's father's hand covering her was shaking.

Father Mu should know what she is thinking.

"You don't understand." Father Mu's face turned pale.

Pei Yanzhou was already suspicious.

If I don’t leave now, I’m afraid everything will be gone by then.

That's not right. Pei Yanzhou just asked, which means there is no evidence yet.

If he left, he would look guilty.

But if you don't leave, what if you are found out?

The more Father Mu thought about it, the more frightened he became. It was neither possible to leave nor to leave.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Mu Ruoqi was confused.

"You don't understand. You don't understand anything at all." Mu's father pulled Mu Ruoqi into the deserted fire escape and lowered his voice, "Let me ask you, how much money is left in the account now?"

"Dad, what do you want to do?" Mu Ruoqi's eyes flickered. Mu's father was not trying to save her money.

"Withdraw some money from the bank as soon as possible, or... exchange it for gold or something, and don't even think about marrying Pei Yanzhou."

Mu's father choked and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Ruoqi, I know you are always smart, but there is something I must tell you."

Mu Ruoqi looked at Mu's father and was a little frightened, "What's going on?"

"Keep your voice down." Father Mu looked around before speaking again, "Actually, when I rescued Yan Zhou, I already knew that he was the young master of the Pei family."

Mu Ruoqi's eyes widened, as if she were meeting her biological father for the first time, "Dad, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Father Mu sighed: "Before I met your mother, I worked as a coolie at Jinqiu Farm. The life at that time was too hard. I couldn't eat every day. In winter, my hands and feet were so cold that they became covered with chilblains. , I could only make a thin layer of rotten cups while sleeping, and that’s where I met Xiao Jian.”

"Who is Xiao Jian?" Mu Ruoqi looked confused. She couldn't remember that her father had a friend with this name.

"You haven't seen her."

Father Mu's face was complicated, "Xiao Jian is a bit clever. He is very good at pleasing the superiors at Jinqiu Farm and got himself the position of team leader. In private, he will make trouble for anyone who dissatisfied with him or speaks ill of him. You know what kind of person your father and I are. I can’t afford to offend such a person. It’s not easy to have a job in those days. I can only listen to Xiao Jian honestly. But one time, Xiao Jian actually wanted to make a fuss. I secretly sold some discarded agricultural equipment in there, which was a pile of iron, and it was already worth a lot of money, so I didn’t dare to participate at all.”

"Fortunately, I was not involved. After Xiao Jian sold the equipment, the factory suddenly changed to a new leader. The new officer took office three times. Upon inspection, he found that all the discarded equipment had been sold. The leader later found out that Xiao Jian Jian, Xiao Jian was taken to jail."

Mu Ruoqi was almost out of patience with those things about Chen Guzi and rotten sesame seeds, "Dad, what do you want to express by saying so much? Is it possible that Xiao Jian still knows Yan Zhou?"
