Black Lotus is reborn. Hush! Just lie down and be quiet.

Xia Qingqing went to the gear hobbing machine factory leisurely and bought a bag of butterfly cookies on the way.

Butterfly Cake

"Qingqing is back!"

The security guard greeted me with a smile.

Xia Qingqing opened the paper package and grabbed a few pieces of butterfly cakes for the old man. The old man was very happy and told her a new story.

"Your father broke Xiang Dongjie's leg. The police came, but they didn't arrest your father. I guess Director Xiang and your father reached some kind of agreement."

The security guard spoke very tactfully, but in fact he was afraid that Xia Qingshan, this idiot, would make a big fuss and his son would be convicted of hooliganism, so he reconciled with Xia Qingshan.

"Isn't Xiang Dongjie dating my sister? Is my dad drunk again?"

Xia Qingqing asked pretending to be ignorant.

"That's it. Don't ask about this when you get home. Just pretend you don't know."

The security guard gave a kind reminder. He knew Xia Qingqing's status in the family and was afraid that she would get into trouble and get beaten.

Xia Qingqing agreed obediently and walked slowly with the butterfly cakes in her hand. Just like in her previous life, Xia Ling's reputation was ruined and no one liked her in the factory. There were also many rumors about her. In her previous life, Xia Ling couldn't stand it and resigned. She went to the south to wholesale clothing and came back to sell it, making a lot of money.

But the good times did not last long. Xia Ling's clothing store caught fire and burned down to the ground. She had to pay compensation for the losses of her neighbor's shop and the landlord. The money she earned was not enough to pay the compensation, and she even owed a lot of debts.

At this time, she met Mr. Xia who came to the inland to look for his relatives. The two of them had similar interests and colluded with each other to kill Xiaoyu.

Xia Qingqing gritted her teeth and used a lot of strength to suppress the murderous intent in her heart.

Since Xia Ling's reputation is already ruined, she might as well add fuel to the fire!

Xia Qingqing went to the office building first. Shen Qiubai was working alone, and Tie Niu took Xiaoyu out to play.

"Yang Hongbing's trial will begin next month. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be sentenced to five years in prison!"

Shen Qiubai has good news. Geng Xinhua just called to tell me.

"I also have good news for you. Yang Hongting was arrested for hooliganism, and was caught red-handed by the police."

In front of Shen Qiubai, Xia Qingqing told him what happened last night without any disguise and with a gloating look on her face.

Shen Qiubai couldn't laugh. If Xia Qingqing hadn't been alert, she would have been the victim last night.

Damn Yang Guozhu!

"Yang Hongbing has committed hooliganism. It will be easy for you to divorce him, and you can also move out of the Yang family now," Shen Qiubai suggested.

Yang Guozhu is insidious and vicious. He will definitely attack Xia Qingqing again. He is really worried.

He was more worried that what happened in his dream would happen again.

But he couldn't get too close to Xia Qingqing, as that would cause criticism from others and ruin Qingqing's reputation. Shen Qiubai was very upset. If his body was the same as before, he could protect her in secret.

He can't do anything now.

Shen Qiubai felt a strong sense of frustration in his heart, but he soon cheered up. As long as Xia Qingqing left the Yang family, it would be fine. And privately, he also hoped that she would leave and no longer have any relationship with Yang Hongbing.

"The Yang family is quite lively right now. It would be boring if I left. Don't worry, I will be fine."

Xia Qingqing didn't want to lie to Shen Qiubai, but she couldn't say clearly that she just wanted to be a widower and didn't want to get divorced.

It’s not that I’m afraid of scaring him, but I don’t want such a bright and handsome man like Shen Qiubai to be involved in these things.

"Then be careful!"

Shen Qiubai stopped persuading her. Since Xia Qingqing had other plans, he would support her secretly.

"I still have to take care of the little fish!"

Xia Qingqing smiled brightly, put the butterfly cakes on the table, and asked Shen Qiubai to give them to Xiaoyu and Tieniu later.

"Why don't you treat me to a meal?" Shen Qiubai couldn't help asking. After asking, he felt annoyed again. How could he snatch food from a child?

Just as he was about to explain, he heard Xia Qingqing say, "You don't eat sweets!"

Shen Qiubai was stunned. How did Xia Qingqing know that he didn't like sweets?

Thinking of how familiar he and Xia Qingqing were in his dream, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. Could it be that she was also...

"I guessed. You don't look like someone who likes sweets. I have something else to do. Don't forget to take your medicine!"

Xia Qingqing was extremely upset. She and Shen Qiubai were not familiar with each other in this life, so it was impossible for her to know his preferences. Fortunately, she managed to get it done.

Xia Qingqing left in a hurry, her back looking a little flustered. Shen Qiubai's frown gradually relaxed, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Xia Qingqing went to the Xia family. Xia Ling was so useless that she didn't know how to use the good handle given to her. It would be better for her to come in person.

Xia Tao is a machinist in a machinery factory, working in three shifts. She remembered that she should be working the night shift during this period.

If nothing unexpected happens, Xia Tao and Xu Manru must be at home.

The family building was very quiet as most people had gone to work. Some women were sitting downstairs, knitting sweaters, picking vegetables, sewing shoe soles, crocheting sofa covers... Every woman had her hands busy and they were chatting while working.

DIY Sofa Cover

Xia Qingqing greeted them politely.

"You're back, your mother is at home!" an old lady said with a smile.

"I'm going upstairs!"

Xia Qingqing smiled obediently and went upstairs.

"Qingqing seems to be getting more and more beautiful after she got married."

"Didn't they say Yang Hongbing was in jail?"

"Yang Hongbing is the eunuch. If I were Xia Qingqing, this damn eunuch would be so happy to go to jail!"

Several women whispered to each other, and they all thought that the reason Xia Qingqing became more beautiful was because she was in a good mood.

Xia Qingqing tiptoed to the door of the Xia family. The doors and windows were closed, and the curtains were drawn. She leaned close to the crack in the door and could still hear faint panting sounds.

She took out a thin tube, inserted it into the crack of the door, and blew the medicine powder in like in martial arts novels. She was afraid that the amount of medicine would not evaporate enough, so she blew in three times the amount.

After a few minutes, the panting inside became heavier and heavier, and it was obvious that the drug was taking effect.

Xia Qingqing raised the corners of her mouth and turned away.

"Qingqing left so soon?" asked the woman downstairs.

"Well, my mother is still sleeping."

No one found it strange. Xu Manru slept until noon every day and didn't have to go to work. She dressed like a fairy every day and bought new clothes every few days. All of Xia Qingshan's salary was spent on Xu Manru.

Xia Qingqing ran to the back wall of the warehouse. The window was open and Xia Qingshan was sitting by the window smoking.

A ball of paper flew into Xia Qingshan's arms.

"Who?"

Xia Qingshan was very alert. He limped to the window, but didn't see anyone. He opened the ball of paper in his hand, and saw crooked words on it, which made him furious.

"Xu Manru is messing around at home!"

Just these few words, specially written with a green paint pen, Xia Qingshan's face turned pale. He asked for leave from the warehouse supervisor and went home angrily.

The women downstairs were still there. They wanted to say hello, but when they saw Xia Qingshan's gloomy face, they didn't dare to offend him.

"There must be another quarrel, let's go and see!"

Several women put down their work and followed him upstairs.

As soon as I walked into the corridor, I heard a loud bang. The door was kicked open by Xia Qingshan, followed by Xu Manru's scream and Xia Qingshan's roar.

But soon the sound disappeared and it became quiet.
