She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 969: Chapter 1023: Went to Find Bao’er

Song Huwen fantasized about wearing alluring, beautiful clothes, taking them off one by one in front of Xu Qigang, her face flush with excitement.

Zhou Yuan watched coldly as Song Huwen behaved provocatively, sneering inwardly.

”By the way,” she said abruptly, ”Did you know your uncle recently went out of town?”

”No, I didn’t.” Hai Yunfeng rarely returned to the compound; his high rank meant even his daily schedule couldn’t be easily probed.

Zhou Yuan leaned closer and said slowly, ”He went to find Bao’er.” As expected, she saw Song Huwen’s face freeze instantly, and she laughed heartily inside.

She wasn’t wrong; how could the old woman allow her daughter to be ignorant? She was probably trained since childhood to seduce men, use schemes, and manipulate.

In Liyang County, at the county government’s guest house, Hai Yunfeng stood by the window, appearing agitated and restless. He personally assembled a think tank, applying the screening method based on the clues and traces of Shen Luhua’s departure, finally narrowing down the search area, roughly identifying a route from the city to Liyang County.

Ninety percent likely, this was the route Shen Luhua took when she left.

That is to say, if she isn’t dead, she is somewhere along this route.

”Still no clues, your holiday is over, and the higher-ups are urging you to return.”

Hearing this, Hai Yunfeng turned around and nodded, ”I’ll go back tomorrow. Where’s Ji Lihua?”

”He went to Shixi Town; I heard Su Hai has some big actions over there.”

”What actions?” Hai Yunfeng asked displeased; whatever actions Su Hai usually took were never good. This man was even more unscrupulous than Su Jiang.

”Sun Gan came personally.”

With these words, Hai Yunfeng immediately understood; Sun Gan was Su Hai’s absolute confidant. If he’s coming personally, then it’s no ordinary matter.

”Just right, let’s go take a look.”

”Yes, I’ll prepare the car immediately.”

Recently, a major event occurred in Shixi Town. There was a political and legal inspection, and Mayor Liu was found to be involved in corruption, bribery, and abusing his power for wrongdoing. It’s heard even the procuratorate has come; people from ten miles and eight villages are rushing to join the excitement.

”Lao San, let’s go have a look too.”

Sheng Laosan estimated it was due to farm work recently that his old ailment acted up, so Shen Luhua took him to the town to see a doctor for treatment. After leaving the hospital and hearing about the prosecutor’s office arresting people, he also took Sheng Laosan to join the excitement.

”What’s there to see?” Sheng Laosan was unwilling to join the excitement and walked slowly.

”You don’t know how wicked Mayor Liu is!”

”But he helped you back then!”

”That you call help?” Shen Luhua shook her head but recalling the foolish things she previously did, she always felt lingering fear. Fortunately, Ningning returned and stopped it; had An’an really married into such a family, who knows how much suffering she would endure.

Truly a beast in human form.

Mayor Liu’s family lived in the family compound at the town government. The prosecutor’s people were surrounded inside and outside at that moment. Mayor Liu was handcuffed, sitting on the ground with an ashen face, looking quite dazed.

Sun Gan stood with hands behind back, beside the gate, glanced up and saw Sheng Laosan, wanted to greet but thought it inconvenient and held back.

”You’re falsely accusing a good person, you beasts, bastards.” Liu Cuixia, appearing deranged, charged out from inside, swearing incessantly as she went, cursing as nastily as she could. A policeman approached to arrest her but was scratched, leaving his face bloody.
