Chen Chen thought, and was about to get up and follow Ning Yuan.

Someone stood up, and a broad figure suddenly appeared before them.

He lowered his head and saw that Sister Zhang had brought him a bowl of noodles. She smiled, but her eyes were sinister as she stared at him: “My girl is already married, with a husband, Chen Qian. Don't make a moral mistake.”

Chen Chen: “...”

The elder sister looked at him smiling, he was afraid.

He took the bowl from Zhang's big sister, and chuckled dryly: "Haha... what are you saying? My morals are quite lofty!"

Chapter Big Sister raised an eyebrow: "Then you don't sit down and eat the noodles properly?"

Saying that, under Zhang Big Sister's piercing gaze, he meekly sat down and started shoveling noodles in his bowl.

Then, Sister Zhang treated him as a hooligan!

Chen Chen was upset.

The captain had Ning Yuan checked, everything about her background was investigated. But Ning Yuan's background was too clean. Now they just need direct contact to see if they could get anything out of her.

But this is a bad start.

Zhang Big Sister's background was that of an eighth-generation peasant family, which was considered very good. Her work and life were normal, unlike Ning Yuan's superior who...

Chen Chen was slurping noodles, while making a decision in his heart—

No, I have to think of another way to contact Ning Yuan!

If he remembered correctly, Ning Yuan would be going back to the village soon in a car; he had to hurry and catch up with her.

No matter if the girl was sent by Rong's family's rival or a real spy, he had to investigate it clearly.

Whether it's Chen Chen or Rong Zhao nan, they wouldn't understand that Ning Yuan's various abnormalities stem from the traces of a bygone era left behind in this time.

Even though Rong Zhaonan could constantly sense that she was different, those doubts couldn't be solved by regular investigative and detective methods.

Thus, this unsolvable doubt left him in a state of hesitation for a long time to come.

......

Ning Yuan didn't expect that after getting rid of a strange "godparent" she met for the first time, she would encounter something like this when she went to the bathroom!

"What do you want to do?!"

She was trapped, the alley blocked at both ends. Ning Yuan leaned against the wall, alert and angry as several hoodlums advanced towards her.

A man in his late thirties with a shaved head approached her, revealing a sinister grin with yellow teeth. —

"Daughter-in-law, you go to the county committee and the black market every weekend to sell goods. You must have made a lot of money and ration tickets. Come on, give some of it to your husband."

Ning Yuan froze, backing away while clutching her canvas bag tightly.

She has been very careful, knowing that wealth is not flaunted. She closes her shop early every day and never takes shortcuts.

I always choose the public restroom closest to Reihk Street when I need to use the bathroom.

She's still being targeted. These bastards have probably been watching her more than once, plotting for who knows how long before making their move!

At this time, two men came out of the restroom and, upon seeing the scene at the door, looked at them with some curiosity.

Ning Yuan, seeing this, shouted at them, "Help! Help! They're robbing us!"

She only cried out when the man, over forty years old, reached out and shoved her hard: "You bitch! Dare you elope with someone? I'll see who dares to help you!"

Besides that bald man, several other hoodlums immediately followed suit and started cursing.

"What are you looking at? The wife ran off. My brother and his wife are fighting, get out of here!"

What are you looking at, looking for a fight?!

As he said this, not only were people coming out of the restroom chased away, but those who wanted to use it were also driven off by several tough guys at the alley entrance.
