Chapter 79 Why haven't you come back yet?

"Ali, please stop shaking, you're going to shake my head." Brother Zhang looked at Zhang Li walking back and forth in front of him and said.

Zhang Li slapped her hand on the table angrily, "Qixin didn't come back all night! If you're not anxious, I'm still anxious!"

"Qixin is already over 20 years old, so there's no need to worry so much. I think she'll be back soon," said Brother Zhang.

Zhang Li banged the table and said angrily, "Qixin never stays up at night! Something must have happened! I don't care! You should accompany me to the county government office now to report it!"

"She is already such an adult..." Although he thought it was not enough, Brother Zhang still took an ox cart and drove Zhang Li to Bian Lingcheng.

After entering the city, the two parked the ox cart on the side of the road, asked for directions, and then arrived at the county government office.

"Hey, isn't this door open?" Zhang Li frowned and looked at the closed door in front of her.

"Knock, knock, try." Brother Zhang stepped forward and knocked a few times, but there was no movement inside the door.

Just when the two of them didn't know what to do, a clear voice came.

"You two came to the county government office, what are you doing?"

Turning around and looking, it turned out to be a young man dressed in white.

"I haven't seen my sister for a day. I'm afraid something happened and I want to report it to the official!" Zhang Li seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.

"What's your sister's name?" the young man in white said, taking out the key and unlocking the door.

"Call Qiao Qixin!"

"Qiao Qixin? Are you the shopkeeper of Liu Qixin's vegetable shop?"

"Yes, yes, you know him?"

Of course I do.

Liu Zhan thought to himself.

However, wasn’t she sent out by me last night?

Liu Zhan led Zhang Li and Zhang Li into a room specially used for questioning in the county government office, then took out paper and ink and asked, "When did she leave?"

"Yesterday morning, it was Li Changwang who came to call her away, saying that his boss had trouble with Qixin!"

Liu Zhan asked a few more questions, and after roughly figuring out the time and order of events, he invited Zhang Li and Zhang Li out of the Yamen.

——

"Ali, do you think this young man is reliable?" Brother Zhang was a little worried.

Zhang Li shook her head, "Let's go to Shunyuan and ask Li Changwang."

The two of them walked along the lively street and found the Shunyuan Hotel.

The restaurant was packed with people, and Zhang Li had to rush Li Changwang out for a long time.

"Hey, Sister Li, please come in quickly." Li Changwang rubbed his hands, trying to invite the two of them into the store.

"Where is my Qixin?" Zhang Li ignored her and asked directly.

Li Changwang rolled his eyes, "Shopkeeper Qiao went back after discussing with my boss yesterday. What happened?"

Zhang Li frowned and looked at Li Changwang with suspicion, "Qixin has not come back since she left with you."

"What? Sister Li, do you suspect that I have tied up Shopkeeper Qiao?" Li Changwang asked.

"I didn't say that."

Li Changwang smiled "haha", "Shopkeeper Qiao is not a child, so it's not impossible to meet the one you like and live with him for a while on the road."

"Why are you talking!" Brother Zhang was also angry. Isn't Li Changwang blaming someone's innocence?

Li Changwang bowed to the two of them, "The store is busy, so I won't chat with you two." After saying that, Li Changwang went back to the store directly, leaving Zhang Li and Zhang Li at the door.

——

"It's definitely Li Changwang and the others who did it!" Zhang Li said angrily with her hands on her hips on the way back to the village.

Brother Zhang was advising from the front, "Ali, Shunyuan and the others are a big hotel and won't do anything to her. Besides, haven't you already reported to the official? Don't worry so much."

"It's been a long time since we've been out. There's probably a lot of work piled up in the store. We'd better go back to work first. If there's no news about her by tomorrow, we can go to the Yamen again."

Zhang Li held her breath, she always felt that Qixin was detained by someone, but she had no clue.

"How about asking the Jia family for mercy and asking them to help find information about Qixin?" Zhang Li asked tentatively.

Brother Zhang looked back at her and said, "Are you crazy? We are just serving food to his family, how can we have the nerve to ask them for help!"

"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhang Li said angrily.

Brother Zhang was a little helpless, "Maybe Qixin just thought it was fun and played a little longer. It's only been a day. We don't need to be in such a hurry, right?"

Zhang Li pursed her lips and sat in the car with her hands folded across her chest.

She also felt that she was a little too nervous, but she didn't know why, she was just anxious, she just felt that something had happened to Qixin!

Jia Mansion

Qiao Qixin was taken to take a shower and was forced to put on a peach-colored dress.

"Stand still!" Qian's mother scolded sternly.

Qiao Qixin stood still reluctantly with a bowl on her head.

It was terrible. Just now in the backyard, when Liang Anting wasn't paying attention, Qiao Qixin kicked him and completed the system task.

I thought I could leave as a vegetable shop owner, but I didn't expect that the system would issue a task right after.

[Issue a task based on the host’s current situation: increase Jia Yulian’s favorability to 50]

[Task Level: Advanced]

[Reward: A pair of carp-shaped jade pendants]

[Remarks: For couples, both parties can sense each other's position randomly]

That's right, this is it.

Is this the beginning of a romantic relationship? How weird! She just wants to be a vegetable shop owner in peace!
