Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a residential building.
Ruan Xingwan sat in the car and looked around to make sure that the spot where she was parked was where Zhou Cishen had brought her before, then she opened the door and got out of the car.
It's just that this community is very big and there are many people, so Ruan Xingwan is a little clueless.
She found a place with a wide view, sat on a bench, and used the stupidest and most inefficient method to wait.
Ruan Xingwan couldn't ask Zhou Cishen either. He would definitely not tell her and would be defensive, which would be ineffective.
It's better to try your luck like now, just in case.
Ruan Xingwan just sat motionless, staring at everyone who came in and out of the community.
Time passed by minute by minute, and soon, the sky gradually became dark.
Ruan Xingwan took out her phone and looked at it, sighing silently. It seemed that she still had no such luck.
She put her bag on and turned around. After taking a few steps, she saw a figure in front of her walking towards her.
Ruan Xingwan stopped and took a look, and sure enough, it was the young woman whom Zhou Cishen took her to the mall last time.
After noticing her gaze, Li Xue looked over, surprised for a moment, but more surprised: "Miss Ruan?"
Ruan Xingwan approached and nodded to her: "Hello."
Li Xuedao: "Miss Ruan, why..."
Ruan Xingwan said: "I happened to be doing some errands nearby and passed by here. I remembered that Zhou Cishen brought me here last time and said you lived here, but I stopped by to have a look. I didn't expect to meet you by such a coincidence."
As she said that, she glanced at what Li Xue was carrying and asked, "Did you just come back from shopping for groceries?"
Li Xue reacted: "Yes... I just came back from buying groceries."
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "It looks quite heavy. Let me help you carry it. I just happened to buy something for the little guy. I went up to see him."
Probably because he didn't expect her to say that, Li Xue was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Ruan Xingwan had already taken the thing in her hand, and swallowed the words that came to her mouth. If she refused directly, it seemed like
It's too obvious and makes people even more suspicious.
Li Xue said quickly: "Since Miss Ruan is here, let's stay and have dinner together. I'll buy some food."
After I finished speaking, I wanted to take the opportunity to walk away.
Ruan Xingwan stopped her and said with a faint smile: "Don't bother me. I have something else to do. I'll go up and see the little guy and then leave. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Then... I don't have any fruit at home. I'll go buy some."
There was a fruit stall next to it, Ruan Xingwan said: "I'll buy it."
No matter how you talk about going to other people's homes, it doesn't seem appropriate to go empty-handed.
When she walked to the fruit stall, Ruan Xingwan looked back and saw Li Xue following her, showing no unusual behavior.
She tilted her head, looked away, and bought some seasonal fruits.
However, when she wasn't paying attention, Li Xue took out her mobile phone and quickly sent a message.
When Ruan Xingwan looked over, she pretended that nothing had happened and smiled at her.
After buying fruit, Ruan Xingwan followed Li Xue upstairs.
Li Xue took the initiative to start the topic: "Miss Ruan, I read online that you opened a studio by yourself, right?"
"It's not me, I drove it with my friends."
"Oh, that's quite impressive. There are very few people as beautiful and capable as Miss Ruan these days."
Ruan Xingwan smiled: "It's just good luck."
Li Xuedao: "Miss Ruan, don't be modest. Luck and strength are both indispensable. I have seen the works you designed and they are very good. Sometimes I envy you. If I had your ability, I would not...
…”
She stopped mid-sentence.
Ruan Xingwan asked: "What's wrong?"
Li Xue laughed twice: "It's nothing, it's just in front. Miss Ruan, let's go."
"good."
When she walked to the door, Li Xue took out her key and opened the door. After looking inside for a few times, she turned to Ruan Xingwan and said, "Miss Ruan, please come in. There is some chaos at home, so don't mind."
"It's okay. It's normal for children to have a lot of stuff."
Li Xue put the vegetables and fruits she bought on the table, then walked to the bedroom and took out the little guy with bulging eyes: "Miss Ruan, please help me take care of Xiaobao, and I will make dinner."
Ruan Xingwan caught the little guy and lowered his voice as if he was afraid of scaring him: "Okay."
Li Xue quickly took the things into the kitchen and finally breathed out.
The little guy seemed very happy to see Ruan Xingwan. He kept giggling in her arms, clenching his little hands into fists and waving them happily in the air.
Ruan Xingwan's lips curved, and she hugged the little guy and sat down on the sofa. She originally wanted to find a toy for him to play with, but there didn't seem to be any in the living room. She carried the little guy to the baby's room and got it.
Give him a toy.
When he was about to go out, Ruan Xingwan stopped, looked at the empty room, and frowned slightly.
Ruan Xingwan carried the little guy to the door again, and his eyes fell on the shoe cabinet.
She withdrew her gaze and looked around.
In this room, there is no trace of the second person's life.
But it's also because of this that it becomes even weirder.
How could Li Xue leave such a young child at home and go out to buy groceries alone?
This is outrageous.
At this time, Li Xue came out of the kitchen and walked up to Ruan Xingwan: "Miss Ruan, I've caused you trouble, please give me the child."
Ruan Xingwan smiled and handed the child over.
She spoke slowly: "Are you taking care of the child alone?"
Li Xue was a little numb by her sudden question, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment: "No... no, when I am too busy, I will... I will also ask my neighbors to look after me.
."
Ruan Xingwan said in sudden realization, and then said: "It turns out that your neighbor is helping you take care of your children, where is your husband?
I remember you should have a child, right?
Are you in kindergarten or elementary school?"
"this……"
Li Xue couldn't help but two drops of sweat broke out on her forehead.
Ruan Xingwan added: "I see that there are no photos of you, your husband, and your other child at home."
When Ruan Xingwan spoke, he always kept a faint smile on his face, as if he was just asking a casual question.
But Li Xue knew how powerful it was. Mr. Zhou had already explained it to her in advance, otherwise she wouldn't have done it when she was in the mall.
Just when Li Xue was breathing nervously, the doorbell suddenly rang, and she quickly said: "I...I'll open the door."
After the door opened, standing outside was an ordinary-looking young man and a child of five or six years old.
The man said: "Wife, don't be angry with me. Even if you don't want to talk to me, for the sake of your child, please come home with me."
