After saying this, Liu Fang looked at his cousin sitting on the edge of the bed and fell into deep thought...
His brows were furrowed, his mouth was tightly closed, and from time to time there would be a few heavy snorts, and his fingers were picking at him unconsciously.
It seems that... he is thinking about something.
Liu Fang became a little nervous for some reason.
Different from when he had just eaten, he looked...
Somewhat scary.
Lifting his slightly lowered head, Liu Changqing looked at the little girl standing in front of him. When he saw the fear hidden in the other person's expression...
He was stunned for a moment, and then his stern face relaxed into a smile.
"It's okay, then... Erya, you said that woman left, where did she go?"
"I...I don't know."
Shaking her head, the girl looked at Liu Changqing who suddenly changed his face, felt a little confused, and then said something hurriedly.
"But...she didn't go to your cemetery. It seems she drove directly onto the main road and left."
"Yeah."
In response, Liu Changqing looked at the little girl who looked a little restrained, pursed her lips, and thought of something in her mind.
He reached out and took out his wallet from his coat pocket, then took out a hundred-dollar bill, held it in his hand, and handed it in her direction.
A kind smile appeared on his face.
"Erya... my uncle has something to go back to after visiting the grave tomorrow. I guess he can't wait until you wish me a happy New Year. You can take this and don't let your father see it. You can keep it for yourself to buy some stationery and snacks..."
"I...I don't want it."
Liu Fang said the words of rejection.
His eyes widened as he stared at the hundred-dollar bill handed over by Liu Changqing. He raised his hands in front of him and shook them. His rejection was very clear.
She didn't dare accept such a large amount of money.
Looking at Liu Fang's actions, Liu Changqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This kid... is so sensible.
If it were my daughter, she would probably take the money and run out to buy snacks.
In my heart, I couldn't help but start to feel a little distressed.
After all, he has a blood relationship with his own body. Although it is very weak, he is still his niece after all...
He stretched out his arm and grabbed his niece's arm.
With just a little force, Liu Changqing pulled the girl standing in front of him over, his face became serious again, and he forcefully stuffed the money into the pocket of her cotton-padded jacket.
Look at her.
"Keep the flowers for yourself, go back to the market, and buy something you like when you see it."
"Uncle...I..."
"Okay, consider this as lucky money for you."
Liu Changqing interrupted her.
After saying this, he raised his hand and touched her head, muttering something in his mouth.
"Study hard. When you graduate from college and come to work at my place, I will arrange a job for you."
Liu Changqing's words reached Liu Fang's ears word for word. The eyes staring at him also forgot how to blink at this moment.
Foolishly……
After reacting, Liu Fang didn't say anything, she just lowered her eyelids silently. She actually understood a lot at such a young age.
My cousin, whom I have never met before... is such a nice person.
It's not like what people in the village said...
Looking at Liu Fang who fell silent, Liu Changqing chose to ask questions. Most of the topics he asked were about his parents in the past...
Unfortunately, perhaps because of Liu Fang's young age, she didn't know much. She hesitated for a while, and Liu Changqing, who didn't get any reliable information, stopped asking any more.
After Liu Fang leaves the house...
Liu Changqing then sat on the edge of the bed and took a long breath.
Carrying the airs of elders is somewhat tiring.
After relaxing for a while, he took off his shoes and lay down on the bed.
For someone who is used to sleeping on a large bed at home, this hard bed board is obviously not very comfortable, even if there is a layer underneath.
Liu Changqing just lay down for a while, then chose to sit up again, sitting cross-legged on the bed, frowning, and thinking in his mind...
Could it be that the parents in this body of mine were really killed by Ye Rong?
It's ridiculous and makes no sense.
There was no need for Ye Rong to use this method against the old couple at that time, and when she met her fellow countryman in the hospital, the other party also said that the old couple was very happy when they left in the car.
They probably weren't taken away by force...
What's more, her ex-father-in-law was not dead at that time... That man was still the head of the Li family. How could Ye Rong dare to do such a thing?
What is the truth?
What is the purpose of Li Wanran coming here to find his own graveyard?
Is it out of guilt... or...
His eyes suddenly opened wide, and Liu Changqing seemed to have discovered a blind spot.
That woman... isn't she planning to dig her grave?
This idea only appeared for a second and then was forgotten. It was a completely untenable speculation, but...
It happened that Li Wanran's arrival made him realize.
There must be some inside story that Liu Changqing didn't know about at the time.
What are the two of them hiding...
Obviously, Liu Changqing does not have the potential to be a famous detective, but the truth of the matter cannot be deduced from some fragmentary clues.
but……
Liu Changqing looked at the dilapidated houses around him. After retracting his gaze, he looked at the hard bed board he was sitting on.
Thought to myself.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon... In this day when the whole country is celebrating and getting together, no matter what kind of family they are, they don't want something unpleasant to happen to their family during this festival.
The same goes for your family, right?
Li Wanran...
Thinking of this, Liu Changqing made his next move.
He took out his mobile phone, found Li Wanran's phone number from the blacklist, then unblocked it and pressed the dial button.
The phone was put to his ear.
A few seconds later, the phone call came...
"Beep...beep...beep..."
Time passed by minute by second, but the call was not answered until...
【Hello.】
A word of indifference passed into Liu Changqing's ears. Thinking carefully, it had been a long time since he heard this person's voice.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Liu Changqing asked.
"You came to my hometown...do you want to pay homage to my parents?"
【……】
After saying this, there was no movement on the other end of the phone. Li Wanran on the other end obviously did not expect that Liu Changqing would know about this...
For a while, there was no response.
Liu Changqing waited for a long time. He mistakenly thought that the other party had hung up and took the mobile phone from his ear. When he saw that the call was still on...
He asked again.
His tone was unusually calm, as if he was asking about something insignificant.
"I already know what happened to my parents. Why do you and your family hide it from me?"
