Chapter 1259: Why Did He Insist on Dragging You to That Kind of Place

Liu Chuxue's face darkened after hearing this: "Where is that coworker who stopped you?"

Xiao Fu was about to scold someone, but the movement was too large, tugging at the wound on his face, making him hiss in pain.

After recovering for a while, he spoke with slightly slurred words: "That guy saw a coworker coming and slipped away first."

"Did you tell the coworker who helped you the truth?"

"Well, I felt ashamed, didn't mention him, just said those people rushed out from a dark alley, probably wandering criminals."

"Did you report it to the police?"

"No, I was afraid it would bring up my going to the underground casino."

"What is that coworker of yours called?"

"What are you going to do? Those people are not easy to provoke. You are pregnant now, you can't act recklessly."

"Don't worry, I know the weight of things. Let Fu Yan Cheng find someone to help you investigate those people, and we'll discuss how to handle it later."

"As long as I don't go out alone in the future, he won't dare to look for me openly again; otherwise, he wouldn't have run away today when he saw a coworker coming to help."

Liu Chuxue repeated the question with a cold face: "What is the name of that coworker who harmed you?"

Xiao Fu saw he had no choice but to say: "Xu Great Ming."

"Is that person in the same work group as you?"

"Yes."

"Let's go home first. You need to clean the wound on your face. Do you have any ointment at home?"

Xiao Fu shook his head: "Probably not."

Liu Chuxue simply took the person directly to a hospital not far from home, having someone treat the wound: "Physician, please prescribe some medicine for him, and let him apply it himself at home later."

After leaving the hospital, Xiao Fu kept his head down, occasionally stealing a glance at his daughter: "Liu Chuxue, I, I was wrong. I promise I will never go to that kind of place with him again."

"Have you ever thought about why he insisted on dragging you to that kind of place?"

Xiao Fu spoke only after a long while: "I hadn't thought about it before, but after this incident today, I thought carefully, and it's probably because he felt I stole the team leader's position."

Liu Chuxue nodded slightly: "That is also possible."

After the two arrived home, Miao Yiqiu, who was drying diapers in the yard, was startled by his appearance: "How did this happen?"

Xiao Fu looked embarrassed: "Aunt Miao, don't worry. It was just a fight after a verbal argument with a coworker."

"Oh my, you are so old, why are you still so impulsive? If your father sees this, he will inevitably criticize you."

Thinking of the old master handling affairs in the Hui region, Xiao Fu felt a pang of guilt: "Aunt Miao, did the old master say when he will return?"

Miao Yiqiu looked at his guilty expression: "It will be next week."

Xiao Fu calculated in his mind: if he isn't healed before the old master returns, he will hide in the team's tool shed for a few days, swap shifts with coworkers then, and rest together once the wound on his face is healed.

After he finished speaking about his matter, Miao Yiqiu looked at Liu Chuxue and then remembered Xia Qiu: "Where is your sister? You went out together, why didn't you return together?"

Liu Chuxue glanced toward the room where her sister lived: "Where is Dongdong?"

Miao Yiqiu pointed with her chin toward Xiao Mu's room: "He was sent to your mother's room as soon as he woke up. This boy is quite well-behaved; after eating his fill, he didn't make a fuss, just played by himself there."

After speaking, she asked another question: "Seeing that it's almost lunchtime, where is your sister?"

Liu Chuxue stepped forward and whispered in Miao Yiqiu's ear: "I am going to join the army. I traded my job for my sister for a job at a textile factory."

Upon hearing this, Miao Yiqiu was stunned: "Did you discuss this matter with Fu Yan Cheng?"

Liu Chuxue knew what her great-aunt was worried about: "Don't worry, it's not given for free. From now on, every month my sister must give me money until she has repaid the value of the job."
