Chapter 779: You Are That Child

The result was exactly as Liu Chuxue had expected; the Security Department personnel interrogated for a long time but found no outcome.

Feng Xiaojuan became the sole victim, after all, she had truly lost her watch.

Huang Aifang, however, possessed quite strong psychological resilience; locked up in the Security Department for several hours, she stubbornly held out, claiming only that she had a good relationship with Feng Xiaojuan and simply wanted to help her find the lost watch.

As for the man who fell from the tree, he too withstood the interrogation well, stating only that he had heard something happened here, came to watch the commotion, feared trouble, so he climbed the tree to see clearly who the Security Department was taking away, and accidentally fell down.

Liu Chuxue naturally did not believe such a coincidence, yet this matter was definitely not going to be left like this.

Early the next morning, she came out of the dormitory and happened to meet Feng Xiaojuan, whose eyes were swollen, also leaving the dormitory, but Huang Aifang, who used to come and go with her, was missing from her side.

It was said she felt ashamed and had taken leave for the day.

Following behind Feng Xiaojuan, at the instant of descending the stairs, Liu Chuxue silently placed the watch she had found yesterday in her own cabinet into Feng Xiaojuan's outer coat pocket; as soon as she left the dormitory building, she put distance between herself and Feng Xiaojuan.

She had important matters today, plus now only she lived in the dormitory, so she directly took prepared food from the space for breakfast, came out, and went straight to the office.

By the time everyone arrived one after another, she had already completed more than half of the day's work.

Sister Hong saw she was already busy: "Why are you so early today?"

Liu Chuxue beckoned to her; after Sister Hong leaned in, she whispered: "Sister Hong, I have something to do today; once I finish the work in hand, I must go out for a while. If anything else comes up later, please cover for me."

Sister Hong glanced at the report forms on her desk: This Miss had done her own share as well.

Understanding in her heart, she said: "No problem."

With the matter settled, she focused her attention and busied herself again; even as they gossiped about the incident in the women's dormitory last night, she did not bother to speak.

Around ten o'clock, she finally finished the work in hand, tidied up, and handed it to Sister Hong: "Sister Hong, I'm heading out first; I should be back before getting off work this afternoon."

Sister Hong handed him a reconciliation statement: "On your way back, stop by the bank."

Liu Chuxue understood immediately: "Thank you, Sister."

Liu Chuxue exited the factory gate and saw Fu Yan Cheng waiting outside: "How long have you been here?"

Fu Yan Cheng took the bag from her hand: "I just arrived not long ago."

Yet as soon as he finished speaking, the gatekeeper old man rolled his eyes: Truly not honest; clearly he had been here for over an hour, yet he says he just arrived not long ago?

As the two were talking, a jeep not far away drove toward them: "Comrade Liu Chuxue, I was sent by Deputy Director Xiao Fu to pick you up."

Having finished speaking, the driver also nodded to Fu Yan Cheng.

The two got into the car and headed straight for the compound.

After the car passed inspection at the main gate, it went all the way inside and stopped before a small building: "Comrade Liu Chuxue and Comrade Fu have arrived."

The two got out of the car; Liu Chuxue looked at Fu Yan Cheng: "He knows you?"

Fu Yan Cheng pointed to the neighboring compound: "Did you forget? My grandfather lives in the neighboring compound; my family also lived on this side of the compound for a few years before."

When they entered, they saw Liu's father and Liu's mother had already arrived; after greeting the Xiao family, they asked: "Father, Mother, when did you arrive?"

The couple, seeing their daughter and son-in-law had come, finally relaxed a bit: "We just arrived a while ago."

At this moment, an old man entered from outside; upon seeing Liu's father, he instantly became agitated: "Are you that child?"
