Chapter 841: Someone Is Following

Xiao Changsheng refused to budge, and the Liu family, unable to obtain a letter of forgiveness, immediately changed their tune. They called again to Haishi: "Since you cannot make Xiao Changsheng write a letter of forgiveness and cannot protect our parents, you must compensate us. After all, if it weren't for letting you live a good life, we wouldn't have been dragged into this disaster. If you disagree, don't blame us for showing up at your workplace."

Han Huaiming was reluctant, but he had no choice but to agree, having to scrape together money again to appease the Liu family's eldest and third sons, fearing that if they got too agitated and actually came to Haishi to find him, causing a scene at his workplace, he would never be able to show his face again.

Soon, news came from the Public Security Bureau: the Liu couple was sentenced to five years and was quickly transferred to prison.

The Liu eldest and Liu third, having received compensation and knowing they had let their parents down, did not show their faces during this period, which made the old couple so angry they aged several years overnight.

After learning the news, Liu Chuxue also mentioned this matter to her family.

Xiao Changsheng was very open-minded. What did it matter that the Liu family had plotted against them? Now he had a house and a job in the city, and his wife was pregnant. Though he didn't know if it was a boy or a girl, that was his hope, and he was living far better than the two Liu brothers: "They have been punished too; from now on, they have nothing to do with us. Let's live our own lives and let them be envious and jealous."

And just as everyone was about to forget these matters, one day after work, Liu Chuxue had not gone far from the factory gate when she felt someone following her.

She extended her spiritual sense to look back. Ho! Three big men were scattered in different places, and their target was her.

This made her frown involuntarily: What's going on? She didn't recall offending anyone, so why were these people coming after her?

Thinking she couldn't bring danger home, she decisively changed her route, entered a dead-end alley, and quickly flashed into the space.

When those few followed over and couldn't find anyone: "Damn it, where's the person?"

Upon discovering this was a dead-end alley: "Split up and search; it's impossible for her to have vanished into thin air."

Seeing them search the surroundings and then regroup here: "Boss, I didn't expect this."

"This is truly damn weird. Could that dead girl have spotted us?"

"Boss, what do we do now?"

"Let's go back first."

After they left, Liu Chuxue did not come out immediately.

Sure enough, those people were very suspicious; they went back and forth several times, and only after confirming Liu Chuxue had not appeared did they leave, muttering curses.

Liu Chuxue extended her spiritual sense and followed them from afar. After winding through several turns, they arrived at a two-courtyard Sihe Academy. Seeing the few men enter the courtyard, she was just thinking of a place to hide and probe the situation inside the courtyard.

But she discovered someone in the shadows was actually watching this courtyard.

Seeing that person, though dressed in plain clothes, radiating an aura of righteousness, she boldly guessed these people were from the public sector.

She had intended to leave, but curiosity kept her there.

Since they had followed her over, she had to find out who exactly was trying to make a move against her.

After turning and leaving, she arrived at the back gate of this two-courtyard compound. Seeing no one in the shadows on this side, she quickly approached the courtyard, pretended to sprain her ankle and leaned against a building, then extended her spiritual sense to probe inside the courtyard.

She found nothing in the second-courtyard backyard until she probed into the main house of the first courtyard: "What? You lost her? What are you eating for?"

"We clearly saw her enter that dead-end alley. By the time we chased over, the person was truly gone."
