Chapter 937: Inquiring About the Chen Family's Affairs

~4 min read 725 words

Qiu Jinzhou's face was full of gratitude; his wife's newly reunited second brother's family truly thought of Nianchun in every way: "Help me say thank you to your parents and sister; my father-in-law also thanks you for always thinking of your aunt."

Chuxue did not offer words of comfort; at present, this father-in-law seemed quite good, at least his values were upright.

After speaking a few words to her younger male and female cousins, watching them play with Zhui Feng for a while, she took her leave and departed.

Coming out from her aunt's home, the ground was already a sheet of silver white.

She led the dog down another path, unexpectedly walking right to the hospital where she had previously sent off Lu Weijun, still pondering in her heart: I wonder if that person has been discharged yet?

But it was just a thought, so she led Zhui Feng over there.

Walking forward for a stretch, she heard the sound of a disturbance coming from the alley ahead: "If you really give this child away to someone, how can people look at me? After Ming Sheng returns, how can I explain this to him?"

"Could it be that family members forced him to do it, and now they want us to clean up this mess for him? On what grounds?"

"Besides, if this child hadn't been brought out overnight, have you thought about how the neighbors would think of us? Sending him to a good family is better than him growing up with us while people point and laugh at him; I am doing this for his own good."

"But if you do this, how can I tell my father and mother?"

"How to tell? Just tell the truth."

Then the man's voice was heard again: "But if the Hu family finds out about this matter and comes to our door, what then?"

The woman got angry: "You worry about this and that, how annoying. Don't forget the Hu family is run by a stepmother, and before, Hu Liru already had a falling out with the family; if they cared about this child, would you have been sent back to the Zheng family later?"

At first, Chuxue did not pay attention to this conversation, but upon hearing Hu Liru, she suddenly thought of the Chen family.

She led the dog to the mouth of the alley, glanced inside casually, and happened to meet the gaze of that man and woman looking over.

She was just about to move forward when she saw that woman walking toward her: "Are you here to pick up the child?"

Chuxue immediately realized this woman had misunderstood and waved her hand, saying: "No, I am just passing by."

She then lifted her foot and walked forward.

The woman looked embarrassed: "I am sorry; I mistook you for someone else."

Just as Chuxue passed the mouth of the alley, she heard that woman say somewhat anxiously: "It is almost past the agreed time; could it be that you have changed your mind?"

Only the man's voice was heard: "What if Chen Weiping finds out we sent the child away and even got money? Will he come to our door demanding money?"

"Demand what? Don't forget your mother scraped together a sum of compensation for him; what reason does he have to come asking for money again? To put it plainly, we bought this boy back from him with money; naturally, his staying or going is up to us to decide."

Chuxue was no longer calm now; Hu Liru was a coincidence, but what about Chen Weiping?

Could it be that the child they were holding was truly what she suspected?

So what happened at the Chen family?

After releasing her spiritual power to clearly see the appearances of those two adults, she specifically looked at the child in the swaddling clothes; this was interesting.

Since curiosity had arisen, she wanted to know immediately what had happened.

While thinking about things, she walked forward; seeing a public telephone ahead, she went up and dialed a number; after the connection was successfully transferred: "Please help me find Bureau Chief Kong Yizhang."

"I am he; who is this?"

Hearing what seemed to be other people's voices on the other end: "Brother Kong, it is Chuxue."

"Oh, Chuxue, did you call because of something?"
