Xiao Feng:

I've gone to the province. The child has been handed to Meizhu to take back to your house.

Aunt

Aunt suddenly went to Central Province; what is she going there for?

I hurriedly took out my phone to call, only to find her phone was already turned off.

My feet felt weak, as if I couldn't stand steadily. I shouted nervously, "Weiwei, Weiwei, come here quickly."

Huang Weiwei ran out wrapped in a sheet, looking at me in a panic and asking, "What's wrong?"

I held the note, trembling all over, and stammered, "Aunt... Aunt has gone to the province."

Huang Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, gave me a look, and said, "I thought something big happened. Aunt going to the province, what's there to be surprised about?"

I glared at her and said, "You don't understand."

Huang Weiwei was startled by my expression, leaned over to me, and asked, "What exactly is going on? I see you trembling all over."

"Something big has happened," I stammered, "Aunt going to the province is more ominous than auspicious."

"Why?"

"She must have gone to report the situation to the superiors," I sighed, "My aunt, you don't even know how deep these waters are."

Huang Weiwei looked at me blankly; I couldn't care about explaining, rushed into the bedroom, and scrambled to put on clothes.

"Chen Feng, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to chase after my aunt," I said, putting on my trousers, not caring that my hair was messy like a hedgehog.

"I'm going too," she threw off the sheet, exposing her stark naked body, full of life and fragrance, before my eyes.

"Don't go, stay home," I said, brushed her hair, hugged her, and kissed her on her smooth forehead.

"I want to go," she broke free from my embrace and also started scrambling to put on clothes.

"You really don't have to go," I said, seeing her panicked look, trying to persuade her.

"No. I must go," Huang Weiwei put on her skirt and took an exquisite hair clip to pin up her somewhat scattered hair.

I sighed and said, "Wife, I don't know if we can catch up."

"Don't worry, if we can't catch up in Hengyue City, we'll chase her directly to the province. Aunt isn't unimpeded in the province either; there will always be time for us to find her."

"Who do you estimate she will go to find?"

"He Jiaxiao," Huang Weiwei smiled faintly and said, "I'm very familiar with Aunt; she has no relatives or friends in the province. Except for He Jiaxiao, there's no one else."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

The stone in my heart fell to the ground. As long as Aunt went to find He Jiaxiao, I would have a way to stall her.

Knowing Aunt's whereabouts, I wasn't in a hurry anymore. I took out my phone and called He Jiaxiao unhurriedly.

"Jiaxiao, it's your brother," I said deliberately and easily.

He Jiaxiao was obviously stunned for a moment, stammering and asking me, "Brother... how do you have time to call me?"

"Jiaxiao, let me tell you something," I paused, looking at Huang Weiwei, and said, "Aunt is going to your place."

He Jiaxiao shouted excitedly, "Great, great. When will Aunt arrive?"

"She will definitely arrive today," I said, "There is one thing you must remember."

I suddenly became serious, making He Jiaxiao on the other end of the phone hesitate, asking nervously, "Brother, tell me."

"If Aunt arrives, you must accompany her; don't let her go out alone, and you must not agree to any of her requests."

"Did something happen?" He Jiaxiao asked in surprise, "Besides, can I control Aunt? It'll be a miracle if she doesn't scold me to death."

"You just have to stall her. We'll be there shortly," I hung up the phone and sighed with relief to Huang Weiwei, "Let's go, wife."

Sitting in the car, Huang Weiwei asked me, "Chen Feng, what exactly happened?"

I was driving seriously, and hearing her ask, I turned my face and said, "Wife, I'm afraid to tell you this because it might scare you."

Huang Weiwei looked at me suspiciously, stunned for a long time, and said, "Tell me, I'm not afraid."

"Wife, since you are familiar with Aunt, you know what kind of person she is," I sighed, "My aunt, she cannot tolerate even a grain of sand in her eyes, let alone suffer any grievances."

Huang Weiwei nodded earnestly and said, "That's true. This personality of Aunt's is something many men can't even reach."

"But she is a woman after all," I said, "Aunt going to Central Province this time must be related to this matter."

"What matter?"

"Do you know about our Chunshan County's Qilin Villa case?"

"I know a little bit."

"Aunt being taken away by the police this time wasn't about the Luqiao Company, but about the Qilin Villa."

Huang Weiwei looked at me in astonishment, and it took a long time for her to spit out a sentence: "How could Aunt get involved in this matter?"

I patted my head and said, "It's my fault! I was the one who dragged her into it."

So I told the whole story in detail, and at the end, I said, "I didn't expect things to be so complicated either."

Huang Weiwei listened quietly, and after listening, she didn't speak for a long time. After pondering for a long time, she said, "Aunt has already returned safely, but she still wants to go to the province; this matter isn't as simple as just being wronged. Aunt must have evidence, and she wants a higher leader to come forward to handle it."

My heart jumped, and I asked nervously, "Wife, you mean the list Aunt gave me isn't the whole thing?"

"It shouldn't be," Huang Weiwei thought for a moment and said, "Without something in her hand, even if she goes to the province, no one will believe what she says. She must have something in her hand."

"What thing?"

"I don't know either."

We both fell silent, neither wanting to speak.

A small red car sped past our car, almost touching us. I was startled, jerked the steering wheel to the side, and almost hit the divider.

Huang Weiwei screamed, her face turning pale.

My hands and feet felt weak, cold sweat broke out, and I cursed, "Damn you, are you in a rush to die?"

Huang Weiwei was still shaken, her face pale. She closed her eyes and stroked her chest, saying, "Chen Feng, I'm scared."

"Don't be afraid," I comforted her, "Wife, let's drive slower."

Slowing down, I took out water, took a sip, and handed it to Huang Weiwei.

She took it, took a sip, and said, "That car just now had a Provincial Party Committee license plate."

"Really?" I asked in surprise.

"Definitely," Huang Weiwei smiled slightly, "I have a classmate in the traffic police team, and they once talked about license plates."

I said "Oh," reached out, grabbed her cold little hand, squeezed it, and said, "Wife, thank you for your hard work."

Huang Weiwei smiled beautifully, "I'm not working hard. As long as it's your business, even if it's climbing a mountain of swords or entering a sea of fire, I won't refuse."

I was deeply moved, pulled her hand, kissed it on my lips, and said, "Wife, how can I not be grateful?"

She pulled her hand back, patted me lightly, and said, "What grateful or not. When husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can cut through metal."

I almost had teary eyes. With such a woman by my side, I, Chen Feng, must have accumulated great virtue in my past life!

I laughed softly, filled with surprise and joy.

Huang Weiwei looked at me suspiciously, examined me for a long time, and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

I laughed, "I'm happy for myself."

She pinched me and said, "Don't be happy too early. I'm not yet a daughter-in-law of your Chen family."

"I say you are, so you are," I said domineeringly, "No one in the world can snatch you away from me."

"What if I don't want others to snatch me, but I leave myself?" she said gloomily, "What would you do?"

"If you dare to leave, I'll castrate myself." After saying that, I laughed out loud. My laughter was to cover myself up; her words startled me. We had been together for several years, and this was the first time she had said something so out of line. Could she have ideas?

"Go ahead and castrate yourself," she blushed, turned her face away shyly, and said, "If you castrate yourself, let's see how you can still be unfaithful."

I shouted loudly, "Wife, when have I, Chen Feng, been unfaithful?"

She pursed her lips and smiled, "You know it yourself."

"I don't know."

"Alright, alright. You don't have to castrate yourself, and I won't leave you. But you have to tell me, what exactly is your role in the Qilin Villa matter? Why are you so anxious, and why did it even implicate your family?"

I opened my mouth but didn't make a sound.

"Unwilling to say, or afraid to say?" she questioned me aggressively.

I hesitated for a long time, sighed, and said, "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with me. It's just that this Qilin Villa is shrouded in clouds and mist, and now even I don't understand it. What exactly is hidden inside, and why does it move so many people to care—there's a lot of room for maneuvering here."

"You're a Deputy County Magistrate, your power is only so big. Since this matter involves the province, why haven't you let go?"

I thought of Wu Quanzi's words, thought of the bait of Vice Provincial Governor Lin Shengmao, and stopped talking.

"Don't you even trust me?" she was obviously angry, tears welling up.

I said heavily, "Wife, you also know that this matter has already involved our family. I don't want you to be involved too. To tell you the truth, this matter might make me soar, or it might make me go to hell. In short, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"No! Your business is my business. How can you say it has nothing to do with me?" she said stubbornly, opening the bottle cap and drinking water fiercely.

"There will be danger," I said uneasily.

"I'm not afraid of even the greatest danger. As long as I stand by your side, even if the sky falls and the earth cracks, I won't blink an eye."

"Thank you, wife," I said earnestly, "With these words from you, even if I go to hell, I will definitely hold my head high."

She reached out to cover my mouth, reproachfully, "Talking nonsense. It's unlucky. Children's words are innocent."

I let her cover my mouth, smelling the faint fragrance on her hand, and couldn't help but stick out my tongue and lick her hand.

She screamed and pulled her hand back, wiped it on my clothes, and laughed and scolded, "Disgusting to death."

I couldn't help but open my arms, hug her, and whisper in her ear, "Wife, I want to make you even more disgusted."
