185 Something Happened
“How could I?” Xiaobo’s wife took the snacks. “I was just joking.”
Liu Su’e couldn’t help but roll her eyes, but she didn’t make a fuss.
After leaving the Lin family, Le Yao sighed. She wanted to go back and ask about the adoption. Even if she was poor, it would definitely not be a problem to raise a child. As for education… she could learn.
After all, with such an aunt and uncle around, they would definitely not treat the child well.
Not long after leaving Hetao Village, an off-road car came towards them.
Because the road was narrow, Han Xiangdong drove the donkey cart to the side and let the car pa.s.s first.
Le Yao had only taken a casual look at it, but she suddenly frowned because she knew the person inside. It was Yan Zimeng’s a.s.sistant, He Feng.
He Feng also glanced at her, but because Le Yao was afraid of the sun, she covered her head and face with a huge scarf. Not to mention He Feng, who was not too familiar with her, even people who were familiar with her might not recognize her at a glance. Hence, she only took a look and brushed past her.
After the car pa.s.sed, Han Xiangdong continued to drive the donkey cart back.
“Wait.” Le Yao stopped Han Xiangdong.
“What’s wrong?” Han Xiangdong hurriedly stopped the donkey.
“Sister Qing, Brother Bin, follow her and see what that woman is up to.” Le Yao glanced at Yuan Bin and Tao Qing.
“Tao Qing, stay behind. I’ll go.” Yuan Bin jumped off the donkey cart without asking why.
“Be careful. Don’t let her find out.”
Yuan Bin nodded and chased after the car.
Han Xiangdong drove the donkey cart forward for a while and stopped under a big tree. Then, he turned to look at his sister. “Is there something wrong with the person in the cart just now?”
Le Yao nodded. Now, she could confirm that the mastermind behind the car accident was Yan Zimeng. However, she had clearly asked He Feng to come here to look for the Lin family. Why was she looking for the Lin family?
Seeing that his sister didn’t seem to want to say anything, Han Xiangdong didn’t ask further.
About an hour later, Yuan Bin returned. “She did go to the Lin family.” As he spoke, he took out his phone and transferred the photos to Le Yao. “She must have reached some agreement with Xiaobo’s wife…”
In the photo, He Feng gave Xiaobo’s wife something. Although it wasn’t very clear, she could recognize that it should be a check.
Le Yao nodded. “Let’s go.”
“You didn’t do anything else?” Tao Qing glanced at Yuan Bin.
“What do you think?” Yuan Bin raised his eyebrows slightly. “I placed a listening device in her car…” As he spoke, he clicked on his cell phone. Soon, a voice came from inside. It was He Feng’s voice. She was obviously talking to someone on the phone.
“Sister Yan, everything is settled. Don’t worry. Alright, I’ll go back now…”
Then came the sound of a car.
Le Yao heaved a sigh of relief. It was impossible to determine anything with just this recording. However, there was no hurry. She would take her time.
The donkey cart rattled along.
When Yuan Bin felt that there was no useful information, he wanted to turn off the listening device. However, at this moment, He Feng’s scream suddenly came from the phone. Then, there were all kinds of collisions, followed by a commotion…
Something had happened to He Feng.
Le Yao’s face instantly turned pale, but she hurriedly pulled Han Xiangdong. “Brother, hurry up and take a look. Brother Bin, navigate.”
