Lin Ai smiled and said to Shen Jian, “Because you are too na?ve.” After saying that, she jogged to chase after Su Meng, leaving Shen Jian standing alone.

What did Lin Ai mean by that sentence just now? What did she mean by he was too na?ve? He was actually ridiculed by that little girl!

The three of them returned to the vicinity of the Village Chief’s house.

Su Meng had been thinking about what the old man had said earlier. She now somewhat understood the meaning behind his words. She knew why the old man had said that they would not be able to go out at night.

This was because the things that the village had done had already started to suffer a backlash.

Although Su Meng could help resolve it, it was very troublesome. The most important thing now was to resolve Hong Si’s matter first.

Su Meng went up and knocked on the door. After knocking for a while, she heard some movement in the courtyard. Someone asked, “Who is it?”

“Hello, we are here to do business in the village. We would like to consult the Village Chief,” Su Meng shouted.

When the people inside heard that they were looking for the Village Chief to do business, they seemed to heave a sigh of relief. They walked to the door and asked in a low voice, “Do what? Your voices sound strange. Where did you come from?”

“We came from a city not too far away from here. We just have a small problem. Please open the door first. We will leave after we ask.” Su Meng did not elaborate and only gave a rough description.

She was already annoyed by the Village Chief just by saying that she was from another city. She was afraid that the Village Chief would not open the door if she mentioned Hong Si again.

Sure enough, the Village Chief heard that Su Meng was fine, so he slowly opened the door.

The person who opened the door was a man who looked to be in his forties. He was not tall, about 1.75 meters tall. He had a strong figure and dark skin.

“Are you the Village Chief?” Su Meng asked.

The man nodded vigilantly and spoke in Mandarin that was not very standard. “What do you want?”

“Do you know where Hong Si is?” Seeing that the man had opened the door, Su Meng dared to ask.

When the man heard Su Meng ask Hong Si, he turned around and was about to close the door. Unexpectedly, Su Meng was already prepared and directly blocked the door with her foot.

She smiled and said, “Village Chief, don’t be anxious. I’m in business. Hong Si used to be an employee of my shop. One day, he suddenly disappeared, but he didn’t fill out the resignation form and left directly. According to the labor law, I can sue him directly.”

“But it’s too troublesome to go through the legal procedures, so I came directly to look for him. I heard that his hometown is here, and I couldn’t find him in the village, so I can only ask you, the village chief. Oh, right, not only did Hong Si maliciously skip work, he also stole an antique from our shop. If I call the police, he will go to jail.”

After hearing Su Meng’s words, the Village Chief’s face instantly turned ugly. He stuttered, “What, what does it have to do with me?”

“Of course it has to do with you. Hong Si is from your village, but he has disappeared. No matter how hard I try, I can’t contact him. Tell me, will the police come and ask you? If the police find out that Hong Si is hiding, and it has something to do with you…”

Su Meng did not continue with the rest of her words. Sometimes, it was better to remind him halfway.

Initially, Su Meng had not thought that Hong Si had anything to do with the Village Chief. Based on the Village Chief’s attitude just now, she was certain that the Village Chief must have known something, which was why his reaction was so strong.

Moreover, from the Village Chief’s facial features, she could tell that the Village Chief’s fate was too good. No matter where he went, it was perfect.

In the past, he still had a laborious life, but later on, it became a rich and noble life. This change was not a change in his life, nor was it due to his ancestors’ virtue. Instead, it was obtained through feng shui. Presumably, the auspicious qi above him was the same.

However, as for the specific details of the Village Chief’s sudden change in fate and auspicious qi, Su Meng still needed to observe it for a while before she could come to a conclusion.

Just as Su Meng had expected, the Village Chief’s expression immediately changed when he heard that the police would investigate him.

He rolled his eyes and put on a smiling face. “So you’re looking for Hong Si. Come in and we can have a detailed chat.”

The Village Chief opened the door and invited Su Meng and the rest in. Shen Jian was just about to follow Su Meng in when he was stopped by Su Meng.

“Stay outside and watch the car.” After Su Meng said that, she approached Shen Jian again. Using a voice that no one else could hear, she said, “If I don’t contact you within half an hour, you can directly call the police. Villagers in such places are all in cahoots. If anything happens, they will definitely resort to a group to deal with us.”
