I insist

Chapter 26: The Man in Black

Seeing the woman's serious expression, Yu Huailin stopped joking with her.

However, this issue is somewhat complicated to explain, and besides, he really dislikes being probed by others.

"It's just some minor tricks; your local officials aren't of much use. Whether it's threats or temptations, they're very effective against them."

Although Yu Huailin did not explain in detail what happened, Song Miqiu roughly understood some of it.

However, Song Miqiu didn't want to waste her brainpower trying to guess their schemes.

"Okay, I understand. As long as nothing unexpected happens, that's fine."

Her original purpose was not to find out the truth, but simply to find out if those people might come back and search again.

Because it was obvious that she had sensed that Yu Huailin didn't want to talk about this matter, so why should she do something so annoying?

Yu Huailin was taken aback, not expecting that this woman would give up asking questions so easily.

This was quite different from the character of the women he knew.

He was becoming increasingly curious about the secrets surrounding this woman.

However, the more someone is like this, the more likely their identity is not simple.

She just happened to appear here and bump into me. Wasn't this a deliberate setup by someone with ulterior motives?

Yu Huailin did not show any signs of aloofness; some things still need time to prove themselves.

And the one thing he has plenty of right now is time.

"You should rest now. I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving now. Also! Don't talk nonsense in front of them again!"

She was already doing a good job of cooperating with this man in his act, but she never expected him to turn the tables and make her adopted son misunderstand her.

This time, it seems there's no way to explain it clearly, right?

Song Miqiu felt a headache whenever he thought about these things.

"Forget it! Why think so much? You'll go bald!"

Having finally arrived here, and possessing a thick head of beautiful hair, Song Miqiu didn't want to ruin it so carelessly.

Back in the main hall, before I could even step inside, I heard arguing coming from inside.

"So what I said doesn't matter anymore, huh! Don't forget who let you marry into this family! Now you think you're all grown up and want to go against me, is that it?"

"Fine! Since that's how it is, then I'll grant your wish!"

Hearing Qiu Tianlei start to grab his weapon, Song Miqiu was so frightened that she hurriedly went inside!

"What are you doing!"

The two people in the lobby clearly hadn't expected Song Miqiu to return so quickly. Shouldn't she be with Yu Huailin right now?

Although... Qiu Tianlei didn't really want to see that kind of scene.

“Mother, this Tian family is really too ignorant. She doesn’t know her place, so I had to teach her a lesson.”

Qiu Tianlei looked at his mother ingratiatingly. Every time he said this before, his mother's expression was always very pleasant.

However, Song Miqiu, who had never liked the Tian family, slapped him on the back of the head upon hearing this.

Then, as if he still felt a little unsatisfied, he slapped it hard again.

The Tian family member, who had been feeling extremely aggrieved, almost burst out laughing when she saw this scene.

My mother-in-law has definitely changed!

If it were in the past, she might have joined Qiu Tianlei in humiliating herself.

But this time, her mother-in-law stood by her side!

"Mom, I'm fine."

Seeing Tian Shi come over to help her affectionately, Song Miqiu glared fiercely at Qiu Tianlei.

Qiu Tianlei felt extremely wronged. "Mother, why did you hit me? I didn't even lay a hand on her! I was just teaching her a lesson! Didn't you say that people need to know their place? I married her, not so she could enjoy a life of luxury! Can't I even speak up?"

Despite his resentment, Qiu Tianlei dared not say anything more to his own mother.

"You'd better remember everything I tell you starting today! If you still can't remember, then I'll have to set new family rules!"

Establishing family rules is far more meaningful than simply giving verbal reprimands.

Family rules require the consent of the entire family, and it is precisely because the entire family agrees that the lineage that establishes new family rules must abide by them!

Otherwise, anyone who violates the rules too severely will be expelled!

This is where they have lived for generations, who would want to be driven out?

They were kicked out, and just surviving became a huge problem!

"Mother, what are you doing? I haven't done anything wrong. What's with all this talk about family rules?"

Song Miqiu had completely grasped Qiu Tianlei's mind, so she had long anticipated Qiu Tianlei's attitude.

"Good to know! Yumei, let's go find the two children."

After that, Qiu Tianlei behaved himself and didn't cause any more trouble, so everyone could get a good night's sleep.

However, Song Miqiu drank too much water at night, so he inevitably got up more often to get up at night.

"Huh? Where are those voices coming from in the middle of the night?"

Song Miqiu heard it as soon as she came out, and it seemed to be not far from her.

The first person that came to Song Miqiu's mind was someone!

Driven by curiosity, I quietly went over there.

Although the candles had been blown out and they hadn't lit any lamps, the moonlight was bright enough for her to see.

Besides Yu Huailin, there was also a man in black inside!

The voice I just heard must have been that person's.

"I knew it! When I got up in the middle of the night, there was no one on the soft couch outside. So they ran here."

"Someone!"

Yu Huailin was taken aback for a moment when he heard the prompt from the person in front of him.

But he quickly relaxed.

Song Miqiu was one of the few smart people he could work with here; she wouldn't be foolish enough to reveal her secret.

After all, in some ways, she was afraid that others would find out about her secrets.

This is why they have always been able to get along harmoniously, because they each have leverage to threaten the other.

Seeing that Yu Huailin didn't react, the man in black assumed that he was angry because he hadn't noticed the person outside immediately.

So he immediately took a few steps to the front, blocking Song Miqiu's view.

"I'll go and take care of him right away."

Their conversation was far more important than the person outside. None of the people here were trustworthy; he would never be so foolish.

Seeing that he was actually about to attack the people outside, Yu Huailin quickly stopped him.

They waved at him and said something to him, but Song Miqiu didn't have their ability to hear from a distance, so he could only see their actions.

"Huh? That man in black just left like that?"

Song Miqiu was puzzled, and she didn't even notice the other person in the room who was walking quickly to her side.
