Chapter 280 Tonight, I'm in a Sack
Shen Nian put down what he was holding, smiled, patted Xiao Nanqing's shoulder, and comforted him: "Nanqing, it's okay. It's normal to not be able to control the heat when learning to cook. It doesn't matter if the eggs are burnt. Let's keep trying next time. Sooner or later, we will be able to fry eggs that are not burnt."
After hearing Shen Nian's words, Xiao Nanqing looked at her gratefully and nodded: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to learn how to cook."
"There's no rush to cook. Come here first. I want to tell you something."
Shen Nian said, pulling Xiao Nanqing to sit on the kang, and then whispered, "I went to town today and stopped by to see your grandparents."
"Grandpa and grandma? Sister, how are they? Are they all right?"
When Xiao Nanqing heard Shen Nian mention his grandparents, he immediately became nervous, leaned forward, and his eyes were full of concern.
Shen Nian patted his shoulder gently, signaling him to relax, and then slowly said: "They are all fine and in good health. I told them that you have adapted well here. They are just worried that you are not used to it, especially your grandmother, who specifically told you to eat more."
Xiao Nanqing's eyes reddened slightly when she heard this, and she whispered, "Sister, thank you. I made grandpa and grandma worry. It's all my fault."
Shen Nianle walked forward and patted Xiao Nanqing on the back, just like Shen Nian did. His tone was a bit childish but full of warmth:
"Brother Nanqing, didn't you hear what our sister said? Our grandma asked you to eat more, so if you eat more, she won't worry about you anymore!"
Xiao Nanqing looked at Shen Nianle's adult appearance and couldn't help but smile: "Yes, Xiaole, you are right, I will definitely eat more."
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Nian expectantly: "Sister, did my grandparents have anything else to say?"
Shen Nian looked at Xiao Nanqing's eyes full of expectation, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "They also told you to study hard, don't run around, and listen to me. If there is a chance, they will come to see you."
"Sister, is this true? If there is a chance, can my grandparents come to the brigade to see me?" Xiao Nanqing's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise and expectation.
"Of course it's true, Nanqing." Shen Nian nodded affirmatively, his eyes full of tenderness. "Grandpa and grandma miss you too. As long as they have the chance, they will definitely come to see you."
At this time, Li Jichu's voice came from outside the door: "Sister Nian Nian, Brother Nan Qing, Xiao Le, come out to eat!"
"Coming, coming." Shen Nianle responded happily, then ran out happily.
"Nanqing, let's go out and eat. The dishes we eat tonight are the same as your grandparents eat. You can eat more later." Shen Nian said to Xiao Nanqing with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanqing's eyes brightened even more and he nodded heavily at Shen Nian.
……
In the middle of the night, everything was quiet and everyone was asleep, but Shen Nian was still writing furiously in the space.
It has been so many years since Shen Nian graduated that he has almost returned all the college entrance examination knowledge he learned to his teachers.
She returned to this era with the memories of her past life. She knew the future development trajectory and the changes of the times.
This foresight made Shen Nian no longer satisfied with just getting an ordinary undergraduate degree in this life. She wanted to visit Tsinghua University and Peking University.
She also thought that after being reborn, she must not let down such a good opportunity and must leave something behind to make her life worthwhile.
On the other side, Qin Yichen, who had just come out of the police station, ran into Gu Yanqing with a serious expression. He looked at Gu Yanqing in front of him speechlessly.
"Really, Lao Gu? What did you say just now? I just released the person today, and now you want me to go with you to... put him in a sack?" Qin Yichen widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.
Gu Yanqing's face was firm as he responded briefly and forcefully, "I'm just asking if you're going or not."
Qin Yichen rolled his eyes at him: "Old Gu, you are so inhumane. Not only do you not want to sleep, but you also don't let others go back to sleep."
Gu Yanqing looked at him deeply, and Qin Yichen immediately changed his expression and said flatteringly: "Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go. Wait a moment, I'll go in and tell them that I'll come out after get off work."
Gu Yanqing nodded slightly. Qin Yichen turned around and walked quickly back to the police station, still unable to help muttering under his breath that Gu Yanqing was inhumane.
Not long after, Qin Yichen came out again. He walked to Gu Yanqing and was about to pat his shoulder, but Gu Yanqing suddenly grabbed his hand and handcuffed it behind his back.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's me! No, Lao Gu, what are you doing?" Qin Yichen complained dissatisfiedly.
Gu Yanqing came back to his senses, glanced at Qin Yichen, and released the hand clasped behind his back: "Can we go now?"
Qin Yichen rubbed his painfully twisted wrist and rolled his eyes: "You can go now, but I haven't even put the sack on the person yet, and you twisted my hand first!"
Gu Yanqing ignored his complaints and just glanced at him: "You've only been a police officer for a few days, and your reaction is so slow?"
Hearing this, Qin Yichen stopped joking and said seriously, "This small town police station is not simple, isn't it? If I don't pretend, I will probably become the next Li Shunli."
"Have you found out anything these days? And have you found the account book mentioned above?" Gu Yanqing frowned and asked in a low voice.
Qin Yichen shook his head, his expression becoming serious. "Not yet. The office I'm using now is the one Li Shunli used before. I've searched carefully, but I can't find anything."
Gu Yanqing was silent for a moment, looking far ahead: "That account book is the key evidence. Only when we get it can we continue to investigate. We still have to think of a way."
"Old Gu, do you think it is possible that Li Shunli did not tell the truth? How could such an important account book be gone just like that? There isn't even a backup?" Qin Yichen couldn't help but raise his doubts.
Gu Yanqing shook his head, his expression becoming more serious. "Your suspicion is justified. The higher-ups talked to me before I came here. Li Shunli was the only one who knew about this account book, and he always carried it with him. But after he accepted the responsibility, the account book disappeared."
"Are they crazy? Such an important thing, don't they know to ask him to prepare a copy and mail it back?" Qin Yichen couldn't help but complain.
"Didn't you also say that this thing is very important? Then how do you want him to mail it? What if something goes wrong in the middle?" Gu Yanqing looked at Qin Yichen helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yichen couldn't help but mutter indignantly: Even if I don't mail it back, there will still be mistakes.
