C45 It's Hard to Guard Against a Thief with a Bad Heart

0Actually, Lee Wanning attached great importance to the relationship between her and Zhou Qu, especially the area of trust. Although she came from the modern era, divorce wasn't considered special in that era of fast food consumption, but here, Lee Wanning only wanted to like one person.    

    

Enough.    

    

The next day, Lee Wanning went straight into the town and rented the house with the owner. The rent for two years was a total of fifty taels of silver. It wasn't too expensive after all.    

    

Lee Wanning took the contract, but just as she was about to take the money, she suddenly realized that her money was gone.    

    

This was not a small matter. Zhou Qu, who was watching on the side, immediately noticed that Lee Wanning's expression was not right and said, "What's wrong?"    

    

Lee Wanning shook her head and said to the owner, "Uncle, please wait for a moment. I found out that I had left my money at home. I'll get someone to go back and bring it over for you."    

    

The owner of the house didn't really believe Lee Wanning's words, but since she was the one introduced by Young Master Quan, he didn't say anything and just nodded.    

    

Lee Wanning and Zhou Qu quickly returned home to get it.    

    

However, the small box in the house was also gone.    

    

Lee Wanning forced herself to calm down and knew that only she and Zhou Qu had the money. Although Aunt Lee had seen it once before, since she had paid her medical fees these two months on time, Aunt Lee was very obedient and had no reason to come and steal it.    

    

Then, who else could it be?    

    

Zhou Qu was anxious, but Lee Wanning pulled him back and said, "It's okay, don't worry, the silver can't just disappear like this. Nothing in this room has been knocked over, so that means that person knows the silver is here, so …"    

    

"A burglar?" Zhou Qu immediately said.    

    

Lee Wanning quickly pulled him back and said, "Don't be impulsive. In that case, I'll first talk to the owner about the money in two days and then give it to him. For Quan Fei's sake, he will definitely agree. As for capturing this thief, it will be even easier."    

    

Looking at Lee Wanning's confident look, Zhou Qu could only suppress the anxiousness in his heart and said, "Okay, what do you want to do?"    

    

At dinner time, the entire dining table was extremely solemn. Lee Wanning ate like usual while Zhou Qu kept looking at the people in front of her. However, other than him and Lee Wanning, there were only the three people in the room …    

    

Lee Wanning gave Zhou Qu a kick and said slowly, "Today, I have a joyous occasion to announce to you."    

    

"What good news?" Zhou Huai immediately looked up and said.    

    

Lee Wanning said with a smile, "Your brother and I have set our eyes on a house in the town and are prepared to rent it. From today onwards, we will be able to live in the town!"    

    

Zhou Huai's eyes immediately widened, and said, "Really? Just like what happened with Second Sister-in-Law's house? "    

    

Unexpectedly, Bian Lan's chopsticks almost fell to the ground when she heard her name. She looked at Lee Wanning's body and said with a smile, "Yes …" "Is that so?"    

    

In fact, Lee Wanning's heart was pretty much hers. After all, Zhou Heng was a proud and arrogant person. Zhou Huai probably didn't even know the use of money, and the only one who could enter the water in this house was Bian Lan.    

    

However, why would Bian Lan steal so much money for no reason at all?    

    

Lee Wanning had saved up a total of 100 taels of silver for so many days. Any household here would have a lot of money. Adding to the previous scene Lee Wanning saw, it was almost certain that Bian Lan wanted to run away with the money.    

    

But at this moment, no matter how certain Lee Wanning was in her heart, she could only suppress the anger in her heart and say, "That's right. That's why you guys should pack your things well tonight. Tomorrow, we can leave!"    

    

Zhou Huai and Zhou Heng were both very happy, but Bian Lan's expression was very interesting. When Lee Wanning saw this, she could only smile silently.    

    

After nightfall, Lee Wanning's whole body was lying on the window watching. Zhou Qu was beside him, "How can you be so sure that Bian Lan will leave today?"    

    

"Of course, otherwise, after we arrive at the town tomorrow, if she wants to leave, it won't be that simple."    

    

"What are you going to do after you're sure it's her?"    

    

Zhou Qu's words were Lee Wanning's biggest headache. She thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either, but let's see how Bian Lan's attitude is. If she sincerely repents …"    

    

Before Zhou Qu said anything, Lee Wanning already saw Bian Lan coming out of the house with a bag on her back.    

    

Lee Wanning had made some speculations beforehand, but when these speculations were confirmed, she felt upset.    

    

She turned around and was about to call for Zhou Qu, but she found that the person beside her had already left.    

    

Lee Wanning was alarmed and immediately put her shoes on.    

    

Bian Lan, who was on the other side, was about to open the door when she heard a voice from behind her. "Where are you going?"    

    

Bian Lan was shocked. When she turned around, she saw Zhou Qu staring at her, clenching his fists as if he was going to hit her.    

    

Bian Lan's eyes widened. She didn't know how to answer before Lee Wanning came out of the room. "Don't wake up the others. Let's talk inside first!"    

    

She said, "Big brother, sister-in-law, it's my fault, I shouldn't have been possessed by a ghost. I really didn't mean to do it, I was actually very afraid, I was afraid that you would scold me for hating me. Big brother, sister-in-law, I didn't touch any of this money, so I'll give it back to you …"    

    

Zhou Qu frowned and said, "This is no longer a matter of money. When you want to run, what's the point of it?"    

    

This was the question that Lee Wanning wanted to ask. If she ran off with a man, it would be a serious question.    

    

Bian Lan knew what they wanted to ask, so she said, "No, no, brother, sister, I did it today because my father has been sick recently. I want to send him some money, I really …" "I really don't have any other thoughts …"    

    

Bian Lan's face was filled with regret. She almost kowtowed to them. Lee Wanning and Zhou Qu exchanged a glance and were the first to speak, "Really?"    

    

Bian Lan hurriedly nodded.    

    

Lee Wanning sighed and slowly helped her up, saying, "If you want money, just tell me. There's no need to steal it."    

    

Bian Lan quickly nodded. "I …" I understand, eldest sister-in-law. "    

    

"Go back to sleep!"    

    

Lee Wanning slowly stood up from the ground after watching Bian Lan's back. She turned around and looked at Zhou Qu.    

    

Zhou Qu frowned and said, "You believe her?"    

    

Lee Wanning shook her head.    

    

Zhou Qu immediately opened his eyes wide and said, "Then why did you let her go like that? If she really only wants to give money to her father, then this is not the time. "    

    

Lee Wanning pulled him and said, "I know, but have you thought about it? If Bian Lan didn't want to say it, she wouldn't say it even if we sent her to the government. Zhou Qu, there's something I haven't told you before …"    

    

The next day, when Bian Lan got up, she found that Lee Wanning and Zhou Qu acted as if nothing had happened. She only told the excited Zhou Heng and Zhou Huai that they were still not ready and would move over in two days.    

    

When she said that, Lee Wanning had been observing Bian Lan's expression the whole time, but she noticed that her face was normal.    

    

Was his judgement wrong?    

    

Lee Wanning did not believe him. She felt that it was very possible that Bian Lan and her lover had already colluded. They had been planning to leave last night, so Bian Lan would definitely meet up again under the circumstances.    

    

Lee Wanning was quite far away that day, so she didn't seem to see the man. She described his approximate appearance to Zhou Qu, but Zhou Qu didn't know who she was talking about.    

    

It seemed that he could only wait two days to see what would happen.    

    

None of them told this to Zhou Heng. He was a prideful person, so he definitely wouldn't allow this to happen. If he knew, he would definitely separate from Bian Lan without saying a word.    

    

Lee Wanning still wasn't willing to let things get to that point.    

    

However, what made Lee Wanning a little frustrated was that Bian Lan didn't make any movements during the past two days. Instead, she started to get closer to Zhou Qu.    

    

This came from a woman's intuition. Lee Wanning had always felt that Bian Lan liked to have conflict with Zhou Qu these days, whether intentionally or not. But what she didn't know was that in Lee Wanning's eyes, such clumsy tactics were like a clown.    

    

That night, when the table was filled with people eating dinner, Bian Lan slowly stretched her foot over. Just as she touched Zhou Qu's foot, Zhou Qu's chopsticks suddenly fell heavily on the table.    

    

Bian Lan was shocked. Lee Wanning also turned her head to look at Zhou Qu and asked, "What are you doing?"    

    

"Nothing."    

    

After saying that, Zhou Qu turned around and left.    

    

Lee Wanning glanced at his back and said, "It's fine. He might be in a bad mood. You guys can continue eating!"    

    

"Sister-in-law, I'm full. I'm going out for a walk." Bian Lan said as she slowly put down her chopsticks.    

    

Lee Wanning didn't raise her head. She only replied with an "En."    

    

Bian Lan walked outside.    

    

Zhou Qu was at the entrance. Bian Lan walked directly to his side and said, "Brother."    

    

"What's the matter?" Zhou Qu said as he quietly moved to the side.    

    

Bian Lan paused for a moment and said, "Brother, about the matter between Zhou Heng and I... You know it, I can see it too. Eldest Sister-in-Law's feelings for Eldest Brother … "It's not good either, so if …"    

    

As Bian Lan spoke, her hand had already boldly grabbed onto Zhou Qu's arm, and she was about to fall down …
