When Su Qing returned to the family compound that evening, she was met by a grim-faced Li Fenghuo and Gu Xinsheng. Since the Jin Zhiwei case primarily targeted Su Qing and her grandparents, Li Fenghuo had Shang Yuqi and Li Huan head home first after dinner.
Seeing how serious the two men were, Mrs. Li didn't feel it was her place to criticize Gu Xinsheng, so she turned to Li Fenghuo. "Dinner's over. Why aren't you going home with your wife? And what's with the long face? If you scare my Qingqing, you'll have me to answer to."
Li Fenghuo said, "Mom, Xinsheng and I just need to talk to Dad about something."
"You can talk about things without scowling," Mrs. Li said. Then she called Su Qing over. "Qingqing, come here. Let me tell you, Xiao Hui has been so well-behaved. He's unbelievably clever! All my old friends at the compound were so envious of him today."
