moment, the elevator doors opened with a "ding".“Good, very good.” He Hanchuan laughed bitterly with anger, clutching her arm and dragging her out of the elevator. The cleaning supervisor at the eleva...Listening to the village head's words, Menglan's lips tightened.

She looked up and met Feng Mu's gaze. Seeing a glimmer of encouragement in his eyes, she realized that it was better to tell him everything than to keep it hidden.

After all, the village head is also a person from the village. He must know many ways to solve problems, so it's the most appropriate thing for him to help himself get rid of the trouble.

Then Menglan cleared her throat and spoke, "You guessed right. I came here to find someone, someone you probably know. His name is Xiaonan."

"You're talking about Xiao Nan, right" The village head burst into a smile and responded cheerfully, "Of course I remember him! He's one of our village's top students."

"A top student" Menglan frowned, "Isn't he just a worker"

Hearing this, the village head sighed heavily, “Girl, you don’t understand the situation in our village. It has always been poor since ancient times. Most people in the village can’t even afford white rice, let alone money to send their children to school.”

"Especially during Xiaonan's time, just being able to make it through high school was already the limit of his parents selling everything they had. Where could they even dream of asking for more Xiaonan is a promising child, but unfortunately... he has bad luck!"

At this point, the elderly village head seemed to recall something painful, wiping his eyes with his hand.

Menglan looked on, feeling quite sad herself.

Fate is something that no one can predict.

Some people are born with advantages, while others struggle their whole lives and may never reach the same heights.

And Feng Mu, who was sitting beside her, saw that Meng Lan had softened. A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

This is also why he's so distrustful of Menglan!

Thinking of this, Feng Mu didn't say much. He walked straight forward and reached out to hold her slender waist.

"Village Head, we don't want to cause trouble either," Feng Mu said firmly, emphasizing each word, "Xiao Nan's life story is pitiful, but what he did is unforgivable. That's why we came here to confirm things."

"Confirm"

The village head's eyes held a hint of surprise. "What could Xiaonan have done This child has always been so honest. How could he possibly make a mistake"

"It's murder," Feng Mu said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, the village head's face seemed to be drained of all color, as pale as death!

Murder

How is that possible

"Xiao Nan is a honest child, and everyone in our village is honest. How could he possibly commit murder and arson You must have made a mistake!" The village head's voice was filled with astonishment.

Mulan lowered her head upon hearing this.

This is also why she just hesitated, never wanting to say more.

She didn't want to see the village head so sad, it would make her feel like a sinner.

"Village chief, I know this result is hard to believe, but it's true. I hope you can let Xiaonan meet with us and cooperate with the investigation. If he was wrongly accused, we won't bother him any further." Menglan instructed in a low voice.

The village head listened intently and nodded hurriedly, “Young lady, you are right. If he actually did kill someone, our village would certainly not let him off lightly. I will take you to see them right now!”

As he spoke, he heavily struck the ground with his cane, his voice laced with anger.

Hearing the village chief's words, Meng Lan finally let out a sigh of relief.

That's great.

She originally thought she had encountered those unreasonable villagers, after all, most village heads would refuse their interviews for their own benefit and scold them.

To her surprise, she actually met a qualified village chief.

After hearing about Xiaonan's news, Menglan didn't even have time to eat her meal before grabbing her things and leaving with the village chief.

Feng Mu was also very worried about her, and with almost no delay, he followed after her.

Soon, they arrived at Xiao Nan's house.

Menglan stood at the door, looking at the dilapidated house before her, her brows furrowed into wrinkles.

To my surprise, this Xiao Nan actually lives in such a dilapidated house.

If Menglan hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that in this day and age, there would still be people living in such dilapidated houses.

Here, it can withstand almost any wind or snow.

Even the beams were swaying back and forth, as if the next second they would just collapse.

Seeing this scene, Menglan's eyes flashed with surprise, "Village chief, are you sure Would there really be people living here"

The village head sighed deeply after hearing this, “Speaking of it, Little Nan’s family is also very poor. He has been a student from impoverished background since he was young. His parents don't have much ability to work, so even if he does well in his studies, he can't afford to go to school.”

Later on, he got married and had children. He finally had a daughter, but she was diagnosed with leukemia at birth. Even surgery would cost a fortune, which his family couldn't afford!

Upon hearing this, Menglan's brow furrowed, her eyes complex and unreadable.

It's no wonder Xiao Nan would do such a thing. He must be under a lot of financial pressure!

"...."

After listening, Menglan slightly raised her head and looked at Feng Mu with a complex gaze.

To my surprise, he actually understands my emotions so well.

Feng Mu raised a strong arm to tightly hug her waist, leaning into her ear and whispering, "I know you must be heartbroken right now, but don't forget that when you were falsely accused, no one sympathized with you."

"So keep your spirits up, I'll always be with you."

"Thank you," Menglan said, her voice heavy.

When she heard Feng Mu's words, her heart felt as if it were being watered by a warm current, an indescribable warmth.

Initially, she found herself alone in Yun Village. Shortly after her arrival, a landslide struck, filling her with terror. However, when Feng Mu appeared beside her, she felt a sense of security and stability, like finding a piece of driftwood in the midst of a storm.

She no longer felt herself floating.

At that moment, the door to Xiao Nan's house was pushed open. A woman with a plain appearance walked out carrying a basin of water, her eyes wide with surprise as she looked at them.

"Village chief How did you get here"

"Ahui, you're just out. Is Xiaonan at home" The village head hurried forward and asked her in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, a look of caution appeared on Ahui's face.n't let me make him pay!"He spat on the ground, his handsome face flushed with anger, "Damn it! I hope he gets hit by a car when he leaves home, best case scenario is that he's left crippled and impot...
