"We don’t have any evidence, and it’s possible that Ge Lai escaped on his own, he must have feigned illness to deceive us," Liu Haiguo said.
"This Guoqiang is not simple; Dad used to say, do you remember? Dad said back then that Guoqiang shouldn’t be offended."
"It’s the same with Guoqiang, although Gao Jiaxing does have some abilities," Liu Haiguo said.
"So today we did offend them," Liu Haihua said.
Liu Haiguo, wearing a gloomy expression, blamed Liu Haihua, "It’s all because of you, insisting on going in."
"Then why didn’t you stop me?" Liu Haihua glared.
Liu Haiguo said, "Offending the Gao family doesn’t matter, they won’t hold grudges or play dirty. Wang Xueyong is the one we shouldn’t offend, no matter what, we have to find Ge Lai."
Liu Haihua rolled her eyes at Liu Haiguo, then turned to him and asked, "Wang Xueyong is quite nice, he’s not as bad as you say."
Liu Haiguo didn’t speak again. When they passed by the graveyard, Liu Haihua said, "We haven’t searched over by the graveyard yet."
"Alright, you take people there." Liu Haiguo was too afraid to go to that part of the graveyard.
"Brother, how can you be so useless? If Ge Lai escapes, and he comes back to seek revenge, we’ll be done for," Liu Haihua whispered.
"If you’re capable then you go, I’m not going," Liu Haiguo shook his head.
"Fine, you wait here, I’ll take people over to check," Liu Haihua said.
Liu Haiguo was waiting, and Liu Haihua led people to the graveyard, but they weren’t truly fearless; those who dared to follow her were a new batch of educated youth, who hadn’t heard about the graveyard’s incidents.
The area was close to a forest, and the trees here were very dense, blocking the sunlight, making it appear somewhat gloomy.
Suddenly, the quiet area was disturbed by the voices of Liu Haihua and her group, causing Ge Lai to startle and open his eyes, which were now filled with hatred.
"Ah," suddenly someone screamed.
The graveyard had been dug up by Liu Haiguo and his group before; even though Gao Jiaxing and his group had restored it, the soil was still somewhat loose compared to before.
A female educated youth stepped in and immediately sunk in, screaming in terror.
Seeing this, Liu Haihua was also startled and said, "Quick, pull her out."
Someone tried to pull the female educated youth out, but also felt the ground sinking and immediately dared not continue.
"Save me, sob, save me," the female educated youth cried.
Liu Haihua didn’t dare go over herself, instead shouting, "Climb out by yourself."
With a bang, a tombstone suddenly collapsed, causing everyone to scream in panic, Liu Haihua included, who ran away.
Everyone scattered like birds, and the female educated youth, terrified, ran by crawling desperately.
If someone had looked back carefully at that moment, they would have seen Ge Lai, but no one dared look back, everyone ran.
Ge Lai did not stay in the graveyard long; his injuries had mysteriously improved a bit. It wasn’t that he didn’t want revenge; he wished he could kill Liu Haiguo and Liu Haihua, but a gentleman’s revenge can wait ten years, and he, Ge Lai, remembered this debt.
At the moment, Ge Lai was also afraid that Liu Haiguo and the others might return, so he quietly left with the water bottle and money given by Gao Jiaxing.
Liu Haiguo watched Liu Haihua and her group return in shock and said, "That part of the graveyard is cursed, I don’t even dare to go there."
Suddenly Liu Haihua said, "Brother, Ge Lai must be hiding there, let’s go back quickly, really, he must have caused that tombstone to fall."
"Impossible," Liu Haiguo said, feeling a bit doubtful, worrying if Ge Lai really was hiding in the graveyard.
Liu Haihua, pulling Liu Haiguo along, insisted, "It must be, we have enough people, we’re not afraid of ghosts, let’s go back and check."
Fortunately, Ge Lai had already left by then, so when Liu Haihua and the others returned, they did not find Ge Lai, and not daring to stay long, they quickly scanned the area, found no one, and hurriedly ran off.
At the Gao family’s side, despite the influence of people from the Red Star Production Team, Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao getting their marriage certificate brought congratulations, and smiles appeared on the faces of Guoqiang and Zheng Xianghong.
"Dad, Mom, big brother, sister-in-law."
"Big sister, brother-in-law, second sister, second brother-in-law."
Xia Xiao, coaxed by everyone to change how she addressed them, didn’t mind, but was somewhat shy.
Xia Xiao’s cheeks were naturally rosy that day, not needing any rouge. She hadn’t realized she blushed easily before, but recently, her face seemed to heat up frequently.
After everyone dispersed, the couple returned to their room, and Gao Jiaxing patted the bed, saying to Xia Xiao, "See, it’s solid, I’ve nailed it down myself."
Xia Xiao glared at him, and Gao Jiaxing reached out to embrace her, but Xia Xiao pushed his hand away, saying, "It’s broad daylight, don’t mess around, I’m going to help Mom with cooking."
"You’re a new bride, just sit tight," Gao Jiaxing said, pulling Xia Xiao’s hand and embracing her in his arms, then comfortably sighed, "You should be accompanying me today."
Xia Xiao quietly lay in Gao Jiaxing’s arms, then whispered softly, "Brother Gao, are you worried about Ge Lai?"
Gao Jiaxing shook his head, "No worries, Ge Lai has definitely left."
Xia Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, really afraid Gao Jiaxing couldn’t let it go and would go looking for Ge Lai.
"Ge Lai has been an orphan since he was little, growing up on his own; as long as he’s alive, he can survive anywhere. When he was little, he once went missing for half a month; everyone thought he was dead, but it turned out he got lost in the mountains."
"How old was he then?" Xia Xiao asked.
Gao Jiaxing nodded, "Ge Lai is a notable person, mark my words, Liu Haiguo and Liu Haihua will regret it in the future."
Xia Xiao nodded, disliking the Liu siblings greatly.
"Brother Gao, you were planning to go save him yesterday, I thought you would vindicate Ge Lai," Xia Xiao whispered softly.
Gao Jiaxing shook his head, "Yesterday, I came back and spoke with My brother about Ge Lai’s situation; it’s complicated, so I really was considering sneaking over to assess the situation and find a chance to save him, but unexpectedly, I ran into him when he was unconscious on the way."
"Brother Gao, next time you do something so risky, you must call me to join, understand?"
As Xia Xiao spoke, Gao Jiaxing shook his head, "It would be dangerous to bring you."
