At this time, a gentle breeze rose, and Wen Zhuqing could feel the wind brushing against his face.
The wind will carry certain things, conveying calls to distant places…
Wen Zhuqing lowered his eyes, enduring the pain, a bloodthirsty curve at the corner of his mouth.
All the humiliation he had suffered, he would return it tenfold later.
Wen Zhuqing looked up, his gaze trying to see past the crowd, falling on those who were searching.
There should be results by now.
Just as he thought that, he heard a voice.
"Nothing was found."
"Nothing out of line was found."
Wen Zhuqing was astonished.
At this moment, he could no longer hide his emotions, his eyes wide open.
How is it possible to find nothing? He clearly placed it in Father Gu's bedside table…
Could it be that these people are protecting the Gu Family?
Wen Zhuqing disregarded the pain in his buttocks, forcefully squeezing through the crowd to go forward.
Upon seeing Father Gu's bedside table pulled open, and inside, only clothes, and more clothes, Wen Zhuqing was incredulous.
"How is this possible, I clearly…"
"Wen Zhiqing, what do you clearly mean?" A voice sounded from beside him, Wen Zhuqing was startled.
Turning his head, he saw Gu Yunzhou.
Meeting Gu Yunzhou's clear, seemingly insightful eyes, Wen Zhuqing's heart fluttered, "No, nothing."
Gu Yunzhou chuckled softly, "They couldn't find any forbidden items, it seems Wen Zhiqing is a little disappointed."
Wen Zhuqing slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, "How is that possible, you're joking."
Gu Yunzhou stared at him, and said nothing more.
At this time, the leading searcher also stepped forward to apologize to Father Gu, saying that it must have been the person who wrote the anonymous letter who was slandering people.
"…If I find out who that person is, I certainly won't let them off."
Speaking, the person secretly rejoiced, thankfully, because of some concerns, they hadn't searched haphazardly.
Otherwise, searching extensively and finding nothing would be a huge loss of face, and would also create enmity with the Gu Family.
They weren't afraid of a Village Chief, but they were somewhat apprehensive about the Gu Family's son-in-law, that Regimental-Level Cadre.
"It's good that there's nothing."
"I knew the Village Chief and the others are good people."
"I don't know who wrote the anonymous letter, if I knew who it was, I'd beat them to death."
"It must be one of the people here, I just don't know who."
The villagers discussed amongst themselves, their gazes scanning the surrounding people.
The person who wrote the anonymous letter, is like a poisonous snake, lurking in the dark beside them, waiting for the right moment to bite them.
It's the Village Chief's family now, but who knows, might others be targeted unintentionally?
Not everyone is as lucky as the Village Chief and them.
Those are forbidden books.
If they're really found, it's all over.
More suspicious glances fell on the Intellectual Youths.
Who else, those Intellectual Youths are the most cultured, uncultured people couldn't write anonymous letters.
The villagers of Huaihua Village, tracing back, mostly share the same ancestor, and still have some blood relations.
Even those who moved here later, after living here for a long time, have developed feelings for the place.
Even if there are occasional arguments, there are no deep-seated hatreds, not enough to do such harmful things.
But these Intellectual Youths might be different.
The Intellectual Youths who were suspected couldn't help but feel extremely aggrieved and helpless.
Just when everyone thought that the searchers wouldn't find anything in the Gu Family house and would leave, they suddenly heard them loudly ask: "Who is Wen Zhuqing, where is Bao Shan Yan's house?"
Everyone was startled, and then the crowd spontaneously made way.
Revealing Bao Shan Yan and Wen Zhuqing.
Wen Zhuqing was dumbfounded, what's going on?
Bao Shan Yan was also confused.
Soon they understood.
"We also received another anonymous letter, saying that Wen Zhuqing and his wife also hid forbidden books."
No way, there's another one!
Before Wen Zhuqing and Bao Shan Yan could react, those people already knew where the Bao Family lived, immediately leaving the Gu Family house and heading towards the Bao Family house.
And the villagers, naturally, didn't leave either, and followed them.
Wen Zhuqing and Bao Shan Yan also gritted their teeth and followed.
Wen Zhuqing's mind was in a complete mess.
He didn't understand, why the Gu Family, where the forbidden books should have been found, had nothing found.
Also, he only wrote one letter reporting the Gu Family, how could there be another letter, reporting him and Bao Shan Yan?
Wen Zhuqing felt that things were slipping out of his control, and watching them head towards the Bao Family, his bad premonition grew stronger.
His gaze involuntarily fell on the Gu Family house.
Soon, he met Gu Yunzhou's gaze, the latter's gaze seemed unperturbed, his face didn't show much expression, but when Wen Zhuqing looked at him, the corner of his mouth curled up into a meaningful arc.
Wen Zhuqing's eyes widened, his heart suddenly sank, and his brain felt like it was hammered by a hammer, instantly understanding.
Undoubtedly, Wen Zhuqing was smart.
And at this moment, he realized something.
The Gu Family knew!
The Gu Family knew his plan.
Everything just now was the Gu Family acting.
The Gu Family knew his plan, so those people wouldn't find anything in the Gu Family house.
And after the Gu Family learned of his plan, they chose to turn the tables.
Wen Zhuqing was certain that the other anonymous letter reporting him and Bao Shan Yan must have been written by the Gu Family.
Since no forbidden books were found in the Gu Family house, does that mean…
It's over!
At this moment, Wen Zhuqing was truly panicked, his hands trembling slightly.
He could be 100% certain that the items are now in the Bao Family house, in his and Bao Shan Yan's house.
If they are found, then…
Thinking of the consequences, Wen Zhiqing felt a chill run down his spine.
He hurriedly walked to Bao Shan Yan's side and whispered, "Yanzi, go stop them, you must stop them, don't let them search."
Bao Shan Yan frowned and looked at Wen Zhuqing.
At first, she was a little confused, but after realizing it, she also knew that if they could be stopped from searching, it would be best.
But if they couldn't be persuaded, there was nothing she could do, after all, the Gu Family, as the Village Chief's family, was also searched.
And she had no background.
However, Bao Shan Yan considered herself innocent, and hadn't hidden anything bad, so even if they searched, she wasn't afraid.
But seeing Wen Zhuqing's panicked appearance, she became uncertain.
Bao Shan Yan wasn't stupid either.
Seeing Wen Zhuqing's appearance, how could she not know that there was something fishy going on.
Could it be, could it be that something would really be found in her house?
If that's the case…
At the thought of that situation, the usually fearless Bao Shan Yan panicked.
"What's going on, tell me clearly!" Bao Shan Yan gritted her teeth.
"
