Chapter 1489: Insider

Ye Jian smiled at Li E. Wang Gui, whose chest was hurting, stood up and said lightly, “Let me cook some noodles for you. My husband went to play some cards tonight, so he asked me to cook dinner early. I can only let my sister eat noodles.”

Li E stood up too and apologized with a fake smile, “Thank you for your hard work. I will sleep upstairs with my little sister tonight.”

Then, she looked at the open door. As she walked towards the door, she said, “Who would still go out to buy things so late at night? If the door is open so late at night, the little sister from the city might be a little scared. I’ll lock the door.”

This was to prevent Ye Jian from leaving.

At this moment, no matter how unhappy Wang Gui was with Li E, she had to agree. “Sure, lock it. Recently, the streets have not been peaceful. The local gangsters in the county are getting more and more lawless. They even dare to come to other people’s shops to ask for money.”

“Brother likes to go out at night to play mahjong. Be careful when you’re alone at home. Don’t get bullied.” Li E’s words were sarcastic. She was a promiscuous woman. No wonder the gangsters in the county liked to come to her house!

The door was locked. Li E said, “I will go to the kitchen to take a look.” She felt at ease leaving Ye Jian alone while she followed Wang Gui into the kitchen.

Ye Jian looked at their back view as they left. The smile on her face turned cold. Then, she stood up quietly.

It was not difficult for her to deal with Li E and Wang Gui.

“Hey, our house is small. Don’t dirty your clothes.” Wang Gui, who was washing the pot, said in a weird tone. Her strength was so great that it seemed like she wanted to wipe off a layer of Li E’s skin. “The Grand Commissioner called. Tomorrow morning, he will send someone to fetch you. He asked for you to bring everything.”

She wondered how the commissioner was doing. He really missed a woman who was almost 40 years old!

Li E didn’t enter the kitchen. She leaned against the door and flicked the cover lazily. “I brought everything. Did he say anything else?”

“He didn’t say anything else. Based on your stupid idea last time, you managed to get rid of a few policemen who entered the village. Now, you’ve kept the Grand Commissioner busy!” Wang Gui washed the pot even harder.

She probably took the blame for someone she didn’t like.

Li E’s expression darkened when she heard her mention the previous incident. “Hasn’t everything been settled? Why? Is there a problem?”

Outside, Ye Jian clenched her fists tightly. Her black eyes were cold and sharp.

Li E killed the police officers!

Ye Jian, whose back was against the cold wall, let out a sigh and continued listening to the conversation inside.

Suddenly, Ye Jian moved and returned to her original position at the fastest and lightest speed.

Li E walked out gently and glanced outside secretly. When she saw that Ye Jian was sitting properly, she felt at ease and returned to the kitchen.

“What’s there to see? She’s already in your hands. Can she still escape?” Wang Gui grabbed the onions and sprinkled them into the bowl. She turned her head and looked at the cautious Li E. She lowered her voice and mocked, “I don’t know if there’s a problem, but I know that the county hasn’t been very quiet recently. My mahjong buddy at the bus station said that she doesn’t look like an ordinary person.”

Li E’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Ever since the police officers in the village were dealt with, she had never felt at ease.

It turned out that she would only be able to come two days later. When she received the call that day, she immediately left. She didn’t bring anything but her passbook.
