Chapter 185: 184 is a person who keeps their word.Xiaofeng called Liao Xianghe over, tasked him to arrange for Tie Bao and two others, and then walked into the office with Director Zhou. Having worked here for a few days, Liao Xianghe’s thuggish demeanor had subdued slightly. When he saw Tie Bao, he immediately recognized the latter as someone who must have also been a gangster before. This was getting interesting, so many gangsters were following Su Xiaofeng—she must really have something special. Liao Xianghe glanced at the three men, "Haven’t had dinner yet, right? Come with me to eat first." The three exchanged looks and reached a conclusion; the man before them was probably no pushover, but regardless, they would eat first. ... "I also know what Sister He is thinking, she said that if the factory really had an issue, she didn’t want to implicate you and Su Peng, so she went to the police station alone." Sister He was fine at noon, just went home to have lunch, and when she returned she had completely changed. He had tried to persuade her, but Sister He just wouldn’t listen, leaving him with no choice but to wait at the door for President Su, hoping she could solve this upon her return. "Where is the barrel of discarded material?" Xiaofeng pondered for a long while before asking. "In the scrap room." Director Zhou stood up and led Xiaofeng there, "After the Silver Needles test showed it was toxic, I dared not continue production, so I had Xianghe move it to the scrap room." In the scrap room, a barrel that had been tightly sealed originally was somehow opened, and someone had dug a big hole in the middle, removing a large chunk of its contents. "This..." Director Zhou was astonished. "No need to look further, Aunt must have thought that going to confess herself wouldn’t be convincing enough, and she took the evidence with her." He Ximei probably wouldn’t have done something this foolish. Then why would she do this, wasn’t this blatantly signaling to everyone that there was a problem with the raw materials at the food factory? "What is Sister He trying to do?" Director Zhou was really anxious, the authorities had only taken those potentially problematic raw materials, which might not have been a real issue yet. But Sister He directly took the problematic finished products, essentially handing over the evidence to the other party. Usually, Sister He seemed like a sharp woman; how could she act foolishly at such a critical moment? Su Xiaofeng checked the time, it was past five in the afternoon, meaning that the relevant offices had already closed, there was no point in trying to find anyone now. "I’m going to the police station to see what’s going on, let everyone else go home." Since she had encountered Captain Hong of the police station several times, perhaps he could give her some information. As she left, Liao Xianghe took Tie Bao and the others for a meal, while Ye Cheng was at the entrance preparing to drive the truck away. "Ye Cheng," Su Xiaofeng expertly got into the vehicle, "take me to the police station." Ye Cheng looked at her, not understanding why she would suddenly want to go to the police station. "My aunt took a can of problematic product to surrender herself," Su Xiaofeng said with a note of helplessness in her voice. The reason was not hard to guess. The problematic raw materials had been procured by Pengzi and her dad, and He Ximei probably worried that if the raw materials were indeed problematic, up above might hold Pengzi and her dad responsible, so she went ahead. Ye Cheng drove carefully while Xiaofeng took this opportunity to communicate with Xiaoqi, "Xiaoqi, the products my aunt took, can you neutralize the toxin inside them?" "Master, the underground spring water in our Space Forest has detoxifying properties, just a few drops will neutralize any toxin." With that answer, Xiaofeng felt reassured. Upon reaching the police station, He Ximei was seen at the entrance struggling with someone. Captain Hong stood at the door, impatience filling his eyes, "What is this nonsense, I can’t understand a thing you’re saying, you’re clearly making trouble out of nothing. Come on, leave, hurry up and go." "Do they really think he has nothing better to do, meddling in everything?" He Ximei, seeing that Captain Hong was ignoring her, grew anxious, "Captain Hong, this is serious. There really is a problem with my products, the responsibility is on me. Shouldn’t you detain me for a few days to check if there really is an issue?" "Captain." An employee stepped forward, "I don’t think she’s lying. Why not have someone come over to test it and see if there really is a problem with what she’s holding? If there is indeed a problem, then this is serious." Captain Hong waved his hand, "Take her in and get someone to come test it." Captain Hong stood at the door for a while, unable to understand what He Ximei was really up to, when Su Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng stopped him at the door. "Captain Hong." Seeing Ye Cheng by Su Xiaofeng’s side, Captain Hong instinctively straightened up, "Oh, Miss Su, what can I do for you?" At the same time, the relevant laboratory personnel also arrived. As the laboratory personnel opened the bottle cap, Su Xiaofeng’s heart also rose to her throat. He Ximei was so scared that she was sweating profusely, clutching her hands tightly. Half an hour later, the laboratory personnel looked up, "Aren’t you scaring yourselves? There’s nothing wrong with this, it’s perfectly normal." Upon hearing the laboratory personnel’s words, He Ximei was somewhat unsure, "Really? There’s no problem?" Then what about the Silver Needles at home, could it have been a mistake? "Of course, there’s nothing wrong." The laboratory personnel screwed the cap back on and stood up to reply to Captain Hong. "Alright, since there’s no problem, everyone should get back to what they were doing, we need to close up too." He had seen honesty before, but he had never seen anyone as earnest as this woman, insisting their own products were faulty. He really thought there was a problem with these products; it had given him quite the scare. Xiaofeng didn’t look at He Ximei, thanked everyone, and left directly with Ye Cheng. He Ximei hastily grabbed her things and chased after them, "Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng, I..." Thinking back, her behavior had been truly foolish. If there was nothing wrong, it was still fine, but if there had been a problem, trying to pin the responsibility would not have fallen on her anyway. Back at the factory, Uncle Zhou hadn’t left yet, Liao Xianghe along with Tie Bao and a few others had just returned from eating out. "So, everything is fine, right?" Factory Manager Zhou approached to inquire as he saw people returning. "Uncle Zhou, it’s all good now, you can go off work too." "Alright, seeing you all return, I can finally relax." Factory Manager Zhou, seeing He Ximei come in behind and confirming everything was truly fine, was ready to leave work. "Xiaofeng." He Ximei admitted that her actions earlier had been somewhat foolish, she hadn’t thought much about it at the time, only that if there was a real problem, she would step forward and take the blame, "I..." "You’re not an impulsive person. With your impulsiveness today, did someone tell you something?" Xiaofeng asked directly. He Ximei hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Luo Yuzhu came to see me." "Auntie, how can I dare to involve you in the factory’s production in the future? Just because others suggest it, doesn’t mean it will happen. It was good that nothing happened today, but if there had been a problem, wouldn’t that just play into others’ schemes?"

She even mentioned that you are the factory’s person in charge and Pengzi is one of the purchasers. If something really went wrong, both you and Pengzi wouldn’t be able to escape responsibility. I was just worried and thought of taking the blame myself." Though she might have been impulsive, the result turned out to be good, didn’t it?
