My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 698 698: Holding On to a Final Thread of Hope

Chen Xuan returned to Raoli Village with Widow Liu, arriving at her home.

A typical brick-and-tile house, with a rundown small courtyard, overgrown with weeds.

From Widow Liu's house, it was not hard to tell that the previous living conditions were fairly decent.

Although not wealthy, it was perfectly fine within the village.

It must have been following Li Ke's accidental death that the family fell into decline.

It's inevitable, losing the family's pillar suddenly; Widow Liu had to bear enormous pressure.

Without the heart to manage household affairs.

"Brother Chen Xuan, please make yourselves comfortable. There's not much at home to entertain you, I apologize for the embarrassment." Widow Liu said with a face of apology, looking desolate.

Chen Xuan could basically see that Widow Liu and Li Ke probably hadn't planned on having children; otherwise, Widow Liu wouldn't have chosen to take the path to the Dragon Head incense.

"Sister Liu, please tell me the details again."

"Especially the responsible parties, don't leave anyone out; tell me everything."

Chen Xuan said softly.

"Okay, I'll tell you everything." Widow Liu wiped her tears silently, and began to speak slowly.

Chen Xuan listened while secretly noting down the names mentioned by Widow Liu.

"That's how it is; someone saw the situation back then—it was the big boss driving the car."

"But they're afraid of revenge from the big boss and don't dare to come out to testify for me."

Widow Liu cried softly, "I'm just a weak woman; I can't fight him. I've run around for years, unable to get justice for my husband."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Sister Liu, I've noted the details you just mentioned."

"Now, tell me your specific demands; there's no one else around here. Feel free to speak openly."

"You don't need to feel constrained; say what you want to say! For instance, if you want to kill that big boss for revenge, it's okay too."

Widow Liu smiled bitterly and shook her head, "What's the use of killing him? My husband can't come back to life; I just want him to be brought to justice."

"And prove to everyone that it wasn't my husband who caused the crash and almost killed that big boss in the accident. Prove my husband's innocence, give him justice."

"I can't let my husband die and still bear the bad name for the culprit big boss!"

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Alright, I understand your demands."

"Sister Liu, I'll handle this matter; please rest assured and patiently wait for news."

"Don't do anything foolish again; do you understand?"

Widow Liu, full of gratitude, knelt down to Chen Xuan again, "Thank you."

"Sister Liu, what are you doing, please get up." Chen Xuan hurriedly helped her up.

Then, he motioned for Yang Leshan and Xiao Yiyi to leave.

At this moment, many villagers had gathered at Widow Liu's door.

Chen Xuan nodded slightly in greeting, and left directly.

"Just leaving like that? What's he going to do?"

"What else can he do? Just leave! Does he plan to sue that big boss?"

"Sigh, it's just a formality, to comfort Widow Liu, that's all. Don't take it seriously."

"No matter what, he managed to save Widow Liu today. It's just unknown what will happen in the future?"

Many people shook their heads, assuming Chen Xuan left like that and would never return to handle Widow Liu's affairs.

Inside, Widow Liu heard the villagers' discussions, and her heart instantly sank halfway.

She didn't know whether to trust Chen Xuan's words.

But Chen Xuan spoke so confidently, that she still held onto one last hope, patiently waiting at home for news.

It was also her final mental solace, hoping Chen Xuan was indeed sent by heaven to save her...

At that moment.

Chen Xuan and the others left Raoli Village, returning to the village where Wang Yunping was located.

Wang Yunping hurriedly came over, whispering advice: "Brother Chen, don't blame me for being nosy, even though I sympathize with Widow Liu, but this matter... it's best for you not to get involved."

"That Zhao boss isn't easy to deal with; once you intervene, it's attracting unnecessary trouble for yourself."

At this point, Wang Yunping deliberately lowered his voice and warned softly, "Brother Chen, I've heard that Zhao boss had killed someone! Just no evidence was left, he always found others to do it!"

Chen Xuan chuckled, patting Wang Yunping's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Brother Yunping, thanks for the warning; I'm not afraid of any form of threat."

"I've already promised to get justice for Widow Liu; I absolutely cannot go back on my word."

Wang Yunping grinned non-stop, "Brother Chen, you're really warm-hearted. You resolved our family's crisis, and now came across Widow Liu's matter."

"I don't even know what to say; just hope Brother Chen you handle it carefully; don't underestimate Zhao boss, he's not a good person!"

Chen Xuan smiled slightly, "Alright, I'll remember that."
