Granny Qi couldn’t worry about anything else, cast a glance under the bed, and hurriedly got off to put on her shoes: "Son, I accidentally overheard Director Feng talking to his wife about Vice Factory Director Huo being transferred back to Beijing, and his wife leaving after the college entrance exam, so I thought..."
She didn’t have the nerve to finish her sentence.
Qi Guoqing was visibly angry: "Mom, you are really muddle-headed, how could you dare do that?"
Granny Qi, knowing she was at fault, didn’t dare argue: "Son, what should I do now?"
Qi Guoqing let out a heavy breath, deeply agitated: "When you do something wrong, you naturally have to face the consequences. Doctor Chu wants you to return the items intact and apologize in front of the Security Department. If not, the only option is to call the police."
Upon hearing about calling the police, Granny Qi’s body softened, almost collapsing to the ground.
Fortunately, her sister-in-law next to her supported her, allowing her to sit on the edge of the bed: "Guoqing, I’ll return everything, but don’t let them call the police. I’m old, it’s not about me, but how will you and the kids have any face in the future?"
Qi Guoqing became even more angry upon hearing this: "Where were you all this time?"
Then Granny Qi remembered something and suddenly looked at the two bedcovers placed on the bed: "Oh no, those covers were sealed with a circle of double happiness characters cut out from red paper, which I accidentally tore."
Now Qi Guoqing understood why Doctor Chu repeatedly emphasized returning them ’intact’; clearly, she had anticipated the outcome long ago.
The Jia family was confused by what they heard, but they understood that there was likely something dubious about the covers on the bed.
Jia Laosan stepped forward: "Sis, what’s going on exactly?"

Kang Siya was sharp; over the years, their elder sister-in-law couldn’t support them frequently because the nephew had a job and was well-off. If this incident impacted the nephew’s job, they wouldn’t dare approach him in the future.
