Because they didn’t see the face, they asked the police who it was. The police answered that it was the female owner of the house.
Some also asked how she died, but the police refused to tell them the details, so they stopped asking.
After witnessing the body of the female owner of the house being carried away, they didn’t dare to stay by house No. 35 any longer and immediately left.
Someone just died here, so it might cause them bad luck.
People who lived next to house No. 35 might not be able to sleep well the next few days.
It was horrifying that someone died not far from them. Even though they didn’t believe in ghosts, they couldn’t stop thinking about that. Besides, it was their neighbor who died!
Zhang Jingnan told two of his men to stay in the house. Before they caught the male owner, they couldn’t leave, because the male owner might sneak back and pack his stuff before running away.
…
Gu Ning and the others rested for a while after having breakfast, then they went to visit Gu Man in the hospital.
In the hospital, Jing Yunyao told Gu Man and Tang Yunfan that they had settled on a good date for Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting’s engagement. Gu Man and Tang Yunfan were happy to hear that.
It was only the end of January and was still early, so they would wait until it was almost the day to prepare. Moreover, they had already prepared everything for the engagement, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting didn’t need to do anything.
Tang Yunfan had something to deal with today, so he left after lunch. Jing Yunyao was free, so she stayed to look after Gu Man.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting rarely saw each other, so Jing Yunyao told them to go out and have a date. Even Gu Man wanted them to have some private time.
Because Jing Yunyao was taking care of Gu Man, they didn’t need to worry about her safety so they happily went on a date outside.
However, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting didn’t walk far. There was a park not far from the hospital, so they went for a walk in the park.
At the same time, the female corpse was taken to a branch of the Public Security Bureau. Zhang Jingnan found the number of the dead woman’s family, then called them.
The dead woman’s parents almost fainted when they heard that their daughter was dead. The terrible news hit them heavily.
…
After taking Gu Ning’s power crystal, the man who was bitten by the crazy dog was fine. However, the crazy dog had injured him in many places after all, so the doctor told him to stay in the hospital for a few more days.
A policeman also came to see him to get his statement, but the police hadn’t caught the owner of the dog yet. After the police caught the dog owner, the man would receive the compensation.
Although residents in Huafu Hills didn’t lack money, it was the dog owner’s responsibility to pay the compensation.

In City F.
In the morning, a doctor came to check Old Mrs. Gu’s condition.
Because Old Mrs. Gu’s condition had worsened before, the doctor paid more attention to it now. If there was anything wrong, he would know right away.
However, when the doctor gave Old Mrs. Gu a medical check, he surprisingly found that her condition wasn’t worsening, but was improving instead.
Without delay, the doctor called Gu Qinxiang and told him the good news.
Gu Qinxiang was astonished. He believed that Gu Ning’s medicine could help his mother stay alive, but he didn’t expect his mother to become better.
Hurriedly, Gu Qinxiang rushed to the hospital and called Gu Qing to share the good news with her. Gu Qing was also very surprised and immediately went to the hospital.
The doctor didn’t know that Old Mrs. Gu had taken a special medicine, so he felt that it was a miracle. Only Gu Qinxiang and Gu Qing were aware that it was the effect of the medicine.
In the ward. When the doctor was gone, Gu Qinxiang asked, “Qing, can our mother wake up one day?”
He somehow felt that his mother could wake up one day in the future.
Old Mrs. Gu just took a pill and yet she got so much better. Gu Qingxiang had another pill in his hands, so he thought that his mother might be able to wake up after taking the second pill.
“I don’t know, but I feel it’s too difficult,” said Gu Qing.
Although she didn’t think it was very likely, she would be happy to see her mother wake up. However, if her mother still treated her as badly as before, she wouldn’t take care of her.
Old Mrs. Gu had almost lost her life, but it didn’t mean that she would cherish her life after she woke up.
“If our mother really wakes up, I hope she can change her attitude. I don’t expect her to be grateful to Ningning. I just hope she can stop attacking Ningning. It’s not bad if they treat each other as strangers,” said Gu Qing.
If Old Mrs. Gu woke up, Gu Qinxiang wasn’t sure whether his mother would make some changes as Gu Qing said. Would their mother stop bad-mouthing Gu Ning? Could they regard each other as strangers?
Gu Ning had already treated them very fairly, so they shouldn’t cause her more trouble.
“If our mother really wakes up, I think we should stop her from seeing Ningning and Man again, unless they want to see her,” said Gu Qinxiang.
“You’re right.” Gu Qing nodded.
After staying there for a while, they left.
Because Old Mrs. Gu was in a vegetative state, they didn’t need to look after her in person. They paid a nurse to do it for them.
Gu Qing didn’t tell Gu Ning that Old Mrs. Gu was getting better, because she understood that Gu Ning didn’t want to know anything about Old Mrs. Gu. Therefore, she decided to say nothing and tried to not upset Gu Ning.
She didn’t tell Gu Man either, because she was afraid that it might affect Gu Man’s mood if she brought up their mother.
…
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to the hospital after wandering in the park for two hours.
And at 5 pm, Leng Shaoting received Zhang Jingnan’s call. Zhang Jingnan told him that they had caught the male owner of the house, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting immediately rushed over.
When they arrived at the Pucheng District Public Security Bureau, Zhang Jingnan walked out to welcome them in person. Other people didn’t know who they were, so it aroused their curiosity.
They didn’t recognize Leng Shaoting, but many of them recognized Gu Ning.
In their bureau, many people were Gu Ning’s fans.
“Oh, isn’t that Miss Gu?”
“Right, it’s Miss Gu! She’s much prettier than her photos!”
“Yes! Most importantly, she has become so successful at such a young age. She’s my idol!”
“…”
However, because of Zhang Jingnan’s presence, they didn’t dare to talk to Gu Ning..
