888 Actually Getting Into a Fight

Cao Gang reached out his hand to Li Gui and said, "Sister, let me give you a hand. It's cold on the ground, get up quickly."

Li Gui did not reject Cao Gang's good intentions. With Cao Gang's help, she slowly stood up and did a simple stretch to see if she felt any discomfort.

Other than the fact that her clothes were a little damp from sitting on the ground, she felt fine and did not seem to have any injuries.

"Sister, you should go home and check again. It's so cold now and you might not feel anything even if you're injured. You can take a look after you go home and get some rest for the night. If there's anything wrong, call me and I'll talk to the police," Cao Gang said.

"Director Cao, you're too polite. Thank you so much for what you did today." After saying that, Li Gui looked around and took out some popcorn from the basket. She wanted to give it to Cao Gang.

"No! No! Sister, quickly put it back! It's only right for us to help you. How can we accept your things!" Cao Gang declined.

Li Gui still stuffed the things into Cao Gang's hand and said, "These are just corn that I planted at home. Take it as a token of my appreciation for your help!"

"Sister, we're still at work. How can we take things from you! Hurry up and take them back!" Cao Gang said as he tugged at the armband on his arm.

Li Gui immediately understood. There was still a crowd around. If other people witnessed the gesture, no one knew what kind of rumors would spread tomorrow. Cao Gang might even be branded as a person who took bribes.

It was better to send the gifts after Cao Gang and the others got off work. This way, she could get it done and yet not make things difficult for Cao Gang and the others.

Cao Gang seemed to be able to tell what Li Gui was thinking and quickly said, "Sister, you also can't do it after we get off work! Why don't you give us more the next time we come to buy from you? We like to eat the seeds you sell!"

Li Gui quickly nodded and said, "Fine, fine, fine! I'll keep all the seeds at home aside for you! I'll sell you at the cost price!"

Actually, the remaining seeds at Li Gui's house were meant for everyone to eat during the new year. This way, she would not have to spend money to buy new year goodies. However, Cao Gang had helped her so much, so she had to thank him properly.

After Cao Gang gave Li Gui a few pointers, he asked her to hurry home. Money was not as important as her life.

After what happened today, she would not be able to carry on with the business tonight. Li Gui's clothes were already drenched. If she did not go back soon, she would definitely fall sick. She dragged the heavy basket and walked home.

Qiao Yu noted all of this. She did not know what kind of conflict Li Gui had with Su Yang's family. From what she heard just now, it seemed that Su Yang and Su Liang were injured because of Li Gui, which was why these two families had formed a grudge.

However, why was it that only Old Madam Fan, Su Liang and Su Yang were taken away while nothing happened to Li Gui? It was as if this matter had nothing to do with her at all.

It seemed that the people in charge of the movie theater were all in cahoots with one another. They all sided with Li Gui.

Qiao Yu did not continue to follow Li Gui home. After watching the commotion for a while, she was already shivering from the cold. Li Gui could not run away anyway. If there was really no other way, she would go and ask Su Yang if he knew Li Gui's address. If she did not return to the dormitory soon, she would really freeze to death in the snow.

When Li Gui returned home, her clothes were already slightly frozen. The jacket that she took off could even stand upright on the ground. Qiao Mei looked at Li Gui in confusion. Did she get chased by wolves?

"Mom, what happened to you?" Qiao Mei asked.

Li Gui did not answer Qiao Mei's question. Instead, she went back into the room to change her clothes. Trembling, she covered herself with a small blanket and squatted by the fireplace to warm herself.

"I got into a fight with someone. My clothes got soaked in the snow," Li Gui said lightly.

For a moment, Qiao Mei did not know how to digest what Li Gui said. There was too much information. Li Gui actually got into a fight. Her previously weak mother actually got into a fight with someone!

"Who is it? Who bullied you?" Qiao Mei asked angrily.
