Chapter 2305 Murder

Xiang Lei's return also caused a big shock.

The first thing Xiang Lei did when he came back was to visit the gray-haired Mr. Guo.

"Mr. Guo, how have you been doing these past few years?" Xiang Lei said with a smile.

"You...you are Xiang Lei!" Mr. Guo was very surprised, "Why..."

Xiang Lei said with a smile: "Mr. Guo, don't be so surprised. Over the years, the students have done some business outside, and now they have made some achievements. I came here specially to see you. Come here, give me the four treasures of the study that I bought with a lot of money from Dahe Prefecture." Presented by Mr. Guo!”

Xuan brush, magpie ink, Kyoto cicada-winged paper...the four precious treasures of the study were presented one after another.

Although Mr. Guo is a noble man, he can't put it down for these literati things, and he feels itchy looking at these treasures.

Xiang Lei smiled and said: "Mr. Guo, this is the student's wish. Just accept it."

Mr. Guo said: "No, no, how can I accept your things for no reason?"

Xiang Lei said with a smile: "Mr. Guo is my teacher, what's wrong with students being filial to their teachers? Besides, this time I return to Fenghe Village to build schools and hire teachers to promote education so that more poor children can afford to go to school. Books, read good books. It is up to you, Mr. Guo, to take charge of the overall affairs of the school. These small gifts are my thanks to Mr. Guo, so please don’t refuse." wavv

Only then did Mr. Guo accept the gift.

Based on this incident alone, Xiang Lei's reputation in Fenghe Village immediately changed drastically.

From an uneducated naughty thug before, he has become a big businessman who turns back his prodigal son, works hard, and respects his teachers.

Even a respected person like Mr. Guo is praising him, how can the villagers of Fenghe Village not believe it?

In addition, Xiang Lei also used his abundant financial resources to support a large number of poor people and help them overcome difficulties, which earned him unanimous praise from the villagers.

Xiang Lei secretly rejoiced, "Success is getting closer and closer to me. Now that I am a good person in Fenghe Village, it will be easy to kill Li Yanhui. No one will doubt that it was me, a good person, who did it. Once Li Yanhui died, the attack Zhou Qiurong is also able to catch him. However, I heard that this guy Li Hanxue has actually won the Jinshi and is still serving as the county magistrate in the county. If he interferes with it, it may be a bit difficult. But it is not a big problem. It will be easy for me to kill him now. matter."

…

"Sir, Xiang Lei is back." The spy Li Hanxue sent out hurriedly came back to report.

"He is indeed back!" Li Hanxue stood up suddenly, "Keep a close eye on this person!"

"Yes, sir."

After the day's work, Li Hanxue was ready to go home for dinner. Although he was now the county magistrate, he still lived in the original Fenghe Village, but his house had been rebuilt and made it much more grand.

It was a dark and windy night, and when Li Hanxue got off the carriage to relieve himself, the dream demon behind him suddenly trembled crazily, and an extreme murderous intention came from behind!

A flash of snow-white sword light came suddenly. Li Hanxue was shocked and rolled over the horse's belly.

The knife hit the soil hard. At this time, Sun Ming, the groom who was also Li Hanxue's personal bodyguard, reacted. He hurriedly drew his knife and stood in front of the killer, "Where is this madman? Dare to attack Mr. Li!"

The masked killer missed a single hit and immediately turned around and ran away.

"Don't run away, evil thief!" Sun Ming raised his knife and chased after him.

Li Hanxue shouted: "Sun Ming, don't chase!"

"Sir, why don't you pursue me?" Sun Ming asked in confusion.

"I'm afraid there's an ambush nearby. Get in the carriage quickly and return to Fenghe Village." Li Hanxue said.

"Sir, do you know who did it?" Sun Ming said.

"I don't know." Li Hanxue said, "Don't ask anything and go back to Fenghe Village quickly."

"Yes, sir."

Li Hanxue rushed back to his hometown in Fenghe Village without stopping, and took Xiu Niang to live in the county government office, because he knew that this must be the killer sent by Xiang Lei.

Except for him, no one has the courage to attack the county magistrate.

"Xiang Lei, you made a fortune outside and bribed a killer to kill me? It's a pity that you can't succeed." Li Hanxue said, "It's my turn next."

Li Hanxue sent Sun Ming out to investigate Xiang Lei's affairs over the years, and at the same time left a skilled detective as his personal bodyguard to protect his own safety.

Early the next morning, Li Hanxue met Xiang Lei who came to the county government office to visit the county magistrate.

"Young man from the Li family, you are well." Xiang Lei said with a smile, "You have a great destiny."

Li Hanxue said: "Don't let me catch you, otherwise you will definitely die!"

Xiang Lei laughed and said, "Now I am a great philanthropist in Lianhua County. The whole Lianhua County is praising my merits. How can you catch me?"

Li Hanxue sneered: "Xiang Lei, don't think that I don't know, Zhou Qiurong is the key figure in this world. If I guessed correctly, you came back this time to marry her, so that you can achieve your goal. It's a pity, She belongs to someone now, and she will grow old with Li Yanhui, not you."

Xiang Lei sneered: "You smart guy."

Although Xiang Lei had a tough talk, he could not escape the eyes of the dream demon. Li Hanxue observed the dream demon and knew that Xiang Lei was lying, which further confirmed that Xiang Lei's purpose was to marry Zhou Qiurong.

Li Hanxue said: "Xiang Lei, you are destined to fail!"

"Then we'll see!"

After Xiang Lei left, Li Hanxue thought to himself: "Xiang Lei's purpose is already obvious. Now that I have exposed him, he must be restless. I want to see what he does next."

Xiang Lei didn't make any changes, he wanted to have a head-to-head confrontation with Li Hanxue!

On this day, he went to see Zhou Qiurong and at the same time sent a killer to kill Li Yanhui.

"Xiang Lei, you're here." Looking at Xiang Lei's current appearance, Zhou Qiurong had mixed feelings.

Xiang Lei's eyes were slightly red and he said, "Qiurong, how have you been these past few years?"

Zhou Qiurong was afraid to look directly into Xiang Lei's eyes. On the one hand, she did feel a little sorry for Xiang Lei, but on the other hand, she was not sure whether Xiang Lei was really from another world as Li Hanxue said.

If that's the case, everything Xiang Lei did was all acting.

Zhou Qiurong said: "I'm not living a bad life."

Xiang Lei said: "I heard that you and Li Yanhui are engaged."

Zhou Qiurong nodded and said, "Yes, half a month ago."

Xiang Lei said: "Why didn't you wait for me to come back? You should understand what I mean to you."

Zhou Qiurong said: "I...the person I like is Yan Hui."

Xiang Lei sighed: "That's all, forceful melons are not sweet. If you really like him, then I can only wish you a long life together."

Xiang Lei's "generosity" made Zhou Qiurong's favorable impression of him immediately improve a lot, "Thank you, Xiang Lei, I am very happy to receive your blessing."

"Blessing? Li Yanhui will become a dead person today!" Xiang Lei secretly laughed in his heart.

"When is your wedding date? I'll go have a wedding drink then." Xiang Lei asked.
