At the time, before they could even enter the village, Lu Ye and the armed forces' elder, Old Xu, and a few others were stopped by Zhao Cheng and his group, who were leaving the village.
Zhao Cheng looked at the group in front of him with surprise, revealing a naive smile as he nervously rubbed his hands together and stuttered, "… Lea… leaders, we're going to go back to work right away, really sorry, we'll work extra and stay up at night to make up for the delay."
Lu Ye and Old Xu exchanged glances, and Old Xu directly asked, "Did the city's work team come to your village for an investigation?"
Zhao Cheng pretended to be stunned for a moment, rubbed his large hands, then scratched the back of his neck in a confused manner, saying, "What work team? We don't know, haven't seen any."
"Then why are you all not working and running back here, even saying that your wives are about to be taken away by others?"
