Liu Yuanbin looked around and said, "How about this, Head Of Yun? No matter who you're looking for, and no matter what you're here for, it's too cold outside. Why don't we talk in my office?"
He greeted the guard at the door and did a simple registration. Then, he brought Yun Jingting and Wang Yuejin back to the office. He warmly brewed tea and exchanged a few pleasantries …
Yun Jingting wasn't in the mood to talk too much. She asked directly, "Do you have a guest here? Twenty-two or twenty-three years old with the surname Chen? Is it a woman? "
Liu Yuanbin was stunned for a moment. "Head Of Yun, can I ask? Why are you looking for her? "
Yun Laohu gave a simple answer. "It's a private matter."
This wasn't a lie … It was indeed a private matter.
Liu Yuanbin's eyes widened. "Huh? Your family has overseas connections? "
These words …
It seemed to come out of nowhere, and Wang Yuejin was confused by the question.
Yun Laohu reacted quickly and immediately understood. "You mean … she's a foreigner? A foreign Chinese? "
Liu Yuanbin nodded. "Yes! She's a guest of the Provincial Party Committee. I heard that she's the daughter of a big American capitalist. I'm not sure about her background, but she's very rich. She usually eats and dresses the best. She's already been staying with us for some time. "
"…"
"She speaks Mandarin quite well! However, this Miss Chen doesn't talk much with us employees. She's very arrogant and has the style of a capitalist. She's very arrogant! However, it's strange. She seems to be a two-faced person … "
Liu Yuanbin worked in foreign affairs, so he liked to talk. Moreover, he was closer to Yun Jingting, so he didn't hide anything. He lowered his voice and continued, "I always feel that that woman is a little mysterious! Sometimes she would dress up beautifully, with a fur coat on the outside and a skirt on the inside. She would also put on red lips … "
In that era, wearing bright red lips was a big deal … At least, it meant that this woman was more "bold."
"But sometimes, she's like us ordinary people. She wears a gray cotton coat and blends into the crowd. Can't you tell who she is?"
Wang Yuejin couldn't help but interject, "There's such a thing? This woman is most likely a spy!"
Liu Yuanbin shook his head. "Nowadays, there's no such thing as a spy. It's not like before when there was class warfare. Now, they're focusing on the economy. I heard that … she's willing to invest a large sum of money 'She's willing to invest in our province........ Anyway, I didn't ask for the details. It's useless to ask. She won't tell me. "
Yun Jingting narrowed his eyes. "What's her name?"
"She has an American passport and her registered name is May/Cheng. ...........
"Then can I have a chance to meet her? Let's just meet from afar. "
Liu Yuanbin smiled apologetically. "I wanted you to meet her, but she checked out this afternoon! ........ leaving...........
....
. Yun Jingting couldn't help but get up and chase after her.
Liu Yuanbin quickly stopped him. "Head Of Yun, what are you doing? She's been gone for more than two hours. The plane must have taken off by now! You still want to chase after her? No … Can you tell me more about it? What's your relationship with her? What happened in between? "
These two questions..
. Yun Jingting also wanted to know the answer. This was also the purpose of his trip.
However..
. it seemed like he was still a step too late.
He missed the truth by a hair's breadth.
Unwilling to give up, he asked again, "Old Liu, do you know if that woman will come back? When will she come back? "
Liu Yuanbin answered honestly, "She's a VIP guest of the province. I'm just a small department head in a guest house. I … I really don't know! But I think she won't be coming back anytime soon. I heard that her family in America is sick. I'm afraid she'll have to go back to accompany them for a while. "
America?
Family?
Sick?
Her surname is Chen?
And she wanted to frame Mi Xaing 'er.
Yun Jingting immediately made a bold deduction in his mind... This woman must be related to Chen Yaozhong's fortune.
But what was their relationship?
And..
. Mei Xiang 'er?
His son was found!
And Jiang Tingting's charred corpse?
Tang Xiling's strange overseas trip!
..
Yun Jingting sat there with his head lowered. When he put everything together, he suddenly understood. He couldn't help but mutter softly, "Chen Xiang? Chen … Mei Xiang? "
Liu Yuanbin didn't understand. "Head Of Yun, what did you say?"
Yun Jingting waved his hand. "Nothing! I'm just talking to myself. "
Things had come to this.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to get anything out of him. He made up his mind. This matter wasn't over yet. Tomorrow, he would ask the Provincial Party Committee's finance department for more details. He had to get to the bottom of this as much as possible to ensure that his family wouldn't be harassed again.
He took a deep breath and stood up slowly. "Director Liu, I've troubled you today! I'll treat you to a meal some other day. "
Liu Yuanbin laughed. "Look at you. You call such a small matter troublesome? I didn't do anything! I just answered a few questions about the guests! You can have a meal too. I'll treat you next time! "
He politely walked Yun Laohu out of the Provincial Party Committee's guest house before turning to leave.
Wang Yuejin stood beside Yun Jingting. "Head Of Yun, what should we do next?"
Yun Laohu's face changed into a faint smile. "Didn't I tell you that my wife has a class reunion tonight? I have to go. That's all for today. You've been running around the whole afternoon. Go back and rest early. "
He was like that … No matter what happened, he would appear calm on the surface. Although he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, he still thought that he couldn't stand his wife up.
Wang Yuejin nodded. "Alright then! Then I'll go back first! Let me know if there's anything else. "
He turned around and was about to leave.
Yun Jingting grabbed him, took out a kraft envelope from his pocket, and stuffed it into his hands. "Yuejin, I've already contacted the hospital for your mother, and I've already paid the hospitalization fees. I know you're tight on cash right now. Here's some cash … You can use it to make ends meet!"
Huh?
Wang Yuejin hurriedly pushed it away. "How can I do that? How can I take your money? You've already introduced my mother to Magic Doctor Xiao. That's a huge favor. Doctor Xiao doesn't treat people easily … I know that! "
"Don't say anymore!"
Yun Jingting waved his hand. "Magic Doctor Xiao told me that for your mother's illness … it's best to go to a Western doctor for surgery. You should listen to him. He's an expert and knows what's best for the patient! I know that your family's burdens are heavy and you might not be able to take out so much money in such a short time, but you can't treat your mother's illness lightly. You've been in the regiment for three years, so you'll always be a soldier of the 163rd Regiment! When you're in trouble, our regiment should lend a helping hand! "
Yun Jingting wasn't a saint … He was very ruthless when training soldiers. His temper was also very fiery. Many people even said that he had a "donkey's temper," but he had one good thing about him: he valued friendship!
Once someone walked into his heart, whether it was his soldiers or his wife, he would protect them thoroughly. It was because of this that he could make true friends and the people around him would love and respect him wholeheartedly.
Wang Yuejin felt his chest warm up.
True love was only revealed in adversity!
When people were in trouble and needed money, even their relatives would avoid them … but Yun Laohu took the initiative to help.
He was so touched that his voice trembled. "Regiment Commander, ever since I retired from the army, you've helped my family a lot. I haven't repaid the favor from before. How can I take your money now?"
As he spoke, he pushed the envelope back.
Yun Jingting's face darkened. "When have I ever taken back my words? Don't dilly-dally! Although you've retired from the army, you were once a soldier. Be more direct. "
Yun Laohu didn't want to argue with him and took a step back. "That's enough! How about this, I'll take this money as a loan from you. When you have the money … you can return it to me! That's fine, right? "
He didn't say anything else.
He turned around and strode out into the night.
Wang Yuejin looked at his tall and straight back. He silently stood up straight and solemnly saluted him.
**
Yun Laohu left the guesthouse of the Provincial Party Committee. He looked at his watch and saw that it was already 7: 30 p.m.
He was a little anxious … He wasn't in a hurry to eat, but he was afraid that his wife would be anxious.
He didn't hesitate.
He hurried to the Lakeside Hotel.
The moment he entered, he saw Ni Dahai sitting at the front desk … He quickly stood up and greeted him. "Head Of Yun, what time is it? Why are you only here now?"
Yun Jingting didn't talk nonsense. He smiled faintly and said, "I had something to do … so I was delayed."
He took a look at the lobby and didn't see his wife. Before he could ask, Ni Dahai consciously explained, "They're on the second floor. I've reserved an extra large private room for them."
Them?
He didn't mention their names.
But his tone sounded especially intimate.
Yun Laohu nodded. He was a little embarrassed, so he went upstairs and said perfunctorily, "Your business is good. Every time I come back, whether it's dinner time or not, there are a lot of people!"
Ni Dahai didn't hide it. "It's all thanks to Sun Wukong. His family's ancestral cookbook … is very useful! I'm not bragging, but as long as they come to my house for a meal, they'll give me a thumbs up and come back willingly! "
"That's great!"
Ni Dahai was in a good mood, so he spoke more naturally. "To be honest, Head Of Yun, I have a new idea now. If the business continues to develop like this, I'm going to open a branch! I'll recruit more educated youths back to the city. Not only will their work problems be solved, but I'll also have money in my pocket. Why not? "
"Yes! You're quite a business-minded person! When I leave the army tomorrow, I'll go into business with you! "
Ni Dahai smiled and waved his hand. "Forget it! You want to go into business? You can only make money if you're friendly. With your temper and poker face … "
Yun Jingting glared at him. "You're at it again! Nothing good comes out of your filthy mouth. We haven't even talked much and you're already making me angry. How am I poker face? I'm a friendly person! "
Ni Dahai laughed so hard that his chin almost fell off. "Huh? Huh? You? Friendly? "
"Get out of here. Stop laughing and be serious!"
"…"
While the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard someone giggling at the door. "Aiyo, are you two doing a crosstalk?"
Yun Jingting turned around and saw Little Tian Xin … She was wearing a long dark blue woolen coat and a belt of the same material around her waist, which accentuated her slim figure and fair skin.
Ni Dahai hurried out from the front desk, his eyes narrowed into slits. "Hey, why are you here? Why didn't you call me in advance so that I could pick you up?"
Tian Xiner waved her hand. "I don't need you to pick me up! My brother sent me here! He came home early today and happened to see that I hadn't made dinner yet. My brother said that he would treat me to Four Happiness Meatballs. The Four Happiness Meatballs are not as good as here! "
When Ni Dahai heard that it was Tong Che who sent the Tian Xiner, he felt a little upset. He couldn't help but twitch his mouth and said with some jealousy, "Huh? Your brother isn't busy? He even has time to eat dinner in person? That's not easy! Also, you have to finish cooking. Don't look back … He doesn't like me and punches me again? "
Little Tian Xin glared at him. "You're so petty. It's all in the past. Let's not talk about it anymore! Didn't I apologize to you about my brother being angry with you? What's more, I've already criticized him! It's wrong of him to hit me! "
She straightened her neck and said, "To be honest, the meatballs are secondary to the reason why I came to your restaurant today. The main reason is to make you two reconcile."
Ni Dahai didn't even open his mouth to speak.
Tong Che walked slowly into the restaurant. When he saw Yun Jingting, he couldn't help but be stunned. He walked directly in front of him and lowered his voice. "Tiger, I heard … your second sister is back?"
