Not long after, Zhu Ziqing received a call from Deng Erming. "Ziqing, I found out that he was taken away by the Second Office of the Provincial Disciplinary Commission. The information I got was to assist in the investigation."
"Since it's to assist in the investigation, there shouldn't be a big problem." Zhu Ziqing frowned.
"There shouldn't be a big problem. The person I asked also said that he can come back as long as he answers all the questions." Deng Erming sounded uncertain, but he was afraid that something unexpected might happen.
As Deng Erming spoke, he spat and laughed. "Look at my crow's mouth, always saying inauspicious things. Slap yourself."
Zhu Ziqing wasn't in the mood to joke with Deng Erming. He thought for a while and said, "Brother Deng, help me keep an eye on the situation. If there's any change, inform me immediately."
"Of course, I'm your father's friend. Since something like this happened, I naturally have to pay attention to it." Deng Erming smiled. "I'll also ask someone to help you ask and try to get your father back as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Deng." Zhu Ziqing thanked him.
"Ziqing, you're treating me like an outsider." Deng Erming smiled. "That's all for now. I'll contact you later."
After the call, Zhu Ziqing saw his mother staring at him. He couldn't help but say, "Mom, you heard it too. My dad is only assisting in the investigation. Since it's' assisting ', it means that the problem isn't with my dad. He should be able to come back after answering the questions."
"Really?" Ouyang Xuerong asked worriedly.
"Mom, why would I lie to you? I answered the phone in front of you just now. How can I hide anything from you?" Zhu Ziqing smiled and comforted his mother. "Okay, don't worry too much. Deng Erming will help you find some connections. There shouldn't be any big problem. It's useless to worry now."
Ouyang Xuerong nodded subconsciously, but her eyes were still full of worry. Zhu Ziqing could only shake his head helplessly when he saw this. His mother was a person who was easily worried. If something like this happened, unless he saw his father coming back, he couldn't let his mother not worry at all. In fact, even Zhu Ziqing wasn't a hundred percent confident. It was better to be safe than sorry. After all, things weren't under their control. If there were any changes, they might not be assisting in the investigation, but being investigated.
Zhu Ziqing and his mother were silent. At this time, his daughter's voice sounded. She happily showed the puzzle in her hand to Zhu Ziqing. "Mom, look, did I get it right?"
The child's childlike voice made the living room more lively. Zhu Ziqing looked at his daughter lovingly and smiled. "Come, let mom see if my little darling got it right."
Zhu Ziqing said and took his daughter into his arms. Looking at her pink smiling face, he couldn't help kissing her.
In Jiang City, it was already past eight o 'clock when Chen Xing and Wu Gang finished dinner. After returning to the hotel and taking a comfortable warm bath, Chen Xing picked up the phone to call his wife. Then he video-chatted with his son for a while. Seeing his son making faces at him on the screen, Chen Xing laughed. The little boy had become more and more naughty. He was lively and often made trouble. He was also a little bully in the kindergarten. He often made the teacher so angry that even his grandmother couldn't do anything to him. Chen Xing said to the phone screen, "Chengye, if you don't listen to your grandmother, I'll beat you when I get back."
Hearing Chen Xing's words, the little boy stuck out his tongue at Chen Xing with a fearless expression. Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really didn't know what to do with this little rascal. Not to mention that he couldn't beat him now, even if his son was in front of him, he couldn't bear to beat him.
After video-chatting for a while, Chen Xing and his mother chatted for a while. Hearing his mother talking about some trivial things in his hometown, Chen Xing also smiled bitterly. His father was still in school and seemed to enjoy his current life very much. He refused to retire early no matter what. The key was that some relatives in his hometown would often visit his father and call his mother to chat about family trifles. Their words were nothing more than hinting that they hoped to be taken care of. When a man achieved the Dao, his chickens and dogs would also rise to heaven. In the eyes of some relatives, it was natural for a man to achieve the Dao. However, Chen Xing usually ignored this kind of concern.
There was a knock on the door. Only then did Chen Xing end the call with his mother. He walked over and opened the door. Seeing Ni Jiali, Chen Xing couldn't help but smile. Ms. Ni, why aren't you going back so late?
There was no one at home. It would be boring to go back and stay. Ni Jiali smiled and said, "Mayor Chen, I made a bowl of soup for you."
Chen Xing saw the tray in Ni Jiali's hand with a small pot on it. He was wondering what it was just now. Now that he heard Ni Jiali's words, Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. Ms. Ni, you don't have to be so polite. This is not within the service scope of your hotel's Deputy General Manager.
Mayor Chen, you work hard for more than seven million people in Jiang City. It's nothing for me to make some soup for you, Mayor Chen. Besides, Mayor Chen, you are alone in Jiang City and have no family to take care of you. Of course, I have to take care of you, Mayor Chen. Ni Jiali smiled. As she spoke, she sniffed and glanced at Chen Xing. Mayor Chen, did you drink?
Yes, I drank a little. Chen Xing smiled.
Drinking is bad for your health. Mayor Chen, you have no one to take care of you. You have to drink less. As Ni Jiali spoke, she placed the soup on the dining table in the living room. Then she went to the kitchen and took a soup spoon. She opened the lid for Chen Xing and said, "Mayor Chen, please drink it while it's hot."
Chen Xing walked over. Since Ni Jiali had served him so well, it was inappropriate for Chen Xing to let her take the soup away. Moreover, he knew that Ni Jiali had good intentions. Although others were more or less trying to please him, Ni Jiali's enthusiasm was really hard to reject.
Oh, what kind of soup is this? It smells good. Chen Xing sat down and smiled.
This is deer antler stewed chicken soup. It is very nourishing. Ni Jiali smiled.
Deer antler? It seems that this soup is not cheap. He smiled and glanced at Ni Jiali.
It is not expensive. Ordinary deer antler sold in pharmacies now is less than 2,000 yuan per catty. In fact, it is very cheap. Because the weight of deer antler is light, one catty is a big bag. It is not expensive. Ni Jiali smiled. She did not tell him that the deer antler she bought is one of the more expensive species of deer antler. It is commonly known as blood antler, which is several times more expensive than ordinary deer antler. The hen is also a free-range chicken that she asked someone to buy from the countryside. The soup stewed with free-range chicken tastes very fragrant. Ni Jiali is very attentive in making this bowl of soup for Chen Xing.
