Li Yanli, who ran in in a hurry, also saw Chen Xing. She was also a little shocked. She opened her mouth slightly and almost shouted. Fortunately, she saw Gu Panman beside him and stopped in time. She looked at Gu Panman for a while and finally looked at Chen Xing. She glanced at Chen Xing with a faint smile. Li Yanli seemed to step back inadvertently and almost leaned against Chen Xing.
Chen Xing raised his eyebrows. He knew that this woman beside him would do crazy things. In the bathroom of a bar, in the wilderness. This woman could not be treated as an ordinary woman at all. At this moment, Gu Panman was beside her. Chen Xing was really afraid that his leadership image would be ruined at once.
Li Yanli smiled slightly. At present, there were only her, Chen Xing, and Gu Panman in the elevator. Chen Xing and Gu Panman were together at first glance. Li Yanli looked at the lit floor number of the elevator. She lived on the eighth floor, and the one on the tenth floor was also lit. Obviously, Chen Xing and Gu Panman went to the tenth floor.
They arrived at the eighth floor first. Li Yanli walked out. In the end, she didn't forget to look back at Chen Xing. She gently knocked on the metal door of the elevator with her finger, making a tinkling sound. Then she walked out.
Seeing that Li Yanli went out, Chen Xing let out a sigh of relief. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They actually met each other here. Was it fate?
They arrived at the tenth floor in the blink of an eye. Chen Xing helped Gu Panman to the door. Gu Panman took the key and opened the door. He turned around and looked at Chen Xing. Secretary Chen, we are already here. Why don't you come in and have a seat?
Chen Xing raised his hand and looked at the time. It was only past eight o 'clock, which was not too late. He didn't refuse and nodded with a smile.
It was a single apartment of about 40 square meters, with a small living room, a bed separated from the living room by a screen, a kitchen, a balcony, and a bathroom. It didn't look big, but it had all the essentials. The layout was also well-proportioned. Coupled with the fact that women loved to tidy up and decorate their homes, it was clean, hearty, and warm, making people feel very comfortable.
Before coming up, Chen Xing didn't know that Gu Panman lived in such a single apartment. Thinking of what Gu Panman said downstairs just now, Chen Xing was really curious. However, it might involve other people's privacy, so Chen Xing wouldn't ask more.
Secretary Chen, the place is a little small, please don't mind. Gu Panman invited Chen Xing to sit down and said.
It's not small either. You should be considered big in a single apartment. Chen Xing said with a smile.
Well, it's a little bigger than other single apartments. Including the balcony outside, the actual area is 45 square meters. At that time, I saw that the developer gave me an extra balcony, so I bought this place. Gu Panman nodded with a smile, and sat down on the sofa.
Xiao Gu, you sprained your ankle and injured your hand. I'm afraid it's not convenient for you to be alone. I think you'd better call your family to come over. It'll be better if someone takes care of you. Chen Xing glanced at Gu Panman's sprained ankle. He didn't know how bad it was, but if a woman sprained it when running in high heels, it wouldn't be much better.
Secretary Chen, it's okay. I'm not that delicate. Gu Panman shook his head with a smile. I'll apply some safflower oil later, and it should be much better tomorrow.
Well, then be more careful. Chen Xing nodded and said, "If you can't go to work tomorrow, you don't have to force yourself. Ask Li Ying to help you ask for leave for a day or two. If your leader dares to refuse, I'll call him to criticize him."
When Gu Panman heard Chen Xing's joke, she couldn't help laughing. After several contacts, she really didn't feel that Chen Xing was a leader at all. As Chen Xing had said, perhaps Chen Xing just regarded himself as an ordinary person in private. He didn't divide people into different ranks, high or low, and treated everyone equally.
Looking at Chen Xing's face, Gu Panman quietly observed and scrutinized Chen Xing. The young Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee had only been in Mount Wang for a short time, but he had issued several documents in succession, forbidding grass-roots villages and towns from charging people arbitrarily and strictly controlling public consumption. Although there had been documents explicitly prohibiting eating and drinking with public funds in the past, everyone knew that it was just for show, and no one really cared. However, after Chen Xing came over, it was obvious that he was different from before.
After sitting down for a while, Gu Panman remembered that she hadn't poured water for Chen Xing. She was impolite, so she quickly stood up. Secretary Chen, I'll pour you a glass of water.
Xiao Gu, there's no need. You've sprained your ankle, so don't move around. You should have a good rest. I won't disturb you. You've worked hard tonight. Go to bed early. Chen Xing stopped Gu Panman with a smile, stood up, and said.
Secretary Chen, it doesn't matter. You're a guest. I can't let you just sit there. If I didn't even pour you a glass of water, it would be my fault for not being a good host. Gu Panman chuckled.
If you want to entertain me, wait until the next time I come to visit. When your injury is healed, then I'll entertain you well. Chen Xing stood up with a smile and sent Gu Panman up. In fact, he didn't want to stay any longer. A man and a woman alone would make people feel sensitive.
Secretary Chen, are you really going to leave? Gu Panman's eyes were filled with reluctance.
I have to go first. I'll come back later when I have a chance. Chen Xing nodded. "You don't have to send me out. Sit down and rest."
Hearing this, Gu Panman still stood up. When Chen Xing left, she was going to close the door and send Chen Xing out.
Xiao Gu, you don't have to come out. Chen Xing said as soon as he reached the door.
"Well, Secretary Chen, take care." Gu Panman looked at Chen Xing.
Smiling and nodding at Gu Panman, Chen Xing turned around and left. Gu Panman still stood at the door until Chen Xing entered the elevator. Then she turned around and closed the door. Looking at the empty room again, Gu Panman's heart also felt empty.
Holding the wall, Gu Panman found the safflower oil in the drawer and walked to the bathroom. Her arm had just been hit by the iron bar, and it still hurt. If it weren't for the fact that she could still raise her arm, she would have suspected that her arm had been broken.
Taking off the prosecutor's uniform jacket and unbuttoning the white shirt inside, Gu Panman took off the shirt from her shoulders. In the mirror, Gu Panman could already see her bruise. It was like the mark of an iron bar, and there was some blood.
Looking at herself in the mirror, her hand brushed past the bruise. Gu Panman gasped in pain. She unscrewed the cap of the safflower oil, poured it out, and gently applied it. From time to time, it could be seen that she was gritting her teeth and enduring the pain.
After wiping the bruise on her arm, Gu Panman stared blankly at herself in the mirror. She had a white and plump neck, beautiful shoulder blades, and a face that wasn't particularly beautiful but didn't lose to others. Also, she insisted on running every day and had always been very confident in her body. If it was a man, would he be infatuated with a woman like her? The beauty fell and the fragrance of wild geese faded away. With her body, which man would she lie in the arms of in the future?
Chen Xing entered the elevator. When he pressed the button for the first floor, Chen Xing stared at the button for the eighth floor and hesitated for a moment. Somehow, he still pressed it. Chen Xing could see Li Yanli's movements and eyes before she left. She was hinting at him. He didn't want to go, but in the end, Chen Xing still pressed the button for the eighth floor.
Li Yanli stood at the door of her house and looked at the elevator. Her apartment was diagonally opposite the elevator. Standing at the door, she could see the elevator. When she saw the elevator door open, Li Yanli's eyes lit up and she looked at it expectantly. When she saw Chen Xing, Li Yanli's eyes were full of smiles. She waved at Chen Xing, looked left and right, and dashed into the house first.
Chen Xing paused for a moment, then walked over. The door was open, and Li Yanli was standing behind the door. She pulled him in and closed the door.
I didn't expect you to live here too. Chen Xing looked at Li Yanli, and there was still some surprise in his eyes. It seemed that they were predestined. Last time when they left, they didn't take the initiative to ask each other's phone number or where they lived. They still maintained the tacit understanding from the first time. Just like what Li Yanli said, they came out to have fun. If they were to be entangled with each other, they would cross the line.
I didn't expect to meet you again in such a short time. What does this mean? Are we really fated to be together? Li Yanli stared at Chen Xing with a smile. Come in and take a seat. Why are you standing there like a fool?
Your husband is not at home? Chen Xing glanced at the room. Li Yanli lived in a house with three bedrooms and three living rooms. The house was not small, and the spacious living room made people feel comfortable.
If my husband was at home, would I dare to let you in? What a silly question. Li Yanli smiled and rolled her eyes at Chen Xing. Take a seat. You don't have to be shy in front of me.
Do you think I will be shy? Chen Xing smiled faintly and met Li Yanli's unbridled gaze. Li Yanli's eyebrows and eyes were quite beautiful. Her eyes under her long eyelashes were always watery and covered with a layer of mist, which made her look charming and alluring.
That's true. I can tell at a glance that you are not an honest person. You are a playboy. Li Yanli smiled and sat beside Chen Xing. Who is that woman just now? She is quite beautiful. Are you a woman or a man?
If I were a woman, do you think I would be sitting here now? Chen Xing smiled indifferently.
That's true. I don't think you two are husband and wife. Moreover, I have seen that woman coming in and out many times every day. She should have lived here for a long time, but I have never seen you. Li Yanli smiled. So I guess that woman is not your wife. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to seduce you. Otherwise, we would see each other all day and accidentally expose ourselves.
Really? I think there is nothing you don't dare to do. Chen Xing smiled and shook his head.
Do you think I am a man of debauchery? Li Yanli looked at Chen Xing angrily.
Chen Xing didn't answer the question. If he answered it, he would be asking for trouble.
Eh, I remember that woman seems to be someone from a government agency. Is it the prosecutor's office or the court? I saw that she was wearing a uniform, and there was a badge on her chest. Is it the national emblem or something? Li Yanli suddenly said. They both lived in the same building. It was inevitable that they would meet each other. Li Yanli had already met her several times. They were both beautiful women, so she would naturally pay attention to them. Especially the uniform that Gu Panman was wearing was also easy to attract attention.
That is not the national emblem. It is the emblem of the procuratorate. It consists of a shield and five five-pointed stars … Forget it, why am I telling you this? Chen Xing shook his head and looked at Li Yanli with a playful smile. Your husband is not at home. Why did you call me over?
What do you think? Hearing Chen Xing's question, Li Yanli chuckled and put one hand on Chen Xing's leg.
Aren't you afraid that your husband will suddenly come back? Chen Xing glanced at her.
He went to Nanzhou and won't be back for at least a week. Li Yanli sighed.
So, you are lonely in an empty house? Chen Xing smiled.
What do you think? Li Yanli asked and looked at Chen Xing. Women are naturally gossipy. What do you do? Since the woman just now is not your wife, what does she have to do with you? Don't tell me you've also hooked up with her?
It's not like that. Don't talk nonsense. Chen Xing waved his hand and looked much more solemn. He would talk nonsense in front of Li Yanli, but when it came to others, Chen Xing obviously had his own principles. In fact, it was only because he had that absurd relationship with Li Yanli in the bar that he would talk freely in front of Li Yanli and show his other side.
Oh, you don't even let me talk. It seems that the woman has a special place in your heart. Li Yanli looked at Chen Xing with sparkling eyes.
Why, are you jealous? Chen Xing looked at her playfully.
What's there to be jealous of? I'm just curious. Li Yanli pouted. She was really not jealous. She and Chen Xing just met by chance. They both took what they needed. There was no relationship, so why would she be jealous?
Chen Xing smiled and looked at her. Huang Jianghua and Li Yong were still waiting downstairs. Chen Xing didn't want to stay for long, so he got up and said, "I'll leave first."
Oh, he's really leaving? Li Yanli looked at Chen Xing in surprise. In her opinion, Chen Xing was also the kind of person who liked to play around.
Why would he stay if he didn't leave? Did he want to spend the night here? Chen Xing smiled and said, "You're not worried about me. I'm worried that your husband will suddenly come back."
"Stop pretending. I see you flirt with women everywhere. It would be strange if you were afraid of being caught." Li Yanli laughed. Seeing that Chen Xing was really going to leave, she smiled and said, "Handsome, you really don't want to ask me for my number?"
"Why should I ask you for your number? I don't want you to break the rules." Chen Xing smiled.
"You're really a man. One sentence can make you repeat it over and over again, and you still want me to give you my number." Li Yanli looked at Chen Xing and said, "I think you don't know how to be a hero at the critical moment. You don't have a heroic temperament. You don't know how to sweet talk to women. You always act like you don't care. I don't know how you flirt with women."
"Why do you think I flirt with women?" Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What else? Do you think you're a decent man?" Li Yanli smiled and walked towards Chen Xing.
"Alright, I'm not a decent man. Do you mean that you're not a decent woman?" Chen Xing looked at her mockingly.
"I've never said that I'm a decent woman. How can you be a decent woman when you fool around behind your husband's back?" There was a moment of confusion in the depths of Li Yanli's eyes, but she quickly returned to normal. "I even dared to bring a man home. Is this something a decent woman would do?"
When Chen Xing heard her words, he didn't know what to say. This woman really made him speechless. To use a saying, "A despicable person is invincible. A shameless person is heaven-defying." He didn't have the right to comment on what kind of person she was. However, Li Yanli really made him speechless.
…
Outside the window, the night was quiet. Qi Pan Mountain was like a huge horse's head lying on the ground. The villas at the foot of the mountain were brightly lit.
From time to time, curses could be heard from the building where Zhang Lixing was staying. Qian Xinlai was also in the hall. His son was still locked up in the police station. At this moment, his expression was even worse than Zhang Lixing's.
"Those hooligans can't do anything right. I knew that a bunch of hooligans can't be relied on. Look, something happened so quickly." Zhang Lixing glanced at Qian Xinlai. When he cursed just now, he was shouting at Yang Hongchao on the other end of the phone. Now that he hung up the phone, Zhang Lixing spoke to Qian Xinlai. He also had some complaints.
"Mayor Zhang, it's useless to say this now. You don't have to look down on these hooligans. To put it bluntly, if it weren't for them, something might have happened earlier." Qian Xinlai snorted and rebutted Zhang Lixing's words.
