Liu Lihai's appearance fell into Leng Hongyan's sight. For a moment, she didn't know what to say or do. She didn't expect to bump into this young man at this time in front of the Municipal Party Committee building. She didn't sleep all night. All night, she was speculating and analyzing about Liu Lihai. The reason why she asked Liu Lihai to be by her side was that she wanted to warn him and observe this young man's character. She didn't want to swallow the insult and leave endless hidden dangers after this incident of using force.
Now, seeing Liu Lihai standing there stupidly, Leng Hongyan quickly recovered her calm expression after a short daze. She said to him, "Go to my car and wait for me." After that, she looked forward and walked to the gate of the Municipal Party Committee building in high heels.
Liu Lihai watched Leng Mei's back and smiled bitterly, but he still looked for Leng Hongyan's car obediently. The ending number of her license plate number was according to the ranking order of the Standing Committee members. The cars of the Standing Committee members of Jingjiang City and the building of the Standing Committee of the Thirteen Tombs they lived in were all according to this ranking order. This was an open secret in Jingjiang City, so it was not difficult to find Leng Mei's home and her car.
Liu Lihai soon found Leng Mei's car, but the driver, Xiaowu, was sitting in the car. When he saw Liu Lihai, he was stunned and asked, "Did you follow Minister Leng to the countryside?"
"Yes." Liu Lihai nodded and said. But after that, he didn't know whether he should get in the car or wait for Leng Mei.
Xiaowu saw Liu Lihai standing in front of the car and didn't get in the car. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why don't you get in the car?"
"I," Liu Lihai stuttered, but he soon thought about it. He looked at Xiaowu with a smile and asked, "Does Minister Leng usually sit in the front or the back?"
Seeing that Liu Lihai was hesitating, Xiaowu couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's popular for leaders to sit in the back seat now."
Liu Lihai quickly said to Xiaowu, "Thank you." Then he opened the door of the rear front seat and sat in it. In this way, he could avoid the embarrassment of facing Leng Mei.
About ten minutes later, Leng Hongyan came. The driver, Xiaowu, got off the car quickly and opened the door of the back seat for her. Witnessing this scene, Liu Lihai's heart trembled. He regretted that he should not get on the car so early. He should have waited for Leng Mei to come, opened the door for her, and sent her to the back seat respectfully like Xiaowu. In this way, he could reduce the bad impression he left in Leng Mei's heart. However, Leng Mei got in the car alone, which made Liu Lihai feel strange. Did she only bring him and the driver to Lin County for research?
After Leng Mei sat down, she said, "Let's go."
Xiaowu answered with a "hmm" and started the car to the direction of Lin County. Liu Lihai wanted to turn around and say hello to Leng Mei with a smile, but he didn't dare and was afraid that he would expose his emotions. After all, Xiaowu was in the car.
Xiaowu was driving seriously, while Liu Lihai was constantly thinking whether he should turn around and reconcile with Leng Mei. Or should he pretend and hide it, and face all kinds of embarrassment that Leng Mei would give him with "a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water". He believed that Leng Mei only took him to Lin County, which was definitely not to give him a good result. She must be looking for opportunities to retaliate against him. "Alas, this woman is really stingy when it comes to haggling."
Because of his thoughts, Liu Lihai was naturally in a heavy mood, but he still didn't dare to turn around and smile at Leng Mei, because Leng Mei asked Xiaowu to turn off the music in the car. Obviously, she wanted to sleep in the back seat. This small action also proved to Liu Lihai that she didn't sleep all night.
Not knowing why, when Liu Lihai thought that Leng Mei didn't sleep all night, he felt sad. He didn't know whether this sadness was for himself or for Leng Mei.
Until the car drove into the territory of Lin County, Leng Mei suddenly said in the back seat, "Xiaowu, go directly to Apricot Blossom Village."
It turned out that Leng Mei didn't sleep in the back seat, but why did she go to Apricot Blossom Village alone without informing the leaders of Lin County?
Liu Lihai couldn't help but feel uneasy in the front seat.
Xiaowu turned the car in another direction and drove on another road again. During this process, Liu Lihai was still in an uneasy mood, but Leng Mei didn't say anything again, as if Liu Lihai in the front seat didn't exist, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. But Leng Mei was a leader. A higher official could crush people, let alone a member of the Standing Committee who was many ranks higher than him. Did he dare to disobey?
Xiaowu, who was driving, tried to drive slowly and steadily, but the car was getting more and more bumpy. Liu Lihai wanted to look back at Leng Mei again, worrying that she couldn't get used to such a bumpy car, but he couldn't find a reason to turn back. He had to turn his head to the window, only to know that their car was driving on a road that was still under repair in the countryside, and it looked more difficult to drive in front. When he was about to ask Xiaowu if there was another way to Apricot Blossom Village, the car suddenly tilted. Liu Lihai instinctively reached out to grab the handle above the car, but Leng Mei in the back seat screamed, and then he heard the sound of her head being hit.
Liu Lihai quickly turned his head to look back. Leng Mei's face was pale, and she was obviously frightened. He no longer cared about his embarrassment and fear, and said loudly to Xiaowu, "Step on the brake, stop, stop."
Xiaowu was also a little scared. As soon as he heard Liu Lihai's shout, he stepped on the brake and wanted to reverse the car, but he didn't expect the car to tilt into a big pit on the side of the road. Liu Lihai didn't care that the car didn't stop. He suddenly opened the door and rushed to the back seat. When he arrived at the back seat, he quickly opened the door and said, "Minister Leng, get out of the car." He reached out to Leng Hongyan.
When Leng Hongyan was resting with her eyes closed, the car suddenly bumped. She was not prepared, and her head hit the front seat. Before she came to herself, the car tilted to one side. She was so scared that she didn't know what to do, but she found that a man's hand reached into the car. She didn't think about it and grasped this hand as if she saw a life-saving grass.
Liu Lihai's hand was tightly grasped by Leng Mei, and he knew that she was scared. No matter how fierce a woman was, she was always the weak one in the face of emergencies. He pulled Leng Mei out of the car and comforted her, "Minister Leng, don't be afraid. It's okay." With that, Liu Lihai's other hand also reached into the car, and he almost half hugged and half carried Leng Mei out of the car.
As soon as she got out of the car, Leng Hongyan's panicked heart calmed down a little. She saw that most of the car was tilted into a big pit, and she couldn't help shouting to Liu Lihai, "Xiaowu? Is Xiaowu okay? "
At this time, Xiaowu climbed out from the seat where Liu Lihai was sitting. He couldn't open the door on the side where he was sitting. Seeing that Leng Hongyan cared about him, he was moved and looked at her, asking, "Minister Leng, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." After Leng Hongyan said that, she found that she had been grasping Liu Lihai's hand. This discovery made her feel indescribable. She quickly let go of his hand, but the expression on her face was extremely uncomfortable. She added, "Xiaowu, find a way to get the car up. I will walk to Apricot Blossom Village with Xiao Liu."
"This …" Xiaowu hesitated and looked at Leng Hongyan. The road ahead was not easy to walk, and he was worried about Leng Hongyan. And Liu Lihai also looked at her in surprise. To commemorate the 90th anniversary of Qing Lan Uprising, why did she come to this small mountain village? He really didn't understand what Leng Mei was thinking in her heart.
"It's not far from Apricot Blossom Village. It's not easy to go to the countryside, and it's good to walk. You can rest assured to get the car up. Don't worry about me. "Leng Hongyan obviously understood Xiaowu's meaning. She explained and comforted him.
"Leng Mei is very good to her driver." When Liu Lihai was thinking, Xiaowu said, "Brother Liu, I leave Minister Leng to you. She can't be hungry. So, you go to Apricot Blossom Village early and ask them to prepare lunch."
"Okay, I got it." Liu Lihai answered. He just knew that it was not so easy to be a leader's driver. The driver must know the leader's small habits like the palm of his hand.
"Xiaowu, don't talk so much in front of outsiders in the future. You will make mistakes if you talk too much." Leng Hongyan blamed him. After that, she didn't look at Liu Lihai, turned around and walked forward alone.
Liu Lihai was just an outsider. He was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Leng Mei's revenge would be vented at any time and place. When the car tilted to one side, he worried about this bitch in vain. The more Liu Lihai thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He just stood there and didn't move.
Xiaowu looked at Liu Lihai with some confusion and pushed him. Then he came to his senses and hurried to keep up with Leng Hongyan's pace. He muttered angrily, "My kindness is not rewarded. Why did I do that?"
