Qi Qiang and Ruolan just sat there and stopped talking. Liu Lihai knew that they were waiting for Qin Hong to leave, but Qin Hong deliberately refused to leave. Liu Lihai had to ask Qi Qiang about the situation, "Are you here for Ruolan's matter?"
Ruolan looked at Liu Lihai and blushed again. She said, "I don't want to trouble Magistrate Liu, but my cousin asked me to come to you. He hopes that you can help and show mercy."
Liu Lihai pointed at Qin Hong and said, "This is my high school classmate, and he came for his cousin. You are my only classmate and friend in Lin County, but you don't support my work. Tell me, can I still carry out my work? Can I still stay in Lin County? "
Ruolan's face turned red. Liu Lihai sympathized with her and wanted to comfort her, but he felt that any words of comfort would be useless on such an occasion. At this time, Qin Hong stood up, glanced at Liu Lihai and said, "Magistrate Liu, please continue with your work. I'm leaving."
Liu Lihai did not ask Qin Hong to stay. Instead, he politely sent Qin Hong out of the office. After Qin Hong walked out of the door, he looked at Liu Lihai and said word by word, "I finally understand what it means to be a classmate."
Liu Lihai smiled bitterly. He did not answer Qin Hong's words, and let Qin Hong leave his office with resentment. When he returned to the office, Qi Qiang said that he had received a call and would rush back to the TV station immediately. He hoped that Liu Lihai could help Ruolan. Without waiting for Liu Lihai to speak, he stood up and left Liu Lihai's office.
Ruolan sat with her head down. She did not look at Liu Lihai. Liu Lihai smiled and asked her, "Besides being a teacher, can't you do any other work?"
Ruolan's head was still lowered, but there was a sobbing tone in her voice. She said, "I don't want to do any other work." As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Shouwang pushed open the door and walked into Liu Lihai's office. Ruolan suddenly stood up. Liu Shouwang looked at Ruolan, but his gaze was caught by Liu Lihai. He already understood that Liu Shouwang knew Ruolan. In that case, which night was not an illusion? The woman who appeared in the bamboo garden of the guest house that day was really the Ruolan in front of him. Liu Lihai did not dare to continue thinking about it.
Liu Shouwang quickly calmed down. He threw a pile of letters on Liu Lihai's desk and said, "These are all letters of complaint. Do as you see fit."
Liu Lihai stood up in shock. He wanted to ask Liu Shouwang to sit down, but Liu Shouwang turned around and left his office. During this period, Liu Lihai noticed that Ruolan had been staring at Liu Shouwang's back. Liu Lihai was a little puzzled. If Ruolan really had an intimate relationship with Liu Shouwang, why did she come to ask for his help? Could Liu Shouwang not help her?
Liu Lihai suddenly asked Ruolan, "Do you know Secretary Liu?"
Ruolan did not expect Liu Lihai to ask her so directly. She hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Last time, when she was playing games with Liu Shouwang in the bamboo garden, she actually saw Liu Lihai at night. The next day, she deliberately asked her cousin Qi Qiang to ask Liu Lihai out, deliberately testing Liu Lihai, and deliberately wore clothes that were dramatically different from that night. At that time, she was glad that Liu Lihai did not recognize her. Now she felt that Liu Lihai already knew about her relationship with Liu Shouwang. She did not want to ask Liu Lihai, but Liu Shouwang asked her to ask Qi Qiang to take her to find Liu Lihai. As long as Liu Lihai promised not to continue the reform, she could stay in Lin County No.1 Elementary School as her music teacher. In addition to teaching Ruolan this trick, Liu Shouwang also joined forces with Gu Desheng and got a group of people to write a joint letter to complain about Liu Lihai's improper work, causing the teachers' hearts to waver and unable to continue teaching. Ruolan had sent a message to Liu Shouwang on her way here. He took the opportunity to send the letter to boost Ruolan's courage. Of course, he also had a selfish thought. He was afraid that Ruolan and Liu Lihai would be too close. One was a handsome boy, and the other was a beautiful girl. It was the easiest for sparks to fly between them. When he went downstairs, he was actually very angry in his heart. As the secretary of the county committee, he was so useless. He didn't even have the ability to change his passive position in Lin County. How could he let his beloved woman beg his subordinate, who was still wet behind the ears, for a young man?
The more Ruolan behaved like this, the more certain Liu Lihai was that her relationship with Liu Shouwang was not ordinary. He did not ask further, but comforted Ruolan and said, "If I help you arrange a job, are you willing to leave Lin County No.1 Elementary School?"
Ruolan said, "I know what the so-called job you are talking about is. If I stay in No.1 Elementary School for another year, I can become a regular teacher. All the jobs you are talking about are temporary jobs. I'm not willing."
"Then I can't do anything about it. The reform of education is a big thing. Those who are not qualified to teach must be dismissed. This is the rule. I personally don't have the ability to change the rules. "
Ruolan did not know where the courage came from. She looked up at Liu Lihai and said, "Rules are made by people. If you don't want to help me, then forget it. I never knew you. Goodbye. "After saying that, she got up and left without looking back.
Liu Lihai stared at the back of the girl who once made his heart beat a little. He sighed again. He believed that this girl would go to Liu Shouwang and complain about him. His reform had not been carried out yet, but he had hit a wall again and again. He shook his head helplessly and began to open the letters that Liu Shouwang had thrown on his desk. They were all complaints about him. There were forty-five letters. He read a few of them, and they were mostly the same. They all said that he did not understand the situation in Lin County, abused his power, and disrupted the teachers' normal work. He sneered a few times and threw these letters into the trash can. He lit a cigarette and silently blew out smoke rings. He did not smoke before, but these days he always had the desire to smoke. He knew that it was caused by the pressure of work. He even doubted the time when he was a reporter at Jingjiang Daily. At that time, he lived a freer and more relaxed life than now.
Liu Lihai finished smoking and turned on his computer. He wanted to chat with Sun Xiaomu. He was afraid that the only person who could support him at this time was Sun Xiaomu. Of course, Gong Yue would also support him. However, Gong Yue supported him on the condition that he would continue to cover for her and Chao Zi. The last time he called Gong Daojin and Fang Yezi his parents, Gong Yue asked him to take her out on a few dates with Chao Zi. Looking at their love, Liu Lihai always felt that he had entered the state of old age. It always made him feel that life was boring, and that feeling was terrible. Now, he was a little afraid of seeing Gong Yue, afraid of facing other people's love, afraid of thinking about Sun Xiaomu, and even more afraid of Leng Hongyan appearing in his memory.
Sun Xiaomu was not online. Liu Lihai's heart was empty and he felt very lost. He took out his phone and could not help but send a message to Sun Xiaomu: Where are you? Are you busy?
Sun Xiaomu quickly replied: I am filming Sun Quan's sword practice stone. It's a pity that you are not here. If you are here, you can help me take the camera. The view of the Yangtze River from here is very beautiful!
Liu Lihai looked at this message and smiled. His empty heart seemed to be filled up a lot. He sent another message: Next time I go back to Jingjiang, can I help you take the camera again?
Sun Xiaomu did not reply to Liu Lihai, but asked: The reform is not going well, is it?
Sun Xiaomu, oh Sun Xiaomu, why are you so smart? Why do you act like you know everything? Liu Lihai replied with a message: Yes.
Sun Xiaomu did not reply again, and Liu Lihai was a little disappointed. He stared at his phone, hoping that Sun Xiaomu would ask him where he was stuck. Although he knew that Sun Xiaomu could not help him, he needed to talk to Sun Xiaomu about the troubles in his heart. Other than Sun Xiaomu, he could not find a more suitable person to talk to.
Liu Lihai was bored and wandering around the Internet. There was gossip about celebrities, murder, cheating, and all kinds of unfair things. In the face of these things on the Internet, Liu Lihai always felt disappointed. Life was tiring enough. Seeing these gloomy things appear around his life every day, he would also become gloomy and lose his fighting spirit. In fact, he was very unwilling to face these things on the Internet, but his dependence on the Internet made him unable to leave the computer. Just as his yearning for love made him miss Sun Xiaomu all the time.
Liu Lihai went through this website for a long time. Suddenly, Sun Xiaomu's profile picture flashed in the lower corner of the computer. He quickly clicked on Sun Xiaomu's profile picture. Sun Xiaomu was calling him: Liu Shuai, are you there?
Liu Lihai quickly typed "Yes" and sent it over. Sun Xiaomu said: I took a taxi back to the newspaper office. Tell me, what happened?
Liu Lihai's heart was warm. He did not expect that Sun Xiaomu would rush back to the newspaper office to surf the Internet for him. But he did not understand why Sun Xiaomu was unwilling to call him. But he did not ask. It might be more convenient to talk with the computer than with his mouth. Just like himself, when he missed Sun Xiaomu, he was also used to sending her irrelevant messages, and he was not used to calling her.
Liu Lihai told Sun Xiaomu that although Gong Daojin was persuaded by him, the secretary and the county magistrate did not support him. The most hateful thing was that the director of education was connected with them. He had been jointly written by many people to complain that he was incompetent in his work. It was estimated that such letters would also be written to the Municipal Party Committee. Maybe he would be transferred back to Jingjiang, or maybe he would be assigned to take charge of other things. Now, he did not know where he should go. The most hateful thing was that his only classmate in Lin County was actually threatening him.
Sun Xiaomu had been quietly looking at the text sent by Liu Lihai on the other side. After he vented his inner depression, she asked him: Did you do something shameful that was caught by your classmate?
Liu Lihai looked at Sun Xiaomu's typesetting, only to find that he only cared about venting his emotions and spilled the beans. But he felt more and more that Sun Xiaomu was too smart. Why did he not notice this when they worked together? He didn't know whether he should tell Sun Xiaomu that he had crashed his car or not. He just stared blankly at the words that Sun Xiaomu had sent over. His thoughts seemed to be broken, and he couldn't connect them no matter what.
While Liu Lihai was still hesitating, Sun Xiaomu sent another message: Since I am not your most trustworthy friend, don't say anything. I have something to do. I have to go offline.
