On the other side, Liu Lihai was talking to Fang Yezi. He was going to see Gong Daojin. Fang Yezi wanted to go as well. Liu Lihai comforted her and told her that he would take her there after he went to see Gong Daojin. He would also go and see Chaozi. When Fang Yezi heard Liu Lihai's words, she hugged him and cried bitterly.
Sun Xiaomu and Gong Yue ran over. They did not know what was going on. Fang Yezi had not cried like this for a long time. She had been waiting for news from Gong Daojin. She had always hoped that he would be fine and that he would come back safely. But Gong Daojin was still sentenced to six years. Could Gong Daojin, who was in his fifties, endure life in prison? Although she had long known about his relationship with Wu Yueying, and although Gong Daojin had other women, she had given her life to him. He was her hope and future. She had never thought about leaving him, nor had she ever thought about leaving him. Now, they would be separated for six years. Six years was just a matter of waiting for her. But for Gong Daojin, would he be able to endure it? She was worried about him.
Liu Lihai patted Fang Yezi's back and let her cry. This woman had lived in Gong Daojin's life all her life. She was happy for him and worried for him. She did not have her own life, nor did she have her own preferences. This was probably the life of a woman behind the scenes of an official. It was also a kind of sorrow for them. While they lived a prosperous life, they also lived in danger and worry.
With the help of Sun Xiaomu, Fang Yezi and Gong Yue successfully settled down in the provincial capital. Gong Yue went to the provincial government guest house to work as a waitress. What Liu Lihai did not expect was that he would meet Ruolan here. But the moment Ruolan saw him, she turned around and ran away.
Liu Lihai wanted to call out to Ruolan. This girl, who had once moved his heart for a moment, now turned a blind eye to him. But the word "Ruolan" was stuck in his throat. He could not say it no matter how hard he tried. However, Liu Lihai understood one thing at this time. The relationship between Liu Shouwang and Ruolan was still there. Without Liu Shouwang's help, it would be impossible for Ruolan to enter the Provincial Government Guest House. In this regard, Liu Shouwang was much more humane than Shi Zhilin, but he was still defeated by Shi Zhilin. It seemed that he had to remember all the theories that Leng Hongyan taught him when he was in the officialdom, and at the same time, he had to deal with them carefully. Gong Daojin and Liu Shouwang were two powerful people, but both of them were defeated by Shi Zhilin. This made Liu Lihai reflect on it, and he seriously braced himself to deal with Shi Zhilin.
After returning to Lin County from the province, Liu Lihai asked Sun Xiaomu, "What do your parents do?"
"Is it important what my parents do?" Sun Xiaomu asked Liu Lihai.
"I'm just curious. Why do you have a strong relationship in the province and the city?" Liu Lihai still asked the question he had always wanted to ask.
"My parents are just ordinary people. If you want to see them, I'll take you to see them tomorrow. "Sun Xiaomu was obviously angry.
"Why don't I want to see your parents?" Liu Lihai asked Sun Xiaomu.
"But you haven't taken me to see your mother. Lihai, living is our business. Is it really important what my parents do? "Sun Xiaomu was still unwilling to talk about her parents. The more she acted like this, the more confused Liu Lihai was. She must be hiding something from him. But if Sun Xiaomu was unwilling to say it, he knew it was meaningless to ask again. He had to change the topic and said, "Xiaomu, let's go see my mother this weekend, okay? Also, I want to see Gong Yue's father. After all, he is now my father. "
"Lihai, no matter what you do, I will support you. But, if one day, I lied to you, will you forgive me? "Sun Xiaomu stared at Liu Lihai.
"Why did you lie to me?" Liu Lihai's doubts were raised again. He looked at Sun Xiaomu, and Sun Xiaomu also looked at him. When their eyes met, Sun Xiaomu avoided him.
"Lihai, I'm just saying if. Okay, let's not talk about this now. Let's talk about what to prepare for seeing your mother, okay? "After Sun Xiaomu finished speaking, she turned her back to Liu Lihai.
This action of Sun Xiaomu suddenly made Liu Lihai feel that Sun Xiaomu had become very strange and distant. He couldn't figure out what Sun Xiaomu was hiding. Could it be that she really had a relationship with Secretary Wu Haotian? However, Sun Xiaomu gave him a complete body. The virgin blood scattered on the bed made him swear in his heart that he must protect her for a lifetime. He was her first man, and he was willing to be her last man.
Now, with such a capable Sun Xiaomu, such a mysterious Sun Xiaomu, Liu Lihai still had doubts. There must be a force standing behind her. This force was huge, enough to make him soar. However, except for Secretary Wu Haotian, it seemed that no one else spoke for him. This made him think about the relationship between Sun Xiaomu and Secretary Wu Haotian. Although he didn't want to think about it deeply, doubts were everywhere, making him feel uneasy.
Liu Lihai wanted to see Gong Daojin. His case was heard in a different place, and he was also detained in a different place. Liu Lihai said to Sun Xiaomu, "Xiaomu, can you help me find some connections and let me meet Gong Yue's father and Chaozi?"
Sun Xiaomu answered Liu Lihai without thinking, "No problem. Wait for me. I'll tell you after I arrange it. "
Liu Lihai replied with a "hmm", but his heart ached. He saw that Sun Xiaomu had gone out of the dormitory. She had obviously avoided him to make a phone call. He walked around the dormitory a few times. He tried to calm himself down, but his doubts became deeper and deeper. He didn't know what kind of person his wife was. This was too scary. His wife, who he had always thought was clean and simple, turned out to be a person he couldn't understand at all.
When Sun Xiaomu returned to the dormitory, he said to Liu Lihai with a smile, "Go ahead. When you get to the prison, look for Warden Huang. He will arrange it for you."
Liu Lihai replied with an "oh". He found an excuse to find Xiao Zhou to arrange a car for him and left the dormitory. He went to the office. At night, the Lin County government building was brightly lit. This was requested by Shi Zhilin after he became the county party secretary. Moreover, he also requested to redecorate the entire building. It was said that this loading and unloading project was also given to Qin Hong. It was said that Qin Hong's famous brand agent had been transferred to someone else. He had now set up a real estate development company and was a well-known real estate boss in Lin County. However, Liu Lihai didn't want to see Qin Hong again. Although he knew that he and Qin Hong would still meet again, and it was very likely that they would have a reunion, when he was in the worst mood, he would never think of asking his old classmate to go out for a drink.
Liu Lihai read some news on the Internet. After he calmed down, he got up and returned to the dormitory. Sun Xiaomu was lying on the bed asleep with her clothes on. Her sleeping posture was still simple and cute, but her energy made Liu Lihai have no choice but to look at her in a different light. He couldn't help but associate her with Secretary Wu Haotian, but when he faced her, he felt that he was very hateful. He shouldn't have thought of his wife like this. He reached out to touch her face. She woke up and opened her eyes to look at him. Her eyes were still so clear, and he felt sorry for her. He picked her up and undressed her while saying, "Xiaomu, I'm sorry."
"Lihai, don't say it. There are some things that need time to be resolved. " Sun Xiaomu suddenly said this. Liu Lihai was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded.
That night, Liu Lihai and Sun Xiaomu didn't talk anymore. Instead, they closed their eyes and fell asleep, each with their own thoughts.
When he woke up again, Liu Lihai said goodbye to Sun Xiaomu. He wanted to go to the prison to see Gong Daojin and Chao Zi. When he arrived, what made Liu Lihai feel strange was that Warden Huang had been waiting for him. When Warden Huang brought him to see Gong Daojin, he asked him on the way, "Are you familiar with Director Tao?"
"Director Tao?" Liu Lihai asked in his heart. He asked Warden Huang, "Is it Director Tao from the provincial bureau?"
"Yes, he called our leader and asked me to wait for you here today." Warden Huang looked at Liu Lihai enviously.
"Thank you." Liu Lihai looked at Warden Huang and said, but his heart clenched. It seemed that the relationship between Sun Xiaomu and Secretary Wu Haotian was not ordinary. Only Secretary Wu Haotian had the ability to make Director Tao make this call. While he was lost in his thoughts, Warden Huang had already brought him to the place where the prisoners met their relatives and friends. Gong Daojin looked a lot older. When he saw Liu Lihai, he was very emotional and wanted to stand up. Liu Lihai went forward and held his hand. Liu Lihai called out, "Dad." This made Gong Daojin lose control of his emotions, and tears flowed down his face. He didn't expect Liu Lihai to come to see him, and he didn't expect Liu Lihai to call him "Dad."
Gong Daojin had a lot of thoughts during this period, and his biggest thought was that he had misjudged people. He had trusted Shi Zhilin so easily and let Shi Zhilin know too much about him. Ever since he was arrested, he had been wondering which part of him had gone wrong. After thinking about it, he finally understood that Shi Zhilin had stabbed him in the back. What he regretted the most was bringing Shi Zhilin to know his connections in Beijing. Every time someone from Beijing came, Shi Zhilin was his right-hand man. But this person, who had been loyal to him on the surface, still put him in danger. However, he himself was not clean. If he hadn't been hot-headed and allowed Wu Yueying to buy properties in Shanghai and Beijing, he wouldn't have ended up like this. He always thought that he would be the ruler of Lin County, and that no one could do anything to him. But when his uncle died, Shi Zhilin caught him by surprise and used the Internet to catch him off guard. He had been fighting in the officialdom all his life, but he didn't expect to fall into the hands of the person he trusted the most.
