Lin Nuo walked out of the washroom. She didn't make any sound, as if she didn't exist in the whole room. She put on her clothes, buttoned up her shirt, and it was so quiet that only Liu Lihai's heartbeat could be heard.
Lin Nuo didn't cry anymore, and she didn't look at Liu Lihai again. And Liu Lihai really didn't know how to face Lin Nuo at this time. If his possession of Lin Nuo after drinking was unintentional, then what about the scene just now? He had already made a mistake after drinking once, and he couldn't make a second mistake. At least now when he couldn't really marry Lin Nuo, at least now when he couldn't give Lin Nuo an explanation, he couldn't touch her again.
Both of them put on their clothes in silence, and neither of them looked at each other again. It wasn't until Xiao Zhou called that Liu Lihai said, "Let's go."
The two of them walked out one after the other, and then got into Xiao Zhou's car one after the other. Xiao Zhou didn't ask any more questions, and there was a terrible silence in the car, an awkward silence.
Liu Lihai was a little angry, angry at himself. What was wrong with him? Why did he make a trip to Qinghe Village with Qin Hong? This village, this villa, always made him entangled with women. Leng Hongyan and Sun Xiaomu had already made him feel even more pained. Now, there was suddenly another Lin Nuo. Yes, a girl who had given him her virginity. How should he face her now?
When the car was about to reach the county, Liu Lihai said to Xiao Zhou, "Take Lin Nuo to buy a phone later, I accidentally broke her phone."
"No need. I'm not so poor that I can't even afford a phone, "Lin Nuo said coldly from behind her seat.
Liu Lihai had no choice but to turn around to look at Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo's face was as cold as ice. Liu Lihai knew that he had really hurt this girl. Yes, he had slept with her last night. In the morning, when she had taken the initiative to ask for it, he, he had abandoned her.
An apology was no longer of any use. Liu Lihai knew.
Liu Lihai turned around and tore off a piece of paper from the car. He wrote down a phone number, then turned around and passed the paper to Lin Nuo. "This is Jiangzhou University's Professor Liu's phone number. He attends the written examinations and interviews for civil servants every year. Go and find him. I will also call him to tell him about your situation. You will definitely pass. "
At this time, Liu Lihai felt that this was the only thing he could do for this girl. He couldn't tell this girl that he thought of Sun Xiaomu. He couldn't forget Sun Xiaomu. He couldn't tell her that it was the wound in his heart. It was a scar that he couldn't face right now.
Lin Nuo wanted to refuse. She wanted to leave this man as soon as possible. But she didn't know why, when Liu Lihai spoke like this and when he handed over the note with his phone number and address, she still reached out her hand and accepted Liu Lihai's help.
The air in the car seemed to circulate a little. Lin Nuo wanted to say something, but the words were all stuck in her throat. She didn't know what kind of mentality and emotion she had towards this man at this time.
"I'll get off here. Take Lin Nuo to buy a phone." At this time, Liu Lihai asked Xiao Zhou to stop the car. In front of them was the intersection to the phone store. Liu Lihai didn't look back at Lin Nuo and got off the car. Lin Nuo stared at the back of a tall and handsome figure in the distance. Her tears, her disappointing tears, rolled down like soybeans.
Xiao Zhou felt that there was something wrong with Lin Nuo sitting in the back. He looked back and saw that Lin Nuo's face was full of tears. He took a few tissues from the car trunk in the front seat and handed them to Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo approached the tissues and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
Xiao Zhou replied, "You're welcome." He drove the car forward until they arrived at the phone store. Xiao Zhou then turned back and said, "Miss Lin, get off the car."
Lin Nuo had already dried her tears. No matter what, Liu Lihai was gone. Whether she could see him again was a problem.
Xiao Zhou went to park the car. Lin Nuo waited at the door of the phone store. She didn't enter the store. She wanted to wait for Xiao Zhou to come and tell Xiao Zhou that she appreciated his kindness and that she didn't need Xiao Zhou to buy a phone for her. But at this time, Lin Nuo was pulled by someone. She looked in the direction of the pull and saw that Xiao Li, one of Qin Hong's subordinates, was standing beside her. She was worried that Xiao Zhou would come and see something bad, so she quickly said, "What are you doing here?"
"The boss wants you to speak to the phone." As he spoke, he dialed a number and handed the phone to Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo took the phone and walked inside. She hoped that Xiao Li could disappear before Xiao Zhou arrived.
Qin Hong asked on the phone, "What are you and Liu Lihai's driver going to the phone store for?"
"My phone was accidentally broken in the morning. He insisted on giving me a new one." Lin Nuo explained. She didn't know why, but she couldn't say the name Liu Lihai. The name seemed very close, but also very far away.
"Borrow Xiao Zhou's phone for a while. Call Liu Lihai and ask him to come over and help you pick a phone." Qin Hong instructed Lin Nuo on the other end of the phone.
"I don't want Xiao Zhou to buy a phone. I'll buy one myself." When Lin Nuo said this, she looked at the door. Fortunately, Xiao Zhou hadn't arrived yet.
"Hehe, do you feel sorry for him now? But he didn't want you. "Qin Hong said in a strange tone.
"You, you're spying on us?" Lin Nuo asked in fear.
"Yes, all of your actions are under my surveillance. So, you have to be honest. Xiao Zhou will enter the store soon. You quickly return the phone to Xiao Li and do as I say. Otherwise, I'll immediately inform the hospital to stop your mother's treatment. "After Qin Hong said this fiercely, he directly hung up the phone.
As soon as Lin Nuo returned the phone to Xiao Li, Xiao Zhou really walked into the phone store. Only then did Lin Nuo know that not only was Xiao Li here, but Qin Hong was also nearby. She had no choice but to walk to Xiao Zhou's side and said, "Master Zhou, I, I want to call County Magistrate Liu."
Xiao Zhou said, "Okay." After that, he took out the phone and handed it to Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo avoided Xiao Zhou. Of course, Xiao Zhou was very tactful. He pretended to look at the phone and walked to the other end of the counter. Lin Nuo took Xiao Zhou's phone and deliberately walked to the door of the phone store. She looked around. Xiao Li pretended to come out from inside. When he passed by her, he said in a low voice, "Don't look, the boss is nearby."
Lin Nuo was so scared that her flesh jumped. She had no choice but to dial Liu Lihai's phone. Liu Lihai just walked to the front of the government courtyard. As soon as he heard the phone ring, he quickly took it out and saw it was Xiao Zhou. He pressed the answer button and asked, "Xiao Zhou, what's wrong? Did you buy a phone? "
Lin Nuo was stunned. She felt guilty again. But Xiao Li, there was still Qin Hong. Maybe Qin Hong had a little brother like Xiao Li. Did she dare to offend Qin Hong? Could she afford to offend him? But she didn't understand why Qin Hong wanted Liu Lihai to buy a phone for her personally. Was he taking photos again? Why did he take these photos?
Lin Nuo was confused.
"It's me, Lin Nuo." Lin Nuo spat out these words into the phone. These words seemed to be said with great difficulty.
"Oh, it's Lin Nuo. What's wrong?" Liu Lihai's voice became softer. At least in Lin Nuo's ears, it sounded softer. In this way, the humiliation Lin Nuo suffered in the morning was reduced a lot. She immediately said, "Can you come and help me choose a phone? I want to take the phone you gave me to take the civil servant exam. I won't choose a very expensive phone, but I hope you can buy it for me personally, okay? "
Lin Nuo had to make her voice full of emotion. At least, it was full of attachment to Liu Lihai. Liu Lihai didn't expect Lin Nuo to make such a request. He was stunned and didn't speak. If he went to the phone shop to choose a phone for Lin Nuo at this time and was seen by an acquaintance, how would he explain it?
"Are you in a difficult position? Or do you think I, I don't deserve to stand by your side? "Lin Nuo's voice had a crying tone, and there were tears of grievance in her eyes.
"Lin Nuo, don't cry. I'll come, I'll come and choose for you right away, okay?" Liu Lihai turned around and walked to the gate of the government compound while comforting Lin Nuo.
"Really?" Lin Nuo asked with a smile instead of crying.
"You're really a child." Liu Lihai said and hung up the phone. Lin Nuo's mood at this time was actually heavy and complicated. She even hated herself.
Liu Lihai didn't expect Lin Nuo to care so much about a phone, and she was crying and laughing like a child. In fact, Lin Nuo was indeed a child. She and Gong Yue were one year younger. Girls who had just left school, who wasn't living in a dream?
With this thought, Liu Lihai quickened his pace to the phone shop. When he arrived at the door of the phone shop, Lin Nuo came out to greet him and walked into the phone shop side by side with him. When she and Liu Lihai walked into the shop, Lin Nuo instinctively looked back. Little Li had already followed them in. Lin Nuo had to pretend to look at her phone on the counter. She pointed at a red women's phone and said, "Let me see this one."
When Xiao Zhou saw Liu Lihai come to the phone shop, he tactfully left the shop and went to the car to wait for Liu Lihai.
Liu Lihai took the phone from the salesperson and looked at it, then looked down at the price. He looked at Lin Nuo and said, "Choose an apple one."
"No, this one. It's small and exquisite, and the color is also very good. I like it." Lin Nuo revealed a smile.
Liu Lihai said again, "This is the first time I'm giving you a gift. You should choose an apple one."
"It's really good. I like this one. Besides, as long as you give it to me personally, I will like it. "As she said this, Lin Nuo smiled again.
Liu Lihai didn't argue anymore and paid. During this process, Lin Nuo had been standing by Liu Lihai's side because Little Li was not far behind. She had to maintain intimate movements with Liu Lihai and cooperate with Qin Hong's photos.
Photos again. Lin Nuo didn't know what Qin Hong was playing. After Liu Lihai bought the phone and handed it to her, she quickly said, "Thank you. I like it very much. Hurry up and go to work. I have to go back to work too. "
"I'll ask Xiao Zhou to give you a ride." Liu Lihai said as he walked out of the phone shop.
"I'm not a child. I know how to walk. Hurry up and go to work. I won't bother you anymore. "After Lin Nuo approached Liu Lihai, she said in a small voice. After saying this, she quickly left Liu Lihai. Liu Lihai was stunned again. He instinctively looked at Lin Nuo, but Lin Nuo had already trotted away.
"What a child." Liu Lihai said in his heart and walked to the place where Xiao Zhou parked the car.
As soon as Liu Lihai got in the car, he asked Xiao Zhou to drive the car to the government compound. He still wanted to go to Shi Zhilin's office to have a look. Yesterday, he said that he would give Shi Zhilin more responsibilities. What kind of responsibilities would it be?
When returning to the government building, Liu Lihai didn't go back to his office. Instead, he went straight to Shi Zhilin's office. At the staircase on the third floor, County Leader Ma Jinxiu was walking out of her office. Liu Lihai said, "Hello, County Leader Ma."
"Oh, it's Xiao Liu. He said that he wants to adjust your work." Halfway through his words, Ma Jinxiu saw Shi Zhilin coming down from the fourth floor. He quickly stopped, nodded at Liu Lihai with a cold face, and left in a hurry.
Liu Lihai was puzzled. When he looked up and walked to the fourth floor, he saw Shi Zhilin coming down, but County Leader Ma Jinxiu had disappeared.
"Secretary Shi," Liu Lihai said.
"Are you looking for me?" Shi Zhilin asked in a cold tone.
"Yes. Yesterday, Secretary Shi said that he wanted to divide the work for me, so I came to ask Secretary Shi. What's my next work?" Liu Lihai tried to be respectful.
"I'm in the countryside. We'll talk about it later. However, you'd better focus on your work. Education is the foundation of a country. You can't be careless. "Shi Zhilin actually laughed.
Liu Lihai had to step aside and let Shi Zhilin go downstairs first. He followed behind Shi Zhilin for two steps. Shi Zhilin suddenly said, "Some things can't be repeated after this village."
Liu Lihai didn't answer Shi Zhilin. He really didn't know how to answer. But he was more and more puzzled. After returning to his office, he called County Leader Ma Jinxiu. As soon as the phone was connected, Liu Lihai said, "Hello, County Leader Ma. It's me, Xiao Liu."
"It's Xiao Liu. I'm busy. Can we talk when I come back?" After saying that, Ma Jinxiu hung up the phone directly. Because Ma Jinxiu saw Shi Zhilin walking to the parking place. She and Shi Zhilin were going to Erdao Village to participate in the celebration of Yurun Company. There were reporters from the provincial and municipal media, as well as the deputy mayor of Wuhan, who was in charge of agriculture in Jingjiang. This was the largest company in Lin County.
Liu Lihai didn't understand what Shi Zhilin was playing at. "There's no other things can be repeated after this village." Didn't this clearly tell him that the matter of increasing the workload was over? But what did Ma Jinxiu mean? Was it inconvenient for her to talk because she was with Shi Zhilin?
When thinking about this, Liu Lihai went online to check the forum. Only then did he know that today was the celebration of Yurun Company. That was a big boss that Shi Zhilin brought from Guangzhou. He invested hundreds of millions of yuan in Lin County to establish a one-stop factory line for producing ham, a pig breeding base, and so on. For Lin County, which was an agriculture-oriented county, it had driven a large area of economic development. As soon as this project was set in Lin County, it won the praise and support of Secretary Wu Haotian.
How could Liu Lihai forget about this? He had said that he would find a project for his sister-in-law's son. Once Yurun started, raising pigs would be a very profitable project, wouldn't it? Besides, at present, the state had a policy of benefiting farmers. Raising pigs would really be a project with a good future.
When thinking about this, Liu Lihai called Xiao Zhou. He wanted to go to his sister-in-law's hometown to see if it had the conditions to raise pigs.
Xiao Zhou knocked on the door and came in. Liu Lihai said, "Give me the car key. I have to go out for a while."
"Don't you need me to drive?" Xiao Zhou asked.
"I'll drive by myself. You can take a break." After saying this, Liu Lihai stood up. After Xiao Zhou handed the car key to Liu Lihai, he left Liu Lihai's office.
Liu Lihai walked out of the government building and drove in the direction of his sister-in-law's home. Her home was in Shili Fort, which was connected to Erdao Village. Erdao Village could establish such a large ham company. Shili Fort's pig breeding industry would definitely develop.
When Liu Lihai thought about this, he was a little excited. He was happy that he was the first to seize the business opportunity.
Liu Lihai drove out of the government building and drove on the road to Shili Fort. Along the way, he was happy because of this idea. It diluted the pain brought by Xiao Mu a lot. Only then did he realize that he actually really liked officialdom. When he thought about this, he thought of Leng Hongyan again. Did she go abroad? Did she settle down abroad?
Liu Lihai had no idea.
The car drove into Shili Fort. When Liu Lihai parked the car on the paddy field, there was no road in the village for cars to use. He had to get off the car and walk in the direction of the village. But when he got out of the car, there were two familiar figures walking on a field path leading to the village.
At this time, when Liu Lihai faced the two familiar figures, his doubts were far more intense than Ma Jinhua's attitude.
Why did the two familiar figures walking on the field path look so much like Qin Hong and Lin Nuo? Liu Lihai looked around and found an off-road vehicle parked not far from where he parked. Because it was parked on the other side of a big tree, Liu Lihai didn't notice it when he parked. That off-road vehicle was the one that Qin Hong drove him to Qinghe Fort yesterday. It was a car worth more than a million yuan. There were not many cars in Lin County. The man walking on the ridge must be Qin Hong.
