Li Tao was addicted to playing mahjong, and she lost the most tonight, so she wanted to play for another hour. When she heard that Lu Tao wanted to go back to rest, she said to Zhou Youliang, "Director Zhou, since Yingying still wants to play, let's play for another hour! In the past, it was always Yingying who suggested leaving first. It's rare that she's in such a good mood tonight, so let's fulfill her wish! As for Little Lu, he's not participating anyway, so it doesn't matter if he goes back to rest. We don't have a lot of points! "
Seeing that Lu Tao was about to leave, He Ying's interest waned, so she said to Li Tao, "Tao Zi, let's forget about it. I think Director Zhou is a bit tired. Let's leave early. Anyway, we have plenty of time in the future.
You can play again next time! "Li Tao saw that He Ying wanted to play for another hour, but now she was backing out. She looked at her strangely and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Su Lishu's gaze.
Before Zhou Youliang left, he called Lu Tao to the side and said with a smile, "Little Lu, when you're free in a few days, I'll treat you to a drink. You have to give me face! I heard from Yingying that she and you are like siblings. I'm Yingying's uncle, so we should get along like relatives, right? When the time comes, if I need your help, I hope you won't refuse, haha! "
Lu Tao laughed, "Director Zhou, Political Commissar He indeed treats me like a younger brother. You're her uncle, which means you're my uncle. If you need my help with anything, as long as it's within my ability, I'll definitely help!"
Seeing that he agreed so readily, Zhou Youliang couldn't help but smile. He grabbed his hand tightly and shook it affectionately while thanking him non-stop …
After sending Zhou Youliang and the others off, He Ying saw that Lu Tao was about to open the door on the other side. She suddenly stopped him and asked in a low voice, "How long will it take for you to hike to Shuangxiong Mountain? Can you make it back before dinner the day after tomorrow? "
Lu Tao nodded and said, "Our plan is to leave early tomorrow morning and hike for a day. We'll camp at the foot of Shuangxiong Mountain and finish the rest of the journey the next day. We'll return to the county around five o 'clock."
Speaking of this, a devilish smile appeared on his face as he asked in a low voice, "Political Commissar He, are you addicted to my dishes? Do you want me to continue cooking the night after tomorrow?"
He Ying spat at him lightly but didn't deny it. She said softly, "Then I'll go buy some groceries in the afternoon the day after tomorrow and wait for you to come back so we can cook together. This time, we'll divide the work. I'll be in charge of washing and chopping the vegetables, and you'll be in charge of cooking. Is that okay? "
Lu Tao hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try to come back early the day after tomorrow to cook."
Before they parted, He Ying suddenly said to Lu Tao, "Little Lu, you're not allowed to call me Political Commissar He anymore. It's so awkward! You can either call me Sister He or Sister Ying, or just call me by my name. You can also call me Immortal Lady He, but you're not allowed to call me 'Political Commissar He' anymore. Do you hear me? "
Lu Tao replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll call you Sister Ying from now on. I won't call you Political Commissar He anymore!"
After returning home, Lu Tao went to the balcony and lit a cigarette. As he smoked, he carefully recalled the scene of him secretly holding hands with He Ying under the mahjong table. He only felt that his whole body was soft, and an indescribable sense of joy and pride arose spontaneously. It turned out that He Ying, the goddess that he had secretly loved for a long time and had only dared to look up to in the past, also liked him. This was really an unexpected surprise, and it also proved that he did have a little charm …
When the word "charm" came to Lu Tao's mind, the tall and burly figure of Zhou Yihong suddenly appeared in his mind. He recalled the scene of He Ying's husband coming to "catch them in the act" that night, and the scene of Zhou Yihong awkwardly climbing from the balcony window to his house with his help. It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head, and the restless passion and impulse in his heart instantly cooled down.
Now, the biggest question in his mind was: What was the relationship between Zhou Yihong and He Ying? If her husband didn't hear anything, why would he bring people to catch them in the act for no reason?
Now, he was sure that He Ying's husband didn't know that the person who stayed in He Ying's room that night was Zhou Yihong. Otherwise, this matter would have been spread all over the city. If He Ying wasn't Zhou Yihong's lover, why would he come to a girl's house in the middle of the night?
But, if He Ying was Zhou Yihong's lover, why did she have such a cold attitude that kept people thousands of miles away? From her later words and actions, it was obvious that she hated or even hated Zhou Yihong, and had repeatedly said that she didn't want to see him in the future. What was going on?
After thinking about it, Lu Tao could only think of such a reason that barely made sense: He Ying was indeed Zhou Yihong's lover before, but later she was tired of this secret lover life, or she didn't like Zhou Yihong anymore, so she wanted to end this "ill-fated relationship". However, Zhou Yihong had fallen in love with her, and he couldn't bear to give up this relationship at all. So, he had been begging He Ying to change her mind and not leave him. That night, he came to He Ying's place to persuade her to continue their relationship …
When he came to this conclusion, Lu Tao further analyzed the reason why He Ying was willing to secretly hold hands with him: She was eager to get rid of Zhou Yihong, but she and her husband had been separated for a long time, and the husband and wife had been separated for a long time. So, it was impossible for her to break up with Zhou Yihong in the name of family. So, she wanted to find him to be her lover. This way, if Zhou Yihong wanted to pester her in the future, she could say that she already had a boyfriend, and this reason was the best excuse for all heterosexual lovers to break up …
When he thought of this, Lu Tao couldn't help but feel scared. If his deduction was correct, then He Ying was really too scheming and shrewd. Moreover, once Zhou Yihong knew that He Ying had found him to be her "boyfriend," he would definitely hate him to the core. He was the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. If he wanted to take revenge, it would be a very simple matter.
Lu Tao knew very well that although he had a deep relationship with Zhou Yihong, and his father was his savior, a person who was deeply in love couldn't be predicted with common sense. It was very likely that he would lose his mind and do something crazy. No one was an exception to this.
