After seeing Wu Zhiqi disappear into the elevator, He Ying glanced at Wu Zhigang, who stayed in the corridor to monitor her. She suddenly waved to Lu Tao and said, "Little Tao, come in and be my witness. Let's see if I have an adulterer."
Lu Tao looked at her in bewilderment. When he saw her unnoticeably wink at him, he immediately reacted. She had something to say to him, but she couldn't say it in front of Wu Zhigang, so she found an excuse to ask him to go to her room.
So, he turned around and glared at Wu Zhigang. Then, he quickly walked into He Ying's living room. "Bang!" He Ying had already closed the door to the living room.
Lu Tao was a little confused. He asked, "Political Commissar He, your husband was so unreasonable. He insulted you, kicked the door, and even hit you. Why didn't you call the police? Although this is a family matter between you and your husband, his actions are already considered domestic violence. You can ask your colleagues to teach him a lesson! "
He Ying didn't say anything. She waved her hand at him, then pointed inside the bedroom. Her face showed a trace of panic.
Lu Tao was shocked and subconsciously stared at the closed bedroom door. He immediately understood that He Ying was indeed hiding someone in the bedroom, and judging from her panicked and nervous expression, the person hiding in the bedroom was definitely a man. Perhaps he was the "adulterer" that Wu Zhiqi had mentioned!
When this thought popped up in his mind, for some reason, Lu Tao suddenly felt a surge of jealousy in his heart. Accompanying this jealousy was a sense of disappointment of having his idol shattered.
In Lu Tao's mind, He Ying was the most perfect and classic image of a goddess. She had a slender figure, looked like a fairy, was dignified and elegant, and was the deputy political commissar of the county's Public Security Bureau at such a young age. She was perfect. If she wasn't married and a few years older than him, he would have pursued her crazily after breaking up with his ex-girlfriend.
But, what he didn't expect was that such a perfect goddess in his mind would find a lover when she already had a husband. And, at this moment, this lover was hiding in her bedroom. Although he knew that He Ying must have her own reasons for doing this, and that her husband was indeed a jerk, it was still an affair after all, and it would damage her reputation and image …
He Ying saw that his expression kept changing, and even revealed a trace of disapproval. She knew what he was thinking at the moment, and her white face suddenly flushed red. Using a shy and coy tone, she said in a low voice, "Little Tao, don't misunderstand. Things aren't what you think. However, today's matter is more troublesome. I need your help to deal with tonight's matter. Otherwise, something big will happen. Also, you have to keep what happened tonight a secret. You can't tell anyone. "
When Lu Tao saw how mysterious she was and how she repeatedly reminded him to keep it a secret, he was even more convinced that the person hiding in her bedroom was her lover. However, it wasn't appropriate for him to point it out, so he could only reveal an unnatural smile and whisper, "Political Commissar He, don't worry. I'm not a thin-mouthed person. I'll keep the secret for you. What do you want me to do? "
He Ying didn't say anything. She walked to the bedroom door and gently knocked on it. Soon, the door opened. A burly, white-haired, dignified man in his fifties stood at the door of the bedroom. When he saw Lu Tao standing behind He Ying, a surprised expression appeared on his face. But this expression was fleeting, and he immediately resumed his inviolable dignified demeanor.
He Ying pointed at Lu Tao and whispered to the man, "This is my neighbor. His name is Lu Tao, and he's a cadre in the county tax bureau. He has a good character and is reliable in his work. He's a good friend that I trust quite a bit. He's here to help us out this time."
When she introduced him, she specifically emphasized that Lu Tao's "good character and is reliable in his work." Obviously, she wanted the middle-aged man to dispel his doubts and accept Lu Tao's help.
The middle-aged man nodded solemnly. He reached out his hand and shook Lu Tao's hand, but didn't say anything.
From the way he reached out and the way he did it, Lu Tao judged that he was a leader of a high rank.
However, this was understandable. With He Ying's outstanding appearance, elegant temperament, and her identity as the Deputy Political Commissar of the Public Security Bureau, if she wanted to find a lover, it would either be a prominent high-ranking official or a billionaire. Ordinary men wouldn't be able to catch her eye.
Although this man was a little older, he was tall and handsome. He must have been a handsome man when he was young. Moreover, from his extraordinary temperament and dignified demeanor, he must be a high-ranking official now. At the very least, he must be a leader of a division or higher.
At this point, Lu Tao finally understood why He Ying was willing to endure Wu Zhiqi's insults and beatings. The reason why she didn't dare to call the police was because she was hiding a man in the bedroom. Moreover, this man could be a high-ranking official. If Wu Zhiqi and his gang caught them red-handed, not only would both their reputations be ruined, the man could also lose his position and even be punished by the party …
Seeing that the middle-aged man didn't say anything, He Ying asked Lu Tao anxiously, "Little Tao, do you have any way to help us get out of here? Right now, Wu Zhigang is guarding the corridor. Wu Zhiqi will bring people up soon. If he breaks down the door in a fit of rage or calls the police over, things will be irreparable. "
Lu Tao stared at the middle-aged man. Although he still maintained a calm and dignified demeanor, there was a trace of worry and panic in his eyes. Lu Tao tilted his head and thought for a moment. Suddenly, he asked He Ying, "Is there an anti-theft window on your balcony?"
He Ying immediately understood what he meant. She was a little depressed as she said, "There is. Even if there isn't an anti-theft window, we are on the ninth floor. We can't escape through the window!"
Lu Tao walked out of the master bedroom and went to the guest room next door that led to the balcony. He opened the door between the balcony and the guest room and walked to the right side of the balcony. He turned on the flashlight on his phone and shone it on the wall between the balcony and his master bedroom. He found that the distance between the two was only about three meters. Moreover, about one meter below the balcony, there was an iron shelf with an air conditioner on it. There was a copper pipe that led to He Ying's master bedroom and connected to the air conditioner in the bedroom.
