The atmosphere in the car was very awkward. Neither of them spoke.
After a while, Li Rui mustered up his courage and said, "Xiao … Xiao Zhang, I just … I just … I didn't …" Zhang Hui said angrily, "Didn't what? You didn't do it on purpose? Even if you didn't do it on purpose, didn't you still kiss me? Are you going to deny it? " Li Rui quickly said, "I didn't deny it. I … I just …" Zhang Hui snorted, "Just what? Look at your courage. I didn't say you were going to take responsibility. "Li Rui smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to look into her eyes. Zhang Hui looked at him with a smile and said, "Look at your courage. Didn't you just kiss me twice? Do you have to be so scared? What's wrong with a leader bringing a female subordinate to a hotel? "Li Rui was slightly shocked and said," What did you say? Who … who brought a female subordinate to a hotel? " Zhang Hui said, "It was our city's tourism bureau. A deputy director surnamed Li brought a female subordinate to a meeting in the province. He brought her to a hotel at night and they were seen by others." Li Rui said awkwardly, "That's too much." Zhang Hui snorted, "What's too much? They were both willing parties. What does it have to do with outsiders?"
Li Rui didn't expect this girl to say such unorthodox words. He was slightly surprised and just looked at her.
Zhang Hui smiled at him and said with a bit of embarrassment, "You … Why did you kiss me just now?" Li Rui's mind exploded. Thinking back, it seemed that he couldn't help but kiss her because she looked so much like Ding Yijing. But the problem was, why didn't he have the courage to do that when he was facing Ding Yijing? Zhang Hui saw that he didn't speak and asked again. Li Rui said randomly, "I … I was muddle-headed … so …" Zhang Hui snorted, "That won't do. How could you be muddle-headed and kiss me? You must like me. Like me, right? Otherwise, why would you kiss me? "Li Rui smiled bitterly," Uh … your charm is really not small. " Zhang Hui was very happy to hear that. He looked at him with a smile for a while and forgot about the dog incident. He started the car and continued to drive.
After such an embarrassing incident, Li Rui didn't have the face to talk to Zhang Hui anymore. He kept his mouth shut the whole way, except when he was giving directions.
When the car arrived at Li Rui's apartment, Li Rui had to get off the car. He couldn't keep quiet anymore, so he braced himself and thanked Zhang Hui. On the other hand, Zhang Hui was very straightforward. She waved her delicate hands and said, "Alright, alright, don't treat me like an outsider. Hurry up and get off the car." Li Rui felt that he had wronged her. He wanted to apologize, but he couldn't open his mouth. He could only awkwardly get off the car.
Zhang Hui reversed the car and left. Li Rui smacked his lips. It was as if he could still feel the tenderness and softness of her lips. He thought about what she said about a leader taking a female subordinate to a hotel. He was secretly hesitant. Could this girl like him? Was she hinting that he could have a further relationship with her? Otherwise, why would she be so magnanimous and even talk about this kind of thing?
He didn't sleep much the previous night. At this time, he was extremely sleepy. He went home, took a shower, and fell asleep on the mattress.
The next morning, he found that there was an extra message from Zhang Hui on his phone. She had sent the message around 11 o 'clock last night. She had written, "You are the first man to kiss me!"
Li Rui's face burned when he saw this message. He didn't know what this girl meant. Could it be that she wanted him to take responsibility? But she had already made it very clear last night that she didn't take this kind of small matter to heart. She even hinted that as long as both of them were willing, she could even accept going to a hotel. So what did she mean by this?
That morning, a big thing happened. However, this big thing didn't affect Li Rui at all.
At that time, he was accompanying Song Chaoyang for research in the suburbs. Yang Ping from the city hospital suddenly sent him a message and told him, "The grandmother of your female classmate has just passed away."
Yang Ping was referring to Li Rui's female classmate, naturally, she was referring to Ding Yijing.
When Li Rui saw this message, his first thought was that Ding Yijing would definitely rush back from the provincial capital after such a big thing had happened. If he wanted to, he might be able to meet her in one or two days. However, at this time, she was grieving. Even if he met her face to face, what could he say? Comfort her? Condolences? He might as well not meet her. Pretend that he didn't know about this matter? That was completely fine, but he wouldn't have the chance to meet her.
The relationship or friendship between people was actually formed through meeting after meeting each other. Some people said that when you chat online, you can still make good friends or even become lovers even if you don't meet. That's because you don't know that every time you chat, it's equivalent to meeting each other. It's a virtual meeting on the Internet. In short, the more you interact with each other, the closer the relationship between two people will be. If you don't meet or talk, then you can forget about making any progress in your relationship.
Taking some time out, Li Rui called Yang Ping and asked her if she had seen "my classmate." Yang Ping said that she hadn't seen her for the time being. She also said that if she didn't see her in the afternoon, then she might not come to the city hospital again. Li Rui thought about it and agreed. The old lady who passed away had to be cremated at the funeral home. After the Ding family finished the discharge procedures and other related follow-up, they would naturally leave the hospital. Why would Ding Yijing go there? After thanking Yang Ping, he had other plans in his heart.
At around one o 'clock in the afternoon, Li Yulan suddenly sent Li Rui a text message, telling him that she was already in the city. She said that if he had time, he should find time to meet her.
Li Rui was very happy to receive this news. When he thought about how selfless the beautiful deputy secretary treated him, and how intimate he was with her in her office, he couldn't wait to meet her. Unfortunately, Song Chaoyang's research wasn't finished yet. He could only wait. He texted Li Yulan back, "Where are you? I'll find you tonight if I have time. " After a day of research, Li Rui couldn't wait to get off work and leave. This was the first time he was in such a hurry to get off work. Not only did he want to see Li Yulan, but he also wanted to find time to meet Ding Yijing. Of course, this wasn't something he could arrange. Everything had to be approved by his boss, Song Chaoyang.
Unfortunately, Song Chaoyang seemed to be used to him walking back to the Qingyang Hotel at night. He didn't ask him to leave first when it was time to get off work like before. Li Rui couldn't take the initiative to ask, so he could only follow along. This dragged on until around eight o 'clock in the evening.
Li Rui had already learned about the latest developments in Sun Xiaobao's case from Li Ming. In fact, there wasn't much progress.
The ruffians who were caught by the police beating up Wang Guofang and the others were indeed part of the Hanshui Real Estate Development Company's demolition team. They confessed to beating up Sun Xiaobao's family. When they were asked about the reason, they said that they couldn't stand the arrogance of Wang Guofang and the others. They said that Sun Xiaobao died on his own, but Wang Guofang and the others insisted on blaming it on Hanshui Real Estate Development Company. They even asked for a huge amount of compensation. They were angry, so they beat them up. The police asked them if they had anything to do with Sun Xiaobao's murder, but they all denied it. In addition, there were a few main leaders who were still on the run. They hadn't been caught yet. If they caught them, there might be some good news.
In addition, the medical staff who gave the fake autopsy report in the city's Fourth Hospital admitted that they were negligent in their work. However, they didn't admit that they were instructed to do so. Zhang Rui, who was in charge of the autopsy, admitted that he drank too much on the day of the autopsy. His mind wasn't clear, so he didn't check carefully. Although such an answer was ambiguous and not easily convincing, it could explain the fact that there was a problem with the autopsy report. The joint investigation team couldn't do anything for the time being, so they could only continue to investigate further.
On the way back to the Qingyang Hotel, Li Rui reported the incident to Song Chaoyang. Song Chaoyang wasn't satisfied after hearing it. He asked Li Rui to pass on his instructions to Li Ming, the joint investigation team, and the Southern District Public Security Bureau's task force on Sun Xiaobao's case. "You must increase the intensity of the investigation. Carry out a thorough, in-depth, and detailed investigation. Strive to achieve greater progress in the shortest time possible."
In fact, the city's investigation of the former mayor of the Southern District, Lv Xingye, was gradually being carried out. It was just that it hadn't officially started yet. The city's Commission for Discipline Inspection set up a special investigation team to dig up all of Lv Xingye's violations of the law. The city's Public Security Bureau's technical investigation team was already in place. They could investigate Lv Xingye's office phone and personal phone records at any time. An invisible net had already covered Lv Xingye's body. It could consign him to eternal damnation at any time.
Song Chaoyang laughed. "Xiao Rui, did you know that someone saw that I was going to deal with Lv Xingye? In just one day, they sent more than ten complaint letters to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. All of them were about Lv Xingye's violations of the law." Li Rui smiled. "Is that so?" But in his heart, he was also wondering if Lv Xingye would reveal to the investigation team that he had once given him, the first secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, a shopping card. Even though he could deny this matter, but as the saying goes, flies don't bite flawless eggs. He could pretend to be a fool, but the others weren't. If the whole world knew about this, he wouldn't be able to face anyone anymore.
Song Chaoyang continued, "You said that Li Ming had seen Han Shui enter Lv Xingye's office many times, and Lv Xingye personally sent him out. The two of them have a very close relationship. That's why I specifically asked Feng Weidong to send a technical investigation team to check Lv Xingye's past communication records. Especially the time before the corpse snatching incident, all of the calls Lv Xingye received and made … Maybe it's just as you all suspected, Lv Xingye was helping someone clean up after them. "
