Huo Zhisong's house had four bedrooms and two living rooms. The decoration was very high-end. It was luxurious and magnificent. The floor was covered with shining gold bricks. The furniture was made of mahogany, and the appliances were all famous brands. At first glance, it looked like the lobby of a five-star hotel. Li Rui estimated that the decoration of his house cost at least 300,000 yuan, or even more. It was worthy of being the home of a former deputy mayor.
Compared to the dazzling decoration of the house, Xiao Xinli, the mistress of the house, was too inconspicuous. She was in her forties or fifties. Her appearance was average, her figure was medium, and her body was a little fat. Her clothes were a little tasteful, but only a little tasteful. At first glance, she looked like an ordinary woman. Who would know that she was the wife of a deputy mayor? Of course, she was no longer the wife of a deputy mayor.
Xiao Xinli expressionlessly asked Li Rui to sit down. She also wanted to pour him a drink, but he refused.
"No need to trouble you, Big Sister Xiao. I came to ask you something. Do you know Huo Zhisong's escape route?"
After asking this question, Li Rui stared at Xiao Xinli's expression. He wanted to see her reaction and infer whether she knew Huo Zhisong's escape destination.
But he was soon disappointed. Xiao Xinli's expression did not change at all. She still looked indifferent and said, "I don't know. He suddenly ran away. Before he ran away, he didn't even tell me. He didn't even take his clothes. I didn't know he was going to run away, so I didn't ask. He also wouldn't tell me. Now that he changed his phone number, I can't find him. "
Li Ruixin's head sank. He didn't know if she was lying to him or telling the truth. At least, he couldn't see any flaws from her expression.
Xiao Xinli didn't seem to be a master who would be bullied by others. She quickly expressed her dissatisfaction and asked, "Isn't Huo Zhisong's case in charge of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection? When did the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee get involved?"
When Li Rui heard that she used the word "meddle", he smiled faintly and said, "Huo Zhisong's escape set the precedent for officials in Qingyang City who broke the law and regulations and caused an extremely bad social impact. If we don't arrest him as soon as possible, more illegal officials will follow suit. At that time, the entire officialdom of Qingyang City will deteriorate and collapse. Because of this, the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee is also involved. We are cooperating with the Municipal Procuratorate, the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to investigate Huo Zhisong's whereabouts. "
Xiao Xinli said indifferently, "Is that so? Then you should go and investigate. Why are you looking for me? I don't know where he went."
Li Rui heard a trace of impatience and resistance from her words. Although he couldn't judge whether she was covering up for Huo Zhisong or not, at least he could tell that she had a bad impression of investigation officials like him. In this case, he couldn't talk to her normally and had to use coercive means. He said, "There's a new situation that you may not know. Huo Zhisong has a woman outside. The woman is young, beautiful, and has a temperament. Huo Zhisong loves her very much. He bought her a house and a car and almost went to her place as long as he had the chance. Regarding this point, you should have the most personal experience, right? "
Before Li Rui came, he had planned to use the latest news to provoke Xiao Xinli. He wanted to make her hate Huo Zhisong so that she would want to take revenge on him. That way, he would reveal his escape route.
He planned it well, but Xiao Xinli didn't fall for it at all. Her expression didn't change at all as she said coldly, "He can keep whoever he wants. It has nothing to do with me anymore. I've already filed a divorce lawsuit with the Southern District Court. If I don't hear from him in half a year, he will be granted a divorce."
Li Rui was shocked and cried out in his heart, "No way!" Did this woman really want to divorce Huo Zhisong, or was she using a fake divorce to protect herself from being harassed by the investigation team? If it was the former, then she really didn't know Huo Zhisong's whereabouts. If it was the latter, then this woman's schemes were too deep. He had underestimated her a little.
Xiao Xinli saw Li Rui's surprised and disappointed expression and smiled slightly. There was a hint of sarcasm in her smile as she said, "I know the woman you're talking about. She's Yang Chao, right? On the surface, she seems to be doted on by Huo Zhisong and has benefited a lot from him. However, she's just Huo Zhisong's plaything. Huo Zhisong will never marry her. She's now selling her best years to Huo Zhisong to play with. When she's old, she'll be worse than me. At least I still have a family, a husband, and a son. What does she have? A car? A house? Can she live with a car and a house? Hmph, she thinks she's profiting, but in fact, she's suffering a big loss. This kind of woman is stupider than a pig! "
After saying this, she sneered and said, "You want to use her to provoke me into revealing Huo Zhisong's whereabouts? Well, that's a good idea. Unfortunately, you don't know that I don't put her in my eyes at all. I don't intend to lower myself to her level. God will deal with her for me. "
Li Rui frowned. It wasn't because Xiao Xinli didn't fall into the trap, but because the woman's name sounded very familiar. It was as if he had heard it not long ago. He asked, "What's that woman's name? Yang Chao? What a strange name. "
Xiao Xinli said, "It's very strange. She's neither a man nor a woman. However, she has a younger sister. Her younger sister's name is very pleasant to hear. Her name is Yang Xi. She's also a beauty. Her younger sister's job was arranged by Huo Zhisong after she begged him for help. "
Li Rui suddenly stood up and shouted with his eyes wide open, "What? Yang Xi is her younger sister? " Speaking of this, she also remembered that she had heard the name Yang Chao from Yang Xi. At noon, she had received a phone call and angrily scolded the other party. The name she had yelled out was Yang Chao. This name was connected to her name. It was obvious that it was a sister's name.
Xiao Xinli saw his big reaction and wondered, "Do you know her younger sister?"
Li Rui smiled and shook his head, "No, no. I'm just wondering why her younger sister and her name are connected together. It's' Zhaoxi '. By the way, you seem to know Yang Chao very well. "
Xiao Xinli said lightly, "Do you think I don't know about the existence of that bitch Yang Chao? I knew about it half a year ago, but I didn't do anything after I found out. I secretly found someone to investigate her and her family's details. After that, I ignored her. Huo Zhisong only raised her to play with her, not to fall in love with her. She's not worthy of my attention. Besides, Huo Zhisong has always paid the family's money. My son and I don't have to worry about our lives. It's not worth getting angry with her. Won't it be my own fault if I hurt my body? "
When Li Rui heard this, he already knew that regardless of whether Xiao Xinli knew about Huo Zhisong's whereabouts, she wouldn't tell him. Instead of being entangled with her, it was better to find Yang Xi and see if he could find out Huo Zhisong's whereabouts from Yang Chao … Thinking of this, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. He remembered that Yang Xi and Yang Chao said on the phone at noon. It seemed that Yang Chao was going to Shenzhen and was chasing a man. Could that man be Huo Zhisong? Did he go to Shenzhen?
Thinking of this, Li Rui was very excited. He didn't want to waste any more time with Xiao Xinli, so he said, "Well, then I won't delay Big Sister Xiao's time. You do your thing, I'm leaving." After saying that, he walked around the coffee table and quickly walked to the door.
Xiao Xinli didn't expect him to be so straightforward and leave. He was not like those people from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection who harassed her like mosquitoes. She had to use all her strength to drive them away. Compared with those people, the young man in front of her was a little cute. She walked to see him and said, "You can go find Yang Chao. She may know Huo Zhisong's whereabouts. She is still very favored by Huo Zhisong, and Huo Zhisong can't live without a woman. It's very likely that he fled to other places to settle down. He will ask her to live with him. "
"These words are very kind. It seems that she really doesn't know Huo Zhisong's whereabouts."
Li Ruixin walked around twice, then stopped and turned back and said, "Okay, I'll go find Yang Chao. Thank you for your advice, Big Sister Xiao."
After coming down from the building, Li Rui slowly walked to the entrance of the community. He had already called the big baby Xuefei. After she picked up, he said, "Hello, can you help me ask Yang Xi out?"
Yao Xuefei was unhappy when she heard that. She said in a sour tone, "Why ask her out? You two have a telepathic connection. She has only known you for half a day and already has a good impression of you. You're even worse. You want to ask her out directly? Through me? Are you deliberately making me angry? "
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm looking for her for business. "
Yao Xuefei snorted and said, "Business? Why would you ask her out for business? "
Li Rui said with a smile, "I'm looking for the whereabouts of a fugitive from her sister … Aiya, baby, are you jealous? How dare you misunderstand your husband's intentions. Don't you think you should be spanked? When we meet later, don't do anything. Let me spank you first. Take off your pants and spank you. "
Yao Xuefei asked curiously, "What fugitive? Why is it related to her sister? Do you know her sister? "
Li Rui said, "I don't know her. We'll talk about it when we meet later. I'm going to eat first. After that, I'll go find you. Help me ask her out first. Just find a coffee shop or tea house or something. Let me know when you've decided on a place. But don't tell Yang Xi that I'm looking for her sister. Just tell her that I'm asking her for a favor. "
Yao Xuefei said, "I know. Who knows if she's free now? I'll try to ask her out first … If you ask her for help, she'll definitely be happy to help you. She has a good impression of you."
Li Rui laughed and scolded, "You stinky girl. I think your butt is really itchy. You'll never stop teasing your husband. Just you wait …"
Back in the car, Li Rui said to Ling Shuyao, "Let's go. Let's find a place with fewer people to eat."
Ling Shuyao didn't ask any more questions. She drove off into a secluded street nearby and found a very low-key restaurant to eat.
