Song Xiaoli smiled awkwardly and said, "Director Li, it's not convenient here. Can we talk somewhere else?" She pointed at the spot where Brother Yang had parked his car. It was near the wall and there were no street lights. Although there was light, it was dark and convenient for them to talk.
Li Rui didn't think about why it was inconvenient to talk here, but it was convenient to talk there. He nodded.
Song Xiaoli was overjoyed and led the way to where the Jetta was.
Li Rui had only taken two steps when he suddenly received a call. He took out his phone and saw that it was Dong Jieyu calling. He stopped to answer the call so that the stranger in front of him wouldn't hear their conversation.
"I was wondering why you weren't here yet. It turns out that you were already here. You even paid for me?"
Dong Jieyu's teasing voice came from the other end of the line. She was obviously in a good mood.
Li Rui smiled and said, "I just came back and didn't dare to talk to you. I don't want others to know about our relationship. Are you out yet? I'm waiting for you. "
Dong Jieyu said, "I'm in the car. I'll be back soon. Why are you so bold tonight? You still have so much time to look for me?"
Li Ruixin felt ashamed and said, "Qingman went back to the provincial capital to take maternity leave. That's why I have time to accompany my good wife."
Dong Jieyu said, "Oh. I'll be back soon." She hung up the phone.
Li Rui put away his phone. He thought that Dong Jieyu would be back soon. He looked at the stranger who was waiting for him two meters away and suddenly didn't want to move. He said, "If you have something to say, say it here."
Song Xiaoli saw that he suddenly changed his mind and was caught off guard. He smiled and said, "Director Li, here … here is the intersection. It's not convenient for people to come and go. It won't be good if someone sees us. Let's go somewhere else."
Li Rui became more and more impatient and frowned. "Isn't there no one here? Who was the one who introduced you? Why didn't anyone inform me beforehand? "
Song Xiaoli could hear the impatience in his voice and felt uneasy. She suddenly had an idea and said, "Actually, I'm not the main character. The main character has stopped the car. I want to take you to meet him."
This made Li Rui suspicious. He thought to himself, I'm considered a big shot in the city. Other than the municipal leaders, no one would dare to ask me to meet them when they come to my neighborhood. It doesn't matter if this person is a divisional leader or a member of society. Firstly, I'm the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Secondly, this person is here to ask for my help. It's impossible for him to do something so impolite. Even if this person in front of me is insensible, the person in charge of this matter should understand this principle. Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat. The person in charge of this matter actually drove the car and parked the car personally and asked this subordinate to come and greet me? This is even more wrong. Isn't this putting the cart before the horse and the biggest joke in the world?
Li Rui thought again. Since the other party said that he was introduced by a friend, why didn't this so-called friend greet me before? Therefore, the suspicion in his heart grew even stronger. However, he didn't rashly question the other party. Instead, he planned to quietly pry into the other party's purpose. He deliberately said angrily, "I don't care who the main character is. I just want to ask you one thing. Do you know the rules? Do you know how to do things? You're asking me for help and you actually want me to meet your master? May I ask what kind of big shot your master is? "
Song Xiaoli finally understood why he was suddenly impatient and unhappy. It was because he didn't want to walk a few more steps. He cursed in his heart for being lazy. He smiled apologetically and said, "Aiyo, I'm sorry, Director Li. We didn't think about it thoroughly. Okay, how about this, please wait here for a moment. I'll go and call him … He's not my master, he's my brother. Haha, please wait for a moment."
Li Rui watched him leave and wondered what he was up to. At this moment, he saw a bright light at the west gate. When he turned to look, he saw an SUV driving into the neighborhood. The SUV wasn't just any other car. It was Dong Jieyu's Audi Q5. He had an idea and took out his phone to call her.
Before Dong Jieyu could say anything, Li Rui said, "There are two people with bad intentions looking for me. I don't know what they want to do. How about this, don't drive back first. Park your car under the west wall of our building. After you turn off the engine, don't get out of the car. Stay in the car and watch for me. I'll be standing next to the vending machine at the T-junction. Those two people will be here soon. If they do anything bad to me, such as framing me, you can help me testify in the future."
Dong Jieyu asked curiously, "What nonsense are you talking about? Since you know that they want to harm you, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Can't you just go home? "
Li Rui said, "I can go home. I can even get the police to arrest them. But I just want to see what they want to do."
Dong Jieyu said sarcastically, "I think you have nothing better to do tonight!"
While they were talking, the Q5 arrived at the junction. If they turned left, they would turn north. Dong Jieyu, who was sitting in the car, saw that there were already two cars parked under the west wall of their building. He said, "There's no space left. Forget it, I'll go home and watch for you from the balcony. Anyway, I can see you from the balcony."
Li Rui said, "That's fine too. Hurry up …" He then threw the jewelry box back into the grass.
While the two were talking, Song Xiaoli was reporting the latest changes to Brother Yang in the Jetta.
Brother Yang reacted quickly and said, "I can go and see him, but he's not standing in a good position. If we make a move there, we will be seen by people in three directions. We have to lure him to a secluded place. How about this, I'll drive around to the path on the north side of the lawn behind him. I just saw that the paths on both sides of the lawn can be parked and cars can pass. I'll stop the car there and then lure him to the depths of the path. After that, you can do it."
Song Xiaoli was shocked and shouted, "Aren't you going to do it? Why am I the one doing it?"
Brother Yang scolded, "Who told you to sell me to him, you idiot? Now that I'm the one you're talking about, his attention will be on me. How can I make a move? You, on the other hand, can make a move behind him. I'll create an opportunity for you. "
Song Xiaoli swallowed his saliva and said, "Okay, give me the handkerchief."
Brother Yang took out a thin, transparent plastic bag with a white handkerchief inside. He handed it to him and said, "Hide it in your pocket. Don't open the plastic bag first. Only open it when you make a move, or the fragrance will disperse."
Song Xiaoli glanced back at Li Rui. Seeing that he was talking on the phone with his back facing him, he felt relieved and reached out to take the handkerchief, stuffing it into his trouser pocket.
Brother Yang started the car, turned around, and drove to the lawn where Li Rui was.
Li Rui's house was in a very small neighborhood. There were only six buildings from the south to the north. Each building had four to five units, and there was a distance of about forty meters between each building. Ten meters of this distance was used for the lawn, and the paths on both sides of the lawn (north and south) were used for parking and passing cars.
Li Rui was now at the T-junction facing the west gate of the neighborhood. It was at the westernmost end of the lawn south of Li Rui's building, and at the same time, diagonally facing Dong Jieyu's balcony of Unit 1, 201.
After Brother Yang turned around, he drove past the intersection where Li Rui was, along the north side of the lawn, which was also the path under Dong Jieyu's building. He drove a dozen meters to the east and stopped by the lawn. After getting out of the car, he turned back to see Li Rui.
At the same time, Dong Jieyu had already driven the car to the entrance of her garage. Since Li Rui was in a hurry, she didn't park in the garage. After getting out of the car, she hurriedly walked up the steps, entered the unit, and returned home to monitor.
"Director Li, nice to meet you. It's an honor to meet you at last!"
Brother Yang walked up to Li Rui about two to three meters away and greeted him politely. He stretched out his hands and made a posture of normal social etiquette.
Li Rui looked at him with the help of the street lights. He was young, dressed casually, and had a good appearance. At first glance, he knew that this person wasn't a big deal. Li Rui immediately became vigilant. He didn't shake hands with him and said coldly, "Let's skip the formalities. Who introduced you? Why are you looking for me? "
Brother Yang was infuriated after being ignored by him, but he couldn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "Director Li, there are so many people coming and going here, so it's not convenient to talk. Let's go inside and talk, okay? I even brought some gifts for you in the car. "
Li Rui shook his head coldly and said, "No! If you have something to say, say it here. "
Brother Yang saw that Li Rui didn't follow his plan. He was shocked and angry, but he didn't give up. He said, "You can say it here, but it's not convenient for outsiders to see those gifts."
A cold smile appeared on Li Rui's face as he asked, "What gift?"
Brother Yang casually said, "Just some famous cigarettes and wine. They're not worth much. Director Li, you must accept them."
Li Rui said, "I can accept them. But you haven't told me what you want me to do."
Brother Yang begged, "Director Li, let's talk inside, okay? I'm really afraid that outsiders will see us."
Li Rui sneered and said, "I'm not afraid. What are you afraid of?"
Brother Yang saw that Li Rui was determined not to move, so he lost his patience. He looked around and found that there were no passersby in three directions. He secretly gritted his teeth and decided that he might as well do it here. He secretly gave Song Xiaoli, who was standing behind Li Rui, a look.
Song Xiaoli also looked around and found that there were no outsiders. She reached into her trouser pocket and opened it. She put two fingers in and took out the knockout fragrance handkerchief …
