Gao Zixuan said, "Sister Ah Bing, it's okay if your godbrother doesn't care about you. You'll have a sister-in-law in the future. Isn't it the same if your sister-in-law cares about you?"
Lu Qingman looked at her strangely. She didn't know why she said that.
Bai Bing laughed, "I'm just kidding. My sister-in-law is so busy with work. She definitely doesn't have time to care about me. Besides, I'm already an adult. Does she still need to care about me? " Lu Qingman didn't want to say anything. She said, "We're all in the provincial capital. Of course, we should care about each other. I'll give you my phone number later. Call me if you need anything. Don't be shy. "
Gao Zixuan stood up and said, "Sister Qingman, are you going to wash your hands?" Lu Qingman nodded and said, "Okay."
Li Rui stood up and made way for her. He watched them leave.
Bai Bing suddenly shouted angrily, "You're so mean! And you didn't contact me for so long. "Li Rui smiled and said," I didn't dare to say that I was busy. It's my fault. I've let you down. "Bai Bing scoffed," Do you think just saying sorry is enough? "Li Rui said," What else do you want? "Bai Bing said," Go to the bar with me tonight! "Li Rui was shocked. "Go to the bar?" Bai Bing giggled and said, "No, I still need to go back to the leader's house." Li Rui said softly, "Why? You're not going to stay with your sister-in-law?"
Only Lu Qingman and Gao Zixuan stood in front of the female washroom sink.
Lu Qingman frowned and asked, "Girl, why did you ask me to care about Bai Bing?" A sinister smile appeared on Gao Zi Xuan's face as she said, "Tell me first, have you ever suspected Bai Bing's relationship with that person?" Lu Qingman didn't want others to know that she didn't trust Li Rui. She shook her head and said, "No." Gao Zixuan scoffed, "No? Was there really nothing? When we were in the car on the way here, Li Rui had just said that we were the only two people he knew in the provincial capital. Now, he suddenly had a godsister who was young and beautiful. Even I was jealous. Wasn't he lying to my face? Since he had lied once, it was possible that he had lied a second or third time. Would you believe him just because he said that she was his godsister? Maybe she's his lover. "
Lu Qingman frowned and said, "No, Li Rui is not that kind of person. I don't think Bai Bing is that kind of woman either." Gao Zixuan sneered, "Li Rui is not that kind of person? How do you know? "Lu Qingman said firmly," I just know. "Gao Zixuan laughed and asked," He's been in contact with other women behind your back, and you don't know. Isn't that right? "Lu Qingman said," Aiya, all right, don't say anymore. You damn girl, you're always giving me trouble. Don't affect my trust in him, okay? "Gao Zixuan said," Okay, okay, okay, I won't say anymore. The reason why I asked you to pay more attention to Bai Bing is because I'm afraid that she's Li Rui's lover. "
Lu Qingman said doubtfully, "If she's really Xiao Rui's lover, why would I care about her?" Gao Zixuan said, "Aiya, we can't be sure yet. That's why I want you to keep in contact with her and take the opportunity to learn more about her private life. If she's really having an affair with Li Rui, you can also take the opportunity to suppress her and not give her a chance to meet with Li Rui. "Lu Qingman laughed and said," No, definitely not. Xiao Rui is not that kind of person … "
"Hmph, you really won't agree to go to the bar with me?" Bai Bing saw that Li Rui wouldn't agree no matter what she said and started to get angry.
Li Rui sighed and said, "How can I agree to that? I still have things to do tonight. After I'm done, I have to go to my boss's house to sleep at Song Shuji's house. I don't have time to accompany you. "Bai Bing said," Can't you go back later? "Li Rui said," No, they'll ask me if I go back later. "Bai Bing snorted and said," Why are you so hateful? Oh, it's fine if you don't care about me normally, but today I finally got to meet you. Can't I let you accompany me for a while? Are you my brother? "Li Rui said," Of course I am. " Bai Bing looked back at the direction of the bathroom and snorted, "If you don't agree, I'll tell sister-in-law about our relationship. Hehe." Li Rui was shocked and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We have nothing to do with each other." Bai Bing snorted and said, "You've seen me pee and you've even carried me to bed. Don't try to deny it. Of course, hehe, it's fine if you deny it. Let's see what sister-in-law will say. They're back. I'll tell them now. You should get ready for the execution, haha. "
Li Rui raised his eyes and looked over. Sure enough, Lu Qing Man and Gao Zi Xuan had already walked back. He was so scared that his expression changed, and he said, "Alright, alright, I promise you. I'll accompany you later." Only then did Bai Bing smile in satisfaction. She didn't say anything and just picked up the teacup and drank some water.
In the middle of the meal, Lu Qingman received a call from Yu Hongwei. Yu Hongwei told her that her father, Lu Zhouxing, was already at home and was free at any time. She could go with Li Rui now.
Lu Qingman told Li Rui about this and the two of them ate faster.
After the meal, Li Rui paid the bill and Bai Bing sent the three of them out. She watched as the three of them got into the car and drove away. A faint feeling of loneliness and melancholy rose in her heart.
Li Rui's briefcase was still at Lu Qingman's house. The golden beast was still inside the briefcase, so he had to go home first. Gao Zixuan sent the two of them home and left after saying goodbye.
For the entire day, Li Rui was intimately attached to this tall young lady. Although they weren't very intimate, he still enjoyed her anger up close and felt good. When she left, her heart felt empty. She really couldn't bear to leave.
She took the briefcase and the two of them got into Li Rui's Santana. He drove them to the Provincial Party Committee's compound.
On the way, Li Rui said, "Honey, put your hand into the briefcase and feel it." Lu Qingman put her hand into the briefcase and felt the golden beast through the compartment. She asked curiously, "What is this?" Li Rui said, "Take it out and you'll know."
Lv Qingman opened two compartments in a row before taking out the golden beast. Li Rui casually lit up the reading lamp above her head so that she could take a closer look.
The golden light was dazzling.
Lu Qingman was greatly surprised and said, "What is this? It's so heavy. " Li Rui said, "Today, in front of Gao Zixuan, I didn't tell the truth. Actually, I was given two treasures. This is the other one. I was planning to give it to Uncle Lu. What do you think?" Lu Qingman carefully looked at the golden beast in her hand and said, "What is this? It doesn't look like a lion, it doesn't look like a tiger. Is it made of gold? Don't tell me it's made of gold. This is much more valuable than the small mirror inlaid with gold and jade. Even if I don't know how to appraise relics, I can tell. " Li Rui nodded and said, "It's made of pure gold. The gold itself may not be worth much, but the craftsmanship is very artistic. Moreover, this is from the Western Han Dynasty. I estimate that it's worth one or two million."
Lu Qingman was so shocked that her little tongue was about to stick out. She said, "You want to give it to Dad?" Li Rui frowned and said, "I'm not worried about anything else. I'm just worried that this treasure is also from an ancient tomb. Uncle Lu will think it's bad luck." Lu Qingman seemed to think of the dead and the coffin. She was so scared that she put the golden beast back into the briefcase and carefully zipped it up. She said, "I don't know. I'll show it to him later and we'll know." Li Rui said, "I didn't discuss it with you and decided to give this golden beast to Uncle Lu. You won't be angry, right?" Lu Qingman said, "Why would I be? I'm very happy that you care about Dad. "
Li Rui held her hand and said, "That Bai Bing just now, since I met her, including today, I've only seen her four times. Although we are sworn siblings, our relationship is more distant than that of a normal friend." Lu Qingman nodded and said gently, "I just realized that you seem to be a good samaritan everywhere, and the people you save are all girls." Li Rui couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ai, I can't say it. Who told me to come here? But in the future, I won't do that again. Even if I don't think about my own safety, I have to think about my good wife. I won't take any more risks. "Lu Qingman nodded and said," You're right to think that way … "
When the car arrived at the entrance of the Provincial Party Committee's courtyard, Yu Hongwei was already waiting there. He gave the car a pass and got into the car. The Santana drove straight in.
After the car stopped, Lu Qingman walked in front while Li Rui and Yu Hongwei lagged behind. The three of them walked into the building.
Li Rui asked in a low voice, "How's Governor Lu feeling?" Yu Hongwei chuckled and said, "Not bad."
Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief. The scene of him and Sun Yaozu waiting here for four to five hours was still vivid in his mind. He was really afraid that his boss would do the same thing again.
When the three of them arrived at the living room, Lu Zhouxing happened to be coming down the stairs. When he saw his precious daughter and Li Rui, a loving smile appeared on his face. He walked over and hugged Lu Qingman and said, "Manman, it's really not easy to see you. It's all thanks to Xiao Rui." Lu Qingman was extremely shy and said, "What are you saying? If you weren't so busy, I would definitely come over every day to accompany you."
Lu Zhouxing handed a scroll in his hand to Li Rui and said, "Go back and hang this up."
Yu Hongwei was pouring tea for the two of them when he saw this scene. His eyes were wide open.
Li Rui hurriedly stepped forward to receive it and asked, "Uncle Lu, this is …" Lu Zhouxing smiled but didn't say anything. He signaled with his eyes for him to open it and take a look.
Li Rui held the shaft with one hand and put the other hand down. When he reached the bottom, the contents of the scroll were revealed.
This scroll was a vertical scroll and wasn't too big. There was a piece of writing paper on it, but there was only one word written in thick ink: Abstain!
Just this one word!
Abstain was a verb, usually followed by a noun. However, there was nothing followed here. No one knew what to abstain from. Abstain from sex, alcohol, pride, and impatience?
The author didn't say anything, so there was an endless meaning. As for what to abstain from, it depended on the viewer's own feelings.
