CHAPTER 401 - ELDEST YOUNG MASTER

Not good, my smile isn't good, it's a dry laugh, Liu Yue said. Come, First Young Master, just smile happily, like how you used to laugh in the past, let's have a laugh …

Haha … I was really moved by Liu Yue's infection and really started laughing.

Mm … Not bad, not bad, that's what I meant by smiling, Liu Yue said. Alright, I won't talk to you for now, I'm going to be busy for a while, I still haven't dealt with today's official matters, bye "After she finished speaking, Liu Yue hung up the phone.

After finishing the call with Liu Yue, I lit up a cigarette and stood in front of the window, looking at the dark and cloudy weather outside. It looked like it was going to snow again.

Where is Qing Er now? Were they at home?

I reached for my phone and called Qing Er's mother's home. There would be someone to pick up the phone from, it was Qing Er's mother.

Mom, it's me! No, I said.

Aiya, it's Jiang Feng, Qing Er's mother was very happy, and she did not allow me to say anything else, so she continued: Qing Er just arrived home, and your phone call came right away. It's so timely, haha … Just you wait, I'll have Qing Er answer the phone … Then, Qing Er's mother's shout came out from the phone, Qing Er, quickly come over and answer the phone. Jiang Feng called. Jiang Feng is not bad, when you go out, I know that I care about you, and I remember you …

Mother Qing Er seemed to be very happy with the call from me, as if showing her concern and care for Qing Er.

I know that my mother-in-law treats her son-in-law well because her daughter is married to another family and loves them, and some old women treat their daughter-in-law badly because her daughter-in-law took away his son and loves him. It was the same thing, but it was different feelings. Fortunately, my mother didn't have this kind of mentality, and she treated Qing Er as her own daughter. Similarly, my mom also wanted to love Liu Yue, but she didn't have the chance or the possibility.

At the same time, my heart relaxed. Qing Er didn't run there, but went back to her mother's place, so what could I worry about? A stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

After a while, Qing Er's voice came out: Hello —

Qing Er, you went back to your mother's house, why didn't you let me know? I didn't see you in the morning, and after searching through all of your acquaintances, I couldn't find you, I said into the phone, "Are you just going to leave like this?

Qing Er's voice was very low and weak on the other end of the phone, but it was still very calm. Who told you to look for me? What's wrong with me going back to my mother's house? I can't come back? I'm a free man. I can go anywhere I want, so why do I have to report to you?

You — — I choked for a moment, then said awkwardly: "Qing Er, you can't say it like that. You are my wife and I am your husband.

Qing Er said: You also know that I am your wife, and you also know that you are my husband? Think about it. What have you done? I don't want to leave, I quarrel with you at home every day? I don't want to leave, just touch your dirty body everyday? I feel sick just thinking about what you did, and I don't even want to look at you. I feel like throwing up just thinking about what you did to me, and how my body must have been infected by that dirty bug …"

I said, Qing Er, listen to me. I am really innocent, and the matter is still pending. I am currently investigating …

Qing Er said: I know that it is under investigation, and your old lover is the one presiding over the investigation team. She will personally investigate and personally clean up your butt, okay, the two of you can sing a few songs, perform, group up, I really want to see, what kind of tricks your old lover can come up with for you. I want to see, how she will help you clear out your so-called grievances, and return your so-called innocence …

I patiently said, Qing Er, the final facts will prove that I am innocent. I was innocent in the first place!

Qing Er said: I don't want to listen to this anymore, my brain is about to explode. Don't talk about this to me anymore, okay?

I said, Alright, I won't say anything. You can come back, but you'll be back tomorrow!

Qing Er said, No, I'm not going back!

I said, If you don't come back, won't you let your mother know we had a fight and worry about it?

Qing Er said: So you actually knew how to be worried. I thought you were not afraid of anything. If you have the ability, why did you throw your phone away?

I smiled. Alright, darling, good girl. I was wrong. You shouldn't have smashed the cup. Be obedient and come back, alright?

Qing Er said, No, if we don't go back, we definitely won't!

I said, I know I was wrong. I promise I won't be angry with you. I promise I won't throw the cup, okay?

Qing Er said: It's fine if you want to throw the cup, it's fine if you're angry at me, but I can endure it. As long as you don't have that vulgar incident, even if you throw the cup everyday, I'll still be happy … If you get angry at me every day, I can endure it too …"

I said, I said, the truth will be clear. I'm innocent!

Qing Er said: Alright, then I will wait to see your innocence. I will wait to see …

After saying that, Qing Er's voice became choked with sobs: Also, last night you bullied me, you protected that woman, I already married you, and you still protected her … Sob, sob …"

Qing Er's cries were not loud, as if she was afraid that her mother would hear him.

I hurriedly said, Aiya, Baby, don't let your imagination run wild. What are you thinking about? Come on, come on, go home, okay? How about, I'll pick you up tomorrow!

No, I said I'm not going back! Qing Er said: You are also not allowed to come here, if you dare come here, I will really leave! I will make it so that you will never find me again!

Alright, alright, I'm not going! I said quickly, How long are you going to stay with your mother?

You don't need to worry about how long I want to live here. Qing Er's voice had yet to fade, yet it still carried resentment and sadness. "I want to live in peace for a few days, and I want to calm myself down and think about it.

I said, It seems that you're determined to not believe me. It seems that you're really angry at me. After so many years, I've never seen you so unyielding before ….

I said that from the bottom of my heart, ever since I met Qing Er, Qing Er had never been this angry and unyielding before me. I never thought that the little lamb of the past would suddenly have such angles and corners, causing me to be greatly surprised.

Qing Er did not speak, the phone was silent, only her soft sobbing could be heard.

I sighed, "Alright, Qing Er, I will not disturb you for now. You should stay at your mother's house to accompany your parents. Before the new year, I will go and pick you up.

Qing Er still did not speak.

I sighed heavily and hung up.

I stood up and gloomily looked out the window at the setting sun. It was a short winter day, and before five o'clock the sun had gone down. The weather was dark, the wind rustling through the depressing branches, the air heavy and cold. After a while, snow began to fall outside the window and it started to snow again.

It's almost time to get off work. I should go home, but there's no one at home, Qing Er is gone. I stood in front of the window and watched the snowflakes in the sky grow larger and larger. I suddenly felt very lonely and helpless, as well as depressed loneliness and boredom.

I stood for a moment, looking at the time, then went back to my seat and stared at the phone on my desk.

After a moment's hesitation, I picked up the phone and dialed.

Hello, Liu Yue's gentle and elegant voice sounded from the phone: Who is this?

It's me! I whispered.

Oh … You, Liu Yue's voice became lively, What's wrong? Finished? After work? Isn't it time to go home? "

Mm … It's snowing outside … " I said incongruously.

Mm … Yes, it's snowing outside … Liu Yue did not continue to ask me what I had just said, and said: The snowflakes are so big, it's getting bigger and bigger... What? She touched the scenery and was in love?"

I forced a smile on the phone. What are you talking about? Why are you so emotional? Are you done?

Ugh … This... Hmm … Finished! Haha … Liu Yue laughed: What's wrong? Any instructions?

No, how would I dare to instruct you! I replied, I'm really bored right now …. Nothing much, I just want to talk to you, this... Do you have anything to do after work? "

I'm fine, what's the matter? Liu Yue said.

I... I want to treat you to a meal! No, I said.

Treat me to a meal? Liu Yue's tone was a little surprised. What? Why don't you go home? Xiao Xu is waiting for you at home, quickly go home, it's getting late …

I'm bored when I go home and cook by myself, I said. Xiao Xu is on winter vacation, so I'm going back to my parents' house today!

Oh … He went back to his parents' home? Liu Yue said: What's wrong? Did you have a fight last night? What news did Xiao Xu hear?

No, she just missed her mother and came home during the holidays. This has nothing to do with it! I said quickly.

I don't want Liu Yue to know about the quarrel between us, and even more so, I don't want him to know that Qing Er left home in anger due to the argument.

Oh … Really? Liu Yue said.

It's true! No, I said.

What a coincidence! Something happened yesterday and she left today. Did she find out about this last night? Liu Yue said.

No! I will not admit it.

I called you last night to inform you that you didn't get into any trouble, did you? Liu Yue said again.

Haha … I feigned a relaxed smile. What are you so nervous for? Why are you so sensitive? Give me a call. What can happen to you?

Liu Yue seemed to have been confused by me, and said: Oh … That's good … Director Jiang, what kind of meal do you want to treat me to?

I said, Whatever you want to eat, I'll treat you to it!

Oh, you too … smiled as he said, It's snowing heavily today, I think messing with little fat sheep must be very comfortable!

Alright, alright then. Let's go eat the fat sheep! No, I said.

Okay, how about I take a taxi to pick you up? Liu Yue said.

Don't you have a car? No, I said.

A private car is for work. How can a private car be used? Liu Yue pretended to be serious, and then laughed: Pilot is also hard, it's time to get off work. It's time to go home, my wife and children have hot meals at the brick bed, how can you keep troubling me …

Mm … Then I'll pick you up, I'll go on the way! No, I said.

Alright, but I still have two tails to eat together. Yesterday, I promised that we would eat hotpot together tonight … Liu Yue said.

I heard and knew that Liu Yue was talking about Xiao Hong and Ni Ni. "Alright, then I'll go get them first.

Okay, then I will inform Xiao Hong to bring Ni Ni to my doorstep to wait for you! Liu Yue said.

Alright, I'll be leaving now! After saying that, I went downstairs to get a taxi and went straight to Liu Yue's house. Xiao Hong coincidentally brought Ni Ni to the door and got in the car.

CHAPTER 402 - I DIDN'T KISS ENOUGH

Ni Ni saw that I was extremely hot and threw herself into my arms to hug me and kiss me. She was so happy that she jumped up and down, causing Xiao Hong to laugh non-stop.

When he arrived at the entrance of the Municipal committees, Liu Yue was standing by the side of the road amidst the flying snow. Then, the group went straight to Little Fatty Yang Hot Pot City and got a private room. They ordered some meat dishes and started washing them.

I suddenly felt the urge to drink, just when I was about to ask the waiter for more wine, Liu Yue stopped me and looked at Xiao Hong: Xiao Hong, did you bring the thing?

Yes! As Xiao Hong spoke, she took out 2 small bottles of Erguotou from her bag and said happily, There are still 10 bottles at home. I've brought 8 bottles. Is that enough?

Liu Yue was amused: So much is enough, one bottle for each person is enough, what's the use of so much?

I looked at Liu Yue: Why are you making Erguotou in your house?

Liu Yue laughed: This is the Red Star Erguotou that Corydalis came to visit when we were living here. They specially brought it from Beijing and left it there after drinking it!

When I heard this, I felt sour in my heart. I'm really f * * king shameless. Why are you asking this? You're asking for trouble.

I felt a little stuffy and said, I don't want to drink the second pot head. I want to drink the old wine. Waiter, give me the old wine!

Liu Yue was startled. What's wrong? I specifically asked Xiao Hong to bring you something to drink. Since you brought all the wine, and you also want to drink old wine, no way! Waiter, don't serve the wine, let's drink this! With that, Liu Yue opened two bottles of Erguotou and passed one bottle to me: You're petty, I know what you're thinking now, do not be like this, come, drink from the bottle without a cup!

The expression in my eyes when I looked at Liu Yue was in a daze, the corners of Liu Yue's mouth slightly curled up, as if she was blaming me. I didn't say anything else. I took a bottle of Erguotou and drank from it.

Liu Yue took a sip from the bottle, and then said to me: Tonight, I will not drink too much, just this small bottle, two taels is enough, do you hear me?

Mm … I nodded.

When Xiao Xu isn't at home, you need to learn to take care of yourself. If you drink too much at night, no one will ask and you won't even get to drink water, Liu Yue said, "Also, look at your mood these past two days. It's good to drink less since it's been a while since you've been in a bad mood.

Haha … I gave a dry laugh and took another sip from the bottle.

Liu Yue scooped up some food for me: Don't keep drinking and not eat, come and eat!

Mommy is biased, she's not willing to fish for my big brother! Ni Ni protested on the side.

Alright, darling boy, I'll scoop it up for you too! Liu Yue laughed as he helped Ni Ni get some food.

Big brother, where's big sister? Ni Ni looked at me and asked, Big sister, why don't you go back and eat with us?

Big Sis, I said as I ate. Big Sis went back to her mother's house to see her!

Alright, alright — — Ni Ni suddenly clapped her hands and shouted, Big sister, you better go to her mother's house and don't come back …

Why? Don't you like big sister? I stared at Ni Ni. Big sister loves you so much and loves you so much, if she knew that you don't want her back, she would be angry!

Ni Ni rubbed her nose and pouted, I … I like big sister. I like to play alone with big sister. I don't like big sister and big brother playing with me together …"

Why? Everyone looked at Ni Ni.

Because … Ni Ni put his finger in his mouth: Because … I don't like big sister and big brother being together, I like big brother being together with my mother, I like big brother being my little father … After saying that, Ni Ni laughed out loud, looking very pleased with himself.

and I stared blankly for a moment before Xiao Hong laughed. She bent down and covered her stomach as she laid on the table, and Liu Yue lightly patted Ni Ni's face with her hands as her expression turned serious, Ni Ni, don't speak nonsense anymore. If you keep up the nonsense, Mom won't hug you to sleep, and I won't tell you a story anymore … After she finished speaking, Liu Yue's expression was very unsettled, and started turning slightly red.

I coughed dryly and lowered my head to eat.

Seeing that Liu Yue's face became serious, Ni Ni did not dare say anymore and continued to eat.

The atmosphere at the table was awkward for a moment as everyone ate in silence.

I raised my head and looked at everyone. I looked at Xiao Hong and said, Xiao Hong, that down jacket you're wearing is really pretty, it's not cheap at all. Did you, Liu Jie, buy it for you?

Xiao Hong said: That's right, Liu Jie brought me to the mall to buy it the day before yesterday. There are a few hundred of them, they are very expensive, hehe … Initially, I didn't want Liu Jie to spend money, so I wanted to buy it myself. But Liu Jie insisted on buying it for me …

Liu Yue laughed and said: Little girl, your salary isn't that high, how can I let you pay for yourself, and buy clothes, hehe.

Xiao Hong said, Haha... Liu Jie, you don't know, I can buy things without paying. I have a lot of things that I can buy without spending any money —

Cough cough — — I didn't expect Xiao Hong to suddenly say this and immediately coughed, suppressing Xiao Hong's words. Xiao Hong also suddenly realized that her secret was exposed as she was overjoyed. She quickly shut her mouth and lowered her head to eat.

A coupon? Do you have a coupon? Still a lot? Liu Yue was a little doubtful but at the same time, she was a little surprised. She looked at Xiao Hong, Hehe … Where did you get it? How many are there?"

Ugh … Ugh … No, not many... Xiao Hong quickly waved her hand, Liu Jie, I just said that I wanted to play …

Liu Yue did not look at Xiao Hong and instead looked at me. "What did you have a cold for just now?

I knew that I couldn't hide the truth from Liu Yue, so Xiao Hong showed up, but how could Liu Yue not see that it was related to me, so I said, "Hehe … Wang Qiaoling had a lot of vouchers in her hands, but due to her feelings for Xiao Hong, they ended the year with me. When I coincidentally met me that day, I gave eight of them to you, which was worth 4000 yuan, and entrusted me to Xiao Hong. I gave them to her, but was afraid that you wouldn't be happy if you found out about them.

Liu Yue looked at me and thoughtfully nodded, Oh … Oh, so it's like that, that Wang Qiaoling is really not bad, the old boss is even more generous than me, the new owner. You, why do you think so highly of me, why would I be unhappy, if I know, you really flatten me too much, if I knew, I would only be happy … Liu Yue looked at me skeptically as she spoke.

Mm … You're right, I was wrong about this, I was wrong! " I said quickly.

Liu Yue looked at me without speaking for a long time.

I didn't dare to raise my head to look at Liu Yue as I was busy eating my food. I was afraid that Liu Yue would look into my eyes and see that I was lying.

After a while, I heard Liu Yue laugh lightly and continued to eat.

After dinner, I will send Liu Yue and the others off first. Liu Yue and I stood at the entrance of the restaurant, Liu Yue looked at me and said: Xiao Xu is not at home, so you have to take care of yourself, so don't ignore what I said, remember this well, eat and sleep well, work as usual, win over the rumors. The best way to destroy the rumors is to be magnanimous. Before there is conclusive evidence, I will do my best to drag this matter on. I will not fulfill the wishes of those two. I will not cripple your martial arts just because of this …"

Looking at Liu Yue's bright eyes and determined expression, I suddenly wanted to reach out and hug her. However, I knew that it was impossible, so I gathered up my courage and stroked the snow on her hair and softly said: I'll remember what you said, so don't work too hard for this. Life is your fate, no matter if you want or not, it's fate. If I'm destined to be able to escape this calamity, then it'll all depend on fate …

When I reached out to brush away the snow on top of Liu Yue's head, Liu Yue did not move. After I brushed off the snow, Liu Yue opened her eyes and smiled at me: "I can see that your fate isn't so bad. In the past year, all of your bad luck has been poured out, and this is 1996, a new year, a new beginning. I believe that you will have a new harvest and start off, you won't be so unfortunate all the time.

I laughed. Heh heh … Bless me for your blessings, O Almighty God, and thank God! "

Liu Yue pursed her lips and laughed, she then extended her hand and patted the snow on my body: Alright, let's go, you should return home quickly as well!

Big brother, it's snowing so heavily, please don't go home, just come live at my house, Ni Ni suddenly ran over and pulled my hand, made me squat down, and whispered into my ear, My bed is really big, big brother can sleep on my mom's bed while I sleep between mom and big brother, how nice is that — — "

I laughed bitterly in my heart, my dear Ni Ni, it's not like I haven't slept on your bed before!

I patted Ni Ni's face and laughed: "Big brother is going home. Big brother has his own home.

Ni Ni reluctantly bade farewell to me and followed Liu Yue and Xiao Hong to take a taxi to leave.

I stood in the snow, lonely and hesitant in the snow, walking slowly.

I didn't go home, but I found myself walking back to the single dorm near the newspaper. I found another bottle of white wine in the room. I took off my cotton clothes, got into bed, took a few big gulps of white wine, went in half a bottle more, and then lay down on the bed, covered myself with the blanket, and slept soundly.

In my sleep, I was filled with endless sorrow and sorrow. I felt that only the anesthetic of alcohol could make me forget my sorrow and my loneliness in my numbness.

On a cold night, my cold heart was having a cold dream, in which there was no color, no light, no heat, no warmth, no light, the whole world of dark, cold, silent gray, in which I plodded feebly and painstakingly, each footprint so labored and heavy that I could barely see a trace of light ahead, hear no sound around me, feel no warmth around me …

I feel as if I have been abandoned by this world, the whole world is far away from me, they all laugh at me, they all mock me, I am facing all of this arrogantly, not taming it, although I am still standing, but I am very tired, very tired …

Just as I was about to collapse, fall, give up, and be discouraged, a warm voice resounded in my ears, "A Feng, don't collapse. Stand up straight, you're a man, you're the bravest man in my heart.

CHAPTER 403 - NOURISH ME

This voice lingered in my ears and flowed in my heart, nourishing my dry and anxious heart. It was like the dawn before dawn, letting me see the light in the endless night. My whole body was filled with power, the power that came from the depths of my heart.

I don't know how much time passed before I woke up, feeling the smoke in my throat, unable to bear the lack of water in the dormitory. I got up, intending to go to the office and drink some water.

Looking at the time, it was already 11am.

On the way to the newspaper office, the snow on the ground was already very thick. As they walked, the sounds of ka ka ka could be heard. The snow silently fell. Right at that moment, my BB machine suddenly rang. I turned it on and saw that it was Qing Er's call: You're not going home, you're fooling around with another woman!

My head was spinning, I quickly took out Da Geda, turned on the phone, and prepared to call Qing Er's mother back home.

Before he could dial the number, another call came in, it was from Liu Yue. "You're not going home! It's such a cold day and such a big snow is about to freeze to death.

I was stunned again. With Da Geda in hand, I didn't know who to call first.

The snows of the winter nights were gently and mercilessly falling on my head, my neck, and my body. They were so numerous and silent that I could hear the sound of snow falling from my ears. I stood still in the snow, looking down at the pager, holding Da Geda in one hand, like a dead tree in a snow-white world.

I finally decided to call Liu Yue back.

I dialed Liu Yue's home number. Hello? What happened?

First, she must have called home countless of times, and no one answered her at home. Then, she called Liu Yue again, and asked if she had seen me, and only after Liu Yue told her that I was not at her place did she send me a message. With a heavy tone of reprimand to the customers, she asked me where I was. But I have no idea how Qing Er asked and how Liu Yue replied.

In these past two days, Qing Er had been giving me another wave of chilliness. Although it wasn't as bone-piercing as this Yan Dong, it still made my heart feel a bit cold, I suddenly felt that Qing Er was a completely different person. The current Qing Er doesn't seem to be the Qing Er that I have always been, but I felt that I was suddenly a little unfamiliar with her. Did women go crazy when their men cheated? Or is this the instinctive physical defense and attack of a woman? If Qing Er really believed that I cheated after my marriage, her actions would be too excessive right now. Was she defending her dignity and happiness? Or did this become the fuse that ignited the usual accumulation of gunpowder? This gunpowder is obviously related to Liu Yue and me.

Where are you? Liu Yue's voice seemed to be very anxious, "It's snow outside and it's cold, why didn't you listen to me and go home?

I didn't go home. It was snowing heavily on the road, so it wasn't easy to get a taxi on the road. Besides, it's not safe to taxi on the road. So I decided to stay in the house I rented near the newspaper! I said, What is it? What happened?

Xiao Xu is looking for you everywhere, even her phone is calling me … Liu Yue's voice was a little uneasy, I didn't dare to let Xiao Xu know that I knew she was coming home, and I still pretended to be deaf and mute to ask where Xiao Xu is. She told me she was at her parents' house and she said no one would pick up the phone, and she asked if I'd seen you... I also didn't dare say anything about you eating with us. I said that I didn't see you, then told Xiao Xu not to worry, I'll help her look … Hey — you're in a foul mood in this kind of weather... I was shocked, it's fine now, I just need to know where you are, hurry up and give Xiao Xu a call, give a good explanation, she doesn't know how anxious she is right now."

My heart sank as I said, Yeah … I got it. I'm on my way to the office. I'm on my way to the office for a drink …

Oh … That's good, go ahead and be careful on the way, Liu Yue said: I think Xiao Xu must have also called you.

Mm … You just called me … I said, I'll call her back! Just as he was speaking, the pager rang again. I looked and it was still Qing Er's: There's no one in my family. You're planning on breaking the record, aren't you?"

Liu Yue seemed to have heard the beeper from the phone, and said: Did Xiao Xu come again? Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. Hurry up and go back to your room. I'm sleeping …"

With that, Liu Yue hung up.

As I walked towards my office, I dialed Qing Er's home number. At the beginning, I didn't dial, but it was already busy. After a few calls, it connected.

I will speak first: Qing Er, it's me!

Where did you go? Where is it? Qing Er's angry voice came out from the phone.

I didn't go anywhere. I drank at night. After dinner, the roads were slippery in the snow. It wasn't easy to walk, so I stayed at the dormitory near the newspaper office … When I woke up, I was so thirsty that I got up to go to the office and drink some water. When I saw you calling me, I replied … I said with a smile, Heh heh … I couldn't get through to you just now, it was always busy. Were you dialing me when I dialled you? What a coincidence!"

Is that so? Qing Er's voice was still ice-cold. What a coincidence, were you trying to call me just now?

Yes, yes! I said quickly.

Hmph … You're lying … Qing Er's voice was somewhat angry: Not only did I call you, I started to turn off my phone, then when my phone was busy, I called another person's home phone, and at the same time it was busy, what a coincidence, when I called that person, I immediately hung up, and then, your phone also immediately rang, what coincidence do you think, is there anything more coincidental than this?

I was a little regretful that I didn't call Liu Yue first. The leak in my phone was too big, and I had to expend a lot of effort to explain it, so I might not be able to explain it clearly.

Mm … This … "Qing Er, I won't hide this from you. At the same time I received your message, I also received Liu Yue's message, so I gave her a reply. She said that you were looking for me, and I'll immediately call you back.

Is that so? Qing Er's voice became longer: Are you simply replying to her, this will take at least 5 minutes, I started with your phone being busy, and spoke a lot of things in the middle of the night, do you have so much to say? Pity I'm here alone waiting for you to not call me back …" As she said that, Qing Er's voice became choked with sobs, and it carried an obvious feeling of being wronged and crying.

Qing Er, don't say that, I panicked. She just told me about the situation with your phone call, then asked me why I didn't go back, and where I was, then urgently urged me to call you back. She was afraid that you would be anxious … We really don't have anything else to say …

What exactly did you say? How would I know? In any case, what you say is what you said and whether it's true or false, no one will tell me. Qing Er's voice became hard again, Tell me the truth, where exactly are you?

I was really sleeping in the dorm and when I woke up from my thirst, I came to the office to drink some water! I said, It's snowing outside. I'm going up the stairs. I'm only a few steps away from the office!

Just as I finished speaking, Qing Er suddenly hung up.

I opened the door of the office, and just as I turned on the light, before I could pour any water, the phone on the desk rang. I quickly picked up the microphone, and sure enough, it was Qing Er.

I said, I'm not lying to you. What I said was true. I'm in my office right now!

Qing Er's voice sounded completely expressionless, Got it … For now, don't say anything, just pour some water and drink it …"

Well — I promised to put down the receiver, but I didn't die. I poured myself a large glass of warm water, took a long gulp, and then picked up the receiver again. Well, at last I'm not so thirsty, alas — I'm awake in the middle of the night and I don't have any water to drink. It's so painful …

You … Qing Er's voice seemed to be filled with pity, as she said in a voice that was both angry and painful, You … You …"

I smiled. What is it? Qing Er, what about me?

The slightest care and concern that Qing Er had for me made me feel optimistic, that Qing Er's attitude towards me was improving.

However, Qing Er did not speak again, and her soft sobbing voice came out from the phone.

I didn't know what to say, but I suddenly felt like I had really become a prostitute. I had really cheated, and was waiting for Qing Er's retort.

Suddenly, I couldn't figure out if Qing Er was calling me late at night to find out if she was concerned about me or was looking for me!

Qing Er was quiet for a long time, before her voice transmitted back to him a moment later, and became light again: Alright, it's fine now. Finish drinking, and sleep in the office. I need to rest, good night …" Then, without waiting for my reply, she hung up the phone.

I was stunned for a long time as I held the microphone. I didn't know how much Qing Er would believe in what I had said tonight, but I felt that Qing Er didn't really believe what I had said anymore. Not only was the misunderstanding not resolved, it seemed to be getting deeper.

Later that night, instead of going back to the bachelor dorm, I smoked in my office until dawn, washed my face, and went to work.

Daybreak. The snow had stopped. After work, the first thing the unit did was to sweep the snow collectively. The snow on the road outside the courtyard was divided into different parts of the office. The departments and offices were responsible for clearing the snow in the responsible area. Chen Jing and I will bring along a few reporters from Department of Public Information to clear the snow. Department of Public Information of the Department of Public Information looked at me strangely these two days, not to mention the other colleagues of the newspaper. When I approached them, they all smiled at me, then left, and then came back together and muttered.

I was in no mood to pay attention to them. He heard the laughter of the surrounding people. A few people had built a huge snowman, the Colleagues from the newspaper were watching and laughing, and Liu Fei was beside them.

Director Liu, look at our pile of snowmen, do they look good? The few girls from the newspaper office talked to Liu Fei.

It's good, it's really good! Liu Fei said as he looked in my direction.

Ahh — Snowman, Snowman, you are so beautiful, so pure, so flawless, such a pity, you will melt very soon … A colleague exclaimed.

CHAPTER 404 - LIU FEI WAS REFERRING TO A SCHOLAR WHO WAS SCOLDING OTHERS …

Liu Fei said: What is there to feel pity about, this snowman, looks very white and pure, but, look carefully, in this snow, there is a lot of dust, very dirty. Once it turns into a pool of sewage, it will flow into the smelly ditch. It's just like humans. Some people look very bright, but in fact, their stomachs are so dirty that they can't even see them. The others couldn't even imagine that such a person would end up like this snowman, in my opinion, they would also end up in the stinky ditch …

When I heard it, I knew that Liu Fei was pointing at me.

When Liu Fei was speaking, his face would occasionally turn towards my direction, and the surrounding people seemed to understand what Liu Fei was referring to. They didn't want Liu Fei to offend me, nor did they want to go against Liu Fei, so they immediately dispersed.

Chen Jing, who was sweeping the snow, understood the meaning behind Liu Fei's words. She straightened up and dragged her broom with him to's place.

My voice was low and stern, causing Chen Jing to be stunned for a moment. She then stood up, threw her broom on the floor and returned to her office.

I raised my head to look at Liu Fei, and saw his smiling face: Director Jiang, thank you for the hard work, take it easy, don't be tired …

I smiled as if nothing had happened: Thank you Director Liu for your concern, I will! Don't worry, I'll take it easy …"

Liu Fei laughed, seeing that the surrounding people had left, he felt bored.

I will remember Liu Yue's words. Don't be rash, I know what Liu Fei's intentions are.

After finishing all the work, Chen Jing returned to her office and said to me, You sure can endure this. This person has already ridden on top of your head and pooped on your sh * t, yet you're still unmoved … Do you know what Colleagues has been saying these past few days …

Alright, shut up! I looked at Chen Jing: I don't care about what they say, you just have a little bit of brains, and that's why Liu Fei said that just now, it is clear that he is looking for trouble in front of everyone, making me even uglier. If I had met Liu Fei at that time and happened to fall into his trap, it would have made my matter even more embarrassing in front of everyone, but Liu Fei did not mention his surname, what right do you have to cause trouble in front of everyone? Didn't this just happen to be happening to him? Liu Fei really wants my fire to burn more and more, and for the newspaper to cause such a huge commotion because of me …

Chen Jing listened and nodded, Oh. So that's how it is … Thank goodness you stopped me. Otherwise, I really would have gone over and had a fight with him. Wouldn't that be perfect for him …"

Mm … Yes! I said, When the time comes, not only will my reputation be ruined, but you as well. In the eyes of others, I am a person who does not live a proper life. If you jump out and do this for me, what would others think of you?

Humph! Righteousness is not afraid of slanting shadows. I am not afraid! Chen Jing forced herself to open her mouth, and the expression on her face clearly showed that she agreed with what I said, and then, he looked at me. I told you not to get angry... What are you going to do about this? I … I thought about it. I don't think you can do this kind of thing. I don't believe you can do prostitution. How could you do such a dirty thing? But, but … You have to find evidence …

Chen Jing's words made a trace of warmth in my heart. Until now, there have been two people who believed that I was innocent: one was Liu Yue, and the other was Chen Jing. I couldn't help but feel regret and grief. If only Qing Er also believed him, how good would that be!

I heard that Liu Jie was in charge of investigating this matter. Liu Jie has so many connections, so much intelligence, Liu Jie should hurry up and think of a way to wash off this matter, Chen Jing said. I'm just afraid that things might not end well …

I looked at Chen Jing: Chen Jing, thank you for trusting me, thank you … True... As for how the matter is handled and what the final conclusion is, I am unwilling to think too much about it …"

It looks like I am really going to have to carry the burden of this client's reputation and walk the road in the future. Even if I refuse to admit it, even if Liu Yue tries his best to not let me be expelled, how can I possibly survive in a newspaper? Not just the newspapers, but this circle, those I am familiar with, those who are familiar with me, are all unable to stay in this circle anymore! Moreover, it was still unknown what Qing Er's intentions were.

On one hand, there were black and white characters in the Director Ji's notebook, black and white. On the other hand, I refused to admit it at all, but I could not get out any evidence, and on the other hand, Zhang Buzhang kept urging me to finish this quickly, making the conflict seem even more complicated and acute. Liu Yue's expression and spirit seemed to become more and more fatigued. After finishing her daily investigation, she would not be in her office anymore and immediately took her car and left, though it was unknown where she went. Liu Fei was in high spirits, as if hoping that even if this matter didn't end, delaying it like this would be great as well. On the other hand, Mei Ling's attitude was hard to fathom. She would say whether or not it was alright to end it like this, and then say that she would leave it at that, and drag this on … As for government departments, they would be fine if they kept dragging things out!

These days, I go to work during the day and go home in the evening. I stay at home and I don't go anywhere. Qing Er would call me every night at around 10 o'clock, and ask me if I had any time to eat or sleep. After that, he hung up, not giving me the chance to speak at all.

I've thought it through, no matter how I've come to a conclusion, I won't disobey my will and admit it. I've already prepared for the worst, if I were to be expelled, of course I wouldn't go home and farm. Of course, such an outcome was very much on my mind. I had always had a strong feeling about government and politics.

In the blink of an eye it's Friday, so tomorrow is Saturday. It's the day Liu Yue and I will be going to Shihu Village to deliver the New Year gifts to the villagers, and based on Liu Yue's opinion, I have already made arrangements for the next few days. I will send the New Year gifts on Saturday and have the other people and cars come back. When I thought about how Qing Er had agreed to participate in the event, I was just worried that Qing Er would be suspicious of him when she saw him. This saved me the trouble of going back home.

In the morning, I was reading a newspaper in Office. Just then, the phone on the table rang, Chen Jing picked it up, and then handed the microphone to me: It's for you!

I received it. It was from the Ministry of Propaganda: Director Jiang has informed you that he wants you to come to his small meeting room immediately. There's something important!

I was a little surprised. In the past, whenever I was investigated, either Liu Yue or Liu Fei would inform me. Why did it become Chief of Staff this time? Moreover, from Chief of Staff's tone, I can hear that she has very serious and important things to say. At a time like this, what other important things can she be seeking me for other than this? These days, I didn't participate in any of the major interviews or events. I focused on wiping my ass, but I still couldn't wipe it clean. Liu Yue told Chief of Staff to notify me, why didn't she tell me about it in advance?

I tidied up the desk in a flurry of thoughts as I told Chen Jing, I'm going to the Ministry!

Chen Jing put down the thing in her hand, raised her head and looked at me: Oh … Is it still about that? I heard that the person on the phone seems to be the Ministry's Chief of Staff.

Mm … I nodded, Yes, Chief of Staff. As for what it is, I don't know either!

Chen Jing nodded her head: Go ahead, I will do the work in the office, do not be too distracted, the most important thing now is to settle your own business!

Indeed, in these few days, Chen Jing took over the majority of Department of Public Information's work, and helped me shoulder a lot of worries. I looked at Chen Jing with gratitude. You've worked hard these past few days!

Chen Jing glanced at me and sighed: "What are you talking about? Sigh — I can't help you with this kind of thing, but I believe that Liu Jie will definitely be able to help you. She is in charge of the disciplinary committee and also the head of the investigation team.

I smiled bitterly, Liu Yue was not a god, and such a thing, who could do anything about it? Looking at Liu Yue's mental state in the past few days, I knew that she had nothing to do, and my heart was filled with anxiety, although she still had an optimistic and calm expression in front of me, but, her haggard appearance could not hide anything from me.

I am deeply moved by Liu Yue's care and concern for me. Even if I am done in with this matter, with Liu Yue as such, I will accept it as it is worth it!

Don't laugh bitterly, don't be discouraged, Chen Jing said: What I said was true. Even though Liu Jie is an ordinary woman, her intelligence and wisdom is far superior to ordinary women, and even many men can't compare to her. It's just that Liu Jie doesn't want to win the favor of others, doesn't want to go against his principles, and is too kind as well, which is why he has been plotted against so many times. This time, I firmly believe that Liu Jie will definitely have a way …

Although Chen Jing was careless, but she was very accurate in her judgement. Her evaluation of Liu Yue was just right with my idea, I completely agreed with her, but I never thought that Liu Yue would come to the newspaper to be the head of something. Ma Shuji was just doing it happily, how could I give Liu Yue the chance? I also treated Chen Jing's last words as a comforting words to me, so I didn't dare hold too much hope, because even I, the person involved is unable to think of any other way, so what kind of high trump card does Liu Yue have? However, I didn't want to give Chen Jing too much face, so I nodded. Hopefully, I'll use your auspicious words …

Chen Jing said, Go, or maybe, there will be more flowers hidden in the shadows at this place …

I directly went downstairs to Ministry of Propaganda's small conference room.

Mei Ling and I had almost entered the small meeting room, Liu Yue had not come yet.

Ministry of Propaganda was in the middle of organizing the conference room, opening the TV cabinet in the corner, and debugging the television, including the video recorder below.

Minister Liu is in Zhang Buzhang's office, please wait a moment! Chief of Staff looked at me with a smile as he spoke. He did not say anything else and went out.

Mei Ling and Liu Fei were still seated facing the door, and there was an empty seat in between for Liu Yue. I was still sitting facing them, just like I did on that day.

Liu Fei's expression was still full of interest, as he easily flipped and flipped the old newspaper, as if I would fall down this time and would never be able to stand up again. Mei Ling, on the other hand, didn't seem to care at all. She continued to hold onto Da Geda's phone and occasionally glanced at me.

CHAPTER 405 - LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AT THE SKY

I sat there in silence, looking out the window at the sky.

After about 20 minutes, Liu Yue hurried in and sat at her seat.

I looked at Liu Yue and saw that she looked good today. The corner of my mouth was tightly curled up, but I couldn't hide the hint of a smile from my face.

Mei Ling stopped talking on the phone and sat down. She opened her notebook and prepared to record everything.

Liu Yue began to speak, Everyone, we invited everyone here today because we wanted to invite everyone to watch a video …

Saying that, Liu Yue took out a videotape from her bag, walked to the television cabinet at the corner and opened up the TV and video recorder.

Mei Ling, Liu Fei and even I were a little confused, and stared at the screen.

I was stunned when it started playing, and it turned out to be about the day I was in the room with that lady. Although it was a little dark, I could clearly see that it was me and that lady. At first I was wearing a bathrobe, and that lady gave me a massage, then I sat up and talked to that lady on the sofa. The video was soundless, and on the lower right corner of the screen, it showed that there was a time. It was exactly the same as what Director Ji said.

Mei Ling and Liu Fei were both stunned, staring straight at the screen.

As I watched, I wondered how it had come about. Did someone videotape me the other day when I was with that lady? Could it be that the room had Ann's hidden video camera? As I thought about this, I broke out in a cold sweat. This video was enough to prove that I was innocent. How did Liu Yue get hold of this? Could it be that the secret that Liu Yue had told him about the inn was this? Since it was a top secret, the hotel would not dare to not leak it out. How did Liu Yue get hold of it? I've read in the newspapers that there are places where hotels or bathing centers have hidden cameras installed to monitor the situation in the rooms, but that's extremely confidential, and only a few people in the hotel know about it, because they know what the consequences will be if it gets out.

However, the current recording was undoubtedly made by the hotel itself. Could it be that Liu Yue went to the hotel to look for the chairman of the board for this? How could the chairman agree to provide Liu Yue with such a thing? Unless the chairman had received a reasonable amount of benefits.

I let my imagination run wild.

The tape was finished, and it lasted forty minutes. After reading everything, no one said a word. Liu Fei's expression became very calm, as if he was still very happy. He looked at me and secretly gave me a thumbs up. Mei Ling frowned, he looked at Liu Yue, and did not make a sound.

Liu Yue went over to close the television and video recorder, took out the video tape, and put it in her own bag. Then, she came back and sat down, saying, Everyone, you all finished watching this video, I believe I don't need to say anymore. The background of the video was the room at Skysea Hotel. If anyone had any doubts, they could verify it on the spot … Even if you include the authenticity of this video, you can get an expert to verify it …"

Liu Yue's words were undoubtedly directed towards Liu Fei and Mei Ling. Liu Fei rolled her eyes and said: Ahhh — That's great, I've been looking forward to the moon and stars, and finally looked forward to this thing. This video was really timely, I have no doubts about the authenticity of this video, I believe that Director Jiang is innocent, I believe that whatever Director Jiang says is true …

Liu Fei turned the steering wheel very quickly, and even rushed in front of Mei Ling to give him a favor. He looked at me with a big smile: "Director Jiang, I admire you.

I smiled at Liu Fei, but there was still an unsolvable mystery revolving in my mind.

Mei Ling started to speak: Minister Liu, where did you get this tape?

Liu Yue said: Just now, I was already in Zhang Buzhang's office, and had shown this tape to Zhang Buzhang, and Zhang Buzhang had instructed us to immediately end the investigation and take out the results of the investigation. As for how this tape came about, I did not tell him, and I told Zhang Buzhang that the source of this is strictly confidential.

Liu Fei quickly said: As long as the video is real, it doesn't matter how it comes to be. We won't be able to see the results, haha …

However, Mei Ling refused to give up, and appeared to be somewhat worried. She looked at Liu Yue: Minister Liu, I am also a member of the investigation team, is the origin of this video so important? Do you not believe us?

Mei Ling's tone was overbearing as she looked at Liu Yue.

Liu Yue smiled slightly, she thought for a while, then continued: Alright, since President May has said so, then I will say it out loud. This videotape was received this morning and sent over by mail. The sender didn't have any signature, and the mailing address is a foreign place. That's basically the situation here, I told Zhang Buzhang the same thing … As for who sent them, and how did you get them, I think you two could go to the Public Security Bureau to report the case if you feel it's necessary, and ask the Public Security Bureau to investigate this case …"

Liu Fei immediately said, Hehe … Minister Liu sure knows how to joke, is there a need to? We are all very happy to let the Director Jiang recover its reputation, why are we investigating who did it? In any case, the truth of the matter is already very clear!

From Liu Yue's expression and words, Liu Fei already knew Zhang Buzhang's stand on this matter, she knew that she could no longer obstruct or add to the chaos, so she simply took the initiative to go with the flow, and became a good person. Her intentions were clear to me. I think Liu Yue will definitely know as well.

However, Mei Ling seemed to not understand the situation at all, as if she was very concerned about the source of this video, he continued to look at Liu Yue: Minister Liu, what kind of place is this place that you are talking about?

The provincial capital! Liu Yue answered without hesitation.

Oh … Mei Ling nodded and looked at Liu Yue blankly, as if she could read something from her expression.

Just then, Liu Yue's Da Geda rang. Liu Yue picked up the phone and went out to the In the corridor to answer the call.

Looking at Mei Ling's nervous and anxious expression, I suddenly thought of something. I picked up my pen and wrote a line of words on a piece of paper, tore off the paper, wadded it into a ball, and stood up.

When I went out to pass by Liu Yue, I quickly stuffed the paper ball into her hands. After that, I went to the bathroom and smoked a cigarette there before returning to the meeting room.

When I returned, Liu Yue had already finished her call and the three of them were waiting for me.

Liu Yue smiled and looked at me. In her eyes, there was an expression of approval. I knew that Liu Yue must have seen the contents of the paper slip. I was a
