"Okay, then I'll drink less."
After the food was served, Bao Desheng held up a full cup (two or two cups) and said, "Xiao Zeng, come on, let's do it."
"Instructor Bao, I can't do it," Zeng Yanan said nervously.
Only then did Bao Desheng realize that the other party was a girl, not a brother from the army. He was used to drinking with his comrades for a long time, so Bao Desheng shouted cheers as soon as he came up.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Zeng, drink slowly." Bao Desheng toasted anyway.
When Zeng Yanan saw Bao Desheng doing it, he was too embarrassed to drink slowly. In the eyes of the other party, it was a sign of disrespect. Zeng Yanan had no choice but to follow suit.
"Xiao Zeng, why did you do this?"
"Instructor Bao, can we drink the next drink slowly?" Zeng Yanan frowned and said uncomfortably.
For people who don’t like drinking, even Maotai has lost its value.
After calming down for a while, Zeng Yanan asked: "Instructor Bao, you invited me to dinner, maybe something happened, right?"
"Yes, I have something to do with you." Bao Desheng was always the first to speak, just like when he confessed to Wu Jing.
Zeng Yanan was a little disappointed, but not very disappointed, because she knew that soldiers were like this. They walked and spoke in one line, never turning around.
"There was a serious car accident near the Civil Affairs Bureau last year. Do you remember it?"
"Remember, the victim is President Pei's wife."
"Well, as far as I know, that was not an ordinary traffic accident," Bao Desheng said seriously.
"Instructor Bao, please speak softly," Zeng Yanan reminded.
Zeng Yanan continued, "There are some doubts about that case. President Pei also reported it to the bureau some time ago, but later it was dropped."
"Have you re-investigated?"
"No, Director Li said that the case has been closed. There is no need to re-investigate, which is a waste of manpower and material resources. That day she asked me to call President Pei to come to the bureau. He actually said that he had re-investigated and there was no problem. I I'm really speechless on the sidelines, these officials can turn black into white and still be so serious," Zeng Yanan sighed.
"I heard from President Pei that the driver who caused the accident was driving drunk and later died. His wife personally admitted that she hired someone to kill someone and died soon after. Later, it was found that the key person who gave his wife money at the time also died."
Zeng Yanan was shocked when he heard what Bao Desheng said.
"Originally I thought it was just some procedural issues, but I didn't expect it was really murder."
"Yes, it's murder. That's what the driver's wife Yang Lianhua and her daughter said."
"Why doesn't President Pei hand over this information to the police?"
Bao Desheng drank a glass of wine and said angrily: "The police must have a protective umbrella in this matter, otherwise they would not have been able to find out."
"I know, I'll go back and investigate quietly."
"Thank you, Xiao Zeng, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions."
"Don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter," Zeng Yanan said with an upright face.
On the weekend, Pei Dong came to Shanghai to visit Lin Xiaojie. As soon as he saw Pei Dong come in, Lin Xiaojie threw herself into his arms and said, "Why didn't you come here until now? You miss me so much."
After Chen Jian saw it, he happily avoided it.
Due to his busy work, Pei Donglai has not been to Shanghai for a long time. Now Lin Xiaojie has recovered very well. Her speech is basically close to the normal speed and her walking is still a little slow, but her amnesia has not progressed.
"Take me out to play, I'm going to die."
Pei Donglai took Lin Xiaojie to the street for dinner. After going out, Lin Xiaojie was like a bird out of its cage, very excited.
"Xiaojie, don't you come out usually?"
"I come out, but rarely. He doesn't let me stay outside for a long time. I just go for a walk in the community."
Thinking that Lin Xiaojie had no friends here and stayed at home most of the day, she was very lonely.
After dinner, Pei Donglai took Lin Xiaojie to the amusement park. Lin Xiaojie was as happy as a child.
After playing until the afternoon, Chen Jian called, "Where have you been? Why haven't you come back yet?"
"I'll take Xiaojie for a walk on the street. We'll eat out in the evening and then come back. You don't have to wait for us," Pei Donglai said.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, the two of them went back. Chen Jian, who originally wanted to be angry, saw his daughter's happy look, but only exchanged a few words before going back to the room to sleep.
Lin Xiaojie raised her mouth and made a proud expression.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Xiaojie said she was tired and wanted to sleep.
After taking a shower and entering the bedroom, Lin Xiaojie came to the living room and saw that Pei Donglai had fallen asleep on the sofa.
"Dong Lai, get up and take a shower and go to bed. Why are you falling asleep here?" Lin Xiaojie slapped Pei Donglai awake.
When Pei Donglai took a shower and entered the bedroom, Lin Xiaojie rushed over like a heat wave. Although it was still a bit cold in April in Shanghai, her body was boiling hot.
After "resting" for so long, it has already become overrun.
Pei Donglai stood motionless, feeling very conflicted in his heart. Ever since Lin Xiaojie's accident, he had promised Lin Xiaojie and himself that he would take good care of her in this life, but his body refused to obey him and he didn't feel anything at all.
Seeing that Pei Donglai didn't respond, Lin Xiaojie suddenly stood up and asked with tears in her eyes: "Don't you miss me?"
Pei Donglai was silent. He didn't know how to answer Lin Xiaojie's question.
Afterwards, Lin Xiaojie put on her clothes and went to bed, while Pei Donglai still stood there blankly.
After a long while, Lin Xiaojie said: "You go to the guest room to sleep."
Pei Donglai put on his clothes and walked out of Lin Xiaojie's room.
After Pei Donglai left, Lin Xiaojie covered her mouth and cried loudly. It was normal for a man to be rejected by a woman. If a woman was rejected by a man, it proved that the man no longer loved the woman.
Pei Donglai lay on the bed and couldn't sleep for a long time. He didn't know how to face Lin Xiaojie in the future.
After breakfast the next day, Lin Xiaojie said: "Donglai, let's go for a walk."
The two of them were silent all the way to the Wetland Park. Lin Xiaojie slowly spoke, "Donglai, tell me, what happened?"
After Pei Donglai told Lin Xiaojie everything, Lin Xiaojie smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, we are divorced. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm sorry for last night. I'll go back to Jiangcheng with you to get the divorce certificate."
"Xiaojie..." Pei Donglai suddenly became sad, not the sadness of losing a lover, but the sadness of losing a relative.
"I understand, thank you for taking care of me for so long." After saying that, Lin Xiaojie turned around and walked back.
On the way, Pei Dong came and said, "Xiaojie, you can't go to Jiangcheng now, it's dangerous."
"You have to face dangers. I don't want to delay you, and I don't want to delay myself either. Let's get together and part ways."
In the afternoon, Pei Donglai was going back. Lin Xiaojie insisted on following Pei Donglai. Chen Jian said in confusion: "Xiaojie, you can't follow Donglai back and forth to Jiangcheng."
"I've already made my decision, and you don't need to persuade me. I'll leave as soon as I'm done."
"What are you doing?"
"divorce".
