The night was dark, and the waning moon in the sky had just risen and disappeared in a blink of an eye. The street lights on several streets near the family home were bright, but they were empty with few pedestrians in sight. There was silence everywhere.
When Liu Yang walked into the yard, the window of the bedroom on the second floor was still dimly lit.
When Liu Yang approached the bed, he looked at Zhao Jingjing, who was sleeping soundly, but twisted his body, opened his hazy eyes, glanced at Liu Yang, who was standing motionless in front of him, and asked: "You're back? Hmm? … You drank, you smell so much alcohol…”
Liu Yang said a little apologetically: "Well, I met an old classmate to talk about some things and drank a little wine... You go to bed first, how about I turn off the light?"
"No need." Zhao Jingjing looked at her watch, closed her eyes and said, "It's too late. You have to go to work tomorrow. Why are you dazed..."
"You go to bed first, I'll go to sleep later..." Liu Yang said, turned around and walked out.
Liu Yang made a cup of tea and sat under the black locust tree in the yard with the cup in hand. He crossed his arms tightly and looked at the stars in the sky.
The stars in the sky are shining with dazzling light, hanging tirelessly in the sky, blinking and twinkling, as if they have not changed for ten thousand years, they are so tenacious!
And people change so quickly. Anhua, Miao Cuihong... and perhaps myself, are no longer the same as they used to be...
Behind him, there was a sound of gentle footsteps. When Liu Yang looked back, Zhao Jingjing was standing behind him with a nightgown in her hand.
"What are you doing out here? Be careful of the cold..." Seeing that she was only wearing a nightgown and hugging her two smooth calves, Liu Yang quickly stood up, took the nightgown from Zhao Jingjing's hand and put it on her. He hugged her and walked into the house: "I was planning to go back to sleep..."
"Well, go back to sleep. The smell of alcohol is gone... Besides, I'm not afraid..." Zhao Jingjing turned to look at Liu Yang and smiled sweetly.
This man was very attentive, knowing that he was pregnant with a child and did not want to smell the smell of alcohol, so he actually ran outside and sat down.
When I returned to the room, I looked at my watch and realized that it was already past twelve o'clock. Liu Yang smiled and held Zhao Jingjing in his arms, whispering softly: "Go to sleep, go to sleep, I will hold you..."
Zhao Jingjing was as obedient as a kitten, nestled in Liu Yang's arms, and fell asleep sweetly soon.
When a beam of golden sunlight shone on the big bed through the gap in the curtains, Zhao Jingjing's body was wrapped under the pink sheet, she turned slightly, and her arms changed positions on the pink sheet and rubbed a few times. , did not touch the object that should be touched, and then suddenly opened his eyes.
At this moment, Liu Yang walked in from the bedroom door with a cup of hot milk.
"Are you awake? Have a glass of milk first." Liu Yang handed the hot milk to Zhao Jingjing. Zhao Jingjing sat on the bed with her legs crossed, staring at Liu Yang with a pair of big eyes, motionless.
"Don't worry, drink it. The temperature is just right and not too hot..." Liu Yang moved the cup forward again. Zhao Jingjing then stretched out her hand to take it, took a sip, and said softly: "Thank you... are you okay?"
"I'm fine, why do you ask?" Liu Yang asked with a smile.
Zhao Jingjing stared at him and smiled: "I am your wife, and I know your every move. You had something on your mind last night..."
"Yes, yes, yes, no, no, it's all a matter of the unit..." Liu Yang smiled with a smile on his lips, stretched out his hand to pinch Zhao Jingjing's nose: "My wife is so careful, you can see it all. ?”
"Well, so I know everything about you, so don't try to hide it from me." Zhao Jingjing said as she handed the cup to Liu Yang, stretched out her white feet, and searched for slippers under the bed to get ready. bed.
"It's almost time to go to work, I have to leave first!" Liu Yang bent down and put on Zhao Jingjing's slippers.
"Well, you go to work. Remember husband, no matter what happens to you, I will support you..." Zhao Jingjing stood up, opened her arms and gave Liu Yang a hug.
After arriving at the office, I saw secretary Wang Jiankun wiping the table with a rag. Seeing Liu Yang coming in, Wang Jiankun quickly said hello with a smile.
Not long after Liu Yang sat down on the comfortable boss chair, Li Dongdong walked in: "Secretary Liu, I have something to report to you. I won't disturb your work, right?"
"Oh? Secretary Li is here, please sit down quickly... Xiao Wang, pour tea for Secretary Li..." Liu Yang also stood up from the executive chair and sat on the sofa next to Li Dongdong: "What does Secretary Li have? What's the matter?"
Li Dongdong did not speak, but took out an envelope from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table between the two of them. Then he said, "Secretary Liu, please take a look at this first..."
"What is this?" Liu Yang asked as he grabbed the envelope, opened it and looked at it. It contained a USB flash drive and several receipts.
Li Dongdong said: "A person named Guo Jun from the General Affairs Office of No. 1 Middle School reported with his real name that Zhao Xiwu had style problems and was involved in corruption and bribery..."
"You are the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission. Since the other party reported it under his real name, then you should arrange for someone to investigate. Do you still need to report such a small matter to me?" Liu Yang put down the things in his hands with a smile and looked at Li Dongdong and said.
"Yes, I will arrange for someone to investigate immediately... However, Secretary Liu, I always feel that this matter is a bit abnormal. Yesterday, an incident involving Zhao Xiwu just happened in No. 1 Middle School. In the afternoon, Guo Jun sent the reporting materials When it came to the Discipline Inspection Commission... What's more, the video of Zhao Xiwu and a woman recorded in the USB flash drive showed that it was in August last year. He didn't report it for so long, but it happened that Zhao Xiwu and Wang Qingli were arrested. After he was arrested by the public security bureau, he immediately came to report him. Was it during this time... "
Didn't Miao Cuihong say that Li Chengli was Li Dongdong's younger brother? Did Li Chengli not communicate with Li Dongdong when he reported Zhao Xiwu, or did Li Dongdong say this deliberately to test himself
"Do you think that someone is adding insult to injury at this time and using the Public Security Bureau to find Zhao Xiwu, they want to knock Zhao Xiwu to the ground and then put another foot on him?"
Li Dongdong nodded and said, "I think it's possible."
Liu Yang pondered: "Anyway, since the other party reported it with his real name, it means that what Guo Jun reported may be true. Maybe the other party wants to use you as a gunman, but we still need to investigate. We I won't unjustly accuse him of that notice, but I can't condone rape. If there is no solid evidence, I will also give Zhao Xiwu the suspicion. If Zhao Xiwu really did these things, then don't be afraid of being used as a weapon by others, just deal with it how you want. deal with."
"I understand Secretary Liu, our Discipline Inspection Commission will definitely follow your instructions strictly." Li Dongdong stood up as he said this: "Then I won't disturb you..."
"Okay, hurry up and implement it. I have to go to the Public Security Bureau now." Liu Yang stood up and sent Li Dongdong out, pretending to be unintentional and asked: "I heard that Li Chengcheng, secretary of the Party Committee of the No. 1 Middle School, is Your brother?"
Li Dongdong was obviously stunned for a moment, and then replied: "That's right... However, the two of us haven't been in contact with each other for several years. When he wanted to be the principal of No. 1 Middle School, he asked me to help him. I think he Comrade Zhao Xiwu is not as capable as Comrade Zhao Xiwu in teaching, so... From then on, my younger brother hated me, and even if we met, he would not say a word to me... "
Having said this, Li Dongdong looked up at Liu Yang and asked doubtfully: "Does Secretary Liu suspect that this matter was caused by Li Chengli? In fact, after receiving the report letter, I also suspected him. It's just that after receiving the report letter, I also doubted him. , He is the secretary in charge of party affairs in No. 1 Middle School, Zhao Xiwu has always been a "pen" in No. 1 Middle School, and he has no access to the financial reimbursement documents mentioned here... "
Liu Yang smiled and shook his head: "Haha, I didn't say anything. I just heard about such a thing. I saw you today, so I just asked casually. Don't be influenced by me. Just check it out. That’s it.”
"I know Secretary Liu, I'll leave first." After Li Dongdong finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out. Turning back to his seat, Liu Yang couldn't help but grimace, thinking in his mind whether what Li Dongdong just said to him was true or false
But regardless of whether it is true or false, I cannot stop the Discipline Inspection Commission from investigating the case. Li Dongdong's true thoughts can only be seen after she investigates Zhao Xiwu's case.
Thinking of this, Liu Yang shook his head and said to himself, I want to see where this evil wind is going to blow
He stretched out his hand and was about to ask the driver Feng Feng to prepare the car when the phone under his hand suddenly rang. After Liu Yang answered it, his expression became a little solemn.
At 11:40 noon, just as he was about to get off work, Liu Yang finally arrived at Mayor Sun Zhuoqun's office. He reported on his recent work one by one, but he was wondering what Sun Zhuoqun's sudden call meant. Just from the absent-minded look on his face, Liu Yang also knew that he definitely didn't really want to hear a report when he called him over.
It wasn't until Liu Yang finished his 'report' that Sun Zhuoqun nodded and said, "Well, Huling County has done a good job recently. The construction of Ren-Peng Highway has started now. You must arrange for people to keep an eye on it and don't let anything happen. It’s a shoddy project. I also agree with the idea of giving orders and not putting stringent spells on the notices of doing things. However, without supervision, it is easy to breed corruption, so you still have to pay attention to things that should be paid attention to... "
Is there something in Mayor Sun’s words? What do you want to express? You might as well say it clearly...
To be honest, Liu Yang has never had a good impression of Sun Zhuoqun. However, since he and Sun Qingmei had that special relationship, when he saw Sun Zhuoqun again, Liu Yang always felt that he was a little afraid of facing him.
Today, Sun Zhuoqun obviously had something to say, which made Liu Yang secretly vigilant, but he did not secretly curse in his heart like usual.
