Most smart and refined people are picky, but Chen Miao is obviously a little too smart and refined to the extreme. Even if it is a temporary residence, it must be neat and orderly. No matter at any time, you should always prepare carefully before meeting someone, so as not to cause trouble for other people's eyes, and do not want to cause discomfort to yourself from the eyes of others. At the same time, she doesn't like others to act sloppily and inefficiently in front of her.
It was almost dusk when Li Muye returned home. When he entered the door, he saw Sister Chen sitting on a wicker chair by the window. The curtains were hung, sealing off the scene indoors. She slanted her body and read under the lamp. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a martial arts novel. Brother Xiao Ye has read Mr. Cha’s The Deer and the Cauldron many times and is very familiar with the cover.
"Do you remember the way back?" Chen Miao was a little dissatisfied with Ono's late return, and then asked with some expectancy: "How did that go?"
"There has been some progress. Today I had a fight over the eldest girl of the Zeng family." Li Muye said: "If you had given me a police identity or something like that, you wouldn't have been in this trouble today. I guess this matter It will be a lot easier too.”
"I might as well tell them directly that you are the director of the special transfer office, which is higher than the secretary of the municipal party committee in the city where they live. It will definitely be easier." Second Sister Chen said with a hint of ridicule.
Li Muye said: "I met someone named Lu and got into some trouble."
Chen Miao said: "It should be Lu Jun, the son of Comrade Xiang Chun. Have you taken action against him?" She didn't seem to notice her tone, and unconsciously stood in Brother Xiaoye's position, vaguely seeming to be worried and concerned.
Li Muye nodded and said: "That man is pursuing Zeng Hongyan, and the conditions are very different. If I want to complete the tasks assigned by you, I have to make a decisive decision. I thought about letting him retreat in the face of difficulties, but I didn't expect that man is not very capable and has a bad temper." Xiao, it’s not over yet.”
Chen Miao snorted and said: "No matter how angry you are, it's useless, but you'd better not go too far. His aunt's brother and I are old classmates. Before I came here on a business trip, I even fought with Comrade Xiang Chun. If necessary, I can mediate for you secretly, and it is not impossible to leave it to a friend."
Brother Ah Hui didn't tell him about this situation, and his mother obviously hoped that she would be merciful and not touch Lu Jun, and even wanted to make friends with him. But Chen Binghui hinted that he would directly kill the man named Lu.
Damn it, who should I listen to
The story behind this matter is not simple and involves too much. If it weren't for Second Sister Chen, Li Muye would never want to get involved. He thought of the information that Brother Ah Hui half-consciously revealed to him on the phone. This old classmate of my mother must be very extraordinary. Lu Xiangyang is a military figure, and his position is one level higher than that of his brother, who is the deputy secretary of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. That means he is a big shot at the ministry level. Why did Chen Binghui hint that he would kill Lu Jun? Why does Second Sister Chen have such a completely opposite attitude
"What are you thinking about?" Second Sister Chen put down the book in her hand, stood up and moved her limbs, and sighed: "I am really old. After sitting and reading for a while, my eyes are dazzled, my whole body is tight, my shoulders and back are all numb." uncomfortable."
Li Muye suddenly didn't know how to answer her question, so he changed the subject and said, "Do you want me to press it for you a few times?"
Chen Miao had no intention of delving into Brother Xiaoye's thoughts. Without commenting, he suddenly asked, "Have you already reported what happened here to Xiaohui?"
Li Muye did not hesitate for half a second: "Not yet. You have annoyed him recently. How can I tell him about your movements?"
"Duplicity." Chen Miao smiled calmly and said: "Your stupid son has a high IQ and great acting skills. Now I am really not sure which of your words is true and which is false." Obviously she did not think that Brother Xiaoye Tell the truth.
Li Muye said: "I will never do anything detrimental to you anyway. I think the same is true for Brother Ah Hui on this point."
Chen Miao sneered: "The emotional card, coupled with the clumsy undercover plan, I don't know where the two bastards got the confidence to play tricks in front of me, but it doesn't matter, I have plenty of free time to watch how you mess around." She said, and took the initiative to lie down. On the sofa, he beckoned: "Come on, silly son, give mom some press."
Second sister Chen has a wealth of wisdom and has long been accustomed to using conspiracy theories to view people and things around her. The only thing she didn't expect was that Brother Xiaoye's son was not just an act, nor was it Chen Binghui's ploy to play on her, as she thought, taking advantage of her longing for her late child.
The touch on her back brought her indescribable comfort, and this bastard's massage skills were simply unparalleled. Second Sister Chen tried her best not to hum.
"Second sister, do you want to take a nap?" Li Muye said, "I'll call you when the meal is ready."
"No need." Chen Miao moved his neck and waved his hand to signal Brother Xiaoye to stop. Li Muye immediately stood up and prepared a cup of tea for her. Chen Miao took it in his hand, took a sip, and said, "Okay, it's so heartwarming. Although this silly son is a little more thoughtful, his ability to take care of people is really unparalleled by others."
Li Muye said seriously: "It's all what I should do."
Chen Miao looked at him and felt that this boy's sincerity was really rare. If it wasn't for Chen Binghui's instruction, it would be great to have such a silly son.
"Aren't you going to cook?" Second Sister Chen said with a smile, "Go ahead, I'll watch TV by myself."
In the kitchen, Li Muye was busy. As expected, the sound of the news channel came from the TV in the living room. When content related to the South China Sea appeared, Sister Chen suddenly lost her temper and cursed: "Asshole, you are just playing the piano randomly!"
"Hey, who made you angry again?" Li Muye asked casually as he placed the prepared meal on the coffee table in the living room.
Chen Miao smelled the aroma and twitched her index finger, feeling a little hopeful. She didn't like to expose her true feelings to Brother Xiaoye, so she calmly refused to look at the delicious dishes and said, "Who else could it be besides your immediate boss?" She couldn't help but cursed: "Despicable. !reckless!"
Li Muye followed her tone and said, "Young people are inevitably impetuous when doing things. The main reason is that they are not familiar with the situation there, right?"
"You have ulterior motives!" Second Sister Chen snorted coldly, picked up her rice bowl, took a bite of the food, and said, "You two brats are the same as me. One is playing around with sugar-coated bullets here, and the other is just messing around on the South China Sea issue. I really think that Will this make me submit?"
"You'd better eat." Li Muye served her food and said, "It's not worth it to be angry and hurt your body. Brother Ah Hui won't listen to you. I'm different from him."
"Did Chen Binghui order you to attack Lu Jun?" Second Sister Chen took a few bites, then suddenly put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked over with burning eyes.
"He does mean this." Li Muye hesitated for a moment. Sister Chen's eyes were too intolerable. Brother Xiaoye realized that he couldn't hide it, so he might as well admit it frankly. At the end, he explained: "The main reason is that this person named Lu It’s a bit in the way.”
"Bullshit!" Second Sister Chen swore and said, "Don't I understand your little calculation? He is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking."
Li Muye could already guess Chen Binghui's true intention at this moment and asked, "Do you think Brother Ah Hui will do something detrimental to you?"
"I feel like I'm not old enough yet to need you to dictate my life!" Second Sister Chen suddenly became angry, picked up her chopsticks and threw them on the table, saying, "I've been working on this front for thirty-six years. When I was 20 years old, I never thought about getting involved in the disputes between factions within the party. How could I make such a low-level mistake when I retire? Those outsiders don’t know what I think. Chen Binghui was brought up by me with one slap after another. , how come you don’t know who his sister is?”
When it comes to this point, it is almost impossible to see the truth.
Li Muye simply said something clear: "Maybe he is not the one who is really worried about your mistakes? After all, there is no room for mistakes in such a big matter."
"Aren't you going to continue pretending to be a fool?" Second Sister Chen suddenly stopped her angry look and changed to a mocking smile.
"I was originally your stupid son. I am today and I will be again in the future." Li Muye said sincerely.
Chen Miao frowned slightly, waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, okay, keep pretending."
Li Muye chuckled and said, "No matter what you think, I am telling the truth anyway."
"Speaking of which, you are really dedicated enough to be able to pretend at this job." Chen Miao nodded and said, "Okay, if you like acting, we might as well continue to act as a couple, right? Do you listen to everything I say?"
Li Muye said: "My mission is to stay with you and take care of you. In my heart, you are my mother."
"You bastard's mouth is as sweet as honey." Chen Miao was a mother's heart, and she still had great doubts about this statement in her heart. She couldn't see any flaw in Brother Xiaoye's face, so she simply stopped looking, and then He picked up the bowl and chopsticks, took a few bites, and asked, "Have you had any contact with the girl from the Zeng family?"
Li Muye nodded and said, "There is probably some progress."
Second Sister Chen was a little doubtful: "Is it okay to pretend to be a fool?"
Li Muye flattered her: "What you told me has to be done even if it doesn't work. There are weaknesses in human nature, so I gave her some bad news." Second Sister Chen said, "You are really good at flattering people. Sugar-coated bullets." It's so targeted that even I can't resist it, I almost doubt whether you are my biological son, let alone that girl from the Zeng family."
Li Muye said: "You don't bring such harm to others."
Second Sister Chen said: "This is really not a disservice to you. To be honest, Li Muye, I really admire you. Being able to endure what others cannot endure is not considered great. The key is that you can still do things that others cannot do. This is It's very rare. Although I directed you to find the Zeng family out of respect for professional ethics and beliefs, privately, I don't hope that your special investigation team can handle this case beautifully."
Li Muye said: "I am now sure that you are complimenting me." As he said that, he carefully put the fish meat with the bones removed into Sister Chen's bowl.
Chen Miao watched silently, saying that drama is like life. If this is a drama, maybe it can really last a lifetime
"This case is much more complicated than you think." Second Sister Chen suddenly changed the subject and said: "The Taiping Society is hidden behind the Taiping Buddha Kingdom. Some people want to make a big fuss out of this matter. I don't agree with this. Yes, but some things are not simply a matter of stance, do you understand what I mean?"
She mentioned the Taiping Society, and this alone was enough for Brother Ono to smooth out the context of this matter. Old monk Shen Yun said before that the other party had three purposes for doing this game, and the last one was to promote something big. It seems to be what the Taiping Society calls a big article. Combined with the information revealed by Brother Ah Hui today, this so-called big article is probably referring to a certain big shot that Second Sister Chen knows. What she meant by this was very clear. She didn't agree with it, but it was inconvenient for her to object due to certain factors.
"You can probably imagine it." Li Muye said: "I know that in order to navigate the South China Sea, you have made many arrangements within the Nanhai Gate and the Taiping Society."
Second Sister Chen nodded slightly and said sincerely: "What a smart child. She was born to be in this industry." She added: "Xiaohui has his own ideas, but I also have my own plans. Some things must be done by me myself." Talent has a beginning and an end, so it’s not unacceptable to step back, but it shouldn’t be now.”
Li Muye nodded in understanding and said, "You have actually helped me a lot."
Second Sister Chen said: "I helped you out of public motives, but the reason why I chose to make you uncomfortable was out of selfish motives." Then she said: "You suddenly returned to Beijing, and Xiaohui suddenly came to your door that night, and then you With his support, he took over the Special Adjustment Office at lightning speed, which completely disrupted my layout and made me suspicious. I suggested the establishment of the Special Adjustment Office. Originally, the position was occupied by Huang Yonghao. Of course, this position would not be that of Huang Yonghao. It was given to him for free, and Ziyun Huang and I have an agreement on this matter."
Li Muye said: "Perhaps this is the source of the conflict between you and Brother Ah Hui?"
Chen Miao nodded slightly and said: "You are right. This is indeed the biggest problem between Xiaohui and I. In his opinion, I am choosing sides, so he can't wait to arrange for me to step down." , but in my opinion, others can think so, but they should never think of me like this."
Li Muye said: "You are now instructing me to handle this case, which actually shows that you are selfless."
"The handful of monsters in the Taiping Association are just suffering from scabies. It's my duty to point you out." Chen Miao said: "And I'm running against you not because of anything else, but because I can't believe that you will sincerely become my son. I I have always suspected that this is the ulterior arrangement of Chen Binghui’s little wolf, who wants to control me through you.”
"You are serious, no one can control you." Li Muye said solemnly, and then asked: "Why are you telling me these inside stories now?"
"Because I suddenly feel that it is quite good to have an eldest son like you." Second Sister Chen's beautiful red phoenix eyes narrowed into a thin line, she looked at Li Muye with a smile and said: "Through these few days of contact, I can at least confirm one thing. , even Xiaohui and you will at least not have any ill intentions toward me."
Mom obviously means to show off her cards. She has a deep mind and wisdom like the sea, and every word she speaks is full of profound meaning.
The opportunity was so rare that Li Muye could only listen carefully at the moment.
Chen Miao continued: "But I know that you two are hiding something from me. Don't deny it, because in my memory, you should not be someone who is at the mercy of others. Even if Xiaohui is in a high position now, It's impossible. You came to Beijing too suddenly this time, and your behavior with Chen Binghui was too consistent. This is not your nature, so I concluded that you two brats are hiding something from me. I have always wanted to do this before. Dig it out, but today, I changed my mind.”
"Why is this?" (End of Chapter)
