Chapter 421: The Sentimental Hedong Lion

…………

When he sent Zhang Liang out, it was already half past three in the morning, compared to the girl's overwhelming sleepiness, Zhang Ruiming seemed to be in good spirits, he even felt that he didn't need this girl to send him home, so he just read here all night tonight, and came and waited for him, which was a rare moment of peace of mind for him during this time.

If it weren't for the fact that persuading a young and beautiful female subordinate to stay would be too much, Zhang Ruiming would really want to persuade Zhang Liang to find a place to rest and go back later. can take into account the sensitive relationship between men and women, at this time, she can only tell her to be careful along the way, send a message when she arrives home, and report her safety.

"Oh, I know, how do you feel boss, you're as wordy as one of my brothers, it's really ......"

Zhang Liang smiled heartlessly and complained twice, then got into the car and waved goodbye. Zhang Ruiming nodded, and was about to turn around and go back to the store, when Zhang Liang hadn't rolled up the window yet, and suddenly there was a gentle teasing from this girl in his ears.

“…… Hey, if your concern was for Miss Ye, it would have been ...... a long time ago."

Zhang Liang's strange smile and ridicule unexpectedly attracted Zhang Ruiming's attention, and he suddenly turned around and asked, "Ye ...... I'm just friends with that Miss Ye, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing Zhang Ruiming's sudden serious appearance, Zhang Liang felt that his joke was a little out of place, his hot face was attached to the cold buttocks, and he stuck out his tongue, but he still said a little angrily: "Oh, what are you doing so seriously, I'm just joking, no wonder you are so straightforward, people are so sad for you, and now I don't know if you're gone...... Let's hope she can find a good one again in the United States......"

"What!?America?What America?!" Zhang Ruiming was shocked by the two words Zhang Liang just mentioned, he leaned over Zhang Liang's body, his face was much closer, and his serious appearance almost scared this little girl.

"Don't you know? Miss Ye, she seems to be going back to the United States, don't tell me you don't even know!?"

Zhang Ruiming shook his head, he seemed to have been hit by someone, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, and muttered in a tone that he couldn't even hear...... No......"

When he said the back, he suddenly became serious again, his voice was as loud as a low roar, his eyes seemed to be on fire, and he asked anxiously at Zhang Liang: "Isn't she going to marry that Chen Junyan? Why did she go abroad at this time?

Zhang Ruiming's response was almost demonic, but Zhang Liang had a look of disbelief on his face, "You really don't know!? Or are you kidding me? What kind of marriage is she getting now? Her fiancé has already been arrested! Chen Junyan is one of the eight senior managers of Quanjian who have been taken criminal coercive measures this time, you don't even know this!?"

Zhang Ruiming's eyes widened, he really didn't expect this to be such a situation, he originally thought that although Chen Junyan was the chief designer of Quanjian's products, most of Quanjian's purpose was to hit his "Thousand Talents Plan" and "Young Scholars". In the process of developing counterfeit health care products, he was not deeply implicated, at most he cooperated with the investigation, and when he heard that Shu Yihui was taken away because of the charges of pyramid schemes and false propaganda, Zhang Ruiming felt that this matter could not affect Chen Junyan's head, but today this was suddenly mentioned by Zhang Liang, and he knew that Ye Wen's fiancé was actually in prison, and it was estimated that he would be sentenced to a few years.

To be honest, Zhang Ruiming doesn't care what happened to Chen Junyan, after all, he is also an opponent who has faced each other several times, especially with a Ye Wen in the middle, no matter how Zhang Ruiming reminds himself, yes, when he saw the young man's smug face, he still couldn't say the unhappiness in his heart.

But now Chen Junyan has actually gone in!? He was worried about Ye Wen's mood for the first time, so he quickly grabbed Zhang Liang and wanted to ask clearly, but Zhang Liang didn't believe that Zhang Ruiming actually got the news at this time, she just said in surprise: "My God, this was more than a month ago, when Quan Jian just fell and Shu Yihui just went in, you haven't known the news?"

Zhang Ruiming smiled bitterly, he had already been excluded from the joint working group at that time, and he was not the lead prosecutor of Quan Jian's case, where would he know these inside information, he didn't care now, he just wanted to know Ye Wen's current situation.

"That'...... By the way, how do you know so clearly, you haven't seen her relationship with her, why would she tell you this?"

Zhang Liang didn't have to hide it for Ye Wen at this time, and told the whole cause and effect of the next fifteen and ten, "She has only been back to China for two years, and the people who have been out since she was a child don't know a few people in Tianjin and Hong Kong, let alone girls of the same age...... , that day...... It was the day after the "Gardenia Doctor" their official account was posted, Ye Wen suddenly called me and cried with me for a long time, and then I had a meal with her, and I talked a lot at that time, and I inexplicably deepened the relationship and became more familiar......"

When Zhang Liang said this, Zhang Ruiming suddenly remembered, wasn't that day the day when he and Zhang Liang went to Zhang Shengjie to report to work? Ye Wen suddenly called him that day before, crying and saying that he wanted to meet, and now that he thinks about it, it is estimated that it is because of this matter, for that sensitive and slender girl, she may have been so eager for her care and care at that time, but at that time, she was thinking about how to follow up on the storm that was about to be set off, and she had no time to pay attention to the girl who had repeatedly given everything for her case.

"That'...... How is she now? Is she feeling better? Do you know when she's leaving for the United States?"

After Zhang Ruiming hesitated, he asked a series of questions, which made Zhang Liang a little overwhelmed, and she immediately replied to Zhang Ruiming: "It's been a long time since she got better, after all, all of a sudden, the person she wants to marry has gone in like this, and the whole life plan has changed drastically, how did you let her accept it all at once." Moreover, she occasionally mentioned to me before going to the United States, when she left and what she was going to do, then I don't know, and I could only wish her happiness over there. ”

may be too concerned about Ye Wen's whereabouts, Zhang Ruiming was very dissatisfied with Zhang Liang's slightly frivolous answer in an anxious state of mind at this time, and he even had an impulse to reach out and grab Zhang Liang's shoulder, wanting to squeeze more news from this girl, but after a series of questions, he calmed down a little, and then forced himself to bear it.

Speaking of which, what is the relationship between Ye Wen and herself? Why does she interfere in other people's lives? What kind of face does she have to appear in front of her, especially when she needs herself the most, she chooses to ignore it.

Zhang Ruiming became depressed, he has a family and a wife in his heart, although there has been a crisis in the relationship between husband and wife with Tang Shi recently, but he will not let himself cross the red line beyond friendship, thinking of this, he sighed, waved his hand, and signaled that there was nothing more to say, and he wanted Zhang Liang to go back as soon as possible.

"Minister, then I'm leaving~"

With a brisk wave of his hand, Zhang Liang's red Audi A3 disappeared after a right turn, leaving Zhang Ruiming standing empty in the distance.

…………

Zhang Ruiming woke up in the warm sun of early winter, and in the scorching sun, he couldn't open his eyes at once. Sitting up, next to the tall floor-to-ceiling window, in front of the desk that he had never seen before, a staff member in a black staff uniform was picking up a book that had been overturned on the ground, this strange scenery made Zhang Ruiming feel as if he was still in a dream, not knowing what day it was.

He supported his forehead, he slept on this desk last night, so that a red mark was pressed on his face, and he was about to stand up with his feet up, but he almost fell, and his whole two feet had long been numb and lost his senses.

This is......

Looking at the book of Kurosawa Akira's "Toad's Oil" in front of him, Zhang Ruiming finally remembered that last night he was ill for a while, and he dragged Zhang Liang and himself to this 24-hour late-night bookstore in the middle of the night for most of the night, Zhang Ruiming himself didn't go home all night, and planned to read all night here, but not long after Zhang Liang left, the prosecutor who had been busy all day fell asleep on the desk.

Zhang Ruiming rubbed his eyes that were still a little confused, he suddenly remembered that he had been faintly feeling wrong since he woke up, as if there was a very important thing to do as soon as he woke up, and now he suddenly remembered that this matter was to call Ye Wen!

Yes, I have to quickly ask this girl what her situation is now, whether she is in a better mood, and it is best to ask her out for dinner to appease her.

With his familiar memory, Zhang Ruiming dialed Ye Wen's number immediately, but before the phone rang, he suddenly cut it off.

He didn't know why he was doing this, and he was flustered at this time, he obviously waited for a night, just to dial Ye Wen's number and send this belated concern, but when he really dialed it, he flinched again.

A thought grabbed his neck tightly behind him, and forced Zhang Ruiming in his ear: What do you want to do? At this time, don't you just want to get closer to her, what do you want? Confirm the relationship with her?

This sudden thought even Zhang Ruiming himself was startled, and another voice hurriedly denied it: How is it possible, absolutely impossible, this is just a simple care and care between friends, far from that kind ......of forbidden feelings, otherwise how can you be worthy of your wife, how can you be worthy of your daughter!?

Zhang Ruiming wanted to try to convince himself like this, but found that he felt that this reason was too hypocritical at this time. After going through so many ups and downs, how could he simply regard Ye Wen as an "ordinary friend"? He had to admit that in a certain corner of his heart, there was already Ye Wen's shadow, and at this time, there was a faint burning desire rising in his chest, he actually didn't want Ye Wen to go, he didn't want her to leave China, he didn't want her to leave his side, this kind of ** gradually became clear in Zhang Ruiming's mind, slowly eroding his will, and he even began to have some illusions, did he really want to ...... with Ye Wen

However, when this beautiful delusion became stronger and stronger, and it almost swallowed him, the tight spell in his heart began to work spontaneously, and hit him the head a few times.

What are you going to do!?Is this going to be sorry for your wife?Is this going to make your daughter a poor single baby!?Did you promise Xuanxuan that she wouldn't admit defeat, and at this time, she was going to admit defeat in front of her undeserved desires?Did you forget that you were a prosecutor!?

This self-reflection was suddenly like a cold spring empowerment, so that Zhang Ruiming woke up from these terrifying consequences, he quickly settled down on himself, although he was a little reluctant, he still put the phone back in his pocket, he was reminding himself: Ye Wen and Ye Wen can only be friends forever, so what can be done cannot cross this red line.

At this time, compared to those who were cold and warm with self-desire, Zhang Ruiming would rather choose to treat this girl with deliberate indifference, he gritted his teeth, and simply didn't think about whether Ye Wen left the country, he even felt that he would simply take this as the best opportunity to cut it off, and simply follow this matter and let the two of them return to the original point completely, even if there are some regrets, but at least he will not be so entangled and flustered.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ruiming slowly raised his head, at this time outside the window was the brilliant winter sky of Tianjin and Hong Kong, beautiful as first love, Zhang Ruiming's eyes were sharp, and the snow-white traces of the two planes were lying in this warm sun like a sapphire, and his heart was slightly touched for a moment.

If...... If the girl is gone, how should I deal with this memory between the two......

…………

Since the last time he was kicked out of bed by his wife, Zhang Ruiming began a new round of "cold war" with Tang Shi, and sleeping in separate beds has become the biggest symbol of this round of "cold war", and the opportunity for the official start, and because of this cold war, Zhang Ruiming suddenly gained unimaginable freedom, this night to work overtime to when and where, there will be no roaring questions from Hedong lions, and even occasionally come to the night and do not return, Zhang Ruiming returned home early the next morning, and only needed to crawl back to his study, make up for a sleep, and do not need to imagine those past "torture". In the past, if you said to yourself, "Hey, you can stay home at night in the future", then it is estimated that the former Zhang Ruiming will only think that he is crazy, and the current treatment will only be like a fantasy, and I can't imagine such a "free" day.

However, freedom also comes at a price.

After spending the initial novelty and pleasure, Zhang Ruiming has a deeper sense of guilt every day, he is always worried about whether his wife will be more angry, how to end this quarrel, gradually, this panic and guilt occupy the whole heart, Zhang Ruiming is almost overwhelmed, and he can't even devote himself to work.

And last night, if he hadn't been upset by a day's, and was completely hit by Zhao Zuo and Chen Chen, where would Zhang Ruiming have chosen to spend a night in a bookstore so rashly.

On the way home, Zhang Ruiming's heart was like a hangover, his hair was messy, his clothes smelled of coffee from last night's bookstore, and his eyes were scattered, he was completely the image of a wandering prodigal. He only hopes that his wife is not at home at the moment, so as not to have any bad misunderstanding about his trip last night, although Tang Shi will not say anything during the Cold War, but she must keep all this in her heart and wait for the future to settle the account. Zhang Ruiming can even imagine Tang Shi's cold eyes after seeing his prodigal image, that look ...... It's almost like to eat yourself

However, Tang Shi has often gone out in the morning recently, after the last case of Tianjin Pharmaceutical and Chemical Industry, Tang Shi, who lost her job, seems to be keen on going out to find a job recently, and is keen on all kinds of one-sided and two-sided, but unfortunately Zhang Ruiming and her are still in the Cold War, and if you want to find out a little about her recent job search progress, she can only rely on her mother's side knocks.

Just when Zhang Ruiming was hesitating to call his mother to confirm that Tang Shi was not at home, the phone rang at this time, and it was actually a call from his father Zhang Qingcang.

"Hey, Dad......" Zhang Ruiming naturally pressed the speakerphone, and Zhang Qingcang's voice over there was quite low, even if the amplification was turned on, it seemed quite quiet and mysterious.

"You...... Where are you now? Didn't you come home last night?"

Hearing Zhang Qingcang's tone, Zhang Ruiming chuckled in his heart, it was estimated that nothing good would happen, but he thought for a moment and replied truthfully: "Hmm...... I worked overtime last night, and I found a random place to sleep when I had something to do in the back, how ...... Are you alright?"

"Here's the thing, you hurry up and ......"

Suddenly, a sharp sound interrupted Zhang Qingcang's narration, and the murmur on his side began to increase, during which the background sound was mixed with a few female high-pitched reprimands, this female voice was sharp and high-pitched, and Zhang Ruiming's heart was numb when he listened, of course he knew that the female voice in the background was his wife's voice, thinking that because he didn't return all night last night, Tang Shi saw the lion roaring in Hedong over there.

After a few seconds, with a gurgling sound of going up the stairs, after a "bang", Zhang Qingcang must have hid back in his room, and then continued to say to Zhang Ruiming on the phone: "Did you hear it, your wife is losing her temper again." ”

Zhang Ruiming was also gloomy at this time, he could even imagine how Tang Shi was thunderous over there, but he also blamed himself, if he encountered this situation, he might have to go crazy, after all, his actions last night were too rash.

"I know...... I'm almost there, I'll be back soon, I was talking to a few friends about the case last night, and I was late at a bookstore......"

Over there, Zhang Qingcang interrupted Zhang Ruiming's explanation, and he whispered: "You don't need to tell me this, I called to tell you that it's useless for you to come back now!"
