Tianjin, Lei Mansion.
Ye Chunhao went upstairs to see Inspector Lei, and when she met Bai Xuefeng coming back from outside, she was about to go upstairs at a trot, so she stopped and made a "please" gesture to Bai Xuefeng. Bai Xuefeng was a little embarrassed, and also stopped: "Miss Ye has something to find the handsome? Then Miss Ye will ask first, I'll wait." โ
Ye Chun said with a smile: "It's not important for me, Adjutant Bai first, please!"
Bai Xuefeng was very convinced of Ye Chunhao's spring breeze, and also knew that she had a bit of a man's temperament, and she could talk and do things with her directly, so she smiled at her: "Then I'll go in first, and I'm also a matter of words." โ
When Bai Xuefeng entered the door, Lei Duli was sitting behind the large writing desk, in a daze.
It's already icy and snowy outside, and the heating in the room is boiling hot, so that a few pots of orchids on the flower shelves are waiting to be released. Lei Duli leaned back in the sofa chair, only added a blue satin vest over his shirt, and the shirt collar button was also unbuttoned, which showed that the room was indeed hot enough.
After Bai Xuefeng entered the door, he first turned around and closed the door, and then lowered his hand and bowed to him slightly: "Handsome." โ
Only then did Lei Duli roll his black eyes and glance at him lazily.
Bai Xuefeng walked to his side, leaned over to his ear, and whispered softly: "Dashuai, I found out, Lin Yannong did flee to Wenxian, Zhang Jiatian found her a house, and she has been living there for several months. Usually Zhang Jiatian doesn't go much, but every day he sends an adjutant to visit her. โ
Inspector Lei's face was expressionless, he only raised his hand and made a gesture of unknown meaning: "Do they-"
The meaning of the gesture is unclear, and the words have a beginning and an end, but Bai Xuefeng has a heart with him, and he understands at a glance: "It is said that there should have been no relationship." Zhang Jiatian is very diligent and cautious in Wenxian County, and he is not close to women. โ
Inspector Lei snorted a laugh from his nose: "Not close to women." โ
Bai Xuefeng smiled with him: "Dashuai, then what are you going to do with him?"
Lei Duli raised his hand slightly: "Leave him alone, let him go." โ
Bai Xuefeng glanced at him, as if he was a little surprised, but he didn't ask any more: "Yes." โ
Inspector Lei waved his hand again.
Bai Xuefeng straightened up and took a step back: "Handsome, Miss Ye is also here, just waiting outside the door." โ
This time, he only moved his index finger and hooked it inward.
Bai Xue was resolute, walked out quickly, and said to Ye Chunhao: "Miss Ye, please come in, the handsome man is waiting for you." โ
As soon as Ye Chun entered the door, Lei Duli stood up.
Walking quickly in front of her, he first took her shoulder, looked down at her face, then walked behind her and hugged her with open arms. Ye Chunhao was surprised and laughed: "Hey, hey." She whispered to his cousin: "Yuting, if you don't mess with me like this, I'll go." โ
Like a big piece of kraft candy, Lei Duli stuck to her back tightly: "You go, you can't walk out of the palm of my hand." He tilted his head, bent down to her ear and laughed, "Didn't you see, I already caught you?"
Ye Chunhao glanced back at him, then turned to the front and smiled.
After a long battle between heaven and man, she finally got tired and decided to disarm and surrender to fate. When she surrendered, she can't remember clearly, anyway, one day, Lei Duli sat next to her on the sofa, sat and sit, suddenly turned around, and wanted to hug her.
She subconsciously wanted to avoid resistance, but her two hands were raised halfway and fell down again for no reason. Radully's arms wrapped around her, pulling her all the way into his bosom, she couldn't breathe, occasionally struggling to take a breath, and inhaling the scent of cologne on Radully's body. So tears flowed down in big drops, and she cried and trembled in Lei Duli's arms as if she had been greatly wronged.
Lei Duli was obviously startled, took a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and rubbed her shoulders and arms, thinking that he had hurt her.
That crying was a big gaffe for Ye Chunhao.
She couldn't tell why she suddenly cried, but after crying, she sat there weakly and took the initiative to hold one of Lei Duli's hands.
She took the hand, shook it for a moment and then released it, looking at it with serious curiosity. That hand was slender and thin, with clear lines, and in her eyes, it was the most beautiful man's hand.
She doesn't look at Lei Duli's people, she only looks at Lei Duli's hands. She couldn't finish looking at this man, she could only look at his hand first.
After reading it, she and him interlocked their fingers, only to feel that they had broken through a cage, and suddenly the sky and the earth were big, with light and wind.
Since then, she has entered a new world of light.
She doesn't talk about love, she doesn't talk about love, she doesn't talk about romance, she doesn't want romance, life is still going on as usual, but her mood has changed, and she feels that everything is good. The autumn rain is good, and the wind and snow are good. Go out for a walk, the weather is cold, there is no life, everything is covered with snow and frost, and it is cold, or good.
At this time, leaning back on Lei Duli, she stood for a moment and patted his arm: "You let go of me, I have something serious to discuss with you." โ
Governor Lei let go and pulled her to the couch to sit down. Ye Chunhao tugged at the placket, and then leaned over to face him: "I'll tell you-" She winked at Lei Duli: "I'm going to speak, what are you laughing at?"
After saying this, she raised her hand to cover her mouth and couldn't help but laugh too: "Don't laugh, I will laugh if you laugh...... Don't look at me, or I won't tell you anything. โ
Lei Duli leaned back and closed his eyes: "Okay, okay, don't look at you, you can say it!"
He didn't look at her, but she took the opportunity to stare at him: "What I want to talk about is still about investing in Dayang Company." In the past two months, I have also inspected it for a long time, both openly and secretly, and I feel that this company is indeed really engaged in trading, not the kind of leather bag company, and it should be trustworthy, so-"
Lei Duli opened his eyes: "How much are you going to throw in?"
Ye Chunhao groaned slightly: "300,000 to 500,000." โ
"Is there enough money in the account?"
"Enough is enough, but if all the funds are invested here, the business on the account room will not be able to turn around. But I also think that kind of business, to put it mildly, is really a disaster for the country and the people. You now have the identity and power of a provincial governor, and you can do this kind of business, if you don't do this governor in the future, and don't lead troops, then this kind of business is amazingly profitable, and it will be taken away by others immediately. โ
Lei Duli smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I sold some tobacco and soil to supplement the military salary, but I actually committed the crime of bringing disaster to the country and the people." โ
"Don't be careful, I don't mean to criticize you at all. It's just that I thought to myself, it's also to make money, why don't you make that clean and long-term money?"
Lei Duli frowned: "Good spring, you are a little girl after all, you don't understand my hardships." These hundreds of thousands of soldiers under my command are all in need of food and drink, and if they starve for three days, they will be in danger of mutiny. It's so difficult for the War Department to pay their salaries, don't you have to let me get money to support them in the end?"
"Aren't the taxes you levied enough to cover the costs?"
"How is that enough? If it is enough, why should I borrow money from the Anglo-American Bank again and again? The press scolded me for not caring for the people's hardship and fishing for all my might, saying that I was a scraper, but in fact I was really wronged. Whoever sits in my seat is going to do the same. โ
Ye Chunhao was dumbfounded by him, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head and said softly, "I really don't understand." Butโ"
Lei Duli raised his hand and put his arm around her shoulder: "I know you are for my good." Whether it's 300,000 or 500,000, it's a finite amount after all, and you can do it yourself, I trust you. Then he stood up: "I have a meeting in the afternoon, and I will take you out in the evening." I will go back to Beijing next week, but I probably won't be able to come back before the year. โ
Ye Chun saw his energetic appearance, and felt helpless in his heart, but it was inconvenient to force him to listen to his own accounting. He was not as helpless and innocent as he said, and the more Ye Chunhao understood the amount of his assets, the more he thought that he was not ordinary greed. Greedy, but greedy but will not dispose of it, and leave it there and waste, like the work of ignorant and willful children. Previously, Lin Zifeng managed the accounts for him, and he didn't take away more than one million of his oil and water, which was already considered to be a breeze on his sleeves and worthy of him.
So sometimes Ye Chunhao also wonders, I don't know how to become a supervisor with the mind of Lei Duli.
Before the meeting, Lei received a handwritten letter from Zhang Jiatian.
There were almost no serious words in the letter, and the words became bigger and bigger, and all the words were greetings, as if no one in the world would care about Lei Duli except him. Lei Duli looked at the letter, and was not only moved, but also very angry. Speaking of which, he and Ye Chunhao can be regarded as free love, he didn't rob Zhang Jiatian's wife, but ......
However, he then changed his mind again - he has the grace of reinvention for Zhang Jiatian, if Zhang Jiatian turns against him for a woman, it proves that Zhang Jiatian is a white-eyed wolf. Don't say that Zhang Jiatian is unrequited love for Ye Chunhao, even if Ye Chunhao is really Zhang Jiatian's daughter-in-law, he has taken a fancy to her, if he knows each other, he should obediently wash his daughter-in-law and send it over!
Otherwise, he is sorry for himself.
Thinking about it like this, Lei Duli suddenly became enlightened, and he thought that this could also be regarded as a test - just like the time he shot Zhang Jiatian's head, it was a test.
Real gold that does not pass through the flames is not real gold. In the same way, who knows if an untested loyal servant is a true loyal servant?
