"Say no more, please!" Quiet suddenly raised her head, her tearful eyes revealed a hint of horror, and her voice trembled, "I'm afraid! "Why?" Ning Zhiyuan didn't understand why Jing Jing had such a reaction, and stretched out a hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Jing Jing's eyes with his thumb, "Don't you want to accept my feelings?" ”

Quietly shook his head, tears couldn't stop flowing, "No, I don't dare, I've already lost all my loved ones, I don't want to go through such a blow again, so I don't dare to accept it, I'm afraid that one day I will be left behind again." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ning Zhiyuan's heart seemed to have been hit by something, he stood up and leaned his quiet head on his body, gently stroked Quiet's hair with one hand, and said distressedly: "Don't cry, maybe you don't know me well enough, that's why you have this kind of worry." But I can tell you that what I say to you is well thought out, and that I will never leave you behind, having made up my mind. Although my job is somewhat dangerous, I promise that I will not let myself have any accidents. ”

Silence didn't make a sound, just sobbed softly. After a while, Ning Zhiyuan let go of Tranquility and sat down opposite Tranquility again, took out the tissue from the tissue box on the coffee table, gently wiped the tears on Tranquility's face, and said in a soft but very firm tone: "You don't have to answer me immediately, I won't put pressure on you." I don't know how to be someone else's boyfriend yet, but I'm going to try to learn, and one day I'll let you put aside all your worries and stay with me. Don't cry, okay? ”

Ning Zhiyuan scratched his quiet nose with his index finger as he spoke, with a smile between his eyebrows, "The first time I confessed to someone in my life, I can make you feel moved, it seems that I still have a talent for love." "I hate it," Quiet laughed at being amused by Ning Zhiyuan's slightly childish behavior, slapped Ning Zhiyuan's hand away in disgust, and stood up and walked to the bathroom with a blushing face, "I'll wash my face." ”

Looking at the figure of Quiet fleeing quickly, Ning Zhiyuan involuntarily hooked the corners of his mouth, although Quiet did not nod in agreement, but did not refuse, which relieved Ning Zhiyuan's nervous mood all the time, he stretched his body and leaned on the sofa, picked up the book that Quiet put on the coffee table and flipped through it.

Quietly slapped his hot face with cold water in the bathroom, trying to calm his ups and downs. Looking at his still reddened cheeks in the mirror, he quietly took a few deep breaths, wiped his face with a towel, combed his somewhat messy hair, and quietly slipped back to the living room.

Ning Zhiyuan glanced at the quiet with the corner of his eye, and saw her low eyebrows and a shy look nestled in the sofa, and couldn't help but feel heartstrings. Putting down the book in his hand, staring at Quiet with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, Quiet was made even more cramped and uneasy by his hot gaze, lowered his head, and rubbed the corners of his clothes with both hands. "Don't be so nervous," Ning Zhiyuan stood up and walked over to Jingjing, reaching out and rubbing the top of her head, "I said I wouldn't put pressure on you." You have to be careful when you go to work tomorrow, I can't go back to D City for the time being these days, if there is anything, you must call me immediately, you know? ”

Quietly nodded, raised his eyes to look at Ning Zhiyuan and asked in a low voice, "Are you going back?" Ning Zhiyuan leaned down and looked at Jing Jing, blinked his eyes and said, "What, reluctant to let me go?" Quietly, who had just returned to normal, turned red again, and lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Ning Zhiyuan looked at her slightly trembling eyelashes, coughed lightly, suppressed the urge to kiss the pink cheek, straightened up and said, "I have to go back, I just had some clues in the past two days, and there is still a lot of work to be done." But don't worry, no matter how busy I am this time, I will find time to call you. ”

Leaving the quiet house, Ning Zhiyuan drove all the way back to Dawang Village. It was already more than eleven o'clock at night when I arrived at the village committee, the lights were still on in the conference room, and Chen Feng was dozing off with one hand on his head. The sound of the car engine in the yard woke him up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked out, sure enough, it was Ning Zhiyuan who came back. Hurriedly turned off the lights in the conference room and ran out to open the door for Ning Zhiyuan.

"I'm really sorry to let you wait for me so late, hurry up and go to sleep." Ning Zhiyuan patted Chen Feng's shoulder with a smile in his eyes. "Team Ning, it's quiet, right?" Chen Wei closed the door of the building and asked. "It's okay, she worked the night shift last night and wasn't in the hospital in the afternoon." Ning Zhiyuan said as he went upstairs. "It's okay if my sister-in-law is fine." Chen Feng laughed. Ning Zhiyuan suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Chen Feng, "What do you call quiet?" ”

"Sister-in-law," Chen Feng squeezed his eyes, "Look at the way you look like the spring breeze on your face, how about it, take it?" "What nonsense," Ning Zhiyuan glanced at Chen Feng, and then forced a smile and said, "I quite like this title." But don't call it that in front of her, she hasn't officially agreed to me yet. ”

The next morning, Ning Zhiyuan arranged for Wu Litao and Jiang Xue to go to Liu Lizhen's stepfather's house, and he and Chen Feng went to the county agricultural materials company. On the way, I received a call from Song Ming, saying that he had seen Geng Pinghong and was on his way back, and it was estimated that he would be able to rush back to Dawang Village in the afternoon.

The county agricultural materials company is located in the center of the county, mainly engaged in fertilizers and pesticides. In the hall on the first floor, there were a few peasant-looking people reading leaflets, and a young man who looked like a salesman saw Ning Zhiyuan and Chen Feng coming in, smiled at them enthusiastically and said, "What do you two need?" Chen Feng explained his identity to him and offered to meet the company's manager. The young man frowned slightly, "Manager Zhang is in the office upstairs, I'll take you up." ”

Manager Zhang is a thin middle-aged man with a shrewd eye. After learning about Ning Zhiyuan and Chen Feng's intentions, he thought for a moment and said: "Liu Lizhen worked in our company for two or three months three years ago, don't look at her short time, but I still have some impressions of her. ”

Saying that, Manager Zhang took out a cigarette and handed it to Ning Zhiyuan and Chen Feng, Ning Zhiyuan waved his hand and said, "Neither of us smokes, please poop." Manager Zhang lit a cigarette, took two puffs and asked, "I heard that there was a fire in Dawang Village a few days ago, and a person was burned to death." Liu Lizhen is from Dawang Village, this matter can't have anything to do with her, right? ”

Ning Zhiyuan smiled, stared at Manager Zhang's eyes and said, "We are just routine and investigate the people in Dawang Village. Does Manager Zhang have any clues to give us? "No, no," Manager Zhang hurriedly waved his hand, "My family is not from Dawang Village, what clues can I have, just ask, ask." "Since Manager Zhang said that he had an impression of Liu Lizhen, please tell me about the situation at that time." Ning Zhiyuan pulled the topic back again.

"Ahem," Manager Zhang coughed lightly twice, snuffing out the cigarette in the ashtray, "Originally, I wasn't too optimistic about Liu Li when she applied for the job, she didn't know much about agricultural materials, and she didn't have work experience, but at that time, the company was really short of people, so I used her." However, this little girl was quite studious and clever, and soon mastered some basic knowledge, and after a month's probationary period, I left her behind. She also said that she cares about this job very much and will definitely work hard to do it well. ”

"Then why did Liu Lizhen resign after only three months? Is your company's benefits too low? Ning Zhiyuan asked. How to say it, after all, we are only a company in the county, and we are definitely not comparable to those state-owned enterprises and foreign enterprises. Manager Zhang shrugged, "But the treatment in the county is not low, and there is basically no cost for food and lodging......

"Wait," Ning Zhiyuan interrupted Manager Zhang's words, "Your company includes food and accommodation?" "Yes," Manager Zhang nodded, "The dormitory is upstairs in this building, and there is a small kitchen behind the warehouse on the first floor, and an aunt is specially hired to cook." ”

Liu Lizhen said that the salary of the agricultural material company was low, not enough to maintain a normal life, so she resigned and returned to Dawang Village, it seems that she is lying. Ning Zhiyuan thought of this and asked Manager Zhang: "Liu Lizhen is doing a good job here, why did she resign?" "Alas, it's not her stepfather who caused the trouble." Manager Zhang waved his hand, with a disdainful expression on his face, "Her stepfather's family has a stupid son who can't marry a daughter-in-law, so her stepfather hit her with the idea, and her mother doesn't know if her brain is sick, so she actually agreed to give the girl to a fool." Liu Lizhen was unwilling, and her stepfather came to the company every day to make trouble, so that we couldn't do business normally. As soon as I saw it, this was not a problem, so I quit Liu Lizhen, but I didn't treat her badly, and I gave her an extra half a month's salary before leaving. ”

Ning Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh, there is still such a mother in the world, no matter what the reason, she can't push her own daughter into the fire pit. No wonder Liu Lizhen doesn't have any contact with her mother, she turned out to be jealous of her stepfather and mother's family.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhiyuan asked again: "Then do you know how this matter ended in the end?" Manager Zhang shook his head, "I don't know much about this, but later I heard from the staff that Liu Lizhen was tied up by her stepfather to marry a fool, Liu Lizhen was forced to die, and her stepfather had no choice but to let her go back to Dawang Village." This is also hearsay, and I don't know if that's the case. ”

asked Manager Zhang other questions, and he said that he did not have much contact with Liu Lizhen, and he was not clear about anything other than the above. Ning Zhiyuan felt that since he couldn't get more information, there was no need to talk about it anymore, and he and Chen Feng left the county agricultural materials company.

Back in Dawang Village, just in time for a few children to get out of school at noon and frolicking on the road, "Uncle Policeman! Yuan Yuan saw Ning Zhiyuan's car, threw down his little friend and ran over, "Didn't you say that you would go to see me?" Why didn't you come? Ning Zhiyuan pulled over the car, opened the door and got out of the car, bent down in front of Yuanyuan, put his hands on his knees and whispered: "Uncle has something to ask you, you must think about it before answering!" ”

"What's the matter?" Yuan Yuan blinked and said, "You ask!" "Okay," Ning Zhiyuan simply squatted down, his eyes in line with Yuanyuan, "Did your Aunt Lizhen stay at home with you on the day the old mansion caught fire?" ”
