Chen Fengxi, who was hungry, didn't wake Qiao Yu up, and quietly moved her from the wet bed to the next bed, and then tiptoed out of the room.

When night falls, the moment when it should be the lights of thousands of homes is the red light of 10,000 cars.

The rapid development of Beijing has made it feel modern, but it has slowly eroded the heritage of the thousand-year-old capital.

The proper character is covered by the skyscrapers, and the cultural customs are indecent because of the people who work in other places, and even the restaurants on the street are extremely difficult to find restaurants with authentic old Beijing signs, most of which are some Sichuan and Northeast restaurants.

After driving around the street for a long time, Chen Fengxi couldn't find a reliable old Beijing restaurant, so he had no choice but to enter a roast duck restaurant with a century-old name.

Roast duck is a characteristic of Beijing, and it is also the culture of Beijing, but this characteristic and culture now seem a little disqualified, it is a similar restaurant with a hanging oven roast duck, but for Chen Fengxi, whether it is the Quanjude that he ate yesterday, or the cheap shop he is eating now, the roast duck is not as good as Zhang Changgong.

In this bustling open restaurant, only Chen Fengxi sits alone, and most of the others are couples, lovers, friends, and colleagues sitting around drinking and chatting.

The broad and profound food culture and the thousand-year-old wine culture seem so small at this time.

In the end, Chen Fengxi chose to leave because there was no way to be lively in this restaurant.

Chen Fengxi, who returned to the car, went straight to the purgatory of the eight bitters.

Baku has now adapted to this 9-to-5 life, and when Chen Fengxi arrived, he was lying leisurely in the dormitory watching the bloody TV series.

The dormitory is a convenient hotel.

Almost all the people living in the hotel are students in purgatory, which was originally an operational office of the National Security Bureau, but now, it has become a dormitory building in purgatory, which can be found on the Internet, but it always shows that the rooms are full, anyway, even if the building is empty, ordinary people have no way to reserve a room here.

Baku didn't get up to greet him, but said with a look of disdain: "Just look at your appearance, you know that you haven't been idle in the past two days." ”

Chen Fengxi wanted to cry and said without tears: "It's not just that I'm not idle, I almost died of exhaustion!" Forget it, don't talk about me, it's hard to say. Hey, what's going on with your investigation? ”

Ba Ku got up and took out a USB flash drive from his clothes, and then found the information of the Han family from the computer, and said with a smile while making room for Chen Fengxi: "You and this Han Sheng are really a pair of enemies, it is estimated that they were lovers in their last life, otherwise how could such a bloody thing happen?" ”

Chen Fengxi opened the information with curiosity and read it.

Han Jun, a criminal policeman, has a serious background in criminal investigation.

Originally, Han Jun had the opportunity to work in the city's criminal police team, but in order to facilitate the care of his parents, Han Jun chose his work location in the surrounding counties.

The last time Chen Fengxi entered Beijing, it can be said that the city was full of turmoil.

Although the people Chen Fengxi cleaned up were just some unscrupulous people and bad officials, those marginal people who depended on these people for survival also suffered miserably, and many guys who usually flaunted their might because of their masters were hunted down and killed by the enemy.

The so-called chasing and killing is not really killing, but just beating or slashing.

And Han Jun is anti-black, so he naturally has to take care of this kind of fighting incident that occurred because of the land grabbing, and when he got off work, Han Jun acted bravely, and finally led to a ruptured spleen and died heroically.

Han Sheng, who had just recognized his brother and suffered this catastrophe, naturally couldn't swallow this breath, and all those who directly or indirectly led to Han Jun's death became the target of Han Sheng's revenge.

Most of those who have no official position or no position died because of falling from a building or a car accident, and as for those officials or soldiers, they were doxxed by the National People's Congress, isolated and examined one after another, and the children who were sent abroad by them also ended up evaporating from the world.

Judging from the current situation, basically Han Sheng moved all the people who could move, and only a big man of Feng Changkong's level was left who didn't move, but according to Han Sheng's character, this is also a matter of time, because no matter how you look at it, this kind of thing can only be done by a madman.

"If you don't do it again, I guess even he will clean us up."

When Chen Fengxi was secretly speechless, Ba Ku threw him a cigarette lukewarmly.

Chen Fengxi said thoughtfully: "The current situation is not suitable for hands-on. ”

Baku said disapprerovingly: "You have to come clearly? Like Han Sheng, wouldn't it be okay for people to accidentally fall from a building or get a car accident! ”

Chen Fengxi said with a worried face: "That is to say, Han Sheng is not a fool, even if the official doesn't care, Han Sheng will play with us, and then there will be a full-scale war." So far, there are not many hole cards in Han Sheng, I am afraid that once we make a move, we will be doomed. ”

Baku said angrily: "Are you a woman who sleeps too much and sleeps stupidly?" You're afraid he'll the ball! It's a big deal, let's just run out of the country then. ”

Chen Fengxi said helplessly: "That's what I said, but how can we get out?" It's not like you haven't seen how crazy this guy Han Sheng is, should you let everyone who is related to me go abroad when the time comes? The only way now is that I can completely restrain him in the officialdom, force him to act first, and then I will use the power of the state to fight him! ”

Hachi said bitterly: "The idea is good, but it is difficult to implement. You are still just a petty official with sesame mung beans, but Han Sheng can be promoted to the hall in minutes, what do you use to suppress him? ”

Chen Fengxi said with an embarrassed face: "I don't know six out of seven tricks about officialdom, and Li Nanzhi helped me get through the rest of the tricks." Although Li Nanzhi is smart, she can't rely on her ability alone. ”

"Then look for her family."

"How can that work, isn't that a clear statement that I'm not a thing!"

"Also, then why don't you ask Leng Yantong for help?"

"Find out how she can help."

"I'll go, you don't know yet! Her father is Leng Yi! ”

"What did you say?"

"Rub, you really don't know. Leng Yantong is Leng Yi's daughter, and I only found out about it two days ago. ”

"Really?"

"Is this a joke? You just call and ask, don't you know? ”

Chen Fengxi hesitated for a moment, but finally dialed Leng Yantong's phone, and after getting Leng Yantong's affirmative answer, Chen Fengxi straightforwardly explained his original intention.

Leng Yantong did not hesitate to let Chen Fengxi come to her house as a guest, and after Chen Fengxi heard about it, she immediately rushed to the military compound where Leng Yi lived.

Because Leng Yantong was waiting on the street outside the gate of the compound early, Chen Fengxi passed the three checkpoints without much effort, otherwise, it is estimated that he would not be able to enter until he died.

After parking the car steadily, Chen Fengxi grabbed Leng Yantong, who was about to open the door and get out of the car, and said with some embarrassment: "Am I a little too abrupt?" ”

Leng Yantong said disappreciatively: "What's abrupt, my father knows everything about the two of us." ”

"Huh?" Chen Fengxi's eyes widened in surprise, the two of them had a relationship that only happened the day before yesterday, so soon Leng Yi knew?

"I said when my dad was going to arrange a marriage for me, that's why he arranged such a marriage for me."

"Your dad is so good?"

"It's not good that I don't recognize him, I didn't want to recognize him in the first place, I recognized him for the sake of him as if he might help you. Okay, you can talk about this later, you go up first, or he should leave in a moment. ”

"Hmm."

Chen Fengxi followed Leng Yantong to Leng Yi's house, I don't know if this big leader's house is like this, anyway, it doesn't feel humane at all, it's all the official furnishings, it's just like the study arranged by Li Nanzhi for Chen Fengxi, the only difference is that everywhere in this house is arranged like that.

Leng Yi, who already knew that Chen Fengxi was coming, sat on the sofa with his wife, and Mrs. Leng, who was at least ten years younger than him, saw Chen Fengxi enter the door, so she naturally got up and went into the kitchen to help him make tea and pour water.

Looking at the woman's age and appearance, Chen Fengxi basically understood what was going on, it is estimated that this is Leng Yantong's stepmother, so Leng Yantong has such a big opinion on Leng Yi.

Leng Yi said straight to the point: "When I only have half an hour, I want to ask what to ask." ”

Chen Fengxi said bitterly: "Leng Ju, you know my current situation better than me. So I want to ask, what exactly should I do now. It's not a problem to be so up-and-down! ”

Leng Yi said meaningfully: "Everyone knows the situation between you and Han Sheng. ”

"Huh? What do you mean? Chen Fengxi asked with a puzzled expression.

Leng Yi said lukewarmly: "That means that the two of you know all the unsightly things behind your backs." ”

"Uh......" Chen Fengxi was speechless for a while, since he knew everything, why did he entrust the two of them with a heavy responsibility, in fact, his responsibility was not heavy, it seemed that Han Sheng was the heavy responsibility.

Leng Yi said meaningfully: "To achieve great things, you must be informal." And the two of you both have places where you can contribute to the party and the country, and it is difficult to make a choice. For this matter, I have held more than one meeting with several leaders to discuss, and we all feel that neither of you can give up, but I can't indulge you, so I sent the two of you to Xishan, which is now the most turbulent place, hoping that the two of you can consider how you should go in the future through the situation of Xishan officialdom. In other words, we only want to see you work hard for nation-building, and we don't want to see you do it because of personal vendettas. Whichever of you strikes first will face a blow that you can't bear. ”

Chen Fengxi's eyes widened in sudden realization, and he exclaimed, "You mean, now the top is completely testing the two of us, to see who can use it and who can't?" ”

Leng Yi said stupidly: "I thought you were very smart, but I didn't expect you to be able to figure out such a simple thing." A lot has happened in the past few years, and many people have failed to live up to the expectations of the party, the state, and relevant leaders, and have done many things that have misled the country and harmed the people. This kind of problem can't be solved in three days or two days, if you want to solve this kind of problem, you have to take a fierce medicine, and people like you and Han Sheng are this fierce medicine. But now that all of you are in the investigation period, it will be a few days before we know whether it is poison or medicine. ”

Chen Fengxi asked curiously, "Everyone? Anyone else but the two of us? Could it be that Chen Ku and Ren Yuting are too? ”

"Chen Ku counts one, Ren Yuting doesn't count, he is originally a person in the system. The purpose of this time is to use those of you who are not in the system who have the ability, the means, and the connections to remove the cancer in the system. Now there are many Chinese elites you know but can't think of are preparing to return to China and show their strength in various positions, so it is best for you to stand firm before these people come back, otherwise, in the future, the leaders will not pay attention to your first batch of people as they do now. Okay, it's time, it's time for me to go. Your aunt's skill in making tea is good, you can taste it in a while. Leng Yi said that he would leave, and he didn't even give Chen Fengxi a chance to say goodbye, so he got up and went out with his briefcase.

"Don't be surprised, your Uncle Leng has been very busy lately." As soon as Leng Yi left, Mrs. Leng came over with a tea tray.

"Auntie, you're too polite." Chen Fengxi hurriedly got up to greet him.

Leng Yantong glanced at Chen Fengxi, and said stupidly: "Why don't you be so polite to me?" ”

"Uh...... Auntie isn't an elder! Chen Fengxi said with a wry smile.

"She's also an elder? Forget it, let's talk. Leng Yantong glanced at her stepmother unhappily and then returned to her room angrily.

Madame Leng's face immediately showed a look of loss.

Seeing this, Chen Fengxi hurriedly comforted: "Auntie, don't go to your heart, it is estimated that Yantong just can't get around this bend." ”

Mrs. Leng smiled awkwardly: "It's been seventeen years. For her sake, you Uncle Leng and I didn't even want children. But she still won't forgive us. ”

Chen Feng asked puzzledly: "Can I ask more, why does she hate you?" ”

Mrs. Leng said helplessly: "Hey, I am also to blame for this......"

Leng Yantong's mother died eighteen years ago, Leng Yantong was only twelve years old at the time, and the pain she endured can be imagined.

After her mother's death, Leng Yantong lived with her father, Leng Yi was just a member of the secret department at the time, and his usual work was very busy, plus Leng Yantong also reached her menstrual period, in order to find someone to take care of Leng Yantong, Leng Yi got along with Shao Lingling, who was widowed.

Shao Lingling was only thirty years old at the time, and Leng Yi was already forty years younger, this young wife and old husband were already gossiped about, and this Leng Yi didn't mention marriage for a long time, so Shao Lingling was a little impatient.

In the end, Leng Yi made a marriage with Shao Lingling after his wife's anniversary.

Leng Yantong did not object to this, but what she didn't expect was that Shao Lingling threw away all Leng Yantong's mother's things after entering the Leng family, and in the end, Leng Yi was still on Shao Lingling's side, so Leng Yantong completely turned her face with the two.

Shao Lingling said helplessly: "Actually, your Uncle Leng and I also did this at that time to avoid Leng Yantong's influence on the growth of things, we didn't really want to do anything." At that time, Yantong had to talk to her mother's portrait every day when she got up and went to bed, and we were afraid of her...... Hey......"

Chen Fengxi nodded silently, and said calmly: "Auntie, don't be too sad, isn't Yantong already back?" This shows that she understands these things too. She should have forgiven you, but she just couldn't cross that threshold in her heart. ”

Shao Lingling said bitterly: "She didn't come back because she forgave us, but because of you." Your Uncle Leng knew that this girl stayed in Qingyun and refused to leave for you, so he told her all about your situation, and she was willing to accept your Uncle Leng's arrangement. Your Uncle Leng knows her thoughts, and in order to make her happy, he specially arranged a marriage for her that is not like a marriage. But she usually ignored us. Your Uncle Leng is also old, and it will be time to retire in a few years, he wants to take advantage of his own usefulness to help Yantong dredge up the relationship, except for being good to you, she can say a few words to your Uncle Leng, usually she doesn't speak at all. ”

Chen Fengxi said embarrassedly: "Let you say that, I really don't know whether I should be happy or sorry." ”

Shao Lingling said very sincerely: "Don't be sorry, Yantong can go home because of you, otherwise, we won't be able to call her back." Xiao Chen, I heard your Uncle Leng say that you have a lot of ways, can you see if you can help us think of a way? ”

Chen Fengxi said with a look of embarrassment: "This ...... There is a way, but ......"

Shao Lingling saw that Chen Fengxi was squeaking and not speaking, so she said anxiously: "No matter what the method is, as long as Yantong can live a good life with us!" ”

Chen Fengxi smiled awkwardly: "Then I said it...... Don't be angry! ”

Shao Lingling shouted in a cool voice: "You just say it! ”

Chen Fengxi leaned forward mysteriously and whispered: "Auntie, you are like this, you will come into the house to discuss with Yantong in a while, and you said that it is so late, is it for me to stay at home for the night." ”

Hearing this, Shao Lingling's brows tightened.

"Auntie, if you don't want to, forget it, I just wanted to say, this way...... It's a bit ......."

"Silly boy, how could Auntie say you, Auntie was just thinking about how I hadn't thought of this solution earlier. This girl is already so obvious, why didn't I see it! You're waiting here! ”

Shao Lingling didn't mean to be the slightest bit unwilling, and after sorting out her thoughts, she knocked on Leng Yantong's door.

This woman, once she tastes the taste of the forbidden fruit, it will be out of control.

Leng Yantong entered the house not because she didn't want to see her stepmother, but because she hurriedly prepared in the house, so that when Chen Fengxi came in for a while, she would do what she wanted.

So as soon as she heard the door knocking, Leng Yantong hurriedly opened the door excitedly.

When she saw that the knocker was Shao Lingling, the smile on Leng Yantong's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by an impatient look: "What are you doing here?" ”

Shao Lingling squeezed into the room patiently, and after closing the door, she whispered: "You kid is really, you are hiding in the house when this sweetheart comes to the house, how can you let me talk to Xiao Chen?" ”

Leng Yantong said without thinking: "If you don't know how to say it, don't say it!" ”

Shao Lingling said with a smile: "This girl, why is she so stupid!" What time is it? It's almost ten o'clock, do you want to keep Xiao Chen at home for the night? ”

Leng Yantong said with a blue gleam: "My dad agreed to keep him at home for the night?" ”

Shao Lingling said with a smile: "Your father and I have always been outside his home and inside my home, who can stay at home, I have the final say, not him." ”

Leng Yantong asked suspiciously, "Are you really willing to do this?" You're not afraid to make your neighbors look at the joke? ”

Shao Lingling said earnestly: "Silly girl, what is more ridiculous than our family of three eating and passing our own lives?" As long as you can be happy, I am willing to do anything. ”

"Great, I'll sue Chen Fengxi!" Leng Yantong deliberately didn't answer Shao Lingling's words, and prepared to go out to leave Chen Fengxi.

Shao Lingling grabbed her and said with a smile: "This kid, why is he so stupid? Can such a thing be said explicitly? No matter how much you like him, you can't be so obvious. Didn't you make him think you weren't reserved enough? ”

Leng Yantong said thoughtfully: "It seems that this is the truth, so what should I do?" ”

Shao Lingling said mysteriously: "After a while, I'll talk to him for a while, you call me at eleven o'clock, I'll pretend to answer the phone and go out to pick up your father, and then let him wait at home, what to do next, don't let me teach you!" ”

"Comrade Shao, you are so cunning! You wouldn't have deceived my dad like that, would you? Leng Yantong's face showed a malicious smile.

Seeing Leng Yantong's smiling face, Shao Lingling was a little excited and didn't know what to say, she hurriedly said: "This girl, what are you talking about, I'm not doing it for your good!" Your dad and I made an organizational decision at the time, and you know that if you don't get married and have no sex, your dad won't be able to move forward. Okay, don't talk about that, you're ready to prepare, call me in a moment. ”

As she spoke, Shao Lingling walked out of the door.

As soon as Shao Lingling left, Leng Yantong's face blossomed, and she lay on the bed with her mobile phone.

Soon, she found out a rather strict problem, she didn't have Shao Lingling's phone at all!

"This is my number! Aunt Shao. ”

Just when Leng Yantong didn't know what to do, Shao Lingling took the initiative to send her mobile phone number.

After hesitating for a moment, Leng Yantong finally sent a text message back to Shao Lingling.

"Thank you."

When she saw these two words, Shao Lingling's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Chen Fengxi hurriedly said, "Aunt Shao, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's just that Yantong has never said anything like this to me. Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll go to your Uncle Leng in a while. Before I go, in order to thank you, I also say something that I shouldn't have told you in the first place. This superior leader likes obedient subordinates. This cross-level leader, especially those with a particularly high span, likes capable subordinates. You are so far away from the capital, what you should do is to do practical things, not listen to tasks! ”
