As Liang Zhijie drove into the central garden, Zhao Yang returned to the office with a notebook for the morning meeting.

As soon as he pulled the chair away, a hand was put on his shoulder from behind: "Director Zhao, why are you down!" I think we did a good job in the last stage, at least bringing practical benefits to the hospital. As for the dean's criticism, it will pass after listening to it, don't take it to heart, it's easy to get depressed. ”

"You kid!" Zhao Yang turned around and patted Xiao Xu with his notebook. "I'm also very arrogant at your age, and I will fire my boss's squid if I don't agree with you. Not now, I know how to be a man with my tail between my legs. ”

"The sorrow of a middle-aged man." Xiao Xu returned to his office with a sad face: "What do you say this marriage has brought to men?" I am 26 years old this year, and my mother urges her to marry every day, and she can't wait for me to get married tomorrow and give her a grandson the day after tomorrow. But when I look at her and my father, and then look at you, Director Zhao, I don't have any idea of getting married. What is Marriage? Tolerate each other, you and me? Wrong, marriage is that you brush the pot and I wash the dishes, you sweep the floor and I take out the garbage, as long as one thing doesn't go well, the two of them have to quarrel. In addition to firewood, rice, oil and salt, there are also raising children, and I feel a headache when I think about it. ”

"Not only firewood, rice, oil and salt, raising children, but also housing and car loans." Another married man in the office sighed: "I'm okay, my parents bought our house with all the money." I remember that Director Zhao's house is a loan, right? Then Director Zhao was under even more pressure. ”

"It's a loan." Zhao Yang sat down and turned on the computer: "This mortgage doesn't seem to be much, but the pressure is really not a little bit big when you have to repay it every month, the key is that you don't dare to rest, once you take a break, the next month's mortgage will be useless." ”

"How many children do you have, Director? What does my sister-in-law do? ”

"Sister-in-law is our peer, you haven't seen it late when you joined the company, but we have seen several of us, and she looks quite beautiful." The colleague squeezed his eyes at Zhao Yang as he spoke: "Actually, it is not easy for men and women, men have to go to work to earn money, and women have to go to work to earn money." Men can walk outside after work, and women have to go home to take care of the children, wash clothes and cook. When I meet a husband like us who knows how to be considerate of his wife, the pressure is still less, and if I meet an unreliable person, it will be even more difficult than our men. ”

"Women's friend, Brother Li, you are a woman's friend, your wife must like you very much." Xiao Xu looked at the other side: "My mother's heart is very big, she told me that as long as a man does not cheat after marriage, he is a good man." If this man still knows how to take money from the family, he is a good husband. If he still knows how to help his wife share some housework and take care of the children, then he is a good man. Although my dad did it all, my mom was far more tired than my dad could have imagined. I feel sorry for my mother, but I think I can't be a better husband than my father, so I am responsible for myself and my future wife and children by not getting married. Really, I don't think a man like me is suitable for marriage at all, and getting married is tantamount to harming others. ”

Xiao Xu's words made Zhao Yang fall into deep thought, although he knew that they didn't know his real marital status, and even mistook Zhu Lili for his wife, but he always felt that those words were talking about him and alluding to his past practices.

In fact, Wei Lai also told him similar things, but he couldn't listen to them at that time. Wei Lai was right, he never really considered a wife and a mother for her. When he was with Julie, he thought he was right, and even if he betrayed his marriage, he could find countless reasons for himself. Looking back, he felt that a man like him was not suitable for marriage at all, and Wei Lai met him and married him, which was the biggest misfortune in her life.

Thinking of this, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Wei Lai: "I'm sorry, I apologize to you for everything I did in the past!" ”

He thought that Wei Lai would not reply to him, after all, the things he had done before were enough to make her hate him and resent him, but Wei Lai replied, still like in the past, and replied in seconds when she saw his text messages - in the past! At this point, there is no point in discussing right and wrong!

Zhao Yang stared at the text message for a while, tapped his finger, and sent another line of messages: "I want to meet the child, okay?" ”

The moment he pressed the send button, Zhao Yang's heart hung in the air.

He knew that Wei Lai might refuse, and he was afraid that Wei Lai would refuse, but he thought to himself: Maybe she would agree, after all, she was a soft-hearted woman who loved him deeply.

Wei Lai did not refuse directly, but he did not directly agree, but replied with a negotiable sentence: "When the child gets out of school, I will ask his opinion." ”

Zhao Yang breathed a sigh of relief, opened the drawer on the desk and put the notebook in. In the drawer was a small white medicine bottle, unscrewed, containing a dozen pills. He poured it out, counted it, and put the pills back in again.

"Director, what good things are you hiding?" Xiao Xu stretched his neck to look, and was glared back by Zhao Yang's eyes.

In the central garden, Liang Zhijie checked the monitoring in the monitoring room under the banner of looking for a ghost-faced person, and the one who accompanied her to the monitoring room happened to be Manager Chen mentioned by Liu Zhihong.

He is from Chengguan Town, Mengxian County, and Zhu Lili is a classmate in primary school, and he has sat at the same table for more than half a year. Zhu Lili had good grades when he was in elementary school, and he went directly to Experimental No. 1 Middle School in junior high school. If it weren't for the reunion of his elementary school classmates, he wouldn't have known that he lived in the same neighborhood as Julie. Julili's house was a demolition house for her mother's family, and it was written in her father's name, and even if he had seen the name of the head of the household at work, he didn't think about Julili.

Regarding Zhu Lili's personal life, he prevaricated on the grounds that he did not know and it was inconvenient to discuss it, but for the ghost-faced man mentioned by Liang Zhijie, he claimed to have seen it near Zhu Lili's house, and it was just before Zhu Lili was killed.

It was a month before Julie was killed, and there was a dispute upstairs that day, and he and another property worker were in charge of coordinating it. The old lady who made the trouble was very powerful, and pushed him into the stairwell in two or three strokes. He was about to reason with the old lady, when he looked up and saw a "ghost" standing in the corridor below!

He was immediately frightened, but fortunately he was just scared and didn't shout. When he looked at it again, he saw that it was a plastic model, but it was dressed as a "ghost".

The "ghost" stood at the corner of the stairs, with a disheveled hair, a pale face, bright red lips and no eyes, and a piece of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" was also worn.

Manager Chen had seen that movie, and he was especially impressed by the Chu Renmei in it. Xu was scared when he watched a movie, and when he became an adult, he would shudder when he heard that name, and he always felt that there was a yin wind blowing behind him.
