Chapter 13 On the Matter of Trust
Of course, all this is just Liang Yuanque's ethereal thoughts.
He let out a sigh of relief, forcing himself to forget about the episodes that only appeared in the book.
With his own ability, he has actually dealt with many big families, he has seen families that are more prosperous than the Shen family, and he himself is also from a big family, so he still has a certain understanding of the style of this rich and noble family.
Under normal circumstances, in order to save face and kill their daughters, the more high-ranking families can not do it, but it is some small households, or families at the lower levels of society, who will backhand their daughters to death when their daughters are just said two nonsense words, this situation is ostensibly that I am trying to save face, but in fact I am venting my anger, these people who murder their own flesh and blood, just because there is no way to do anything to others, the only thing that can be harmed is only their own children.
But big families are different, they generally have a certain amount of power, and if they don't have much power, they also have the money to pave their connections, so they have more options to solve.
Take the Shen family as an example, if Shen Yuelan's good friend is a poor boy with no name and no surname, maybe he is still rushing to eat his own household, and Master Shen is more likely to let this poor boy disappear into this world silently than kill his own daughter.
If Master Shen found out that Shen Yuelan's good friend was Young Master Du, then they were all figures with heads and faces in Liucheng, and they estimated that the three families would have to sit down quietly and discuss a strategy that could save the faces of the three families, but no matter what the strategy was, it would not be to let Shen Yuelan die to change her reputation.
The sudden death of a well-worked and carefully cultivated celebrity will inevitably cause an uproar like now, no matter which aspect you consider, it is the next policy.
On Liang Yuanque's side, his mind was spinning rapidly, and Zhuang Youjie on the other side had changed from the initial boredom to concentrating on dealing with the hunger that constantly prompted him in his empty stomach.
Young Master Zhuang regretted it very much at this time, why didn't he eat breakfast in the morning, he quietly glanced at Liang Yuanque, who was still frowning at this time and looking through the file, as if he was thinking hard, which made him dare not make a sound to interrupt him, and Inspector Chang, who was sitting on the sofa on the other side, held his forehead with a fist with one hand, his eyes were squinted, and he seemed to be thinking about something, of course, he might have fallen asleep directly.
Zhuang Youjie fought against the hunger that surged up and attacked his nerves, and his mind kept thinking about what to eat later.
Since he returned to Liucheng yesterday, he has not had a good meal, there is a famous restaurant in Liucheng that their dealer has a stake in, and he particularly likes the signature dishes, and when he goes to school in other places, he often thinks about when he will have time to come back to eat.
Just as he was thinking about it, Inspector Chang, who was holding his head on the side, suddenly nodded his head heavily, and then opened his confused eyes, it seemed that he had indeed fallen asleep just now.
"What time is it?" He rubbed his eyes, and then asked Zhuang Youjie on the side.
Zhuang Youjie looked at the wall clock in the office and reported him a time.
Inspector Chang calmed down for a while, stood up after coming to his senses, and said to Zhuang Youjie, "Young Master Zhuang, the meal is almost over, let's go eat." ”
Zhuang Youjie, who was hungry, heard this "go to eat" was like hearing Xianle, and subconsciously wanted to agree, but then he thought of Liang Yuanque again, looked at him, and found that he was still flipping through the file, and he had no intention of getting up.
Zhuang Youjie is really going to cry, can you bear it so much? Don't you still have low blood sugar? Let's go to dinner!
Liang Yuanque was motionless, Zhuang Youjie felt that they were currently in the same boat, and it was not good to act separately, so he could only hold back his emotions and smile at Inspector Chang, "Forget it, you go, I'm not hungry." ”
When Inspector Chang heard him say this, he politely instructed them to stay in the office and not to wander around the police station, and then left by himself, it seemed that he was also very hungry, and his steps were much faster than usual.
Zhuang Youjie watched the people leave and gently closed the office door.
As soon as he closed the door, Liang Yuanque behind him spoke, "Young Master Zhuang is very powerful, he didn't eat in the morning, and he is not hungry until now." ”
Zhuang Youjie thought to himself, not hungry? I'm not hungry for your chair legs!
He said tentatively to Liang Yuanque, "You see that it's all here, doesn't Mr. Liang have anything to eat?" ”
Liang Yuanque raised his head from the file and glanced at Zhuang Youjie, who was in high spirits, "I just waited for you to agree and followed, but I didn't expect you to refuse?" ”
You! Even though Zhuang Youjie has been reading the sage books for so many years, he has been reminding himself to pay attention to his upbringing, and now he can't help but burst into foul language.
"Why didn't you tell Inspector Chang just now!" Zhuang Youjie was dizzy with hunger, and sat back on the sofa angrily.
"How can I have that face, can we sit in the office, don't you still see your face as Inspector Chang," Liang Yuanque stood up and stretched, "If I ask the Inspector to invite me to dinner, he will only let me get out." ”
Zhuang Youjie held his face and sat on the sofa and thought, if we catch up with Inspector Chang now, we have changed our minds and want to eat, is it too shameless.
Liang Yuanque obviously saw his state from his expression, and chuckled and said to him, "Then let's go out for a meal, and I'll invite you." ”
Zhuang Youjie thought about it, but he said to Liang Yuanque, "Mr. Liang, it stands to reason that you are a guest when you come to Liucheng, or let me invite you, please eat Liucheng's specialties." ”
"Okay, listen to you." Liang Yuanque nodded very dryly in agreement.
Zhuang Youjie was stunned when he heard such a direct answer, the people he knew in the circle he was in in the past all boasted of being knowledgeable, so it was very troublesome, and they had to pull each other two or three times to decide on something like this to invite guests to eat.
He really didn't expect that Liang Yuanque would agree so simply, without being polite at all.
He was stunned, and suddenly felt that this kind of personality and lifestyle was really comfortable.
Young Master Zhuang, who grew up in etiquette and rules, didn't realize that the character he had been forcibly cultivated by the outside world was slowly collapsing under the impact of this little detective.
Young Master Zhuang went out to talk to the brother standing guard at the door, borrowed the phone from the detective's office and made a call to the restaurant where the Zhuang family has a stake, the location of the restaurant in the city, not far from the police station, and it didn't take long for a guy to carry a food box to deliver it.
Liucheng's food is roughly divided into two schools, one is heavy and likes spicy taste, and the other is like Zhuang Youjie's preference, preferring light and fragrant taste, and the signature dishes of the restaurant sent by the guy are of this genre.
As soon as he opened the food box, the seductive fragrance couldn't wait to waft out, and Zhuang Youjie asked the guy to come back to the food box in about two quarters of an hour, and then sent the guy to go first.
He was already fainting from hunger, so he hurriedly took out the plates and bowls inside, there was a small coffee table in the detective's office, Zhuang Youjie put the plates on the small coffee table, and sat in front of the coffee table with Liang Yuanque and moved his chopsticks.
"Is it really good for us to be in someone's office?" Liang Yuanque said to Zhuang Youjie while tasting the vegetables.
"Anyway, I'm already hungry and can't walk," Zhuang Youjie also said while eating, "Wait for Inspector Chang to come back and make amends to him, it's a big deal to write him a note, so that he won't charge money next time he goes to the restaurant for dinner." ”
Liang Yuanque laughed after hearing this, "You feel much better than you did before." ”
"What?" Zhuang Youjie raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled by his words.
"You gave people the impression that you were polite and a little unreal," Liang Yuanque said as he sandwiched a shiny shrimp and put it in his mouth, "but you are very good now, you have needs, you have a temper, and you are a very real young master." ”
In fact, Liang Yuanque expressed this euphemistically, he originally wanted to say that Zhuang Youjie was untrue, but today he is also a very normal person, not very simple.
Maybe what he said was too beautiful, Zhuang Youjie didn't doubt his original intention, felt that he was being praised, and scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed.
"Shall we ask Mr. a question?"
Liang Yuanque ate the meal invited by his employer, where could he disagree, and immediately nodded, "You say, I know everything." ”
"Mr. said trust in the Du family before, is it just because I am your employer?" Zhuang Youjie's eyes were obviously inquisitive.
Liang Yuanque raised his eyebrows, very surprised by his question, he originally thought that this young master would ask if he had found anything about the case, or ask him how he judged that Young Master Du was the person who was dating Miss Lan, but he actually asked such a question.
Liang Yuanque laughed, "Young Master Zhuang, you are really interesting. ”
