Chapter 20: The Family Feast
At this moment, two images flashed in the minds of Guo Min, Guo Huairou and others: the young man in martial arts uniform with a white background and black sides solemnly but calmly shouted "He is coming" to the calm window, and the understatement "He is gone". Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
He's coming, he's gone...... It turned out to be true!
Everyone next to the window looked back in unison, and subconsciously looked at the door, and the figure of the young man in a white background and black martial arts uniform who seemed to appear in front of him and left without care.
"Real people don't show their faces......" After half a day, Guo Min sighed.
Guo Huairou also took a breath, and the words "master fan" jumped out of her heart.
"Team Niu, do you know what that one was called?" Guo Min inquired curiously.
Niu Zhen shook his head, with a blank expression: "Xing Ju only gave me the phone number......"
The dragon sees the head but does not see the end!
............
During the morning exercise, Lou Cheng took the medicinal soup step by step, practiced subtlely, polished his strength, and borrowed Jin Dan again in the end, tried and realized the feeling of "receiving", and gained a different experience from yesterday.
Gou is new, every day is new!
After breakfast, he came to the martial arts hall, and after soaking in the power room for half an hour, Lou Cheng saw Wu Ting yawning and black circles under her eyes.
"Coach Lou, I was so scared that I didn't sleep well last night, you should know, that thing, can you reduce the amount later?" Wu Ting applied pitifully.
Lou Cheng looked at the other students and said with a smile: "I know that your training volume has been reduced by two-thirds today, and in your free time, help me keep an eye on them and correct their movements." ”
Teaching and learning go hand in hand.
"Okay!" Wu Ting didn't expect that not only was she able to apply easily today, but she was also assigned the task of being a "little teacher", and she was very excited and happy.
It wasn't until the training was about to start that she came back to her senses and asked suspiciously, "Coach Lou, you should have been invited, right?
Protecting people is definitely more tired than being protected!
I didn't sleep well all night, and Coach Lou probably didn't sleep all night!
"I was invited. Lou Cheng replied with a smile, "But I slept one night." ”
"Coach, you lie!" Wu Ting chuckled, not believing it.
Yao Ruiwei, Zhang Qiufan and the other students looked at them in confusion, confused about the content of their exchange, and planned to ask Wu Ting when they were resting.
What exactly happened last night?
............
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lou Cheng, who had been tempered again, left the Gushan Martial Arts Hall, turned to the intersection next to him, and boarded Xing Chengwu's SUV.
"Xiaolou, yours. Xing Chengwu reached out and handed over a bulging envelope.
"Uncle Xing, what is this?" Lou Cheng asked confusedly.
Xing Chengwu smiled heartily: "Last night's reward, don't shirk it, this is given by the state, not by me, because the degree of danger is relatively high, and the reward is quite kind." ”
Lou Cheng pinched the thickness of the envelope, judging that it was about eight thousand to ten thousand, for the top professional nine pins, just one night of security, this price is indeed at the crazy level, but thinking about the enemy facing is the seven pins of the Dan realm, it is considered to be within a reasonable range.
Why be humble with the money you have to fight for?
Lou Cheng calmly opened the envelope, took out the red banknote, took a picture with his mobile phone, and sent it to Yan Zheke, who was making up for the tempering in the afternoon, and said with a "snicker":
"We're also earning the country's money!"
Although he can't chat in time, he always wants to share things with his girlfriend.
Director Xing understood the current habit of young people to take pictures, so without saying much, he started the car and drove to the courthouse in the east of the city.
After driving for a while, he asked casually, "Xiaolou, how did you surprise Zhan Xuming last night?" He stayed outside the window for at least a minute...... Niu Zhen, that kid couldn't speak clearly. ”
"Uncle Xing, do you know the 'Cave Enemy Ice Heart' of the Ice Department?" Lou Cheng was quite mature, and he had already guessed that he would encounter such a problem, so he asked in a hurry.
"Yes. Xing Chengwu seemed to suddenly say, "You have practiced the exercises of its derivation?"
Lou Cheng smiled bitterly: "It can't be regarded as practice, you can't use it at all when fighting, only if you are completely quiet, can you barely operate, last night I vaguely found Zhan Xuming approaching, and informed everyone to prepare in advance, well, this probably made Zhan Xuming feel that there was no chance, so he retreated by himself, Uncle Xing, don't tell anyone else this, I still want to keep a hand." ”
"Okay, understood! No wonder Niu Zhen's kid said that you have been sleeping, haha, the future life is terrifying!" Director Xing shook his head and smiled, changing the topic, "Xiaolou, you didn't tell Guo Min what your surname was last night?"
Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly came to his senses: "Uncle Xing, do you know?"
Knowing that Guo Min is his father's boss, he has a choice when arranging!
"Professional habits, professional habits. Director Xing snorted, "Your master and his old man asked me to take care of you, if I don't even know the general situation of your family, how can I take care of you?"
"I just don't think there's any need to deliberately mention it, it would be embarrassing, and if Boss Guo and they knew about this relationship, I wouldn't be able to command it last night. Lou Cheng replied honestly.
"Yes. Xing Chengwu laughed twice, "Fortunately, I only gave Niu Zhen a phone number, and I didn't mention your identity, thinking that if you want, I will say it." ”
Belch...... Lou Cheng was stunned, and when he tasted it carefully, he realized that Director Xing's hand was sleek and spicy, no matter how you looked at it, it didn't leak!
A real old man!
Ten minutes later, Xing Chengwu drove the car into the courthouse and parked next to the back building where no one was around.
As soon as he got off the car, he led Lou Cheng straight into the building, and through a special elevator, he came to the fourth floor.
"Go in, no outsiders. Xing Chengwu pointed to a room at the bottom of the hallway.
Lou Cheng suddenly remembered Wang Xu's fate, his mood couldn't help but be heavy, and he subconsciously exhaled.
"Don't worry too much, to be honest, Wang Xu won't be sentenced too heavily. Xing Chengwu patted him on the shoulder.
Lou Cheng nodded slightly, knocked on the door, waited for a moment, and pushed it away.
The process of testifying was similar to what he expected, there were no bystanders, only the necessary judges and others, who were guided by questions to allow themselves to recount the process from beginning to end.
And Lou Cheng always kept one thing in mind, that is, Director Xing entrusted him to rush over to stop the crime, and as for the rest, he did not hide it.
After some while, he finally heard the sound that he could go out.
When he left the room, the first thing that caught his eye was the bright sun of a July afternoon, with two heavens inside and out.
In the process of silently following Xing Chengwu back to the SUV, Lou Cheng accidentally glanced at Wang Xu's parents who came to hear the trial, they were much older than half a year ago, obviously similar to his parents, but they looked like old men who were almost sixty.
"Hey......" Lou Cheng sighed, leaned back in the passenger seat, and pleaded, "Uncle Xing, can you wait a while before leaving?"
"Okay. Xing Chengwu didn't say much, took his mobile phone, and handled official business.
In the blowing of the air conditioner, Lou Cheng's thoughts fluctuated, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
Now Wang Xu should only be separated by one or two walls from himself, but his fate seems to have been fixed on the bright sunshine and the bleak mist on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
That's life.
............
Time passed minute by minute, Xing Chengwu answered the phone, smiled and said to Lou Chengdao:
"The verdict was pronounced in court, five years. ”
"It's okay......" Lou Cheng exhaled turbid air and let go of half of his heart.
"When I went back, I found someone to watch him in prison, and if he behaved well, he should be able to come out in three years, and he will only be twenty-two or thirteen years old by then, so there is still a lot to do. Xing Chengwu started the car.
"Thank you, Uncle Xing. Lou Cheng sincerely thanked him.
Xing Chengwu smiled and said, "Thank you, it's almost dinner, go directly to my house to eat, I didn't entertain you last time." ”
"Okay. Lou Cheng didn't refuse, nor did he mention Xing Jingjing's question, he only called his father and said that he would go back after dinner.
You can't open any pot without mentioning which pot!
Xing Chengwu had already made arrangements, and after making a phone call, he went straight to Zhuangyuan South Street, and when he led Lou Cheng into the house, the food was almost ready.
"Mom, they're here, it's time to eat. The tall Xing Jingjing tied her hair and shouted to the kitchen.
Lou Cheng changed his shoes and shouted politely, "Hello, senior sister." ”
At the same time, Xing Chengwu blocked his majestic body between the two to resolve his daughter's emotions to the greatest extent.
Xing Jingjing looked at Lou Cheng, not as impatient and cramped as last time, and only said with a cold face:
"Keke mentioned you to me. ”
"That's good, that's good......" Lou Chengdu didn't know what he was talking about.
Is this a preferential treatment for girlfriends' boyfriends?
Seeing that his daughter didn't react much, Xing Chengwu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly instructed her to help serve the food - it's not that he doesn't do things, but he just thinks that if he leaves his daughter and Lou Cheng alone, the harmonious and stable situation will probably explode.
It didn't take long for dinner to start, and Director Xing's wife, Aunt Ding, was quite enthusiastic about Lou Cheng, asking long and short questions, praising and praising them.
Xing Jingjing ate quietly, and said lightly when the atmosphere was at its warmest:
"He has a girlfriend's ......"
“...... How do you know?" Aunt Ding was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion.
When did this girl become so familiar with Xiaolou?
Lou Cheng was taken aback, for fear that this young lady would shake out the matter between herself and Keke if she was unhappy!
Xing Jingjing said with a straight face:
Keke said. ”
Lou Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and then he heard Xing Jingjing add:
"They're classmates. ”
"That's it......" Xing Chengwu and Aunt Ding didn't know whether they were relieved or disappointed.
Just then, the doorbell rang, and the voice echoed gracefully.
"Who?" Xing Chengwu had long been accustomed to sudden visits, shook his head, and walked to the door, while Lou Chengze subconsciously looked over.
The door opened, and he saw two familiar figures, his father Fa Xiao Zhao Zijun, who he had only seen a few days ago, and his wife Huang Qun.
He is the deputy director of the police station, and it is normal to visit Uncle Xing...... Lou Cheng looked back thoughtfully.
Zhao Zijun looked inside and said with a smile: "It's really unfortunate to come, Xingju, you are eating?"
"What do you mean by unfortunate? Just right, Lao Zhao, together, together!" Director Xing warmly entertained.
Zhao Zijun's gaze swept across the dining table, and just as he was about to speak, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he reflected a certain figure, almost forgetting the language he had prepared, until Mrs. Huang Qun pulled him, he came to his senses, and said with a smile: "No need, no need, we have eaten, we just thought that we haven't come to see the old leader for a long time, sit and go, sit and go." ”
"Haha, it's good that you haven't forgotten me, the old leader. Xing Chengwu wanted to lead them to the sofa and sit down, but he saw Zhao Zijun carrying something, so he said with a straight expression, "Old Zhao, what do you mean by this?"
"I, I ......" Director Xing was so powerful that Zhao Zijun couldn't speak for a while.
Xing Chengwu's face slowed down: "Lao Zhao, take these things back, I know your affairs, you are my old subordinate, I will definitely fight for you." ”
"Yes, yes, Director Xing. Zhao Zijun and Huang Qun were told this, they didn't dare to sit for a long time, and immediately left.
Xing Chengwu didn't hold back, watched them leave, and then returned to the dining table, and said with a wry smile: "The director of Feixia Road has retired, and Lao Zhao has a thought, hey, when I was in the sub-bureau, he followed him for several years, and he was quite capable, would I not consider him?"
Lou Cheng smiled and didn't say anything.
............
Out of Director Xing's house, Huang Qun looked at the things in his hand and asked with a weak heart:
"Lao Zhao, that's it?"
"Well, Xing Ju has always been a man of his word, and if he speaks, he will definitely do it. Zhao Zijun turned his mind around the figure he had just seen, frowned suspiciously, and said, "Have you seen the person who had dinner with Xing Ju's family?"
"I didn't dare to look closely. Huang Qun shook his head.
Zhao Zijun took a breath: "It should be Lou Zhisheng's kid......"
How could he be in Xingju's house?
It's still this kind of family dinner!
