When Liu Qiwen saw Chief He, tears fell down before she could say anything.
He Zhonghan asked Liu Cuicui to pour a glass of iced "Holy Soda" (which was a very fashionable drink at the time) for Liu Qiwen, and signaled Liu Qiwen not to be anxious and speak slowly.
Liu Qiwen was still speechless, but she cried even harder.
Liu Cuicui had no choice but to pull her into her small office and let her "calm down" there.
In fact, this was completely a countermeasure agreed upon by the two of them. The script goes like this: When Liu Qiwen saw Chief He, she said nothing and just cried. After she finished crying, she still cried but didn't speak.
Because she couldn't speak, and once she spoke, she had to talk about her brother's affairs. With her brother's problem at the front, Chief He would have obstacles in dealing with Weng Bailing.
If Liu Qiwen doesn't say anything, then only Liu Cuicui will speak for her.
After all, Liu Cuicui was the third party. She could pretend not to know the underlying reasons for this matter and insist that it was Weng Bailing who was up to no good.
This is how the script goes on.
After Liu Cuicui settled down with Liu Qiwen, she returned to Chief He's office, and then she said exactly what they had discussed.
He Zhonghan frowned as he listened. There was a knot in his heart that he could not untie. He did not believe that Weng Bailing had such courage and dared to touch Lu Ming's secretary.
If Weng Bailing really had this evil intention, why didn't Liu Qiwen tell Lu Ming?
In Shanghai, Weng Bailing was no match for Lu Ming, not to mention that he stretched his hands too far and ate from the bowl while looking at the pot.
He Zhonghan asked: "Does Lu Ming know about this?"
Liu Cuicui immediately understood the implication of the officer's message and immediately replied: "Liu Qiwen refused to tell Officer Lu about this matter."
"Why is this happening? The commander has the responsibility to protect his secretary. Besides, Lu Ming is not a soft persimmon." He Zhonghan said calmly.
Liu Cuicui raised her eyebrows and said: "There is a bad trend at Shanghai Station, which was created by Weng Bailing. He secretly slandered Secretary Liu and said that she had an affair with Chief Lu. This move was very vicious, and Secretary Liu was cured."
"If it's a rumor, why should Secretary Liu be afraid?" He Zhonghan continued to dig deeper.
"Sir, don't you know? Chief Lu and his fiancée have decided to get married in the second half of this year. If Secretary Liu drags Chief Lu into this matter at this time, what will Chief Lu do?" Liu Cuicui said.
"Well, that's a question. I also heard that Lu Ming is getting married, and I might ask General Wen Bai to be his witness." He Zhonghan said with a faint smile.
"This time Chief Lu was brought to Nanjing, and there seemed to be another obstacle, so Secretary Liu felt even more scared. If something really happened, Chief Lu would not be able to protect her," Liu Cuicui said.
"This is because you are overthinking it. I can tell you right now that Commander Lu is fine and not a single hair will fall off. I say this, so you can rest assured." He Zhonghan nodded.
"Sir, you also know that Chief Lu has a bad temper and a very stubborn character. Once he finds out that Weng Bailing has such evil intentions, won't Shanghai Station be in trouble?" Liu Cuicui reminded.
"Well, you are quite right about this. We really can't tell Lu Ming about this matter for the time being. We should hide it from him first and wait until I have a chance to warn Weng Bailing." He Zhonghan looked a little more serious.
Liu Cuicui smiled charmingly and said, "Then I'll tell Secretary Liu and let her go back without fear. Is that okay, sir?"
"Well, you can tell him that I will not allow the cadres of the Fuxing Society to do anything extraordinary, otherwise they will be punished by military law." He Zhonghan's voice was low, but his tone was firm.
When Liu Cuicui heard this, she immediately returned to her small office happily.
When Liu Qiwen returned to Jinling Hotel, she originally wanted to invite Lu Ming out for a drink. She was very happy today and accomplished a big event, but when she came back she saw a room full of people, and her plan was disrupted.
At this moment, Liu Qiwen closed the curtains tightly, took a shower and put on pajamas. She stood in front of the full-length mirror in the room, looking at herself back and forth, feeling sorry for herself.
Compared with Miss Mingzhu, my skin seems not white enough, my figure is not perfect enough, I am a little short, my hair is not thick enough, my hair is not black enough, my thighs are a little thicker, my waist is not thin enough, anyway, everything is so different.
A little bit.
No wonder Commander Lu was not moved no matter how provocative he was. With such a beautiful fiancée, who would want to deal with the vulgar fans outside?
It can be said that she originally wanted to impress Lu Ming with her beauty, but now she is completely heartbroken.
But it was impossible for her to give up. No matter whether Commander Lu loved her or not, she still loved Commander Lu. That Miss Dujuan seemed to have the same intention as her.
She didn't know how long she stood in front of the full-length mirror. Finally, her feet were numb and she finally came to her senses.
She just lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She didn't think too much. She had forced herself not to think about it, but her heart was so messed up that she couldn't fall asleep.
When she finally felt sleepy, she found that it was already past five o'clock in the morning and she couldn't sleep anymore.
Lu Ming got up after sleeping for a while. This was a habit he had developed over the years and had formed a biological clock. No matter how late he went to bed, he would definitely wake up at six o'clock in the morning.
He got up and took a shower, washed his face, and brushed his teeth. Mingzhu was still sleeping soundly in bed.
He did not wake up Mingzhu, but quietly went downstairs to have breakfast.
He didn't call anyone else. He finished dinner too late last night, so he had nothing to do, so he just let these people sleep all morning.
As soon as he reached the stairs, Du Juan's door suddenly opened. Du Juan came out, stuck out her tongue at him, and then came over to give him a hug.
"Why are you up so early?" Du Juan asked in a low voice.
"I went for a walk, but when I woke up I couldn't fall asleep."
"Then I'll accompany you." Du Juan thought this was a rare opportunity.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Lu Ming asked.
"I don't want to sleep in anymore. I have completely eliminated this problem in the factory." Du Juan said shyly.
"That's a good thing. You used to be a famous lazy cat." Lu Ming scratched the tip of her straight nose.
The cuckoo also smiled.
In fact, it wasn't just her. The girls who lived in the Changsan study apartment didn't get up before lunch, nor did they go to bed before midnight. They lived a night life.
The two took the elevator downstairs. In the elevator, Du Juan hugged him tightly again, and then said in his ear: "I miss you so much. I have always missed you."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "I know, you don't need to tell me."
"Then do you miss me?"
"Don't think about it every day, think about it every three days." Lu Ming teased her.
"You have no conscience. I miss you every day. It's almost becoming a drug addiction and I can't quit." Du Juan sighed.
Lu Ming didn't know how to answer, so he could only laugh naively.
Now he neither rejects Du Juan nor officially accepts her. He still hopes that Du Juan will go his own way and live his own life, instead of being a mistress or lover.
Does Lu Ming love Du Juan?
He doesn't know it himself. It's a bit reluctant to say he loves her, but he just likes her very much.
But no matter what happened to Du Juan, as long as she said hello, he would stand in front of her. Is this love? Lu Ming was also very confused.
Du Juan and Liu Qiwen are completely different.
For Lu Ming, Liu Qiwen is his secretary, and this is a very clear boundary.
It's not that Liu Qiwen is not beautiful enough to impress him, but Lu Ming has seen too many beauties and has almost no interest in them, resulting in aesthetic fatigue.
Liu Qiwen's teasing and trolling of him were nothing to Lu Ming. When he was in the Fengyue circle, he often faced such harassment and was used to it.
"Qiwen is a good girl, but her life experience is quite pitiful. You should take more care of her in the future and stop being bullied." Du Juan said, having nothing to say.
"Don't worry, no one dares to bully my secretary." Lu Ming said in a confident tone.
"You still have the nerve to say that you are like this now." Du Juan covered her mouth and laughed.
"Hey, you've learned so badly that you don't pick up any pot. It wasn't like this before." Lu Ming smiled dryly.
"Then do you like me as I was before or as I am now?"
"I like all of them."
"No, this is too tactful to answer. I can only choose one." Du Juan quit.
"Then I still like you as you are now. You have a kind of energy in you now. I'm afraid I don't even know it. You used to be weak and weak, and that kind of beauty was unhealthy. Your beauty now is very healthy. It looks like you can be an industrialist in the future."
Lu Ming laughed.
"I hope so. I'll try my best. I'm doing this all for you." Du Juan smiled.
"I appreciate it," Lu Ming said, cupping his fists.
After the two walked out of the stairs, someone was already following them. They were following them blatantly, not secretly following them.
Du Juan didn't think anything of it, and Lu Ming didn't care either, so he just followed a few bodyguards behind him.
After he walked to the street, he found two brand-new cars parked on the street, with people inside. People wandering on the street started to stand up when they saw them coming out.
Lu Ming knew at a glance that this was a standard operation in the Fuxing Club training class, and the other party did not hide it from him, but it was a protective measure. Of course, it could also be called surveillance, depending on how you interpret it.
Lu Ming took Du Juan to the end of the street, and then walked back. The two of them talked while walking.
Everyone listening around couldn't help but laugh. This officer got up early in the morning to talk about love. But doesn't this officer have a beautiful fiancée at home? Why is there another new face?
The only information given to them was Sheng Muyi, Yuan Ziyuan, and Yuan Mingzhu. These were the targets they wanted to protect. Zhang Ziyang, Cai Lian, and Du Juan were not on the list at all.
One person sighed in his heart: Look at this life, he has a lot of money, but he is still under house arrest and continues to fall in love with the beautiful woman he pursues.
This is how people live, unlike them. They have to stay here in the middle of the night and endure the bites of mosquitoes and insects.
Lu Ming remembered the people who were protecting people on the street, and roughly counted them. Together with the people sitting in the car, there should be seven or eight. It seemed that Dai Li was afraid that something would happen to them. If it was just surveillance, there would be no need to do so.
How many people?
Isn’t it a waste to complain all day about insufficient funds?
