Tao Guangming sighed: "You might not believe me if I tell you. Since I told you that yesterday, I haven't had the courage to see her. She said she wanted to come to my house to see me, but I refused and asked the art troupe to recall her.
Go to work. She won’t have time to question me anymore.”
Li Wenjun laughed angrily: "How did you..." For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Think about it, Tao Guangming is definitely not willing to lie to Ji Rushi, after all, he likes Ji Rushi so much. If Tao Guangming goes to see Ji Rushi now, his secret will definitely be exposed, and then Ji Rushi will investigate her.
Ask out.
So after much deliberation, Tao Guangming decided that it would be better for him to avoid seeing Ji Rushi.
Li Wenjun was silent for a moment and asked again: "Has Sister Hui found out?"
Tao Guangming smiled bitterly: "If I tell you, you won't believe it. She must have found out, because she hasn't asked me about Ji Rushi recently, and she hasn't talked about it anymore. The two siblings of us have tacitly pretended that we haven't found out.
I don’t know about this. This is the first time in the more than 20 years since childhood that the two of us have acted stupid together like this."
Li Wenjun was silent again. After thinking about it, this was indeed the only way to avoid embarrassment.
Otherwise, knowing that the other party went to check on Ji Rushi would be equivalent to knowing the other party's intention.
Li Wenjun asked again: "Sister Hui never mentioned Captain Ji?"
Tao Guangming: "No. We don't have either, so let's just pretend it didn't happen."
Li Wenjun pondered for a moment and asked, "Will Leader Tao also go check on Captain Ji?"
Tao Guangming replied: "Probably not. Otherwise he would have talked to me or my sister about it."
This matter is really troublesome. If you tell Tao Luyao about Ji Rushi's identity, will Ji Rushi think that Tao Guangming has taken a fancy to her and come after her? If you don't tell Tao Luyao, will you have to keep it secret until Ji Rushi
Rushi was misunderstood and disappointed by Tao Guangming's neglect and then became disheartened?
Li Wenjun replied: "Brother, I will see Leader Tao tomorrow and we will act accordingly. Don't be anxious."
Tao Guangming cheered up: "Yeah, I understand. Otherwise, I'll pick you up at 8:40 tomorrow. I'll honk the horn when I arrive and you can come out. I won't get out of the car and stay at your house."
Li Wenjun thought for a while and said, "Okay."
On this hot day, he rode his bicycle bumpily and was covered in sweat. It was inappropriate to see Tao Luyao again.
-----
Li Wenjun got up early in the morning, went to the closet after dinner, found a decent 80% new outfit, put it on, and paired it with black pants and black leather shoes.
This wardrobe was recently made by Li Changming according to the drawings given by Li Wenjun. This wardrobe is made of sliding doors, but Li Changming made the later metal rollers and grooves into wood, which makes it more refined and elegant.
Li Wenjun likes it very much.
While Li Wenjun was buttoning his buttons, he was wondering whether he should bring some gifts to see Tao Luyao.
After much deliberation, he decided to forget it. Because no matter what he gave, Tao Luyao would not care about it, not to mention, it would cause unnecessary trouble.
Gu Zhanyan was secretly surprised when she saw him like this. This was the first time she saw Li Wenjun pay so much attention to his appearance.
To be honest, he is even more formally dressed now than on his wedding day.
Li Wenjun seemed to have read through her thoughts, smiled and replied: "I want to see Tao Guangming's father."
Gu Zhanyan suddenly realized: "Okay."
Li Wenjun said: "I will come back after meeting him, so I will have lunch at home."
Ever since the fugitives ambush them that day, Li Wenjun would tell Gu Zhanyan about his itinerary every time he went out, so as not to worry Gu Zhanyan if he came back late.
Gu Zhanyan nodded: "Okay. We'll wait for you to come back for lunch."
Diandian ran over and tugged at the corner of Li Wenjun's clothes.
Li Wenjun leaned down and kissed his cheek: "Dad, come back soon."
Li Wenjun felt like he had a piece of candy in his heart, it was so sweet, but he said: "It would be great if my mother would do the same."
Diandian raised his head and looked at Gu Zhanyan.
Gu Zhanyan looked at Li Wenjun with a mixture of anger and laughter.
Li Wenjun looked back with a smile and pointed at his cheek.
Gu Zhanyan could only stand on tiptoes and quickly touched Li Wenjun's cheek with her lips.
Li Wenjun suddenly felt that half of his body was numb.
"Beep……"
A car horn sounded outside.
Tao Guangming is already here, reminding Li Wenjun to come out.
Li Wenjun hurriedly kissed Dian Dian and Gu Zhanyan on the cheeks, turned around and walked out quickly, and then jumped into the car under the envious or jealous eyes of his neighbors.
"I'd better bring a bicycle, otherwise I won't be able to come back later."
Tao Guangming stepped on the accelerator and the car drove off: "No need."
Li Wenjun didn't know why he said no. Thinking about it, he probably wanted to send him back, so he didn't ask in detail.
It is estimated that Tao Guangming doesn't have the time to care about such trivial matters.
Li Wenjun asked: "What does Leader Tao want to talk to me about? Can you reveal it?"
Tao Guangming glanced at him sideways: "What? You have done too many bad things and you feel guilty?"
The corner of Li Wenjun's mouth twitched: "I feel guilty for something. I'm afraid that I'll spill the beans later and expose the bad things you did."
Tao Guangming snorted: "I am a good and upright comrade. I can expose any bad things."
Li Wenjun touched his chin: "Let me rationalize it. There are quite a lot of things to think about. I might not be able to finish them all in one day."
Tao Guangming muttered: "I shouldn't argue with you."
Li Wenjun smiled: "Don't be nervous. I just saw that you were too nervous, so I teased you to relax a little."
Tao Guangming said: "I'm so nervous. The person my dad wants to interview is you. I'm a supporting role today."
------
When Li Wenjun arrived at Tao Guangming's home, he found that Tao Guanghui was also there.
"Comrade Tao Guanghui." Li Wenjun specially greeted Tao Guanghui in the most formal and distant way, so as not to make Tao Luyao uncomfortable by calling him so affectionately as usual.
Tao Guanghui was also much more serious than usual and nodded: "Go up, the leader is waiting for you in the study."
Li Wenjun glanced at Tao Guangming, nodded and went up.
In fact, he was not afraid. Many of the leaders he met later had a much higher status than Tao Luyao.
He was just a little nervous because of his relationship with Tao Guangming.
To put it bluntly, I was also nervous about Tao Guangming.
The door to the study room was open, and Tao Luyao was looking at something behind the desk, very intently.
Li Wenjun knocked on the door lightly and bowed slightly, neither humble nor overbearing: "Leader, I'm here."
Tao Luyao raised his head and waved hurriedly: "Oh, Wen Jun is here, come in, come in, close the door."
Tao Luyao seemed to be in a good mood. Moreover, he greeted him with the affectionate name used by an elder to address a younger generation. Most likely, Tao Luyao's conversation with him was a good thing.
Li Wenjun thought so, went in and closed the door.
