When Kangwei and Aunt Wu rushed to the police station, Gu Mengmeng had already been picked up.
The director kept the situation secret, but he also knew that he did not dare to offend the tangled and gloomy handsome officer in front of him.
"Reporter Gu has clearly explained what happened, and it is basically consistent with the comrade's oral account. In this case, she can basically be acquitted and released. Tomorrow we will also communicate with the person who reported the case, and if a reconciliation can be reached, we will do so in private
It’s taken care of,” the director said.
At this moment, the policeman who was handling the case from the hospital came back and complained as he entered the door.
"It's all nonsense! I reported the case myself and then said it was a misunderstanding and asked for the case to be withdrawn. Let's make this trip in vain. I think that woman is probably having a mental illness!"
The director was startled after hearing this, and then he became happy.
He slapped the table and held Conway's hand tightly.
"That's it. You can go back and have a peaceful sleep with Reporter Gu. The person who reported the crime is no longer pursuing the case, so there won't be any more problems."
This is the best outcome, isn't it?
But on the way to take Aunt Wu to the hospital, Conway felt that everything had become unpredictable.
He understands Gu Mengmeng, this is not the result she wants. She does not want to use Liu Chanhui's transformation to prove her innocence. What she wants is the truth, and she wants to use moral and legal standards to exchange for her damaged reputation and pride.
.
It was like she fell into the enemy's trap and was injured, but was let go by the enemy. The enemy played a trick of mercy and won praise from the world, but she could only secretly lick her wounds in the dark, losing her
Opportunity to strike back at the enemy.
"Awei, go back and coax Mengmeng. Aunt Wu feels really bad when she sees her like that." Before getting out of the car, Aunt Wu put the lunch box she had prepared on his driver's seat and warned him carefully.
"Well... Aunt Wu, thank you for your hard work. If anything happens to my mother, please call me." It's not that he doesn't understand filial piety and didn't take care of his mother during her illness. He really couldn't worry about Gu Mengmeng at home.
"Your brother is in the hospital. You can go back in peace. I am here." Aunt Wu still looked at him with such kind and loving eyes, as if she was a child, holding him in her arms when he was wronged and had nowhere to talk.
Soft words of comfort in his arms.
On the way back to Huating.
He called home.
After a while, no one answered. He called her cell phone again, and this time the call went through, but there was still no answer.
After half an hour's journey, his white car drove into the community in just 20 minutes.
Outside, the strong wind mixed with the dust from the nearby construction site made it difficult to breathe. In the biting cold wind, Conway walked quickly into the corridor door. On the 21st floor, their home was dark and quiet at the moment, without any sound.
He tried to make another call while changing his shoes.
A funny ringtone rang in the bedroom. His heart suddenly relaxed, and with a movement of his fingers, he turned on the light in the foyer. Under her feet, her dark brown calfskin short boots were neatly placed on the shoe rack. Looking at them, Conway
The corners of his mouth could not help but gradually curved.
This silly girl.
After suffering so much grievance, I can still stick to the good habits I have developed over the years.
"Mengmeng?..." He called out, but there was no reply.
His heart suddenly rose, and he couldn't help but raise his voice and shout: "Mengmeng!...Are you there?" The answer to him was still dead silence.
A deep sense of fear suddenly surged in his heart, as if he knew he was about to lose an extremely valuable rare treasure. He quickly walked into the bedroom and turned on the headlight on the roof with a click.
There was a bulging figure on the big bed, a figure he was very familiar with. Because of the sudden light above her head, she frowned and shrank into the bed in discomfort.
Conway was stunned for a moment.
Looking at the soft and beautiful face that he was thinking about, as if taking root in his body, his heart, which had been squeezed by fear and was empty, seemed to be filling up little by little.
He turned off the headlights, walked towards the bed in the dark, sat down on the empty bed on the other side, and then quietly looked at Gu Mengmeng, who was sleeping soundly.
I don't know how long he maintained this posture, but he suddenly smiled.
Lying on his back next to her, regardless of her still sleeping, he hugged her tightly with his warm arms. He was still very happy, rubbed her smooth forehead with his thin lips, and murmured
.
"Silly girl. You are such a heartless, stupid girl."
Outside the window is a bleak late autumn scene in the North, but inside the house, it becomes warm and tender because of the two people cuddling together.
The next day was a rainy day.
It seems like overnight, winter has arrived. In the streets and alleys of Beijing, on both sides of the streets, only the poor branches of the tall trees are left swaying in the cold wind.
When Gu Mengmeng woke up, Kangwei was not there.
She alone occupied nearly two-thirds of the huge bed. She slept in the middle, nestled in the warm goose feather quilt, and used the remote control to open the thick curtains.
It was still raining outside, and the raindrops were very heavy. They slid all the way down the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and then fell from the 21st floor, shattering into pieces in an instant.
She nestled in the quilt and looked at it for a while, then got up and washed up.
When I brushed my teeth, I smelled my own sweat and frowned.
It seems that yesterday's battle was still too intense.
Due to the address on her ID card, the astute people's police smelled something unusual. They solemnly called the chief of the police station, and then confirmed the relationship between her and Gu Quntang through phone calls.
Later, Xiao Huang came.
Then everything will be solved.
For a moment, she felt a little confused about her aloofness and pride in rejecting power and official authority for so many years. She was forced to the precipice after being blamed so much, but she didn't expect that it was just Xiao Huang's shy smile that solved it all.
He is just a life secretary beside Comrade Gu Quntang.
His salary is not even comparable to hers.
But he didn't need to say anything, he just had to stand there, and all difficulties and obstacles would automatically disappear.
The power of power is so powerful that even a small citizen like her who wants to be ordinary can't help but admire her.
When Xiao Huang sent her back to the community, she gave him a serious warning.
"Don't do this next time. Whether it's me or Gu Jingxi, if we get into trouble, it's up to us to deal with it ourselves, because we are just Gu Quntang's children, not the so-called second-generation officials who rely on our parents."
