"Sister... I will wait for one more day. After one day, if you... haven't dealt with my brother-in-law... then you can just wait and collect the body for me..." After saying that, Ding Tianyou hung up the phone and put away the phone.
, Ding Tianyou let out a long breath: "Sister, don't blame me for forcing you, I really can't help it..." A coward like Ding Tianyou would not commit suicide. He just deliberately scared Ding Jie by committing suicide.
He came to force Ding Jie to help him deal with Zhao Zilong, but Ding Jie was indeed fooled.
…
When she learned that her brother was going to commit suicide, Ding Jie was completely anxious. She hurried to the Armed Forces Department and kicked open the door of Zhao Zilong's office.
Zhao Zilong, who was at work, was startled by the sudden knock on the door. When he saw clearly that it was Ding Jie who kicked in, Zhao Zilong frowned: "Ding Jie, why are you here?"
Ding Jie walked a few steps to the desk and swept the tea cup away from the desk with a wave of her hand.
"Bang!"
"Wow!"
The tea cup was suddenly smashed to pieces, and the freshly brewed tea flowed all over the floor.
Then Ding Jie threw all the documents, pen holders, and books on the desk to the ground.
"Ding Jie, you are crazy!" Zhao Zilong shouted softly.
"Yes, I'm just crazy!" Ding Jie roared: "Zhao Zilong, let me ask you: Do you still want me to live?"
Zhao Zilong's face twitched uncontrollably: "What crazy talk are you talking about? When will I stop letting you live?" As he spoke, Zhao Zilong quickly stood up and walked to the door, closed the door, and locked it.
, when he turned around again, he was stunned by the scene in front of him...
Ding Jie took out a dagger from her bag and placed it directly on her wrist.
"Ding Jie, what are you going to do!" Zhao Zilong raised his foot and rushed towards Ding Jie.
"Stop! If you dare to take another step forward, I will slit my wrists and commit suicide immediately!" Ding Jie's eyes widened.
"Okay, okay, I can't go." Zhao Zilong stopped in a hurry and looked at Ding Jie in a panic: "Ding Jie, what on earth do you want to do?"
Ding Jie took a deep breath: "Let me ask you: Do you want me to live or do you want me to die?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I want you to live!" Zhao Zilong said urgently: "If you have something to say, please put it away first..."
Ding Jie said with an indifferent expression: "Since you want me to live, you must agree to a condition!"
"What conditions?" Zhao Zilong asked.
"Draw a clear line with Li Ming and join Ma Xiaoyao." Ding Jie said word for word.
"You...I..." Zhao Zilong's expression suddenly changed: "You...have been making trouble for a long time. Is it because of this that you started arguing with me to commit suicide?"
Ding Jie nodded: "Yes, that's why! Just give me a happy word, can you do it?"
"No!" Zhao Zilong refused straight away: "I can rely on you for anything, but not this matter! I told you, I have principles and bottom lines in life, and County Magistrate Li treats me well.
How can I betray him? Absolutely not!"
"Let me ask you one last time: Is it really not possible?" Ding Jie bit her lip and asked.
"Even if you ask a hundred times, my answer will be the same. I will never seek refuge with Ma Xiaoyao...I...ah...what are you doing...stop now..." Before Zhao Zilong could finish speaking, he looked at
When Ding Jie used the dagger to slide hard on his wrist, blood immediately flowed out. Zhao Zilong's face changed drastically, and he raised his feet and rushed towards Ding Jie.
Ding Jie took a step back and stared at Zhao Zilong with a pale face: "Stop! If you dare to take a step forward again, I will die in front of you immediately!"
Zhao Zilong immediately stopped and said angrily: "Ding Jie, what on earth are you going to do..."
"Since you don't care about my life or death, then why am I still alive? I might as well just die!" As he spoke, Ding Jie was about to slit his wrist with a dagger.
"Stop, stop..." Zhao Zilong stomped his feet bitterly: "Okay, okay, I promised you, why not I promised you... I promised you!!!" Facing his wife's life and death, Zhao Zilong completely
gave in.
Ding Jie stopped cutting her wrists to commit suicide and stared directly at Zhao Zilong: "Did you really agree?"
Zhao Zilong nodded feebly: "I agreed... You threatened me with suicide... Do I dare not to agree..."
"Then you call Ma Xiaoyao now." Ding Jie said.
Zhao Zilong's face twitched: "There's no need to be so hasty... You'd better put down the dagger first and let me stop the bleeding for you..."
"One sentence: You must call Ma Xiaoyao now. If you don't call me, I will cut my wrist and commit suicide immediately!" Ding Jie raised the dagger again and cut her own wrist.
"You...you...I'm really convinced by you!" Zhao Zilong sighed heavily: "Okay, I'll call Ma Xiaoyao now! Are you satisfied with this?" As he spoke, Zhao Zilong walked to the desk.
, reached out and picked up the phone.
"Why are you dazed? Dial the number quickly!" Ding Jie urged.
Zhao Zilong glanced at Ding Jie's still bleeding wrist: "Can you stop the bleeding first?"
"No!" Ding Jie glared: "After you make the call, I will stop the bleeding!"
"I'm completely convinced by you..." Zhao Zilong shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand and started dialing. As soon as he dialed two numbers, Zhao Zilong stopped: "Then what...when the call is connected, how should I talk to Ma Xiaoyao?"
What to say..."
"You are so stupid!" Ding Jie snorted: "Tell Ma Xiaoyao that you want to treat him to lunch, find a better hotel, book a private room, and then express your attitude at the dinner table."
"Invite you to lunch? Don't go to such trouble..." Zhao Zilong frowned.
"Can't bear to part with just one meal? Look at your potential!" Ding Jie curled her lips disdainfully: "Don't worry, I'll pay for the meal!"
"You misunderstood. It's not that I'm reluctant to spend money, but I think... forget it, I'll listen to you." Seeing Ding Jie's eyes glaring again, Zhao Zilong could only compromise, and called Ma Xiaoyao angrily.
…
When Ding Jie threatened Zhao Zilong with suicide, Ma Xiaoyao was reviewing and approving a document on rural reconstruction.
"Jingle Bell……"
The phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Ma Xiaoyao reached out and picked up the phone: "Hello? Who is this?"
"..." There was silence on the other end of the phone.
"Hello? Who's there?" Ma Xiaoyao asked several times, but the other party didn't speak. Just when Ma Xiaoyao interrupted and hung up, a voice finally came from the other end of the phone.
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma...it's me..." Zhao Zilong's deep voice came from the microphone.
"Minister Zhao?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned suddenly: "Do you have anything to do with me?"
"Uh... what... are you free at noon? I want to treat you... to dinner..." Zhao Zilong said hesitantly.
"What? Invite me to dinner?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Did I hear correctly?"
"You... you heard me right, I do want to treat you to dinner... and please be sure to show your appreciation..." Zhao Zilong smiled to himself.
Ma Xiaoyao reached out and touched his chin, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "It's so good, why did you think of inviting me to dinner?"
"Uh... this... how to say..." Zhao Zilong hesitated for a long time: "What... I... besides treating you to dinner, I have something else to tell you..."
"What's going on?" The confusion on Ma Xiaoyao's face deepened.
"I..." Zhao Zilong hesitated for a long time before saying: "I want to take refuge with you..."
"What?!" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes suddenly widened: "You want to take refuge in me? Did I hear you right? You would actually take the initiative to take refuge in me? This is too... Minister Zhao, what do you mean? Why for no reason?
Want to take refuge in me?"
"It's hard to put it into words... In short, I sincerely want to seek refuge with you, and I hope you can accept me." Zhao Zilong smiled helplessly.
Ma Xiaoyao was silent for a moment: "Are you serious? Are you sure you are not joking with me?"
"How can I think of joking with you now?" Zhao Zilong sighed: "I really want to join you, and I hope you can accept me."
"Since you are so sincere, then I will agree... uh..." Ma Xiaoyao was about to agree to Zhao Zilong when something suddenly occurred to him and he swallowed back the second half of his words: "Well, I have something urgent to deal with now.
You can call me back in half an hour." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, Ma Xiaoyao strode out of the office.
…
Zhao Zilong slowly put down the phone and raised his head to glance at Ding Jie: "Ma Xiaoyao said there was something urgent to deal with and asked me to call him back in half an hour."
"Then wait for half an hour." Ding Jie nodded: "Ma Xiaoyao is the executive deputy county magistrate. There will definitely be a lot of things that need to be dealt with."
"I've made the call. You can bandage the wound." Zhao Zilong pointed to Ding Jie's still bleeding wrist.
Ding Jie put away the dagger and took out two things from her pocket, one was disinfectant and the other was gauze. She used the disinfectant to disinfect the wound, and then bandaged the wound with gauze.
Zhao Zilong's face twitched. His wife was really well prepared. Zhao Zilong hesitated and asked, "Ding Jie, I have a question for you. I hope you can tell me the truth."
"Ask." Ding Jie nodded.
"If I just don't agree to join Ma Xiaoyao, will you really commit suicide?" Zhao Zilong asked.
"Of course." Ding Jie said without hesitation: "If you don't agree to my conditions, it means you don't care about me at all. If that's the case, what's the point of me still living?"
Zhao Zilong nodded: "I really admire you, you are awesome! I won't dare to provoke you in the future."
…
Ma Xiaoyao swaggered into Li Ming's office, then pulled out a chair and sat opposite Li Ming, then took out a cigarette, lit it and held it in his mouth.
"Who let you in? Get out!" Li Ming shouted softly.
