After a while, Fang Xiaoya sighed: "There were just some clues about my father's case, but Jin Tao suddenly died without any explanation. I don't know when the truth of the case will be found out, so that my father can rest in peace."
Fang Xiaoya's eye circles turned red as she spoke.
Qiao Liang consoled him: "Xiaoya, there is no need to rush this matter. Haste makes waste. I now feel that this case is very deep. It will be counterproductive if we do it too hastily. Although Jin Tao is dead, there may not be any other way to find out the truth.
.Lu Qian will not give up on this case, and we will also persist."
Fang Xiaoya nodded: "Lu Qian is such a good person. It's really rare for her to be so eager to help without any relatives. I always feel that I owe her something."
"Don't think so. She is a police officer and this is her duty. She is bound to do so."
"That being said, she can completely ignore the matter. After all, the case has been closed."
"That's true. Lu Qian is in charge of this matter. In fact, firstly, she wants to make political achievements during her temporary tenure. Secondly, she is an upright person and does justice. As a police officer, she also draws her sword to help when encountering injustice."
"Do you think she helped us mainly because of the former or the latter?"
"I think both are."
Fang Xiaoya nodded. She seemed to feel more relaxed after Qiao Liang said this.
After finishing a bottle of white wine, Fang Xiaoya was slightly drunk, her face was flushed, and she looked very attractive.
After the meal, Qiao Liang went to pay the bill. Fang Xiaoya said, "You are too full. Why don't you go for a walk nearby?"
"good."
The two of them left the hotel and walked to the nearby night market. At this time, the night market was bustling with people and the sounds of various hawkers came and went, making it very lively.
"Xiaoya, there are too many people, don't get separated," Qiao Liang said.
"Yeah." Fang Xiaoya agreed and took Qiao Liang's hand.
Fang Xiaoya's delicate and delicate hands were warm at this time, probably because of drinking.
Qiao Liang held Fang Xiaoya's hand and smiled at her.
Fang Xiaoya suddenly felt moved in her heart. Thinking of her four years in college, the eight years of separation across the ocean, and Qiao Liang's marriage and work experience, she suddenly felt the urge to cry and couldn't help but hold Qiao Liang's hand tightly.
hand.
"Qiao Liang..."
"Well, I'm here." Qiao Liang looked at Fang Xiaoya's clear eyes, "Xiaoya, what do you want to say?"
"It's nothing, I just want to call you." Fang Xiaoya smiled softly.
Qiao Liang smiled, took Fang Xiaoya's hand, and the two of them walked casually among the crowd.
"This feeling is so good, as if I have never felt it before." Fang Xiaoya said after a while.
Qiao Liang didn't speak, he felt the same way at this time.
"I really hope it can keep going like this..." Fang Xiaoya said softly.
Qiao Liang's heart trembled slightly. From Fang Xiaoya's words, he felt the fragility and loneliness in Fang Xiaoya's heart.
Qiao Liang suddenly felt pain in her heart and subconsciously held Fang Xiaoya's hand tightly.
Fang Xiaoya felt it, and felt a warmth and impulse in her heart. She suddenly stopped and looked up at Qiao Liang intently.
"Xiaoya..." Looking at Fang Xiaoya's pure and bright eyes, Qiao Liang's voice was a little hoarse.
Fang Xiaoya didn't say anything, but threw herself into Qiao Liang's arms, hugged Qiao Liang's waist tightly, and pressed her face against his chest, her body trembling slightly.
Qiao Liang suddenly felt throbbing all over and felt a little at a loss. This was in a busy night market with many people around.
But Qiao Liang couldn't push Fang Xiaoya away at this time. He clearly felt that Fang Xiaoya needed comfort at this time.
Qiao Liang gently patted Fang Xiaoya on the shoulder.
"Tsk, tsk, handsome guy and beautiful girl, what a perfect match..."
"Hey, it's so open. There are so many people hugging each other, it's really enviable..."
People around him admired him from time to time.
After a while, Fang Xiaoya let go of her hand and left Qiao Liang's arms. Qiao Liang saw Fang Xiaoya with tears streaming down her face.
She cried.
Qiao Liang's nerves were throbbing again, and her heart suddenly felt painful and filled with incomparable pity.
Qiao Liang stretched out her hand and gently wiped away the tears on Fang Xiaoya's face, while whispering: "Silly girl, you are not afraid of embarrassment."
Fang Xiaoya looked around, realized it, blushed, and then became embarrassed.
"Let's go back." Fang Xiaoya took Qiao Liang's arm and they walked to the hotel.
After being silent for a long time, Fang Xiaoya said: "Did I lose my temper just now?"
Qiao Liang did not answer. He was silent for a moment and said, "Xiaoya, you let me see another side of you."
"How do you like it?"
Qiao Liang hesitated: "I don't know."
Fang Xiaoya nodded and sighed slightly.
Back at the hotel, when they arrived in front of the room door, the two of them stopped and looked at each other.
"Xiaoya, go to bed early." Qiao Liang said after a while.
Fang Xiaoya nodded, wanting to say something, but didn't say it. She took out her room key, opened the door, went in, and closed the door gently.
Qiao Liang returned to the room, lit a cigarette, stood at the window, looked at the lights of the city, and thought about the scene with Fang Xiaoya at the night market, feeling filled with emotions...
Qiao Liang didn't fall asleep for a long time that night. He tossed and turned in bed, thinking about the past with Fang Xiaoya. He wondered if Fang Xiaoya next door had slept well.
The next morning, the two went downstairs to the restaurant to have breakfast.
"I'll go do some errands after dinner, and you can catch up on your sleep and get some more sleep." Fang Xiaoya looked at Qiao Liang's tired look and knew that he didn't sleep well last night.
Qiao Liang nodded. Although Fang Xiaoya put on light makeup, she could still faintly see that she was a little tired. She probably didn't sleep well last night.
But Qiao Liang didn't want to say it.
"There is a man over there who keeps looking this way." Fang Xiaoya said softly, reaching behind Qiao Liang and pointing.
Qiao Liang looked back and saw that it was Kang Dewang eating breakfast with two men, looking over here while eating.
Qiao Liang nodded and smiled at Kang Dewang. Kang Dewang also nodded and hurriedly lowered his head to eat.
Qiao Liang turned to Xiaoya and said, "Kang Dewang, Minister Xu's old classmate, is now involved with Tang Chao in Jiangzhou."
"It turns out he is Kang Dewang." Fang Xiaoya nodded, "The Songbei Cultural Tourism Pioneer Park project now belongs to me. He must feel very sad."
"He brought it upon himself. Ma Ziying got in because of him. It would be nice not to charge him with bribery." Qiao Liang snorted.
"This guy has a sinister look on his face. He is not a good person at first glance. How could Lao Xu have such a classmate? How sad." Fang Xiaoya sighed.
Qiao Liang smiled: "You have never had any dealings with him, how do you know that he is not a good person?"
"I can read it, it comes from my heart." Fang Xiaoya also smiled.
Qiao Liang nodded: "This makes sense. A person with an ugly heart will unconsciously develop a temperament in his appearance over time."
"Looking back, I have to remind Lao Xu not to have close friendship with classmates like Kang Dewang, but to stay away from them," Fang Xiaoya said.
"Do you need to remind me of this? Minister Xu has met many different people, so he will naturally know what they are doing."
"He knows it, do you know it in your heart?" Fang Xiaoya said.
"I..." Qiao Liang didn't know how to answer for a moment, and suddenly thought of Chu Heng. Although the appearance was born from the heart, there was really no trace of a villain in Chu Heng's appearance, and she had been grateful to him for a long time.
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel ashamed, and felt that she was too young in the course of life and needed more training and more trials and hardships.
After eating, Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya walked out. When they passed by Kang Dewang, Kang Dewang took the initiative to stand up and say hello: "Director Qiao, you are ready."
"Yes, it's ready." Qiao Liang nodded politely.
Kang Dewang then looked at Fang Xiaoya: "This is..."
