In the evening, snowflakes floated in the gray sky.
The business car slowly left the police station, and the atmosphere in the car was extremely solemn.
Old Liu sighed hard and whispered: "Lawyer He, see... can there be other solutions?"
When the person saw him, he talked a few words, but the dead girl refused to answer anything except shook her head.
He Miaomiao shook her head: "Old sir, your daughter is so uncooperative, and you don't even listen to your advice. Then please forgive me for being powerless. She didn't say anything, didn't cooperate with the police, or did not cooperate with me, so she kept shaking her head.
Sorry, I dare not accept such a case.”
Liu Zhicheng cursed with red eyes: "Why is she so stubborn! Dad, do you think...will she have any hidden secrets?"
"She wants to die!" Old Liu cursed angrily: "She has never thought about how serious the consequences of this?! She was sentenced to twenty years old. When she came out, she was fifty years old. What else could she have in the future?
?!Why didn’t she listen to advice?!What did she want to do?”
Liu Zhicheng wiped away the tears in the corners of his eyes and did not speak.
He couldn't figure out how his sister would become like this. No matter how he and his father persuaded him or how the lawyer weighed the pros and cons, she kept shaking her head, refusing to explain the wrong things she had done, and shook her head from beginning to end.
Xue Ling sighed softly and said, "The weather is cold, Lao Liu, are you all hungry? First find a place to have a hot meal, and then settle down for you."
Then, she ordered the driver: "Go back to the mall."
The driver should be fine and turn the direction toward the city center.
He Miaomiao whispered: "Mr. Xue, I won't be able to disturb you. Just put me down at the intersection ahead."
"It's okay." Xue Ling said: "It's snowing outside. First, I'll have a hot meal with us, and then I'll ask the driver to take you home. It's cold, so you'll have to run with you all day, so I'll have to invite you to eat if I can't help you.
One meal.”
He Miaomiao knew that Xue Ling was generous and did not refuse anymore. She nodded gratefully.
The lights of Ronghua Mall are bright and the neon lights are flashing brightly.
Several people got out of the car.
Xue Ling greeted the driver and said, "You can go upstairs with us to eat together."
"No, I'll go to the food street outside to eat." The driver smiled honestly and said, "Mr. Xue, I'll go back here in half an hour."
Xue Ling chuckled: "Okay! You save the order and go to the Finance Office to reimburse it tomorrow. It's cold and eat some hot food."
The driver hurriedly thanked and hurried out of the parking lot.
Xue Ling took them to the first floor by taking the elevator to the hotel restaurant.
"Manager, arrange a large room with good conditions for me and these two friends. Arrange a private room in the restaurant for me."
"Okay!" The manager was still very enthusiastic and smiled: "Two distinguished guests, just store your luggage at the front desk. There are so many private rooms! Come with me! Boss Xue, I'll prepare it for you.
One of the warmest ones.”
Xue Ling smiled and said, "Okay, just arrange it. Come and have some hot and nutritious dishes to entertain my friends."
"No problem!" The manager likes customers as generous as Xue Ling the most. He settles them down and immediately asks the kitchen to prepare the dishes.
After looking at it, Old Liu asked, "Xiao Xue, it seems different from what I came before?"
Xue Ling explained: "Their boss made a good profit. The hotel was renovated last year and the restaurant was also renovated. I just rented the place for rent and was responsible for collecting rent, and I didn't pay much attention to it."
Old Liu nodded and raised an apology smile.
"Xiao Xue, we haven't contacted each other much in the past few years. We were busy with that terrible girl's affairs all afternoon, and we didn't have time to ask you how you've been doing over the years. By the way, I heard that you're making jeans, right?"
Xue Ling smiled and explained: "I have been making jeans for a few years and started to transform last year. Now there is only one branch factory that is doing clothing. The main factory has re-arranged it, bought a small patent, re-arranged the production line, and now I am doing menstruation for girls.
The business of sanitary napkins has been quite good in recent years and has been developing steadily."
"That's good." Old Liu smiled and said, "This big mall alone is enough to nourish and live for the rest of your life!"
He Miaomiao interrupted, "More than that! Mr. Xue also invested in building a building on Minghu, called 'Mingtian Building'. It is a big project with different nature from the mall, but it is also a very profitable one."
Old Liu praised and whispered: "In just over a decade, Xiao Xue, your career is progressing too quickly. At the beginning of the year, Editor-in-Chief Yang came to see me, and she is preparing to retire. Let's talk about good colleagues who were formerly a newspaper colleague.
And then when I talked about you, I admire you very much.”
"Thank you!" Xue Ling asked: "Editor Lin is about to retire, right? Is she okay?"
"Very good." Lao Liu explained: "She will not retire next year. Two of her children have come out to work, and the family conditions are getting better and better every year."
Xue Ling smiled and explained: "My husband and I discussed going back to our hometown in Rongcheng this year for the Chinese New Year. The children are old, so we have to take them back to our hometown to see more."
"Okay! You have to drink water and remember your source." Old Liu Wenshou said: "Rongcheng has changed a lot over the years. By the way, the riverside is very lively now, and there are many people living in it. It is already the most lively new district in Rongcheng. Your husband is
From Chengjia Village, right? There is also a lot of progress there, so I have to go back and take a look.”
Xue Ling nodded and said, "My father-in-law returned to Chengjia Village a few months ago, overturned the old house and built a small villa. Liu Xiaoyu brought more than 20 workers and worked hard for several months, saying that he would be done soon. There were three in total
There is a large yard in front of the floor, and it is almost renovated. When I go back at the end of the year, I should be able to live in it."
Liu Xiaoyu has many construction brothers in Rongcheng, from about twenty people at the beginning to even forty people during the renovation.
He is responsible for buying materials and arranging work every day. He drives back to the city in the evening and is also very busy.
Xue Ling sent hundreds of thousands of dollars to him, and Cheng Tianyuan also sent 100,000 yuan at a time. Liu Xiaoyu said that it was almost enough. Recently, he was connecting to the power supply and making a Western-style small fireplace.
There is no heating in the south, and people in Chengjia Village still slept on kangs or burned wood and charcoal to keep warm.
Liu Xiaoyu learned a lot of tricks from the city people in the imperial capital, making a small fireplace on each floor, and even sent her photos.
Cheng Tianyuan doesn’t like it very much, but Xue Ling doesn’t care. He explained that since he asks others to work for his own work, he must trust him with all his power. Anyway, he doesn’t have a long time to go back and live in a spacious place and comfortable place.
Liu Ying said that he would go back to live during the winter and summer vacations in the future, and would take a few children over there to recognize his roots.
Xue Ling agreed and promised to accompany them back every year during the Chinese New Year.
Lao Liu hurriedly said, "When you return to Rongcheng, remember to come to me. I plan to call my colleagues to have a dinner together, everyone gather together, keep in touch, and talk about their recent situation."
"Okay!" Xue Ling smiled and said, "Then let's just say that."
The manager brought a few waiters to serve the dishes, and everyone started to eat.
Xue Ling asked with concern: "Xiao Liu, is Liu Xing okay now?"
"Very good." Liu Zhicheng gnawed the meat in big mouthfuls and explained: "His daughter has started to go to high school. He is now the deputy director of the newspaper!"
Old Liu whispered: "That daughter... was brought by him later with that woman. He has not been able to have his own child for so many years... It's a pity. However, he is now open. He still goes to the photo studio on weekends.
When I go to work, I have always had a good relationship with that Tong Zi."
Xue Ling nodded and said, "Tong Zi and the others have always kept in touch with me. The couple has two children, one boy and one girl, and they live a happy life."
