Chapter 976

Director Zou was very happy that day and talked a lot to me. But what made me a little worried and surprised was that he didn’t mention Secretary Qiu at all. He gave me the feeling that Secretary Qiu had no relationship with him.

Like a relationship.

From this, I analyze that there may be two situations, either he does not know that Secretary Qiu is about to get into trouble, or he simply does not take this person seriously in his heart.

However, I am still very worried, not about Secretary Qiu, but because I am afraid that his matter will really involve Tong Jiumei.

I almost called Tong Jiumei impulsively several times, but finally gave up.

Two days before the Lunar New Year, that is, on the afternoon of the first day of the New Year's Eve, I received a call from Tong Yao's mother, "Dr. Feng, our Yaoyao doesn't know what's wrong, and she hasn't been able to open the door recently."

Cell phone. I'm very worried about her. I've been to her work unit, but those people said that she was performing a secret mission recently, and they can't tell me where she is now. Dr. Feng, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and she has never been there before.

Can you ask someone to help me with my mission during the Spring Festival?"

I know that the old lady's behavior means that she is extremely panicked, and she has become so panicked that she has no idea. But, what can I do?

"Auntie, since she has gone on a secret mission, I may not be able to ask anyone about her situation. By the way, doesn't Tong Yao have a cousin named Qian Zhan? He used to be Tong Yao's leader.

You might as well ask him?" I said to her after thinking about it.

She immediately said: "Yes, yes! How could I forget this? I'll call him right away and ask him. Thank you."

I can't help but wonder: Will Qian Zhan know about Tong Yao's current situation? Even if he knew, would he tell her? It's hard to say.

At this moment, I suddenly thought of a person, and it was only because of the old lady’s phone call that I remembered her—Sun Lulu’s mother.

I have to go see her and wish her a happy new year. I said to myself.

As soon as this thought came to my mind, I couldn't sit still. I immediately went out and drove to buy some things, and then headed towards the place where Sun Lulu's mother lived.

However, what I didn't expect was that after I knocked on the door for a long time, I didn't hear a reply from inside, and no one came to open the door for me. I immediately became worried, so I continued to knock on the door hard.

At this time, the door of the house next door opened, and an old lady came out and looked at me warily and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

I asked: "Where is the old lady who lives here? I am a friend of her daughter and I want to come and pay her New Year's greetings."

The old lady said: "Oh. She has gone back to her hometown. She has been gone for more than a month."

I was very sorry, and then said to the old lady: "Well, let me just give these things to you, just as I wish you New Year's greetings."

My thought was: These are nutritional supplements for the elderly, and they are of no use if I take them back. However, my move immediately aroused the old lady's vigilance. She looked at me, and there was a sudden feeling in her eyes.

Hostility, "You are such a strange person, and I don't know you. Why are you sending me New Year greetings?"

Only then did I realize that my decision just now was too reckless, and at the same time I sighed in my heart: Why do people nowadays become so distrustful of each other? I hurriedly said: "Auntie, you misunderstood. That's it, I

This elder lives here alone and gets a lot of help and care from you as a neighbor on weekdays. Since she has gone back to her hometown, I will simply give these things to you, which can be regarded as my appreciation for your daily life.

This is a way of expressing your gratitude to me, an elder, for your concern and help. Besides, these things are only eaten by people of your age, so it’s of no use if I take them back, right? Just accept them. I’ll need your help in the future.

."

She hesitated for a moment and then said: "Let's put the things here with me first, and I'll hand them over to her when she comes back."

I said: "Auntie, I don't know when she will come back. These are edible things and will go bad if left for a long time. That would be a pity. Auntie, I am not a bad person and I sincerely thank you. You

Just accept it."

She said nothing more, stretched out her hand to take the thing from my hand, and said in her mouth: "I didn't expect that I would encounter such a good thing today."

I almost laughed. I thanked her repeatedly and left.

Then I went to Tong Yao's mother's place in my restaurant. The old lady didn't call me again. I really wanted to ask her if she had any news about Tong Yao.

When I got there, I didn't see the old lady. After asking the waiter, I found out that she was in the office upstairs. The waiter mysteriously told me: "She was drinking alone up there."

I immediately had a premonition that something was wrong, so I hurriedly ran upstairs.

The door to the old lady's office was closed. After I knocked on the door, I heard her voice inside asking: "Who is it?"

I said: "Auntie, it's me, Feng Xiao."

She came and opened the door for me. I looked at the situation inside and immediately laughed in surprise, "Auntie, why are you eating here? Haha! Are you still drinking? This is the first time I have seen you drinking.

"

She shook her head and sighed: "I was in a bad mood, so I asked them to cook some dishes for me here."

In fact, by this time I had basically judged: the old lady might still not know the true situation of Tong Yao, but it was just that the Spring Festival was approaching and she had no news about her daughter, so she was feeling upset.

But I still asked her, "Auntie, did you call? What did Tong Yao's cousin say?"

She sighed: "He said he didn't know, and it was inconvenient to ask. This girl should have told me no matter what."

I said, "Didn't you tell me before? Her job is special and she often carries out secret missions. Don't worry, she will come back immediately after finishing her work."

She said, "You haven't eaten yet. Come, have a few drinks with Auntie, and eat something by the way. I'll call someone to bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Of course I won't be polite, "Okay. Don't tell me, I'm really hungry. Auntie, please drink less. After all, you rarely drink, and your health is not particularly good."

She shook her head and said: "It's a rare drink. Feng Xiao, do you know what I'm most worried about? Tong Yao's uncle is my brother. He is also a policeman. There has been no news about him for a while. I have asked his work unit

Later, he also said that he was on a secret mission. Later, when we saw him a month later, he had turned into a corpse. Today's criminals are all ruthless, not to mention Yaoyao is still a woman

Where is the child? How can I not worry about this? I didn’t let her go to the police academy at first, but she had to go. Hey! As a parent, you really have to worry about your children endlessly in your life. Unless I die,

Then I will be out of sight and out of mind.”

I suddenly had a shocking feeling because of what she said about Uncle Tong Yao. But the more worried she was, the less I felt that I should tell her about Tong Yao's current situation, so I had to continue to comfort her: "

Auntie, it's okay. Don't worry. Maybe she will be back today or tomorrow."

The old lady shook her head and sighed: "I hope so."

The waiter quickly brought bowls and chopsticks, and I accompanied the old lady to eat, drink, and chat. The atmosphere was quite pleasant. In the middle of the conversation, I talked about my parents not coming to the provincial capital to celebrate the Spring Festival, and I also talked about my children.

After hearing this, she couldn't help but sigh, "You children, why don't you think about your parents? Your mother-in-law is with your children every day, but at the Spring Festival, you have to take the children away.

, It’s really too much. These rich people are really, too selfish.”

I was silent for a moment and could only smile bitterly.

At this moment, someone suddenly bumped into me from outside. She picked up the wine glass in front of me and drank it all at once. Then she picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine directly into her mouth.

The old lady and I couldn't help but be shocked.

"Girl, what are you doing?" the old lady exclaimed.

"Tong Yao, don't drink like this!" I hurriedly stopped her.

She must have encountered something big and unhappy. There is no need to guess, not to mention that I already knew some of her things. But fortunately, she finally came back before the Spring Festival. From this, I

To be sure, her problem does not seem serious, because her superiors at least considered allowing her to go home for the Spring Festival, which shows that the organization is relatively warm to her.

Fortunately, she actually listened to our greeting and immediately put down the bottle of wine. Then she snatched the chopsticks from my hand and began to clean up the dishes on the table.

Her mother and I were both surprised and immediately looked at her with our mouths wide open in surprise.

She continued to eat with her head down, looking as if she was extremely hungry. After a while, she put down her chopsticks, raised her head and looked at us in shock, "Why are you looking at me?"

Her mother suddenly laughed and said, "Girl, look at yourself, you don't look like a girl at all! It's true! Just wait a moment, I'll go down and cook some dishes myself. This girl, she ate all the dishes in just a few seconds.

It's over, Dr. Feng and I haven't finished eating yet."

I smiled and said, "It's okay."

The old lady went out with a smile. Then I looked at Tong Yao and found that her expression had become very ugly. She looked very depressed now, and her eyes were red.

She was holding her chopsticks and looking at the almost empty plates in front of her in a daze.

I looked at her, "Tong Yao, are you okay?"

She raised her head and looked at me, "You don't know anything? It's impossible, right?"

Of course I won't lie to her, "I heard it, but no one told me the specific situation. Are you okay?"

Her voice suddenly became cold, "Why don't you ask me why I did that?"

I hurriedly said: "The reason is very simple, because we are friends, I believe you must have your own reasons for doing that."

She was still cold, "It seems like we weren't friends at that time, right?"

I was stunned immediately, and after a while I smiled bitterly and said, "Tong Yao, what's wrong with you? I really don't blame you. I don't care why you did that at the time, but I can be sure of one thing.

That is: you must have your reasons. As for me, I just wanted to do you a small favor, and I didn’t care about anything else. But I didn’t expect that things would turn out like this. Now I am very embarrassed. On the one hand

You are my friend, and the other party is the father of my dead wife... I originally gave it back... Forget it, let's not say it, it is of no use. Anyway, he was very angry after hearing what I said,

Let me leave this matter alone."

She was silent.

I continued: "Tong Yao, do you know? When I learned about this matter, I immediately became very worried about you, because I knew that what my father-in-law did would definitely affect your existing work, and even

It may be more serious, but I don't dare to tell your mother about it because I don't want the old man to worry about you. Isn't that right? I came here specifically to inquire about your situation tonight. Tong Yao, now you have encountered such a thing

, I very much hope that I can help you. Really. Maybe I don’t have much ability, but I hope that I can help you as much as possible."

In fact, just now, when she suddenly put down the bottle, I understood that she must have felt very uncomfortable when she came in from the outside, but she suddenly realized that her state might arouse the old lady's suspicion.

Then he immediately pretended to be normal.

Her thoughts were the same as mine, and she didn't want the old lady to worry about her. But I knew very well that her current situation must be very troublesome.

As soon as I finished speaking, she suddenly stood up from her seat and said, "Feng Xiao, let's go to a bar somewhere else."

Of course I wouldn't object, because I knew she might want to tell me her current situation next, but I didn't want her mother to know. I said, "Okay. But I have to go down and tell your mother first."

When the old lady heard that we were leaving this place, she was a little unhappy at first, but she immediately became cheerful and said, "Okay, you go out and play. I will eat these dishes slowly by myself."

I was a little embarrassed and said, "Auntie, please stop drinking."

She waved at me and said, "I won't drink anymore. I promise I won't drink anymore. I feel relieved when she comes back. I can have a good sleep tonight."

After leaving the restaurant, Tong Yao immediately stretched out her hand to me, "Car keys."

I hurriedly handed it to her, but I was a little surprised: She didn't drive here today?

After getting in the car, she stepped on the accelerator and drove the car quickly. I almost couldn't sit still in the passenger seat. But I didn't say anything and let her continue to speed along the main road.

She must be in a very bad mood. I already know this completely.

She kept driving at high speed, constantly overtaking, turning left and right, and screeching brakes were heard from time to time under the wheels. I almost hit my head on the glass a few times, but I still didn't say anything and just tried my best to pull the safety switch.

Pull the belt over and plug it in.

I know that what she needs most now is to vent her emotions.

Finally, she drove the car to a food stall on Binjiang Road and stopped. Then she threw the car keys to me and ran forward. I closed the car door and immediately followed her.

She started to shout out what kind of food she wanted, and finally said: "Jiangnan Daqu, two bottles!"

I was immediately horrified, and hurried over and whispered to the food stall owner: "Come to Jiangnan Tequ, the best one here, buy a bottle first."

Then he went and sat across from her.

She looked at me, then burst into tears, "Feng Xiao, I have been fired from public office..." (To be continued)
