Lu Junhua walked inside, thought for a moment and then made a phone call.

While waiting, he thought of Yang Ke's words, shook his head and put them behind him.

The call was connected, and after waiting for a while, a human voice was heard.

"Hello, who is that?"

Hearing the familiar voice on the other end of the phone, Lu Junhua said in a slightly more friendly tone. "Brother Zhang, it's me, Lu Junhua."

"Hahaha, it's you, Xiao Lu." Lao Zhang put down his work and chatted briefly.

Just when I was about to ask him about business, Lu Junhua took the initiative to ask about the case.

Old Zhang, who was still nervous, suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart.

He asked tentatively: "Xiao Lu, why are you asking this?"

The man opposite noticed that the tone was not right, and for fear of misunderstanding, he told the story about him and Captain Huo. His subconscious curiosity about major cases was an important way for him to pursue continuous advancement in his career.

Deputy Director Zhang knew him. He had a good family background and outstanding personal abilities.

He has been famous in the past few years, and was selected as an outstanding advanced representative last year. So he wasn't as suspicious of him as he was of other things, but regarding the case... he thought about it.

"There isn't much information about clues in this case. Please wait a moment." Hearing his voice-over, Lu Junhua didn't bother to argue. He simply said this and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, he turned around and went to the leader's office again.

I don't know what he said, and it was more than half an hour before he came out again.

It was already past the time to get off work, and Lu Junhua hurried to the market, picked out some good things and went home.

We avoided the peak hours on the road and arrived at the compound safely.

A large group of people gathered around the stone table near the front door of the compound, chatting as usual.

Lu Junhua didn't care much and was about to rush over, just simply nodded and said hello.

"Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Lu, we have something to ask you, please wait a moment." The person who stopped the man was an old man. As the former predecessor of the director, the old man spoke with an official tone.

Sure enough, when Lu Junhua saw that face, he had to stop in a good temper.

"Old leader, you are too polite. Please tell me what you want to say."

A group of old men and old women with their grandchildren were staring at the handlebars with sharp eyes.

Lu Junhua naturally noticed it, but he didn't explain; he just felt hot on the back of his neck from being stared at by everyone.

This time it was Grandma Liu from the compound who asked the question. She is a retired school teacher. She happened to hear the news today and was very curious. "Ahem, is that story about your wife true? Is that little wife really that powerful?"

Upon seeing this, Lu Junhua looked around at everyone without showing any expression.

Seeing that most people looked curious and looked at me, I guess it wasn't bad news.

So he considered, "Did anyone say something?"

When speaking, he did not miss the changes in people's expressions.

Someone who couldn't help but share information said, "Oh, I forgot you were not at home. Someone came to the compound to look for your wife this afternoon."

"Yes, I heard that he is a leader and he wants to interview your wife."

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. There were several people there. Whose wife took them there? I can testify."

Lu Junhua finally got some information from these words.

He nodded to indicate that he didn't know and it was indeed difficult to reply to them.

Why don’t we wait for him to come home and talk about it later.

Everyone was so busy with his words that they ran away before they could react.

The old director was so angry that he laughed.

Lu Junhua, who was confused all the way, just arrived home and found the door was open.

He walked into the house curiously and found his wife packing something with her back to him.

"Wife, what are you doing?"

Yu Jiajia was so frightened by the shout that her body trembled. I almost couldn't control my voice and screamed out.

"You scared me to death!" Yu Jiajia glared at him, annoyed.

Lu Junhua didn't mean to scare her, but judging from her expression, she seemed quite frightened.

She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to call you." He went up to her and touched her head, whispering softly.

Yu Jiajia pushed him away, but couldn't help feeling that he was making a big deal out of nothing.

Then he explained, "I'm fine. Go change your clothes first. I'll talk to you later after I finish cooking."

Seeing that she had gone to the kitchen, he put her things away, raised an eyebrow and followed her.

"Wife, let's eat noodles tonight. Wash some cabbage leaves and I'll come out and cook them later."

He gave instructions while closing the bathroom.

Yu Jiajia glanced at the remaining things, took a few eggs and beat them into a bowl, and then cut a handful of green onions and put them in.

Wait for the fire to come on, put the bottom of the pot on, and scoop a spoonful of lard.

The solidified lard melts and the aroma wafts out from the edge of the pot. When the temperature rises, pour the eggs coated with stuffing into the pot. The golden liquid will instantly turn solid on one side.

Turn over the other side and stir with a spatula a few times to break it into large pieces.

Simply sprinkle some salt and serve.

When the man came out of the shower, the aroma of meat and eggs hit him in the face.

He paused while wiping his head, and the corners of his mouth under the towel turned up.

"It smells so good, what did you cook?"

Lu Junhua, with his eyes full of praise, indeed received a smiling face from his beloved wife.

Even the tone was much more friendly than before, "Scrambled eggs with green onions, eat with the noodles later."

The water in the pot hadn't boiled yet, so she simply sat aside and waited.

Seeing him coming over, I went to take his towel.

"Come, I'll wipe it for you."

"Thank you, wife!"

Lu Junhua said thank you in a very normal way. He fully accepted the intimacy between the young couple and even learned it to use himself.

Yu Jiajia thinks this is a good idea and it helps to create a harmonious relationship between husband and wife. A little intimacy and affection, in moderation, can keep the passion in a marriage alive.

Yu Jiajia asked him to sit down while she stood to do it for him; Lu Junhua refused and asked her to sit down while he simply squatted in front of her.

Yu Jiajia wanted to laugh at his action, and asked him to find a small stool, but the man shook his head without moving.

She knew it was a rejection, so she had no choice but to wipe his head.

"By the way, I encountered something today and I want to hear your opinion."

Lu Junhua knew what was going on. "Well, go ahead!"

She didn't hear any reaction from him, and her tone became much calmer.

"In the afternoon, a leader from the Cultural Bureau came to me and said he wanted to interview me and ask me to share my experience." When she said the second half of the sentence, her voice was much lower.

Obviously, he himself found it unbelievable, even though he had been polite and generous during the afternoon reception.

But as soon as the people left, her brain almost froze.

It's really surprising!

The perceptive Lu Junhua noticed the fluctuations in his young wife's emotions and spoke calmly. "Really? This is a good thing. My wife is amazing. She even made the newspaper news."

Yu Jiajia didn't realize his intention, but was happy to hear the compliment.

The smiles on their faces became sweeter, but they still had some concerns.

"But I asked Director Chen carefully, and she mentioned a lot of cases she had handled before." She stopped talking here, looked around, and asked him in a low voice.

"This information can't be disclosed casually. Although I'm not a police officer, I still know the basic confidentiality regulations." If some internal information is really leaked, should she be on guard against trouble from the bureau or copycat crimes when it is made public?

Don't say she's overthinking it. This kind of thing is not absolutely guaranteed.

Who can guarantee that there won’t be any problems?

Especially, after returning from the countryside, thinking back to what Grandpa Lu had told her, she secretly told herself that she had to be more cautious recently.

The current social phenomenon is booming, with various opportunities and threats coexisting.

Lu Junhua stood up, took her hands to wash, let her rest beside him, and went downstairs.

"This is something we really need to clarify. Did they say when they would respond?" Although it was a question, he was also sure that she did not agree.

"I asked to give me two days to discuss it with my family, and they agreed."

The man nodded, put the vegetables in, and then seasoned them.

Seeing this, Yu Jiajia got up and went to find the soup bowl. "If I agree, won't they all recognize me when I go out?" Thinking about being surrounded and questioned by people when she goes out every day made her feel uncomfortable as she has some social anxiety.

After being together for such a long time, he must know her very well.

But at least there are seven or eight points.

Lu Junhua lowered his head to suppress the undercurrent and replied to her, "I don't think so!"

They set the table and sat down to eat.

We ate and chatted, and it took half an hour to clean up.

It was a rare occasion that the young couple wanted to go out together. Yu Jiajia sat on the back seat while the man rode away for a long distance.

The two of them went to Lu's house, and she asked him if it was because of her.

Lu Junhua said that his younger sister should know more clearly, "Little sister?"

"Yes, even though her position is not high, she has a lot of contact with the Cultural Bureau on a daily basis. Besides, you should ask your parents about this matter. They have been here for a long time and they know some things better."

The man didn't tell her anything deeper, so she didn't need to worry about it.

"Well, it's quite comfortable to come out and get some fresh air at this time!" She felt at ease and didn't care, enjoying the evening breeze comfortably.

The warm street lights illuminated the front, and two overlapping figures quickly drove across the street.

Yu Jiajia in the back seat was swinging her legs and humming a song.

After more than 20 minutes' drive, the two arrived at Lu's house, and there were still voices in the living room.

The car stopped and someone in the house looked outside.

"Who's here, Yaoyao?"

Seeing her sister-in-law's brother coming, Lu Yaoyao waved to her sister-in-law happily.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Well, the people in the room who were listening heard it this time.

Why did the young couple come here at this time?

Could something have happened?

The elders had their own guesses. Grandpa Lu, who had finished eating early, got up and walked to the door to take a look.

Mother Lu, who had just come to the table, was holding the bowl, but she didn't remember to put it down.

Father Lu said, "Eat first and wait for them to come in."

Grandma Lu nodded, "Yes, eating well is the most important thing."

Mother Lu, who was not very punctual in eating, nodded and ate seriously, but she still remembered that there was something outside.

Soon, the young couple came in from outside with Lu Yaoyao.

Lu Junhua also brought some food with him, which he bought when he came.

"Grandpa, grandma, mom and dad!"

After greeting everyone one by one, Lu Yaoyao helped the old man inside.

The young couple said they had eaten it before and came here because they wanted to hear the elders' opinion on something, so the old man became interested.

"Why, you got transferred?"
