Bai Lu wanted to too, but she could only continue to criticize: "We have to wait for A-Cheng's injured brain to recover."
Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao were both worried and saddened, feeling bitter and helpless.
All I can do is bury my head in my food.
I can't count on my older brother's love, but my sister-in-law's love is more reliable, it's fragrant and delicious!
After Li Jianfeng woke up, Bai Lu, Luo Shiliu, and a few others went to see him. They didn't know if it was because the anesthetic was too effective and he couldn't bear it after it wore off, or if it was for some other reason.
Li Jianfeng cried out in pain as soon as he saw Bailu!
She also asked Bailu to peel an apple for him.
The only part of his body that could move was his mouth.
Bai Lu generously peeled a large basket of apples, letting him eat as many as he wanted from morning till night.
Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao, whether they thought the apples looked delicious because they saw Li Jianfeng eating them, or they just wanted to steal them from him, each grabbed a big apple and ran away.
Li Jianfeng could only stare helplessly.
Keep a record of it first, and then get it back a hundredfold when you can get back to work.
After Yang Chuantang woke up, Bai Lu went to visit him, and Liu Zhenguo was also in the room.
The two were discussing the recent explosion.
They didn't avoid the White Dew season either.
In Liu Zhenguo and Yang Chuantang's eyes, Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng were equally brave and resourceful, proving that women are just as capable as men.
They have the same right to participate in the cooperation.
All three major forces gathered at the manor and were wiped out in one fell swoop. Based on the clues found so far, the remote-controlled bomb on the street lamp was probably the work of Li Chengbin's father-in-law.
Li Chengbin's father-in-law was suspended from his post and investigated after the "report" was verified.
But they reached out and tried to wipe out both Yang Liu's official team and Xiao Chengfang's team.
They reap the benefits without lifting a finger.
I'll find another opportunity to emerge and dominate Nanshi.
If he didn't have connections in the province, he wouldn't dare to have such reckless thoughts, and he has already put them into action.
Yang Chuantang and Liu Zhenguo have jointly written a letter and made a phone call to their counterparts at the national level to explain the situation.
As expected, a high-ranking official will soon be dispatched from above to conduct a comprehensive purge, covering both the province and the city.
At that time, it will be a swift and decisive cut.
Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu could not participate.
Yang Chuantang and Liu Zhenguo informed Bailu in advance to check for any omissions and make precautions, so as not to be caught off guard by a full investigation.
Bai Lu understood perfectly well that this period was similar to the purge and sweeping action of the China Securities Regulatory Commission in later generations.
From politics to business, from top to bottom, everyone will be affected, and early preparations are essential.
-
Qingming Festival.
Xiao Cheng is still in the hospital and his condition is unstable. He needs Bai Lu by his side at all times. Grandpa Hu told Bai Lu to stay, and he and Xiao Wei could go back to Xinzhen to sweep the tombs.
Bai Lu did not refuse; while accompanying Xiao Cheng, she also took the opportunity to handle company affairs.
After several days of busy official duties and sorting out Xiao Cheng's clandestine forces, he arranged for all the brothers to smoothly transition from the underworld to the legitimate world in preparation for the upcoming purge.
There are many things to do.
After Bai Lu finished signing the last document, she looked at the ever-burning flame of the lamp, leaned over the bed and talked to Xiao Cheng for a while before falling asleep without realizing it.
Not long after.
The ward door was pushed open.
Luo Shiliu saw Bai Lu sleeping by the bedside, so he tiptoed and placed the lunchbox on the table.
She quietly opened the wardrobe and, after a struggle between the blanket and the coat, chose Xiao Cheng's coat.
I thought that since the coat carried Xiao Cheng's scent, it wouldn't wake Bai Lu.
Unexpectedly, Bai Lu woke up just as Luo Shiliu draped his coat over her shoulders.
When she woke up, she realized that it was Xiao Cheng's clothes, paused for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the bed.
Seeing that Xiao Cheng was still lying motionless on the bed with his eyes closed, she turned her gaze to the area outside the hospital bed.
Luo Shiliu spread his hands.
Innocent and helpless: "I took it from the closet, and I even specifically chose Cheng-ge's coat. I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be wary of even my brother. Tsk tsk~ What a blunder! What a blunder!"
Bai Lu pulled her coat tighter and gave him a grateful glare: "Acheng hasn't even woken up yet and he's already tattling. You really are a gossip expert when it comes to gathering information."
"I'll take that as a compliment." Luo Shiliu gave the bed a wink: "Don't worry, Cheng-ge can't hear you, he doesn't know you're doing something bad behind his back."
Bai Lu, who was being complained about again, was exasperated: "Do you think the Soul-Guiding Lamp is just for show?"
Luo Shiliu finally remembered her painful memory: "It's one thing for Cheng Ge to be biased towards you, but even Qingdeng is biased towards you. It's just too much, it hurts my heart, sister-in-law... Let's eat quickly, or it will get cold."
It's already dark, past nine o'clock at night.
Bai Lu hadn't eaten dinner yet. Luo Shiliu followed her to the dining area while carrying the documents, scolding, "Sister-in-law, you can't do this. If Brother Cheng wakes up, he'll kill us brothers."
"White-collar workers get paid but don't do any work."
"What are you thinking?" Bai Lu knew they were concerned and explained, "I did the work that A-Cheng did before he got injured. You all have your own things to do too, you're not idle. What reason does A-Cheng have to blame you?"
"It's our fault for not taking good care of our sister-in-law!"
Luo Shiliu said, half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Sister-in-law has to focus on her studies, take care of Cheng-ge, and build her career. She does everything herself. Does she treat us as outsiders and not trust us brothers?"
"nonsense."
Bai Lu looked up from the fragrant, steaming food and said, "If A-Cheng trusts you, why can't I?"
“I’ve already said that what A-Cheng can do, I can do too. The focus is on the work, not on whether we trust each other or not. A-Cheng and I are husband and wife. Husband and wife should understand and tolerate each other, share the good times and the bad times together.”
"I'm not the kind of person who just hides behind A-Cheng and indulges in pleasure."
“I am a partner who can fight alongside Acheng, just like you guys.”
