Chapter 376 A forced melon is not sweet
After a long silence, Song Lin smiled and said, "Jin'an, you are always so soft-hearted."
"Dad, what do you think?" Song Jinan did not comment, but looked at Song Lin seriously, wanting to get an accurate answer from him.
Song Lin noticed that Song Jinan's hands were slightly clenched and could see that he took this matter very seriously.
He sighed softly, "Okay, I promise you, I will use this to clean up Feng City, and focus on investigating the Liulichang you mentioned. I will definitely vent my anger for you. I just hope you won't blame Dad for asking you to come here on his own initiative."
Before Song Jinan could show her joy, the topic changed again.
He heard the hidden meaning in Song Lin's words. He would take care of Feng City's affairs and crack down on human traffickers, but he had to accept the arrangements this time and it would be best if the blind date was successful so as to help his political career.
His face turned cold and he couldn't eat the food in his mouth.
Song Lin pretended not to see it, and picked up another piece of pork ribs for him with his chopsticks, jokingly saying: "Jin'an, don't make it difficult for Dad. It's just a meeting, not that you have to settle down now. What if the other person doesn't like you? Isn't it useless?"
Seeing that Song Lin was so sweet-talking and had promised him the Feng City matter, Song Jinan didn't say anything to refuse.
He gritted his teeth and said dryly: "The matter of Feng City must be dealt with as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Song Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Of course, you still don't believe what Dad said? Eat, eat!"
He was very satisfied and ate with a great appetite. From time to time, he looked up at his son's handsome face, and felt even more satisfied. With such looks and background, which girl would not look down on him?
Song Lin was full of confidence in his son and felt that this matter was a sure thing.
Song Jinan couldn't eat anymore because of him looking at her. She sat there for a while, then stood up and said, "I'm full."
He went upstairs by himself, and when he returned to the room, he saw Shi Bo making the bed. Thinking of their conversation and friction just now, he didn't know what to say for a moment, and stopped where he was, not even looking at Shi Bo.
Shi Bo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Jin'an, you are still so stubborn."
After thinking about it, Shi Bo decided to enlighten Song Jinan, and said thoughtfully: "I know you like Comrade Gu just now, but she doesn't seem to have any feelings for you. I sent her out and gave her a reward for sending you back."
Hearing this, Song Jinan's expression changed, and he suddenly looked at Shi Bo: "She accepted it?"
"Yes, I accepted it. It was done cleanly and decisively. It's obvious that I don't want to have any more entanglement with you. So Jin'an, be more open-minded. You two were not a match to begin with. A forced melon is not sweet." Shi Bo was silent for a moment, then he said this.
Song Jinan's eyes were bright and dark, with a flickering light. Thinking of Song Lin's words forcing him to go on a blind date, and then thinking of Gu Yuehuai's indifference and rejection, he finally sneered. Yes, a forced melon is not sweet. Whatever your fate is, it is your fate and it cannot be changed.
He always knew that Gu Yuehuai was a cruel person, both to others and to himself.
He always wanted to break through her defenses and start by becoming friends with her, but every time he had this opportunity, it would slip away for various reasons. This was really his fate.

On the other side, Gu Yuehuai, who got on the bus, did not rush to open the envelope. After handing it into the Sumeru space, he started talking with a young man sitting next to him, preparing to find a place to settle down first.
After some chatting and inquiring, Gu Yuehuai chose Shenghua Street in Huaihai City.
Shenghua Street is the most prosperous street in Huaihai City. There are several consignment shops there. She can first write to Yan Shaoyu to inform him that she is already in Huaihai City, and then find a way to meet. During this period, she can go to the consignment shop to sell the bracelet.
Although meeting Yan Shaoyu was a big deal, consigning the bracelet and taking the money back was also a big deal.
As the sky gradually darkened, the bus slowly arrived at Shenghua Street. As soon as Gu Yuehuai got off the bus, he saw a guesthouse.
Before she left the Dalaozi Production Brigade, she also got a letter of introduction specifically for the purpose of staying at the guest house.
Huaihai City No. 1 Guesthouse.
Gu Yuehuai successfully moved into a simple and clean single room. Although the price was a bit higher, at $1.50 a night, it was much more convenient than a double or triple room. She had her own Sumeru space, so it was inconvenient for her to get things when living with others.
As soon as he entered the room, Gu Yuehuai leaned over the table, took out paper and pen from the space and wrote a letter to Yan Shaoyu.
The post office is closed now, and the letter has to be mailed tomorrow morning. Given the distance, it will be delivered in about a day. During this time, she can go to the consignment shop and sell the mutton-fat jade bracelet.
After writing the letter, Gu Yuehuai stretched lazily, flipped his wrist, and took out another meat bun from the space. The meat bun placed in the thatched hut was still steaming from the pot. After eating it, it felt like it soothed all his internal organs.
After eating the buns, Gu Yuehuai drank some space well water, and dinner was solved.
She took a basin to fetch some water, washed up, closed the door and prepared to rest. Lying on the thin little bed, she suddenly remembered the envelope given by Shi Bo. She raised her eyebrows, took it out and opened it.
The thick envelope felt heavy in his hand, but when he opened it, Gu Yuehuai was not disappointed. Inside were brand new big unity notes. He counted them and there were exactly ten of them, which was a hundred yuan.
In addition, there are some bills, grain coupons, meat coupons, oil coupons, egg coupons, etc., which are very rich.
Gu Yuehuai chuckled. Shi Bo was a good man. Even though he had "driven" her out in disguise, he still rewarded her generously. It was worth it for the healing power she had given to Song Jinan along the way.
She collected the money and muttered, "Not bad, I can really blackmail him next time if I have the chance."
Gu Yuehuai was amused by his own thoughts. He turned off the lights, covered himself with the quilt and fell asleep.
I've been busy on the train these days and I'm exhausted both physically and mentally. I really need a good sleep.
The next morning, when Gu Yuehuai woke up, it was already eight o'clock.
She packed up briefly, ate a bun, took the envelope to the post office, bought a stamp, and sent the letter smoothly. According to the post office staff, it would reach Yan Shaoyu tonight.
Gu Yuehuai nodded with satisfaction. After leaving the post office, he went to the main street of Shenghua Street, ready to visit the consignment shops there.
When she arrived at Shenghua Street, all the shops on the street were already open. At first glance, she saw several consignment stores, and judging from their size, they were much larger than the one she had visited in Zhoulan City.
Gu Yuehuai took the wooden box containing the bracelet and went into the largest consignment shop.
However, she regretted it as soon as she entered the door.
This shop is filled with beautiful women, colorful flowers and willows. If you don't know, you might think it is an illegal business. But if you look closely, you will find that these women are dressed very exquisitely and are definitely not from ordinary families.
Gu Yuehuai originally wanted to leave, but after hearing what these beautiful girls said, his eyes flickered and he changed his mind.
