evening.
When it was time to leave work, Guan Feng walked out of the office. Wang Ya Yue, dressed in an elegant black trench coat, appeared at the office door. Her pretty appearance made Gao Dacheng, Liu Shengguo and others' eyes light up.
"Officer Wang, are you dressed like this because you're waiting for a date with our captain?"
"The captain will be here soon, Lily. Do you want to come with your sister?"
Liu Shengguo looked at Huang Lili and asked.
Huang Lili's expression changed slightly, but she said calmly, "The captain didn't call me."
Wang Yayue said, "I had a dinner appointment tonight. I had already made plans with people, but Guan Feng said it would be best if a family member accompanied me. I had no choice but to decline."
"Officer Wang knows how to be a good wife."
"If Captain Guan knew that you specifically declined that offer, he would definitely be happy."
Everyone burst into laughter.
At that moment, Guan Feng walked out of the office.
He looked at Wang Ya Yue and said, "Ya Yue, you're here? Here, take the keys! Get in the car and we'll talk!"
Seeing this, Gao Dacheng and the others laughed and said, "Looks like we can't disturb Captain Guan's time alone. But this scene is really enviable! Let's go out for dinner! Who says middle-aged people can't go out and have a good meal?"
Upon hearing this, the group all smiled and nodded.
Guan Feng reminded everyone, "Those on duty, don't drink alcohol!"
"receive!"
Qi Xia spoke.
Guan Feng then led Wang Yayue to the parking lot.
Beep beep!
The car was unlocked, and Wang Yayue got into the driver's seat and started navigating to her destination.
......
Red clay stove.
This is a rather unique private restaurant in Hua'an. Its quiet location and secluded private rooms make it popular with many important customers.
When Guan Feng and Wang Yayue arrived, Zheng Yuandong had already been sitting there waiting for a while. When he saw the two of them come in, he immediately smiled and said, "I just ordered two dishes, both home-style dishes. Officer Wang, do you want to add anything else? Let's eat while we wait."
Wang Yayue said, "I'm fine with anything, it mainly depends on Guan Feng."
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "Husband and wife in harmony, good!" He then looked at Guan Feng and asked, "Guan Feng, what do you think?"
Guan Feng took the menu and, based on his understanding of Wang Yayue, ordered two dishes: "Their braised pork intestines are good, they're cleaned well and taste good too. Let's have a serving of braised pork intestines and some braised prawns. Team Leader Zheng, you can add one or two other side dishes. There are only three of us, so don't order too much."
Wang Yayue felt a sweet warmth in her heart when she saw Guan Feng casually name two dishes that she liked. She subtly moved closer to Guan Feng and sat down next to him.
Guan Feng saw the warm rice wine on the table and said with a smile, "It's a weekday! Baijiu (Chinese liquor) will give you a headache, but rice wine is fine to drink without harming your health. Captain Zheng, this is a good arrangement!"
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "I have to work tomorrow, otherwise I'd like to have a few drinks with you."
Guan Feng poured drinks for the two of them, and then took the initiative to pick up his glass, saying, "Captain Zheng, when I first came to Hua'an, I worked under you. You helped me a lot. We're not strangers, so you can just say whatever you want!"
Zheng Yuandong said, "Okay!"
He clinked glasses with Guan Feng, and after a sip of rice wine, a warm feeling gradually spread through him, and his desire to speak was awakened.
He took the initiative to say, "Guan Feng, then I won't waste any more time. I've heard rumors that the Major Crimes Unit is going to select talent again, and it's even a rotation of squad leaders?"
Guan Feng nodded and said, "I won't lie to you! This matter is imperative, and it will be completed within a week."
Zheng Yuandong asked in surprise, "You know that?"
Guan Feng said, "I heard about it privately when I had dinner with the leaders last time, but I do not admit that I said it after we left the dinner table."
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "I know that, don't worry! I won't tell anyone."
Guan Feng nodded and said, "It's most likely Li Gang! Apart from Li Gang, there will be two or three other changes in the entire First Squadron. As for how they will change, that's a matter of weighing the options among the leaders."
Zheng Yuandong asked, "Guan Feng, do you think I have a chance?"
Guan Feng looked at Zheng Yuandong, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "Captain Zheng, to be honest, your professional skills are beyond reproach. You are a veteran captain in the entire Hua'an Criminal Investigation Team, but you are a bit older."
“Besides me, Wang Bin is 33 years old, Li Gang is 37 years old, and you are 40 years old, which is actually on the older side. The branch captain asked for my opinion last time, and I recommended you, but the leaders may still have some concerns.”
Zheng Yuandong said, "Guan Feng, I know that age is a disadvantage, but we criminal investigators value attitude! When have I ever acted like a senior just because I'm older?"
Guan Feng said, "I agree with that, but the leaders have concerns, right? They originally intended to rectify the atmosphere of the serious crime squad, but instead, they've got someone who's just retired?"
Zheng Yuandong sighed: "So you're saying I really have no chance?"
Guan Feng said, "That's not necessarily true!"
Zheng Yuandong immediately perked up and asked, "Guan Feng, just say what you want to say! I'll do as you instruct me, brother."
Guan Feng said, "I wouldn't presume to offer advice! It's just that outsiders have a clearer perspective. Since the detachment leader thinks that your age might affect your attitude, then just show that and point it out directly."
“Your child will be starting junior high soon, right? Just tell your sister-in-law to send your child to school in the city and buy a house. This will show that you’re going to focus your energy on your work. The team leader is from Hongcheng, so he’ll naturally give priority to people from Hongcheng.”
"If you have some free time in the next couple of days, give your former boss a call, express your determination, and share your thoughts!"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yuandong slammed his hand on the table and said, "Guan Feng, you're right! Let's do it this way!"
