Xu Wei returned around lunchtime, bringing with her an unexpected person.
Looking at the familiar face next to her godmother, Bai Yajing couldn't help but think how small the world was...
“Daughter, let me introduce you to a friend. Her name is Liu Meiling. She is my colleague’s daughter and also lives in the compound.”
I figured you're about the same age, so you should get along well.
She also considered that Bai Yajing would be living here in the future, and it would be better to have a playmate by her side.
Bai Yajing knew her good intentions, and besides, the girl she was brought here to introduce to her must be quite good.
She raised her hand and extended it, smiling gracefully. "Hello, Comrade Liu, my name is Bai Yajing. We've met today."
Xu Wei was taken aback and looked at Liu Meiling, "You two met today?"
Liu Meiling smiled somewhat awkwardly, but still extended her hand to shake hers out of courtesy.
"Hello, Comrade Bai. Thank you so much for your partner today..."
He turned to Xu Wei and explained what had happened that day.
This made Xu Wei laugh and keep patting their shoulders.
"The one who helped you should be Mr. Bai, he's Nannan's uncle. What kind of boyfriend is that?! You guys are going to kill me with laughter! Hahahaha..."
She wasn't an old-fashioned person who was clueless about things; she knew what was going on as soon as she heard it.
However, she still hopes that the two girls can become good friends, so those misunderstandings still need to be cleared up.
Upon hearing that it was her uncle, Liu Meiling's face immediately broke into a big smile.
"Oh! I misunderstood..." That's right, Mr. Bai didn't say that she was his girlfriend, so why did she start thinking such nonsense!
Bai Yajing sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. Oh no, she'd been exposed... Fourth Uncle, good luck to you!
However... this Comrade Liu is to her liking; his personality is so generous and straightforward, not at all awkward.
The two got along quite well, and they ate dinner at home that evening.
After seeing the person off, I chatted with my godmother for a while before going back to my room to rest.
Meanwhile, the top official in Shanghai was somewhat bewildered when he received the call from the military region.
However, upon hearing the crucial point, he immediately understood the purpose of the call.
"Old Chief, I happen to know about what you're talking about. I've already taken some people to the Qin family to see the old leader."
The old leader has already reprimanded the two Qin brothers; they were indeed in the wrong…
As he spoke, he told everything he knew. His words implied a plea for the Qin family; after all, his old leader had dedicated his life to the country and had promoted him, and he couldn't bear to see him ruin his reputation in his later years. Alas!
Unfortunately, he was facing someone who was intolerant of any flaws.
A powerful shout came from the microphone: "Foolish! Why are you protecting two people who persecute ordinary people, and are even descendants of martyrs?"
If everyone acted like them, doing whatever they pleased and being lawless, where would the people go to seek redress for their grievances?
That girl from the Bai family can get help from the military, but what about the others? Did I misjudge you back then?
"Huh? When did you become so unable to distinguish right from wrong? Humph! Let me tell you, this is not negotiable! Since I called you, I already know enough about this! The evidence is right in front of you, are you blind?"
The top leader was once a soldier under the old commander, and even after so many years, he was still intimidated by him, so he immediately gave up on pleading for leniency.
In fact, he himself was quite disgusted by some of the Qin brothers' actions, but he endured it for the sake of his old leader.
Now that he heard his old superior was angry, he made up his mind and quickly apologized.
"Old sir, please don't be angry. Take care of yourself. It was all my fault! I know what to do now. Please calm down!"
After hanging up the phone, his back was soaked with sweat.
He shook his head helplessly and chuckled, "The old commander still has the same temper."
He wanted to be upright and incorruptible, intolerant of any wrongdoing, but this wasn't the military; in many situations, he had no choice...
