50 A Misplaced Reunion | Cannot Be Ended
Jiang Yu had no way of telling Lin Weifeng everything. Once she was involved, he didn't know how Miao Zheng would play tricks on her.
If only he himself were in trouble, he would be able to accept the trouble as the status quo of existence.
If being apart for a while can ensure her safety, Jiang Yu is willing to compromise.
So he didn't object.
After the wedding, Jiang Yu went to find Director Zhang, not in the office, but in the basement badminton hall.
"The anonymous report has been received." Director Zhang had just finished a round and was sitting in a chair to rest.
Jiang Yu unscrewed a bottle of water and gave it to him: "Isn't Director Zhang surprised?"
"What's so strange about that?" Director Zhang took the water and took a sip. "Didn't you report everything?"
"But you told me not to meet."
"I told you not to meet because I wanted to ensure your safety."
Miao Zheng and Lin Haidong were the two gods in the police force back then. They had complementary shooting skills and a tacit understanding in solving cases.
The only difference is that Miao Zheng looks more handsome, is fully responsible for interviews with TV stations and print media, and often appears in public.
At first, cooperating with the media in a series of work was just the icing on the cake of his career. However, with the deepening of public opinion supervision and the increasing transparency of criminal cases driven by media competition, the focus of Miao Zheng's work has moved further and further away from judicial power.
Then, in the process of promotion, it was always Lin Haidong who was chosen.
His frequent appearances also left a deep impression on the criminal organization.
Giving gifts, giving gifts to people, a series of glamorous temptations followed one after another, gradually corroding his heart.
Taking this as a warning, Director Zhang did not want Jiang Yu to show up when he was training him.
Even in a serious interview like the one with Gui Hua for the Wenyuan Encyclopedia, he was only allowed to show his back.
Jiang Yu asked Director Zhang: "But, aren't you really afraid that I will betray the organization?"
"I was afraid," Director Zhang smiled. "That's why I didn't suppress the news of you being reported."
"Why."
"Miao Zheng wants you to betray us. We know that, and Miao Zheng knows that we know. We also know that Miao Zheng knows that we know. As long as we're all in the dark, or in the light, we're all on the same starting line," Director Zhang glanced at Jiang Yu. "This way, the choice is always in your hands."
Jiang Yu listened quietly without saying anything.
Director Zhang said, "If we make the news of your report public, anyone except us can suppress your choices."
"You know, my choice won't change." Jiang Yu said firmly.
"You don't have to answer me like that," Director Zhang wiggled his ankles. "Humanity's cruelty, forbearance, darkness, greed, and even collapse can all occur without awareness. Miao Zheng wants to play with all of this in you. Even if you can guarantee that you'll remain unmoved, I wouldn't dare accept it."
Jiang Yu didn't say anything.
Director Zhang: "Is he starting to threaten you?"
"Um."
"Who?"
"Tell me, I found my mother."
"It's the same thing again."
Jiang Yu knew that the group behind Wang Heng had also used Miao Zheng's unattainable lover to control his mind.
But Miao Zheng couldn't control himself.
Director Zhang sighed and said, "I have suspended your daily duties within the bureau. In the near future, you will take some time to rest and prepare for Operation Fanhua in Beiwan."
Jiang Yu: "Got it."
After the grand occasion, there was desolation. That night, Lin Weifeng's room was particularly cold.
She lay on the bed typing on the keyboard, thinking she could numb her mind with work as usual.
But the legal theories she typed out were constantly deleted by her.
Nothing is right, but it won't stop.
Gu Chengxiu knocked on the door and brought dinner in for her. As he walked in, he said, "The quality of dresses nowadays is really bad. After wearing them for a few hours, the wound on your back has become red again. It's only been a few days."
Lin Weifeng took the steaming hot meal and said, "It's okay. It doesn't hurt much now."
Lin Weifeng didn’t eat too much at noon, so he picked up the bowl and ate it up immediately, his taste buds being satisfied instantly.
Gu Chengxiu helped her apply the medicine and chatted: "I told your dad on the way that even if it's a fake wedding, we can have a real bridal chamber. We are still guessing what excuse you will use for not going home tonight."
"Yes, why wouldn't I go home?" Lin Weifeng replied absentmindedly.
Gu Chengxiu saw that she had other thoughts and asked, "What happened with Xiao Jiang?"
"Nothing."
"I used to have stars in my eyes when I saw him, but now that we're married, why do my eyes seem dull?"
Lin Weifeng joked, "Once you get it, you don't cherish it. We bad girls are like that."
But she herself was not smiling.
Gu Chengxiu said: "I saw the Huxiao embroidery that Xiao Jiang did herself. The lines were unstable, but full of strength, and the finished product also had a unique flavor."
"He has always been very thoughtful." Lin Weifeng said realistically after swallowing the food in his mouth.
Gu Chengxiu: "There is a heart, but there are still contradictions?"
Lin Weifeng said: "If you have too many thoughts, conflicts will arise."
Gu Chengxiu smiled knowingly: "In their line of work, being attentive is a normal thing. If they don't, they'd be unprofessional."
Hearing this, Lin Weifeng turned around and asked, "Mom, has Dad ever been wrong before?"
"Yes, during Operation Hundred Flowers, I didn't know anything, but I always had a bad feeling. I told him several times not to participate, but he just wouldn't listen. I remember we had several arguments without a clear beginning or end, but because of the information asymmetry, the arguments always came down to whether he loved me or not," Gu Chengxiu laughed a few times. "When we couldn't come to a conclusion, I gave up."
Lin Weifeng held his chin with one hand, bit his chopsticks, frowned and thought: "I think I am the same today."
"What?"
"I want him to be more open with me, but when he expresses it, it revolves around love and not love."
Gu Chengxiu was the most experienced in this area. She slowed down the pressure on her hand applying the medicine and said to her daughter with a smile, "Actually, Xiao Jiang will also know. He will know that you are not what you say, but what you really mean. Until you know that you care about him."
"Today is the first time I've felt that mutual understanding isn't a good thing. If we can't make a fuss, won't we be unable to win arguments in the future?" Lin Weifeng rolled his eyes. "I don't want to just let it go like this every time."
"Arguments that don't involve moral issues are inherently about different positions; there's no winner or loser. If there is, it's always because one party is willing to admit defeat."
Lin Weifeng suddenly came back to his senses and joked with Gu Chengxiu, "So Old Lin is always the one who is willing?"
Gu Chengxiu scratched the back of her head.
Lin Weifeng laughed for a while, then began to sigh.
"Everyone is an independent individual. Even a couple will make their own life choices." Gu Chengxiu massaged her back to stimulate blood circulation. "If I asked you to do secret work for cultural relics, would you take the initiative to tell Xiao Jiang?"
Lin Weifeng thought about it and decided that he really couldn’t do that.
In fact, she knew in her heart that she didn't care that Jiang Yu had a secret, nor did she doubt that he had really colluded with the Miao Group. She just... felt worried.
Worried that he was in danger.
She chewed a few pieces of water spinach, opened her cell phone, and wanted to say something to Jiang Yu.
When my fingertips were about to touch the keyboard, I felt unwilling. I didn't want to speak actively, but I also felt that my worry was unnecessary and deliberate.
Dangerous situations must be commonplace for him, otherwise, how could the plane encountering clear-air turbulence not have alarmed him?
His first reaction that day was even to help her fasten her seat belt.
The night falls without knowing the dawn, and we are in love without knowing it.
Lin Weifeng lay on the bed and called out, "Mom."
Gu Chengxiu: “Hmm?”
Lin Weifeng casually chatted about something unrelated to his concerns: "Speaking of which, Old Lin actually quarreled with you."
"Of course they quarrel. Even the most loving couples will quarrel."
"I haven't seen it."
Gu Chengxiu: "I've never seen you have any objections to Xiao Jiang. Xiao Jiang doesn't seem like someone who would say 'no' to you for no reason. Aren't you two having a conflict now?"
While they were chatting and laughing, Lin Weifeng received a message on his phone.
She glanced at it subconsciously, with a hint of anticipation in her heart.
Expectations come true——
It’s news from Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu sent her two messages:
[You can pause it, but you can't stop it. Wait for me to do something. ]
【Don’t go to North Bay City.】
The street lights outside the window flickered into the house, and the small screen reflected the big world.
On the other side of the screen, Jiang Yu was sweating profusely on the training ground.
Bullet after bullet hit the dripping water droplets, and I felt a bitterness in my heart; lap after lap of 400 meters, I took advantage of the momentum and continued to run, and I was sweating profusely.
He searched all the movies, looked up food reviews, and planned an ordinary date.
The moment I wanted to extend the invitation, my heavy heart closed again.
He even began to blame himself, wondering where he had been before and why he was only now making an effort to get close to her.
Lin Weifeng stared at the screen for a long time, but the decisive and resolute words made her confused.
She continued the conversation and said to Gu Chengxiu, "Who said he can't say 'no'?"
Gu Chengxiu asked: "What did you say?"
"Tell me not to go to Beiwan City." Lin Weifeng paused, "How did he know I was going there?"
She had just received the news that she was going to North Bay City two days ago and hadn't had time to tell anyone.
January is the month of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, and time flies by.
By the middle of the month, Lin Weifeng's injuries were almost healed.
The legal opinion given to the administrative team was revised again and again before it was finally finalized.
Mr. Li found a white porcelain vase with a floral curve pattern at an auction, but the issue involved the "good faith acquisition" systems of different countries. After one meeting after another, a satisfactory solution was finally achieved.
Interpol's liaison office in Jingjiang needed legal support, and Director Zhang accepted internal advice and chose Jinhe Law Firm.
On this day, the liaison office held an appointment ceremony for the "Cultural Relics Protection and Recovery Legal Affairs Department", and Sheng Xin took Lin Weifeng to the Jingjiang Center Building to participate.
The sky froze at night and the roads in the old community were damaged in the morning.
Lin Weifeng's car was stuck in traffic for a long time before reaching the city center, but unfortunately the parking lot was full.
A few hundred meters away, a police car happened to be on duty and cleared a parking space, so she parked there.
He turned off the engine, opened the window, and searched through his bag for food. This series of actions followed closely, and his mouth was covered with the sugar stains on the glutinous rice ball.
She checked the time on her phone every once in a while to make sure she had eaten enough and was not late.
As I was reading, I received a new message from Jiang Yu.
Bullies receive:
【Good morning. 】
[It is said that when pursuing a girl, you should start with the simplest things and hard work will make up for your shortcomings.]
Lin Weifeng held the phone and slowly clicked a question mark: [? ]
Bullies receive:
[It is also said that the speed at which a boy appears in front of a girl can reflect the degree of his love for her.]
【Look in your right rearview mirror.】
Lin Weifeng puffed his lips, not yet swallowing the glutinous rice, and glanced at the rearview mirror following the "instructions".
Jiang Yuzhen was standing in the sunshine not far away, wearing dark casual clothes, carrying a bag on one shoulder, looking fresh and clean.
This was the first time Lin Weifeng and Jiang Yu met in these days.
However, Lin Weifeng threw a few words over: [I haven't encountered anything that requires police dispatch.]
Very arrogant.
