The people on the 18th floor were speechless instantly.
Some people may not have heard of who Song Luting is, but who in the Inspection Office doesn’t know people like He Yuan and Feng Yuan?
Who doesn’t know about the Criminal Police Brigade in Beijing?
This is probably the person that most people in the circle want to work with.
Luo Qian was shocked instantly. He glanced at Pan Mingyue behind him and instantly felt that she was taller. He exclaimed to Sister Liu opposite him: "Fuck, I always thought she was just a bronze player!"
Thinking of how he had been praising Fan Tongya in front of her, Luo Qian couldn't help but touch his head. Then he looked at the man who had implied Pan Mingyue before, and deliberately spoke louder to Sister Liu.
His voice was actually quite loud and many people around him heard it.
The man who had been implying something about Pan Mingyue was suddenly speechless.
Fan Tongya also glanced at Pan Mingyue, pursed her lips, and her eyes deepened a little.
There are no secrets in the office.
...
...
The incident involving Pan Mingyue spread not only on the 18th floor, but people on other floors also heard about it.
Even Section Chief Jiang who was in the office was extremely surprised. He took the feedback report and read it for a long time. In the beginning, he brought Pan Mingyue to his department entirely because of Jiang Yifan. Later, he really felt a sense of appreciation for her talent and paved the way for her.
But he never imagined that this student, whom his daughter had asked him to protect, ultimately did not need his protection at all.

Get off work in the evening.
Pan Mingyue saw Lu Zhaoying's car parked not far away, and said goodbye to Luo Qian and Sister Liu.
The two were deeply impressed by Lu Zhaoying's car yesterday. Today, they knew that Pan Mingyue, who was able to participate in a big case seven years ago, might have some unknown secrets. They didn't ask much, waved to Pan Mingyue, and said goodbye directly.
"Do you feel that there is something indescribable about Xiao Pan?" Sister Liu looked at Pan Mingyue's back and couldn't help but say, "She is quiet and quiet, which is not in line with her peers."
Luo Qian glanced at her and scratched his head: "Sister Liu, this is a lady, right?"
Sister Liu stopped talking to Luo Qian.
Lu Zhaoying was not in the car. He parked the car on the side of the road and squatted there, talking to a homeless man sitting on the side of the road.
In March, the temperature in Beijing is not very low.
When Pan Mingyue arrived, Lu Zhaoying was listening carefully to the homeless man's confession.
Seeing her, Lu Zhaoying, who was squatting at the intersection, raised his head and said, "Go to the car and wait for me first."
He mouthed the words, and because he was squatting with his back to the light, his face no longer had the frivolous look that was usually seen on his face, but instead looked clearer and more serious.
Pan Mingyue looked at him for a few seconds, thought about it, and then got into Lu Zhaoying's car.
Lu Zhaoying still squatted there, listening to the homeless man's words.
He waited until the other person finished speaking before waving at the homeless man.
The homeless man was not dirty. He had a full beard and a pair of eyes that looked a little vicissitudes. He said to Lu Zhaoying, "I have been at this intersection all the time."
Lu Zhaoying stood up, smiled at him, and walked towards the car.
Lu Zhaoying had communicated with the homeless man twice, and he was now very calm when talking about his family.
He understood the homeless man's current thoughts from his words.
When he got in the car, Pan Mingyue was already sitting in the back seat.
Lu Zhaoying handed the bag to her.
In addition to her medicine, there was also a cup of milk tea.
This was her and Qin Ran’s favorite flavor in high school.
Lu Zhaoying took her out for a meal, and then drove to Beijing University. Song Luting bought a house near Beijing University, but Pan Mingyue rarely lived there.
Qin Ran and her group were very careful with Pan Mingyue. Lu Zhaoying stopped the car on the road to Beijing University. He looked in the rearview mirror and said softly, "We're here. Be careful."
"Thank you." Pan Mingyue took a sip of milk tea, thanked Lu Zhaoying, and then got out of the car.
**
After dinner, it was already late, the street lights gradually lit up, and there were not many people on the road.
Pan Mingyue walked slowly towards the dormitory building. The hustle and bustle around her seemed incompatible with her.
Downstairs in the dormitory, many couples were bidding farewell to each other reluctantly.
Pan Mingyue pushed her black-framed glasses and walked quietly towards the dormitory building.
But his eyes were a little dazed and I didn’t know what he was thinking.
Just as he was about to enter the dormitory building, his arm was pulled hard.
Pan Mingyue came back to her senses from her contemplation. In the flickering light and shadow, she saw Feng Ci's eyes. His face looked even more fierce than before. "How long are you going to make a fuss for an irrelevant person?"
These words pulled Pan Mingyue out of her memories.
She looked at Feng Ci, who looked much more mature than he did two years ago, with deep brows and eyes, and his windbreaker was as clean and neat as ever.
Pan Mingyue pursed her lips and was about to pull her arm free when she felt someone pulling her back lightly.
Feng Ci involuntarily took a step back. He looked across and the first thing that caught his eye was the light reflected by the other person's earrings. Feng Ci couldn't help but squint his eyes and saw the person across from him clearly.
The other person was wearing casual clothes, with his collar unbuttoned and a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He looked a bit casual and had an arrogant look on his face.
Looks somewhat familiar.
“You go up.” Lu Zhaoying lowered his head, looked at Pan Mingyue, and casually flicked the ash in his hand.
Pan Mingyue didn't expect that after she and Lu Zhaoying parted ways, he didn't leave and kept following her.
She couldn't help but think of many times in the past when the other party had not left. For a moment, she forgot the memories that were brought up by the sudden encounter with Feng Ci. She just nodded to Lu Zhaoying and then went into the dormitory.
"Are you okay? Did something happen at work?" When they arrived at the dormitory, the three roommates had all returned. Jiang Yifan looked at Pan Mingyue and saw that something seemed to be wrong with her, so he couldn't help but ask.
Pan Mingyue came back to her senses and smiled at Jiang Yifan: "It's okay."
Finally, he asked, "Is your father in the Inspection Office?"
Jiang Yifan remained calm: "Yeah, maybe you two are still working together."
Pan Mingyue glanced at her and said nothing. She just took the towel and went to the bathroom. She subconsciously went to the balcony to look. Downstairs, Lu Zhaoying and Feng Ci were gone.

The next day.
On Thursday, Pan Mingyue went to work as usual.
Today she came by subway and got off at the street next door. Because she arrived very early, there were not many people on the street.
At the intersection, I happened to meet Sister Liu who had just got off the bus.
"Mingyue!" Sister Liu waved at her holding a briefcase. Her car was restricted today, so she didn't drive here.
Pan Mingyue bit her pancake and smiled at Sister Liu, "Good morning, Sister Liu."
Looks like he's in good spirits.
When Sister Liu came over, she also saw the homeless man not far away. He was still in the same place where he had talked to Lu Zhaoying yesterday. He was slowly getting up and staring in one direction.
"You are looking at him, he looks quite pitiful." Sister Liu saw the direction Pan Mingyue was going and couldn't help but explain, "One of his twin sons was admitted to University A and the other to Beijing University. When he was sending them to Beijing, there was a car accident at this intersection. His two sons and his wife died in the accident, leaving him a half-disabled person. Since then, he has been standing at this intersection and has not left. Everyone in the company knows about it and sometimes brings him some things."
Pan Mingyue listened quietly to Sister Liu's words. When she entered the gate of the Inspection Institute, she glanced at the homeless man behind her.
Most people from the Audit Office arrived very early.
Pan Mingyue and Sister Liu went to the lounge to make tea and coffee first. Just as they poured the water, Section Chief Jiang and his assistant arrived.
"What does Vice President Liu mean? Why should this kind of task be assigned to the 18th floor? I have already said I will not take it. I am responsible for the people on the 18th floor. Where is President He? I will go find him!" Chief Jiang's angry voice could be heard from a distance.
Section Chief Jiang has always been a very nice person. This was the first time Pan Mingyue heard him sound so angry.
"It should be Jiang Dong's task," Sister Liu, who is considered a veteran in the office, frowned when she heard the voice. Seeing Pan Mingyue's confusion, she explained, "Political circles are like this. Even if you don't fight, you are still a thorn in the eyes of others. Jiang Dong's case has not been solved for five months. The higher-ups have issued a notice that it must be solved within half a month. Everyone is shirking responsibility. But someone has to do this, so it's passed to Section Chief Jiang. If something goes wrong, we will all be implicated."
Sister Liu shook her head.
Pan Mingyue took a sip of tea and said nothing. She had heard of Jiang Dong's case before, but it had no direct connection with her. She returned to her seat and began to fill out the application form.
During the lunch break, she followed Sister Liu and delivered the application form to the Human Resources Department on the 17th floor.
The door of the office on the 17th floor was not closed. She heard the voice coming from inside. It was Section Chief Jiang's voice. "Don't try to pass the buck to us on the 18th floor. If you two factions are fighting and you want to take me down, just say so. Don't try these empty words!"
"I didn't assign these tasks," Vice Dean Liu said calmly, in a completely different state from when he was in Section Chief Jiang's office before. "Section Chief Jiang, if you feel you are not competent, you can resign and I will find someone who is."
This is how the struggle between the two factions works. Section Chief Jiang knows that he has been tricked by others and has blocked their way. If he fails this time, there will be another time.
There were a myriad of thoughts in his eyes, and half of the people in the Inspection Office had been replaced.
He is not part of any film, but has become a stumbling block to others. He is afraid that he will not be able to escape this time, but before he leaves, he cannot implicate his subordinates.
After a long while, he looked up tiredly and said, "I will resign. People on the 18th floor, you are not allowed to..."
"Deputy Director Liu, we have taken Jiang Dong's case." Pan Mingyue stood at the door and interrupted Section Chief Jiang.
Vice Dean Liu glanced at the door and saw a young girl who was still wet behind the ears. He sneered, not caring too much but also looking down on her with sarcasm, "You?"
The contempt in his eyes and in his words seemed to burst out.
Regarding the Jiangdong incident, the higher-ups gave an ultimatum of half a month. Everyone knows that the higher-ups haven’t solved the case in five months. What can be done in half a month? Where did this young girl come from who is making such wild remarks?
Pan Mingyue put her hand on her glasses, her eyelids drooped, and said gently and calmly: "Yes, I."
