I kept asking, "Who introduced you? Explain clearly."
놛 lowered his head slightly and quickly answered: "It was Teacher Cui from the second grade. She is my cousin. She was the one who introduced Xu Tong and I. At that time, the cousin's original intention was to match us up as a couple."
The corners of my mouth slightly raised, and suddenly I revealed a meaningful smile, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "Is this really the case? You made it up to fool me, right?"
His expression tensed up, and he waved his hands hastily, answering firmly, "It's absolutely true, there is definitely such a thing. And my cousin and I have already agreed on the route."
I jokingly said, "What do you mean by unified approach? It's clearly collusion."
After hearing what I said, he was stunned for a moment, and then a silly smile appeared on his face, with a bit of embarrassment and embarrassment in that smile. Although he looks honest and simple, he is actually very thoughtful and knows how to speak and act in moderation.
I didn't stop there, but changed the subject and asked, "How come everyone knows about your marriage, which is such a big thing? Is there any hidden reason behind it?"
She said slowly: "My family is well off, and Xu Tong and I decided to hold the wedding banquet when we are well off. Since we are both young, we can wait. So we got the marriage certificate and became a legal couple without making it public."
After hearing 놛's response, 뀞꿗 felt relieved, but my doubts were not completely eliminated, so I continued to ask: "Is the child born by Xu Tong really yours? There are rumors outside that you didn't live together after marriage, so how did this child come from?"
Xiang Qianjin was slightly startled, then explained: "After we got the marriage certificate, Xu Tong did mention that she wanted me to move into the house she bought before marriage. But as a grown man, how could I live in a house my wife bought herself? It would make me look so incompetent. So, I didn't move in. However, I would stay at her place for two days every Wednesday and Sunday, and naturally, we had a child that way."
I hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Then why did you divorce again?"
He lowered his head and thought for a while before slowly answering, "It's better if... we are compatible."
I shook my head gently: "This reason is too general and lacks persuasiveness. It's hard to convince me."
놛 looked embarrassed and asked tentatively: "County Magistrate Guan, when I went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the divorce agreement, the staff wrote the reason for the divorce like this. So how can I...what should I say to be more appropriate?"
I thought for a moment and suggested, "If you put it this way, after you married Xu Tong, you found that she was particularly vain and liked to show off and compete with others. Just because you were County Magistrate Guan's driver, she often boasted in front of others that she was County Magistrate Guan's daughter, which caused you unnecessary trouble and rumors. But considering that she was pregnant at the time, you kept it to yourself and didn't mention divorce. After the child was born, she had a relative abroad who wanted to help her with immigration procedures and hoped that you could go with them. But you were not willing to leave your hometown, so you finally decided to divorce her."
After listening to me, he nodded thoughtfully, and then repeated the passage word for word as I suggested. I leaned over from the back seat of the car and patted her on the shoulder, giving her encouragement and affirmation.
Seeing that I suddenly showed concern about this matter, Xiao Xiang guessed something, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "County Magistrate Guan, is that group planning to harm you?"
I sighed, with a bit of helplessness and worry in my tone: "It's still uncertain at the moment, but we can't be on guard. We have to be prepared in advance. I'm away these two days. If we talk to you, just say what I just taught you. There are some things that we want to verify clearly, which will take some time. When I come back, I will naturally have a way to deal with it."
Xiao Xiang nodded slightly, then fell silent and focused on driving. There was silence in the car, except for the slight roar of the engine.
I looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the car window, but my thoughts had already drifted away and I couldn't help but fall into deep thought again.
Since Zhang Weiguo could afford to give me 50,000 yuan, why would he mention the beauty card worth 20,000 yuan that his wife gave to Xu Tong? This obviously makes sense. But what is strange is that after confessing this matter, why didn't Tian Zhenyu and others report it to Kuang Tiexiang, but only mentioned that Zhang Weiguo bribed me?
What are they planning? Could it be that you have this trump card that can kill me hidden in your hands, but you haven't revealed it yet? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel worried again.
A lie, no matter how perfectly packaged it is, is still a lie. Even if Xiao Xiang appears to be calm and composed in front of Tian Zhenyu and others, as long as they catch the slightest clue, the truth will eventually surface.
What's more, if Yue Mingyuan is really determined to target me, then all my preparations will probably be in vain. After all, Xu Tong and her daughter were like hostages at the moment, tightly held in my hands, and I could do something to me at any time.
Or maybe, Feng Lei was doing something behind Yue Mingyuan's back? Based on the past disputes between Shen Mengzhao and I, he has every motive and is entirely possible to use Tian Zhenyu and others to investigate me. What we lack now is to confirm all the evidence so that I can no longer recover.
Just when my thoughts were in turmoil and full of doubts, Lu Yuting's phone call suddenly came in. I quickly answered the call and heard her voice deliberately lowered to a very low level, as if she was afraid of being heard by others: "County Magistrate Guan, have you left the airport?"
I subconsciously glanced out the window to confirm my current location, and then calmly replied, "It's almost time. I estimate it will be gone in a few minutes."
She then asked, "What time is your flight?"
I replied, "The flight is at 8:10 p.m."
She seemed relieved and said, "It's still not too late. After you enter the terminal, come directly to Starbucks. I'll be waiting for you here."
I was about to ask why, but there was a busy tone on the other end of the phone and she suddenly hung up.
When I arrived at the airport, I did as she said and went straight to the Starbucks in the terminal. I saw her at a glance in a quiet corner of the store. She wore a pair of sunglasses, and her whole body exuded a mysterious aura, just like a female spy who came to make a contact in a spy movie.
I walked over and sat down opposite her. She nodded to me slightly, then looked around vigilantly, as if checking if there was anything suspicious or unusual.
I was the first to break the silence and asked, "Today is also Sunday, why did you come back suddenly?"
She lowered her voice and whispered, "Mr. Feng wants to see me."
I looked at her with a wary look, and after the waiter brought the coffee, I asked, "Did Mr. Feng ask you to come see me?"
A sneer flashed across her lips, and she said with a bit of disdain: "If you let me come to see you, would I be so cautious?"
I was somewhat puzzled, but also had doubts. I stared at her and said, "Are you here just to see me off?"
She gently put down the coffee cup and was silent for a moment, as if she was organizing her words. Then she looked at me seriously and said, "I'm here to advise you."
I frowned slightly, and asked inquiringly, "Persuade me?"
She nodded solemnly, "If you continue to make unnecessary counterattacks, Yue Mingyuan will be very happy."
