Chapter 252 Give You One Night
Lian Zhuo's attention was not there. He stretched out his hand to block Jiang Jingyan's side and escorted him in the opposite direction of the noise. "They got here first."
"Yeah." Jiang Jingyan withdrew his gaze and strode towards the box.
When he passed by the teahouse staff, the vague words "Mr. Yan" made him frown.
Lian Zhuo also heard it, nodded, stepped back, and disappeared into the crowd.
There were three people sitting in the box, Fan Ruilin, Liang Jing, and Zheng Yuan.
Jiang Jingyan bowed respectfully and greeted, "Inspector Fan."
He took off his coat and sat down, nodding slightly to the remaining two people as a greeting.
Liang Jing knew that he was feeling uncomfortable, but she didn't pay any attention to him and continued making tea.
Fan Ruilin smiled and said, "Secretary Liang asked to meet with us. Does he have any instructions?"
"How could I dare to give you instructions?" Liang Jing also laughed and took out a confidential document. "You should have received the official letter this morning. The leader wants you to personally oversee all prosecution procedures for the old case of corruption in the inter-city tourism zone seven years ago."
Fan Ruilin glanced at Jiang Jingyan and said, "Is this appropriate? Given my relationship with Lao Jiang, according to the rules and regulations, I have to avoid him."
"The leadership has considered this. You and Mr. Jiang are sworn brothers, but the outside world doesn't know. Besides, this is a last resort. The Municipal Bureau has already filed a case and will immediately transfer it to the Procuratorate for review. As you know, the plan to eliminate the Meng Party has just been launched, and the leadership can't find a suitable candidate to take on this matter."
When this was mentioned, Liang Jing became furious.
Jiang Jingyan's report was intercepted and Chen Qing was asked to report it. However, he handed over the evidence and witnesses to the Municipal Bureau without authorization. The Bureau had to file a case, but it had no right to prosecute and had to transfer the case.
The superiors are afraid of alerting the enemy, so they can only find someone who can take the responsibility from among their own people.
"I'll do whatever the leader tells me to do," Fan Ruilin said, half jokingly and half seriously, as he took the document. "I'm still holding onto the hot potato of Yan's tax evasion and smuggling, and now another one's been thrown down. It's rare to have such a lively situation before retirement."
Liang Jing joked, "You want to retire? That won't do. Without a backbone, what are you going to do for us?"
She was good at adjusting the atmosphere and conveying the instructions from above clearly while chatting and laughing, without making Fan Ruilin feel that he was being instructed by a younger person.
After some chatting and greetings, Zheng Yuan never participated in the topic, just agreed with a smile and observed Jiang Jingyan from the corner of his eye.
The latter had a blank expression on his face and looked absent-minded.
"Mr. Ji from the bank is missing. I suspect Mr. Meng has him secretly arrange a retreat." He lowered his voice, skimming the foam from the rim of his teacup. "Don't worry, let's tackle each case one by one. Arrest Yan Baiqing first. Without the Yan family as a scapegoat, Mr. Meng will undoubtedly show his weakness in a panic, and the Chen family's case will proceed smoothly."
Now the provincial troops are divided into two groups. The city side is led by Fan Ruilin, who strictly interrogates the Feng couple and digs deep into the Yan family, intending to cover the action of eliminating the Meng party by the superiors; Zheng Yuan leads the team in the south of the country, who strictly interrogates Xu Jing and touches the core part of the money house, waiting for Meng Hongwen to jump off the wall and fall into the trap.
Originally, the province wanted to use the Chen family's old case to prolong the battle and buy time, but Mr. Jiang didn't listen to a word he said. On the way here, Zheng Yuan heard Liang Jing cursing over and over again.
Jiang Jingyan didn't say a word, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingers, his face firm and stern.
He asked Lian Zhuo to find out what happened in Yan Baiqing's box. Twenty minutes had already passed, which was too slow.
At this moment, Chen Qing woke up in the back seat of the car.
Yan Baiqing felt that the ambulance was too slow to arrive, so he asked the driver to contact the traffic police bureau and drove his own car all the way.
"Lie down." He pressed Chen Qing's shoulders, "Let's go to the hospital immediately."
"I'm fine."
"We'll talk about it after the inspection."
Chen Qing's cheeks were covered with the cool, smooth fabric of her trousers. This position was too delicate, and she felt uncomfortable. She strained her neck and raised her head. "It's nothing, I have low blood sugar. It happens all the time."
"Lose weight with low blood sugar? You're not an actor, you don't need photogenic standards."
“Concerts are always videotaped.”
Yan Baiqing laughed angrily, "When you hold a concert in the future, you will sell tickets for the concert. Who will watch the video besides you?"
Chen Qing was embarrassed and retorted stubbornly, "Fans will watch it and even edit the clips."
"You attract fans with your piano skills, not your looks."
Before he finished speaking, the car stopped outside the emergency building.
Chen Qing jumped up and grabbed the handrail tightly, his face showing shock and fear. "I'm not going to the hospital. I told you everything is fine."
Yan Baiqing said patiently, "Be obedient and just do the inspection."
She shook her head stubbornly, "I was scared in the hospital."
"Qing'er."
The man's face was full of anger. Chen Qing bit her lower lip tightly, tears in her eyes, and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
He sighed softly, stretched out his hand and pulled, "Go home after the examination. I promise not to stay in the hospital."
“No…”
Chen Qing rarely resisted anything these days. As long as Yan Baiqing's request was not excessive, she basically obeyed.
"Are you really scared?" Yan Baiqing leaned down and whispered softly, "Qing'er, is there no other reason?"
Chen Qing lowered her eyelashes. The neon lights outside the car window cast a small red spot on the bridge of her nose, making her look playful and coquettish. "No, I have never liked hospitals, and..."
"And what."
She pursed her lips, her voice as thin as a mosquito's hum, "I don't like people watching..."
Yan Baiqing suddenly realized it, was silent for a few seconds, and then chuckled, "Do you think I will treat you like I treat my mother?"
Hearing this, the driver glanced at the rearview mirror and snorted coldly without showing any expression.
A woman who is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.
Chen Qing twisted his fingers, didn't answer, and didn't look up.
After a long while, Yan Baiqing compromised and turned his face away. "Let the doctor wait at home and do a preliminary diagnosis and screening. If there are no other factors, there is no need to go to the hospital."
Her shoulders slumped slightly, and she asked cautiously, "Do you still want to go back to Xianxuan Teahouse?"
"Um."
"Please pack me a portion of jelly."
"It proves that you are fine and in a good mood to eat and drink, and comfort Jingyan's heart, right?"
Chen Qing froze and his breathing stopped for a moment.
Yan Baiqing untied his tie, and the smell of alcohol drifted into the car with his movements. "Qing'er, I don't want to play this game with you anymore. I'll give you one night. Stay at the Yan family or go back to the Jiang family. Tomorrow morning, tell me your answer."
"Didn't I already say I'd wait for you at the Yan family—"
"Then put away these little tricks." He said in a more serious tone, firmly pinning her wrists to the leather seat. "Also, put away your thoughts about your ex-boyfriend and the Jiang family, and behave yourself."
Chen Qing's stomach and brain were a mess. Yan Baiqing had played the gentleman for so long and didn't want to play it anymore.
In the garden that morning, he said he was a 'normal man', which seemed to be a warning.
…
It was not right for Yan Baiqing to suddenly leave the two chamber of commerce presidents in the teahouse without accompanying them for socializing. It looked like they would not be back home until late at night.
Chen Qing watched him through the car window and took the opportunity to observe Jiang Jingyan's car in the parking space.
Yan Baiqing exposed her true thoughts. Indeed, Jiang Jingyan was in the teahouse and would definitely hear that she had fainted. He would definitely chase her to the hospital and then make a decision even more extreme than last time.
Jiang Jingyan is a man who will not allow things to get out of control. Last time he just sent her to the Imperial Mansion. If something unexpected happens this time, 'elopement' will not be a joke.
The car stopped outside Yan's house. Chen Qing pushed the door open, and the driver advised in a sullen tone, "Miss Chen, please be careful where you step. Don't go the wrong way."
She paused and turned back, "What's your name?"
"Mr. Yan calls me Lao Qian."
"Old Qian." She stood up and stood outside the car door, her tone colder. "If you don't like me, tell Mr. Yan. Will he kick me out?"
"…Won't."
"I can't stand you. Tell Mr. Yan. Will he replace you?"
The driver fell silent, his face turning pale and blue.
Chen Qing slammed the car door shut with her backhand and smiled sweetly, "Old Qian, it's dark, please be careful and don't lose your composure again and again."
