0032 37 “Those who want to see me will come naturally.”
Early in the morning, perhaps because he had satisfied his sexual desires, Zhou Xiye woke up very early.
She nudged the person next to her, and only after Zhou Pei opened his eyes did she say, "Get up, I still have to go to work."
Zhou Pei was still a little sleepy, and he unconsciously responded, "Um... okay."
Then, he pushed his penis further in; his morning erection filled her completely. Zhou Xiye was speechless and tried to move, intending to get up. But Zhou Pei grabbed her waist and thrust twice more.
"Stop, it's too late..."
Zhou Pei opened his eyes, rolled over, pinned her down, and began thrusting. "Then I'll hurry."
Zhou Xiye wrapped his arms around Zhou Pei's neck and hummed along with his rhythm.
After a morning of intercourse, Zhou Xiye's blood was filled with semen, and both of them felt refreshed.
After getting dressed and drying his hair, Zhou Xiye came out of the bathroom.
Zhou Pei prepared breakfast and laid it out. "Eat up, your favorite tomato and meat sauce noodles."
Zhou Xiye picked up his chopsticks, took a bite, nodded with satisfaction, and asked while eating, "Why did you suddenly come back? Did you get things settled in Suzhou?"
"No, it's not that. Something came up in Beijing. General Jiang asked me to bring General Hu here. The higher-ups want to ask him personally; it would cause too much of a stir."
Zhou Pei didn't eat noodles; he drank milk instead.
Zhou Xiye took a couple of bites, then remembered what Ling Xingzhi had said, "So... have they caught who the mastermind is?"
Zhou Pei shook his head, "It's not easy to catch them. They may need to be interrogated again. In the next two days, clerical staff like you who have no connection to the case will be released."
"That's good..." Zhou Xiye nodded. This matter had nothing to do with her, and it should also have nothing to do with Ye Lifeng.
Zhou Pei took a sip of milk and looked at her thoughtfully. Zhou Xiye noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Pei. "What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me?"
Zhou Pei held the milk cup and looked at her, "Sister... the higher-ups want me to do something for them, what do you think?"
Zhou Xiye paused, put down his chopsticks, and said, "You mean, he himself up there..."
Zhou Pei nodded.
"Aren't the Ling family father and son also working for him?"
"Sister, they'll never think there are too many people, right? What do you choose?"
He knew about Zhou Xiye and Ye Lifeng's alliance, but now if the two were on opposite sides, they would be enemies.
Zhou Xiye thought for a moment and said, “It’s not contradictory. You’re doing this for the higher-ups, and I’m doing this for the Premier. The Ling family wants this position, and Ye Lifeng also wants this position. It doesn’t conflict with what’s going on above.”
"That will help the Ling family ascend to the throne."
Zhou Xiye shook his head, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth. "No, if this position belongs to the Chairman, then it's equivalent to him having the final say in the entire Central Committee. Others would be unwilling, so there would definitely be a three-way check and balance. This position is best left to Ye Lifeng."
Zhou Pei thought about it for a moment. He felt that his sister was right, but he also felt that there was something wrong with it. He couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Sister... I'm going to the Tibet Military Region now, I can't stay in Beijing."
Zhou Xiye looked at him in surprise, "What are you going to Tibet for?"
"There's unrest over there."
Zhou Xiye sighed, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "Zhou Pei, you don't need to go to Tibet. I brought you back so you could live a good life, not so you could take risks for me."
Zhou Pei lowered her head and smiled, then raised her hand to look at Zhou Xiye, "Sister, you can't say that. You like Quan, and I will help you, but I also have my own ambitions."
Looking at Zhou Pei's face, Zhou Xiye's gaze softened. "I want you to grow up happily like other children, not for you to..." Before she could finish, Zhou Pei stood up and kissed Zhou Xiye. "Sister..."
This time, the departure was very rushed; the luggage was packed and the Beijing was left almost the next day.
As for the situation inside the Forbidden City, Zhou Xiye had no control over it, nor the ability to do so.
Just half a month later, an uninvited guest arrived, disrupting Zhou Xiye's peaceful life.
Wearing sunglasses, carrying a limited-edition Hermes bag, and sporting an LV lipstick, Wei Luochen walked into Zhou Xiye's office.
Li Xiaocen hurriedly followed behind, "Director, we couldn't stop her no matter what we did... She didn't have an appointment."
Wei Luochen took off her sunglasses and turned to look Li Xiaocen up from head to toe. "I am Secretary Ling's wife. Do I need an appointment to see a mere office director?"
Zhou Xiye stood up and reassured Li Xiaocen, "Go pour two cups of tea."
Wei Luochen spoke up instead, "No need, I'll just say a few words and then leave."
Zhou Xiye raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know where my husband has gone, Director Zhou?"
Zhou Xiye didn't speak, but looked at her calmly.
Wei Luochen stared back.
Zhou Xiye thought Wei Luochen would start cursing arrogantly, but the next second she saw her eyes redden. "Director Zhou, Secretary Ling hasn't come home yet. Do you know where to find him?"
Orders must be obeyed...
He is currently recuperating in a military hospital, and few people know that the higher-ups have mobilized the army.
Ling Qingyun has been extremely busy lately, while Ling Xingzhi has managed to steal a moment of leisure, spending his time in the military hospital in seclusion.
My daily routine consists of getting up, morning exercise, changing my dressings, playing chess, taking a nap, and doing official business.
Documents that need to be reviewed on a regular basis are sent directly to the military hospital.
Playing chess has been one of Ling Xingzhi's most enjoyable activities lately. Playing a couple of games with the veteran who lives downstairs is really great.
"Xiao Ling, aren't you the Party Secretary anymore? Why do you come to play chess with me every day?"
The old man lost miserably and couldn't help but complain.
Ling Xingzhi looked at the chessboard and removed all the old man's black pieces before speaking, "Yes, but he was injured, a work-related injury, so he's getting some rest..."
"Then why doesn't your wife come to see you? You're all alone. I'm an old man, and I have people to keep me company."
Ling Xingzhi chuckled and looked at the chessboard. "Those who want to see me will naturally come."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a nurse came over and said, "Secretary Ling, someone is looking for you."
Ling Xingzhi threw down the chess pieces and said to the old man with a smile, "You see, this is what fate is all about."
