Su Jinyu's originally shy smile froze in an instant, and her eyes became deep, as if she was dragged into a vortex of memories by Li Xiangyun's words.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and the unbearable scenes from her past life flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.
How did she lose herself step by step in the torrent of fate and become a stranger even to herself? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh softly, her heart full of emotion.
Su Jinyu tilted her head slightly, as if she was a little tired, and slowly leaned her head towards Li Xiangyun. Her voice was soft but somewhat helpless: "Well, I have a lot of things to do, I can't be willful."
Li Xiangyun was somewhat overwhelmed by Su Jinyu's sudden closeness, and his body stiffened instantly, as if he had been cast under a spell.
Her face flushed slightly, and she stammered, "You...you don't have to say that. After all, you are the daughter of a handsome man, so why can't you be willful...If you really like Zhou Youchen, get a divorce and then chase him."
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Su Jinyu, her eyes showing both worry and a hint of curiosity.
Su Jinyu couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing this, and the gloom just now seemed to be dispelled.
She smiled and said in a teasing tone: "Don't you like him? Why are you going to give him to you?" That smile was full of teasing for Li Xiangyun.
Li Xiangyun shook his head quickly, his expression serious, his eyes sparkling with sincerity: "He doesn't belong to you, so why should you...anyone can like him, and he can choose to like anyone..."
As she spoke, she gestured with her hands, as if she wanted to pour out all her thoughts.
Su Jinyu looked up at Li Xiangyun's extremely serious expression, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
She couldn't help but stretched out her hand and gently pinched Li Xiangyun's little face, with a doting smile on her face: "You are quite cute..."
The action was natural and intimate, as if the two had known each other for many years.
Li Xiangyun's face turned red all the way to his ears, like a small universe that was ignited, and he instantly exploded: "You dare to pinch me... I'm going to pinch you back!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and threw it towards Su Jinyu. The two of them laughed together in the corridor, and the tense atmosphere in front of them was swept away.
As they were arguing, the door of the ward opened and the doctor came out, saying, "The patient can be admitted to the hospital now."
Qin Xiang came forward and said, "Come and help him with the hospital procedures."
Just as the doctor was about to nod, Luo Ling also stood up and said, "Come and do it for him... Who is bullying you for having no money?"
Qin Xiang said patiently, "Master Luo originally wanted you to come..."
"Don't mention his family. He is standing here just because he is an elder. What are you so proud of?" Luo Ling interrupted her and said to the doctor, "How much? Pay it."
"No..." Qin Xiang objected.
The doctor's clothes were torn to pieces by the two men, his face was full of helplessness and embarrassment, and his two hands were waving in vain, trying to break free but he couldn't get rid of this mess.
At this moment, Su Jinyu seized the opportunity, grabbed Li Xiangyun's arm, and swiftly slipped into the ward. Then he turned around quickly and locked the door neatly with a "click".
When Luo Ling heard the door close, she was instantly furious, her face flushed red like an angry lion. She turned around abruptly, rushed to the door of the ward, raised her hand, and banged on it with all her might.
The sound of knocking on the door echoed in the corridor, sounding particularly harsh.
Inside the ward, Su Jinyu seemed to have heard nothing of what was happening outside. Her eyes were fixed on the man standing beside the bed.
놙 saw Zhou Youchen bending down slightly, concentrating on tidying up the quilt.
His movements were skillful and efficient. He folded the quilt one by one, making each fold straight. After a while, the quilt was folded into a neat block, square and tidy, and it was obvious that it was completed according to the strict requirements of the army.
"You're quite tidy..." Su Jinyu couldn't help but exclaim, breaking the brief silence in the ward.
When Zhou Youchen heard the sound, he paused and then slowly turned around.
Seeing Su Jinyu suddenly appear in the ward, he was surprised and asked with a puzzled tone: "What are you doing here?"
Su Jinyu didn't hesitate at all and directly stated her purpose: "Who hit you? How long have you been a police officer and you've already made an enemy? Is he Shen Jingan's man?"
She stared at Zhou Youchen intently, as if trying to find the answer from his face.
Zhou Youchen lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze fell on the ground, paused for a moment, then raised his head and said truthfully: "There were 13 people who came that night. The palms of their hands were old hands who had been holding guns for many years. Their movements were uniform and standard. They should be military personnel... or retired people." His voice was low and calm, and every word was clear and powerful.
"That means he is Shen Jing'an's man?" Su Jinyu asked, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Not necessarily, there's no evidence." Zhou Youchen shook his head, his expression still solemn.
Su Jinyu's face darkened, and she thought that she might be the source of this misfortune, and her tone unconsciously carried a hint of guilt: "I have implicated you in this matter. Shen Jingan didn't dare to come to me, so he took it out on you... I will find him and have a good chat."
“No need.” Zhou Youchen’s expression was serious, and his features became more stern because of anger. “If it is really him, he abused his power and should be punished… The soldiers under his command are not his personal thugs, and the police station is not a vassal of the military. It is independent of the military and is a place to uphold justice for the people.”
Su Jinyu couldn't help laughing after hearing this, but there was a hint of bitterness in her smile: "You are quite simple."
She knew in her heart that during this period of military turmoil, anyone with a high position in the army could command a few soldiers to do private things. Everyone knew this, but no one was willing to reveal it.
Besides, how many people are there in the police department? How can they compare with the military?
What she couldn't understand even more was why Zhou Youchen gave up his father's invitation and entered the police station?
When Zhou Youchen heard this, the seriousness and determination in his eyes dimmed instantly. How could he not know what kind of time this was?
"I know that the military is strong and the police can swallow their anger... However, if the military is weak and its behavior is not standardized, it will be difficult to accomplish anything. Only when the military and the people are united can they become stronger day by day."
Su Jinyu looked at him deeply, "You want to change the army?"
Zhou Youchen shook his head. "It can't be changed. The military leaders gather power for profit. They are after power and wealth. There are very few who truly fight for the people."
"So, you chose the police station?"
"Yes, the police can still do something for the people...", instead of the wars among the Chinese people.
Zhou Youchen said, "We have already sent a message to Qianjiang Daily. Once Qianjiang Daily reports this incident, it will probably cause some troubles for Shen Jingan. He will not dare to take any action in the short term."
Su Jinyu raised an eyebrow, this idea coincided with her own.
"I forgot to tell you something important. The young marshal found a loophole in the account book and made a serious discovery in the military case. According to the contents of the account book..." Zhou Youchen was about to speak when he suddenly realized that there was a woman in the room.
Li Xiangyun also reacted at this time. She was slightly stunned, and then said, "Go away." Then she turned around and left.
"No need." Su Jinyu quickly pulled her back, "The case is not urgent right now... Aren't you here to see him?"
There was a hint of teasing and sincerity in her eyes, as if she was reminding Li Xiangyun of the original reason why she came here.
Li Xiangyun was like a startled deer, her eyes full of panic. She quickly reached out her hand and covered Su Jinyu's mouth. Her voice was very low, almost whispering: "Don't say it... I just came here to take a look."
Su Jinyu was confused by this sudden action. She frowned slightly, her eyes full of confusion, and stared straight at Li Xiangyun.
Are you scared when you see the real person?
I was very brave outside just now.
That inquiring look seemed to see through Li Xiangyun.
Zhou Youchen's calm gaze fell on Li Xiangyun. He tilted his head slightly and asked with a hint of inquiry in his eyes: "Who are you?"
The voice was low and gentle, and was particularly clear in the quiet ward.
