Chapter 55
Gu Qing took Yu Yao and drove out of the city.
After driving for about half an hour, the two arrived at the foot of a mountain. "This mountain, there is no better place than deep in the mountains and old forests. If he doesn't obey, just tie him up in the mountains and bleed him to feed the wolves."
Yu Yao pursed her lips and tried not to laugh. This guy heard what she had just said and thought that the people in the space could hear what they said. He was trying to scare people.
"So are we going to rush up the mountain now?" Yu Yao raised the last syllable of his voice.
Gu Qing nodded, "Of course, don't you love hiking? We haven't hiked together for a long time, so we can pick some herbs and hunt some game."
What he said sounded quite plausible. Yu Yao felt that it was not a bad idea. They had not had much rest in order to complete the mission. It would be nice to take a break during the mission.
The two of them set off as soon as they said they would, and went straight into the mountains.
It was already winter, and there were not many good things in the mountains, but the two of them did not come here for those things. Gu Qing held Yu Yao's hand, and the two of them went hard into the mountains as if they had come here specifically to climb the mountain.
It was finally not that cold when they reached the middle of the mountain, but Yu Yao was worried that if something unexpected happened while climbing in winter, it would be a waste of time. Seeing that time was almost up and they had to leave some time for the review, he said, "Let's leave it here. No one will come in the winter."
It was about to snow, and those who had stored firewood had already done so. As long as they didn't run into people going for winter hunting, no one would know they had been here.
After Yu Yao released the man, Gu Qing was still a little frightened by the sudden appearance of a man. However, when he thought that this man dared to attack Yu Yao, he became furious and kicked the man twice, directly waking up the unconscious man.
The cloth strips in the man's eyes and the stuff in his mouth were removed. He was still a little confused and didn't know what had happened. He felt like he had just taken a nap.
Wait, why is he here?
The two people in front of me!
"Who are you? Why did you tie me up? Let me go!"
"Let you go?" Yu Yao sneered, "When you attacked me last night, you should have known that you might be caught. Not everyone in this world is a fool like you."
"You... who are you?" He obviously remembered what happened last night, which surprised him very much. His reaction was so slow that he only remembered what happened last night now.
Yu Yao was also a little surprised by his reaction.
What both of them didn't know was that Yu Yao's space could stop time and space, which meant that anything that entered the space and came out would still remain in its original state. That was to say, if this person was knocked unconscious and thrown in, he would still be unconscious in the space. It would be a miracle if he could wake up after being unconscious for so long.
"Gu Qing then discovered the big hole in the other person's pants. He found that the hole was actually at the base of the thigh. His face turned black. He didn't know whether his wife had washed her eyes when she got home.
"Stop talking nonsense. Where is Zhu Ci?" Gu Qing spoke with a powerful blow as soon as he opened his mouth. The man obviously did not expect that he had been exposed. His pupils only shrank slightly, but he could not hide it from Yu Yao, who had just undergone special training, and Gu Qing, who was a veteran.
"I don't know what you are talking about. I am Zhu Ci. My grandfather is a scientist who worked for the country and the people. He is a hero. Do you know that you are treating his grandson like this?"
It would have been better if he hadn't said that. After he said that, Yu Yao thought that the real Zhu Ci might have been beheaded, and she became furious. She stepped forward and kicked the man, causing him to fall on the tree trunk and then hit the ground with a bang.
Now Zhu Ci could no longer hide the fear in her eyes. Such a little girl could actually kick him so far away with one kick!
"Don't talk nonsense. I warn you. If you don't tell me, you will end up being tied to the tree you just hurt, and then being bitten to death by wolves. Do you think we dare to arrest you without any evidence?"
"Do you think you can erase the birthmark by making a wound? You are so backward. You don't even know that there is such a thing as paternity test in this world. Other things can be faked, but can your blood be pretended to be Zhu Ci's?"
Not to mention the fake Zhu Ci, even Gu Qing was shocked by Yu Yao's words.
He knew that his wife was very powerful, but he didn't know that she was also so powerful when arguing with others.
"Tell me, where is Zhu Ci? If you tell me, I can give you a quick death."
As soon as he said this, the man saw Yu Yao taking out a knife from somewhere and walking towards him.
He suddenly had a vague premonition in his mind. What did this woman want to do?
He soon found out that this vicious woman had actually stabbed him in the leg. Blood gushed out and a bloody smell suddenly filled the air.
"I advise you to confess quickly. There are many bloodthirsty animals in this mountain."
Yu Yao raised his knife to stab him a second time, but the man quickly stopped him, saying, "I said, I said, on the mountain."
"You killed someone!" Yu Yao's tone was so cold that the man shuddered.
But he didn't dare not say anything, so he could only say: "Yes...he didn't listen, so...ah..."
In the end, he couldn't dodge Yu Yao's second knife.
After stabbing the man for the second time, Yu Yao actually felt a little regretful. Although violence is very useful sometimes, it seems to become a habit. Even if the man deserved to die, she should not do it, especially when the truth had been revealed after interrogation. She stabbed the man the second time because she was furious.
Yu Yao showed no reaction. She still looked sullen. "Now for the second question, who sent you here?"
"I can't tell you, even if you feed me to the wolves. If I tell you, my family will die."
Yu Yao turned around and looked at Gu Qing. They both understood what the other meant. They had not intended to ask everything on this trip. They just wanted to find an opportunity to bring the person back. Yu Yao was already satisfied to find out the whereabouts of Zhu Ci. As for how to interrogate this person and how to find out the power behind him, that was the business of those people.
"I will spare your life, but go find Zhu Ci, otherwise you will die a more miserable death than him."
The two were also worried that his blood would really attract wolves, so Yu Yao took out a piece of cloth from his bag and simply treated his wound, then he and Gu Qing took him back to their residence.
Everyone felt a little strange looking at the person who was suddenly brought back.
Naturally, Gu Qing would not explain anything to anyone. He directly sent someone to take the fake Zhu Ci back to Xiaoye Village, while Gu Qing and his companion returned to the house.
"I'm sorry, was I too impulsive just now?" Yu Yao looked at his hands, feeling a little frustrated.
She had heard too many stories in the past two days and had been feeling angry, but that was no reason for her to act rashly.
This time, Gu Qing did not coax her, but said seriously: "It is true that I was a little impulsive. You can have a better way to handle this matter. Sometimes the bad guys must be punished, but the means must be legal and in compliance with regulations. Of course, we can make special arrangements when necessary, such as when we need to protect ourselves. But I know you are just trying to scare him, so you don't have to blame yourself."
Gu Qing did not stop Yu Yao when he saw her taking action just now. In fact, such a method could be used here, but he could see that Yu Yao herself did not want to use this method. If she continued to do this in the long run, it would not be good for her mental health.
"You can apply for psychological counseling when you go back. Sometimes things may not seem serious, but you can't let them accumulate, understand?" Gu Qing hugged her.
"Okay." Yu Yao had heard that those who went to the battlefield might need some psychological counseling to get rid of the hostility in their bodies, otherwise it might have a negative impact on their daily work and life.
"It's okay." Gu Qing advised, "I didn't stop you just now, which means that there is no big problem with your approach. Next time if you encounter a crisis, don't be soft-hearted. The most important thing for us is to protect the mission targets and ourselves, and not to harm innocent people. Other things can come later."
Because the object of their protection mission may be the progress of a certain area of the country over the past few decades.
Yu Yao didn't blame herself too much, she just felt that she was a little too angry and she could have a better way.
"I understand. I will make better use of my abilities to do things."
Before coming here, she didn't think what she did was anything great. After completing this mission, she found that she could do a lot, not only protecting Mr. Zhu, helping Zhu Ci, and helping the common people, but also realizing her own value.
Gu Qing and his group have always been doing good things for the country and the people, so why can't she do the same?
She knew that the stability of future generations was the result of the previous generations who carried on with heavy burdens. She had the ability, so why couldn't she be the one who carried on with heavy burdens?
"I believe you, wife."
Yu Yao was full of fighting spirit at this moment and decided to train hard and complete the task conscientiously.
The good psychological preparation was instantly broken after hearing Gu Qing's sticky call of "daughter-in-law". Yu Yao wanted to call him "husband" to make him happy, but firstly, she couldn't say it out loud, and secondly, it seemed that such a call was not popular these days. She suddenly had an idea and shouted, "Brother Qing, thank you."
As soon as the words fell, I felt the other person's body stiffen, and the next moment I was kissed.
Yu Yao was enjoying the sweetness of the moment, not realizing that she had opened the door to a new world for Gu Qing.
Zhu Ci's body was soon found, but it was unrecognizable. However, he had been injured, and according to his files, matching marks were soon found on the body. Combined with the clothes and personal belongings that had not yet decayed at the scene, the identity of the person was directly confirmed.
Yu Yao and Gu Qing discussed it and decided to tell Mr. Zhu the truth of the matter.
Mr. Zhu was unexpectedly calm, until he saw Zhu Ci's corpse, then tears welled up in his cloudy eyes.
"Finally found it, I finally found my Ah Ci..."
Hearing this, Yu Yao couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. She really couldn't imagine how the old man could pretend to be so affectionate with the enemy when he knew that his grandson had been killed.
There was a death in Xiaoye Village, so of course it needs to be investigated.
When you pull out radishes, you bring out mud. Those who have done evil in the village in recent years will not have a good end and will be cleared out one by one.
While the matter was being investigated, Yu Yao and Gu Qing had already escorted Mr. Gu, Shao Liyang, and Zhu Ci's body onto a car bound for Shanghai. Cai Qi and two other young warriors were also travelling with them.
Since learning of Zhu Ci's death, the old man has spoken much less. Although he is trying hard, he has inevitably aged.
Yu Yao never mentioned Xia Sheng again. Occasionally, she would chat with the old man about some plants she knew about. She found that only when she talked about these things did the old man seem to have energy.
"The shyness of crape myrtle and mimosa is completely different. If you observe carefully, you will find that the branches of crape myrtle are very thin, but its branches and leaves are lush, and the flowers are full of flowers when they bloom. Therefore, the branches and leaves will tremble when you touch them lightly, just like being shy. Mimosa is a plant that grows in tropical areas. We should not have seen it in these places. You are not from here, right?"
Yu Yao shook his head and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that I could use this to judge where people live." As they chatted, Yu Yao also found these plants quite interesting.
"Of course, many plants will not adapt to certain places, and some plants are extremely invasive. If they are moved to a place without natural enemies, they are likely to spread and cause disasters. Tropical regions originally have heavy rainfall, and in order to protect themselves, mimosa will close when touched by rain to achieve the effect of protecting itself."
"So that's how it is. Are there any other interesting plants?"
The old man laughed twice, "That's a lot. If you want to listen, I can tell you three days and three nights without repeating myself."
Yu Yao: "Forget it. If I tire you out, I will be a sinner."
"What's so tiring about this? I'm happy that someone likes my knowledge. If you really like it, I'll find some books when I get back to Shanghai... I'll show you some of my old notes. Just flipping through them will give you a basic understanding of some common plants."
After saying that, he took a sip of tea and smiled, "I see that you, a little girl, still like the appearance of plants, rather than their internal growth. From this aspect, there is a lot of room for development in the future. As long as the city is developing, the pursuit of beauty will not stop. It is always good to see and learn more, but don't tell these words to others."
If word of the pursuit of beauty gets out, it will surely be seen as a capitalist approach.
Yu Yao nodded in agreement, but she felt a little regretful in her heart. These scholars obviously had such foresight, but they didn't even dare to speak out their ideas.
Isn't the fact just as the old man said? In the future, urban greening will be a very important part of urban development. The value of some garden plants may even be higher than the price of a house.
"Master, you really see through me. My dream is to buy a courtyard house in Beijing and create the scenery I like in it."
Zhu Guoming blinked and said, "From what you said, I can tell you have understood this."
Gu Qing also felt that Yu Yao said too much. He knew that these must be Yu Yao's understanding in the future, but she, a country girl, should not know so much. Even if she married into the army, it was still intriguing that she knew so much overnight.
"Ah Yao loves reading. I think she read all this in books."
Of course Yu Yao knew what Gu Qing meant. The reason why she acted like that was because the old man was obviously getting close to her. He didn't speak too politely, so Yu Yao became more casual.
"Yes, but I only saw some of them in the recycling station before. I haven't read these books much since then."
After hearing this, the old man sighed and said, "What you are talking about is the landscape of the courtyard. It is difficult to see actual examples nowadays. But if you like, I can explain it to you."
Yu Yao nodded, "Thank you very much, old man."
In the past few years, many old gardens have been destroyed, and the yards of those wealthy families have been divided up and given to many different people to live in. I am afraid that only one in ten of the various decorations in the yards remain, and many trees have been cut down and used as firewood.
All these will slowly recover later.
"If Miss Yu likes reading, you might want to go to Hong Kong if you have the chance. There are many bookstores opened by mainlanders there, and you can see many books that are not available in the mainland. If Miss Yu goes there, I can introduce you to my friends."
Shao Liyang spoke very little along the way. When he opened his mouth, Yu Yao was stunned. His Mandarin with a slight Hong Kong accent made Yu Yao feel as if she was in those Hong Kong movies.
"Thank you, Comrade Shao. I will contact you if I need to go there in the future." Yu Yao responded politely.
Not to mention, at this age she really wants to visit Hong Kong, but she is afraid that she doesn't have the chance now, and she doesn't know if she will have that opportunity after the 1980s.
Mr. Zhu was old, educated and experienced, while Shao Liyang had traveled a lot and was well-informed, especially when it came to jade and antiques. He could tell many interesting stories, and they had a pleasant chat along the way. Gu Qing was probably worried that Yu Yao might let something slip, so he kept staring at her and interjected from time to time.
But in fact, Yu Yao knew it in her heart, but she would not blame Gu Qing for his good intentions.
In the past few days, not only Yu Yao, but also Gu Qing learned a lot.
After arriving in Shanghai, several people sent the two to the designated location one after another, and then informed Xichuan. The mission was completed, and Brigade Cao specially granted them a week's leave so that they could wander around Shanghai.
If transportation were more convenient in the future, the two could still go back home to visit, but now it is inconvenient to go anywhere. If they want to go to Beijing by train, it will take a day and a night, which is really inconvenient.
However, Yu Yao still suggested going to Beijing to visit Gu Qing's parents.
"We can go back directly from Beijing then. We are married now, and it is not good to always miss visiting our parents. Do you think it is convenient?"
Gu Qing was very surprised. He had actually wanted to take Yu Yao home for a long time, but he was worried that Yu Yao would be tired. Now that Yu Yao took the initiative to bring it up, he immediately agreed.
"But didn't Mr. Zhu tell you to go find him before you leave? I guess he has something to give you." Gu Qing said.
Yu Yao thought about it and was indeed tempted by Mr. Zhu's things, but she didn't get to know Mr. Zhu for his things. If she missed it, she would just feel a little regretful. She couldn't not visit Gu's parents for the sake of benefits.
"It's okay. We'll go look for Su Ye tomorrow, visit Mr. Zhu the day after tomorrow, and take the evening bus to Beijing." That way they can stay in Beijing for three full days, which is just the right amount of time.
Gu Qing agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to my wife."
Although we chatted on the way and we were sitting in a soft sleeper, the conditions were pretty good, but after sitting in the car for several days, we were both very tired. We went to the state-owned hotel to eat something and then returned to the guesthouse and slept until the next morning.
Maybe because she slept for too long, Yu Yao was still groggy when Gu Qing woke her up.
"What time is it?" She opened her eyes, looked at the figure in front of her, and then closed them silently.
Gu Qing found this funny, picked him up and held him in his arms, saying, "It's almost eight o'clock, don't we still have to go look for Su Ye?"
Su Ye now works in a department store in Shanghai. She had contacted him before and had agreed that Yu Yao could just go find her directly.
Get up at eight o'clock, wait for them to pack up and have breakfast before going over.
Yu Yao reluctantly opened her eyes and saw Gu Qing's face approaching her. She covered his face mercilessly and pushed him away.
"You haven't even washed up yet, go away." After saying that, he quickly went to brush his teeth and wash his face, which made Gu Qing laugh.
The two of them originally wanted to ask Cai Qi to go out with the other two, but Cai Qi refused first. The remaining two thought that Yu Yao and her partner were going to have sex, so they also thought they were very tactful and rejected Yu Yao's invitation.
Yu Yao thought of Su Ye and did not force it, so she followed Gu Qing to the department store.
Su Ye works at a cosmetics counter. Although she has a tomboyish personality, she has a bright and elegant appearance and good skin. She can be a living signboard just standing there.
Yu Yao originally thought that with Su Ye's personality, she would be able to do well in a place like that. After all, everyone likes lively and cheerful people. However, when they arrived, they found that Su Ye's eyes were red, as if she had suffered some injustice.
"Su Ye." She was so serious with her head down that she didn't even notice Yu Yao and the other man approaching. Yu Yao had no choice but to call her.
When she heard Yu Yao's voice, she raised her head quickly, "Yu Yao, you're here!"
Su Ye was very surprised, but her smile was still a bit forced.
Yu Yao frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"No problem." Su Ye shook his head and said, "This must be Comrade Gu Qing, hello."
Gu Qing nodded slightly, "Hello, Comrade Su Ye, thank you for saving Ah Yao on the train earlier."
"That was a long time ago. You two still remember it. Let's put it aside." Su Ye smiled and then apologized, "I may not be able to take a leave for the time being. Can you go around first? I'll treat you to a meal at the state-owned hotel later."
Yu Yao and Gu Qing looked at each other and said, "Okay, don't worry, we have nothing to do anyway..."
Before she finished her words, a slightly harsh male voice came from the side, "Su Ye, it seems that you didn't listen to a word I said, right? It's working hours now, and you just want to be lazy. Then don't eat lunch today, go clean the toilet in the building."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt two cold gazes falling on him. He shuddered immediately, but when he looked up, he saw that although Gu Qing and the other man looked good, they were dressed rather poorly. He felt that he was superior to them, so he sneered and said, "What are you looking at? If you can't afford it, get out!"
"Manager Yao, what are you talking about? Didn't you say that we should respect our customers? Is this your respect?"
Su Ye changed his previous timid attitude and loudly scolded the other party.
The man called Manager Yao was used to showing off his power in this department store. He immediately got angry when he heard Su Ye's words. He angrily said, "When is it your turn to criticize me for doing things? Why don't you go and clean the toilet for me? Do you want to take care of all the toilets this month?"
"I'm a salesperson in a department store, not a cleaner. Why do you ask me to clean the toilets? You're abusing your power and being so arrogant. Do you think no one can stop you?"
Su Ye has suffered a lot of losses in front of this guy these days. He didn't want to cause trouble for his family so he had to swallow his anger. Who knew that he not only reprimanded himself in front of Yu Yao and the other two, but also dared to scold Yu Yao, saying that he was just a piece of trash and didn't think he was a big shot.
"You...you!" Manager Yao pointed at Su Ye and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.
The onlookers didn't dare to say anything. The salespeople all knew that there was someone behind Manager Yao, otherwise how could he dare to be so arrogant?
Now that Su Ye actually dared to offend him, no one could bear to watch, let alone step forward to help.
Those who didn't know them didn't see the fight and were just watching the fun.
"What do you mean by 'I'? If you are sick, go get treatment and stop yelling at me!"
"You don't want to do this anymore, right, Su Ye!" Manager Yao looked like he had finally got the upper hand over Su Ye, but his lips were still trembling, showing how angry he was.
He just didn't believe that there was no one who didn't want a job in a department store. This bitch, don't even think about giving her a chance unless she kneels down and begs him.
"I don't want to do this crappy job anymore. With a scumbag like you around, this department store will be ruined sooner or later!" He threw his work ID away and was about to leave.
"I think you are looking for a fight!" Manager Yao was about to slap Su Yeyang, but his behavior really made everyone realize what it meant to look for a fight.
Before his hand touched Su Ye, Su Ye grabbed his wrist. Then everyone saw the fierce little girl throw Manager Yao to the ground over her shoulder.
The fall was quite severe and Manager Yao started to cry out in pain.
Everyone present stared at the scene happening before them with their mouths wide open in disbelief. Could this be real?
How could Su Ye, who is so powerful, be made to cry by this Manager Yao?
Everyone took a few steps back.
Yu Yao and Gu Qing were the only ones with normal expressions in the room.
Gu Qing thought to himself, he is indeed his wife's good friend, he handles things just as domineeringly as his wife.
"Let's go. We don't have to wait any longer. Let's play however we want."
Su Ye pulled Yu Yao and didn't even glance at the man on the ground.
But the man had no intention of letting her go. This bitch had made him lose face so much, how could he let her go so easily?
"Someone come, someone is beating people here, why don't you call the police!" Manager Yao was helped up and glared at Su Ye fiercely. He didn't believe that if he, a member of the Xie family, went to call the police, this little bitch wouldn't get his skin peeled off!
This Yao Renyi is the man of a niece of some unknown generation from the Xie family. He often relies on the Xie family's power to cheat and fool people outside. However, such things have never been reported to the higher-ups, and because his wife is indeed a member of the Xie family, no one really cares about him.
As time went by, he really thought he was someone important.
Su Ye rolled her eyes, turned her head and looked at him coldly, saying, "You'd better not regret it." After saying that, she looked at Yu Yao with some apology.
Yu Yao patted her hand soothingly, "It's okay, we are all here with you, don't worry."
Having said that, looking at Su Ye's expression, this man will never get any good results in front of her.
It's this guy's fault. He is used to being arrogant and domineering by relying on the power of the Xie family. He didn't even check the files when he flirted with the girl. Even if she had asked about Su Ye's background, she wouldn't have dared to do anything to Su Ye.
Although he was using the name of Xie family, he was just a distant relative of the Xie family. Now he was working for Xie family's aunt, and the real people of Xie family might not even be able to call out his name when they saw him.
Not long after, Yu Yao followed him to the police station, while Gu Qing went out for a while. He must seize this good opportunity to repay his gratitude.
Since he was already here, he naturally had to give a statement. When Yu Yao was asked about his basic information, he immediately showed his work ID. Of course, it was a temporary work ID issued by his superiors. When the other party saw the stamp on it, their attitude softened.
Then Yu Yao told Manager Yao everything he had just heard about his rude remarks.
Finally, he concluded: "Before, I was busy with tasks and rarely went to the department store. I didn't know that such a person could be a leader. I think Comrade Su Ye is right. With people like him around, the department store will be finished sooner or later."
When she said this, the other party knew what her attitude was. Although they could not teach Comrade Xie a lesson for what happened today, they would not make things difficult for Comrade Su Ye.
Su Ye had originally planned to complain to her family. Apart from her martial arts skills, she really had no ability to protect herself. But she didn't expect that the people from the police station would be so polite to her after hearing that the person was from the Xie family. She immediately felt aggrieved. There are still many good people in this world.
So she told him all the grievances she had suffered while working in the department store these days.
Su Ye got the job in the department store through her own efforts. This job is very popular nowadays, and the fact that she was able to get the job through her own ability shows how good she is.
Of course, she knew that her appearance was also a factor. The department stores only recruited sales clerks who were all good-looking girls. It would be a lie for Su Ye to say that she was not proud of this. After all, except for her, all the people in her group who got in were relatives of the family.
But it didn't matter much. A family like their Su family would never have girls working in such a place. At most they would go to better places like hospitals, schools, and post offices. Even if they came to a department store, they would work in an office. In addition, the Su family used to be relatively low-key, and the channels for disseminating various information are relatively poor these days, so no one recognized that she was the eldest daughter of the Su family.
So everyone thought that she, a person with no background, only got into the department store because of her face. The other sales clerks looked down on her, but Manager Yao did think highly of her, but right from the start he transferred Su Ye to a good counter, gave Su Ye prizes, and also created a lot of hatred for Su Ye.
Of course, Su Ye could not possibly be interested in Manager Yao. Apart from other things, he was almost 40 years old, with a body full of flesh and looked older than her father. Not to mention that he was obviously married, how could she agree to have anything with him? She naturally rejected his generous gift.
Manager Yao was probably used to finding it interesting to be rejected at first, so he started to find fault with Su Ye's work, sometimes deducting her salary, sometimes punishing her by making her clean the sanitation, but sometimes he was very nice to her, for example, giving her a good counter.
Su Ye had finally convinced her family to let her go out to work this time, and she didn't want to give up just like that, so she kept being tolerant. The other party didn't touch her bottom line, she just felt disgusted and wronged.
It wasn't until today that she could no longer bear it and completely exploded.
Now that things have come to a head, she can naturally say whatever she wants.
Not only did she tell him about the oppression that Manager Yao usually put on her, but she also clearly stated that he had harassed her and wanted her to be his mistress.
After she finished speaking, even the staff who took the statement felt that she was a bit aggressive. Nowadays, many girls who encounter such things would like to keep the matter secret for fear of affecting their reputation.
But what does reputation mean to Su Ye? The right thing to do is not to let yourself suffer losses.
"Comrade Su Ye, we already know what you said. The beating today was legitimate self-defense. As for your claim that Manager Yao harassed you, we don't have any evidence at the moment, but we will do our best to investigate."
Su Ye nodded. She would definitely deliver the evidence and would never let that toad get away with it. But at this time she said nothing, only: "Thank you, police comrade."
“It’s what we should do.”
After finishing the transcript, the two of them went out together and ran into Manager Yao.
Su Ye rolled her eyes again and was about to leave with Yu Yao, but Manager Yao stopped her again and asked, "Why aren't you locked up?"
"Are you sick? If you hold me back again, I will have to defend myself!"
Su Ye was about to take action, and Manager Yao retreated back in fear. "You! If you have the guts, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will make you kneel before me..."
"Police comrade, help me, someone is threatening me here!"
When Su Ye started yelling, Manager Na Yao was so scared that he cursed, "Just wait for me," and walked away in shame.
However, by this time a policeman had come out to inquire about the situation. Su Ye had no intention of letting the other party go, so he immediately complained and recounted the threat just now in vivid detail.
"Comrade Su Ye, don't worry. We will investigate thoroughly. If he really committed a crime, he will not be able to escape."
Su Ye was moved and said, "Thank you, police comrade. We will leave now."
After the two of them walked out for more than ten steps, Su Ye said to Yu Yao: "Yu Yao, did I look cool when I beat someone up just now?"
Yu Yao was startled, raised his thumb and said, "Handsome!"
"I've been wanting to do it for a long time, but I've never had the chance. It just so happened that so many people were watching, and I couldn't help but piss her off to death."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Qing came over and said, "Good news, Yao Renyi has a lover on Huaihai Road, and that woman gave birth to a son for him."
"Heh." Su Ye laughed and said, "I knew this person was not clean. Pah, what a piece of shit!"
After she finished speaking, she realized that Gu Qing had just gone to help her investigate someone, and he had found evidence against that person so quickly. Didn't she hear before that they didn't have any acquaintances in Shanghai?
It seems that this person is really capable.
Su Ye rolled his eyes and said, "I am really sorry to bother you today. Please come to my house for dinner tonight and let me treat you well. The matter of the beast is not urgent. It is rare for us to meet each other, so don't let him ruin our mood."
Yu Yao had some entanglements. They were on good terms with Su Ye because they had some experience together, and there was no interest involved.
Now it seems that Su Ye wants to introduce them to the Su family. Yu Yao has also learned a little about the Su family recently. It is inevitable that he would feel that he is marrying above his station if he goes there now. In addition, Su Lin is still Gu Qing's leader, so it seems a little inappropriate.
So Yu Yao looked at Gu Qing. Gu Qing received Yu Yao's gaze and instantly understood what she meant. He also felt that there was no need to approach her for the time being. Given their current relationship, it would not be appropriate to visit her without warning, and it would also cause trouble for the other party's family.
"No, we came here in a hurry and have to go back to Beijing tomorrow. Let's pay you a formal visit next time when we have time."
Hearing him say this, Su Ye suddenly felt regretful.
"What? We're leaving tomorrow. It's too hasty. If I had known, I would have dealt with that beast later. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Su Ye was not the kind of person who would force others to do things. She knew that they had their reasons for not wanting to visit her home, so she stopped talking about it and said, "Then let's go to the state-owned hotel and have a good meal. This time, you must let me pay for it."
It was hard to refuse such a kind offer, and since neither party cared about such trivial matters, Yu Yao and Gu Qing agreed immediately.
Su Ye was still as talkative as before, chattering a lot, but she was straightforward and not annoying. Yu Yao was also very happy to talk to her, and seeing Yu Yao happy, Gu Qing also kept a smile on his face.
After they sat down in the state-owned hotel, while Gu Qing was serving the dishes, Yu Yao pretended to mention Cai Qi casually.
"By the way, we came here with Cai Qi this time, but he had something else to do so he didn't come with me. Are you still in touch with him?"
When the two of them were communicating before, Su Ye mentioned that she had written to Cai Qi, but there was no follow-up. Yu Yao wanted to see how they were doing, and maybe she should let Su Ye know about Cai Qi's past, but if she no longer cared, there was no need for Yu Yao to say more about those things.
"No more." Su Ye was visibly disappointed. It was obvious that she was really sad. Seeing Gu Qing coming over, she whispered, "He said that he already has a girl he likes, who is in the army. In that case, I will definitely bless him."
After saying that, she snorted coldly, "This girl is so nice, he has no taste if he doesn't like me, humph."
Yu Yao pursed her lips, and it was obvious that she was pretending to be open-minded. Sometimes love comes from nowhere and is so deep that it always takes some time to let go.
This was obviously not a good topic for Su Ye, so Yu Yao said no more and instead asked about Yao Renyi.
It was also at this time that Yu Yao realized how much injustice Su Ye had suffered in his last shift.
But from what Yao Renyi said today, it was clear that this was not the first or second time that he gave orders in an unconventional manner, which surprised Yu Yao very much.
She thought Su Ye and herself were the same type of people, the kind that would never let themselves be wronged. But why did it feel like this girl was only pretending to be fierce on the surface?
"He was like that, and you could resist putting a sack on him?"
Su Ye was still a little angry when she talked about it, "Do you think I don't want to? It's just that I'm too tired from work during the day. How can I have the energy to take care of him after work?" Otherwise, how could she not know about the ugly thing?
Originally, the salesperson's words looked glamorous on the surface, but they were not easy to begin with. In addition, Yao Renyi was always making trouble for no reason, so naturally, Su Ye was tortured enough.
"I also don't want to worry my family, I want to rely on myself." Su Ye said unhappily, "Now I think about it, forget it. I have family members who love me, why should I make myself suffer?"
She only figured this out after seeing the interaction between Gu Qing and Yu Yao.
Gu Qing cares about Yu Yao very much, and Yu Yao will directly ask Gu Qing to do something when he needs him to do it. Su Ye did not think it was wrong to see this, because she knew that Yu Yao also cared about Gu Qing. If Gu Qing needed Yu Yao to do something, Yu Yao would definitely do it without saying a word.
Isn't this what family members care about each other?
Isn't it enough for me to trouble my family now, then work harder and find ways to repay them?
Why does she have to fight for that position in front of her family, and let others take advantage of her for nothing!
Yu Yao nodded, "It's great that you can figure it out. We are all family, why should we distinguish between you and me?"
Su Ye hummed, and looking at the big pork elbow, her eyes lit up. Suddenly, she said, "By the way, do you remember the man we rescued in the alley before? Do you know who he was?"
Yu Yao paused when he saw the person who was rescued in the alley. Wasn’t that Brother Huang?
"Who is it?" she asked.
