Men and women eating in the courtyard

"You suggest me?"

Kuang Yusheng squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Jingzhang. After asking a question, he continued: "Is it your intention, or is there someone else's request?"

As a production cadre in a steel rolling mill for many years, Kuang Yusheng naturally has his own persistence and ability.

The director of a service department actually gave him some advice.

Especially the suggestion that it dictated who he dated, had to make Kuang Yusheng feel disgusted.

"Haha, you see you misunderstood, don't you?"

Wang Jingzhang smiled and said: "I just say something with deep feeling. If you want to listen, just listen. If you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Kuang Yusheng's eyelids drooped and he did not continue the topic.

Wang Jingzhang's current service reform is booming, so it naturally attracts the attention of leaders. Kuang Yusheng is not envious, but he is not jealous either.

As long as he continues to work as the director of the Production Management Department, a deputy director will be appropriate.

This has been an unspoken rule in the steel rolling mill for many years. After all, this is a factory and it still needs a professional deputy director.

If the largest office in the steel rolling mill cannot be upgraded, there will really be a problem.

Kuang Yusheng has his own persistence and does not want to offend Li Xuewu, let alone Wang Jingzhang because of Li Xuewu.

This was a completely unnecessary decision, even though Li Xuewu kept pushing himself.

It was obvious that Li Xuewu had taken the initiative to contact Kuang Yusheng and Xia Zhongquan several times, but to put it bluntly, they were all cadres of the steel rolling mill, and the above arguments were only fictitious.

If you see clearly what you can get and what you want, you will naturally not be afraid of being framed by others.

Li Xuewu didn't do this for nothing. At least he met Nie Chenglin's car when he got off work. Deputy Factory Director Nie turned his head and ignored him very dissatisfied.

Li Xuewu naturally noticed Nie Chenglin's actions while sitting in the car. He smiled at Sha Qizhi who looked over and didn't pay much attention.

Nie Chenglin is what Kuang Yusheng will look like in the future. The two people have the same temper and the same thinking mode.

The nature of the position naturally puts him on the factory director's side, and Li Xuewu certainly knows this.

But there is a saying that goes well, as long as the hoe dances well, there is no wall that cannot be dug down.

Even if he couldn't dig it down, Li Xuewu still had to dig it up a few times.

"Has the business trip report been submitted?"

"yes"

Hearing Li Xuewu's question, Sha Qizhi nodded and said, "As per your request, I will hand it over to the factory office before get off work."

"Um"

Li Xuewu nodded, looked out the window and said, "This time I mainly go there as a branch, so you and Jiankun don't have to go."

"Director"

Sha Qizhi turned his head and glanced at Han Jiankun, then suggested to Li Xuewu: "It's okay if I don't go, but let Jiankun go with you so that you can take care of him."

Li Xuewu turned back to look at Sha Qizhi, waiting for him to continue.

Sha Qizhi also fully exercised his responsibilities as a secretary and said very clearly: "There are times when you are not suitable to be in a front-line position."

"Um"

Li Xuewu looked out the window again, and then said: "Then Jiankun will go back to clean up tonight, and follow me to Steel City tomorrow."

"yes"

——

Li Xuewu did not eat at home in the evening, but went to the shipping warehouse.

It wasn't that he was getting bolder now that he was married, or that his mother had given him permission, but that he had to undergo monthly psychotherapy before leaving.

In the days since Zhou Yamei came to Beijing, Li Xuewu has not stopped receiving treatment, which can not only relax his mind but also relieve his fatigue.

It's been half a month since Fu Haibo's case ended, and he was going to Steel City for a week. Li Xuewu chose the right time.

Maybe it was because of getting the certificate that Gu Ning's attitude towards him changed a lot.

It can be seen from the atmosphere of getting along and the attitude of speaking that Gu Ning is also working hard to accept the environment with Li Xuewu.

"How long are you going for?"

“Not sure”

Li Xuewu shook his head. After the meal, he and Gu Ning were pushed out of the kitchen by Zhou Yamei, and they drank tea on the coffee table.

Fu Zhidong was sitting next to Li Xuewu, holding in his hand a picture book of "Grimm's Fairy Tales" from the 1959 edition of Magic City Children's Publishing House, and reading with interest.

“But it shouldn’t take more than a week”

Li Xuewu put down the tea cup in his hand and leaned on the back of the sofa in the same posture as Fu Zhidong.

Fu Zhidong turned to look at his godfather, smiled, and asked, "Uncle, are you going on a business trip?"

"Um"

Li Xuewu responded with a smile and asked, "What's going on? Come with me?"

"I won't go, I still have to go to school."

During his time in the capital, Fu Zhidong gradually became more lively than a child of his age. Maybe it was because of going to school, but he was not as withdrawn as Li Xuewu seemed when he first met him.

"Haha, you can't bear to leave the female classmates in the class?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and teased his godson, but Fu Zhidong nodded seriously and said: "Yanni said that her parents would take her to the zoo on Sunday, and my mother would take me too."

"Really"

Seeing that his godson didn't understand what he meant at all, and Gu Ning, who understood what he meant, was staring at him, Li Xuewu could only smile and follow the child's words.

Fu Zhidong looked very excited, and kept talking to Li Xuewu about the animal world described by Yanni.

Especially Li Xuewu's constant responses made him feel that Li Xuewu was very interested. He rummaged through the illustrations in the fairy tale book to show Li Xuewu which animal he was talking about.

Gu Ning didn't like to talk, and Li Xuewu was just sitting here bored, so he might as well be teasing the children.

"uncle"

Just after Li Xuewu responded, Fu Zhidong asked with wide eyes: "Uncle, do you like animals?"

"Um……"

Li Xuewu hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said: "How should I put it, I really like it."

"Wow!"

Fu Zhidong clapped his little hands, feeling very excited about having the same hobby as his uncle, just like adults, children, nature and many other elements in fairy tale books that make up the fairy tale world.

But after talking for a long time, he didn't see his uncle say anything, so he asked: "Uncle, do you also like to go to the zoo?"

The child's idea is very simple, that is, since you like it too, uncle, can you take me there in the future?

Li Xuewu naturally understood what Fu Zhidong meant, but he would not continue to follow his godson's words.

It’s my first time to be a godfather, why should I follow you~

"Uncle likes animals very simply."

Li Xuewu looked at his godson's innocent eyes, with a gentle smile on his face, but he said meaningfully: "Uncle doesn't like small animals in the zoo. Uncle likes them cooked and placed on the table."

"..."

Fu Zhidong looked at his uncle with wide eyes, then looked down at the picture album in his hand, feeling as if his inner world was broken.

Sure enough, fairy tales are all lies.

"Go, you are fooling my son again"

At this moment Zhou Yamei came out of the restaurant, wiped her hands, pursed her lips and said something to Li Xuewu.

Apparently Zhou Yamei also heard the conversation between Li Xuewu and Fu Zhidong just now. Now he walked up to his son whose worldview was about to be shattered into pieces and touched his little face.

"Uncle is teasing you, uncle is the worst"

"Mother"

Fu Zhidong raised his head and looked at his mother, staring with big innocent eyes and asked: "Are the animals in the zoo delicious?"

"..."

This time it was Zhou Yamei's turn to be speechless. Looking at Li Xuewu who was smiling evilly, her teeth itched with anger.

At this moment, Gu Ning couldn't help but pursed her lips and snickered, but she still came over and took the picture album from Fu Zhidong's hand, coaxing: "Let's go, go upstairs with my aunt to read."

The biggest advantage of Fu Zhidong is that he is obedient. Although he is also naughty as a little boy, he always obeys as long as adults tell him.

Now that my aunt was holding my little hand, I had no choice but to look at my mother in confusion and follow my aunt upstairs.

Gu Ning knew what Li Xuewu was here for, so he took the initiative to take over the job of coaxing the children to free up time for Zhou Yamei.

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu and rolled his eyes and said, "Just act bad, because the child still misses you."

Li Xuewu smiled while lying on the sofa: "I didn't say anything."

Zhou Yamei ignored Li Xuewu's quibbles and couldn't help but pinch Li Xuewu while putting a blanket on him.

Seeing Li Xuewu grinning, he didn't feel like laughing anymore, so he hit Li Xuewu lightly with the folder in his hand.

"Is that intentional?"

"Haha, it really hurts"

Li Xuewu's acting skills are too exaggerated, but his verbal skills are amazing.

But Zhou Yamei didn't believe it, because Li Xuewu was the best at talking nonsense seriously, and she had been fooled many times.

“Let’s start by talking about your recent work and life.”

Li Xuewu turned his head, glanced at Zhou Yamei, and asked, "Don't you know everything about my work and life?"

Zhou Yamei sat far back, and Li Xuewu couldn't see Zhou Yamei when he was lying down normally.

At this time, all the lights in the room were turned off, and only two wall lamps were still on. The light available for illumination was limited, but it also enhanced the atmosphere of the living room at this time.

"Pa~"

Zhou Yamei hit Li Xuewu with the folder again, rolled her eyes and said, "I want you to tell me whether it has anything to do with me."

Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Yamei suspiciously, and when he saw her insistently staring, he turned around.

"Well... let's start with the two girls we met by chance."

Zhou Yamei: "..."

She knew that Li Xuewu was favored by women in the capital, and she could tell from Li Xuewu's character traits.

Then there are the ex-girlfriends that Li Xuewu "confessed" to her before. Unexpectedly, Li Xuewu just had a new situation after a spring outing.

…

Li Xuewu's narrative is very long and fragmented. He talks about whatever comes to mind, with a hammer here and a stick here and there.

This kind of hypnotic conversation itself slows down thinking and relaxes nerves, so Zhou Yamei guided and recorded it in a notebook.

Li Xuewu fell asleep when he was talking about going back to Steel City. He snored so loudly that even Gu Ning could hear it on the second floor.

But I could hear Li Xuewu's snoring on the first floor because the bedroom door was open.

As for why the door was open, Gu Ning didn't think about it carefully, nor did he notice the change in himself. He only knew that he didn't want to close the door at that time.

Now I heard Li Xuewu's snoring, and accidentally walked to the stairs to take a look.

In the dim living room, a figure was lying on the sofa, snoring. Gu Ning knew that it was Li Xuewu.

The person sitting next to the sofa must be Zhou Yamei.

At this moment, Zhou Yamei was looking at the sleeping Li Xuewu, like a conscientious doctor.

Gu Ning looked at it for a while and then turned back to the bedroom. Fu Zhidong's attention was still on the book, and his aunt only took a look when she entered the room.

"Is uncle snoring?"

The little child already understood a lot. He listened to the voice and asked a question without taking his eyes off the book.

"Um"

Gu Ning sat by the bed, looked at Fu Zhidong and asked, "Is it noisy?"

Although he asked this question, Gu Ning did not ask whether he wanted to close the door.

Fu Zhidong shook his head and said, "I'm not going to sleep now anyway."

Gu Ning looked at the stubborn child and smiled. Fu Zhidong had to perform a grueling kung fu show every night just to sleep a little later.

Because he wanted to read a storybook for a while longer in the evening, and sometimes he was fascinated and had to hold on for a while longer.

Zhou Yamei was worried about her son's health, so she was naturally more strict with her son. Sometimes mother and son would be tangled for a while at night.

Fu Zhidong didn't need Gu Ning to coax him. He held the book and read it while Gu Ning read his own. The time they spent reading passed quickly.

I don't know when the snoring downstairs stopped, and voices could be heard intermittently again.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Two hours"

Zhou Yamei handed the warm tea to Li Xuewu and said, "Are you tired recently?"

"kind of"

Li Xuewu took a sip and lay back again.

Having just woken up, he really missed this feeling. After the dryness of his throat was relieved, he squinted his eyes again.

Zhou Yamei looked at the folder in his hand and said softly: "Did you go to Steel City for that case?"

"Yes, both"

Li Xuewu responded and explained in a very lazy voice: "We also need to take a look at the security and construction situation of the steel plant."

Zhou Yamei tapped the pencil in her hand and asked, "So, we can go home when you come back?"

"Um?"

Li Xuewu opened his eyes and turned to glance at Zhou Yamei, then resumed his posture and asked, "Have you had enough?"

"Although Liangyuan is good, it is not my hometown."

Zhou Yamei said in a low voice, then raised his head and looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Besides, you and Xiao Ning are getting married soon, and it won't be convenient for Zhidong and I to live here."

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the dim living room and said, "I'm not sure if I can solve everything this time."

After saying that, he added: "Also, Zhidong is already studying here. You don't plan to settle here?"

"How to decide?"

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu and said, "My registered residence relationship with Zhidong is both in Gangcheng. You won't help transfer your registered residence just for a psychiatrist, right?"

Li Xuewu glanced at Zhou Yamei again and said, "It depends on you. If you want to stay in the capital, I will think of a way."

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu, paused for a while, and then shook his head.

Although Li Xuewu couldn't see it, she knew that Li Xuewu could feel it.

She thought about this question many times in her mind, what should she do if Li Xuewu invited her to stay.

Being cared for by Li Xuewu here can give your children more opportunities and make your and your children's lives better.

But she thought for a long time and chose to go home, where she had her roots and even more so her children's roots.

"If the problem is not solved this time"

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "What are you going to do with Zhidong and me?"

Li Xuewu put his hands behind his head, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's okay to live here, it's not like I can't live here."

"You know what I mean"

Zhou Yamei repeated helplessly, Li Xuewu must know what she meant.

"Um"

Li Xuewu thought for a while and said, "Just stay here and help us with the housework and take care of the children."

"I'm a nanny"

Zhou Yamei angrily hit Li Xuewu with a folder and said helplessly: "I have never seen a doctor who also had to work part-time as a nanny."

"Didn't you just see this?"

Li Xuewu sat up with a smile, took another sip from the teacup, and didn't pay attention to Zhou Yamei's eyes.

"If you don't want to stay in the capital, there's no point in moving around."

Zhou Yamei heard what Li Xuewu said and knew that what he said made sense. However, she thought that the second floor would be Li Xuewu and Gu Ning's wedding room, so she still said: "Then my child and I will move to the first floor, which will be the right room." Everything is available.”

"Haha, why bother with that?"

Li Xuewu smiled and waved his hand, rejecting Zhou Yamei's opinion indifferently.

Now that everyone has stayed, do you still care about her and the child?

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu's eyes and asked: "I want to advise you. It may be a bit offensive. You can choose to listen or not."

"About women?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, then leaned on the sofa and looked at Zhou Yamei with a deep look in his eyes.

Zhou Yamei also looked at Li Xuewu. She had always thought that Li Xuewu was a smart person, so she was not surprised that he could guess what she meant.

Looking at Li Xuewu's eyes at this moment, she felt a little bit stuck.

To say it or not to say it?

But now it's no longer possible not to talk, because the topic has opened and there is no way to stop it.

"yes"

Zhou Yamei thought about it and said, "It's not just because of the fact that you are married, but also because of your career and life."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and winked at Zhou Yamei to signal her to continue.

Zhou Yamei also rubbed her brows helplessly and said, "I don't know why, but I just want to advise you not to go astray. All relationships without emotional foundation come with conditions."

Seeing Li Xuewu's gaze on her, Zhou Yamei raised her hands in surrender and said, "Okay, I won't say anything anymore."

"hehe"

Li Xuewu glanced at the second floor, and then said to Zhou Yamei: "Actually, you are right. As some things change, my social relationships should also change."

Zhou Yamei looked at Li Xuewu in surprise. In her opinion, a strong person like Li Xuewu would not allow others to question him.

Li Xuewu didn't care about the surprise in Zhou Yamei's eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm not a tyrant. Your suggestion is very timely. At least I won't doubt my charm."

Zhou Yamei covered her face speechlessly and lay on the sofa as if giving up, feeling that she was completely humiliated.

Li Xuewu stood up with a smile and said, "Thank you for your advice" as he walked upstairs.

"Fuck you!~~~"

"Hey hey hey"

Ignoring the anger in the living room, Li Xuewu went up to the second floor. Although he didn't hear the eavesdropping and escaping footsteps, Li Xuewu was sure that Gu Ning must have heard his voice.

"You still up?"

Standing at the door of the guest bedroom and looking at everyone in the room, Li Xuewu's voice was full of magnetism and warmth.

Gu Ning and Fu Zhidong, who was leaning on the bed next to him, raised their heads.

"Uncle~"

Fu Zhidong showed a big smile, climbed out of the bed, walked to the end of the bed and stood there and said to Li Xuewu: "I heard your snoring."

"Yeah~"

Li Xuewu smiled and gently tapped his godson's belly and asked, "Does it make any noise?"

"Ring! Like the sound of a tiger"

Fu Zhidong imitated the look of the tiger in the album, gave Li Xuewu a hard time, and then started to giggle again.

When Gu Ning saw Li Xuewu enter the room, he closed the book in his hand and stood up.

"it's over?"

"Um"

Li Xuewu teased Fu Zhidong a few times, then pointed to his watch and asked his godson: "It's half past nine, what time is it?"

"Bedtime"

Fu Zhidong dared to negotiate terms with his mother, but he did not dare to negotiate terms with his godfather.

Although Li Xuewu didn't live here, he just didn't dare to disobey Li Xuewu.

There was no need for anyone to coax her at this moment. She sorted out the picture album and put it on the bedside. Then she got into bed and paid homage to Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu came to the door and followed Gu Ning back to the master bedroom.

The master bedroom here occupies more than half of the space on the second floor, including a study, a small living room, a dressing room, a bedroom and a bathroom.

I have to say that the previous owner knew how to enjoy himself. As long as he was on the second floor, he could do everything in his pajamas without worrying about the risk of politeness.

"Aren't you going back yet?"

Everyone knew that Li Xuewu had followed him into the house, but he waited until he reached the study before turning around and saying this.

Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning, who was playing tricks on him, and asked with a smile: "I'm on the train tomorrow afternoon. Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Gu Ning turned around and put the books in her hands on the bookshelf. Maybe she was struggling internally, and her hands were shaking nervously. There were so many books on the bookshelf that she couldn't put them away after several times.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a shadow coming from behind and surrounding me.

Li Xuewu stood behind Gu Ning. His left hand went around Gu Ning and he opened the books on the bookshelf. His right hand went around Gu Ning's other side and held Gu Ning's hand holding the book.

Gu Ning only felt that his whole body was surrounded, especially his right hand, which was held by a pair of big hands.

At this moment, his right hand started to shake involuntarily, but it was held by the big hand of the bad guy behind him.

Gu Ning watched the books being put into the bookshelf bit by bit, and her nose twitched a little faster unknowingly.

It was as if the air was cut off by the person behind him, and his breathing was suppressed, making it difficult to breathe.

After Li Xuewu put the books away, he did not let go of his right hand and placed his left hand directly on the bookshelf.

"you……"

Gu Ning turned around suddenly, but was surrounded by Li Xuewu on the bookshelf, and couldn't help but lean back.

But there was only a bookshelf in the way. She tried her best to lean back, but the people in front of her also came closer.

My right hand was grabbed by the person in front of me. On one side was the desk, on the other side was the person's arm...

What's even more serious is...he's coming...

Li Xuewu looked into Gu Ning's eyes, getting closer and closer, and his head gradually lowered.

Gu Ning was like a kitten forced into a corner, her body was shaking nervously and her eyes were closed involuntarily.

She knew what Li Xuewu was going to do, she knew this bad guy was going to do something bad, but she didn't know how to refuse.

Looking at Gu Ning, who was tense in front of him, Li Xuewu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and then he leaned his head and pressed lightly on Gu Ning's forehead.

"gone"

Gu Ning only felt a kiss on her forehead, and then heard this sentence, and her hand was about to be released.

For some reason, Gu Ning squeezed the big hand that was about to leave.

When she hurriedly opened her eyes to say something, she saw a face with a bad smile under the dim lights.

——

The early morning sunlight shines through the glass window on Li Xuewu's face... and butt...

I forgot to close the curtains last night, and the changing angle of the train made the sunlight become naughty.

Because there were only three division-level cadres on this train, Li Xuewu slept in a soft sleeper.

Last night, I drank for more than two hours with the deputy director of the Disciplinary Supervision Office who was on a business trip to the steel factory, so Li Xuewu got a lower bunk.

The one who couldn't drink had to go to bed early, so it was good to be able to drink.

Reaching out and scratching his chin, Li Xuewu squinted one eye and looked out the window. Knowing that it was getting late, he touched the watch under the pillow.

"Huh~"

After taking a breath, Li Xuewu climbed up on the bed, looked at himself with only his underwear left, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

At this time, if you go out and take the train, you can only stay overnight if you can. Even if you have a sleeper, you should wear more conservative clothes.

Not to mention wearing pajamas, you must have big pants.

Li Xuewu didn't think about those gadgets at all. Maybe Yu Li had prepared them, but he couldn't remember changing them.

Looking at the empty bed opposite and above, Li Xuewu knew that he got up the latest.

Indeed, by the time he got dressed and was about to go out, the guys on the opposite side and in the upper bunk had already returned from dinner.

"Hey, there are steamed buns and soy milk in the car."

The deputy director of the Disciplinary Supervision Office, who had been drinking with Li Xuewu all night, did not look hungover at all. He gestured to Li Xuewu and said, "The pickles they have here are pretty good. You can try them."

"Okay~"

Li Xuewu smiled, took the toiletry bag, and walked out the door in a wrong way.

Because it was an extra carriage, the people on this train were all employees of the steel rolling mill or steelmaking plant.

There are two soft sleepers, four hard sleepers, and the rest are all hard seats.

It can be used for commuting or as a carriage for leaders to travel.

There is no particularly luxurious decoration, but there are many steel rolling mills, so the basic food is still good.

This is reflected in the meals on the commuter train. When it was Li Xuewu's turn to eat, he did find that the pickles on the train were good.

After asking the conductor, the relationship was made locally in Steel City.

Han Jiankun woke up early and was sitting opposite Li Xuewu. He hadn't eaten yet, waiting for Li Xuewu to come.

"How many times have you been on business trips since you started working?"

"No"

Hearing the director's question, Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu and shook his head.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Not even once?"

"without"

Han Jiankun's answers are always very concise, and it is definitely not a luxury to say one less word.

Li Xuewu nodded, took a sip of soy milk, and glanced outside the car window.

The conductor also said just now that Steel City was coming, so Li Xuewu also took the time to get up.

“This place is very evil”

Li Xuewu curled his lips and threatened Han Jiankun: "I killed a comrade here, killed a driver, and even had someone hold a gun on him."

Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu and said nothing, but his eyes fully expressed suspicion.

He is not a child. He has been with Li Xuewu for almost three months. How can he still not know the virtues of a leader?

Call him young, but he is very mature in his approach. Call him sophisticated, but sometimes he is naughty.

"Do not believe?"

Li Xuewu tilted his mouth, looked at Han Jiankun and snorted twice, and then said: "Do you know what Yan Jiecheng's training ground is like?"

Han Jiankun glared, and although he didn't say anything, his expression still expressed the question.

Li Xuewu nodded helplessly and continued to eat his morning meal with his head down.

Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu for a while, then reached to his waist and quietly opened the safety.

This thing on his waist is not a piece of wood, and he, Han Jiankun, is not Yan Jiecheng. If something happens, just compare who can shoot accurately.

Li Xuewu also noticed Han Jiankun's little moves, but did not stop him.

Telling Han Jiankun this just made him nervous. This time he was not here for tourism, but to kill people.

Although he is now the deputy director, he no longer has to go to the front line to play with others in the bathtub and spray guns.

But the purpose of his coming here is to deal with those people. The rabbit bites people when it is anxious. How can they let him catch them without any help?

So it was a life and death struggle, and his appearance represented a signal to kill.

Sometimes you don't need a knife or a gun to kill someone. You took away his life's greedy savings, which is also a kind of harm.

"We've arrived at Steel City. We're ready to pull into the station. Pack up and get ready to get off."

The conductor of the truck was from Gangcheng, and his mouth smelled like dirt. He stood at the end of the carriage and shouted, and the whole carriage heard him.

Han Jiankun took Li Xuewu's toiletry bag to the soft sleeper compartment, packed Li Xuewu's luggage and walked back.

Neither of them was in a hurry. The conductor shouted that it would take at least ten minutes before the car could stop properly.

This is a special freight train. It goes directly to the dispatching workshop of the steel plant. It doesn't make a stopover, so there is nothing to be anxious about.

However, the people in the carriage didn’t think so. They had been stuck in the car for half a day and a night, and they were used to actively queuing up to get off the train, so the aisle was a little crowded.

Li Xuewu rushed to his seat and watched the scenery outside the window slowly slide by until he entered the workshop of the steelmaking plant from the railway passage.

Through the car window, Li Xuewu had seen the figure of Xu Ning slowly flashing past to pick him up at the station.

Xu Ning also saw the director sitting in his seat, walked over with a smile and waved.

Li Xuewu smiled and gestured to the people in the carriage, and then gestured to the door.

Xu Ning understood and went straight to the car door to wait.

Li Xuewu turned to look at Han Jiankun and introduced: "Xu Ning, the director of the Steel City Security Department."

"Know"

Han Jiankun nodded and said, "I heard it mentioned before."

Li Xuewu knew what Han Jiankun was talking about. It was just Xu Ning following him, jumping in three steps and walking in one stride.

However, Li Xuewu didn't care about these discussions. It was this informality that made the Security Office full of vitality and fighting spirit.

The security department is responsible for protecting safety, and of course it uses the energy of young people. How can it be that an old man in his fifties or sixties is talking to you~

"Director, how are you on the way?"

When Xu Ning saw Li Xuewu getting out of the car, he saluted first, and then greeted him with a smile.

Li Xuewu returned the gesture, smiled and patted Xu Ning's arm, saying: "Okay, eat well and sleep well."

After speaking, he pointed to Han Jiankun behind him and introduced: "This is Han Jiankun."

"Hello"

Xu Ning smiled and extended his hand to greet Han Jiankun. Han Jiankun also held Xu Ning's hand and said, "Hello, Director Xu, I am the leader's driver."

"Haha, don't call the director when the leader comes."

Xu Ning looked at Li Xuewu and smiled and said, "It would be troublesome if the leader gave me small shoes."

Li Xuewu stood on the platform and was looking at the steelmaking plant area. Hearing these words, he turned around and said with a smile: "Then be careful. I'm here this time and I've prepared a box of shoes."

"Then I really have to pay attention, hahaha~"

The gathering of comrades who had fought together was naturally filled with laughter, but the situation Xu Ning reported to Li Xuewu after getting on the bus made Li Xuewu have to tighten his mind and listen carefully to Xu Ning's report.

"In mid-March, the disciplinary inspectors came in, and now they have basically figured out the situation in the city."

Xu Ning reported to Li Xuewuhui seriously: "Chief Ji couldn't hold himself back for a long time. After contacting Nie Liansheng, he chased three major figures in a row, but got nothing."

"Well, he told me"

Li Xuewu frowned slightly and nodded: "All three are dead. Have you found out who did it?"

"At first, Section Chief Ji didn't expect things to take such a turn for the worse."

Xu Ning was also a little surprised that this happened, and explained the reason to Li Xuewu: "The first person to die was Ma Liuzi, who was the one who slipped through the cracks in the case you handled last time. When we just decided to fix him, I found him killed in the back mountain."

"The second one was provided by Yu Min, the deputy director of Gangcheng Food Factory, Mu Hai, and Section Chief Ji took people to follow him all night, and found him hanged the next day."

"The third one was the leader of the Gangcheng Youth Art Troupe, who committed suicide by drowning himself in the river."

Li Xuewu squinted at the office building of the steelmaking plant and asked, "When will they come back?"

"Section Chief Ji went to check the channels. Wen Hanze and Yu Min are cooperating with Nie Liansheng to find the warehouse. They won't be back until about six or seven o'clock in the evening."

Xu Ning thought for a moment and then said, "If you want to take over the case first, you can go to the food factory and find Section Chief Ji."

"Not in a hurry"

As soon as the car stopped, Li Xuewu pushed open the door and got out of the car, saying, "See Secretary Dong first."

Li Xuewu naturally told Dong Wenxue that he was coming. Now that he has arrived, the first stop is of course to meet Dong Wexue.

The master and apprentice had a long talk last time at the steel rolling mill. Ten days later, Li Xuewu came to Steel City and brought some bad news.

Xu Ning naturally didn't know what Li Xuewu wanted to talk to the leader, but he still followed Li Xuewu's schedule.

He was sent to Dong Wenxu's office, and after a few pleasantries, he went to arrange Li Xuewu's accommodation.

Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxu were sitting on the sofa, and the ten-day gap was not so awkward or awkward.

Dong Wexue looked at Li Xuewu and asked with a smile: "Have you received the certificate?"

"Um"

Li Xuewu smiled, and then said: "Tuesday, the 8th."

Dong Wenxue smiled and nodded, and said happily: "Okay, starting a family and starting a business is a big test for a man."

"You have to give me some kind words to Uncle Gu."

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "I really can't make arrangements until he comes back."

Dong Wenxue looked at his proud student with a smile and said, "Why don't you know how to make a phone call yourself?"

"How dare you"

Li Xuewu smiled bitterly and said: "That phone call is directly to the headquarters, in case it delays Uncle Gu's work, haha."

"Have you ever been scared?"

Dong Wenxue smiled and continued: "The old leader looks very serious, but in fact he cares about family ties. He treats Gu Ning and you the same way. Keep in touch and everything will be fine."

Li Xuewu understands that Dong Wenxue talks about Gu Ning first and then himself. No matter what Gu Haitao's identity is, as long as Gu Ning is around, he is his uncle and his family.

But this was what Dong Wenxue said. Li Xuewu was not prepared to do this. Unless the call was particularly urgent, he would never make it.

Besides, since they are all grown-ups, it is always a bit embarrassing to communicate on the phone.

Dong Wenxue naturally knew Li Xuewu's thoughts. He came here the same way back then, so he couldn't give Li Xuewu much advice.

After saying a few words about personal matters, Dong Wenxue asked about the situation of the steel rolling mill.

Although the Security Office sent out briefings every day, the text had limitations after all, and he still wanted to hear the explanation from the person involved, Li Xuewu.

"The seeds we planted last year have blossomed."

Li Xuewu told Dong Wenxue what happened when the leaders came to investigate the day before yesterday, focusing on his own safety system and applications.

Dong Wenxue nodded and said: "I didn't expect that this seed could bloom and bear fruit. I didn't have much confidence at the time."

“This is all thanks to my wife’s hard work.”

Li Xuewu pointedly mentioned Han Shu's dedication and hard work in this work, which made Dong Wenxue smile.

"You have the ability"

Dong Wenxue flicked the ashtray in the ashtray and said with emotion: "At that time, you said you were doing it in the security department, and in the future it will be done in the whole factory. I was still thinking about it. Even if the whole place is doing double contingency plans, it won't take five or eight years. "Yeah."

After sighing, Dong Wenxue shook his head and said: "Time is also destiny, and after going round and round, you succeeded."

"We are together"

Although Li Xuewu smiled, he also said seriously: "Whether it is the double plan or the work report that is about to be handed in, you are the leader."

“Actually, it’s not necessary.”

Dong Wenxue waved his hand humbly and said: "I told you when I was transferred to Steel City that my focus is no longer on the steel rolling mill. The more stable you are, the better."

"I think having you in the security department makes us feel at ease."

Li Xuewu smiled and flattered the truth in his heart, and then raised his eyebrows and said: "I am still a grass now. I can't withstand strong winds and waves, so I can only hide here with you."

Dong Wenxu smiled and nodded to Li Xuewu. What he said was not due to the double plan.

Sometimes Dong Wenxue feels inexplicable when he thinks of his student Li Xuewu. What was the fate that made the two fall in love at first sight?

It is not just a few words from Sister Xie that can lead to this good story of master-disciple relationship in the steel rolling mill.

With Li Xuewu's humility and ability, maybe he also has his own dodge.

"Is the situation at the rolling mill serious?"

"It should be said that it's Deputy Director Li..."
