No one is destined to sleep tonight.

The director's office on the fifth floor of Nianwei Hospital.

There were two people standing by the window.

Li Xiangnan and Wang Defa.

"How about you go back first? I'll wait for news here!" Wang Defa took out a cigarette and handed it to him, telling him to go back and accompany his brother and sister-in-law.

"I've asked Ruobai for leave, so I can sleep at work tonight!" Li Xiangnan lit a cigarette, put his arm on the windowsill, and looked at the starry night sky, feeling both calm and nervous.

He was calm because the river view was so pleasant that it made him feel stable both physically and mentally.

Uneasy - because, after all, some things that happen tonight will determine the direction of many things in the future.

He was waiting for two pieces of news.

Wang Defa looked at his watch and saw that it was past twelve o'clock, so he went to the flower pot in the room, brought out the stretcher bed and spread it out flat, and shouted, "Then you sleep on the sofa, this bed is hard, I'll sleep here tonight!"

Li Xiangnan nodded. Not wanting to be distracted by Shen Yujing's affairs, he asked, "How is the old man these days?"

"It's OK. I'm busy too. Brother Zhang and Senior Brother Zhisheng often go to see him! It solved a lot of my problems!"

"That's good!" Li Xiangnan exhaled a puff of smoke and asked, "How are you and Xiao Fu?"

After waiting for a long time without hearing any answer, he turned around and saw Defa scratching his head with a red face, looking embarrassed.

"Go away, you're still embarrassed! Everyone knows that you have some feelings for her!" Li Xiangnan directly exposed his thoughts.

Defa's face became even more embarrassed. His face remained red for a long time, and suddenly he fell on the stretcher like a deflated ball.

"Maybe everyone thinks I'm interested in her, so she feels pressured!"

Hearing the helplessness in these words, Li Xiangnan put out his cigarette, walked to the sofa and sat down, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Wang Defa turned his back to him embarrassedly, "She's afraid of delaying me!"

"..." Li Xiangnan opened his mouth, but had no words to comfort him.

Defa has always been meticulous and sensitive.

So he would be able to sense how Fu Manlin felt about him.

Fu Manlin has been deaf and mute since childhood and is extraordinarily sensitive to everything around her.

Defa was so good to her, she must have known what this man was thinking a long time ago.

She considered herself to be deaf-mute and certainly didn't want to ruin Defa's good life.

So I will definitely distance myself from him emotionally.

Li Xiangnan thought of Pang Weinong.

He and Ding Xiang were together through life and death, and their love was so loyal that no one could replicate their feelings.

But in this world, there are separations by death as well as separations by life.

Defa and Xiaofu are such people.

Li Xiangnan could feel Defa's love for Xiaofu, and also understood Xiaofu's feelings for Defa.

But lovers eventually get married, not everyone has such a good result.

Is that what many lovers pursue throughout their lives?

Jingle Bell!

Suddenly, a rapid phone call interrupted Li Xiangnan's thoughts.

Wang Defa sat up suddenly.

Li Xiangnan also stood up immediately, rushed to the table, answered the phone, and immediately said hello.

"Little Li!"

"Brother Sun, what's going on?"

The voice on the phone was Sun Jie. Hearing his voice, Li Xiangnan suddenly felt a little nervous.

"My father-in-law left without even having dinner. It was only 6: at that time! I finished my dinner at my father-in-law's house, spent time with my family and my brother-in-law, and called you as soon as I got home! Anyway, when I came back just now, my father-in-law hadn't come home yet... It should be done!"

Hearing Sun Jie say this, Li Xiangnan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, Brother Sun, thank you very much!"

"We are brothers, why thank you? I am sorry to have kept you waiting so late! Go to bed early!"

"Brother Sun knows, and so do you. Goodbye!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiangnan breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Is it done?" Wang Defa was staring beside him, equally nervous, just about to ask Li Xiangnan to say no.

"Yeah!" Li Xiangnan knew that he couldn't sleep, so he gave him a cigarette, and the two of them walked to the window and stood there again.

"Now, all we need is Zimo's call!" Wang Defa grinned.

……

Beihai Park.

It is adjacent to Jingshan Park in the east, Zhongnanhai in the south, and Shichahai in the north. It has beautiful scenery, profound cultural charm, and a leisurely and comfortable environment.

The May wind has already blown in from the night sky, bringing with it the refreshing scent of the lake. The people who have just got off the car are facing the night wind, but their moods are different.

"The wind and clouds are gathering here, the imperial family has been here for thousands of years! What a scenic spot!" Wen Xianping was walking on the lake path with lush grass and dense forests, feeling very emotional. He looked back and said with a smile: "Director Shen, how elegant!"

"..."

Shen Yujing no longer knew what expression was on his face at this moment.

How could he have the mind to appreciate the beautiful scenery? It was only May and the night breeze was quite cool, but his back was already soaked with sweat. The closer he got to his destination, the slower his steps became.

"Chief Wen, why are you here? If you want to see the scenery, there's no need to come here so late at night. It's dark here and you can't see anything. I'll personally take you here to see it during the day, okay?"

Hearing the words behind him, the arrogant and domineering tone had already turned into cautious and nervous one with a strong sense of uneasiness. Wen Xianping stopped, turned sideways and waited for Shen Yujing to approach.

"Director Shen, do you really think I came here tonight to take you to see the scenery?"

"Chief Wen, no...no?" Shen Yujing silently wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Director Shen, you are a smart man. Don't you know where I am going?" Wen Xianping looked at the other party calmly.

"Section Chief Wen, you... you are joking! How would I know where you are going..." Shen Yujing said this, and suddenly pointed in the opposite direction, "Hey, Section Chief Wen, didn't you say you wanted to check me? Let's go to my workplace, to my workplace, and let you check me out!"

"Going to your unit?" Wen Xianping repeated and followed.

"Yes, isn't the best place to investigate corruption and officials the workplace?"

Shen Yujing lowered his head. Wen Xianping was already one step away from him, but he didn't dare to look into the other's eyes.

"But if I want to investigate you, why would I go to your workplace? You are such a smart person, you must have cleaned up your workplace long ago! I can even say that your Technology Department is cleaner than your home! If I want to investigate you, your workplace is the last place I should go!"

Wen Xianping laughed, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Shen Yujing's arm, and asked with a smile: "Director Shen, why are you shaking so hard? Are you scared?"

"Section Chief Wen..." Shen Yujing's voice was trembling, "What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't... I didn't!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his wrist was violently grabbed by the other party.

"Then Director Shen, let's go to the teahouse! Your teahouse!"

"What did you say? Teahouse, yours or mine? I don't know. It's not mine..."

Hurala!

Almost instantly after Wen Xianping finished speaking, Shen Yujing let out a scream and fell into the flowers on the side of the road.

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place! Shen Yujing, look at how panicked you are. I'm really curious about how many unexpected surprises you have hidden in that teahouse!"

Wen Xianping stared at him coldly and waved his hand fiercely: "Carry him and take him to the teahouse!"

"Yes!"
