Same crime

There was silence along the way, and the car finally stopped at the entrance of the hotel where Gong Yuechao was staying. Gong Yuechao thanked Wei Jiangyuan politely, unfastened his seat belt with his backhand and prepared to get off the car, Wei Jiangyuan thanked him in turn, " Thank you for accompanying me to find my dad, and thank you for accompanying me to talk about him, I feel much better." He looked back at his father.

Gong Yuechao said: "It's okay, you don't have to be polite." As he said that, he opened the door of the car and opened it a crack, but couldn't help closing the door again.

Wei Jiangyuan looked at him in surprise, as if he wanted to ask if he had anything else to say.

Gong Yuechao hesitated for a moment, and said to him: "Actually, I want to tell you, don't do things that you regret."

"Huh?" Wei Jiangyuan's expression quickly changed from surprise to stunned, even a little dull. He seemed to realize what Gong Yuechao was going to say, and there was sadness in his eyes again, "You mean..."

"I think you should understand what I mean. Since you still have feelings for him in your heart, you shouldn't give up lightly. Yusheng and I have been good friends for more than [-] years, and we can't understand him very well. He has always been It's not that he has no responsibility. Now he can become the director of a law firm. He has such a great reputation in Suijiang's lawyer circle at a young age. It's not just because of his outstanding professional ability. As someone close to him, you should understand. "

"……Um."

"I know that your father is sick, and you have your difficulties and responsibilities, but I think this can be faced by two people together, but you have to bear it with such a self-proclaimed person, and even broke up with him , and concealed something from him, how do you know that he will shrink back and there is no way to solve it? After all, do you have no confidence in this relationship? I am afraid that after he finds out, he will abandon you instead, and you are afraid that you will be even more embarrassed " After talking about it, Gong Yuechao became a little angry, he analyzed Wei Jiangyuan's concerns straight to the point, and he didn't even show any sympathy.

Wei Jiangyuan opened his mouth slightly, and was speechless. He mumbled for a long time before uttering three words, "Do you want to..." He finished half of his words, and swallowed the rest.

Gong Yuechao knew that Wei Jiangyuan didn't want to involve Chen Yusheng, and didn't want to affect the other party's future, but after being together, a kind of responsibility was formed invisibly.

The relationship between these people is not protected by the law like ordinary men and women. There is no marriage certificate to maintain and bind them. They just rely on trust and moral constraints, which seems unreliable on the surface.But precisely because of this, it is necessary to put in more effort than ordinary men and women, instead of retreating in the face of difficulties.

"My opinion is, explain the matter clearly to him, and then we can discuss whether we want to break up." Gong Yuechao said.

"I..." Wei Jiangyuan only uttered one syllable, and seemed to want to explain for himself, but he had just finished what he had to say in the car, and fell into his own emotions again.

Gong Yuechao patted him on the shoulder, opened the door and got out of the car, but just as he stepped out, Wei Jiangyuan stopped him, "Mr. Gong."

"Huh?" Gong Yue looked back at him.

Wei Jiangyuan took out the velvet box from the bag on his back with a rustle, stretched out his arm and handed it to Gong Yuechao, "Can you help me return this to Yusheng?"

Gong Yuechao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and under Wei Jiangyuan's surprised gaze, he said, "You will have to pay this back yourself."

As soon as Gong Yuechao finished speaking, under the faint light cast by the hotel building, he saw Wei Jiangyuan's reddened face. After a while, the young man nodded to him and said, "What you said makes sense. I should not give up every opportunity to be with him as I did in the past, I will talk to him, if he is willing, I still want to be with him, no matter how difficult the road ahead is." He put the ring box tightly Hold it tightly in your hand.

Gong Yuechao got out of the car, said goodbye to Wei Jiangyuan, and watched him drive away.

After the three-day industry forum, Gong Yuechao absorbed a lot of new concepts and ideas in the construction industry, as well as the design concept of the landscape community. Although it is thousands of miles away from the industry he is currently engaged in, it is also novel to him. .Because of this freshness, he was completely attracted, and many novel ideas burst out in his mind, and he even felt that there was more to come, and the trip was fruitful.

On the plane back, Gong Yuechao was still flipping through the materials sent by the organizer. Feng Pei watched an episode of the TV series and saw that he was not resting, so he asked, "Mr. Gong, our company supplies raw materials. Do you find these useful?" ?”

Gong Yuechao said: "Environmentally friendly building materials will be a major trend in the future. Our province is lagging behind in some advanced things. If we really want to develop in a higher-end direction in the industry, we must learn more from big cities and advanced industries. The country’s architectural philosophy is to find out the market demand from the source. I didn’t study architecture before, and I know very little about this aspect. These will be industry trends in the future, and it’s impossible not to understand them in depth.”

What he said aroused Feng Pei's interest, "That's true." As he spoke, he stopped watching the drama, but asked for some materials from Gong Yuechao, and read it with relish. .

During the flight of more than two hours, Gong Yuechao and Feng Pei discussed the company's work priorities in the next stage in a low voice without affecting others. Combined with the gains from this forum, they came up with many new ideas.Gong Yuechao asked Feng Pei to tidy up after going back, so that he could talk to Shi Mucheng about the business direction of environmental protection building materials. While talking, the topic led to Director Chen in the office. Feng Pei complained impatiently: "Mr. Gong, We went on a business trip this time, and you paid for the air ticket in advance, and we don’t know if we can be reimbursed when we go back. The two of us think well, but I always feel that he wants to take your power."

Gong Yuechao sorted out the materials at hand, sank into the soft seat, pulled the blanket on his body, and said, "Oh, if he has the ability, he will come to grab it. You think there will always be another king next to him every now and then." Snow crimson?"

"But..." Feng Pei hesitated, "Do you think Mr. Shi found out?"

Gong Yuechao asked back: "Mr. Shi is very shrewd. Can't you tell how sincere he is to him? I'm too lazy to argue with Old Chen. I don't want to make things worse with him. I just want to take this opportunity to beat him up. Let him restrain his arrogant arrogance."

Feng Pei was even more surprised. Generally speaking, he had more contact with Director Chen and occasionally complained to Gong Yuechao. Why did this person have a direct conflict with Gong Yuechao?Gong Yuezhao has always been very gentle in dealing with people. When he first arrived, some people in the company would not be convinced, but after a long time, he is still quite popular. It can be seen how much this old Chen can provoke him. As a close person to Gong Yuezhao People, but he didn't know the root cause, "What did he do to you? Why didn't I know?"

"Ha..." Gong Yuechao smiled, "There's no need to say, usually when I ask him to do something, he just prevaricates from the sidelines, which is more annoying than that Huang Yong."

"Hahaha...you are right." Feng Pei agreed with a smile.

The plane began to circle over Zhangzhou, and was guided by the stewardess to make preparations before landing, and the two of them also interrupted their conversation.Later, the flight altitude was lowered a little bit, and finally it stopped smoothly on the tarmac.

They all only brought their cabin suitcases, and they didn't need to go to pick up their luggage. As soon as they turned on their phones, they took the opportunity to get in a call, which was from Qin Zhengzheng.He said before that he would come to the airport to pick him up, so he must have arrived. The caller probably asked him if he had landed. When he pressed the answer button, Gong Yuechao still looked relaxed, but after hearing a few words, his expression suddenly changed. Have to dignify.

Qin Zhengzheng's voice was very low, as if he made the call behind his back, he said: "Teacher, I originally planned to pick you up, but something happened early this morning, and the people in our team should be at the airport at this time Wait for you, I didn't go to avoid suspicion."

"Wait, what's the matter? Tell me clearly so that I can be prepared." Gong Yuechao asked subconsciously after listening.

"It's not convenient for me to talk about it here, so I'll give you a call while I'm in the bathroom. I told you about the specifics on WeChat, and it's not too serious. Fortunately, you've been in Shanghai for the past few days. , or you will be involved again."

Gong Yuechao said: "Then I'll hang up first, we'll talk about something when we see each other."

"it is good."

Gong Yuechao stopped Feng Pei who was striding forward, leaned against the wall, quickly turned on his phone and browsed the messages Qin Zhengzheng had sent him.

The information reads: "Early this morning, a cleaner found a dead body in the bushes by the riverside of Nanbinjiang. We went to the scene after receiving the call. The night before yesterday, we went to investigate again and compared his fingerprints and DNA. This man has a criminal record, his name is Du Jiaping, and his nickname is 'little skinny'. It is understood that Brother Cheng has a deep relationship with him, but after In our inquiry, both of them had alibi, but later the boss of his former workplace suggested that he had contacts with you, and you personally arranged to go there, so our captain needs to ask you for questioning and investigation. But the incident happened You happened to be in Shanghai at the time, so we ruled out your suspicion, so you don’t have to worry at all, I’ll tell you in advance to let you know what’s in your mind, so don’t say it.”

The heating in the airport was fully turned on, but a chill rose from the soles of his feet, and a dense layer of goose bumps appeared on his arms.Feng Pei asked him what was wrong, Gong Yuechao said simply, seeing that Feng Pei's face also changed, he was almost subconsciously nervous, it can be seen that the years of prison life had a profound impact on him, Gong Yuechao quickly comforted him: "You and Du Jiaping There is no intersection per se, this matter has nothing to do with you, the police are here for me, so you don't have to be nervous for me."

"Mr. Gong, what's going on?"

Gong Yuechao didn't answer, but a sense of uneasiness arose in his heart in vain. He even had the answer in his mind, but he couldn't say it. All the chat records in the room, pulled the suitcase, straightened up, and walked towards the exit without being humble.

Zhang Mingfeng hadn't been back to Suijiang for a long time, this time he took advantage of the weekend to go home to get some things, and went to meet someone by the way.After he returned home, he was scolded by the old man. He was already in a bad mood, but he was still full of anger.

He parked the car in front of a hot pot restaurant in the market outside Liuyuan Community, and walked in familiarly.

Wu Yi, the owner of the hot pot restaurant, greeted him, but before he arrived, his stomach got over it first.

Opening a hot pot restaurant in the past few years, coupled with Zhang Mingfeng's support, has made a lot of money. Among these old classmates who often hang out, he is now the one with a solid family background.A few years ago, Qian Siwei, the richest man, had some bad luck and owed a lot of foreign debts. Now he is very depressed, and there are others, which are nothing in his eyes.

Wu Yi was grateful to Zhang Mingfeng from the bottom of his heart, so when Zhang Mingfeng came to him for something, he tried his best to cooperate.

Seeing Zhang Mingfeng, he had a smile on his face, but Zhang Mingfeng felt it was extremely annoying, ignored his smile, and asked him impatiently, "Is he still there?"

Wu Yi looked around nervously, but seeing that no one noticed them, he said, "Here we are."

"Take me in." Zhang Mingfeng's complexion was stern, even colder than this cold weather, and the heat from the hot pot couldn't be covered up.

Wu Yi led him to a small room, which was originally a storage room, until Zhang Mingfeng called him the day before yesterday, and he temporarily vacated the space for this person.

Zhang Mingfeng pushed the door open and went in. Inside, there was a shivering man sitting on the simple camp bed. After seeing him, he showed a frightened look. This man's eyes were originally big and round, and there were thick dark circles around them. He stared wide, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets.

When Zhang Mingfeng saw this person, he became angry, pointed at his head, and asked in a low voice: "Before you started, didn't you know he wasn't in Zhangzhou?"

The man argued with tears in his voice: "How would I know, you asked me to find Director Huang, but Director Huang didn't tell me anything. I didn't know that he had gone to Shanghai until I finished moving, so I came to look for him right away." Did you call for help, and I still feel like I made things seamless."

Zhang Mingfeng pinched his waist, paced back and forth in this small storage room, and finally took out a bundle of money from his handy bag, and threw it into his arms, "In addition to the part agreed before, I will give you an extra These, the farther you can get away with this money, the better."

The man nodded gratefully and got up to leave.

Zhang Mingfeng was so angry that his lips were trembling, "There are guests outside, are you going to die now? Take advantage of the middle of the night!"

He quickly sat down, hugged the money, his eyes were blank, and he didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Zhang Mingfeng gave him a blank look, dragged Wu Yi out of the storage room, closed the door, and made a gesture on his neck with a knife.

As soon as Wu understood, Zhang Mingfeng nodded, tidied up his drapey overcoat, carried his bag, and strode away.

He returned to the car, took out a very new mobile phone and called Huang Yong. Huang Yong's voice was a little flustered, and he asked him how the situation was.

Zhang Mingfeng said: "Why don't you know that this person has gone to Shanghai? Didn't you claim to install a bugging device in his car?"

"Yes, I just saw that his car hadn't moved for a few days, so I thought something was wrong, but it was too late when I found out, what else could I do?"

Zhang Mingfeng was silent for a while, and finally let out the bad breath in his mouth, and said to Huang Yong in an extremely gloomy tone: "I will deal with people, and the next plan is to drag them. It's almost Chinese New Year, let's calm down for a while." .”

"Well, good." Huang Yong replied.
