A person's greatest hobby is nothing more than being a bitch.
Li Nanke is no exception.
Especially when it comes to emotional issues, he always seems to be mystical and hesitant.
This was the case when I faced Sister Leng.
The same is true now when facing the eldest princess.
He always felt that there was no real love between a man and a woman between himself and Bai Ruyue. Although they had been husband and wife for a lifetime, the love in the dream was too ethereal after all.
So he resisted Bai Ruyue's love.
He doesn't know whether the woman likes the character he plays in his dream or the person behind the character.
In addition, the most worrying thing is still the identity of the other party.
For a person who wants to resign from office and live in seclusion, once he becomes romantically involved with a royal princess, there is no hope of stability.
But he couldn't bear to lose this woman.
You might say it was a dream, but the seeds of their feelings have already been planted in their hearts.
Li Nanke's heart would twist when he thought about whether the other party would marry another man in the future, unable to accept such a result.
Of course, being greedy is also one aspect.
After all, what man wouldn't like a peerless beauty like the eldest princess?
I want it but don’t dare to ask for it, and I don’t want it but I can’t let it go.
This is his psychology.
But in the end, when the woman left, Li Nanke, who had always been very rational, chose to be impulsive.
Because he had an intuition that this separation between the two would probably create a deep gap between them. Even if they meet again in the future, there is no possibility of repair.
The moment the man kissed her, Bai Ruyue's mind went blank.
She didn't come back to her senses until the other party got closer. The two sides pressed against each other's chest and tried hard to push him away, but their strength was too weak. In a fit of anger, he kicked the opponent between his legs.
"ah!"
Li Nanke, who was immersed in the situation, suddenly felt a pain and hurriedly raised his head. The woman pushed him away.
Bai Ruyue glared at him fiercely with almond-shaped eyes, her chest rose and fell violently, and she said angrily, "You are so brave! You dare to offend me, do you want to die?"
The woman's pretty face was red with shame and anger.
Li Nanke grimaced to relieve the pain, his face turned pale. Just as he was about to speak, he felt some pain in his neck, and it was even more painful when he touched it with his hand.
On the opposite side, Bai Ruyue saw four blood marks of varying depths on the man's neck.
She was slightly startled and looked down at her nails, knowing in her heart that they were the scars caused by accidentally digging into the man's neck when she pushed him just now.
Bai Ruyue pursed her lips, and the annoyance in her eyes faded a little.
The two fell into a long silence.
In the end, it was Li Nanke who spoke first, "When you return to Beijing this time, do you plan to come back again?"
"Whether I come back or not has anything to do with you?"
Bai Ruyue is still angry.
After all, as a royal princess, it was undoubtedly a humiliation for her to have a strong self-esteem when she took the initiative to propose love but was ruthlessly rejected.
At the same time, she was also hesitant and confused about their relationship.
One thing Li Nanke said is correct: love and reality are two different things.
Will there be consequences for her being a princess and a married man?
Li Nanke laughed dryly and said, "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to see you. After all,... the capital is a bit far away."
Looking at the man's embarrassed expression, Bai Ruyue couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
Is this guy reluctant to leave me?
Thinking of how he had taken the initiative to post before, but was rejected several times. Now that the other party was shamelessly chasing after her again, Bai Ruyue breathed out inexplicably and felt a little prouder in her heart.
Sure enough, this princess is quite charming.
But it's not that simple to calm her down. She doesn't have other women.
Such a nice lake.
Li Nanke said softly: "I have a project to do recently. After the project is over, I plan to resign and live a stable life with my wife."
The woman's smile froze.
What does it mean?
You planned to say a real goodbye to me, so you came here?
Bai Ruyue looked at the man in front of her, feeling sour in her heart for some reason and her eyes were red.
She turned her head and stared at the car curtain, and said coldly: "Where you go is your business, and I won't stop you with chains. Even if you run to the end of the world, it has nothing to do with me!"
"I mean……"
Li Nanke hesitated for a long time before he said shamelessly, "I just want to ask, what will be the consequences if I give up my identity as princess?"
As soon as these words came out, the woman's expression suddenly became strange.
She stared at the man with a solemn expression and sneered: "What do you mean? Let me lose my status as a princess and accompany you to live in seclusion? Li Nanke, who do you think you are? Do you think all the women in the world will revolve around you? ?Are you qualified?"
Faced with Bai Ruyue's furious rebuke, Li Nanke said nothing.
Of course he knew this was impossible.
It's just that I can't think of a way to solve the relationship between the two of them, so I can only ask randomly.
Unless it's like the Empress Dowager, the real person completely disappears from the real world, and at the same time there is an impostor who deceives other people.
"do you like me?"
Bai Ruyue calmed down and raised her eyes to look at the man.
Li Nanke looked away, unable to answer the question. He hesitated for a moment and moved his lips and said, "At least I don't want you to marry anyone else."
"So you don't like me."
The charming and noble woman lowered her eyes and spoke in a self-deprecating tone, her thick eyelashes like a pair of fans motionless.
When Li Nanke was about to say something, Bai Ruyue said: "You are right, there is a difference between dreams and reality after all. I can spend a lifetime with you in a dream, but I cannot spend a lifetime with you in reality.
Unless you abandon your wife and your beauty one day and become someone valued by the emperor, we will have a chance.
But if you really abandon them, how can I like a ruthless person? People are always very contradictory, aren't they? So, we can't. "
The woman's words silenced Li Nanke again.
The wall between the two of them is too high and too thick, and they can't see each other's future at all.
"That's it, you and your wife live a good life. Whether you want to fight for fame and wealth or live in seclusion, it's your choice."
Bai Ruyue smiled and said, "Not everything in life can come from the heart. If you want to see me in the future, you can go to the capital. If you don't want to see me..."
The woman sighed slightly, did not say any more, and took the initiative to lift the curtain to signal the man to get out of the carriage.
Li Nanke felt panicked.
The previous impulse was extinguished by reason.
He stood up and walked towards the outside of the carriage. When he was halfway out of the carriage, he looked back at the woman. Bai Ruyue lowered her eyes and did not look at him, and her hands holding the car curtain were tense and pale.
"I will go to the capital."
Li Nanke said, "And I believe that no matter how difficult the problem is, there is a way to solve it."
Bai Ruyue snorted lightly.
Such a promise is undoubtedly painting a cake and cannot warm a woman's heart.
Li Nanke gently held the woman's cold hand and said, "Actually, I'm not worried that you will be angry with me. I'm just worried that one day your condition will recover."
The man's words are selfish, but they are also true.
Because once Bai Ruyue recovers, it means that she has completely severed that affection.
This is what Li Nanke cannot accept.
"Don't you wish me well?" Bai Ruyue smiled faintly.
Li Nanke said seriously: "I don't want you to recover from your illness, because I can make that medicine and treat you forever."
Hearing the man's words, Bai Ruyue suddenly blushed for some reason.
Apparently thinking of something, he subconsciously tightened his legs under the skirt.
She glared at the man and said angrily, "Shameless."
Li Nanke was confused.
He just expressed his emotions without any connotation. Why did this woman think wrongly?
The relationship between the two, which was originally tense and cool, suddenly relaxed a lot because of this unintentional dirty talk. Even the depressing atmosphere in the carriage was painted with ambiguous tones.
"Are you leaving or not?"
Bai Ruyue put on a pretty face and started chasing people away.
Since the other party misunderstood, Li Nanke simply asked in a low voice: "Don't you need me to treat you again before leaving?"
"roll!"
The woman raised her little foot and kicked the man out of the car door.
But Li Nanke did not fall off the carriage. He turned around and kissed the woman's gorgeous face, then jumped off the carriage and said, "I will definitely go to the capital to find you."
After saying that, the man turned and left.
Bai Ruyue touched the place where she had been kissed on her cheek, her shyness was extremely touching. She looked at the man's back, bit her lip and cursed secretly, her expression suddenly trance-like again.
"It's not impossible to not be a princess..."
The woman lowered the car curtain and said quietly.
…………
Because the scratches on his neck were obvious, Li Nanke did not dare to hang out in front of Sister Leng for a while. After returning to the Night Patrol Department, he began to work on the tasks assigned by his uncle.
To investigate internal officials, the best way is to send someone to conduct round-the-clock surveillance.
At this juncture, the connector will definitely take action.
But who to send to monitor is another problem.
Although he currently holds the position of Deputy Supervisor of the Qinglong Department, it is still unrealistic to find trustworthy and reliable subordinates in the Qinglong Department to help him.
As for Guo Gang Tieniu and others, their abilities are limited.
Not to mention monitoring Deputy Chief Niu Daru, but letting them monitor White Tiger Department Supervisor Li Donghai, it is estimated that they will be discovered by the other party in less than half a day.
How about going to Nie Qianhu for help?
After all, Shadow Guard is an expert in this field.
While Li Nanke was thinking, Li Donghai suddenly came to him.
"Brother Li."
The other party still had the smile on his face when he saw everyone, and he was familiar with Li Nanke as brothers.
Seeing Li Donghai, Li Nanke couldn't help but recall the last time he used a plug-in to sneak into the other person's house to steal Hongyu and saw the other person's wife having an affair.
Let's face it, this guy's wife is indeed in good shape.
Li Nanke admired but also had some sympathy.
After all, he was a high-profile official in the Night Patrol Department. He didn't expect to be labeled as such by his wife, and he didn't know what kind of thing Li Donghai was bad at.
In addition, after Li Nanke stole the other party's Hongyu last time, this guy didn't do much.
But it was much quieter than before.
"I wonder if Mr. Li came to see me for something?" Li Nanke asked.
Li Donghai waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing serious. I just heard that the General Secretary asked you to take charge of the Qinglong Department, so I came here to congratulate you. I have to say that Brother Li is young and promising. He hasn't been in the Night Patrol Department for a long time. So I took up the position of supervisor of the Blue Dragon Division."
Li Nanke frowned.
Is the other party taunting or inquiring about something?
Li Nanke kept a calm expression on his face and said modestly: "Master Li promoted me, I am only temporarily responsible. And this supervisory position is all decided by the higher-ups. In a few days, when the higher-ups arrange someone, I will go back to Zhuque Department."
"Brother Li's words have gone out of his way. Mr. Souji thinks highly of him. How can there be no one above him?"
Li Donghai laughed.
As soon as these words came out, Li Nanke understood the purpose of the other party's coming.
It turns out to be a cliche.
Li Nanke smiled and said: "Sir, Mr. Souji, always values ability. I believe Mr. Souji is most disgusted with the idea of making connections. Otherwise, Sister Leng would have become the Qinglong Club long ago.
of supervision.
And after all, the Blue Dragon Department is different from other departments. Even if the Souji-sama wants to intervene, it would be difficult for him, right? "
Li Nanke's answer was watertight and blocked the other party's questioning.
If you ask further, you are slandering the lord general for favoritism.
Li Donghai nodded with a smile and said with emotion: "The Qinglong Department is indeed different. I remember that Brother Yu used to be obsessed with this man who was the supervisor of the Qinglong Department and even got into a temper."
Brother Yu?
The Xuanwu Department monitors Yu Shengtian?
Li Nanke's eyes flickered, and he suddenly realized that Li Donghai came not just to talk, but also for other purposes.
"Sir Shangguan has been transferred out of the capital, and this position has become a hot commodity. I have heard that Brother Yu has secretly contacted the capital. It seems that he plans to compete with you, Brother Li."
Li Donghai seemed to be reminding Li Nanke intentionally or unintentionally, "Brother Yu, although he has high abilities, he is a bit small-minded.
For so many years, he has been looking down on Mr. Leng's sister, simply because he thought Mr. Souji would take care of his sister and let her enter the Blue Dragon Club. Then use this stepping stone to enter the capital.
However, I heard that Leng Xinnan, Master Leng, may go directly to the capital in a while. It seems that the capital still recognizes her ability.
As a result, Mr. Yu has fewer opponents to compete for the supervisory position of the Qinglong Department. It’s a pity that another young and promising person like you appears..."
Listening to Li Donghai's rambling conversation, Li Nanke fell into deep thought.
Is this sowing discord?
I haven't heard of any major conflicts between Yu Shengtian and him.
Or is it that this guy actually wants the Qinglong Department to monitor this position, so he plans to provoke him and Yu Shengtian to fight, and then sit back and watch the tigers fight to reap the benefits?
In addition, this guy actually knew that Sister Leng was going to the capital, which meant that he also had connections in the capital.
The more Li Nanke thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Who doesn’t want to climb up?
The Qinglong Department can directly contact the capital. If you sit in the supervisory position, it will be much easier to climb up in the future.
"Master Li still doesn't understand what I mean."
Li Nanke was a little tired of this kind of official struggle, so he simply made it clear and said, "Actually, the General Secretary had intended to let me serve as deputy supervisor a long time ago, but I declined.
It's not that I don't believe in my abilities, it's just that I'm used to being laid-back. After all, the more power you gain, the more responsibility you have. I'm not interested in burdening myself with too much.
Moreover, I am still young. If I lose time to spend with my wife and my daughter-in-law becomes lonely and steals from her, wouldn’t it be a shame for me? "
Li Nanke did not forget to tease the other party until the end.
Unfortunately, Li Donghai did not believe that Li Nanke would give up the temptation of pursuing fame and fortune. He laughed loudly after hearing this, patted Li Nanke's arm and said:
"Brother Li is very humorous, so Yu Shengtian will probably be very happy if he hears what you said.
Anyway, that’s all I have to say. I support Brother Li whether he wants to fight or not, but it’s hard to say whether Brother Yu can understand. People, there is no harm in thinking the worst. "
Li Donghai left these meaningful words and left.
Li Nanke stared at the other person's back, shook his head and laughed, "I can't even handle my own wife, and she came here to set a trap for me."
But thinking back to what the other party said, Li Nanke frowned.
In any case, if Yu Shengzhen really intends to snatch this position, friction between the two will indeed be inevitable.
It seems that I need to find an opportunity to chat with the other party.
The other party who saved Sister Leng last time was not as cautious in nature as Li Donghai said.
…………
In the afternoon, Li Nanke and Meng Xiaotu returned home.
After walking around the yard, I still didn't see Yu Hongye, so I ran to the kitchen and asked my wife, "Is Miss Yu gone? I couldn't see her in the morning, and I don't see her now."
"She is sick and has been in the room the whole time." Luo Qianqiu said.
"oh."
Li Nanke didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he left.
.
After dinner, while his wife and Little Rabbit went to the kitchen to wash dishes, Li Nanke couldn't hold back his curiosity and went to the hut where Yu Hongye lived and knocked on the door.
"Miss Yu, are you okay?"
But there was no response from inside the house.
Li Nanke hesitated for a while and was about to leave, but found that the window next to him was open a crack, so he carefully pushed it open and looked inside.
Seeing this, he was completely confused.
I saw a strange little girl sitting on the bed.
The little girl looks somewhat similar to Yu Hongye. She is sitting cross-legged at the moment, with bursts of white smoke coming from her head. She is obviously practicing some kind of skill.
"What's going on? Miss Yu has a daughter?"
