Seeing the scene in front of him, Bai Zhe silently picked up the car keys and exited Dong Xiaorui's house.
He knew that Qi Chao was probably the only one left who could comfort her.
A man walked downstairs, opened the car door, and Bai Zhe sat in quietly.
It was still raining outside, and the raindrops seemed bigger than when they came.
There is no doubt that Zhang Youde will die if Dong Xiaorui's bill is handed over.
But in the same way, Dong Xiaorui's career will also come to an end, and he will no longer be a civil servant.
[Do you really want to destroy someone for the sake of your own future? 】
Bai Zhe is a little confused now. He is not sure whether this is the right thing to do.
But if he doesn't do this, he has no better choice.
The officialdom is so cruel, either you die or I die. Bai Zhe believes that he never needs sympathy, because only the weak will beg for mercy from others.
[Why are you so hesitant here? He might be indulging in the gentle countryside right now, really...] Bai Zhe shook his head with a wry smile. After all, it is a good thing that Dong Xiaorui is willing to give out the account list. Even if he has to spit out all the money he received, it will probably be all. Even that kid can afford it. Isn’t it just a job? What kind of job does a woman need when she has a good man to take care of her?
Thinking of this, Bai Zhe's mood suddenly became brighter and he walked away from Dong Xiaorui's touching love story just now.
Bai Zhe's eyes gradually showed a hint of cruelty.
[Zhang Youde, I gave you a chance, and all the consequences are your own fault...]
In this era of intrigues, things should be like this. Bai Zhe can give in again and again, but once he is forced into a corner, when he fights back, he will probably have no room to fight back.
Bai Zhe was sitting in the car thinking about something when he saw a beautiful woman wearing a white shirt getting out of a taxi outside the car. She saw the car and circled around it with an umbrella.
Until she turned to the car and saw Bai Zhe sitting in the car, she walked over and knocked on the car window.
I don't know what happened, but Bai Zhe pressed the button on the door, but the car window never moved, so he had to open the door to let the raindrops in.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Under the umbrella, there is a handsome face, with long shawl hair scattered on the white shirt, looking particularly beautiful.
"Is this your car?"
Her voice was very pleasant, and it sounded especially sweet to the sound of the pattering rain, like a silver bell.
Bai Zhe smiled and shook his head: "No, this is my friend's car."
"Oh, that's how it is……"
The woman looked a little disappointed. Her suit was placed on the arm holding the mobile phone. She was holding an umbrella in one hand. The black high-heeled shoes under her feet were already wet from the rain. There were also some water stains on the flesh-colored stockings. Bai Zhe looked at the beauty from top to bottom. I felt good in my heart.
"Do you need help?"
"Yes!" The beauty nodded vigorously and smiled shyly at Bai Zhe.
"Actually, I'm lost now, but I'm afraid I won't have money to pay the driver, so I got off the bus early and wanted to find a ride back to the city."
Bai Zhe only muttered in his heart: "It's so late at night, she can't be the nightclub girl of Lishui Hotel here to catch a rich husband, right?" 】
The woman seemed to see through Bai Zhe's worries and quickly handed over a business card.
"I work in the city government. This is my business card. Here it is."
Bai Zhe took the business card and looked at it; Gao Huilin, secretary of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Office of Linhe District Government, Lingzhou City, phone number...
"Oh, you are from Linhe District Government?"
Bai Zhe knew that Linhe District belonged to the High-tech Development Zone of Lingzhou City. If he could pass by here in the middle of the night, he must be heading to Zhanghe City for work. He probably rushed back overnight because of some situation.
"Get in the car. It's raining and cold outside. Let's talk in the car."
Gao Huilin's face burst with joy, she smiled and nodded: "Okay, thank you."
She opened the car door and sat in the back seat first, then closed the umbrella and slowly closed the door with her legs.
Judging from her behavior, she must have a good family background and be a well-educated woman.
The moment she sat up, Bai Zhe suddenly thought of Qin Shuya, so he shook his head with a wry smile, turned to Gao Huilin and asked, "It's so late, are you going back to the city?"
Gao Huilin pursed her lips and said, "There is nothing I can do. I encountered something, so I want to ask you for help."
[Hey, I feel really sleepy now. It would be great if I could just take a nap...]
Originally, he wanted to hear what she was thinking, but Bai Zhe heard this.
"What's the matter? Is it urgent? How about I ask a friend to take you to check out a room later?"
Hearing Bai Zhe's words, Gao Huilin took a breath.
[Am I on a pirate ship? Why is he so rude? I want to get off, but where can I go if I get off so late? 】
Bai Zhe slapped his forehead.
[Careless, slip of the tongue. 】
"Girl, don't get me wrong. What I mean is that I can help you open a guest room at our place. You can take a rest and take a taxi back tomorrow."
After Bai Zhe explained, Gao Huilin breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest repeatedly.
[Phew, I was scared to death. I thought I met a gangster. 】
"Uh-huh, no need. I'm in a hurry to get back. There is a very important document that the leader will use tomorrow."
Gao Huilin said, holding her skirt nervously with her hands. When Bai Zhe didn't pay attention, she quickly lowered her head and made a troubled face.
[This is really embarrassing. It turns out I misunderstood them. Ah, I’m so embarrassed. No, I have to leave here...]
"Miss……"
Seeing that she really planned to leave, Bai Zhe quickly spoke out.
"Um?"
Gao Huilin looked at Bai Zhe doubtfully.
Bai Zhe showed a smile and said, "How about you wait in the car for a while, and I'll ask a friend to drive you."
"Well, okay, thank you."
Gao Huilin nodded repeatedly and kept rubbing her legs in flesh-colored stockings with her hands in embarrassment.
[This damn weather is really cold...]
Bai Zhe quickly took off his coat and put it in front of her: "Here, it's cold. You cover your legs to warm them up first. It'll be fine when the car starts moving."
[Mom wants me to marry her a daughter-in-law as soon as possible. Isn’t this possible? 】
Bai Zhe thought so, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Thank you, I'm really sorry."
Gao Huilin quietly stuck out her tongue [Unexpectedly, he is still a handsome guy, hehe...]
Isn't there a popular saying on the Internet: High-end hunters often wear the clothes of prey...
Bai Zhe immediately decided to send a text message to Qi Chao.
'How is things going? Come back soon...'
He looked up and saw that the light in Dong Xiaorui's bedroom went out, and then it was too late to withdraw the text message. The screen of his mobile phone showed that the message was sent successfully.
There was an indescribable atmosphere of ambiguity everywhere in the car, so the two of them didn't talk much.
[What if he is a bad guy? Am I not throwing myself into a trap? 】
[I'm so sleepy, I really want to sleep. No, I must not sleep. What if he comes up and molests me? 】
[No, I’d better sleep. Well, the smell on these clothes is so good...]
Listening to the silly girl behind him, Bai Zhe just smiled but said nothing, quietly waiting for Qi Chao to return to the car.
