Guyu Street, Changyesi Branch.

Jingle bells, jingle bells…

The landline rang.

Zhou Liu looked at the phone number on the landline and saw that the number was unknown. She didn't answer immediately because she guessed who it was.

After the last few sounds, she picked up the receiver and placed it on the table, as if she was afraid that the sound inside would dirty her ears.

"who?"

"Ah, it's me, Captain Zhou, Zhuang Dao, you remember, the chairman of Daosheng Group, right?"

A businessman's voice came from the other end of the phone. He had a warm smile and sounded like a shopping mall veteran.

"I'm sorry to bother you with a sudden call... After all, we didn't meet very pleasantly last time. It was also because my people's work contracts were inconsistent, which made you misunderstand. Otherwise, I will set up a banquet table at Jinyuhua Mansion next time, and we Let’s have a drink and reconcile?”

Zhou Liu suppressed the nausea in his heart and said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense and say what you have to say."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I just heard that someone in the group was detained by Chang Yesi. I can't make it in time, so I'll give you a call. It's said that he was just speeding. Although he almost hit someone, but We have already obtained the family's understanding. Please be generous and let the person go. Even if he is detained, there is no point. They don't intend to sue, so they will just go through the reconciliation process. Just watch..." Zhuang Dao kept chattering. As he spoke, he sounded kind and persuasive.

In fact, it was just to show off, telling Zhou Liu that it was time to let him go according to the procedures, and there was no point in continuing to hold him captive.

She is a person with strong emotional control, but even she can't control the anger and gloom in her eyes.

She said nothing until the other person stopped chattering.

"Mr. Zhuang, if this is what you want, you don't have to call me directly... I'm very busy and don't have time to argue with you about this... It's true that speeding and knocking people into the hospital are just small things, but don't Forget, I will keep an eye on no matter how small the matter is...anything illegal can't escape Chang Yesi's eyes."

Zhuang Dao sighed: "Why bother? Captain Zhou, you..."

"Well, if you insist on thinking that way, there's nothing I can do about it."

"But, I have to say something ugly up front - everyone has relatives at home. Regardless of yourself, you should also consider the feelings of your family members. If you are happy with this, will others be happy with it?"

The phone was hung up.

A busy signal came.

Zhou Liu exhaled a breath of turbid air and slowly clenched his fists.

She tried to keep her face expressionless.

It's just a provocation on the phone, there's no need to pay too much attention to it.

But she couldn't help but think about the other party's purpose for making this call.

She has been keeping an eye on Daosheng Group for more than two years, ever since she took this position.

This group rose rapidly in just a few years, and what made it rise was just a young man who seemed simple and had no background.

It only took less than five years to eat up most of the foundation of the rapidly declining Ruan family and replace the original ecological niche of a century-old business family.

This sounds incredible and almost impossible... Daosheng is not a technology and Internet company that can quickly rise to become a giant in just a few years.

Zhou Liu spent a lot of effort on it, and indeed curbed the speed of Daosheng Group's continued expansion, but... there was a resistance that prevented her from getting involved in the core of the incident.

She suspected that there was a bigger hand stirring up the situation behind her.

At this time, the call came, which gave Zhou Liu some bad premonitions... because Zhuang Dao would not be so provocative before.

What looks like persuasion is actually showing off; there is also some kind of temptation and threat in it.

There is a psychological effect called Murphy's Law - if there is a possibility that things will go bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will happen.

She tapped her fingers on the desk and dialed a phone number, and soon there was a voice on the other end.

"Hey, Qingshan, are you here?"

In the office, Liu Xinghan closed his notes and said, "Okay, that's it for the record. I generally understand the situation..."

He touched his chin and looked at Bai Yu, and laughed.

"You have such a weird smile."

"Hehe, just to sigh, you know that you are not a thing in the pool. Although your talent is not very good, your courage is very good. I really don't know why you have a white talent with your fighting instinct that can challenge a mountain bear... Could it be Qi? What went wrong with the spiritual ceremony?" Liu Xinghan complained and then asked: "Is it almost extraordinary?"

"There's still a long way to go." Bai Yu shook his head. He really couldn't guarantee whether he would get the full guarantee this time.

"Work hard, don't be left too far behind by the little girl from the Su family." Liu Xinghan gave a thumbs up, as if he was clearly going to knock this pair of CPs.

After being tapped on the shoulder, Liu Xinghan sent Bai Yu to the waiting hall of Chang Yesi.

At this time, a long-haired young man with shackled hands came over and bumped shoulders with Bai Yu. The two sides bumped shoulders and then moved away.

At the same time as this power hit, Bai Yu almost instinctively turned on the heroic spirit projection, and at the same time, with a thought, he released the power to the bottom of his heels.

Boom... Chang Yesi made a sound on the ground. The cement floor seemed to be slightly dented. Fortunately, there were no floor tiles, otherwise it would have cracked at this time.

Bai Yu looked at the other person, and the other person also looked at him.

The young man wearing a black coat showed a little surprise and interest in his eyes.

Bai Yu frowned... As someone who had also killed someone, he could smell the smell of blood on the other person's body.

"Be honest!" the police officer behind scolded: "How shameless is it to bully a child?"

After being scolded, the young man suddenly showed an impatient expression and shouted: "Isn't it just speeding? I have paid the fine, and someone will come to take me out later."

The man was pushed away.

Bai Yu looked at the other person's back, and Liu Xinghan asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." He shook his head and looked away.

There seemed to be a flash of red light above the opponent's head just now, and the level was probably two digits.

You can only see the level clearly when the opponent shows the bleeding bar.

In addition to the numerical level, there seems to be an additional logo on the front.

But it dissipated too quickly and I couldn't see it clearly right away.

To take a step back, even if the health bar and red mark are really displayed, it is impossible to do it directly in Changye Division.

The hiccup passed quickly.

When Bai Yu came to the hall, Su Ruoli and Ruan Qingxue were both here. Hua Li was busy sending other irrelevant classmates back, so he left a step ahead after finishing the notes.

He had to take a long time to record the notes, and he also asked the doctor in Changye Division to do an injury assessment, which turned out to be a skin injury.

After getting this result, Su Ruoli gave up the idea of ​​asking him to go to the hospital for a full-body examination.

Bai Yu also received a series of life-threatening calls from Shang Ming'e, and was even taught a few words by Su's father for his rude behavior.

Speaking of Su Ruoli's father, Su Haoran... He is still out of town and will come back in a few days. He will hold a family meeting at that time. Although the old father is usually the holder of the family brotherhood, he is the head of the family after all. Lord, what you say about family education has some weight.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little headache. He had a lot of things on his side. He had to act as a hero of the night to slay demons, cultivate heroic spirits to strengthen himself, and help investigate the cause of Qin Xuezhao's death... and at the same time It was a bit difficult to take care of the Su family at the same time, and I had to start thinking about a wave of time management.

Also, Su Ruoli also had to live under the same roof, so now she had to be more careful about keeping secrets.

"Are you okay?" Bai Yu looked at Ruan Qingxue.

"It's okay." Ruan Qingxue responded: "I just fainted due to the drug, and now I'm awake...Thank you for saving me."

She bowed seriously: "If you hadn't risked your life to save me, I would have been..."

"As long as it's okay." Bai Yu changed the topic: "From now on, you owe me your life."

Ruan Qingxue straightened up, not understanding what the other party wanted to say, but still nodded: "Well, I owe you my life."

"You don't want to say that a great kindness cannot be repaid. This sounds too one-sided and too thin... It just so happens that I am not so generous and say that I saved your life just because I wanted to without asking for anything in return." Bai Yu raised a hat. He pointed his finger and said seriously: "Let's convert it into a favor."

Ruan Qingxue said without hesitation: "Okay, I owe a favor, but does this mean I have made some money?"

"Favors must be repaid." Bai Yu emphasized: "If you don't need it now, you may need it in the future. If I make a request, I hope you won't refuse."

"No." Ruan Qingxue shook her head and said seriously: "I will do my best. After all... this favor is worth my life."

Bai Yu stretched out his hand, and she also stretched out her hand, and they hit it off immediately.

With the crisp slapping sound, she also let go of the guilt and heaviness in her heart.

"Huh... I feel much more relaxed." Ruan Qingxue smiled at Bai Yu: "I didn't think you had such a high emotional intelligence before."

Bai Yu smiled back... After all, I have also been a social worker and led a team. Of course I know how to mediate interpersonal relationships and disperse mental pressure, so that we can contribute more residual value more conveniently.

A pair of envious little eyes suddenly appeared in the scene where they were looking at each other and smiling.

"That's great." Su Ruoli held her cheeks in her hands: "I also want to give everyone a high-five to celebrate~"

After satisfying Su Ruoli's little request, she calmed down.

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing gray and white clothes walked in the door, with a sweat towel hanging on his shoulders. He came in a dusty manner. After looking around for several times, he found this place and hurriedly came over.

This person's hair was already a little gray. He walked closer quickly and shouted: "Qingxue..."

Ruan Qingxue turned around, her eyes suddenly became very gentle and peaceful: "Brother, you are here."

"It's okay, it's okay." The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to stretch out his hand, but when he saw his black and dirty palm, he put it down again, wiped his pants, and smiled innocently at the person next to him. : "Um, you are Qingxue's classmates, right? I've heard A Liu say, thank you for your help, thank you for saving Qingxue, the two little classmates... I, I came here in a hurry, and I didn't bring you either. What a thank you gift, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I’ll make it up to you later!”

"You're welcome. We are all classmates and have gone through death together. It is natural to help each other." Su Ruoli held Qingxue's arm and said, "And Qingxue is a super good friend of mine."

Bai Yu stretched out his hand directly to the middle-aged man: "Bai Yu, courtesy name Yujing, hello."

The man whose actual age was just over thirty looked at his own hand, then at Bai Yu's raised right hand, and then stretched out his hand to hold it: "Hello, Ruan Qingshan, I am Qingxue's brother."

When shaking hands, you can feel the thick calluses in the other person's palms. The arms are very strong. It must be that they do a lot of heavy physical work.

A single handshake made Ruan Qingshan's sense of Bai Yu rise to a new level. He could feel a kind of respect from the other person, which also made him feel more grateful and appreciated. He sighed in his heart that he was such a handsome young man. .

"I'm not disturbing you, am I?"

"Sister Zhou." Ruan Qingxue called out.

The visitor was Zhou Liu. She was originally in a bad mood, but after seeing a few people here, she unconsciously smiled a little, and the gloom in her heart was dispelled a little.

"Let's end our business here today. We have been busy for half an afternoon. Do you want to go out for something to eat?" Zhou Liu suggested. She looked sideways at Ruan Qingshan. There happened to be something that was not convenient to discuss here. You have your own honour. It's not convenient for children to hear it.

After that, Bai Yu and Su Ruoli had a dessert and then left and went home. Su Ruoli started to roll up her sleeves and tidy up the living room. After working for several hours, she reorganized the living room. By the time they finished dinner, it was already 7 p.m. Half.

Su Ruoli went to the rooftop on the sixth floor to practice swordplay, while Bai Yu found a letter while packing his luggage. After reading it quietly, he said he was going out to eat.

It's eight o'clock sharp at night.

Zhou Liu sat on the street corner and waited on time. She glanced at her watch.

Today is the fifth day. If she still doesn't come on the seventh day, she won't wait any longer... In fact, she doesn't have much patience anymore.

However, just when she thought she couldn't wait any longer, there was a clear sound of footsteps, and the heels of leather shoes landed on the ground, the sound was clear and clear like tap dance steps.

The young man sat down directly in front of her, holding a civilized stick in his hand, raising his fingers and adjusting his collar, like a graceful gentleman.

"Ms. Zhou, I heard that you have something to do with me?"
