Strongest Worker

The footsteps sounded heavy and seemed to have endless thoughts.

Li Qingshi stopped and waited quietly for the other party to approach.

Not long after, the figure across the street was a young man of medium build with slightly long hair. The two looked at each other in the dark corridor, immediately staggered and passed silently.

At such a moment, Li Qing didn't pay much attention to the young man's face by the thin moonlight, but he noticed three bright accessories on the earlobe of his left ear. There were three metal pillars like iron bars, which made a slight sound as his feet moved.

Such a strange person appeared in such a strange place, which inevitably made Li Qing suspicious. However, with his thoughts on his mind at the moment, he naturally had no time to think about anything else. After missing the young man, he took another step towards the house reflected by a faint light at the end of the corridor.

He hurried to the door. Li Qing raised his hand and knocked on the empty door.

He waited at the door for a while. Without hearing any response, he pushed the door in.

This is a small room of only more than 20 square meters. A row of bookshelves are placed next to the wall in the right direction. It is empty. There are only a few small porcelain bottles and a few stones that look cheap. There was a desk in front of the small window, on which a small dim lamp was lit.

The wall directly opposite the door is a flower rack, and the flower pots are placed on it. The wide swivel chair, which was not commensurate with the whole room, turned its back to Li Qing. The owner of the chair seemed to be bending down and devoted himself to the half dead flowers and plants.

Li Qing coughed softly: "hello."

"Hello." the man turned his back to Li Qing and replied faintly.

The voice is very nice. Although she is a woman, she is different from the woman's usual soft voice and soft language. There is a trace of murderous spirit in her words.

Li Qing's eyes suddenly coagulated and suddenly felt that the voice was familiar to the extreme: "you..."

In the dim light, the swivel chair came around gently, revealing the woman's beautiful but heroic delicate face: "Li Qing, long time no see."

Li Qing wanted to break his head before that, and he would never expect to see Zhong Ruoxi again in Lingang.

"You... You..." Li Qing opened her mouth and stared round. She still couldn't say a word for a long time.

Zhong Ruoxi holds a small scissors for cutting flowers and plants in her jade hand. Her beautiful eyes blink and stare at Li Qing in front of her with a smile. When we meet again after a long separation, our eyes are opposite, and thousands of words are saved.

Li Qing couldn't help moving his steps. He approached Zhong Ruoxi step by step and said, "is it really you? Is it really you?"

He still couldn't believe what he saw in front of him. He stretched out his hand like a demon and touched Zhong Ruoxi's delicate and beautiful face that can be broken by blowing bombs. From the bridge of the nose, to the face, eyebrows, eyes, ears, and finally to the temples.

Zhong Ruoxi's small scissors clicked and glanced at Li Qing angrily: "are you finished?"

Li Qing quickly withdrew his hand and took a half step back: "why did you run back to Lingang?"

"Why? Aren't you welcome?"

"Of course you are welcome." Li Qing nodded repeatedly, "but I really don't understand. What are you doing back this time? Isn't it just for tourism?"

Zhong Ruoxi stared at Li Qing in front of him without blinking: "I will come back this time to take over Zhou Wenhao and perform my duties as director of the port supervision department."

Li Qing's face changed from dull to blankness, and finally into thick surprise: "ah?"

"What's the matter?"

Li Qing stepped back again: "are you transferred back again?"

"Yes, many big people have a headache about the mess of Lingang, so they have to let me come back." Zhong Ruoxi said with a smile, "why don't you feel happy at all?"

"Happy? I'm completely out of my mind now." Li Qing reached out and knocked on his forehead, looking almost collapsed. "What's going on? You're not playing a prank on me, are you?"

The new director of the port supervision office is Zhong Ruoxi? You're kidding!

Li Qing saw such nonsense for the first time in his life. He had just been transferred for half a year, but now he was dropped back. Is this playing monkey? What do these people at the top think?

"In fact, it's easy to understand." Zhong Ruoxi said faintly, "the situation near the port has been made a mess by Zhou Wenhao. Do you think there is a suitable candidate to take over this position besides me?"

On such a thought, Li Qing's heart was quite clear. Indeed, except Zhong Ruoxi, no one can hold the venue in Lingang today.

"But I still feel too sudden." Li Qing shook his head. "When did you come back?"

"This afternoon," replied Zhong Ruoxi, "I've just been here for less than two hours, so you see, there's a mess everywhere..."

"Haven't you eaten yet? If I had known in advance, I should have prepared a reception banquet for you."

"Fast food on the plane tastes good." Zhong Ruoxi put the small scissors in her hand on the flower rack, and the boots kicked gently on the ground. The swivel chair under her body ran to the small desk not far away. "Greetings are over, Li Qing. Let's talk about business."

"The last thing I want to talk to you now is business." Li Qing turned around and looked bitter. "What did you hear?"

"Well, there are many, but it seems that everything needs you. It can be proved that your activity has always been high because you can't digest too much food..."

Li Qing twitched slightly at the corners of her mouth and stared at Zhong Ruoxi without blinking, as if she wanted to see her through from inside to outside.

For Li Qing, he also said that the impact of Zhong Ruoxi's second return to Hong Kong is too great. Until now, he has not recovered from his shock.

However, as the shock gradually subsided, a trace of joy slowly penetrated into Li Qing's heart. The woman in front of me is her own amulet. If she was in Lingang, she would definitely dare to walk sideways like a crab.

Zhong Ruoxi flipped the materials in her hand, suddenly glanced at Li Qing and said, "what are you thinking?"

"Happy." Li Qing replied bluntly.

Zhong Ruoxi smiled: "now just react?"

"Ruoxi."

"Huh?"

"Can I hold you?"

Zhong Ruoxi was stunned and immediately smiled and nodded: "in order to meet the old friends who have been reunited for a long time?"

The voice fell, and Zhong Ruoxi had stood up from his chair. As she expected, it would be a polite hug between friends.

But Zhong Ruoxi never thought that Li Qing suddenly rushed forward like crazy, grabbed her legs in her eyes of amazement and hugged her horizontally. It turned out to be a real princess.

This is not over. Li Qing hugged Zhong Ruoxi and circled in the narrow room, laughing proudly. Zhong Ruoxi was so dizzy that she reluctantly put her down.

Zhong Ruoxi asked, "Li Qing, are you crazy?"

"Ruoxi, I'm so happy!" Li Qing stretched out her hand again while talking. Zhong Ruoxi quickly dodged away. She was really frightened just now. Now she doesn't want to be taken advantage of by Li Qing's salty pig hand.

"It's nice of you to come back." Li Qing took a deep breath and leaned gently against the wall.

"Li Qing, I will always represent the interests of the people near Hong Kong. It's not your Li family's interests. You should make it clear."

"I know." Li Qing nodded solemnly, "but I'm the people. It's not contradictory."

Zhong Ruoxi hesitated and decided to give up the topic. She tidied up her messy clothes and walked back to the small desk: "I know your conflict with Qi family has escalated recently."

Li Qing was dejected in an instant: "do you want me to stop? When you come back, I'll always give you face. If Qi Yiping can be honest, it's not impossible for me to stop..."

"You can toss about the affairs of the Qi and Li families at will. I don't care." Zhong Ruoxi said angrily. "You give me face? Really think you're a green onion?"

Li Qing groaned, "listen to your Yanjing accent. Hey, you don't recognize your father and fellow villagers after leaving home for half a year?"

"I..."

Li Qing patted his chest: "I know what you want to say, but I have one condition, don't I?"

Zhong Ruoxi stared at Li Qing, paused for a moment, and said stuffy, "but I have one condition..."

Li Qing looked very interested: "tell me."

"If you get what the Qi family wants, you should give it to me intact." Zhong Ruoxi suddenly solemnly said, "Li Qing, that's not what you should touch. It's only harmful and not good for you."

Li Qing's eyes showed deep doubts: "so... Do you want it too?"

Zhong Ruoxi pondered for a moment: "I don't want it, someone wants it."

Her words were unclear, and Li Qing couldn't hear them, but she didn't dare to delve into them.

"That's interesting." Li Qing suddenly said, "are you going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight? Do I have any guarantee?"

"I'm your guarantee." Zhong Ruoxi said with a smile, "you can do whatever you want. I'll provide shelter for you when necessary."

Li Qing asked seriously, "what is that? Why does Qi Yiping want to get it at any risk? Can't you tell me?"

Zhong Ruoxi didn't speak, just stared at him.

"Well, I won't ask, OK?" Li Qing raised his hands and made a surrender, then gently rubbed his chin with his hands, with a look of pondering. "So, aren't you very relaxed? As long as you watch behind the scenes, I'll fight and kill in front?"

Zhong Ruoxi sniffed gently and picked up a photo from the table: "do you really think you are the main course?"
