The two returned to the car, and Zhang Hui continued to drive towards the city's first hospital.

After driving onto a wider road, Zhang Hui left the steering wheel with both hands, touched a box of chewing gum from the armrest cup holder at hand, poured out a pill and ate it into his mouth, and handed the box to Li Rui. Li Rui was honestly unkind, and also poured out a grain to chew. Both of them were eating gum, and the smell of mint soon wafted through the carriage.

After rushing to the city's No. 1 Hospital, Li Rui saw that Zhang Hui also got out of the car with him, and asked suspiciously: "You don't want to go with me to meet my friend, right?" Zhang Hui said with a smile: "Of course not! If I go with you, how can I introduce my identity to your friend? No matter what, it doesn't make sense, right? It is easy for people to misunderstand the relationship between the two of us, which will affect your tall and complete image as a leader." For your own good, I'll be waiting for you at the entrance of the floor. Li Rui smiled, and secretly praised his cleverness in his heart.

The two walked into the inpatient building, and before taking the elevator, Li Rui called Yang Peng first and asked where the ward was, and then took Zhang Hui into the elevator hall. After coming out of the elevator, Zhang Hui said, "I'm waiting for you in the elevator hall, you can go." Li Rui said: "Okay, it won't be too long." After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Walking into the ward, Li Rui found that there were a total of two sick Simmons in the room, a middle-aged male policeman was sitting on Simmons outside, Yang Peng was lying on Simmons inside, and his daughter-in-law was sitting next to him.

Li Rui walked over and asked, "How is the wound recovering?"

As soon as Yang Peng's daughter-in-law heard someone talking, she looked sideways and saw that it was him, so she hurriedly got up and said, "Come up so soon, hurry up and sit down." Li Rui shook his head and said, "I won't sit down, I'll leave later." ”

Yang Peng's expression was gloomy, and he said lightly: "The recovery is okay." Li Rui said: "I've been busy for the past two days, and I haven't had time to come to see you." I didn't get off work on time today, and I came over after dinner. Catching a glimpse of his daughter-in-law looking at him with a sad face, he said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, it's okay, relax, ah." His daughter-in-law said: "It's all up to you to take care of this, otherwise, Yang Peng's life will be over." Li Rui waved his hand and said: "Sister-in-law, you are too polite, I have made friends with Yang Peng since childhood, and we are not worse than brothers, I can not care about this kind of thing." Yang Peng said: "You are usually so busy, you don't have to worry about me here." ”

Li Rui asked, "Is there a problem with the hospitalization fee or anything?" Yang Peng said: "No problem, the hospitalization treatment didn't cost a lot of money." Li Rui opened the briefcase, put the 10,000 yuan he had just taken into Yang Peng's hand on Simmons, and said, "I didn't buy anything when I came over, so I gave some money." It's not much, it's a little bit of my mind, you can buy whatever you want to eat, buy more nutrients, and nourish your qi and blood. Yang Peng's face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "What are you doing here? Li Rui held his hand and said, "Nonsense, I don't play this game with you." Replace you with Li Zhichao, do you think I will give me money?"

Yang Peng's daughter-in-law sighed: "Then you give too much, without you doing this, you can still live by yourself?" Li Rui smiled: "Of course you have to live." But now I eat and drink from the public, and my salary is not needed at all, and it is also depreciated in the bank, so it is better to use it for your emergency use. ”

Yang Peng said: "But we are not short of money. Li Rui said: "You don't talk nonsense, if you feel embarrassed, you will worry less about my daughter-in-law in the future." Yang Peng didn't understand what he meant at first, but after thinking about it, he understood, and smiled bitterly. Li Rui patted his hand and said, "Take care of it, I'll leave first." After saying that, he walked to Simmons, the policeman, who had already taken out two more boxes of cigarettes from his bag.

Yang Peng's daughter-in-law wanted to send him off, followed him, and sighed: "You said that you wouldn't sit down and leave when you came, alas, I'm causing you trouble." Li Rui said: "Sister-in-law, you are too outward." ”

As he spoke, he had already walked up to the policeman, handed over the cigarette in his hand, and said with a smile: "Comrade, you are also very troubled to take care of Yang Peng, smoke a cigarette to relieve fatigue." Hearing this, the policeman stood up, put the mobile phone in his hand on Simmons, looked at him twice, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't bother, you're welcome, I'm on a mission." Li Rui handed over the cigarette and said, "Yang Peng stabbed Heipi, his little brother is very likely to come to the door to retaliate, and I want to trouble you to bother to watch more." The policeman pushed back the cigarette in his hand and said, "This is what I should do, you don't have to be so polite." ”

The two fought in place, and finally the policeman reluctantly accepted his cigarette.

Although Li Rui no longer smokes, he is in the officialdom, and when he goes in and out of various occasions, it is indispensable for someone to give him cigarettes to smoke, and sometimes he has to give people cigarettes, so he has always kept two packs of cigarettes in his briefcase for backup. He is now the first secretary of the municipal party committee, and the grade of cigarettes he prepares is naturally very high-end. The police just saw that the cigarettes he sent were too high-end, so they didn't dare to accept them.

Yang Peng's daughter-in-law sent Li Rui out and watched him turn into the elevator hall, then returned to Yang Peng's side and asked in a low voice: "What does Li Rui mean just now that you should worry less about his daughter-in-law?" Yang Peng laughed and said: "You still don't know my mantra?" 'I'll wipe your daughter-in-law!' I always told him this, and he was joking with me just now. Yang Peng's daughter-in-law suddenly realized, was ashamed, pinched his arm, and said: "From now on, you give me a serious point, and it is not ashamed to say less such swearing!"

The policeman in the house asked at this time: "Yang Peng, who is your friend just now, he is really righteous, and he is really generous." Yang Peng said proudly: "He is my old classmate, and now he is the secretary of the municipal party committee." The policeman was taken aback and said, "He's Li Rui, right?" Ouch, I didn't even recognize him, and our Discipline Inspection Bureau even told me about him. Hey, he still gives me cigarettes, he really looks down on me. ”

Li Rui returned to the elevator hall to find Zhang Hui, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's okay, don't you want to sing, then I'll ask you to sing now, will you go?" Zhang Hui was overjoyed and said, "You didn't tease me, did you?" Li Rui said: "No, it's rare to be free today, I will also relax, and thank you......" Zhang Hui didn't wait for him to finish, took his arm and left, and said excitedly: "I know a good place to sing, everything is cheap, come with me!"

Half an hour later, Li Rui and Zhang Hui had already appeared in an above-ground KTV in the western suburbs of Shibei District. The location is a bit remote, so there are few customers, and the cabaret has to attract customers with discounts. Zhang Hui came here once, and was very impressed by the cost-effectiveness of both singing and drinking here, so she brought Li Rui here without thinking about it.

The two asked for a set of small bottles of Tsingtao beer, and some snacks, and sang in the dim and dark private room.

Sitting in the KTV private room again, Li Rui naturally remembered the last time he sang with Xu Xinyi, thinking that she took the initiative to dedicate herself but was rejected by herself, she was sorry and embarrassed, and listened to Zhang Hui sing several songs in a row, and was surprised to find that this girl sang with Liang Jingru's gentle and lingering, affectionate and meaningful taste, and was amazed and applauded her again and again.

Zhang Hui belongs to the type of "Maiba", once she grabs the microphone, she will never give it to others, and after being praised by Li Rui, she didn't say that she would let him sing two songs, but sang it more energetically, sang five songs in one breath, and drank with him after singing, which made her very excited.

Later, Li Rui was reluctant, and said with a smile: "No, no, you can't just sing, stinky girl, let me sing a song." He went to grab the microphone from her hand. In fact, there was another microphone on the coffee table, but he deliberately turned a blind eye, and his real intention was naturally to laugh and play with her.

Zhang Hui smiled and pushed his hand, sang while pushing, and said in a hurry: "If you want to sing yourself, don't bother me!" Li Rui was too lazy to order, leaning on the sofa with a big horn, posing a big word on his limbs, pushing back and forth with her arm, and said, "You go and give me something." Zhang Hui smiled and said: "Why?" Li Rui said: "I am your leader!" Zhang Hui smiled: "But now that I am off work, you have no right to order me." Li Rui said: "Okay, then I asked you to sing, is this reason okay?" Zhang Hui nodded and said: "Okay, I'll talk about it when I'm done singing, hehe." After saying that, he thought he was mischievous, so he deliberately sat out of the way to avoid him.

Li Rui took a sip of beer, moved his buttocks, chased after her, and grabbed the microphone in her hand, and said: "Sing me a ......" The two pulled again, and after a few pulls, Zhang Hui was suddenly pulled into his arms by him, and said with a smile: "I hate it, make trouble for me!"

Zhang Hui suddenly fell into Li Rui's arms, with a warm smile on her face. Li Rui hurriedly supported her with his right arm, so that she would not fall completely.

Zhang Hui stabilized her figure and glanced back at him, and said with a smile: "You are so annoying, why don't you rob me, don't you have a microphone?" With the flickering colorful light in the private room, Li Rui stared at her pretty face for a while, and suddenly became stupid. Zhang Hui saw him staring at him blankly, happy and ashamed, coughed, and said, "Okay, okay, here you go, you sing!" After speaking, he handed over the microphone. Li Rui shook his head and said, "If you like to sing, just keep singing, I won't sing." Zhang Hui snorted: "Then what are you robbing me of?" Li Rui smiled and did not speak.

Zhang Hui was so upset by his laughter that she didn't dare to look at him, sat up from his arms, and continued to sing, drinking with him between singing.

After playing like this for a while, three small bottles of beer were poured into his stomach, and Li Rui gradually became drunk.
