Li Rui walked out of the hotel a few steps, and before he had time to take a taxi, his mobile phone rang, and when he came out to see, the caller was Zhang Wei, that is, the sister of Fang Qingyun, the magistrate of Shuanghe County, and the director of the county investment promotion office.

This woman is not simple, just a dinner, she successfully entered the heart of the boss Song Chaoyang, and then entered the room and became his wife. Of course, only a few people know about this matter, except for the two people involved, that is, he and Li Xiaoyue, the deputy general manager of the hotel, know it well. Even her aunt Fang Qingyun didn't dare to speculate about the relationship between her and Song Chaoyang at will. It's been a few months since that incident, and she doesn't seem to have contacted her boss again, so why did she suddenly call tonight?

Li Rui thought about this, and listened to the bell becoming more and more urgent, and did not dare to delay any longer, so he hurriedly answered, and then walked to the corner to the side, and took the initiative to say hello: "Sister Xiaowei, good evening." Zhang Wei giggled on the other side and said, "Xiao Rui, I said it just now, maybe you forgot about me a long time ago, I didn't expect you to have such a good memory." Tsk, no wonder you can be Secretary Song's secretary, it's really a good memory. Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "Sister Xiaowei, we are our own people, don't praise me, okay? How are you doing? I am also busy during the New Year, so I don't have time to call you for the New Year, and now I will give you a New Year's greeting." ”

Naturally, he said this just kind words, can he really call her to pay New Year's greetings? Not to mention that she has that kind of relationship with her boss, it is inconvenient for him to have one-line contact with her, even if he does not have that kind of relationship, he cannot get too close to her. Otherwise, what would you think if the boss found out?

Zhang Wei was flattered and said, "Ouch Xiaorui, why are you so polite with your sister?" I'm doing well for the New Year, and you're doing well, right?" Li Rui smiled: "It's not bad." After the two exchanged these few words, Zhang Wei turned to the topic: "I will go to the city tomorrow to do business, thinking that we haven't seen each other for a long time, and I miss you, so I plan to invite you to have a meal with Secretary Song, I don't know if you are free?" Li Rui was secretly funny, she said that she was "thinking about you", but in fact, she just "missed Song Chaoyang", and said that she invited herself to dinner with the boss, but in fact she wanted to meet the boss, this woman is so cute, and said: "When you come to the city, I must invite you to dinner, how can you let your sister break the bank?" But I can't do anything about it, I have to ask the secretary. If he's okay, then it's settled. Zhang Wei said: "Okay, then I'll wait for your news." ”

When Li Rui returned home, he unexpectedly found that Li Fucai, the second brother of the second uncle's family, was a guest at home, and his father Li Jianmin accompanied him to sit on the sofa in the living room, watching him smoke one after another, and the ashtray was almost full, full of cigarette farts.

He put down his briefcase, stood at the entrance of the living room, and greeted: "Second brother, why are you here?" After speaking, he looked back at the bedroom, saw that the door was closed, and didn't know what Qingman was doing inside, so he asked Li Jianmin: "Dad, where is Qingman?" Li Jianmin said: "She slept." ”

Li Fucai patted the position next to him and said, "Xiao Rui, come and sit, I'm here to find you this time." Although Li Rui didn't want to pay attention to him, and he didn't want to lose face at home, he had to sit down and persuade: "Smoke two less, no matter how much you smoke, you can't solve the problem." Besides, Qingman and I are planning to have children, so it's not good to make the house smoky. Li Fucai hummed and put out the unfinished cigarette in the ashtray.

Li Rui stared at him, and saw that he had completely recovered after a few days of hospitalization and recuperation, but his body had lost a lot of weight, his beard was unkempt, and he looked like a failed man, and asked tentatively: "You say, what are you looking for me?" Li Fucai said: "You hand over Xiao Na to me." Li Rui couldn't cry or laugh, his face sank, and said, "Second brother, don't say that, Xiao Na is not in my hands." She's a big living person, she can go wherever she likes, and it has nothing to do with me. Li Fucai said: "She is either in your hands, or she is hidden by you." My dad and they all said that you were the one who brought Cortana back to her hometown, and you were the one who took her away. Li Rui said: "That was all a year ago, and that time I sent Xiao Na to your health center and went back to Qingyang, she said to see her mother, and she didn't contact her anymore, where do I hide her? What am I hiding her for?"

Li Fucai looked at him hesitantly and said, "You really don't know where Xiao Na is?" Li Rui nodded and said, "You don't go and ask her mother, why are you here to ask me? Li Fucai said with a gloomy face: "She doesn't know if her mother wipes it." Li Rui thought to himself, even if Zhu Fengying has 10,000 more mistakes, it is also your wife, you scolded her in public for being "rubbed by a dog", just to get angry, but don't you think about your own face? Haven't you rubbed her? Then you are also a dog? Li Fucai saw that he was silent, and said: "I went to Qingyang Hotel to find her, and the general manager surnamed Dong said that he didn't know where she went, and said that she had already resigned. ”

Li Rui still didn't speak, applauding Li Xiaona's approach in his heart, for this kind of ruthless adoptive father and mother, there is really no need to tell them his whereabouts.

Li Fucai scolded: "What the hell is the dead girl, where did she go? Don't you plan to go home for the rest of your life?" Li Rui asked the doubts in his heart, and said: "Don't you recognize her, why do you want to look for her again?" Li Fucai said: "Why don't I look for her? I worked so hard for half my life to raise her, and I don't know how much money and effort I spent on her, but in the end she is not my own! Is it so cheap for her? I want her to pay back the debt, and she has to pay me back every penny of the money I spent on her since I was a child, not a penny less. Li Rui was furious when he heard this, got up and said, "Then you can find her." I'm tired from a day of work, so I won't talk to you more, you can go. ”

Li Fucai's buttocks didn't move, and asked, "Where do you think she can run?" Li Rui sneered: "You ask me and I ask who to go?" You don't know, where do I know where to go?" Li Fucai stood up, snorted, and said: "No matter where she goes, I have to get her back." If she doesn't pay off what she owes me in this life, I'll never finish with her for the rest of my life. Li Rui sighed: "Oh, I said second brother, why are you still so confused? If you want to go down with her like this, your family will still not be better. Can't you change the way to solve the problem?" Li Fucai asked in a daze: "What other way?"

Li Rui said: "Find Xiao Na, apologize to her, take her home as a daughter, and the family will live happily ever since." Li Fucai blew his beard and glared and scolded: "Why do I treat her as my daughter? Her grandmother's she and her mother have deceived me for more than 20 years, and now I Li Fucai has no sons and half daughters, and I have no funeral ...... when I die" Li Rui listened impatiently, waved his hand and said: "Come on, if you want to think so, just let me not say it." Let's go, we're going to sleep. ”

When Li Jianmin heard Li Rui drive Li Fucai away just now, he wanted to scold him, but he couldn't help it, and now seeing him talking to his cousin in this tone again, he felt that he had lost his tutor, and interjected: "Hey, Xiao Rui, how can you talk to your brother? How can there be a reason to go out to catch up with guests?" After speaking, he said: "Fucai, don't leave in a hurry, sit down for a while." ”

Li Fucai shook his head, took out his wallet, took out a 100-yuan ticket from it, put it on the coffee table, and said to Li Rui: "I just heard that you are married again, so the second brother will give a share of the money." There's not a lot of money, so don't be too little. Although Li Rui hated his way of doing things and his character, to a certain extent, he also pitied him and sympathized with him, seeing this, he hurriedly walked over and picked up the hundred yuan and stuffed it into his hand, and said: "Second brother, it's not easy for you to make some money, just don't come out, I have your heart." Li Fucai resolutely pressed the money on the coffee table and said, "No, no, who will let me be my brother." ”

After sending Li Fucai downstairs, Li Rui stopped him, took the large and small gift boxes he received three or four years ago from the garage, and put together a gift for him to take away.

Li Fucai's eyes lit up when he saw the BMW parked in the garage, and he shouted: "When did you buy this BMW? Li Rui shook his head and said, "I didn't buy it, I borrowed it from a friend." Li Fucai nodded again and again, and praised: "That's also promising, I don't have friends who drive BMWs." Li Rui didn't talk to him about this kind of idle talk, and said earnestly: "You listen to me, after finding Xiao Na in the future, apologize to her, and treat her as a daughter, then you will have a daughter." But if you are still as stubborn as you are now, then don't blame me for being ugly, your family will not be better. Li Fucai shook his head and said: "Other people's seeds are other people's seeds, and they are not close to our Li family in blood, how can they be raised as daughters? I have already let that dog-rubbing slut pick the ring, I want to conceive my own seed ...... while I am young."

After returning home, Li Rui complained to his father: "Why don't you talk about him when you see him smoking?" Qingman and I are still planning to have a child, if she smokes cigarettes, ......" Li Jianmin sighed: "How can I talk about him as an uncle? He doesn't drink water, and he won't let him smoke a cigarette?" Li Rui said: "Is this a cigarette? There must be two boxes of cigarettes, right?" Li Jianmin said: "It's a lot of cigarettes, alas, he's also annoying...... How could there be such a thing, you say?" Li Rui suddenly had a strange thought in his heart, did Li Fucai create any evil in his last life, otherwise how could he have suffered such a catastrophe in this life?
