Chen Xueru took a few glances and found that they were all legal and compliant procedures. No wonder Officer Liu couldn’t find any problems.

But this was not enough to make Officer Liu change his expression, as the problem still lay with the certificate.

But didn’t he say he was from a steel mill? A cadre at a steel mill shouldn’t be so arrogant, right?

Chen Xueru muttered to herself, and said embarrassedly: “I’m sorry to trouble you. I originally said that no one who came to investigate would be involved in you, but I didn’t expect that I would still implicate you.”

Yang Chong waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. This won’t cause me any trouble.”

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the backyard, saying as he walked, “How is your son these days? Has he not had a relapse?”

Chapter 142 I know what to do

Chen Xueru followed quickly, saying as she walked: “Xiao Kui is much better now. He hasn’t had an attack since you treated him last time…”

As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the backyard. Yang Chong stopped and said, “Where’s the child? Take him out so I can see if the roots have been removed.”

Chen Xueru said awkwardly: “The weather is good today, so Aunt Wu took her out to play. She’s not at home.”

Not at home? Yang Chong turned his head and looked at Chen Xueru.

Somehow, the usually bold and daring Chen Xueru was a little flustered today. She didn’t dare to look Yang Chong in the eye: “How about I send someone out to find him…”

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something was wrong. When she looked up, Yang Chong, who was just a few steps away from her, was already in front of her.

Both eyes were fixed on her face.

She stared at him until her face turned red and her heart started beating wildly.

Chen Xueru was suddenly in a state of panic. Just when she was about to say something to ease her embarrassment, Yang Chong took another step forward, reached out, pinched her chin with his fingers, and gently lifted it up.

At this moment, Chen Xueru’s mind suddenly went blank, and she was like a puppet, allowing him to lift up her face.

The two faces got closer and closer, and she only heard Yang Chong say: “You are not a fickle woman, very good…”

After saying that, she felt her body suddenly lighten, and Yang Chong picked her up by the waist like a princess.

He strode towards the main hall in the north.

Up ahead, the cloth shop was still busy with business and a constant stream of customers.

The proprietress, who should have been busy in the front, was sweating profusely in the backyard.

Wu Ma came back with Xiao Kui from outside. When they passed by the store, they asked, “Where is Boss Xueru?”

The clerk replied: “In the backyard.”

“Oh.” Aunt Wu didn’t ask any more questions and took Xiao Kui into the backyard.

As soon as he entered the yard, Xiao Kui ran all the way to the door of the north room, shouting, “Mom, we’re back.”

I pushed the door but it didn’t open.

“Mom, open the door, I’m back!” Xiao Kui called twice at the door.

The movement in the room stopped abruptly. Yang Chong looked at Chen Xueru under him and said, “The child is back. Let’s do it next time.”

“Next time, next time? Keep going.” Chen Xueru’s “dream came true” with great difficulty, so she was not willing to let Yang Chong go so easily. She hung her hands around his neck and pulled his body up, then gave him a push, and the emancipated serf began to sing.

Outside the house, Xiao Kui called twice again. Wu Ma also came over. Seeing that the door was not opened, she tilted her ear suspiciously and listened for a while.

Then she stuck out her tongue and covered Xiao Kui’s mouth with her hand: “Xiao Kui, be good and don’t look for your mother. Let’s go to the side room to play.”

Xiao Kui struggled hard: “No, I want to find my mother, why won’t you open the door for me?”

Wu Ma was already carrying him downstairs, saying as she walked, “Be good, mom is working, be obedient and don’t disturb her.”

In the room, Yang Chong looked at Chen Xueru on his body and said, “Is it that serious? It’s not like there’s no future. We’re not afraid of the child making a fuss.”

“Why not? I’m afraid that you, my enemy, will leave this door today and never come back again.” Chen Xueru looked at him with a flushed face and said, “Let the child make a fuss for a while. Anyway, Aunt Wu is here. I have waited for you for so many days until today. I will not let you go if you don’t give everything to me today.”

Yang Chong sighed: “Women, you still don’t know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is.”

Next, Chen Xueru finally realized the immensity of the world.

I don’t know how long it took before everything calmed down.

“Damn you, are you made of a machine?” Chen Xueru said resentfully as she curled up in Yang Chong’s arms obediently like a docile kitten.

Yang Chong picked up the cigarette box from the bedside table. Chen Xueru immediately took it, took out a cigarette and put it in her mouth, then struck a match, lit it and took a puff, then took it out and put it in Yang Chong’s mouth.

“My dear, don’t you look down on me? You have pushed me away several times. What happened today?” Chen Xueru asked in a resentful yet curious tone.

Yang Chong took a few puffs of his cigarette before saying, “Because I didn’t know you at that time, but today I have some understanding of you.”

He was telling the truth. It was not that Chen Xueru was not pretty enough or charming enough, but that she was too proactive, which made him feel doubtful.

He didn’t want to get involved with a fickle bitch who would have sex with any man she saw.

That’s why I kept retreating.

But Chen Xueru’s attitude towards Fan Jinyou today changed his impression of her 180 degrees.

That’s why I want to get to know her better.

“You are really deep.” Chen Xueru felt happy, but she did not forget to make a sarcastic remark.

This guy is really perverted, he is very deep.

If she hadn’t lost all her strength, she would never have been willing to give up like this.

“By the way, what exactly do you do? Are you really just a purchaser for the steel mill?” Chen Xueru asked curiously, “Does the steel mill need to buy fabrics? How come you got so much fabric and clothes with formal procedures? And what kind of documents did you show to the people in the street? Why didn’t they dare to say anything after seeing it?”

Yang Chong did not answer. Instead, he took a few puffs of his cigarette before saying, “You are a smart person. You should know that there are some questions you should ask and some you shouldn’t ask.”

Chen Xueru pouted her lips: “Got it, I won’t ask again.”

“And one more thing.” Yang Chong added, “You have to understand one more thing. I will protect you and your daughter from now on, and I will come to accompany you every now and then, but I will not give up anything else. Do you understand what I mean?”

Chen Xueru’s beautiful dream was shattered in half. She was silent for a long time before she sighed: “I understand. I know what I should do.”

Yang Chong nodded: “Just know, I won’t treat you two unfairly.”

As he said that, he lifted the quilt and started to put on his clothes. Chen Xueru lay there feeling very reluctant to leave and wanted to hug him and ask him to stay.

But my whole body felt weak and I had no strength at all.

I could only watch him put on his clothes and walk out.

After a while, the door outside creaked open again. Chen Xueru was delighted: “Why are you back again?”

A short figure ran in: “Mom, I came back a long time ago. I have been playing in Grandma Wu’s room.”

It’s Xiaokui.

Chen Xueru smiled helplessly: “Really? Xiao Kui is so good. Mommy will get up and hold Xiao Kui now.”

Chapter 143 You are the first one in Boss Huizhen’s office

After Yang Chong came out of the cloth shop, he did not go home directly, but turned around and went to the tavern.

I wanted to go for a drink last time, but Chen Xueru interfered and I didn’t get to drink.

Since I was on my way today, I went in to have a couple of drinks and try some snacks at Xu Huizhen’s restaurant.

The tavern’s business is as good as ever, and it’s dinner time now. As soon as you enter, you will see that all the seats are full and many people are queuing.

When Yang Chong saw so many people, he was about to turn around and leave. A waiter saw him and hurriedly came forward to ask, “Chief Yang, you’re here?”

As he spoke, he turned his head and shouted towards the counter: “Boss Huizhen, Section Chief Yang is here.”

“Really?” The store was very noisy, but Xu Huizhen had sharp ears and heard it immediately. She quickly replied, “Hey, Chief Yang, you are a distinguished guest. Please come in.”

Yang Chong was a little confused and felt that Xu Huizhen’s reaction was a little bit strange.

In the past, when I came here, Xu Huizhen was enthusiastic, but she wouldn’t greet me in such a loud voice.

These words seem more like they were spoken to others.

He looked towards the counter curiously and saw a familiar figure.

Fan Jinyou was the street cadre who brought people to the cloth shop to cause trouble today and was slapped twice and kicked by himself.

At this moment, he was leaning in front of the counter, trying to chat with Xu Huizhen.

The swelling on the face hasn’t gone away yet, and the finger marks are clearly visible.

This guy, you really are everywhere. You come here again. Are you here to investigate the source of the meat in Xu Huizhen’s tavern?

Yang Chong walked over. At this moment, Fan Jinyou’s eyes were fixed on Xu Huizhen and he didn’t notice his arrival at all.

“Huizhen, the street has held a meeting and they said that your pub has been a public-private partnership for so long, but the street has never sent a public manager, so they plan to let me do it. From now on, we will be together every day, and you won’t have to work so hard.” Fan Jinyou said while eating melon seeds.

Xu Huizhen didn’t even look at him. She smiled at Yang Chong and said, “Chief Yang, why are you here today? Do you want to drink? There’s no seat outside. Why don’t you go to the backyard? It’s cold. I’ll heat you two pots of good wine.”

Fan Jinyou was a little angry. He had been flirting with Xu Huizhen for a long time, but this woman was always indifferent and didn’t even look at him. Now, a crappy guest came, with a smiling face, a backyard, and hot wine.

He said sarcastically, “No wonder your boss Huizhen doesn’t even take me, a street cadre, seriously. It turns out that you are clinging to someone powerful. I want to see how valuable you, a section chief, are…”

Before he could finish his words, he turned around and saw Yang Chong in front of him. His face froze and the rest of his words stopped abruptly.

His face looked so ugly.

Yang Chong snorted, “Why? Officer Fan is very busy at work. Is he here to inspect the tavern again?”

Fan Jinyou’s face almost turned red, but he dared not say anything. He just lowered his head and turned away.

Xu Hui was stunned. She looked at Fan Jinyou’s back in shock, then looked at Yang Chong: “What happened? Why did he leave when you came?”

Before Yang Chongxiao could say anything, someone spoke up next to him: “Hey, Boss Huizhen, you don’t know this, right? Today, this cadre Fan went to Boss Xueru to check the cloth, but not only did he fail to find out, but he was slapped twice by this gentleman. Didn’t you see that the finger marks on his face haven’t even left yet? How could he not leave after seeing this gentleman? Wouldn’t it be embarrassing not to leave? Haha…”

“Really?” Xu Huizhen’s eyes lit up: “Pianerye, how come you know everything?”

Pianerye laughed: “That’s right, I just happened to catch it. Not only did I see it, but many people here saw it. Nothing happened. Tell me, is it true?”

In the corner, an ugly middle-aged man turned his head and said, “Pian’er, you dare to say it, but I dare not say it. I can’t afford to offend cadre Fan.”

Is this Cai Quanwu? He is even uglier than in the TV series.

However, judging from the fact that he was standing in the corner drinking, he should not have gotten too close to Xu Huizhen at that time.

Yang Chong smiled and nodded to Pianerye.

Xu Huizhen was quite surprised. She had always disliked Fan Jinyou, but there was nothing she could do because he was a street cadre. Even if she disliked him, she didn’t dare to offend him.

I don’t know what happened today, but this guy came to the pub and kept chatting with me, and I couldn’t get him away.

When Yang Chong arrived, he left in disgrace without any need to be chased away.

“Chief Yang, you are so impressive today. You have helped us vent our anger.” Xu Huizhen said, “How about having a drink in the backyard? I’ll prepare two side dishes for you and heat up a pot of wine.”

Yang Chong looked around the store and shook his head. “Forget about the backyard. It’s boring to be alone. Forget about the lack of seats today. I’ll come back later when there are fewer people.”

When he said that, the movie star next to him spoke up: “No, man, if there is no seat, it’s easy to deal with. I’ll squeeze over here. Boss Huizhen, you can find a stool and put it here. There will be a seat, right?”

Yang Chong said, “I’m so sorry, doesn’t this affect your drinking?”

Pianerye said, “What’s the big deal? Are the men in our city so pretentious? Drinking is more fun when there are more people.”

Xu Huizhen had already taken out a stool from the counter: “Chief Yang, please don’t be polite. Pian’erye likes to be with a lot of people, so you can sit with him. By the way, I’ll treat you and Pian’erye to a drink today.”

Pianerye smiled and clasped his hands together: “Boss Huizhen is very generous. I want to thank you.”

Xu Huizhen smiled and took out two dishes of appetizers from the kitchen, one was shredded ear and the other was pork head meat. “This is all thanks to Section Chief Yang, otherwise my pub would have closed down a long time ago. You guys should try my appetizers.”

Pian’erye’s eyes lit up. Although he was a heavy drinker, his family conditions were not that good. Every day when he came to drink, he only ordered two taels of wine and never asked for any snacks.

It’s not that I don’t like to eat it, but I don’t have extra money to buy it.

I actually ate pig ears and pig heads today, and I smiled so hard that my eyes narrowed into slits.

“Come on, Pian’erye, have a drink.” Yang Chong raised the wine glass to Pian’erye, who quickly raised his glass with a smile, and the two clinked their glasses.

“Chief Yang, I am enjoying such delicious food today thanks to you.” Pian Ye said happily with a thumbs up: “To be honest, I drink at Boss Huizhen’s place all day long, and I am the first one to be treated like you!”

Then he frowned and muttered, “Officer Fan is also weird. He used to stick to Boss Xueru every day, but today he suffered a loss in front of you, so he stopped sticking to Boss Xueru and started sticking to Boss Huizhen instead.”
