Chapter 659: Saving a life
If it were in any other office building, Lu Qiao really wouldn't be in a hurry, nor would she meddle in other people's business.
After all, this was Sister Lin's family affair.
Even though this was the workplace, even though Sister Lin hadn't expected her sister-in-law to actually come to the workplace because her younger brother wanted to divorce her.
In the office, it seemed she had already been crying and begging for a long time. Sister Lin's younger brother had followed after.
Sister Lin's sister-in-law refused to leave no matter what. Sister Lin could only persuade the two in the office, but Sister Lin's younger brother insisted on a divorce. Sister Lin was also full of anger, so naturally, the words she said weren't pleasant, talking and talking until it got to the frozen toe...
And then it was Sister Lin's sister-in-law opening the door and rushing out to jump off the building.
Northern buildings are different from the south. In winter, they use kraft paper or newspapers cut into strips, apply paste, and stick the window cracks, which is called "sliding window cracks" in the north.
It's not that easy to open such a window and jump down.
But this floor was renovated from an old building. The building faces south, but the left hand of the stairs is an open type, similar to a large terrace, with only a one-meter-high wall.
Now this office building has also been included in the relocation plan. By this time next year, they should be able to move into the new office building, and then this building should be preserved. After all, it also has a history of nearly a hundred years.
But there are no windows here now, so Sister Lin's sister-in-law opened the office door and rushed out, and she really could jump down directly. And if the Lin siblings reacted slowly, it might really cause a death.
All thoughts were just a blink of an eye. Sister Lin's sister-in-law, in grief and indignation, opened the office door and rushed straight towards the outside.
Sister Lin's face was pale, and her blood seemed to be frozen. Then, Sister Lin's younger brother reacted quickly, but he was still a step behind.
People can do anything under impulse.
Because at this time, her brain had stopped thinking. Sister Lin's sister-in-law was like this at this time.
She just came to find her sister-in-law to cry about her grievances. She didn't want to divorce her husband, that's all. After all, her sister-in-law also had status in the family. As long as she mediated, she and her husband wouldn't divorce.
Who could have thought that her husband would come, and the indifference and determination in his eyes stung her, and the cause, process, and consequence of the matter were all placed in front of the few people.
At this time, Sister Lin's sister-in-law really didn't want to live anymore.
So she rushed out without any hesitation, put her hands on the wall, and was about to jump down.
The next second, she only felt a faint fragrance coming from the side, and then she was hugged around the waist by a pair of seemingly very soft little hands. Before Sister Lin's sister-in-law could react, Lu Qiao hugged the person neatly and pushed Sister Lin's younger brother who rushed over, and then took Sister Lin's sister-in-law into Sister Lin's office.
The three members of the Lin family were all in a state of confusion.
Lu Qiao said to Sister Lin's younger brother who was standing at the door in a daze: "Close the door, come in quickly."
I don't know what Lin Chengze was thinking, but he really listened and walked in, and then closed the door of Sister Lin's office.
There were also people in the corridor holding folders, going upstairs or downstairs to handle affairs, coming and going in a hurry. Some people looked over here, but a figure flashed, as if they saw it clearly, and as if they didn't see it clearly, so they continued to be busy with their own affairs.
Sister Lin's face was pale, and her two hands were tightly clenched. At this time, she finally reacted, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back in an instant.
She didn't expect her sister-in-law Dong Yulian to be so impulsive, shouting those words, and she didn't react before the person rushed out.
Sister Lin's gaze fell on Lu Qiao again. No need to think, it must be Lu Qiao who pulled back her sister-in-law Dong Yulian who was about to jump off the building.
If there were no Lu Qiao, and Dong Yulian really jumped down from the outside, then let alone her mother not getting justice, even her job wouldn't be saved, and her younger brother and parents' family wouldn't have a good end.
Now the Dong family is extremely guilty, but if Dong Yulian really died here, it would be different immediately.
Sister Lin stepped forward and pressed Dong Yulian, her voice trembling: "You are really heartless. If you don't consider me, don't consider Chengze, don't you consider your two children? How can you be so impulsive? How can you do such a stupid thing?"
Dong Yulian was placed on the sofa by Lu Qiao. At this time, that impulse had faded, and what followed was remorse and lingering fear.
She lowered her head, tears falling drop by drop, her two hands on her knees, her whole body trembling, unable to say a word.
Lin Chengze's face was livid, standing at the door without moving.
Sister Lin sighed, grabbed Lu Qiao, and didn't ask what Lu Qiao thought, what she did, and what she was doing at the time...
After all, these can be seen by anyone with eyes. It must be that Lu Qiao came to her office to send samples, and then happened to see Dong Yulian about to jump off the building and saved her. To prevent being discovered by more people, she hurriedly took the person into the office.
If this were known by the leadership, Sister Lin felt that her old face would really have nowhere to put.
Sister Lin said sincerely: "Qiao, thank you so much, really thank you so much!"
Sister Lin, who had been doing women's work for many years and had always been eloquent and always had the upper hand in words, couldn't say anything else except this.
Lu Qiao hurriedly said: "Sister Lin, I just happened to catch up. You must not be too polite. By the way, I came to send you samples, but I put them on the windowsill at the stairwell. I will go get them now, and then we can talk about this in detail when we have time."
Sister Lin grabbed Lu Qiao and said to her younger brother who was still standing there with his head down: "Chengze, you go and move the box over."
I don't know why, Sister Lin felt very shocked herself. Why did she feel like she had something to rely on when she saw Lu Qiao?
She didn't want to avoid Lu Qiao either, because Sister Lin also knew Lu Qiao's ability to solve these things.
Originally, this was her own family affair, and it was impossible to make it to the neighborhood office, but since Comrade Xiao Lu saw it, she sincerely wanted Lu Qiao to help.
Because she didn't know what to do now either.
Even if she is still the Women's Federation chairwoman.
Now that things have turned out like this, supporting her younger brother's divorce, obviously, Dong Yulian doesn't want to divorce, and the Dong family doesn't agree to divorce. Looking at Dong Yulian's appearance just now, if it really caused a death, just like she thought just now, the nature of this matter would change, and she didn't want to make it to that point where it couldn't be cleaned up.
If she doesn't agree to divorce, as a daughter, she can't get over that hurdle in her heart.
I think her younger brother Chengze thinks so too.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be determined to divorce Dong Yulian. ===== CHAPTER 660 =====
