Chapter 400: I have something to tell you
Lin Xiaoxi sat in the car without saying a word. When the car stopped steadily at the county town, I slowed down and asked her, "Are you going home?"
She tilted her head and looked at me, "Won't you invite me for a cup of tea?"
She shook the tea in her hand, looking straight ahead, "This Liu'an Guapian, if you don't know how to brew it, it's terrible."
I laughed, "Do you know how to brew it?"
She said seriously, "Of course I do. Brewing tea is like brewing people; you need patience, and you need to pay attention to temperature and heat. If the temperature is too high, it will lose its fragrance. If the temperature is too low, it won't open. The heat is the same; if the heat is too high, the tea is bitter. If the heat is too low, the tea is astringent."
She directly linked brewing tea with brewing people, leaving me at a loss for how to respond.
As the car passed the intersection, I saw Lao Mo's police car walking in front. I originally wanted to step on the accelerator, but through the car glass, I seemed to see a woman sitting in his car. So I slowed down again, following behind his car, walking slowly.
Remembering the time I left Lin Xiaoxi aside during the New Year, I said somewhat guiltily, "Little Xi, were you angry about the New Year?"
Lin Xiaoxi giggled, "Only a man like you would be willing to leave a woman aside."
I said seriously, "I didn't do it on purpose. You also saw it, my aunt likes you very much."
"Your aunt likes me?" she asked in surprise.
"Are you pretending?"
"I really don't know. However, your aunt likes me, what does it have to do with me?" Lin Xiaoxi looked at the tea box, her fingernails picking at the words on the box.
"Of course it has to do with you. Didn't you see, my cousin He Jiaxiao also has feelings for you," I said bluntly. Dealing with a girl as clever as her, there's no need to beat around the bush. She can see through your thoughts at a glance.
"But I don't have feelings for him," Lin Xiaoxi giggled, "Chen Feng, do you want to be a matchmaker?"
I laughed, "Not good?"
"What do you think? A big County Magistrate, worrying about these things, it makes people laugh," she threw the tea box to the front glass of the car, combed a strand of her hair, and rubbed it slowly.
"Everyone is human. Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, and has a life of fireworks," I said, "In this world, men and women, someone has to be the one to poke through that layer of window paper."
"No wonder you are a County Magistrate, you can talk about big principles. I won't talk to you about these anymore. Tell me, will you invite me for tea?" She impatiently combed her hair to the back of her head.
"I don't have a tea set," I excused myself. Actually, I was thinking, Chunshan County is only that big, if we appeared in one place at the same time, a lone man and a lone woman, it might cause countless gossip.
Not to mention, she is a news anchor for the County TV Station, and a beauty, how many people know her.
More importantly, her appearance at Qilin Villa tonight was definitely not accidental. Could it be that she has something to tell me?
"I have a tea set. I'll give you a set," she said readily.
"There's no place to drink," I was still looking for excuses.
"Go to your house," she didn't even look at me.
I hesitated, in such a night, bringing the County TV Station's beautiful anchor home, if someone saw it, tomorrow in Chunshan County, gossip would definitely be rampant.
"Don't dare?" Seeing I didn't express my position, she questioned me.
I honked the horn, hesitated, and said, "There's no one at home."
"If there were someone, I wouldn't go," she kicked my car, "Coward."
Men are most afraid of being provoked. I am no exception. Back then, Zhou Yu, such a wise and heroic person, was still provoked by Zhuge Liang to vomit blood and die.
"Let's go," I hardened my heart, stepped on the accelerator, and went straight to the County Government family building.
"I haven't taken the tea set yet," Lin Xiaoxi shouted loudly, "Without a tea set, what will we use to drink tea?"
"Can boil water, have tea cups, that's enough. Drinking tea is a mood, it doesn't matter about the ritual," I said, without any intention of going to her place to get the tea set.
Lin Xiaoxi giggled again, teasing me, "You have a ghost in your heart."
"What ghost could I have in my heart!" I parked the car downstairs, seeing Lao Mo's car was also there, and it was empty.
Suddenly I felt confident. Lao Mo is at home, why go to my house to drink tea?
Going upstairs to knock on Lao Mo's door, before I could knock, Lin Xiaoxi hugged my hand and asked suspiciously, "Don't you live across the door?"
I laughed, "How do you know?"
Lin Xiaoxi smiled lightly and said, "In the whole Chunshan County, there are not many people who don't know where County Magistrate Chen lives."
I was shocked, "So complicated?"
Lin Xiaoxi said seriously, "I'm talking about cadres."
I was relieved, still wanting to knock, but Lin Xiaoxi didn't let me reach out again, dragged me to her door, looked at me, and wanted me to take out the key to open the door.
Before the door was opened, Lao Mo's door opened first. Li Lian came out, looking at Lin Xiaoxi with a smile, and said in surprise, "So it's Beauty Lin."
Lin Xiaoxi didn't know Li Lian, smiled politely. By the time I opened the door, she slipped into the room like water.
Li Lian didn't care about Lin Xiaoxi's actions, turned back and shouted into the room, "Lao Mo, come over here."
Then I saw Lao Mo, shirtless, carrying a basin, kicking and stepping over.
Seeing me, he almost threw the basin in his hand.
"You're back," he called, a flash of joy in his eyes, "I was just looking for you."
I asked with a smile, "Lao Mo, what good thing are you looking for me for?"
Lao Mo said gratefully, "Brother..." As soon as the word came out, he immediately felt it was inappropriate, his face turned red, and he smiled awkwardly.
I said, "Lao Mo, it's okay. We are brothers."
Lao Mo hesitated and said, "It's different, it's different. You are a leader now, I can't call you randomly."
I comforted him, "It's okay."
Lao Mo calmed down his mentality and said nervously, "Our Bureau Chief looked for me."
"Good," I said, I knew what his Bureau Chief was looking for him for. Lao Mo is the person I want, how could their Bureau Chief not give him to me.
"And he wants me to select people," Lao Mo rubbed his hands excitedly, "I handled the case, I count as a real policeman."
I patted his shoulder and said, "Lao Mo, the road is long and the burden is heavy. Take it slow."
Li Lian on the side scolded unhappily, "Lao Mo, look at your lack of ambition, what are you nervous about."
Lao Mo scolded, "You woman, you don't know shit."
Seeing Li Lian about to flare up, I hurriedly stopped them and said, "Talk tomorrow, talk about things tomorrow."
Lao Mo didn't see Lin Xiaoxi, but Li Lian did. She kicked the basin by her feet and said, "That's right, talk about things tomorrow. Lao Mo, why don't you go wash your clothes clean."
She winked at me and made a face.
I understood what she meant, and I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Entering the room, I found Lin Xiaoxi curled up on the sofa, her pair of beautiful small legs crossed, the black silk stockings inside, under the light, were incomparably tempting.
"I'm boiling water," she told me.
On the coffee table in front, two tea cups had already been placed, the tea box was opened, and the Liu'an Guapian lay quietly in the box, waiting for us to brew it with boiling water.
"Who lives across the door?" she asked me, somewhat uneasy.
"An acquaintance," I said, looking at her nervous appearance, thinking in my heart, so you are afraid too!
"I'm a bit familiar," she said, putting down her legs and sitting up straight in front of me.
"Li Lian from the Women's Federation," I said, taking a few tea leaves and putting them into the tea cup.
She said "Oh," her eyes somewhat scattered.
"What are you worried about?" I started to ask mischievously.
"I'm not worried about anything," she covered herself up, seemingly unintentionally covering her calves with her skirt.
The water in the kitchen boiled, I got up to carry the water, Lin Xiaoxi followed me, stood behind me, and said, "Chen Feng, I have something to tell you." ===== CHAPTER 401 =====
