Chapter 545: Fairy Tales Are All Deceitful

"You suggest to me?"

Kuang Yusheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Wang Jingzhang, asked back, and then continued: "Is it your meaning, or did someone else require it?"

As a production cadre who had been in the Rolling Steel Mill for many years, Kuang Yusheng naturally had his own persistence and ability.

A Service Division Chief actually gave him suggestions.

Especially suggestions about who he should associate with, which had to make Kuang Yusheng feel disgusted.

"Hehe, look, you misunderstood, didn't you?"

Wang Jingzhang smiled and said: "I just said it with deep feeling. If you want to listen, listen; if you don't want to listen, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Kuang Yusheng's eyelids drooped, and he didn't continue this topic.

Wang Jingzhang's service reform was in full swing, naturally gaining the attention of the leaders. Kuang Yusheng wasn't envious, but he wasn't jealous either.

As long as he continued to work in the position of Production Management Division Chief, a Deputy Factory Director was a sure thing.

This was the unspoken rule of the Rolling Steel Mill for many years. After all, this was a factory, and it still needed professional Deputy Factory Directors.

If the first largest division of the Rolling Steel Mill couldn't be promoted, there would really be a problem.

Kuang Yusheng had his own persistence; he didn't want to offend Li Xuewu, and even less did he want to offend Wang Jingzhang because of Li Xuewu.

This was a completely unnecessary decision, although Li Xuewu had been pulling him.

Li Xuewu's several active contacts with Kuang Yusheng and Xia Zhongquan could be seen, but to put it bluntly, they were all cadres of the Rolling Steel Mill, and the arguments above only affected some virtual things.

Seeing clearly what he could get and what he wanted, he naturally wasn't afraid of others framing him.

Li Xuewu didn't play for nothing either. At least when he met Nie Nie Chenglin's car after work, Deputy Factory Director Nie turned his head away in great dissatisfaction and ignored him.

Li Xuewu naturally discovered Nie Nie Chenglin's actions in the car, smiled at Sha Qizhi, who was looking over, and didn't care much.

Nie Nie Chenglin was just what Kuang Yusheng would look like in the future; the two had the same temper and the same thinking mode.

The nature of the position naturally required standing on the Factory Director's side; Li Xuewu naturally knew this.

But there was a saying: as long as the hoe is danced well, there is no wall that cannot be dug down.

Even if it couldn't be dug down, Li Xuewu had to kick it a few times.

"Has the business trip report been submitted?"

"Yes."

Hearing Li Xuewu ask, Sha Qizhi nodded and said: "According to your requirements, I submitted it to the factory office before work ended."

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu nodded, looked out the window and said: "This time it's mainly as a branch identity, so you and Jiankun don't have to go."

"Li Kezhang."

Sha Qizhi turned his head to look at Han Jiankun, then suggested to Li Xuewu: "I don't have to go, but let Jiankun go with you, so there can be someone to look after you."

Li Xuewu turned his head back to look at Sha Qizhi, waiting for him to continue.

Sha Qizhi also fully exercised his responsibility as a secretary, and his attitude was very clear: "There are times when you are not suitable to appear in the front line now."

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu looked out the window again, then said: "Then Jiankun, go back and pack up tonight, and go to Steel City with me tomorrow."

"Yes."

Li Xuewu didn't eat at home that night, but went to the Haiyuncang.

It wasn't that he was married and his courage had grown, nor that his mother had given permission, but that he had to do his monthly psychotherapy before leaving.

Li Xuewu hadn't stopped his treatment since Zhou Wang Yamei arrived in the capital; it could both relax his mind and relieve fatigue.

It had been half a month since Fu Haibin's case ended, and he was going to Steel City for almost a week. Li Xuewu chose the time very appropriately.

Perhaps it was really because they had received their certificate, Gu Ning's attitude toward him had changed a lot.

From the atmosphere of getting along and the attitude of speaking, one could see that Gu Ning was also trying to accept the environment with Li Xuewu.

"How long are you going for?"

"Not quite sure."

Li Xuewu shook his head. After the meal, he and Gu Ning were pushed out of the kitchen by Zhou Wang Yamei, and the two drank tea at the coffee table.

Fu Zhidong was leaning against Li Xuewu, holding a picture book of "Grimm's Fairy Tales" published by the Shanghai Juvenile and Children's Publishing House in 1959, reading with great interest.

"But it shouldn't be more than a week."

Li Xuewu put down the teacup in his hand and, like Fu Zhidong, leaned against the back of the sofa.

Fu Zhidong turned his head to look at his godfather, smiled with his little mouth, and asked: "Uncle, are you going on a business trip?"

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu responded with a smile and asked: "What's wrong? Going with me?"

"I'm not going, I still have to go to school."

Fu Zhidong had gradually become lively like a child of the same age during his time in the capital. Perhaps because of going to school, he didn't look as lonely as when Li Xuewu first met him.

"Hehe, can't bear to part with the female classmates in class?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows to tease his godson, but Fu Zhidong nodded very seriously and said: "Yanni said that on Sunday her parents will take her to the zoo, and Mom will take me too."

"Is that so?"

Looking at his godson who didn't understand his meaning at all, while Gu Ning was glaring at himself, Li Xuewu had to laugh dryly and follow the child's words.

Fu Zhidong looked very excited, his little mouth babbling to Li Xuewu about the animal world in Yanni's mouth.

Especially Li Xuewu's occasional responses made him feel that Li Xuewu was very interested, and he flipped through the illustrations in the fairy tale book to show Li Xuewu what kind of animal he was talking about.

Gu Ning didn't like to talk, and Li Xuewu sitting here was also bored, so it was better to tease the child.

"Uncle."

Just after Li Xuewu responded, Fu Zhidong asked with wide eyes: "Uncle, do you like animals?"

"Hmm..."

Li Xuewu hesitated, nodded, and said: "How should I put it? I especially like them."

"Wow!"

Fu Zhidong clapped his little hands, feeling very excited to have the same hobby as his uncle, just like the many elements such as adults, children, and nature in the fairy tale book that made up the fairy tale world.

But he had been talking for a long time, and he didn't see his uncle say anything, so he asked: "Uncle, do you also like to go to the zoo?"

The child's idea was very simple: since you also like it, Uncle, can you take me there in the future?

Li Xuewu naturally understood Fu Zhidong's meaning, but he wouldn't follow his godson's words.

I'm also a godfather for the first time, why should I follow you~

"Uncle likes animals very purely."

Li Xuewu looked at his godson's innocent eyes, with a gentle smile on his face, but said meaningfully: "Uncle doesn't like the little animals in the zoo; Uncle likes them cooked and placed on the dining table."

"..."

Fu Zhidong stared with wide eyes at his uncle, then looked down at the picture book in his hand, feeling that his inner world seemed to be shattered.

Sure enough, fairy tales are all deceitful.

"Go, you're fooling my son again."

At this moment, Zhou Wang Yamei came out of the dining room, wiping her hands, and said to Li Xuewu with pursed lips.

Apparently, Zhou Wang Yamei had also heard Li Xuewu's conversation with Fu Zhidong just now. At this moment, she walked to her son whose worldview was about to shatter and touched his little face.

"Uncle is teasing you; Uncle is the worst."

"Mom."

Fu Zhidong looked up at his mother and asked with innocent wide eyes: "Are the animals in the zoo delicious?"

"..."

This time it was Zhou Wang Yamei's turn to be speechless. Looking at the bad-smiling Li Xuewu, she was so angry that her teeth itched.

Gu Ning couldn't help but smile with pursed lips, but she still walked over, took the picture book from Fu Zhidong's hand, and coaxed: "Let's go, go upstairs with Auntie to read."

Fu Zhidong's biggest advantage was that he was obedient. Although he was also naughty like a little boy, he was obedient as long as adults said so.

At this moment, being held by his aunt's little hand, he had no choice but to look at his mother suspiciously and follow his aunt upstairs.

Gu Ning knew what Li Xuewu was here for, so she took the initiative to take over the work of coaxing the child to free up time for Zhou Wang Yamei.

Zhou Wang Yamei rolled her eyes at Li Xuewu and said: "You just be bad; it's a pity the child still misses you."

Li Xuewu laughed while lying on the sofa: "I didn't say anything."

Zhou Wang Yamei didn't care about Li Xuewu's sophistry, but couldn't help but pinch him when she covered him with a blanket.

Seeing Li Xuewu's grinning appearance, she couldn't help but laugh, and hit Li Xuewu lightly with the folder in her hand.

"Did it on purpose, right?"

"Hehe, it really hurts."

Li Xuewu's acting skills were too exaggerated, but his mouth skills were excellent.

However, Zhou Wang Yamei didn't believe it, because Li Xuewu was best at talking nonsense with a straight face; she had been fooled many times.

"Let's start by talking about your work and life recently."

Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Zhou Wang Yamei and asked: "Don't you already know about my work and life?"

Zhou Wang Yamei sat in the back, and Li Xuewu couldn't see Zhou Wang Yamei when he was lying down normally.

At this moment, the lights in the room were extinguished, and only two wall lamps were still on, providing limited lighting but setting off the atmosphere of the living room at this time.

"Slap~"

Zhou Wang Yamei hit Li Xuewu with the folder again, rolled her eyes and said: "I'm telling you to say it; what does it have to do with whether I know it or not?"

Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Wang Yamei suspiciously, and seeing her staring insistently, he turned his head and lay down properly.

"Hmm... let's start with the two girls I met by chance."

Zhou Wang Yamei: "..."

She knew that Li Xuewu had a way with women in the capital; one could tell from Li Xuewu's personality traits.

Then there were the ex-girlfriends Li Xuewu had "confessed" to her before; she didn't expect Li Xuewu to have a new situation after a spring outing.

Li Xuewu's narrative was very long, very scattered, thinking of where to say, hitting east and west.

In itself, this hypnotic conversation was to slow down thinking and relax nerves, so Zhou Wang Yamei was guiding while recording in her notebook.

Li Xuewu fell asleep when he was talking about going back to Steel City, and his snoring was very loud, so loud that even Gu Ning on the second floor could hear it.

But being able to hear Li Xuewu's snoring downstairs was also because the bedroom door was open.

As for why the door was open, Gu Ning didn't think carefully, nor did she notice this change in herself, only knowing that she didn't want to close the door at that time.

Now hearing Li Xuewu's snoring, she walked to the stairs and looked down as if possessed.

In the dim living room, a figure was lying on the sofa, snoring. Gu Ning knew that was Li Xuewu.

The person sitting by the sofa must be Zhou Wang Yamei.

At this moment, Zhou Wang Yamei was looking at the sleeping Li Xuewu, like a conscientious doctor.

Gu Ning watched for a while and then turned back to the bedroom. Fu Zhidong's attention was still on the book, and his aunt only took a look when she entered the room.

"Is Uncle snoring?"

The little child already understood a lot, heard the sound and asked, his eyes still not leaving the book.

"Hmm."

Gu Ning sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Fu Zhidong and asked: "Is it very noisy?"

Although she asked this, Gu Ning didn't ask if she should close the door.

Fu Zhidong shook his head and said: "Anyway, I'm not sleeping now."

Gu Ning smiled at the stubborn child. Every night Fu Zhidong had to perform a grinding skill, just to stay up a little later.

Because he wanted to read more storybooks at night, and sometimes when he was fascinated, he had to persist for a while longer.

Zhou Wang Yamei was worried about her son's health, so she naturally managed him strictly. Sometimes mother and son had to struggle for a while at night.

Fu Zhidong didn't need Gu Ning to coax him; he held the book and read it, while Gu Ning read her own, and the time the two spent reading passed very quickly.

I don't know when the snoring downstairs had stopped, intermittent, and voices could be heard again.

"How long did I sleep?"

"Two hours."

Zhou Wang Yamei handed the warm tea to Li Xuewu and said: "Very tired recently?"

"A little."

Li Xuewu took a sip and lay back down.

Just woken up, he really lingered on this feeling. After the dryness of his throat was relieved, he narrowed his eyes again.

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at the folder in her hand and said softly: "Is going to Steel City for that case?"

"Hmm, both."

Li Xuewu responded, explaining in a very lazy voice: "Also need to check the security construction of the Steel Mill."

Zhou Wang Yamei tapped the pencil in her hand and asked: "So, can we go home after you come back?"

"Hmm?"

Li Xuewu opened his eyes and glanced at Zhou Wang Yamei, then returned to his posture and asked: "Had enough?"

"Although Liangyuan is good, it is not my hometown."

Zhou Wang Yamei said in a low voice, then looked up at Li Xuewu and said: "And you and Xiao Ning are getting married soon, so it's not convenient for me and Zhidong to live here anymore."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and looked at the dim living room, saying: "I'm not sure if I can solve everything this time."

After finishing, he added: "Also, Zhidong is already going to school here. Didn't you plan to settle down here?"

"How to settle?"

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at Li Xuewu and said: "My and Zhidong's household registration are both in Steel City. You wouldn't help transfer household registration just for a psychologist, would you?"

Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Wang Yamei again and said: "That depends on you. If you want to stay in the capital, I'll think of a way."

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at Li Xuewu, paused for a while, and still shook her head.

Although Li Xuewu couldn't see it, she knew Li Xuewu could feel it.

She had thought about this question repeatedly in her heart many times: if Li Xuewu invited her to stay, what should she do?

Being here could get Li Xuewu's care, give her child more opportunities, and make her and her child's life better.

But she thought for a long time and still chose to go home; there were her roots there, and even more, the child's roots.

"If, this problem isn't solved."

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "How do you plan to arrange me and Zhidong?"

Li Xuewu put his hands behind his head, narrowed his eyes and said: "Just live here; it's not like there's no room."

"You know what I mean."

Zhou Wang Yamei repeated helplessly; Li Xuewu must know what she meant.

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu thought for a while and said: "Just live here, help us do housework, take care of the child."

"Am I a nanny?"

Zhou Wang Yamei hit Li Xuewu with the folder and said helplessly: "I have never seen a doctor who has to work as a part-time nanny."

"Isn't this what you're seeing now?"

Li Xuewu sat up with a smile, took another sip of tea, and didn't care about Zhou Wang Yamei's rolling eyes.

"If you don't want to stay in the capital, then moving back and forth makes no sense."

Zhou Wang Yamei heard Li Xuewu say this and knew he was right, but thinking that the second floor was to be Li Xuewu and Gu Ning's bridal chamber, she still said: "Then I and the child will move to the first floor; the room on the first floor has everything."

"Hehe, why bother?"

Li Xuewu waved his hand with a smile and refused Zhou Wang Yamei's opinion indifferently.

Since people were left, did he still care about her and the child?

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at Li Xuewu's gaze and asked: "I want to advise you, it might be a bit offensive, you can choose to listen or not."

"About women?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, then leaned on the sofa, looking at Zhou Wang Yamei with deep eyes.

Zhou Wang Yamei also looked at Li Xuewu; she had always thought Li Xuewu was a smart person, so she wasn't surprised that he could guess her meaning.

Looking at Li Xuewu's gaze at this moment, she was in a dilemma.

Should she say it or not?

But now she couldn't not say it, because the topic was opened and couldn't be stopped.

"Yes."

Zhou Wang Yamei considered it and said: "It's not just because of the fact that you are already married, but also your career and life."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and blinked at Zhou Wang Yamei to signal her to continue.

Zhou Wang Yamei also rubbed her eyebrows helplessly and said: "I don't know why, I just want to advise you, don't take the wrong path; associations without an emotional foundation all carry conditions."

Looking at Li Xuewu's gaze on her, Zhou Wang Yamei raised her hands to surrender and said: "Okay, I won't say it."

"Hehe."

Li Xuewu glanced at the second floor, then said to Zhou Wang Yamei: "Actually, you are right. With the change of some things, my social relationships should also change."

Zhou Wang Yamei looked at Li Xuewu in surprise. In her cognition, such a strong person as Li Xuewu wouldn't allow others to question him.

Li Xuewu didn't care about the surprise in Zhou Wang Yamei's eyes and said with a smile: "I'm not a tyrant. Your advice is very timely; at least I won't doubt my charm."

Zhou Wang Yamei covered her face speechlessly, lay back on the sofa in resignation, only feeling that she had lost all face.

Li Xuewu stood up with a smile and said while walking upstairs: "Thanks for your advice."

"Go to hell! ~~~"

"Hehehe."

Ignoring the anger in the living room, Li Xuewu went upstairs. Although he didn't hear the footsteps of someone sneaking away, Li Xuewu was certain that Gu Ning must have heard his voice.

"Still not sleeping?"

Standing at the door of the guest bedroom and looking at the big and small ones in the room, Li Xuewu's voice was rich in magnetism and warmth.

Gu Ning and Fu Zhidong, who was leaning against the head of the bed in the same posture, both raised their heads.

"Uncle~"

Fu Zhidong showed a big smile, crawled out of the quilt, walked to the end of the bed and stood there, saying to Li Xuewu: "I heard your snoring."

"Is that so~"

Li Xuewu smiled and poked his godson's little belly lightly, asking: "Is it loud?"

"Loud! Like a tiger's sound."

Fu Zhidong imitated the tiger in the picture book, made a fierce look at Li Xuewu, and then giggled again.

Seeing Li Xuewu enter the room, Gu Ning also closed the book in her hand and stood up.

"Finished?"

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu teased Fu Zhidong a few times, then pointed at his watch and asked his godson: "It's 9:30, what time is it?"

"Time to sleep."

Fu Zhidong dared to negotiate with his mother, but he didn't dare to negotiate with his godfather.

Although Li Xuewu didn't live here, he just didn't dare to disobey Li Xuewu.

At this moment, he didn't need anyone to coax him; he organized the picture book and put it on the head of the bed, then crawled into the quilt and said goodbye to Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu closed the door and returned to the master bedroom with Gu Ning.

The master bedroom here occupied more than half of the space on the second floor, including a study, a small living room, a cloakroom, a bedroom, and a bathroom.

It had to be said that the previous owner knew how to enjoy himself. As long as he was on the second floor, he could do everything in his pajamas without worrying about the risk of politeness.

"Aren't you going back yet?"

Clearly knowing that Li Xuewu followed her into the room, she waited until they reached the study to turn around and say this.

Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning, who was playing tricks on him, and asked with a smile: "I'm taking the train tomorrow afternoon; don't you have anything to say to me?"

Gu Ning turned around and put the book in her hand into the bookshelf. Perhaps she was struggling internally, her hands were shaking nervously, and there were too many books on the bookshelf, so she didn't put it back well after trying several times.

At this moment, a shadow suddenly shrouded behind her, surrounding her completely.

Li Xuewu stood behind Gu Ning, his left hand wrapped around Gu Ning to push aside the books on the shelf, and his right hand wrapped around the other side of Gu Ning, holding Gu Ning's hand that was holding the book.

Gu Ning only felt that she was surrounded, especially her right hand, which was held by a pair of big hands.

At this moment, her right hand couldn't help but shake, but it was held by the big hand of this bad guy behind her.

Gu Ning watched the book being put into the bookshelf bit by bit, and unknowingly, her nostrils flared and accelerated.

It seemed that the person behind her had cut off the air, and she was suppressed and couldn't breathe.

After putting the book away, Li Xuewu didn't let go of his right hand, and his left hand supported the bookshelf directly.

"You..."

Gu Ning turned around suddenly, but was surrounded by Li Xuewu on the bookshelf, so she couldn't help but lean back.

But the only way back was the bookshelf, and she tried hard to lean back, but the person in front also leaned in.

Her right hand was grabbed by the person in front of her, one side was the desk, and the other side was this person's arm...

What was even more severe was... he was coming over...

Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning's eyes, his body leaned closer and closer, and his head gradually lowered.

Gu Ning seemed like a kitten forced into a corner. At this moment, her body was shaking with tension, and her eyes couldn't help but close.

She knew what Li Xuewu was going to do, she knew this bad guy was going to be bad, but she didn't know how to refuse.

Looking at Gu Ning, who was tense into a ball, the corners of Li Xuewu's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and then he leaned his head over and printed lightly on Gu Ning's forehead.

"Leaving."

Gu Ning only felt her forehead being kissed, and then heard this sentence, and her hand was about to be released.

I don't know the reason, but Gu Ning squeezed the big hand that was about to leave hard.

When she hurriedly opened her eyes to say something, it was a face blooming with a bad smile under the dim lights.

The morning sun shone on Li Xuewu's face... and his butt...

He forgot to close the curtains last night, and the change in the angle of the train's movement made the sunlight naughty.

Because there were only three section-level cadres on this train, Li Xuewu slept in a soft sleeper.

He drank for more than two hours with the Deputy Li Kezhang of the Discipline Inspection Section who was going to the Steel Mill on the opposite side last night, so Li Xuewu got a lower berth.

The one who couldn't drink climbed onto the berth early to sleep, so being able to drink had its benefits.

Reaching out to scratch his chin, Li Xuewu narrowed one eye and looked out the window, knowing it was getting late, and touched the watch under his pillow.

"Hoo~"

Letting out a breath, Li Xuewu propped himself up on the bed, looked at himself with only underwear left, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

At this time, people sitting on the train were just making do for the night. Even if there was a sleeper, they had to be relatively conservative in dressing.

Not to mention pajamas, there should at least be big shorts.

Li Xuewu didn't think about those things at all; perhaps Yu Li had prepared them, but he couldn't remember changing them.

Looking at the empty berths opposite and above, Li Xuewu knew he was the last one to get up.

Indeed, by the time he was dressed and ready to go out, the brothers on the opposite and upper berths had already finished eating and returned.

"Hey, there are steamed buns and soy milk on the train."

The Deputy Li Kezhang of the Discipline Inspection Section, who drank with Li Xuewu all night, didn't look hungover at all, gestured outside to Li Xuewu and said: "Their small pickles here are not bad; you can go and taste them."

"Got it~"

Li Xuewu smiled, took his wash bag, and went out by squeezing past.

Because it was an additional carriage, everyone on this train was their own people from the Rolling Steel Mill or the Steel Mill.

Two soft sleepers, four hard sleepers, and the rest were all hard seats.

It could be used for commuting usually, or as a carriage for leaders to travel.

There was no particularly luxurious decoration, but the Rolling Steel Mill wasn't poor, so the basic food was still good.

This was reflected in the meals on the commuter train. When it was Li Xuewu's turn to eat, he really found that the small pickles on the train were not bad.

Asking the train attendant, it turned out they were made locally in Steel City.

Han Jiankun woke up early; he was sitting opposite Li Xuewu at this moment, and he hadn't eaten either, waiting for Li Xuewu.

"How many business trips have you been on since you started working?"

"None."

Hearing the Li Kezhang ask, Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu and shook his head.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked: "Not even once?"

"No."

Han Jiankun's answer was always very concise; he would never waste a word.

Li Xuewu nodded, took a sip of soy milk, and looked out the train window.

The train attendant just said that Steel City was about to arrive, and Li Xuewu got up by timing it.

"This place is very evil."

Li Xuewu curled his lips and scared Han Jiankun: "I folded a comrade here, planted a driver, and was forced by someone with a gun."

Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu and didn't speak, but his eyes fully expressed doubt.

He wasn't a child either; he had been with Li Xuewu for almost three months, so how could he not know what kind of person his leader was?

Say he's young, but he's very mature in handling affairs; say he's experienced, but sometimes he's very naughty.

"Don't believe it?"

Li Xuewu tilted his mouth, hummed twice at Han Jiankun, and then said: "Do you know why Yan Jiecheng was transferred to the training ground?"

Han Jiankun widened his eyes, and although he didn't say anything, his expression asked it.

Li Xuewu nodded helplessly and continued to eat his breakfast with his head down.

Han Jiankun looked at Li Xuewu for a while, his hand reached to his waist, and quietly turned off the safety.

The thing on his waist wasn't a block of wood, and he, Han Jiankun, wasn't Yan Jiecheng. If something really happened, he would just compare marksmanship.

Li Xuewu also saw Han Jiankun's small movements but didn't stop him.

Telling Han Jiankun these things was to make him nervous; this wasn't for tourism, it was for killing people.

Although he was a Deputy Li Kezhang now, he didn't need to go to the front line to play with people in the bathhouse with guns.

But his purpose in coming here was to settle those people. Even a rabbit bites when it's anxious, so would they just surrender and let him catch them?

So it was all a life-and-death struggle, and his appearance represented a signal of killing.

Sometimes killing doesn't need a knife or a gun; taking away their lifelong greedy savings is also a kind of harm.

"Steel City is arriving, get ready to enter the station, pack up and get ready to get off the train."

The train attendant was from Steel City, with a mouth full of dialect, shouted at one end of the carriage, and the whole carriage heard it.

Han Jiankun took Li Xuewu's wash bag and went to the soft sleeper carriage, packed Li Xuewu's luggage, and walked back.

Neither of them was in a hurry; the shout from the train attendant meant it would take at least ten minutes to stop properly.

This was a freight special train, going directly to the Steel Mill's dispatch workshop, not a stopover, so what was there to be anxious about?

However, people in the carriage didn't think so. They had been stuffy in the train for half a day and a night, and they were used to actively queuing to get off the train, so the aisle was a bit crowded.

Li Xuewu moved into his seat, watching the scenery outside the window slide by slowly, until he entered the Steel Mill's workshop from the railway passage.

Through the window, Li Xuewu had already seen the figure of Xu Ning coming to pick up the station.

Xu Ning also saw the Li Kezhang sitting in his seat, smiled, walked over, and waved.

Li Xuewu smiled and signaled to the people in the carriage, then signaled to the door.

Xu Ning understood and went straight to the carriage door to wait.

Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Han Jiankun and introduced: "Xu Ning, Li Kezhang of the Steel City Security Division."

"I know."

Han Jiankun nodded and said: "I've heard people mention it."

Li Xuewu knew what people mentioned in Han Jiankun's mouth; it was nothing more than Xu Ning following him, jumping three steps, and taking a big step.

But Li Xuewu didn't care about these discussions; it was precisely this unconventional style that made the Security Division full of vitality and fighting spirit.

The Security Division is responsible for security; naturally, it uses the sharpness of young people. Should it use old men in their fifties or sixties to chat with you~

"Li Kezhang, was the journey okay?"

Xu Ning saw Li Xuewu getting off the train, first gave a salute, and then asked with a smile.

Li Xuewu returned a salute, patted Xu Ning's arm with a smile, and said: "Good, ate well, slept well."

After saying that, he pointed to Han Jiankun behind him and introduced: "This is Han Jiankun."

"Hello."

Xu Ning smiled and reached out to shake hands with Han Jiankun to greet him. Han Jiankun also held Xu Ning's hand and greeted: "Hello, Li Kezhang Xu, I am the leader's driver."

"Hehe, don't call me Li Kezhang when the leader is here."

Xu Ning looked at Li Xuewu and smiled: "It would be troublesome if the leader gives me small shoes to wear."

Li Xuewu stood on the platform looking at the factory area of the Steel Mill, heard this, turned his head and smiled: "Then you have to be careful. I prepared a box of small shoes this time I came here."

"Then I really have to be careful, hahahaha~"

Comrades who fought together naturally had laughter, but the situation Xu Ning reported to Li Xuewu after getting on the car made Li Xuewu have to tighten his mind and listen carefully to Xu Ning's report.

"The Discipline Inspection entered in mid-March. By now, the situation in the city has basically been figured out."

Xu Ning reported seriously to Li Xuewu: "Li Kezhang Ji here couldn't hold it anymore. After contacting Nie Liansheng, he chased three main figures in a row, but there was no gain at all."

"Hmm, he told me."

Li Xuewu frowned slightly and nodded: "Are the three dead? Have you found out who did it?"

"At first, Li Kezhang Ji didn't expect things to turn so urgently."

Xu Ning was also surprised by this situation and explained the reason to Li Xuewu: "The first one to die was Ma Liuzi, the fish that slipped through the net of the case you handled last time. Just as it was determined to fix him, he was found killed in the back mountain."

"The second one was provided by Yu Min, the Deputy Factory Director of the Steel City Food Factory, Mu Hai. Li Kezhang Ji took people to follow him for a night, and the next day found the person hanged himself."

"The third one was the person in charge of the Steel City Youth Art Troupe, who drowned himself."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and looked at the office building of the Steel Mill, asking: "When will they be back?"

"Li Kezhang Ji went to check the channels. Wen Hanze and Yu Min are cooperating with Nie Liansheng to find the warehouse. They should be back around six or seven in the evening."

Xu Ning thought for a while and said: "If you want to take over the case first, you can go to the Food Factory to find Li Kezhang Ji."

"No hurry."

As soon as the car stopped, Li Xuewu opened the door and got off, saying: "See Secretary Dong first."

Li Xuewu naturally told Dong Wenxue that he was coming. Since he had arrived at the station, the first stop was naturally to see Dong Wenxue.

Last time the master and apprentice talked for a long time in the Rolling Steel Mill. Ten days later, Li Xuewu came to Steel City and brought some bad news again.

Xu Ning naturally didn't know what Li Xuewu wanted to talk to the leader about, but he still followed Li Xuewu's itinerary.

He sent him directly to Dong Wenxue's office, exchanged pleasantries, and then went to arrange Li Xuewu's accommodation.

Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxue sat on the sofa. The ten-day interval wasn't that unfamiliar or awkward.

Dong Wenxue looked at Li Xuewu and asked with a smile: "Got the certificate?"

"Hmm."

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "The 8th, that Tuesday."

Dong Wenxue nodded with a smile and said with gratification: "Good, establish a family and establish a career, a big hurdle for a man."

"You have to help me say some good words in front of Uncle Gu."

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "I couldn't arrange it because I didn't wait for him to come back."

Dong Wenxue looked at his proud student with a smile and said: "Why didn't you know how to call yourself?"

"How dare I?"

Li Xuewu smiled bitterly: "That phone is directly connected to the headquarters. If I delay Uncle Gu's work, hehe."

"You also have times when you are afraid?"

Dong Wenxue smiled and continued: "The old leader looks very serious, but in fact, he values family affection very much. He is the same to Gu Ning and to you. Contact more, it's fine."

Li Xuewu understood Dong Wenxue's meaning of saying Gu Ning first and then himself. Regardless of what Gu Haitao's identity was, with Gu Ning there, he was his son-in-law and his family.

However, this was Dong Wenxue saying it. Li Xuewu wasn't prepared to do so. Unless it was particularly urgent, he would never make that call.

Besides, they were all big men; using the way of calling to contact feelings always had a bit of awkward meaning.

Dong Wenxue naturally knew Li Xuewu's thoughts; he had also gone through this back then, so he couldn't give Li Xuewu much advice.

After saying two private things, Dong Wenxue asked about the situation in the Rolling Steel Mill.

Although the Security Division sent briefings every day, text ultimately had limitations, and he still wanted to hear the explanation from Li Xuewu, the person involved.

"The seeds we planted last year have blossomed."

Li Xuewu told Dong Wenxue about the situation when the leaders came to research the day before yesterday, focusing on his safety system and application.

Dong Wenxue nodded and said: "I didn't expect this seed to blossom and bear fruit. I didn't have much confidence at the time."

"This is thanks to the hard work of the teacher's wife."

Li Xuewu said with a hint of meaning about Han Shu's efforts and hard work in this work, which made Dong Wenxue smile.

"It's your ability."

Dong Wenxue flicked the ash in the ashtray and sighed: "When you said you would do it in the Security Section and then in the whole factory, I was thinking, even if you do the dual-plan in the whole division, it would take five or eight years."

After sighing, Dong Wenxue shook his head and said: "Time and fate, turning around, you actually made it happen."

"It's ours together."

Although Li Xuewu smiled, he also said seriously: "Whether it's the dual-plan or the work report to be submitted, you are the leader."

"Actually, it's not necessary."

Dong Wenxue waved his hand modestly and said: "When I was transferred to Steel City, I told you that my focus is not on the Rolling Steel Mill. The more stable you are, the better."

"I actually feel that with you in the Security Division, we feel solid in our hearts."

Li Xuewu smiled and flattered him with the truth in his heart, then raised his eyebrows and said: "I am still a blade of grass now, unable to withstand big winds and waves, so I can only hide here with you."

Dong Wenxue smiled and pointed at Li Xuewu. This wasn't about the credit of the dual-plan anymore.

Sometimes Dong Wenxue felt inexplicable when thinking of Li Xuewu, this student. What kind of fate made the two "fall in love at first sight"?

It was definitely not just a few words from Sister Xie that could promote this master-apprentice story in the Rolling Steel Mill.

There was Li Xuewu's humility and ability, and perhaps his own maneuvering.

"Is the situation in the Rolling Steel Mill very severe?"

"It should be said that Deputy Factory Director Li..." ===== CHAPTER 546 =====
