Chapter 949: Meeting the Wrong Person

Lou Ting was somewhat afraid of Li Xuewu, which could be seen from the fact that he hid behind Tan Yali and peeked secretly, not daring to get close to this side.

But his identity as a "civilized person" didn't allow him to show a cowardly side, so he pursed his little mouth hard, and even while gnawing on the bun in his hand, his little face remained tense.

Li Xuewu didn't tease him again, but ate steamed buns and drank rice porridge with Lou Yu, chatting idly about the recent busyness. As they talked, Tan Yali listened while serving the child food.

Lou Yu didn't show any emotions in his words. Compared to the unpleasantness of their last meeting, this time he actually had a bit of relief.

Perhaps the obsession in his heart had been smashed to pieces by his daughter who turned her elbow outward. Flesh is flesh, and the boat is already in the river.

He was in the interior, so even if he wanted to take out his father's identity to reconcile the contradiction between his children, he was powerless.

During this period, he also understood clearly. From the moment he chose his daughter as the balance point between himself and Li Xuewu, the family's power had already changed, and the scepter had been handed by him to his daughter's hands.

It was just his unwillingness to accept, his desire for power and money, and his obsession with life and career.

Or perhaps it was the sense of expectation he had when seeing his wife and children in Hong Kong, and the sense of guilt as a father, that made him choose to take a risk one more time.

Even if he lost, at most he would apologize with death, ensuring his daughter was safe, and thus ensuring the family property was safe.

However, he never expected that Li Xuewu didn't make a move, but his daughter solved this matter with her own hands.

And Li Xuewu's appearance today, and the arrival of his eldest grandson, just happened to show that this matter had been settled and ended there.

Plus Tan Yali's careful care for him and her tolerance and patience for his eldest grandson—he understood everything. Stopping when appropriate was the smart choice.

The original plan for him to manage the club while contacting Hong Kong as an information support basically had nothing to do with him now.

His daughter sending his eldest grandson back was both for Li Xuewu to see and for him to see: from now on, just educate his eldest grandson, and don't worry about other things.

"The child is young, still needs to learn."

Li Xuewu ate quickly, put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, looked at the child who was peeking at him, and said to the two, "Go to the mountain. Culture must be learned, and principles must also be learned. Although Hong Kong is right at the doorstep, it has no roots in the end."

As he spoke, he looked at the child who was eavesdropping and said, "If your feet don't touch the ground, people will float. If you don't touch the earth, you won't have spiritual energy, right?"

The answer was Lou Yu's silence and Tan Yali's worried and concerned expression.

"Life in the city is better after all..."

"Just go to the mountain."

Tan Yali's words were only half spoken when Lou Yu had already made a decision.

"I don't want to go to the mountain!"

"I don't want to be a bandit!"

Lou Ting heard this and finally couldn't help it. He threw the bun in his hand and cried while hiding in the kang.

He looked at Li Xuewu with eyes full of horror, convinced that this person was the bandit Great Commander his grandmother had mentioned!

Otherwise, why would he keep pulling him up the mountain? Just looking at his appearance, he knew he wanted him to become a bandit!

"I don't want to be a little bandit!"

"I don't want to."

"Woo woo~"

Lou Ting was truly scared, especially when he cried and shouted, his gaze fixed on that bad guy.

Look, look, that bad guy clearly knew he was already crying, yet he still looked at him with an evil gaze and a bad smile!

"Woo woo woo~"

"This child, what are you saying~"

Tan Yali couldn't laugh or cry and wanted to pull Lou Ting's hand, but he dodged it, deeply afraid of being sold by this grandmother.

Lou Yu put down his chopsticks and heard his grandson's misunderstanding without any amusement, but instead sighed.

Li Xuewu's suggestion was also what he was hesitant about. The education of a child was crucial for a family.

When he was young, his father attached great importance to his education, inviting famous teachers and teaching by example.

Thinking of his father, looking at his grandson, and thinking of himself, all the past and the current situation, he wasn't a good father.

He said very impolitely, "You guys have been making a big fuss for so long, have you gained anything!"

"I think your leader asked you to come out, not necessarily because your ability is very strong."

Li Xuewu curled his lips and said, "Is it possible that he really hates your mouth?!"

"Joke!"

Yu Daru emphasized, "You don't know how much our leader values me. The first thing he thinks of for big cases is me!"

"Hehe~"

Li Xuewu looked at him, twisted the fountain pen in his hand and asked, "Tell me, what tricks did you see?"

"Hey~~~ This is what it looks like to ask for advice~"

Yu Daru is someone who dares to pant if you say he's fat. At this moment, he continued to provoke Li Xuewu, "You guys determined Zhao Ziliang is the killer of fraud and murder, but I don't think so."

"Oh? Is that so~"

Li Xuewu picked up the cigarette box on the table, lit one for himself, leaned back in his chair and asked, "What do you think?"

"The sub-bureau asked our system to help investigate Zhao Ziliang's whereabouts to determine his life or death."

Yu Daru was very serious when talking about the case. While pulling out the case file, he explained, "But we searched along the address where the letters were sent, and judging from the situation learned from Zhili, Zhao Ziliang has no possibility of appearing."

"If he wanted to leave, it's impossible for him to make that phone call back!"

He looked at Li Xuewu and said, "It's even more impossible to write those letters back. Is he a fool?!"

As he spoke, he gestured for Li Xuewu to look at the case file and said, "We compared and studied the handwriting of the letters. It's not Zhao Ziliang's at all."

"Also, we did fingerprint collection."

Yu Daru narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "We checked everyone who might have come into contact with the letters, and the fingerprints on the letter paper are not among them at all."

"What does this explain?"

"What?"

Li Xuewu also narrowed his eyes and said, "It explains that there is someone else in the Zhang Shuqin case, and it explains that Zhao Ziliang also has problems?"

Slap!

"Correct!"

Yu Daru slapped the table hard, pointed his finger at Li Xuewu, and said with an expression of "great minds think alike," "I think exactly the same as you!"

Peng Xiaoli, who brought the teacup over, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Looking around the Rolling Mill, there weren't many people who dared to slap the table at Li Xuewu.

Yu Daru didn't care about his expression, but said excitedly, "The interesting thing about this case is that Zhao Ziliang is guilty, and Discipline Inspection is investigating him."

"If it's discovered together with this case, and the person has disappeared, who would think he is not the killer?"

"You~"

Li Xuewu flicked the cigarette ash indifferently, not shocked at all by his surprising discovery.

"People asked you to find Zhao Ziliang, but you are meddling in other people's business. Did you suffer?"

"... What's called meddling in other people's business!"

Yu Daru said angrily, "I am selfless, I have true insight, and I am penetrating!"

"Hmm, what's the result?"

Li Xuewu looked at him amusedly, waiting for him to say the final words.

Yu Daru knew Li Xuewu was in this case, so he couldn't hide it from him. He said somewhat dejectedly, "I'm really convinced, they are all rice buckets!"

After speaking, he still didn't feel convinced and poured a cup of tea, saying angrily, "How is this different from killing people like grass?"

"Rice buckets! Trash! Bastards!"

"You'd better point out the names."

Li Xuewu smiled badly, "Otherwise I don't know who you're talking about."

"Stop talking nonsense~"

Yu Daru waved his hand angrily and said, "I figured out what he wanted to do from the moment I knew you were hiding. This bastard."

"He's not afraid that this case will have a reversal later? I don't believe he can escape punishment!"

"Not necessarily."

Li Xuewu said faintly, "In case there are no new leads for ten or twenty years, this matter won't have much impact on him."

"I don't accept it!"

Yu Daru waved his hand and said, "If you're afraid, just hide. I'm not afraid. No matter who he is or what he wants to do, I must investigate it to the bottom!"

"Hmm, keep it up, I'm optimistic about you."

Li Xuewu gestured to Peng Xiaoli and said, "Help me prepare half a catty of top-notch tea for Section Chief Yu. I wish him great power and sweeping away the darkness."

"Hey~ hey~ hey~"

Yu Daru saw Li Xuewu didn't take the bait, reached out to block Peng Xiaoli who was coming to see him off, and said to Li Xuewu, "Why don't you play according to the routine?!"

He said somewhat aggrievedly, "I've already put you on the spot. You have to say for justice, for the people, let's work together!"

"Oh, I didn't know that's what you meant."

Li Xuewu looked at him calmly, with an expression of "you said it and I just knew, I didn't hear it if you didn't say it."

"But I've been quite busy lately and have no interest in handling this case. I think you can do it alone."

"No!"

Yu Daru leaned forward like a nerve case and said, "I mean, don't you want to know who made this setup and arranged and implemented this case?"

"I want to~"

Li Xuewu gestured for him to speak and said, "Wait until you break the case, you must come and tell me. I'll wait for you."

"..."

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly, froze for a long time, then nodded and said, "Fine, I surrender. I'm here to borrow the east wind from you."

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and didn't show any interest in his mystery, but he didn't refuse either.

"Lai Shanchuan is determined to close the case, even giving up on investigating the suspicious key points, and is convinced that Zhao Ziliang won't appear again."

Yu Daru said with a gloomy expression, "I suspect Zhao Ziliang has already been murdered, and there are bigger problems lurking behind this case."

"You suspect?"

Li Xuewu sat up straight and asked, "Is it internal or external?"

"Maybe both."

Yu Daru extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and explained, "The situation is so chaotic now, anything can happen. I reserve suspicion for everyone."

"Hmm, that makes sense."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, nodded in agreement, and asked again, "What's your basis?"

"First talk about the couple Zhang Shuqin and Yu Lanfang."

Yu Daru said, "The couple's monthly salary totals over 117 yuan. It seems like a lot, and there are no children to raise, but Zhang Shuqin also supports her family."

"Her family's life is not frugal, and their eating, drinking, and wearing are not as good as Zhao Ziliang's family, but they are much better than ordinary families."

"We have calculated that based on the couple's economic strength and the conflicts in the past few years, the wealth of their family is exceeding the standard."

"But!"

Yu Daru widened his eyes slightly, looked at Li Xuewu earnestly and said, "Zhang Shuqin has never had any violation records in the unit, and her character is very reliable."

"You mean... there's a problem with the fraud case?"

Li Xuewu thought for a moment and said, "If you consider it from the perspective of criminal psychology, being short of money or needing a lot of money to satisfy needs means she already had a criminal record."

"Right! That's it!"

Yu Daru sat up straight and said, "Everyone is short of money. Even if Zhang Shuqin's family life is good, she is short of money, but she didn't have the process of corruption in the unit. How could she directly attack the credit union?"

"What if? What if someone instructed her?"

Li Xuewu opened the case file and said, "Existing evidence proves that there is a special relationship between her and Zhao Ziliang."

"But this doesn't prove she is a bad person."

Yu Daru said, "People have seven emotions and six desires. Handling cases still needs to start from the root and investigate carefully. You can't just generalize."

"I've seen Yu Lanfang. He said the money in the family was always managed by his wife. Zhang Shuqin herself is a financial person and is very persistent about this point."

"He doesn't know anything, and doesn't know how the appliances and valuables in the family came from. He thought they were earned by the couple and only complained that his wife was extravagant."

"Zhao Ziliang's economy must have had problems. Not only internal reimbursement, but also often bringing things back from the outside, there are components of reselling, and the profit is very rich."

"This point is the most critical."

Yu Daru opened his notebook and introduced, "We calculated that even if he made a profit every time, the total income couldn't satisfy their family's life."

"Not to mention he has so many mistress relationships, all of which need money to connect. This case has problems."

"So you investigated Du Xiaoyan, right?"

Li Xuewu took the last drag of his cigarette and wiped the ash in the ashtray.

Yu Daru tapped the case file, narrowed his eyes and said, "I knew she had a problem!"

After speaking, he looked at Li Xuewu somewhat complainingly, "Since you already knew, why didn't you say it?"

"Say what?"

"When did I say she had a problem?"

Li Xuewu curled his lips and said, "Be rigorous. This is a case, and you have to use facts to speak."

"I want facts."

Yu Daru narrowed his eyes and said, "I went to check Du Xiaoyan's account in the credit union. Guess what?"

"What? What else could it be?"

Li Xuewu smiled lightly, "There must be no problem, right."

"Fuck it!"

Yu Daru slapped the table hatefully and said, "No problem! No problem! No problem!"

He said somewhat hysterically, pressing his voice to Li Xuewu, "At this time, there's actually no problem with the credit union accountant?!"

"Do you think it's possible?"

"Hmm, it's possible."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and said, "I have always firmly believed that good cadres like me in the organization are far more than those bad elements."

"... Talking about business!"

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly and said, "Even the small team leader in the village knows how to give his relatives more points. Do you believe these accountants are strict with themselves?"

"So? How do you want to investigate?"

Li Xuewu looked at him and said, "I was only asked to be responsible for criminal interrogation and analysis-related business support. How can I help you?"

"No, not you, it should be said not just you."

Yu Daru blinked his eyes and asked, "Guess, who is the person in charge of Discipline Inspection investigating the Joint Venture Factory's problems?"

"Who?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked tentatively, "Xiang Yunian?"

"Haha! Guessed right!"

Yu Daru smiled and said, "The person behind this case will never think of who he will face!"

He counted with his fingers, "City Discipline Inspection Iron-Faced Judge, Youth Criminal Investigation Expert, and the strongest investigator of the Confidentiality Department..."

"Hiss~~~"

Li Xuewu was blown away by him and asked, "Is there one mixed in that is not very harmonious?"

"..."

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu somewhat anxiously and asked, "Do you think Xiang Yunian doesn't deserve this title?"

"I really think..."

Li Xuewu said half of his words and pursed his lips. He was really afraid that saying the complete words would hurt the fragile, dispensable friendship he had with someone.

"You contact Xiang Yunian."

Yu Daru didn't care about Li Xuewu's expression change, picked up the phone and handed it to Li Xuewu, saying, "The three of us swordsmen make a move, and these monsters and ghosts will definitely have nowhere to hide."

Li Xuewu looked at Yu Daru's somewhat stunned expression and put the phone back.

Looking at Yu Daru's somewhat stunned expression, he said, "You have to tell me clearly how you want to investigate."

"Investigate Du Xiaoyan, the same as you think."

Yu Daru explained, "I asked Du Xiaoyan about the luxury of her family life, and she said it was all money given by her husband."

"I really don't believe it. This case is definitely not a fraud and murder case!"

He looked at Li Xuewu earnestly and asked, "Tell me seriously, how did you suspect Du Xiaoyan?"

"Investigating cases~"

Li Xuewu said indifferently, "There are only a few parties involved. Zhao Ziliang can't be found, Yu Lanfang is in custody, if you don't suspect her, who do you suspect?"

"I think so too."

Yu Daru nodded and said, "But I have no way to directly investigate Du Xiaoyan. Her leader protects her very much, and Lai Shanchuan of the sub-bureau seems to be familiar with her."

After saying this, he seemed to realize something and said to Li Xuewu, "You hid last week because of these, right?"

"I guessed it based on a man's intuition. Even if Zhao Ziliang had an affair with Zhang Shuqin and the two conspired to commit fraud, it wouldn't go as far as killing to silence."

Li Xuewu easily led the topic over and didn't answer Yu Daru's question.

And continued, "When I suspected Zhang Shuqin's motive for fraud, I was thinking, she is good-looking, but it wouldn't make Zhao Ziliang abandon his family and business for her."

"I didn't see any record of Zhao Ziliang owing money or being investigated in the case file. He doesn't look like he's short of money."

"Everything is at home, life is prosperous, and he can pick wild flowers normally. If I give you fifty thousand yuan, would you take the risk to run away for a wild flower?"

"Even if Du Xiaoyan can spend money, even if the family's life burden is heavy, would he risk such a big risk to commit fraud and murder?"

"Motive?"

Li Xuewu spread his hands and said, "I don't believe he loves his wife that much. At least from the facts, that's the case."

"If he really loved her, shouldn't he have left the fifty thousand yuan to Du Xiaoyan? But two months have passed, is it possible?"

"Yeah, it's contradictory."

Yu Daru nodded and said, "Something must have gone wrong. You also think Zhao Ziliang didn't run away, but is dead, right?"

"I didn't say that."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and said, "Like you, I fully reserve suspicion for everyone."

"My suspicion is based on real investigation!"

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu amusedly and asked, "What is your suspicion based on?"

"Intuition."

Li Xuewu pointed at his head and said, "This is criminal psychology. Exclude all possibilities. Even if it's impossible, it's possible."

"Intuition? Isn't that just blind guessing!"

Yu Daru had heard Li Xuewu say this word several times and said unconvinced, "If you say so, I also feel that there is a ghost behind this case. Maybe it's you, Li Xuewu, who plotted for wealth and killed for money!"

"You bastard, this isn't called intuition!"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes and scolded, "You bastard, this is called crazy!"

"What's going on?"

Zhang Songying and Han Yating came to the canteen to report work to Li Xuewu and asked with concern when they saw his bad face.

Li Xuewu smiled helplessly and said, "Been a bit tired lately, exhausted."

"Is that so? Why are you so busy?"

Zhang Songying sat opposite him and said with concern, "Can't you put the work down a bit~"

"Hmm, already arranging it."

Li Xuewu smiled slightly, looked at the two and asked, "Why? Anything?"

"It's about the hotel."

Han Yating sat down with her big belly, glanced at Zhang Songying, and then reported, "The opening for business is set for Wednesday. I don't know if you have any instructions."

Zhang Songying also heard the scruples in Han Yating's words, afraid of disturbing Li Xuewu, and echoed somewhat hesitantly, "I wanted to ask for instructions, didn't expect you to be so busy."

"It's okay, met a bastard this morning, got angry."

Li Xuewu smiled and asked, "Director Li has decided on the name, right?"

"Yes, received the notice from the Management Committee Office last week."

Zhang Songying reported, "Director Li approved 'Red Star International Hotel' as more atmospheric than the original Six Nations Hotel, suitable for use."

"We have made preparations here."

She flipped through her notebook and said, "All text-based labels and marks have been set as Red Star International Hotel. Towels, bath towels, door plates, etc., are all being rushed."

"Will it be in time?"

Li Xuewu drank a mouthful of soup and said, "The time is a bit urgent. For you, it's a test."

"It's okay, the factory's three-industry is supporting us, no need to queue."

Zhang Songying said, "Now it's trial operation. Many problems will be encountered. Handling them slowly and learning slowly is fine."

"Mainly the guests."

Han Yating took the initiative to speak, "According to Director Li's meaning, temporarily entertain the visiting commercial travel groups, and then gradually open other functional areas."

"Hmm, Director Li thinks more."

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "Just do as the leader says. Did the foreign affairs office say when the travel group will arrive?"

"Yes, there is a coordination notice."

Zhang Songying reported, "Tentatively scheduled to arrive on Friday afternoon. People from the Foreign Affairs Department and the Confidentiality Department are responsible for the reception. The location is right in our hotel."

"The Foreign Affairs Department is naturally willing."

Li Xuewu said while eating, "The hotel is right at their gate, which is convenient."

"Hmm, the cadres who came to connect also said so."

Zhang Songying smiled and looked at Han Yating, then explained, "It seems they have to study first before they can carry out commercial activities."

"Very normal, listen to the organization's arrangements."

Li Xuewu pointed at them and exhorted, "Personnel training must be done well, and must be done often, especially the confidentiality problem. Don't make mistakes."

"Understood."

The two answered in unison. Zhang Songying took her notebook and reported to Li Xuewu about the personnel arrangement of the International Hotel, as well as the material and service situation.

Han Yating was arranged to be the general manager, but the preparation work for the International Hotel was Zhang Songying's responsibility.

The two got along very harmoniously, both knowing their own abilities and tasks, and didn't care about the gain or loss of power.

Zhang Songying was a professional, and Han Yating was a management person. They respected each other and recognized each other.

Han Yating was especially grateful for Zhang Songying's care for her during her hospitalization. Whether from public affairs or private friendship, there was no problem.

Zhang Songying reported on personnel preparation, as well as material and service conditions, and Han Yating reported on financial and logistics management problems.

Especially the management plan standards and service standards given by Li Xuewu were new knowledge for them.

Zhang Songying had investigated and studied in Yangcheng and could be considered to have come into contact with fresh things. Han Yating could only master them through document learning.

Li Xuewu listened very carefully. During the meal, cadres came to chat with him from time to time, but seeing he was busy, they all greeted him and went to other compartments.

To say he has money, Li Xuewu also has a small fortune; if he eats like this and wears like this, he can afford to wear it and afford to eat it.

Because of this, the two came to Li Xuewu to report work.

In name, it was reporting work. Although they were also talking about work

The criminal group leader's meaning was very clear. Now the direction of the investigation was locked on Zhao Ziliang, and the other party had major suspicion.

And because the Joint Venture Factory's self-inspection found he had violations, the discipline inspection department had also intervened.

That's why Li Xuewu said this case was particularly complex. There were too many issues involved and too many variables, so it was really not easy to investigate.

Now the discipline inspection was investigating Zhao Ziliang's matter. The two units were moving forward together, cooperating with each other, and the goal was to find Zhao Ziliang or determine Zhao Ziliang's criminal facts.

When Li Xuewu asked about Yu Lanfang, the criminal group leader's explanation was that Director Lai had communicated with Yu Lanfang later, asking him if he knew Zhao Ziliang.

Yu Lanfang said he didn't know him, but had heard of such a person, and wasn't sure if the other party had an affair with his wife.

The criminal group leader's meaning was that without determining Zhao Ziliang's criminal facts, Yu Lanfang still had the motive and suspicion for murder.

And they didn't have the energy to investigate Yu Lanfang's alibi, or the parts where the two didn't intersect.

Lai Shanchuan went all-in, putting all his strength into searching for Zhao Ziliang.

Li Xuewu understood Lai Shanchuan very well. Resources were limited, and the target had already jumped out. Whether to lock Yu Lanfang for a few more days or split manpower to help him clear his suspicion—this multiple-choice question didn't need much thought for the answer.

When Lai Shanchuan interrogated Yu Lanfang for the last time, he had already laid his cards on the table. By the end of this month, if Zhao Ziliang couldn't be found, he would be released home.

The criminal group leader's words were very clear. The case must be closed before the end of this month, even if it was in the form of an arrest warrant.

Li Xuewu put down the phone. Regardless of how much the three heard, he took the initiative to say, "Criminal cases are often very difficult to handle. Detention is not equal to crime; it is also a form of protection."

"I understand."

Mei Xiaohong and the three sat relatively far away and didn't hear clearly, but they could see one or two things from Li Xuewu's face.

"My foster father is very worried about my eldest brother. I'm afraid if he has any accidents, my foster father will..."

"Go back, wait a few days and then talk."

Li Xuewu nodded and comforted, "He won't suffer inside. No one dares to mess around. Rest assured."

"Thank you, thank you Director Li."

Mei Xiaohong bowed and saluted, her mouth constantly saying words of thanks.

Li Xuewu smiled and pointed at the things on the coffee table, gestured to Mr. Mai and said, "Please pack these up and take them back. I've already eaten breakfast and can't eat these delicacies."

"Director Li."

Mei Xiaohong insisted, "My foster father said in advance that he can't keep these things and doesn't miss them anymore. Giving them to you is just a thank you, no other meaning."

"Then I can't take them either."

Li Xuewu waved his hand, gestured to Mr. Mai and said, "I won't mention any work discipline to you. Mr. Mai is my brother's father-in-law, a real relative. If I take them, I can't be a human being."

"This..."

Mei Xiaohong looked at Senior Brother anxiously, wanting to ask him to help, but these things couldn't be taken back.

Not being able to keep them was one aspect. When asking for help, what you send out can't be taken back; otherwise, things won't be easy to handle.

Mr. Mai saw Li Xuewu really didn't want them, and Mei Xiaohong didn't want to take them back. Being stuck in the middle was also difficult.

It was his wife Hu Huilan who was smart. She took Mei Xiaohong's hand, looked at Li Xuewu, and said, "Since Director Li has inconvenience, these things must not cause you trouble."

"Sister-in-law~..."

Mei Xiaohong was about to be anxious when she heard her say this, but she was interrupted by Hu Huilan pinching her hand just as she opened her mouth.

"We have lived in this club for a period of time."

Hu Huilan said with a smile, "I heard that a literature and art museum is going to be built in the courtyard next to us, right? Director Li is righteous."

She first praised Li Xuewu, then gestured to the precious jade on the table and said, "Mr. Ma is the leader of the pear garden line. He should contribute a share of strength to this literature and art."

Mei Xiaohong also heard the meaning in her words. At this moment, she took the lead and said, "Yes, Director Li, it's my foster father's heart. I hope you won't refuse."

"Hehe, Auntie, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

Li Xuewu shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Our club is a collective internal club. How can we accept Mr. Ma's gift?"

"I understand all this. It's causing you trouble."

Hu Huilan said apologetically, "And it's fulfilling Xiaohong's heart, and also fulfilling Mr. Ma's righteousness."

"Like this..."

Mr. Mai saw Li Xuewu still wanted to refuse and suddenly said, "Mr. Ma is in poor health and can no longer go on stage, but he can still guide students."

He glanced at his wife and said, "The two girls, Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao, are raw jade materials and have no teacher inheritance. It's just convenient to introduce them to Mr. Ma."

Mei Xiaohong didn't know what Senior Brother was talking about, but she could hear that the two girls Senior Brother mentioned seemed to have something to do with this Director Li.

Sure enough, she found that after Senior Brother said this, Director Li didn't insist anymore.

"Senior Brother, Director Li, my foster father's health is really poor, and I have to go back and discuss it before making a decision."

Mei Xiaohong was a steady girl and didn't dare to make decisions for her foster father outside. She took the initiative to explain and clarify, which counted as agreeing to the conditions.

Mr. Mai attached great importance to this. He pressed the ornament on the table and explained to Mei Xiaohong about the situation of Tong Huimei and the two, also hinting at the importance of this relationship.

Mei Xiaohong attached great importance to it and said that she would go to her foster father now and give an answer as soon as possible.

Li Xuewu was about to say let her take the things back first, but Mei Xiaohong refused firmly and stood up to leave.

Mr. Mai saw Li Xuewu's gesture, held Mei Xiaohong, and called Wang Xiaoqin and Wei Qing, who were exercising in the courtyard next door, to make a donation certificate. Only then was this matter finished.

Mr. Mai and his wife were worried about losing, and afraid that Mei Xiaohong wouldn't explain clearly, so they said a few words to Li Xuewu and followed her to visit Mr. Ma.

Li Xuewu didn't care about those stones. It wasn't as good as Wang Xiaoqin and the two's exclamations, but he was quite surprised by the opportunity of Tong Huimei and the two.

If they could apprentice under Mr. Ma, it would be considered a root for the two who were like rootless duckweed.

Mr. Ma's last disciple—one person closes one door. With the teacher's health condition and the current situation, this door could definitely be closed tightly.

"Really a bastard!"

"Dog-fucker, if I see him again, I'll definitely spend him!"

"Alright~"

Li Yuanchao listened to the chatter in his ear and reminded somewhat irritably, "They are taking pictures over there, don't lose the face of the men."

"We only have this one face left."

Zhang Haiyang spat, picked up five whole bricks, and cursed while walking, "I don't know where you met this bastard. He even cheated his own people!"

"Fine, fine, fine, count it as me meeting the wrong person, okay~"

Li Yuanchao also moved five bricks, walked on one side of him, and explained, "This bastard must have suffered a foreign crime here and was unwilling, so he dragged us into the water."

"Otherwise, I said that when we met them at the door last time, they all looked like they had lost their souls. It turns out it was this!"

"Not just us!"

Zhang Haiyang gestured to the hundreds of people around and said, "Those grandsons are everywhere promoting that the Rolling Mill's reception project is good, with movies, free meals, and symposiums with the dance troupe. They really cheated a lot."

"Just wait and see. When we brothers finish the task and walk out of this gate, we must slaughter them!"

"Even if we don't do it, these people won't let them go easily!"

Don't say, this kid Zhong Yuemin is really ghostly. The three of them tasted the sweetness of cheating people and went everywhere to preach how they played in the Rolling Mill and publicized the experience of reform.

These little brats gathered together to brag to each other. They could blow one point into one hundred points.

The first one to believe it was Li Yuanchao and his group, who went back and made an appointment with Zhang Haiyang's group. This is called sharing happiness.

But never expected, happiness wasn't enjoyed, but instead, they did bitter hard labor.

No way, they were all promising young people. This time, the cadres in the reception office were more experienced and even arranged interviews at the radio station.

Saying that after the labor ended, they would select representatives to accept interviews and write them into interview reports to be published in newspapers.

These young people couldn't stand this stimulation, and one by one they almost peed blood from exhaustion.

Those propaganda cadres held cameras one by one and didn't see them changing film, just clicking and taking pictures.

Who knows if it was real photography or fooling them? Anyway, the lens chased over, so they had to work hard.

Zhang Haiyang's mouth kept complaining, asking Li Yuanchao if it was fulfilling.

Li Yuanchao also had a look of life being loveless, saying he would go find Zhong Yuemin to settle the account when he went back.

After the brick-moving activity ended, they didn't expect to really wait for the dance troupe's symposium.

Good fellow, the crowd of little chicks who were rained on regained their spiritual vitality, and the young men were like fighting cocks one by one.

Zhang Haiyang looked at the girls and quietly said to Li Yuanchao, "It's really beautiful!"

Li Yuanchao also nodded with a flower-crazy look, "Beautiful, beautiful, really beautiful~"

The day was very long, and the symposium was very short. When they pushed the carts out of the Rolling Mill gate, looking back, they couldn't help but show the same expression as Zhong Yuemin and the others they saw last time.

The Rolling Mill's exchange project was very popular. Those who didn't grab the registration this time really waited at the door to ask if the activity of the previous batch of visitors was fun.

Someone asked Li Yuanchao and Zhang Haiyang's side. The two looked at each other, then looked at the person together and nodded, "Very fulfilling, very beautiful!"

There are bad kids and honest ones. Nearly a thousand people came to visit in two batches, and there were always people who wanted to tell the truth.

But among these little brats, how many are particularly honest?

There are, but not many~!

Especially hearing Li Yuanchao and Zhang Haiyang say this, they all followed suit and shouted: "Very fulfilling, very beautiful!"

For a time, the registration for the Rolling Mill's visit and exchange project was endless, and it really became like an internet-famous check-in place.

Every time the activity ended, those waiting at the door could hear a slogan of beautiful and fulfilling.

But in less than two months, the little brats at the Rolling Mill gate disappeared, and none of them came anymore.

But no one said moving bricks was tiring; they all said the Rolling Mill's reform was done well and there was no need for exchange. ===== CHAPTER 950 =====
