Bait

An Qiao drove back to Chen's mansion.

The living room was dark, there was a cold cigarette butt in the ashtray, the door to the backyard was ajar, the draft blew through the hall, and the ashes floated all over the floor.

Following the moonlight, the silhouette of a man under the night is vaguely shadowy.

A fence encloses a corner of the courtyard, and Chen Yuan is in the center of the mast, bending over to dig the soil.

His clothes were drenched, and he pressed against his strong chest, the gaps between the muscle walls were sunken, and beads of sweat flowed criss-cross.

The tip of the hoe was repeatedly shoveled, and sporadic soil splashed on the tips of his hair and collar. He had probably taken a bath, and the stubble was neatly picked, but his hair was not combed. It was hard and thick. Unleash the strength of the wild.

With a flick of his hand, he stroked his short hair over the top of his head, revealing a clean and straight forehead.

Chen Yuan is a deep mystery that cannot be deciphered.

Like a dead sea, no one knows how many turbulent waves are buried under the sea.

At least, he is calm on the surface, his eyes are quiet and secretive, as if wrapped in Gu, possessing the magical power of seductive trance.

A little attracted, trapped, lost.

"Chen Dong, be careful of catching cold." An Qiao took off the coat hanging on the pergola and put it on his shoulders, "Why are you interested in hoeing?"

Chen Yuan threw the tool behind the stump, "By this time next year, the plum tree will be in full bloom."

"Don't you like ink bamboo?"

Qiao Hanrun likes white roses, Jiang Rong likes magnolias, and he planted a red plum that has nothing to do with the two closest women.

An Qiao was puzzled, "Miss Shen likes red plums?"

She had seen a plum blossom tattoo on Shen Zhen's collarbone, with five bright red petals, exquisite and gorgeous.

At first glance, it doesn't fit her innocent temperament, but after careful taste, it fits perfectly, making her full of desire.

Chen Yuan pushed open the door and entered the living room.

An Qiao followed him step by step, he was hot as if on fire, the thick smell of sweat, sharp panting, melted into his lonely and unvented body for many years, and this stagnant dim night.

Chen Yuan was drinking at the bar, the milky white marble tiles reflected his drunken and silent face.

"Where have you been."

An Qiao couldn't help but panic, "I feel sick to my stomach, go to the bathroom in the west courtyard."

She couldn't talk about the south courtyard, because Chen Yuan was here, and the west courtyard just happened to be banned. Now that Jiang Rong is out of favor, the servants are also playing around with the wind, and they hardly set foot there, so they won't be exposed as lies.

Since he asked, he must have touched her route.

An Qiao handled it cautiously.

Chen Yuan tapped on a beam of broken light from the mouth of the cup, "What did you tell Shen Zhen in the ward."

She was calm and composed, "I said what you told me to say, and I didn't say a word."

He tilted his head, and An Qiao stood there, impeccable.

"yes."

"The day I took up the job, you taught me personally that you don't have to doubt people, and you don't have to doubt people." She was neither humble nor overbearing, "The chairman arranged for me to assist you. You are my master. I have only loyalty and no dissatisfaction."

Chen Yuan laughed, the spicy foreign wine passed his throat, his eyes were slightly red, like a flood of emotion, "That's the best, you know my bottom line and taboos."

Inside the old house, the lights are brightly lit at the moment.

Ni Ying fell asleep in the guest bedroom of the north courtyard. When she woke up, Chen Zhiyun just cut off the phone and browsed a revised version of "Tongjian for Zizhi".

She opened the drawer and took out a bottle of perfume, "Your ex-wife is looking for me."

Chen Zhiyun ignored the answer, "You messed with her."

"The wedding is going to be held soon, do I deserve to mess with her?" Ni Ying was upset, "First she cursed and threatened me, if she didn't get a divorce, she would expose my dark history. I didn't take your money, why is she in such a hurry, My mother's family went bankrupt, and people became poor."

He turned a page and said nothing.

"You can't control your ex-wife, so I'll take care of it for you." She sprayed it behind her ears, and the faint fragrance floated in an instant.

Chen Zhiyun was very irritable, put down his book, and walked out of the room, "I took a lot of effort to get you, and you still dare to toss."

"Are you scooping me up? You're trying to save your own reputation. If I marry you, the husband and wife will be prosperous and the other will be ruined. You can't afford my scandal." Ni Ying twisted her hips and snorted slightly, following behind.

He was annoyed by her ignorant virtue, "I can't afford it, so leave, can't I?"

Ni Ying sneered, "You let out such a long line, it's time to go fishing, are you willing to cut the line?"

"Second Uncle." Suddenly, a man's voice came from the end of the corridor.

Chen Zhiyun immediately stopped.

On the right is a red lantern, originally hanging from the courtyard beam, which He Peiyu liked so much that it was tied to the door of her bedroom.

The candlelight was flickering, and the face could not be seen clearly, but it was vaguely a white and thin wrist, and the smoke was entangled in strands, the man's sleeves were spread out and rolled up loosely.

Ni Ying's five fingers clenched tightly, she lost control and rushed over, "Are you so cruel to me?"

Chen Zhiyun had already guessed who it was, worried that she would ruin the overall situation, and tried to restrain her, "Ni Ying, what are you doing!"

She turned a deaf ear and just wanted his answer.

"Are you cruel?" The man was covered by a wall, his tone was lazy, with a terrifying viciousness.

"Zhiyun told me that you asked Zhang Sheng to be tried for a huge amount of fraud, ranging from three years to ten years." Ni Ying grabbed his arm, "Chen Chongzhou, it turns out that you didn't simply teach me, you really wanted to destroy me. me."

The man who was hiding in the dark corner came out calmly and steadily, "my plan, the second uncle has no predictions, such a vast network, why don't you introduce it to me?"

Chen Chongzhou suspected early in the morning that Chen Zhiyun planned and manipulated this game behind the scenes, using other people's mouths to instigate Ni Ying to persecute Shen Zhen and anger him. Because of Mrs. Chen's identity, she worked hard, and at the same time hated him even more and took revenge on him.

This move has high risk and high return.

Like Chen Zhiyun's method.

Now, Ni Ying has indeed gone crazy because of love and hatred.

A deformed and vicious woman is the most difficult to guard against.

Chen Chongzhou looked past Ni Ying and landed on Chen Zhiyun's face, "Second uncle, I plan to ask you for this woman, can you make it easier for me?"

A moment of stalemate.

"I'm old, Chongzhou, do you want me to humbly beg you to let her go?"

He smiled intriguingly, "Second Uncle begged me, I should give you face, but this time, I'm sorry I won't."

After finishing speaking, Chen Chongzhou glanced at Ni Ying, "I shouldn't have saved you, let you fend for yourself, and save future troubles."

Like a sharp sword, it pierced straight into her heart, causing her to die of pain, "Are you going to give up my life?" Ni Ying rushed forward, choked up and asked in a posture of hugging him, "Chen Chongzhou, you even killed me?" Don't you care about your life?"

"You almost killed her too." He ruthlessly avoided it, and Ni Ying fell to the ground.

Chen Chongzhou took a step forward, she took a step back, she felt his violent lethality, from his eyebrows, his body, and his breath.

That kind of cold and flamboyant aura spread across his bones and skin, crushing everything about her alive.

It is Chen Chongzhou who has never experienced it before, and is completely unfamiliar.

Or, the former Chen Chongzhou simply couldn't bear to treat her like this.

Ni Ying gritted her teeth, was forced to a corner, her back hit the screen, and her limbs curled up in pain.

He looked away and looked at Chen Zhiyun again, "Is Second Uncle sure to protect her?"

The latter just smiled and didn't answer, "Your father is waiting for you in the study, don't delay."

Chen Chongzhou extinguished his cigarette butt and walked away.

Chen Zhiyun pulled Ni Ying up, with an impatient expression on his face, "Is it meaningful? In the eyes of a man who has empathized with someone else, your tears are worthless."

At this moment, Ni Ying realized the feeling of the world falling apart, and her old love and old love she relied on collapsed into an army.

Her face was pale and she couldn't restrain her trembling, "I won't let her go, and I won't let them go."

Chen Zhiyun looked down from a high position, and his unknown emotions were fleeting.

***

Over there, Chen Ling was in the provincial office building, visiting a man with white hair who looked like a scholar.

The man brewed a cup of tea, "Are you used to it in the provincial office?"

"Adapting." Chen Ling took the teacup, "Missing that you came here specially."

"Missing me?" The man laughed loudly, "Climbed to a high position, started playing charades, dishonest?"

Chen Ling also laughed, and rubbed the brim of the police hat in his hand, "It's cold in winter, so I bought plaster to treat my wife's arthritis."

"She is at home on Sunday, so you will send her there yourself. Your junior sister has also been transferred back to this city from other provincial agencies." The man looked at him meaningfully, "She took the initiative to ask for transfer for you."

Chen Ling remained silent, "Junior Sister has been clinging to me, and when she gets married, I will be relieved."

The man noticed his prevarication and asked jokingly, "When will you settle down? Do you have someone you like?"

He pursed his lips, showing lines of laughter, and remained silent.

The man sighed, "Your junior sister knows, I'm afraid she will be sad."

Chen Ling avoided this topic, and changed the topic, "A fraud case in Zhang Sheng's jurisdiction, please inform..."

The man raised his hand to stop him from continuing, "Do you understand the difference between the frontline and official career? On the frontline battlefield, you instinctively believe that he is sneaky and suspected of being a criminal. You can track him down, and you would rather arrest a thousand by mistake than miss a single person who endangers society." However, in the official career, if your words and deeds, a decision, or an idea are unsatisfactory, your colleagues who are eyeing you will overthrow your position in a second."

Chen Ling's heart suddenly became cold.

Guo Aiqi is a teacher and belongs to the provincial leadership team. Currently, more than 100 staff at the bureau level are basically his students.

When Chen Ling was awarded first-class merit for destroying factories at the border, it was Guo Aiqi who personally put on the uniform epaulettes for him.

He knows Guo Aiqi's political style best.

It is often impossible to smooth things over and preach at the beginning.

Sure enough, Guo Ai pointed out to him earnestly, "You have no basis for arresting Mrs. Chen forcibly, and she sued you back. It's dirty that you and Shen Zhen have an affair that no one knows, and that's why you're so aggressive in helping her out. Yours There is always a stain in life, you understand."

Chen Ling is still not ready to give up, "You know who I am. Although Chen Zhiyun is my second elder brother, I will never allow him to protect his relatives. The hidden information I have, Ni Ying is absolutely suspected of hiring a murderer to cause injury. I must arrest him. She can't."

The man on the other side spoke softly and kindly, "The hidden information you have is the live video or the testimony of witnesses."

Chen Ling's expression froze.

"Based on one side of the story, it is not ruled out that they have grievances and intentional false accusations." He was half serious, half joking, "Chen Ling, I accused you of defrauding me of 100 million, but there is no personal or physical evidence. Is my accusation legally valid? The same is true for Mrs. Chen. You have worked at the grassroots level for 13 years, and the basis of filing and investigation is evidence, not that you pity the weak and make the strong guilty."

Guo Aiqi walked to the desk, turned his back to him, "Calm down, go back."

Chen Ling was silent for a long time, saluted, turned and left.
