Abandoned after first marriage due to infertility, married into a wealthy family and had two childre

"Where did you say just now?"

"You said you brought me here single-handedly. You know me, but others don't. What will they think..."

"Ah."

Wei Hongye nodded and took another sip of tea: "I heard that this case went to the post joint meeting. Bai Xiaowei's opinions were different from those of other post prosecutors. She did not listen to other people's opinions and insisted on letting Wang Liangping go. .”

Wang Xinran nodded: "The post will record that I have transferred it. It is indeed the case."

"Then what's the point of her attending the joint post meeting? Just to go through the motions?" Wei Hongye asked.

Wang Xinran explained: "As far as I understand, the joint post meeting is just a case discussion meeting. When the post prosecutors encounter difficult and complex cases and are undecided, they will put the case to the post meeting to listen to other people's opinions and brainstorm, but in the end they still decide on the case. The organizer’s opinion shall prevail.”

Wei Hongye shook his head: "Xinran, you are too protective of Bai Xiaowei. On the same case, why is her opinion different from others? Is it unique or unconventional? Or does it have some other purpose?"

Wang Xinran opened his mouth and wanted to say that because other prosecutors only listened to cases, unlike the handlers, they had to go through a series of tasks such as reviewing files, interrogating, and visiting. There was a big difference between personal experience and hearing.

What's more, the handler will consider all aspects of the case, while other prosecutors are relatively relaxed, because the case is not their own, they can speak freely and do not need to take responsibility.

But in the end, Wang Xinran said nothing.

Just like she had differences of opinion with the leader, she believed that Bai Xiaowei had done nothing wrong because she knew Bai Xiaowei and personally led people to check Bai Xiaowei's property status. She read the files, monitored the situation, visited the neighbors, and got to know Wang The judgment was made after looking at the relationship status of Mr. Ryohei and his wife.

The leader believed that Bai Xiaowei had done something wrong. She went to the post joint meeting but did not listen to the opinions of others. She insisted on her own opinions and was eventually reported.

Is the leader wrong? From the leader's point of view, he is not wrong. What leaders dislike most are subordinates who disobey unified management and like to make their own decisions. In the leader's view, Bai Xiaowei's acting style is that of making independent decisions without knowing the importance.

Therefore, Wang Xinran did not insist on arguing with Wei Hongye, which would only make the leader dislike her and not be of much help to Bai Xiaowei.

Seeing that Wang Xinran no longer insisted on his opinion, Wei Hongye nodded with satisfaction: "It's getting late. You go back and rest. We will interview Bai Xiaowei tomorrow. Seeing that she has always been dedicated to her work, she will be given a warning and asked to write an inspection report. Come up."

Wang Xinran was startled and suddenly raised his head: "Director, Xiaowei is not showing favoritism..."

Wei Hongye put away his smile and looked at Wang Xinran. His tone was not harsh, but it made Wang Xinran feel oppressed inexplicably: "Even if she is not selfish, as a party member and cadre, her handling of mass relations is so poor and has such a bad impact. How can she be given Is this punishment still wrong?"

Seeing Wang Xinran's unwilling expression, Wei Hongye slowed down his tone: "You have to know that the anger of netizens cannot be calmed by us publishing the results of the investigation. Maybe even we will be scolded together, saying that our officials protect each other. Giving her a punishment is considered Each has a fifty-fifty game."

Wang Xinran remained silent, said no more, turned and walked out of Wei Hongye's office.

After driving all the way back to the procuratorate, she didn't realize until the car stopped at the gate that she had already gotten off work at this point and she should go home.

After hammering her head, Wang Xinran was about to turn the car around when she suddenly saw a familiar car passing by her car. She suspected that she was dazzled.

"Hi, Sister Xinran, I'm working overtime!"

Bai Xiaowei also saw Wang Xinran's car. She parked the car, lowered the window, and greeted Wang Xinran with a smile.

Looking at Bai Xiaowei's bright smile, Wang Xinran felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Why are you here at this hour to pick up something?"

Bai Xiaowei shook her head: "I'll work overtime."

Wang Xinran felt even more bitter: "Didn't Zhao Jian give you a holiday?"

"The holiday is granted, but there are still several cases that have not been concluded. We can't just leave them all to the clerk. That would be too irresponsible."

Wang Xinran tried his best to smile: "Go to the backyard to park the car first. I have something to tell you."

"okay."

After parking the car, Bai Xiaowei stood beside the car and waited for Wang Xinran.

Wang Xinran got out of the car and took a deep breath of the cool night air before feeling that the tightness in his chest was relieved.

"Leader, what are your instructions?"

Bai Xiaowei walked towards Wang Xinran, throwing the car keys up and down. Her beautiful face reflected the soft moonlight, showing a bit of charm that was not seen in the daytime.

"Xiaowei."

"Ok?"

"Has anyone ever told you that you are beautiful?"

"Well..." Bai Xiaowei pretended to think and nodded heavily, "There are quite a few, I can't count them on one hand. My boss also said that I will rely on my reputation to make a living in the future."

Wang Xinran was amused by Bai Xiaowei's relaxation, but the depression in his heart became clearer.

If a person does something wrong, no matter what the reason is or what kind of punishment he receives, he deserves it.

But a person who is selfless, dedicated, and sincere has to be punished. Even the lightest punishment makes her feel uncomfortable.

What made her most uncomfortable was that even though she was involved in it, she was unable to change anything.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Bai Xiaowei noticed something was wrong with Wang Xinran and asked with concern.

In fact, she could tell that Wang Xinran looked bad as soon as they met, otherwise she wouldn't deliberately make her laugh.

"Let's talk in your office." Wang Xinran exhaled heavily.

The two arrived at Bai Xiaowei's office. Bai Xiaowei poured boiled water for Wang Xinran: "Sister, I won't make tea for you. Drinking tea at night will affect your sleep."

Wang Xinran curled his lips: "Okay, I don't like drinking tea either."

"Sister, what do you want to say to me?" Bai Xiaowei didn't like beating around the bush. Seeing that Wang Xinran was hesitant to speak, Bai Xiaowei took the initiative to ask.

Wang Xinran blew on the scalding hot water, and the hot air covered her face. In the blur, Bai Xiaowei heard Wang Xinran's voice clearly coming into her ears: "You probably have nothing to say about the deputy director."

Bai Xiaowei's heart sank. Although Wang Xinran's words were vague, she understood clearly - she was going to be punished.

Even the mildest warning is prohibited from promotion for one year.

The Criminal Investigation Department lacks a deputy director, and many people are ready to make a move. Chen Shuyao has recommended Bai Xiaowei to the party group many times, both secretly and overtly. It is said that the party group meeting has already studied and approved it. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be an appointment document within a month or two at the latest. Come down.

However, at this critical juncture, she had to be punished.

Bai Xiaowei has no pursuit of fame and wealth. She simply likes to handle cases, to find the truth, to explore the truth, and to think about human nature in one case after another.

When emotions and legal principles collide, it is painful to choose, but in the end she will be very satisfied if she can achieve a balance between the two.

However, if she is punished for this, she wonders if she will be timid and hesitant again when she encounters conflicts between reason and law in the future, and will not dare to follow her heart and make the most appropriate decision like she does now.
