Back to youth, the child's mother became a female president
Chapter 17: Friends of the Big Shot
Jiang Ruonan really felt that she didn't check the almanac before going out today. She came out of school in the afternoon to tutor Liangliang. Winter vacation is coming soon, and she has to go back to her hometown, so she won't have time to tutor him.
As a result, just as I was about to go back to school, I ran into Zhao Yun and Chen Zhilan, mother and daughter, at the corner. It would have been fine if I had just run into them, but it happened when Zhao Yun was scolding Chen Zhilan.
"Mom, can I have my pearl hairpin back?"
"No."
Chen Zhilan was not convinced, "But I have already apologized, why are you still holding on to me, Mom?"
"You don't even focus on studying now, but you still think about dressing up every day?"
"I just didn't take the physics test!"
"Really? Take a look at your homework these days. Almost all of it is unsatisfactory." Speaking of studying, Zhao Yun couldn't help but say: "When will you learn from Jiang Ruonan in terms of studying? I will give it back to you."
Chen Zhilan turned her head away and sneered: "She is just good at studying, what's so great about that? I am not inferior to her in other aspects. My personality is much better than hers!"
Zhao Yun was furious: "You..."
In the past, Chen Zhilan didn't care much about Jiang Ruonan and just chatted with her sisters occasionally, but now she really hates Jiang Ruonan a little.
The academic master who is so outstanding that others pale in comparison, according to teachers and elders.
The entrance to the vegetable market was the only exit, and Jiang Ruonan really had no way to avoid it. As soon as she raised her eyes, she met Chen Zhilan's eyes.
Their eyes met, and Jiang Ruonan lightly looked away.
Chen Zhilan, who was caught, bit her lip in shame and embarrassment, staring at the ground. It was Zhao Yun who saw her and greeted her: "Ruonan, why haven't you returned to school so late?"
She even looked at Jiang Ruonan on purpose, fearing that she had heard what she had just said.
Jiang Ruonan looked calm and answered her truthfully, "I'll be back soon." In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, she said in time, "Teacher Zhao, I'm leaving first."
"Okay." Zhao Yun nodded.
Looking at Jiang Ruonan's back as she walked away quickly, Zhao Yun glanced at her daughter without being servile or overbearing, "Look at her."
Chen Zhilan was also furious for a moment and retorted, "Then you can find Jiang Ruonan to be your daughter!" After that, she ran towards home.
……
There has been some unrest around Yixi Town recently.
The Public Security Bureau and police stations were on high alert because they had received a secret mission from above.
The people below were extremely curious, "No, Director Chen, who is this important person? Why is he so secretive and mobilizing so many troops? Could he be an international criminal who has fled to our small place out of fear of punishment?"
"Yes, I see that the neighboring counties have started to conduct private investigations."
"I'm not sure either, but this is the message passed down from level to level. We just have to follow the orders."
Chen Xiong, director of the Yixi Town Police Station, shook his head solemnly. He had just returned from a business trip when he encountered such a big incident and he hadn't figured it out yet.
The more remote the place, the more delayed the information is. Especially in poor counties like theirs, the information they get is processed by others and they can't get first-hand information at all.
It's really clueless. Not to mention flattery, even the smell of it is irritating.
Oh, it’s a headache.
……
Chen Xiong is also Chen Zhilan's father. When she ran home, she saw her father sitting on the sofa, smoking in a daze. She reached out her hand to disperse the smell. She was in a bad mood and complained, "Dad, why are you smoking again?"
Due to family planning reasons, Zhao Yun and his wife only have one daughter, Chen Zhilan, and they love her very much.
Especially Chen Xiong, a typical daughter-slave.
He immediately stood up to disperse the smoke around him and opened all the windows. "It's Dad's fault. Dad will go to the balcony right away."
Chen Zhilan looked unhappy, her mouth was full of anger, and she was still thinking about the scene just now.
She has always been a kind and generous girl in the eyes of her elders, and her grades are pretty good. But the incident with Jiang Ruonan turned her into a villain. It is impossible to say that she has no complaints against Jiang Ruonan in her heart, even though she was at fault first.
What's more, in her eyes, her mother, who had always loved her, directly cut off her pocket money, took away her hairpins, and asked her to write a self-criticism. She kept praising Jiang Ruonan and kept pointing out her mistakes.
No matter how difficult Jiang Ruonan's life is, she is still not satisfied with her current life.
Girls of this age have to be strong-willed, especially little girls like her who have a relatively well-off material and spiritual life. She has been spoiled by her family since she was a child, and she feels frustrated inside.
Chen Xiong, who came back from smoking on the balcony, obviously noticed that something was wrong with his daughter. He sat on the sofa with a bad look on his face, pulling the leaves of the potted plants.
He quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "Hey, little ancestor, who made daddy's precious daughter unhappy? Tell daddy."
Hearing her father's generous and doting voice, Chen Zhilan couldn't help but pout and her eyes turned red, which scared Chen Xiong, the crazy daughter-doting man.
"What's wrong? You're crying."
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's not a big deal, Daddy will help you settle it!"
Just as she finished speaking, Zhao Yun came back from shopping and happened to hear her husband Chen Xiong's words. She couldn't stand it and immediately frowned, "What are you trying to settle? You're a policeman, not a gangster!"
Chen Xiong, who was scolded, could only touch his nose awkwardly.
He loves his daughter, but he is also afraid of his wife.
When Chen Zhilan saw Zhao Yun coming back, she immediately ran back to her room crying and locked the door.
The 'bang' sound from the door cut off the communication with my parents.
Chen Xiong came over and took the dish from Zhao Yun, and asked her in confusion: "What happened?"
Zhao Yun rubbed her temples and sat on the sofa to rest. "What else can it be? Your daughter is in her rebellious phase."
"No way, Lanlan is very well behaved."
"I know she used to be very well behaved, but she's been acting really weird lately!"
"Elaborate."
"You know the little girl named Jiang Ruonan in our class, right?"
"Jiang Ruonan? Such a familiar name." He thought about it, but couldn't remember it, so he shook his head and said, "I don't quite remember it."
"It was the incident last year when your agency came to our school to resolve a dispute and beat someone up."
"Oh, now I remember. That little girl was beaten pretty badly."
"That's right. Everyone was shocked and scared at the time. They didn't dare to move."
"and then?"
Zhao Yun told him what had happened recently. Chen Xiong was deeply saddened after listening to her, but he cared about his wife and daughter, so he could only play peacemaker again.
He consoled her, "Little girls are very thoughtful and will be fine after a while. I will go and help her with her studies. Don't worry about it. She's already so tired at school."
"Yeah, thank you for your hard work." Thinking of her husband's business trip these days, Zhao Yun asked, "How is your work recently? You look a lot more haggard."
When Chen Xiong heard his wife's concern for him, he couldn't help but complain: "Oh, you don't know that the higher-ups insisted on finding a little girl named Jiang Nan. We have been investigating recently."
It was also the first time that Zhao Yun saw her husband with such a serious expression. She asked curiously, "Is it very important?"
Chen Xiong's expression suddenly changed, and his tone became heavier. "Yes, he came from Beijing. He said it was an order from the old military commander."
When Zhao Yun heard this, she was shocked and immediately realized the importance of the matter.
The capital city of Beijing? Or the legendary leader?
Their Yixi Town is just a small town in a remote mountain area, why are they looking for a little girl?
But many things are just said between the couple, and they understand each other tacitly. However, walls have ears, so they cannot say it too clearly to prevent it from being leaked.
She was also worried about her husband, "So...is there any progress?"
Chen Xiong smiled bitterly: "Wife, if there was progress, would I be so worried? Several cities around us are now working hard to investigate and conduct a carpet search. Everyone is worried."
Thinking of his progress, he sighed again: "Alas... there is still no sign at all. There are too few clues."
Seeing his wife sad about her work, Chen Xiong felt distressed and held Zhao Yun's hand: "You are tired from class today. I will cook dinner later. I will take care of the work."
Zhao Yun smiled and comforted her husband: "Yes, we will find it."
