"Aren't you watching too?" Chen Xi turned around and walked into the private room.

"Hello!" Pan Wen was in a hurry, and he couldn't say anything, so he followed Chen Xi to the private room.

Chen Xi sat kneeling on the tatami mats. He had long heard that this restaurant was very particular about both ingredients and cooking techniques, and the taste was also exceptional.It’s just that Chen Xi at this moment doesn’t have any appetite at all.

"The spectrum is really big. We've been waiting for almost half an hour, and the treater hasn't come yet." Pan Wen said impatiently.

"Who's calling him the mayor?" Chen Xi said calmly.

"Hmph, what's so great about the mayor."

While the two were chatting, the sliding door was opened.The woman in kimono knelt on the ground and opened the sliding door for the three guests behind her.The three guests walked into the private room one after another.

"I'm sorry, Officer Chen, to keep you waiting." The middle-aged man walking in front, wearing a well-tailored black suit, smiled broadly.

"No, we also..." Chen Xi was only in the middle of speaking, when he looked up and saw a familiar figure, he stopped abruptly.

Standing next to the mayor was a well-maintained middle-aged woman with a beautiful figure, not a bit of a fat figure of a woman her age.He was dressed in a white suit, with long hair tied behind his head.The facial features are correct and graceful.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, it's okay." Duan Ruiqing smiled softly.

"It's... okay..." Chen Xi didn't expect to meet her here today, and he was more surprised than he felt a sense of loss.

Before Chen Xi heard Duan Ruiqing mention that she has a cousin surnamed Tang who is in politics.It's just that I didn't expect that in a few years, the personnel changes in the political situation would be so great.

"Aunt, do you know each other?" Tang Ao was young and energetic in a military green Armani casual suit.It's just that the voice is still hoarse, but it sounds much clearer now.

"I know." Duan Ruiqing smiled dignifiedly and generously.

After the three sat down, Duan Ruiqing ordered some signature dishes of this restaurant as the host.A wide range of Japanese dishes, bright colors, make people mouth watering.

It's just that Chen Xi didn't have any appetite looking at these delicacies, so he just ate a few mouthfuls perfunctorily.

This time the mayor invited Chen Xi to dinner, the intention was obvious.I just want her to try her best not to have anything to do with her son in the handling of the case.

Chen Xi is also a person who distinguishes between public and private, but the difference between her and Qi Shengge is that she knows how to play tricks and act tactfully in the officialdom.

From Chen Xi's point of view, Tang Ao didn't have any suspicions.Knowing that the mayor is out of consideration for his political status, he came here to ask for something.Why not be a good friend by yourself.

"I have always kept a clear line between public and private, and I never take personal feelings into account when handling cases." Chen Xi put on a strict law-abiding appearance, and put a piece of ice in his wine cup with a small iron clip.

"Then..." The mayor was already an old fox, so he naturally saw that Chen Xi meant something.So naturally they didn't panic, but quietly waited for Chen Xi to finish speaking.

"It's just that Young Master Ling has no suspicions in the first place, so naturally he doesn't need my help." Chen Xi smiled very formally.

"Naturally, I'll toast Officer Chen." The mayor picked up the wine cup in front of him, and clinked glasses with Chen Xi.The mayor has been socializing outside these years, and he has always presented an approachable image, never putting on the mayor's airs.

"Okay, let's do it first as a respect." Chen Xi picked up the wine cup and drank it down in one gulp.Although Chen Xi was an unruly master, after all, the other party was the mayor of City C, so there were still some places where he had to be polite.

Chen Xi, who had eaten this meal, was very unhappy, and overtook cars all the way on the road.

"The surname Duan also came. I didn't expect them to be relatives." Pan Wen sat on the back seat, lit a cigarette boredly, and took a puff.

"The mayor is her cousin." Chen Xi couldn't help but tighten his hands on the steering wheel.

"It turns out that she has such a big background! It seems that it's a pity that you broke up." Pan Wen didn't notice Chen Xi's expression at all, and was still talking to himself, "If you don't break up and continue to be an underground lover or something, Maybe you are now the chief of the bureau."

Suddenly, the car picked up speed again, which made Pan Wen realize that Chen Xi was really angry.

"Hey hey hey! Drive slowly! You are fast and furious!" Pan Wen sat on the back seat, feeling as if he was about to be thrown out.

"Shut your mouth." Chen Xi said coldly, his eyes were stern.

It was rare for Pan Wen to see Chen Xi so angry, and it seemed that some jokes were still unacceptable, so he consciously closed his mouth.

After the speed of the car slowed down, Pan Wen saw that the road was full of feasting lights outside the window, and it was not the way home.

"Where is this going?" Pan Wen couldn't help asking.

"Go to the bar." Chen Xi replied while driving the car with full concentration.

At the beginning of the night, the business of the bar has not yet reached its peak. The owner of Bar L, Yin Mo is sitting bored on the booth.For this bar, Yin Mo, the owner, is just a false name, but such a false name is unknown to others.Everyone thought she was the owner of this bar, young and promising with a successful career.

Yin Mo watched the crowd increase little by little, feeling somewhat relieved in his heart, and the red wine in the glass also swayed accordingly.Seeing a familiar figure suddenly appear at the door, Yin Mo stood up involuntarily.

I still remember that when Chen Xi appeared in front of him for the first time, he was so drunk.She was still a college student at the time, and it seemed that she had lost her love, so she used alcohol to relieve her worries.

Yin Mo has been by his own Gege's side for these years, and has already become immune to human emotions.However, when she saw Chen Xi, her heart throbbed a little.Is it because I have human emotions again, I can't say it myself.

Yin Mo knows that talking about feelings with humans is fruitless, and this was confirmed once when she first became a vampire.At that time, she only liked men and wanted to be a good wife and mother.However, after the other party knew that he was a vampire, he found a large group of people to burn him to death.From then on, Yin Mo no longer believed in so-called love.

"It's really early today." Yin Mo looked at the visitor with a smile, and gestured towards the bar.

The bartender at the bar is a young man with sharp eyes and ears, and knows that the person who comes is a regular customer of the boss.Immediately, he made a glass of Manhattan that this regular customer usually ordered, and delivered it to the regular customer.

"Thank you." Chen Xi took the wine glass and placed it on the table.

"Who is this?" Yin Mo asked, seeing a handsomely dressed woman standing beside Chen Xi.

"My cousin, just came back from studying abroad." Chen Xi said without raising his head.

"Hello, my name is Pan Wen." Pan Wen stretched out his hand and said.

"Hello." Yin Mo smiled, stretched out his hand and shook the other party.

A few people chatted for a while, and then began to drink.Tonight Chen Xi intends to get drunk and drink one after another.After a while, there were more than ten empty wine bottles on the table.

"What happened to her today?" Yin Mo looked at Pan Wen and asked.

"I saw my old lover." Pan Wen took a sip of wine, his mind was on the woman on the dance floor.

Yin Mo didn't answer, but just quietly looked at this woman who drank wine like plain water.
