Chapter 51, an unfamiliar phone call

機器翻譯作品

"In my opinion, Jin Haiguo is too tactless. President Xin, you gave him face before asking for his consent. If you don't give him face, he won't even be able to get a stable salary in city a, " Sun Ping said.

"But now he's making things difficult for me. What do you think I should do? " Xin zimo pursed his thin lips and smiled faintly.

"City a doesn't need a mayor who doesn't know how to read people's faces... "

"So, I'll leave this matter to you. I believe you can do it flawlessly, " Xin Zimo said and frowned again. "It's best to make all the members of the Jin family disappear in front of my eyes. "

"However, Jin Haiguo has been an official for more than 20 years. It's more or less difficult to deal with. " Sun Ping looked troubled.

"He has his Zhang Liang plan, and I have my wall ladder. You have to remember one thing. In City A, who has the final say? " Xin Zimo said.

"understood. " Sun Ping was also a smart person.

After a few days, Chi Xue was discharged from the hospital. Du Anran wanted to visit her, but on second thought, Xin Zimo had promised her that he would not pursue Jin Shaonan's responsibility. If she went rashly now, it would inevitably arouse Chi Xue and Xin's mother's suspicion. It was better not to go.

With this thought, she turned the car around and headed to the news agency.

These days, she always felt a faint unease in her heart. She could not explain it clearly. She always felt that not only did Xin Zimo's hatred for the DU family not dissipate, but it was also getting deeper.

"Sister Anran, why are you so worried? " When Liu Wanwan saw Du Anran at the news agency, she could not help but ask with concern.

"I'm fine. I might not have slept well. " Du Anran was also afraid that others would notice something amiss, so she smiled slightly.

"Are you really not worried? " Liu Wanwan said, "did President Jin make you unhappy? " Liu Wanwan had always been cheerful and could not hold back her words. In front of Du Anran, she was even more unrestrained.

"First, he didn't ask me to work overtime, and second, he didn't deduct my bonus. Why did he bring President Jin into this? " Du Anran smiled.

"It's good that he's fine. " Liu Wanwan stopped asking and smiled.

"What are you talking about? Wanwan, have you finished planning your new topic? Why do you have time to chat? " Jin Shaonan walked over with a cup of coffee.

"speak of the devil. " Liu Wanwan stuck out her tongue and winked at du Anran. She quickly left with the document in her arms.

"Anran, have you finished writing your press release? " Jin Shaonan sat in front of her.

Du Anran pursed her lips. "I didn't finish it. Hit Me! "

"..."Jin Shaonan looked at the little woman in front of him, who was typing on the keyboard, and rolled his eyes at her with a faint smile. She really didn't put him in her eyes as the president. However, it was fine if she didn't put him in her eyes. He wouldn't bother with her.

"Well, I won't bother you anymore. Remember to get this press release out before you get off work. It's urgent. I'll treat you to dinner tonight, " Jin Shaonan said with a smile.

"The usual place? " Du Anran curved her lips, and her eyes were as bright as the stars and the moon.

"Yes, the usual time. "

"Okay, wait for me. "

After Jin Shaonan left, Du Anran enjoyed herself for a while. It was really not that tiring to be with him.

Du Anran typed for a while on the computer. The weather was very good today. The Autumn was crisp and the sun was particularly warm. She sometimes looked at the sky outside the window, and sometimes she was in a daze. She was not used to thinking about the past. Since she could still look forward to the future, why should she let the past fill in the present... ...

In the evening, she and Jin Shaonan had a pleasant dinner at the Moonlight restaurant. The two of them always had endless topics to talk about. From life to work, from leaders to friends, and when they had a good time, they were actually able to talk about astronomy and geography.

Du anran drank some wine as usual. After Jin Shaonan sent her to the Jin family's villa, he waved his hand and left. He wanted to move back in a while. Although it was a little far from where he worked, he could take care of his family and Du Anran.

The moonlight shone on Du Anran's light yellow dress, and it was hard to tell whether it was the moonlight or the color of the dress. After Jin Shaonan left the villa, Du Anran walked back to her room with the wall in her hand.

The lights in Uncle Jin's study were still on, and mother Zhang was already asleep. She looked at her mother's room, and the lights were off. She was probably asleep.

Du Anran stood in the yard and blew on the cool breeze for a while before she finally woke up a little. She was afraid of disturbing them, so she quietly walked to her room.

Just as she closed the door to her room, she suddenly received a strange phone call.

"Is it Du Anran? "

"Yes, what's the matter? "

"Miss Du, is your mother okay? "

Du Anran was suspicious for a moment, and she frowned. "Who are you? "

"I heard that drugs were found in your mother's necklace, and your mother must not have returned to the Jin family yet, right? "

"What did you say? ''

Du Anran panicked and sobered up. She ran into her mother's room with her phone in one hand and pushed the door open. As expected, there was no one there.

"Who are you exactly? "

"Of course I'm helping you. " The voice on the other end of the phone was low and bewitching. "She's at the police station now. The evidence is conclusive and there's no way to defend herself... "

"What exactly do you want? " Du Anran could tell that he had bad intentions and was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Miss Du, you still remember the bar next to the customs building, right? Since you remember, then come over. Don't make me wait for too long. "

The call ended and there was no more sound. Du Anran's vision suddenly went blank. The customs building... ... Wu Jiandong .. The scene from that night replayed in her mind. Sure enough, Wu Jiandong would not give up like that. He used the same trick as last time.

Although the other party's voice sounded a little hoarse, the shadow of Wu Jiandong still lingered in Du Anran's mind. She paced back and forth anxiously in the room. Who should she ask for help... ...

After a moment, she stopped in her tracks. It was better to look for Uncle Jin. Of course, she didn't dare to take the risk alone. After all, Uncle Jin had been an official for so many years, so he should be more than enough to deal with this kind of thing. With uncle Jin's help, no one would dare to make things difficult for them.

She quickly walked to Jin Haiguo's study. Fortunately, the light was still on.

As usual, she knocked on the door. Jin Haiguo answered, and Du Anran walked in.

"Uncle Jin, I need your help. It's urgent! "

Seeing du Anran's anxious look, Jin Haiguo hurriedly put down the book in his hand. "What's wrong? What happened? Tell me slowly. "

Du Anran told him the whole story of the phone call. After hearing it, Jin Haiguo was not as surprised as she had imagined. Instead, he was much calmer.

"Are you sure it's Wu Jiandong? " He had known Wu Jiandong for some time. Wu Jiandong was fast and efficient, and he was also very modest. How could he do such a thing... ...

Du Anran nodded repeatedly. "He has a criminal record. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so sure. "

Then, Du Anran told him about the incident at the customs. Although she omitted the unnecessary retelling, Jin Haiguo still understood it.

However, he remained silent. After thinking for a while, he said slowly, "this is a serious matter. Let me confirm it with a few friends first. "

"Uncle Jin, please think of a way... my mom is not back yet... " Du Anran became more anxious ...

"It's not that there's no way, but there are too many suspicious points. I have to confirm it before I can help you. "

"Uncle Jin, what I said is true. By the way, I have a recording, please wait... "

Du Anran was afraid that Jin Haiguo would not believe her, so she found the recording from the bar. She wanted to bury the incident forever, but Wu Jiandong would not shed tears until he saw the coffin. Therefore, when the evidence was clear in front of him, Jin Haiguo, who had always been skeptical, had to believe it.
