Yuan Hong had to give in because even if she became a regular employee, she would still have to return to work in the health center and would still be led by An Jinghai.

If she wants to make progress, she must "sew clothes" for An Jinghai. She has the first time, so she doesn't care about the second time, but she can't let An Jinghai get it too easily, otherwise An Jinghai will soon get tired of it.

, her weights will become lighter and lighter, and she doesn't want that.

So Yuan Hong decided not to come over tomorrow, but she nodded repeatedly in front of An Jinghai, and even gave An Jinghai a wink before leaving.

Early the next morning, Xiaolan brought the old man's breakfast. The old man was very happy and told Xiaolan that his name was Li Dabai and that he was a retired cadre of the Xideng Public Security Bureau.

Li Dabai knew Cui Xi because he was a consultant to Yuan Lei's task force. The old man liked Cui Xi very much and liked this sunny and upright young man, so the two of them always chatted together in their free time, and also learned about Xiaolan from Cui Xi's mouth

, knowing that Xiaolan has superb acupuncture skills.

Li Dabai's cervical spondylosis was very serious recently, even affecting his walking. He looked at many places, but the results were not satisfactory, and then he remembered Xiaolan from Cui Xi.

The son took Li Dabai to Mingde and inquired, only to find out that Xiaolan had been transferred to the health center, so he named Xiaolan and asked her to treat his illness.

"Little girl, do you have a partner?" Li Dabai chatted with Xiaolan.

"I'm not a little girl anymore! Uncle Li, what do you want to eat tonight?" Xiaolan smiled and didn't want to talk about this topic.

"You kid, you're so shy! I'll eat whatever you cook at night, everything is delicious!" Li Dabai liked Xiaolan very much.

During the lunch break, Xiaolan found Cui Xi.

"Oh, I've been too busy these days and haven't even visited Xiaosong. I'm going to visit him this Sunday and buy him some delicious food!" Cui Xi said embarrassedly when she saw Xiaolan.

"Brother Xizi, do you know Li Dabai?"

"Li Dabai? Li Dabai? Are you talking about Li Dabai, the retired director of Xideng?"

"It should be him!"

"What? Do you know him?" Cui Xi was surprised.

"He's at the health center, here to treat cervical spondylosis!"

"Really? Take me to him quickly!" Cui Xi was very happy.

Cui Xi went to the health center to visit Li Dabai. Li Dabai was very happy to see him. He took Cui Xi's hand and said with a smile: "I was afraid that you were too busy, so I didn't call you. You won't blame me, right?"

"Of course it's your fault. You didn't inform me when you came to Mingde. You treat me like an outsider!" Cui Xi said with a smile.

"You brat, you've learned how to talk a lot! If you have nothing to do tonight, let us have a couple of cups!"

"Okay, I'll take you to my place. After you finish drinking, you can stay at my place and I'll send you back tomorrow morning!" Cui Xi invited warmly.

"That's not possible. Uncle Li is taking Chinese medicine, so he can't drink alcohol!" Xiao Lan quickly stopped him.

"Okay, okay, don't drink, just chat, okay, Doctor Che?" Li Dabai said with a smile.

…

When it was time to get off work in the evening, Cui Xi took Li Dabai to his dormitory.

"Is there any wine?" Li Dabai asked, looking at the side dishes on the table.

"Didn't you say you didn't want to drink?" Cui Xi said with a smile.

"I can't speak like a bird these days. You kid, hurry up and get me some wine!" Li Dabai was not polite at all.

"What do you think this is?" Cui Xi took out a bottle of Lumingchun liquor from his arms.

"You still understand me!" Li Dabai beamed.

The two year-old friends were eating, drinking, and chatting.

"I think Xiaolan is a good kid, and she is a good match for you!" Li Dabai made some random remarks.

"Old Director, you've really stumped me!" Cui Xi said with a smile.

"What's going on? Do you think Xiaolan is short? Let me tell you, a small weight weighs a thousand pounds. Xiaolan, this kid, has a lot of talent and is worthy of you!"

"Xiaolan is my sister, and her sworn sister Kang Jing and I are a couple. We are already engaged!"

"Oh, that's it! So does Xiaolan have a partner?"

"I just got divorced this year!"

"No wonder she didn't like to talk when I asked her today!"

"Old Director, has Yuan Lei been sentenced?"

"I got so angry when I mentioned this that I almost vomited blood!"

"what happened?"

"I don't know if Yuan Lei has any hard connection, but he was only sentenced to three and a half years!"

"What? Three and a half years? Isn't this nonsense?"

"Who says it's not the case! It's a pity that I retreated and it's hard to speak out. Otherwise, I would have to go to them to ask for an explanation!"

"No, I'll go to Xiden tomorrow to see what's going on!"

"It's useless! Liang Hui has searched for it several times, but it's useless!"

"The key is why the judgment was made? This is simply outrageous!"

"You can't control this matter at all, so don't stick your head out! Let me ask you, why did you come back when you were transferred to the criminal police team this time? Last time I met Liang Hui on the street, I asked him,

He hesitated and didn’t explain clearly!”

"I can't explain it! No matter what the reason is, when I come back, it's work wherever I go! Come on, old director, let's do it!"

"Done!"

…

Cui Xi was very angry when she heard the result of Yuan Lei's sentencing, and An Jinghai, who was waiting for Yuan Hong at home, was also very angry.

An Jinghai had been looking forward to Yuan Hong's arrival since it was dark, but he didn't come even if he waited left and right. This made him scratch his head and scratch his heart, and he felt itchy and had nowhere to go.

An Jinghai waited until midnight, but Yuan Hong didn't come either. An Jinghai was so angry that he threw the radio and cursed a lot of unpleasant things to himself.

Early the next morning, An Jinghai went to work angrily with dark circles under his eyes, hoping to settle the score with Yuan Hong, but Yuan Hong hadn't arrived yet.

After a while, a young man carrying a schoolbag came. He found An Jinghai and said crisply: "My old lady asked me to ask you for a leave. She wanted to sew clothes yesterday, but she pricked her hand halfway, so

Let me ask you for a leave!"

After the young man finished speaking, he ran away without waiting for An Jinghai to say anything.

"I pricked my hand halfway? What do you mean? What the hell is this Yuan Hong girl trying to do with me?..." An Jinghai muttered to himself, puzzled.

An Jinghai didn't vent his anger last night, and Yuan Hong asked for leave again today. He was in a bad mood, his old face was very long, and when he talked to people, it was as if he had been shot.

While Xiao Lan was giving old director Li Dabai acupuncture, An Jinghai came over and said with a stern face: "Xiao Che, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy me a pack of cigarettes!"

"I'm doing acupuncture and I can't live without it. Find someone else!" Xiaolan was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Damn it! You've just been here for a few days, and you dare to directly contradict your superiors? I think you don't want to do it anymore! It's okay if you don't want to do it, but you won't be here tomorrow!" An Jinghai had a bad mouth.

"Comrade, take back what you just said! Then apologize to Dr. Che!" Before Xiaolan could speak, Li Dabai stared at An Jinghai and said coldly.

Li Dabai had his own aura, and his words gave people an irresistible majesty. An Jinghai wanted to fight back, but he still felt guilty, so he turned around and wanted to leave.
