Thinking of this in his heart, Wan Hong immediately asked, "Secretary Xue, did you catch a cold because you stayed to take care of me that night?"

"I can't explain this clearly, but I did catch a cold the next day." Xue Yuan's eyes flashed and he smiled.

When Xue Yuan said this, Wan Hong immediately thought that Xue Yuan must have caught a cold because she slept on the sofa that night. Now in winter, the weather in Jiangzhou is cold. Xue Yuan covered her coat and went to bed that night. It would be strange if she could not catch a cold.

Thinking of this, Wan Hong became more and more embarrassed. She felt that Xue Yuan had a cold because of her. She couldn't help but say, "Secretary Xue, I'm really sorry. If you didn't stay to take care of me that night, you wouldn't have caught a cold."

"Chief Van, look at what you said. What does this have to do with you? I can only say that my body is too weak and I have neglected to exercise since I started working. Now my body is getting worse and worse. It seems that I have to exercise more in the future." Xue Yuan said.

Wan Hong nodded subconsciously and suddenly felt that Xue Yuan was quite understanding. The other party said this obviously because she didn't want to increase her guilt.

While Wan Hong was still stunned, Xue Yuan said again, "Chief Van, are you free at night? I want to invite you to dinner, but I don't know if Chief Van is willing to give him a favor."

"This..." Wan Hong hesitated.

"If Chief Van is not available, forget it." Xue Yuan smiled.

"I have time tonight, but even if I have dinner, I will treat Section Chief Xue. How can I let you treat you?" Wan Hong agreed after a moment of hesitation.

"It's the same for anyone to ask for it, so let's just say that, Chief Van, let's see you tonight." Xue Yuan said.

The two made an appointment to have dinner. After Xue Yuan hung up the phone, he showed a proud smile on his face. His illness was finally in vain. He stayed to take care of Wan Hong that night, which made him catch a cold and a fever. This was also considered a divine assist from God. Wan Hong could take the initiative to call to care about his situation, which shows that the relationship between the two has improved. In the next step, it would be easier for him to continue to get closer to Wan Hong.

Xue Yuan thought to himself, not knowing what he thought of, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

At this time, someone opened the door and came in outside. Xue Yuan looked up and saw that it was Wu Wenwen. He curled his lips, put away his cell phone, and prepared to go out for dinner with Wan Hong.

Wu Wenwen brought up a packed lunch box and placed it in front of Xue Yuan, "Your supper."

"I won't eat anymore." Xue Yuan shook his head and walked back to the bedroom, changed his clothes and planned to go out. He hadn't been at work these two days and had been wearing pajamas at home.

Wu Wenwen didn't care at first, until Xue Yuan changed his clothes and walked out, Wu Wenwen was stunned, "You want to go out?"

"Yes." Xue Yuan nodded.

"Where do you go?" Wu Wenwen frowned, "Have your illness cured?"

"Go out for a meal." Xue Yuan said casually.

"Eat? Who do you eat with?" Wu Wenwen asked immediately.

"Why are you asking so much? Why, who do I have to report to you when I have dinner with?" Xue Yuan said angrily.

"What's your attitude? You? I saw that you were sick and I got back from get off work early to get you food. Why don't you know the good people's hearts?" Wu Wenwen said angrily.

"Oh, I've been sick for several days, and I haven't seen you take care of me, let alone cook for me, I just know that I can pack fast food every day and come back for me to eat." Xue Yuan said sarcastically.

"I have been getting food early from get off work these two days, and I have come back to eat for you. Wouldn't it be taking care of you?" Wu Wenwen glared at Xue Yuan, "Don't you know that I am very busy as a deputy director now? It's because I am thinking that you are sick, I don't care about finishing a lot of work these two days, and I come back early every day."

"Haha, I'm still flattered to say that? That's right, the decent deputy director of the city TV station didn't even care about work. He came back from get off work early to pack fast food for me. I really deserve to be grateful." Xue Yuan laughed.

"Xue Yuan, if you have something to say, don't deliberately find fault. You know that I can't cook, you have to talk about this." Wu Wenwen said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Xue Yuan glanced at Wu Wenwen, "I didn't ask you to cook for me, but if you really take care of me, it's so convenient to go online now. You can check how to make soup online. Isn't it difficult for me to make soup?"

Wu Wenwen was speechless by Xue Yuan's words, turned his head angrily, and ignored Xue Yuan.

Seeing this, Xue Yuan tidied up his collar and went out directly.

Wu Wenwen looked at Xue Yuan's back. Although she was a little curious about who Xue Yuan was going to have dinner with, Wu Wenwen was too lazy to care too much. She and Xue Yuan were in their own state. Although they lived under the same roof, they had no real feelings for each other. The reason why Wu Wenwen wanted to maintain a nominal boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with Xue Yuan was nothing more than that she would have moved out long ago. As for herself, she has become the deputy director, as if she has opened up a new world and enjoyed the wonderful taste of power for the first time. The compliments and flattery of people around her also greatly satisfied her vanity.

At this moment, when Wu Wenwen saw Xue Yuan go out, he picked up his mobile phone and sent a few messages, and he also picked up his bag and went out for social activities.

Although the night in Jiangzhou is still cold in winter, the atmosphere of the New Year has become increasingly strong in the past two days. Some businesses have hung red lanterns on commercial streets in the city, and the streets on both sides have added a bit of festive atmosphere.

Qiao Liang and Ding Xiaoyun were eating hot pot on the second floor of a hot pot restaurant in the food street in the city. Looking at the people coming and going in the streets below, Qiao smiled and said, "It's the New Year, and there are more people returning from other places to their hometowns. I feel that there are more and more people shopping on the street."

"Yes, what we Chinese people pay most attention to is family reunion. The Spring Festival is the most important reunion day of the year. It is passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years of culture and carries a different meaning." Ding Xiaoyun smiled, "I have only been away from home for a few months now. I have already missed home and am eager to return home."

"After you say that, I miss Liangbei very much." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

"Why do you go back to Liangbei with me for a walk during the Chinese New Year this time?" Ding Xiaoyun blinked at Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang was a little moved when he heard this, and then shook his head and said, "I can't arrange it in time, otherwise I really want to go back to Liangbei to have a look."

"Time is a bit urgent." Ding Xiaoyun nodded, and as he spoke, Ding Xiaoyun's cell phone on the table sounded tinkling. Ding Xiaoyun glanced and said helplessly, "Mayor Chu... Oh, no, now we should call Director Chu, Director Chu sends me a message again."

"He?" Qiao Liang frowned, "What did he do to send you a message? He has been transferred away. Have you been still pestering you?"

"It's not considered a tangle. I just always send messages to me and send them every day, and the content is just a few words of concern back and forth." Ding Xiaoyun said.

"The ghost is not dispersed." Qiao Liang snorted. He did not hide his emotions in front of Ding Xiaoyun because there was no need.

Ding Xiaoyun smiled and said, "Forget it, don't worry about him. Anyway, I usually ignore his information. He is quite patient and has been persistent in sending messages to me every day."

"He is such a person, no matter what he does, he will not give up until he achieves his goal." Qiao Liang said.

"You say that, I feel like he is quite terrible." Ding Xiaoyun smiled.

"It was." Qiao Liang shook his head, "Fortunately, he has been transferred, and you don't have to keep in touch with him, so there is nothing to worry about."

Qiao Liang said this at this moment. He never expected that Chu Heng would kill another person to be transferred back to Jiangzhou in the future. Although the other party had already left, he still left a backup plan in Jiangzhou.

Qiao Liang and Ding Xiaoyun ate hot pot until after nine o'clock, and then planned to go back with Ding Xiaoyun. Halfway through, Qiao Liang's cell phone rang.

After looking at the telephone signal, Qiao Liang immediately picked up the phone when he saw that it was Sun Yong calling.

"Brother Qiao, are you free now?" Sun Yong asked at the other end of the phone.

"What's the matter?" Qiao Liang looked at Ding Xiaoyun beside him and asked.

"There is a new situation about Guan Zhitao's case, and I want to report it to you." Sun Yong said.

Qiao Liang heard this and looked at the time. If it weren't very urgent, Sun Yong wouldn't call him at this time. Qiao Liang couldn't help but nodded, "Where are you now, I'll go find you."

"I'm in the office now," said Sun Yong.

"Okay, I'll go there now." Qiao Liang nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Liang said helplessly to Ding Xiaoyun, "There will be something wrong, I'm afraid there is no way..."

"If you have something to do, go and do it first. Work is important." Ding Xiaoyun said with a smile.

Qiao Liang nodded, got off the bus halfway and took a taxi back to the city compound.

Sun Yong had already come out and waited in the corridor. Seeing Qiao Liang coming, Sun Yong came forward and said, "It won't affect your rest so late, right?"

"No." Qiao Liang smiled and looked at Sun Yong, "You haven't been home yet, right?"

"No, I just came back from searching for clues outside." Sun Yong said.

Qiao Liang patted Sun Yong on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work, I'm still running outside for the New Year."

"What's the matter? As long as the case can be handled well, I can't eat, drink or sleep." Sun Yong laughed.

The two of them walked into the office while talking. Sun Yong handed Qiao Liang the temporary case file he had just sorted out.

Qiao Liang took it and looked at it. Gradually, Qiao Liang frowned slightly, looked up at Sun Yong, and asked, "Do you mean you want to attack this deputy director named Chang Zhenming?"

"That's right." Sun Yong nodded and said, "If you agree, I plan to take measures against Chang Zhenming tonight."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Liang gently knocked on the table, weighing the pros and cons.

Sun Yong didn't say anything at this time, and quietly waited for Qiao Liang to make a decision. If Qiao Liang agreed, Sun Yong would not plan to rest for the New Year. He was preparing to launch a surprise attack, using the unfinished building of Longxing Real Estate Company as a breakthrough point to find out Guan Zhitao's violation of discipline.
