Li Yuanlang was stunned when he heard this last sentence, and he suddenly understood.

He understood and understood his wife's painstaking efforts.

I originally planned to question Bai Qing's biological status, but now it seems that Bai Qing does take a long-term view.

He himself felt inferior.

The two sons are two double insurances. No matter which one has a future, they are Li Yuanlang's children. Whether active or passive, they will inevitably have to keep the family running smoothly.

But once they become what they call ordinary people, their status in the family will decline. Because Qingqing and Li Xuan have a higher starting point than them, at least they are not short of money.

This point also applies to Han Yuanyuan.

It is easy to give Gu Yu and Gu Qingming the perception of being inferior to others, and they will never be able to hold their heads high.

However, once they make a breakthrough in their official career, they will raise their heads and be a good person.

Even though Li Yuanlang took care of him, it was difficult for him to agree with his heart that his bowl of water was even.

It was unfair to begin with. They had their mother to back them up, but the two brothers did not.

Inequality always runs through everyone and every family.

Among brothers and sisters, some are doing well, while others are not.

Each of the five fingers has its own length, so why should they be human?

Li Yuanlang fell silent, lowering his head and fidgeting with his chopsticks, leaving only a helpless sigh.

The atmosphere at the scene became extremely depressing and made people breathless.

Fortunately, Guyu and Qingming returned home, and Li Yuanlang was able to visit his two sons.

Both Gu Yu and Qingming have grown a lot taller. Gu Yu's character is no longer taciturn, but he is very talkative.

When Li Yuanlang asked him about his homework, he could answer it fluently.

In comparison, Gu Qingqing is a little worse than his brother.

From him, Li Yuanlang could feel Shui Tingyue's shadow more and more.

Regardless of appearance or personality, he is very similar to his mother.

It is Shui Tingyue's personality to be content with the situation and have no big pursuits.

Perhaps due to their blood relationship, the two sons did not feel alienated from Li Yuanlang because they often did not see each other.

Accompanying his son to study made Li Yuanlang rarely feel the responsibility of being a father and belonging to the family.

Two hours of companionship was a pleasure.

Time flies so fast, it's already past ten o'clock in the evening.

Li Yuanlang drank and called for a driver.

According to Bai Qing's wishes, Xiaolan was sent to pick him up.

In this case, Li Yuanlang's car would have to be placed here with Shui Qingzhang.

Moreover, he didn't want to trouble Xiaolan at such a late hour, so it would be more convenient to call a driver.

The Mercedes-Benz that Li Yuanlang drives is the cheapest car in his family and is worth hundreds of thousands on the market.

The driver rode a folding electric bicycle. He was a young man in his twenties, gentle and elegant.

He had already received the destination of Li Yuanlang on his mobile phone. The young man got into the driver's seat and said while fastening his seat belt: "Sir, I can only drive the car to Jingwei Road. It is a no-travel area and there are sentries there."

It’s stuck and I can’t get through.”

"Okay." Li Yuanlang sat in the back seat and nodded in agreement.

The young man looked at Li Yuanlang through the rearview mirror and murmured in his heart.

Who is this person? He dares to go to Jingwei Road.

There are usually few people in that place, but it is said that there is a high-ranking official living inside, who is the retired chief.

Start the car, step on the brake and shift to D. The young man releases the brake, the Mercedes-Benz starts slowly, turns the steering wheel and leaves the villa area.

Li Yuanlang leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to relax. The young man asked Li Yuanlang's permission to play soothing piano music.

With small bridges and flowing water, birds chirping and flowers fragrant, Li Yuanlang felt like he was in the wild. The creek was gurgling, the air was fresh, and he felt relaxed and comfortable, just like in a fairyland.

Listening to the mountains and flowing water, I can't help but think of a person.

That's right, it's Zheng Haixin.

All in all, I haven't seen her for more than a year.

I don't know where she is or how she is doing.

In his heart, Li Yuanlang owed her a lot for raising Zheng Li for several years and establishing a deep relationship with her.

In desperation, he handed Zheng Li over to Shui Qingzhang and left for a foreign country alone. He has not been heard from since.

You can all imagine how determined and reluctant she was to leave without hesitation.

Zheng Haixin originally expected to hand over Zheng Li to her, but Zheng Haixin's hope did not come true and instead she was hurt.

For so many years, Li Yuanlang has been pursuing an official career, looking glamorous, but who can understand the suffering behind the scenes? Who can understand, who can know.

Heaven is about to entrust this person with a great responsibility, and he must first work hard on his mind and body.

But with such a determination, Li Yuanlang felt tired and hard.

Thinking wildly, Li Yuanlang felt restless.

I opened my eyes and looked out the car window at the neon lights flashing and the brightly lit streets on both sides, feeling infinitely sad.

He really envied ordinary people who were happy, happy and comfortable, at least not as tired as he was.

It's not physical fatigue, it's mental fatigue.

Otherwise, he very much hopes that Gu Yu and Zheng Li will follow the path of ordinary people, even if they don't have good clothing, food, and wealth.

You can be at peace with the situation and live a free, easy and free life.

Chuzhong City at night is bustling with traffic, pedestrians, bright lights, and bustling.

Passing through the downtown area, Li Yuanlang watched the young men and women chasing and playing in the street, and his heart was filled with excitement.

More than half an hour later, the Mercedes-Benz stopped on the side of the road dozens of meters away from the checkpoint. The young man took off his seat belt, turned around and said to Li Yuanlang: "I can only send you here, I don't dare to drive forward."

"Thank you for your hard work, I will give you a good review."

"Thank you." The young man then opened the trunk, took out the folding bicycle, rode it and left quickly.

This distance was only a few dozen meters away, but Li Yuanlang still insisted on not driving and chose to walk back to Lu Linsong's home.

When you pass by the concierge, throw your car keys to the staff on duty and ask them to drive your car back.

That night, Li Yuanlang tossed and turned in bed, thinking about his conversation with Shui Qingzhang, unable to fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Li Yuanlang woke up relatively late, and Lu Linsong had already had breakfast.

Bai Qing accompanied Li Yuanlang to the restaurant and told him during the meal, "Dad asked me to pack your luggage for the noon train the day after tomorrow."

The main reason why he chose to take the train was because Lu Linsong had a bad heart, and taking off and landing by plane could easily cause symptoms such as panic and dizziness.

The train is much better. You can lie down and rest, which is very comfortable.

With Lu Linsong's identity and status, he is fully qualified to use the special train.

"So, the capital city has agreed to my father's participation in Zhang Hanqi's funeral?"

Bai Qing shook her head, "Dad didn't say anything. Going to the capital is my dad's decision long ago. He will take you to meet old comrades. Even if you can't participate, you must go this time."

"However, dad did answer the call from Beijing last night."

The stone in Li Yuanlang's heart fell to the ground. It was probably because of this phone call that his father-in-law made his final decision.

Since his father-in-law didn't take the initiative to call him over, he probably didn't want to reveal more details.

After dinner, Li Yuanlang had just walked out of the restaurant when Director Wang and Secretary Wu hurriedly came towards him.

With a signal from his eyes, Li Yuanlang followed the two of them towards Director Wang's office.

After sitting down, Director Wang said with a serious expression: "Comrade Yuen Long, did you come back last night and call for a driver?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Li Yuanlang was confused.

"Look at this." As he said that, Director Wang asked Secretary Wu to play a video.

The video showed that at about 10 o'clock last night, a middle-aged man in his forties was arguing with the traffic police on the central section of the city.

The man's attitude was extremely arrogant. He pointed at the traffic policeman and shouted: "Do you know who I am? If you dare to check me for drunk driving, let your leader come and tell me in person that you are not qualified!"

As for the conversation between the traffic police officers, they were polite and calm. They repeatedly emphasized that the middle-aged man would cooperate with them in investigating drunk driving.

Finally, Director Wang signaled Secretary Wu to press the pause button and freeze the scene on the middle-aged man's face.

"Comrade Yuen Long, do you see this person clearly? What do you think?"

Li Yuanlang stared hard with an expression of surprise, pointed at the person in the picture, and exclaimed, "Why does he look like me?"

"Yes." Director Wang nodded, "83% similar to you."

"I learned from the Chuzhong police that this person's surname is Chang, he is 45 years old, from Beijiang Province, and is an ordinary worker. He came to Chuzhong to attend the wedding of a friend's child, drank alcohol, and was returning to the hotel.

The black Mercedes-Benz he was riding in happened to be investigated for drunk driving."

"Under the influence of alcohol, he made rude remarks to the traffic police on duty and showed off his power. The whole process was filmed by onlookers and posted online."

"Chang was a passenger on the bus and was not driving under the influence. However, his arrogant and domineering appearance has caused an uproar on the Internet. Many netizens in the comment area unanimously agreed..."

At this point, Director Wang paused, and Secretary Wu also showed an uneasy expression.
