Chapter 260 Lobbying
The next day, the sun did not come as promised, and the sky was filled with thick gray clouds, giving people a feeling that a storm was coming.
Pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, everyone was rushing to get to the location at the last minute to catch up with the rain.
Pei family.
Tong Li on the bed crossed her legs and adjusted her breathing. At dawn, she began to stop breathing and then slowly opened her eyes.
The moment she opened her eyes, she subconsciously turned her head to the side and found that the bedside was empty. It was the same as last night, and it was still the same now. When she touched it with her hand, the place felt cold. Obviously, the man didn't reply last night.
Home.
She wanted to wait for Pei Jiuyin to come back last night, but she forgot the time as soon as she meditated, and the next time she opened her eyes, it was the next day.
Tong Li stared at that spot for a few minutes, feeling slightly uncomfortable in her heart, as if she had been pricked by a needle. It wasn't painful or itchy, but it was a little uncomfortable.
She picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table and rummaged through the numbers and messages on it.
No.
The man who used to be so sticky didn't come back all night and didn't even leave a message?
Not normal.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Tong Li immediately called Pei Jiuyin and called twice in a row before the call was answered.
"Hey, Tongtong, I'm sorry, I was busy last night, so I didn't call to tell you for fear of disturbing your rest." The man on the other end of the phone sounded quite relaxed, but she still heard his hoarse voice.
The man seemed to have been awake all night.
Too busy to make a phone call?
Her intuition told her that things were not that simple.
"Did something happen?" Tong Li asked directly.
Pei Jiuyin's frightening alertness, she noticed it before he said anything?
He suppressed the strangeness in his heart and said lightly: "No, it's just some business dealings with the company. I can finish it today. I'll go to you for dinner later, okay?"
Tong Li's eyes darkened: "Well, then you should pay more attention to yourself."
Pei Jiuyin smiled, and his wife felt sorry for him: "Yes, I know."
The two chatted casually for a few words, and then something came over there about an emergency meeting.
Pei Jiuyin hurriedly hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Tong Li sat on the bed and thought deeply. She felt that Pei Jiuyin was hiding something from her.
But he didn't say...
Forget it, she shouldn't cause trouble for herself. If she needs help, he will ask for it.
Tong Li got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, then went down to have breakfast, and then went directly to the company after breakfast.
Seeing the gloomy weather in the car, she felt even more irritable.
I don't know if it's because of the weather, or because Pei Jiuyin didn't come back one night, or because he didn't tell the truth, or a combination of both.
Tong Li sighed heavily, forcing herself to throw away these irritating emotions.
The driver sent her downstairs to the company, but Tong Li sent her back and asked him to come back in the evening.
When she arrived at the floor where her company belonged, she saw from a distance that two more people were squatting at the door of her company. The difference from before was that these two people were wearing military green camouflage uniforms.
Two policemen came the day before yesterday, two soldiers came today, is it endless?
Tong Li walked over, and the two people guarding the door stood straight and motionless.
Even if she was standing here, they would turn a blind eye.
Tong Li glanced doubtfully and stepped in. As soon as she entered, she saw Xiao Lingling hiding in a corner of the front desk like a thief.
When she saw Tong Li coming, her eyes widened instantly, as if she had seen a savior, and she wailed for help: "Tongtong...Miss Tong, you are finally here."
She was so frightened last night that she couldn't sleep well all night, and when she came today she saw them waiting here, which scared her so much that she almost turned around and ran away.
Fortunately, the boss came over today, so she didn't have to bear the burden.
Woo woo woo...
Tong Li glanced at her: "What are you doing?"
Xiao Lingling didn't dare to say anything, and kept gushing inward, gesturing for her to look inside.
Tong Li walked inside and saw a man sitting on the sofa. The two looked at each other: "Is it you?"
Pei Lizheng stood up from the sofa and strode up to her. His expression was extremely serious and he got straight to the point: "Tong Li... I have something to talk to you about."
Yesterday, he waited all day but didn't get anyone. He was so angry that he almost destroyed the place.
If it wasn't an order from his superiors, why would he be so angry here and waste his whole day just because of this woman?
And are you sure this woman can be found?
It seems that she is not just an ordinary woman, what's the difference?
Tong Li looked him up and down: "What's the matter?"
She remembered that when they first met, this man didn't like her. What could make him condescend to come to her small place to ask for her help?
Pei Lizheng endured the discomfort and allowed himself to be looked at.
‘What’s going on?’ It’s so fucking ridiculous to talk about this matter. I don’t know what’s going on above, so I suddenly ordered him to assist in the investigation of the wig harming people.
This kind of thing is not his business, but the scope of this matter is too wide, and he must be involved. He didn't know why at first, until he saw Tong Li's information, he guessed it.
two.
Tong Li had previously dealt with two women who were mutilated by wigs, and the request above was very simple, that is, let him convince Tong Li to assist in this investigation and find the real culprit.
Oh, you also said that he was asked to investigate, but the investigation was nothing, it was just that he was asked to be a lobbyist.
Moreover, this woman didn't take him seriously at all. Who told them that he could persuade her just by showing up?
If you have this time, why not go directly to Pei Jiuyin?
Pei Li was muttering a lot of curse words in his mind, but in the end he had to lower his head and persuade her to help.
"It's just that wigs are causing harm to people. I hope you can find the culprit."
Tong Li frowned: It's the same thing again.
"Didn't I say that the other day? I'm busy and not free."
The muscles on Pei Lizheng's face twitched. He even came over to invite her angrily, but he still refused: "If you have anything to do, you can't just let it go first. This is about the lives of hundreds of people. We don't know what will happen next."
How many people suffered."
"Do you know what it means to sacrifice small righteousness for great righteousness? This is the obligation that every citizen of country A should fulfill."
There was an argument in the hall. Xiao Lingling, who was just watching the excitement, peeked in. She was so frightened that she felt panicked and short of breath. She quickly pulled her head back. The man was still so fierce, and she didn't know if the boss could withstand it.
"Obligation?" Tong Li chuckled.
What does it have to do with her?
"No time." Tong Li rolled her eyes at him, dropped these two words, and walked straight to her office.
These people love beauty, and comparing what wigs they wear has nothing to do with her. If they cherished their lives, they would not wear these wigs of unknown origin.
Being rejected was something that was expected. This woman was very arrogant. Pei Lizheng turned around and followed Tong Li: "What do you want to do before you are willing to help me with this?"
Tong Li was still the same person: "No time."
