Chapter 5 Accommodating without Bottom Line

After eating a few bites of the food, she finally tasted the plum wine. It didn't taste spicy at all, but was slightly sour and sweet, which suited her taste.

Meeting Xu Huaizheng's questioning gaze, she nodded: "Not bad."

"I knew you would like it." Xu Huaizheng curled his lips, "Do you have time recently? How about choosing a weekend to go back to Dongshan Town?"

"Maybe not." Duanmo put down the wine cup, picked up some green vegetables and put it into his mouth.

Even if the cause of Fu Hongbin's death is finally determined to be suicide, the cause of the suicide still needs to be found out. I'm afraid it will be very busy recently.

Xu Huaizheng swallowed what was in his mouth and said, "Isn't the case of murder and body dumping closed?"

"You know all this?"

"It was pushed from the Ping An Lotus City public account. It's hard not to know."

The case of murder and corpse disposal once caused heated discussion on the Internet. After the case was solved, Liancheng police released the news of the case through the public account and praised the special case team.

"Hey, when did you pay attention to Ping An Lotus City?"

"I know you started working as a police officer." Xu Huaizheng sighed, "Don't blame me for nagging, your job really makes people worry when they think about it."

Not only these, the police academy's official website, public accounts, school forums, and post bars are all within his scope of attention.

At that time, he couldn't appear directly in front of her, so in order to get more information about her, he even got into the group of police academy students, just to get a glimpse of her life.

"If you know you are nagging, then stop nagging." Duanmo teased, "I think you are nagging more than grandma now. You deserve to be punished!"

She said such tongue twisters that she couldn't help but laugh.

Xu Huaizheng couldn't help but smile on his face. He raised the wine in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll punish myself with one drink."

"One cup is not enough, at least three cups."

After their reunion, he lost his fierceness as a boy and always acted like a gentle brother in front of her, which made Duanmo forget her fear of him.

The image of the man with a cruel look on his face and punching someone to death gradually faded away. She felt that the brother who had no bottom line in accommodating her when she was a child was back.

"Three cups is three cups."

No matter what she said, Xu Huaizheng could not refuse as long as it was her request.

Duan Mo knew his drinking capacity and watched him drink the three glasses of wine without stopping him.

When he was a boy, he would always be called by his grandfather to have a few drinks with him during festivals. His grandfather was a light drinker and his stomach was slightly smoky after a few drinks, but his cold and white face did not change at all.

What's more, the alcohol content of this plum wine is not high. Needless to say, three glasses, even if he drinks this pot, he will not get drunk.

Putting down the wine cup, Xu Huaizheng brought her another dish: "Did you go to Pingcheng a few days ago?"

Although he was asking her, his tone was very firm, and he knew without even thinking that it was Chen Shujin who told him.

Duanmo didn't hide anything: "After the last case was settled, the leader gave me three days of vacation."

"You...are with him?"

"Well, we started dating on New Year's Day."

Falling in love is not a shameful thing. Don't treat him as an outsider and admit it openly.

Xu Huaizheng asked: "How can you meet your parents in such a short time?"

"It's good to be early." Duanmo took a sip of wine and said, "We can wait until we are settled before we meet. If his family doesn't like me and doesn't agree, it will be very troublesome."

Suppressing the sourness in his heart, Xu Huaizheng asked: "What now? What is his family's attitude towards you?"

"It's okay. It's just that his seniority in the family is a bit high and he doesn't adapt well." Duanmo felt extremely embarrassed when she thought of Lu Xuan asking Xiao Doudou to call her uncle and grandma.

"When Mrs. Lu gave birth to this younger son, the eldest daughter had already discussed marriage. This was only in his family. If you meet relatives in the clan, I'm afraid you will be even more uncomfortable."

"How do you know?" His words surprised Duan Mo.

"It's hard not to know about the Lu family in Pingcheng." Xu Huaizheng turned the wine cup in his hand and asked, "Didn't he tell you?"

Duanmo shook his head: "I only know that his family seems to be quite rich."

Xu Huaizheng said: "You can ask him."

"I don't want to ask." Duan Mo said casually, "Even if we get married in the future, we will definitely continue to stay in Liancheng. We are so far apart and living our own lives. How is their family doing with ours?

It doesn’t matter at all.”

"You can't say that." Xu Huaizheng folded his arms and leaned on the back of his chair, "What if he doesn't become a policeman in the future and returns to Pingcheng to take over the family affairs, will you follow him or not?"

"That won't happen one day." Duan Mo said without thinking, "If he was really willing to obey his family's arrangements, he would have listened long ago and would not have come to Liancheng."

"Who can say for sure what happens in a big family?" Xu Huaizheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Everyone envies having a good background, but they don't know that in such a family, many things happen out of their control.

.”

Duanmo heard a hint of helplessness in his words, so he asked: "Brother Huai Zheng, how were you... during your years in the Xu family?"

She had wanted to ask this for a long time, but because she was still a little afraid of him before, she never asked. The atmosphere was just right today, and the topic was brought to this topic again, so it was not surprising to ask.

"Good, not good either." Xu Huaizheng shook his head slightly, his tone somewhat unclear, "The living conditions are definitely better than before, but..."

He paused for a while and continued: "You also know that my status is quite embarrassing. The Xu family has a son and two daughters, who are my half-brothers and sisters. In their eyes... not only them, but also those of my uncles' families

The same goes for my brothers and sisters. In their eyes, I am just a bastard, a bastard who cannot stand up to the stage."

"Brother Huai Zheng, don't say that." When Duan Mo heard these words, his heart seemed to be gripped by something.

In her impression, Xu Huaizheng was a clean, cold, and even dust-free young man. It was because he was called a bastard that he started to become violent.

She was afraid of him from that time and always avoided him. She didn't even see him off when he left Dongshan Town. She just hid behind the courtyard gate and quietly watched him follow a few men in suits.

.

After meeting Liancheng again, the hostility in him almost disappeared, and he became much more easy-going.

Duanmo also thought that it was because he had grown up or something happened in the Xu family that he had such a big change.

"Don't worry, it's all over. Now I am the second young master of the Xu family and the future heir of the Xu family. No one dares to look down on me anymore. Those who once laughed at me and ridiculed me now don't even dare to look up to me.

Panting." Xu Huaizheng's lips revealed a hint of an unknown smile, "That's how people are, they support the high and push the low. When you are down, you want to kick you. When you are in a high position, it's like you have lost your memory. I am willing to be with you.
