official career

Zhou Qian returned home with red and swollen eyes. It was already very late. Usually at this time, most of the lights in the house would have been turned off, and Xie Fengmin had already taken the children to bed, but today the house was still brightly lit.

Zhou Qian adjusted her mood in the car and tried her best to behave as normal. She didn't want Xie Fengmin to know about Qin Feng and worry about him, and she didn't want her daughter to know that her father had been arrested.

Zhou Qian returned home with doubts, but saw Li Jing sitting on the sofa holding Niu Niu, while Xie Fengmin was talking to Li Jing.

"Li Jing, why are you here? When did you come?" Zhou Qian hurried over.

"You still have the nerve to ask me what happened? You came back so late today, and I came to see you this afternoon. I wanted to call you but she wouldn't let me, insisting that she couldn't disturb you at work. Look, you kept me waiting at home for the whole day." Xie Fengmin complained to Zhou Qian.

From Xie Fengmin's introduction, Zhou Qian understood what Li Jing came for, and also knew that Li Jing had not told Xie Fengmin about Qin Feng.

Zhou Qian gave Li Jing a grateful look, then said to Xie Fengmin, "Mom, let me take Niuniu to bed first. It's very late. Li Jing and I will go to the study to discuss some business matters."

After Zhou Qian finished speaking, she pulled Li Jing directly into the study and locked the door.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting at home for so long. Why didn't you call me when you arrived?" Zhou Qian asked.

"I know you must be trying to find a way to save Qin Feng. I can't disturb you. Besides, I... I can't help much, and I'm fine. It's just... just..." Li Jing suddenly didn't know what words to use when she said this.

"I know you came here to inquire about the situation because you are worried about him." Zhou Qian said what Li Jing didn't say.

"I...I..." Li Jing's eyes were a little flustered, and she continued, "Mr. Zhou, please don't misunderstand me. I...it's just...it's just...Qin Feng and I are just friends..."

"Okay, of course I know you are friends and old classmates. That's what I want to say. What are you thinking about? Sit down!" Zhou Qian invited Li Jing to sit down.

Seeing that Zhou Qian had no misunderstanding, Li Jing felt relieved. She sat down on the chair and asked Zhou Qian nervously, "How is it? Is Qin Feng in big trouble? He is not really breaking the law, is he? This is impossible. Someone must have framed him. Is there any way to save him?"

As soon as Li Jing opened her mouth, she asked Zhou Qian a series of questions. From Li Jing's nervousness, Zhou Qian could tell how worried Li Jing was about Qin Feng, and her worry seemed to be no less than hers.

Looking at Li Jing's nervous expression, Zhou Qian felt sad, but she didn't know how to tell Li Jing about Qin Feng, so she hesitated.

Seeing Zhou Qian's hesitation, Li Jing became even more nervous. She stood up from her chair, nervously pulled Zhou Qian's sleeve and asked, "Is it... is it... difficult? Is there really a problem? Is Qin Feng really... going to jail?"

"Please sit down first and talk while you sit down." Zhou Qian asked Li Jing to sit down again.

"The situation is indeed quite complicated, and Qin Feng's situation is also very dangerous. I have thought of many ways and also contacted many provincial leaders, but to no avail." Zhou Qian said truthfully.

"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch Qin Feng go to jail? It's impossible. With Qin Feng's character, he would never do anything illegal. At most, it's a minor disciplinary problem. He must have been framed, it must be..." Li Jing became very excited after hearing this. She held Zhou Qian's hand tightly and spoke incoherently.

Looking at Li Jing's appearance, Zhou Qian fell silent again.

Li Jing probably felt that her performance was a bit "too much", so she let go of her hand and forced herself to calm down: "Is there really no other way? I believe Qin Feng must be innocent."

"I just came back from the governor. The governor told me not to do anything and just wait for news at home. He will handle this matter," said Zhou Qian.

"Really? Now that the governor has said this, everything will be fine." Li Jing smiled happily.

"Li Jing, although the governor has expressed his position, he also said that this matter is difficult and he may not be able to solve the problem Qin Feng is facing this time, but the governor said he will try his best." Zhou Qian said again.

"This...this...what does this mean?" Li Jing's smile froze on her face again, and she asked Zhou Qian with some stuttering.

"In short... the situation Qin Feng is facing this time is very complicated and dangerous. The governor cannot guarantee that he can resolve the danger Qin Feng is facing, but the governor will do his best."

“Moreover, the level involved in this matter is very high. Even the governor has a hard time dealing with it, let alone those of us who are outside the circle.” Zhou Qian sighed.

Li Jing fell into deep silence. Although she said nothing, the worry and sadness in her eyes could not be concealed, and Zhou Qian saw it all.

"Then...what should we do now?" Li Jing asked Zhou Qian after a long time.

Zhou Qian shook her head: "There's nothing we can do. We can only follow what the governor said. Don't do anything. The more we do, the more mistakes we make. Just sit at home and wait for news."

"I'm sorry, I'm so useless. I can't help you at all..." Li Jing suddenly couldn't help crying.

Li Jing knew that she shouldn't cry in front of Zhou Qian, but she couldn't cry in front of Zhou Qian, but when she heard that Qin Feng was likely to go to jail, she couldn't hold back her tears.

"Don't say that. We are just ordinary people. His level is too high. We can't intervene." Zhou Qian held Li Jing's hand tightly and comforted Li Jing.

Obviously Zhou Qian was the one who should be comforted the most, but now it was not Li Jing who comforted Zhou Qian, but Zhou Qian who comforted Li Jing instead.

"Don't think too much. Things haven't reached the point of being at the end of one's rope. The governor just said that it's a bit difficult, but he didn't say there's no way out. Since the governor told us not to do anything and just wait for news at home, I believe the governor must have a way, otherwise he would never say so." Zhou Qian tried her best to comfort Li Jing. Her words were half true and half false. While comforting Li Jing, she was also comforting herself.

"Really?" Hope rekindled in Li Jing's eyes.

"Really, believe me, and also believe in Qin Feng, he will be fine. What kind of danger has he not experienced since he started working? Hasn't he always turned danger into safety? I believe this time will be no exception." Zhou Qian said to Li Jing with a smile and a relaxed look on her face.

Zhou Qian personally sent Li Jing to the car. Watching Li Jing driving away, Zhou Qian's eyes became complicated and her mood was also very complicated.

Zhou Qian is a woman with a sensitive and accurate sixth sense. Zhou Qian can feel Li Jing's deep love for Qin Feng, which Zhou Qian had never thought of before.
