Be in low spirits

After the New Year, Mr. and Mrs. Li and Kong Zhixi looked at the calendar to choose a date.

"We have to make do with how you guys rest, right?" Father Li felt that it wouldn't be difficult if he just looked at the almanac, but the difficult part was how to make do with how they take a holiday.

"Yeah." She propped her chin on the pen and nodded.

"You are not as busy as Xiao Li. The hard part is getting along with Xiao Li." Li's mother was also distressed.

"The main thing is to ask my parents, right?" I've chosen several dates, but I don't know which one to set.

"Your mother is easy to deal with, but your father and your sister are hard to deal with." Father Li sometimes feels that being a policeman is really not easy.

"You don't have to take a day off, just have dinner. How about asking Li Li tonight?"

"Will we have to wait until March or April?" Li's mother also knew that they were busy.

"How about I ask a few of them for their opinions first? There are only a few dates anyway." She couldn't make a choice for the time being.

Kong Zhixi found time to go home and talk about this matter. Kong Jianping nodded at the dinner table and said, "Moving to a new house is a big deal. We need to think about it carefully."

"Now it's in order to accommodate everyone's time, so his parents asked me to ask when he is free." It's rare for my mother to cook, and the mushrooms and vegetables are as delicious as always.

Maybe it was because she ate too fast, but Kong Zhixi felt nauseous and quickly got up and went to the bathroom to retch.

"Are you okay?" Kong's mother handed her a glass of water and patted her on the back. "It's okay. Maybe you ate too fast."

"Would you like your sister to show you?"

"Mom, she is a forensic doctor. Can she examine living people?" she said after rinsing her mouth.

"I know a little bit." Kong's mother felt that doctors had a lot in common.

"It's okay, I just ate a little fast." When the two came out of the bathroom, Kong Jianping asked, "Didn't Xiao Li say when he was free?"

"I haven't asked yet. He must be busy with a lot of things after the New Year. I haven't seen him home for two or three days." She wanted to continue eating, but when she looked at the dishes on the table, she suddenly lost her appetite.

When Kong Zhiting returned home, the three of them had already eaten. Kong's mother brought her some food that had been heated in the rice cooker and asked, "Are there any cases recently?"

"No, I have several experiments to report on." She washed her hands and ate.

"We are planning to move to a new house. I would like to ask when you are free. Will Xiao Jiang go with you?" Kong Zhixi asked as she sat opposite her.

"When is it scheduled?"

"Not decided yet. I want to make do with everyone's schedule."

"You definitely can't make it. It's just a meal, right? Just set a date and we can all go together."

"You have to ask." She understood the truth and should respect everyone's opinions.

"You are very similar to Mom in this respect."

"Your father and I are going for a walk. Please wash the dishes after you finish eating." Kong's mother went to the entrance to change her shoes and greeted Kong Jianping.

"Like what?" Kong Zhixi looked at her and asked.

"That's right, you allow everyone to be different and don't force them to meet a fixed standard, but you respect their every decision and support them." She told her seriously.

She looked at the person in front of her suspiciously, thinking that she must have been provoked by something. "Do you have anything to ask of me?"

"No, I discovered it during my relationship with Dr. Jiang."

"Discovered my personality traits?" She is not Dr. Jiang, so how did she discover that she was here?

"Yes, you never ask for anything from my brother-in-law. I'm different. I just hope that Dr. Jiang can become the kind of partner I want."

"What's that like?" It looked like they were having another fight.

"Have you ever asked my brother-in-law what he likes about you?" she stopped eating and asked curiously.

"I asked him once, but what he meant was love at first sight? Uh, was it that he felt I had vitality?" She couldn't quite remember his exact words.

"You have a healing power." She suddenly leaned forward.

"Ah? No?" She didn't feel that she loved life very much.

"Hey, hey, this is the most terrifying thing about you. You don't force everyone to live within a fixed standard, you allow any differences, and you support them, and then you heal them quietly without them even realizing it." She analyzed carefully.

"Why are you talking about this suddenly?" She came here to talk about moving to a new house, so why am I listening to her analyzing this?

"Doctor Jiang argued with me and made me understand the truth." She picked up the bowl and started eating again.

"Are you guys fighting again?" It seems like they've been fighting since they confirmed their relationship.

"We almost never don't quarrel." She was also a little upset.

"What are you talking about? Does he not like you? Why don't you consider breaking up?" She never understood what men and women in love were obsessed with.

"That won't work! I've persisted for so long, how can I fail at the last moment?" She never gives up on the people and things she has determined.

"There are many men out there. If you really can't get along with someone, there's no need to force it." She seldom advised people before, but after becoming a police officer, she often had to do this.

"I understand the reasoning, but isn't this a matter of reluctance?"

Kong Zhixi looked at the shrimp she was eating and felt sick again. Coming out of the bathroom, she said, "I didn't eat anything during the day. I have to go to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."

"Are you pregnant?" Kong Zhiting said casually.

"Impossible." She didn't think about it that way. After all, she had tried so many times before and failed. "You eat, I'm going home." She also prepared to go out.

"Don't you live at home?" Kong Zhiting still wanted to talk to this sister about her and Dr. Jiang.

"No, your brother-in-law has to go home tonight." She changed her shoes and went out.

"There are times when you still protect your brother-in-law." She was being sarcastic at the dinner table again.

After choosing a good day, she had to buy a lot of things to prepare. She was easily tired recently and her waist was aching. She always fell asleep when Li Li came home and didn't have time to discuss the move with him.

"Zhixi, you seem very tired lately. Is there something wrong?" He sat cross-legged on the ground, holding her hand and talking.

She woke up and asked, "Why are you staying up so late lately? Are you cold?" She leaned against the headboard with her hands, wiped her eyes, and turned on the bedside lamp.

"Did your parents ask you something? If you're too tired, I'll go talk to them."

"No, I guess my period is coming, so I feel tired. Did you take a shower?"

"Honey, I love you." He suddenly confessed to someone, which made people feel uneasy, and she suddenly sobered up. "What's wrong with you?" She grabbed his wrist in return.

"I'm telling you, don't be angry." He thought for a long time and still felt that he should confess, but when it came to really confessing the matter, he felt a little timid.

Hearing what he said, it seemed like something was wrong. "You tell me, I'll try my best." She also became uncertain.

"It's like this. There was a family member of a victim, 18 years old, whose parents died due to domestic violence, and then we were called in to rescue people. After we rescued this woman, she kept coming to the detachment to find me and depend on me, so I tried my best to avoid her." He stood up, sat on the edge of the bed and spoke.

"That's it?" She thought he had finished. If she continued to dwell on these things, her life would probably be endless.

"No. There were not many people in the team today as everyone was out on a mission. I received a call from her saying she wanted to commit suicide or something like that. Then I called their street office. In the evening, there was no one in the street office or the Women's Federation either, so I asked a female police officer in the team to go with me." He wanted to explain every detail clearly, fearing that she would think too much.

"And then?" This person's speech was always unclear and he seemed to be really guilty.

"Then we rushed to the scene. She was standing naked in the room. When she saw me, she rushed over to me. I quickly asked the female police officer to push her away. I promise, nothing happened." His eyes were sincere and a little nervous, looking forward to her next words.

"What do you want to happen?" She couldn't control what others thought, but she still had to find out whether her husband had cheated on her.

"I didn't. I just told you that nothing happened. If I don't have this much self-control, how can I be a police officer?" He was still nervous, afraid that she really thought something was wrong.

"Is that all? Just go to bed." She looked at the time. It was past midnight and she had to go to work tomorrow.

"No, aren't you angry?" He supported the person who was about to lie down, and felt that her attitude was not entirely right.

"Didn't anything happen? Go take a shower and go to bed." He just told her not to be angry, and now he asked her if she was angry.

"Everyone is throwing themselves at your husband, why aren't you angry at all?" He was afraid that she would be angry, but he was also afraid that she really wasn't angry.
