Life With You

Chapter 992 The calm before the storm

After George Sheng came back from Chengdu, he pushed back all the tasks he could. He never left Night City and stayed by Song Xi's side. In mid-June, the superiors officially appointed Commissioner Lin to join the Supervisory Committee to preside over Tan Yanbo's series of cases. Song Yuanqing reported Sheng Zhengrong's case.

This battle, after the two sides secretly competed for many rounds, finally kicked off in Night City.

The trial does not end in a day or two. It can take as short as one or two months or as long as half a year. It is a long and torturous process, but whether the winner is the king or the loser is whether the loser makes a comeback or the winner maintains stability. It is a bet that the outside world does not dare to bet on easily. After all, this game is too big. The bet is on wealth and future, honor and disgrace.

The situation above affects the whole body. At this important moment, no one dares to take action easily, so the only benefit that can be found may be the rare peace. Close your eyes and act as if nothing happened. The sun rises in the east every day. Xiluo, as long as you don't pay attention to it, you can live a peaceful and happy life.

The first target of the investigation after Commissioner Lin joined the Supervisory Committee was Tan Yanbo's series of cases. He planned to start with the officials Tan Yanbo had bitten before his death, but did not immediately touch Sheng Zhengrong. This was expected by some people. After all, the Sheng family There is also the Fang family above. If you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, it's hard to slap Fang Yaozong in the face as soon as he comes up.

Sheng Qianyu had already obtained the marriage certificate from Guan Yu in private, and was even more convinced that this was a way for the Guan family to delay the Sheng family. As long as Guan Changlin was willing to help, everything would be easy.

Although the trial of a case is not an immediate task, news comes from inside every now and then, such as which official has been found to have committed any illegal crime, which official has been exposed, and in just one month, he has been sent to prison. There are as many as a dozen officials drinking tea in the committee. These people are not limited to Zhuhai, but are distributed in various provinces and cities. It is a bottomless pit that gets bigger and bigger with each passing day.

For Sheng Zhengrong, not checking him for the time being was to give him a chance to take a breather, but something happened frequently, and who knew which person's words would bring down the Sheng family, so Sheng Zhengrong The days are like a knife licking blood, and I don’t dare to breathe.

The same goes for the Fang family. Although they have prepared for the worst and abandoned their soldiers to save their carriages, if Sheng Zhengrong is really involved in the supervisory committee, what will outsiders think of the Fang family? What do you think of him as your father-in-law? The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, the Sheng family is gone, and the next unlucky one is the Fang family.

During this period, Song Xi was in the best mood. Every few days, George Sheng would tell her about the good news from the Supervisory Committee. Which corrupt official had been sacked again? She would always sigh in her heart. Don't miss anything, as a human being, you should not do anything wrong.

At the end of July, George Sheng accompanied her for a prenatal check-up. By this time, Song Xi's belly was already obvious. The doctor said that the due date of delivery was October 10. Song Xi secretly said to George Sheng, Fortunately, I'm not a bachelor like you. Born on a festival day.

George Sheng's expression remained unchanged, his thin lips parted slightly, I'm not a bachelor now.

Song Xi spoke quickly and said immediately: Then you will be a bachelor for half your life. I don't want my son and daughter to suffer like this.

George Sheng said: My son doesn't matter, why does my daughter have so many relationships?

There was a strong smell of vinegar, as if someone had snatched his daughter away right now.

Song Xi gave a false warning, I'm telling you, from now on, sons and daughters will be able to have free love. Don't be a parent who has no vision.

What George Sheng was thinking was, just take care of it, just take care of it, but he didn't want to argue with Song Xi, so he simply didn't answer directly and changed the topic.

The two left the hospital and took a car to Diana's place. Yesterday everyone was chatting in the group. Ruan Boyan and Shao Yitong will have an engagement party in Night City soon. Today everyone has free time to get together and chat.

George Sheng held Song Xi's hand, and after walking a few steps into the restaurant, he heard a flat, inhuman voice, Xi'er, Xi'er.

Song Xi heard the news and went out, only to see the colorful Gangzi standing on the parrot stand, acting as the most eye-catching decoration in the restaurant.

When she saw Gangzi, she knew that Chang Jingle was definitely there. Song Xi walked over, picked up the pine nuts on the plate and handed it to it, saying hello with a smile, Hi, I haven't seen you in a few days. Did you miss me?

Gangzi smashed off the pine nut shells neatly, stared in the direction of Song Xi with a defiant look, and replied crisply: Xi'er, beauty, Xi'er, little cutie.

Song Xi couldn't hold it back, and immediately laughed out loud, Hey, I learned new words. You are also a cutie, and we are all cuties.

The clerk at the bar smiled and said: It has a particularly sweet mouth today and has already called everyone cute.

While Song Xi fed Gangzi snacks, he pointed at George Sheng and said, Gangzi, who is he?

Gangzi replied expressionlessly: Monk Qiao, Monk Qiao...

Song Xite wanted to laugh, but still glared and pretended to be serious and warned, Don't say that about him. He is my husband. If you say he is a monk, what will happen to me?

Gangzi said sweetly, Little cutie.

Song Xi is a cutie, and George Sheng is a monk. George Sheng pulled a face from the side and said lukewarmly: This bird can't learn anything good from Chang Jingle.

Song Xi couldn't help laughing, Don't be as knowledgeable as a bird.

Others tease cats and dogs, but when they come to Diana's place, they tease the parrots every time. After chatting with Gangzi for a while, George Sheng accompanied Song Xi upstairs.

At the usual place, the private room door opened, and a group of people inside were laughing and talking without knowing what they were saying. When they saw Song Xi and George Sheng, everyone greeted them one after another.

Song Xi had a big belly, and Diana said, My goddaughter and godson are here.

Han Chunmeng said: Hurry up, I haven't seen my brothers and sisters for two days.

Gu Dongxu wanted to beat her, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it and accept his fate. It was indeed his seniority.

Qiao Aiwen even picked up the shopping bag directly from the side, Here, give me a gift for my eldest nephew and niece.

Song Xi said: Stop buying things all the time.

Qiao Aiwen said: It's okay, just be happy.

Song Xi said: I'm afraid that you and Ling Yue will have a child, so I have to be prepared.

Qiao Aiwen withdrew her smile for a second, and Song Xi immediately smiled and said, Just kidding.

Ruan Boyan and Shao Yitong were also there, and everyone gathered around Song Xi for a while, followed by chatting about their recent engagement.

The women were chatting, but the men couldn't get in the way. George Sheng, Ruan Boyan and others were sitting on the sofa. Ruan Boyan whispered to George Sheng in the middle of the conversation: For this engagement, the Shao family has the Sheng family on the guest list. Tongtong asked me I’m asking for your and Xiaoxi’s opinions.”

The special details of the inside story may not be clear to outsiders, but the grievances between the Song family and the Sheng family are known to everyone in the upper circles, so it is not a secret.

George Sheng stared at Song Xi who was smiling happily a few meters away, and said aloud: The Shao family has nothing to do with the Sheng family, and our personal grudges don't have to drag the Shao family into line. Tell her not to worry, Xi and I It doesn’t matter.”
