Prohibition of losing contact

When Zhou Qingbai woke up, it was already bright outside the window.

He was lying alone on the hard bench in the mediation room, Pei You was no longer by his side, replaced by an old coat rolled into a towel.

Zhou Qingbai turned over in a daze, the old blanket that had been covered on his body at some time slipped off a corner, and fell danglingly.

The aroma of white tea lingering around him disappeared without a trace at some point, leaving only a choking smell of smoke oil. Zhou Qingbai frowned sleepily, stretched out his arms to cover his eyes, and blocked the light from the window .

He realized that the small wounds on his body had been properly treated, but the hangover was really uncomfortable all night, Zhou Qingbai had a headache and dry throat, and when he was confused, there was only one thought in his mind.

Where is Pei You, he thought.

Zhou Qingbai didn't feel anything when he was by Pei You's side last night, but when he opened his eyes and saw no one, he suddenly felt that the stool was too hard and the wall was too cold, his whole body hurt everywhere, and he was uncomfortable everywhere.

He couldn't tell what mood he was in, he just felt a slight sense of being abandoned, and his heart was sour and astringent.

Zhou Qingbai closed his eyes, relieved the drowsiness of waking up for a while, then pushed away the blanket, and sat up with his elbows propped up.

The blanket slid off his shoulders, only to reveal a dark suit jacket underneath. Zhou Qingbai looked down at the dress unexpectedly, and stretched out his hand to twist the collar.

Pei You is also true, Zhou Qingbai thought, he is an adult, and he doesn't need a replacement blanket.

He complained so much in his heart, but the expression on his face was obviously much better. There was a little smile on the corner of his lips, and he was no longer full of resentment like before.

After a night, the smell of Pei You's perfume on the coat was gone, replaced by the damp smell from the blanket, but Zhou Qingbai didn't dislike it very much, and wrapped the clothes around his body like a cloak.

He sat up from the bench and was about to send a message to Pei You, but before he could reach for his phone, he heard a light cough not far away.

Zhou Qingbai didn't notice anyone else in the room since he woke up. He was startled, and subconsciously raised his head to look in the direction of the sound, only to see a young woman sitting behind the large mediation table.

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

The woman was delicate and beautiful, with light makeup on her face and nude lip gloss. At first glance, she was gentle and gentle, but when Zhou Qingbai saw her, she seemed to be stabbed from behind, and sat up straight. When the body is lifted, the whole person is refreshed.

"Sister-in-law... sister-in-law?" Zhou Qingbai asked puzzledly, "Why is it you? Where's Pei You?"

"Ask someone else the first sentence?" Jiang Man raised her eyebrows meaningfully, and said with a smile, "I'll give you a chance to ask again."

Only then did Zhou Qingbai realize something, coughed a little embarrassedly, and said, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Man looks petite, gentle and harmless, but she is actually a ruthless person who can handle Zhou Cangshan. Zhou Qingbai is more than close to her and respects her even more, never daring to act too badly in front of her.

"Mr. Pei sent a message to Qingshan last night and told about your affairs. Your brother is worried, so I will come for him overnight." Jiang Man put down her legs, frowned slightly, and complained: "You It's too impulsive, everyone says that strong dragons don't overwhelm local snakes, you can tear yourself apart with him so easily, in case he colludes with local forces, you will suffer at least."

Zhou Qingbai knew he was wrong, and he was also afraid of being scolded by Zhou Cangshan again when he went back, so he hissed and obediently listened to the training with lowered eyebrows.

"Understood." Zhou Qingbai agreed in a low voice, his eyes couldn't help but wander around again, and asked again: "Where did he go? He ran away after filing the complaint?"

In a few words, Zhou Qingbai asked Pei You's whereabouts twice. Jiang Man looked amused, and stopped his appetite, and said bluntly: "He has gone to cooperate with the investigation."

"Cooperate with what investigation?" Zhou Qingbai frowned slightly, straightened his sleepy collar, and said eagerly: "I was the one who fought, not him."

"What's the rush?" Jiang Man stood up from the opposite side of the mediation table, walked around half of the table and sat next to Zhou Qingbai, and whispered, "Who said I came here to fight for you."

As Jiang Man spoke, she took out a document from her handbag and handed it to Zhou Qingbai, saying, "I'm here for this."

Zhou Qingbai blinked, and before he could react, he heard Jiang Man continue to say: "Mr. Pei informed Qingshan that he suspected that Liu Xin was carrying out money laundering activities in the name of public welfare projects. Your brother attaches great importance to this matter, so let me give it to you." He sent a paper power of attorney entrusting him with full authority to represent the matter."

"...Money laundering?" Zhou Qingbai fell asleep, as if skipping an episode. Yesterday Liu Xin was only at the stage of "forging documents to defraud funds", but today he turned into a vicious criminal.

"Yes." Jiang Man said, "Mr. Pei suspected that he was involved in drug trafficking and money laundering, so he reported the matter to him—the economic investigation has already gone to investigate the matter."

The impact of colluding with vicious forces to launder money is extremely bad. Zhou Cangshan is also afraid that there will be shadows of local forces in it, which will have a negative impact on the investigation, so he entrusts Jiang Man to take a trip, which can be regarded as coming here with the attitude of Qingshan to support the scene.

Qingshan is currently a well-known company to be listed on the market, and has a great influence. Jiang Man also came here to escort the two of them intermittently.

"As for your beating, since it didn't cause any bad effects, let it go." Jiang Man said, "Liu Xin is too busy to take care of himself, and has no time to pursue you."

Zhou Qingbai made a mental anticipation of "dare to do and dare to do" last night, but he didn't expect this matter to end so lightly. Hearing this, he still couldn't react, and looked down at his crumpled shirt.

"Then I can leave now?" Zhou Qingbai asked.

"—Not yet." A male voice suddenly came into the mediation room door and said with a smile, "You still have to wait for the sufferer."

Zhou Qingbai raised his head in wonder, only to see Lu Ye passing by the door, smiling and waving at him.

"Liu Xin is addicted to drugs, and he can't come out for the time being." Lu Ye stopped and explained kindly: "But you smashed two stereos, a monitor and There are a few wine vessels, so we have to wait for their boss to come to fix the damage and compensate for it."

It's nothing, Zhou Qingbai was already mentally prepared, he nodded, expressing his acceptance with a good attitude.

"Okay, the things have been delivered, and things are done. Since you all have nothing to do, then I'll go first." Jiang Man said, picked up her handbag and stood up, saying: "I still have something to do, so I won't wait for you." Alright, go back to Beijing by yourself after finishing your work here."

Jiang Man works in design and is busier than Zhou Cangshan on a daily basis. Zhou Qingbai nodded, stood up, and watched her go out.

When Jiang Man walked to the door, she suddenly seemed to remember something, and turned her head to look at Zhou Qingbai.

"That's right." Jiang Man's eyes flashed across Pei You's coat, and she remembered the scene she saw when she rushed to the Public Security Bureau overnight, so she looked at Zhou Qingbai meaningfully, and asked vaguely: "Xiao Qingbai, do you have anything to confess to me or your brother?"

Zhou Qingbai was stopped by her question, and instinctively felt that her attitude was a bit strange, so he patted his head and said in a daze, "What are you going to tell me?"

He looked innocent, so Jiang Man didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "That's all right."

Zhou Qingbai felt that there was something in her words, but he didn't want to understand what she was asking, so he watched her leave the police station with question marks in his chest.

It's still early, and it will only be 07:30 in the morning. Zhou Qingbai sat bored in the mediation room for a while, and couldn't help sending Pei You WeChat to play.

The message in the dialog box was still from last night. Zhou Qingbai was still a little scared when he remembered what happened yesterday, so he pointed his finger and sent an emoji of a kitten rolling into the dialog box.

In the dialog box, Pei You quickly replied with a question mark, Zhou Qingbai pursed his lips and smiled, typing with him.

"Did the investigation go well?" Zhou Qingbai asked, "When will you come back?"

"It's okay." Pei You didn't ask him how he knew where he was going, but just replied: "It should be soon, what's wrong?"

"Not really." Zhou Qingbai couldn't help but want to tease Pei You when he was bored. He lay down on the table, pursed his lips and suppressed a smile, and opened his eyes while talking nonsense: "The police said that the troubled master will come over later, if you don't come back Back me up, I'm afraid."

Pei You: "..."
