When Xue Yan went out, he bumped into a man wearing a familiar black trench coat. There was an ambiguous indifference about him, and his whole person seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gloom – this… wasn’t he the recently popular colonel in the military region, Yue Qingci?

What was he doing here?

All Xue Yan could think of was Jiang Xiaochuan.

He vaguely remembered seeing this person in the hospital last time.

He stopped and turned around to look at Yue Qingci’s back. Yue Qingci seemed to have sensed something. He suddenly stopped and looked back at Xue Yan.

In the corridor, two strangers who were supposed to pass each other stopped.

Yue Qingci’s eyes were very indifferent. He raised his lips and asked casually: “Xue Yan from the Central Commission for Disciplinary Inspection?” He asked knowingly.

Xue Yan immediately felt Yue Qingci’s hostility, but this hostility came out of nowhere. Xue Yan had no idea what kind of hatred he had with Yue Qingci, and he didn’t even know if he had inadvertently offended this powerful man, but he just couldn’t remember it – if he remembered correctly, he had never seen Yue Qingci on other occasions.

“Is there anything wrong with Colonel Yue?”

Yue Qingci put his hands in his windbreaker and said with a smile: “I just want to remind you that it is none of my business to say, but some people cannot be investigated. As long as many things are done, you have to pay the price.”

“If it’s for those things, even if I pay the price, what’s the big deal? Colonel Yue is worrying too much.”

Xue Yan probably knew what Yue Qingci was talking about. It could be the person Xue Yan was investigating, had something to do with Yue Qingci, and the man was warning him.

However, Xue Yan had not had many cases on his hands recently, so Yue Qingci’s warning came out of nowhere.

Yue Qingci narrowed his eyes, suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes, simply curved his mouth, turned around, and walked inside.

Was it Jiang Xiaochuan?

Xue Yan looked at the direction he was going, filled with doubts.

The two times he saw Yue Qingci seemed to be related to Jiang Xiaochuan.

But – he knew that Jiang Xiaochuan was now a special official with a special confidentiality level in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and all his actions were reported. Xue Yan, as the person in charge of Jiang Xiaochuan’s information in the Municipal Party Committee, knew many things about Jiang Xiaochuan.

Jiang Xiaochuan never told the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection that he had some unclear relationships with people in the military region.

That vague sense of violation and crisis emerged just like that. Was there anything Jiang Xiaochuan is hiding from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection?

——Such a guess made him suddenly feel very complicated.

He couldn’t understand Jiang Xiaochuan. There were too many secrets hidden in this man.

The corrupt officials in his impression were not like this, but the good and honest officials in his impression were even less like this.

Jiang Xiaochuan’s existence was like a mystery from beginning to end.

.

However, for Yue Qingci, Jiang Xiaochuan’s existence had always been so clear, even real enough to touch.

But he didn’t dare.

Yue Qingci’s steps were very light, and there was almost no sound when he landed. He walked to the bench and saw that Jiang Xiaochuan had fallen asleep leaning on the back of the chair. The green security light in the corridor looked very eerie and dark, but he felt that at this moment, the atmosphere was so good that he had an indescribable illusion. This illusion forced him to reach out and touch Jiang Xiaochuan’s face.

But when his fingertips almost touched it, he suddenly retracted his hand and withdrew from the illusion.

Yue Qingci stood stiffly in front of Jiang Xiaochuan. Unfortunately, Jiang Xiaochuan was sleeping and could not see Yue Qingci’s eyes and emotions now.

He stood for a while, then moved away and came to the door of the ward, looking at the old Jiang Encheng sleeping inside.

Yue Qingci’s strong fingers gently placed on the doorknob, and then twisted it open, silently.

As he walked, the wind picked up the corners of his windbreaker, but Yue Qingci’s footsteps were not left behind. He slowly walked three steps away from the bed, looking down at Jiang Encheng who was still wearing an oxygen mask in a condescending manner.

It was an extreme indifference, just watching and standing for a long time.

Jiang Encheng didn’t know that there was such a person standing in front of his bed. He was just breathing slightly hard.

In Yue Qingci’s eyes, Jiang Encheng was like an absolute stranger.

He looked at Jiang Encheng’s face, as if he was recalling something, and turning around and walking out, Jiang Xiaochuan was still sleeping.

He stopped in front of him again. The thunder outside had stopped long ago and the rain had lightened up. However, at night, the rain was noisy.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he stretched out his hand, touched the cheek with his fingertips, and then casually brushed the slightly long black hair on Jiang Xiaochuan’s cheek. Yue Qingci gently retracted his hand, as if he had never done anything.

He took off his windbreaker and covered Jiang Xiaochuan.

Yue Qingci, wearing a dark blue waist-cinching shirt, turned around and walked through the corridor into the still raining night.

.

Outside the hospital, a black car was waiting for him.

“What’s going on with Lisson Group?”

“Still checking.”

“Then do it fast.”

Note: okaayyy, hmm… I’m not sure with the couple, but Yue Qingci sure is very charming bad man.
