Two Hundred and Twenty Seventh, the Return of the President (1)
For the next two days, Xia Guopeng never showed up in the ward again. Shen Min's emotions also gradually recovered, and after resting in bed, she was discharged from the hospital and recuperated at home.
Xia Xingchen was naturally worried about her going back to the countryside, and it was impossible for her to go back to Liangcheng with her current body, so after taking a few more days off, she settled her in the small rented house. She sleeps in a small bed by herself, and Bai Yeqing's bed is for her mother to sleep in.
Now, she is glad that this room was opened by him.
night.
Xia Xingchen was sitting on the sofa watching TV. The wiretapping scandal had become more and more serious these days. As a result of the trial, Yu Zeyao pushed the scapegoat out and escaped smoothly. Song Guoyao was not so relaxed.
He originally found a substitute for the dead ghost, but unfortunately, the dead ghost was unwilling to sit through the prison. As a result, he directly disclosed in the trial court that he was instructed by Song Guoyao to install the bug, and in order to reduce his sentence, he even submitted other more s material. As a result, Song Guoyao's image in front of the public has become worse and worse. The innocent words that were plausible before have now become the biggest lie and stimulated the nerves of the public. The people who once believed in him all felt that they were being tricked. For a while, angry college students took to the streets to demand that Vice President Yu immediately step down. Congress could not withstand the pressure and had to propose impeachment. As a result, before the impeachment started, Song Guoyao resigned hastily and voluntarily, and a farce came to an end. Song Guoyao's team also withdrew from the political arena.
Watching this play, Xia Xingchen also breathed a sigh of relief for him. For the time being, Yu Zeyao is the only opponent left. Yu Zeyao has many means, and although it will not be easy to fight against him, it is better than fighting against two people.
"Dabao, is Xiaobai coming back today?" Xia Dabai asked in his pajamas, covered with a blanket, leaning on her lap.
Tomorrow is the weekend, and there is no class, so he will play late.
"Yeah." Xia Xingchen looked at the time. It's already 10 o'clock at night. He must have gotten off the plane. It's just that I don't know if I will come to her. He is so busy.
I haven't seen you for five days...
However, it seems like a long time has passed.
"Dabao, I'm sleepy." Xia Dabai murmured, wrapped his arms around her neck, and climbed onto her body.
"Then mom will take you to sleep." Xia Xingchen turned off the TV, picked up Xia Dabai and walked into the bedroom. After settling him down, he went to another room to see his mother.
Shen Min's health is not good, she went to bed early.
Xia Xingchen poured her a glass of water and put it on the bedside, and adjusted the heater to a moderate temperature before gently taking her out the door.
I slept with the child for a while, and when I was about to fall asleep, the phone vibrated. It seemed that she had guessed who it was, or that she was always worried about it, so when the phone vibrated, she woke up. He grabbed the phone and saw the word 'Xiaobai' flashing on the screen. He couldn't help but smiled.
Quietly got up from the bed, closed the door, walked into the hall, and then picked up the phone.
"It took so long to answer the phone, are you asleep?" Bai Yeqing asked.
"...Afraid of disturbing the children, I only dare to pick it up in the living room." Xia Xingchen's voice was soft. Hearing the man's voice, he felt a little softer in his heart. She asked, "Are you back?"
"Not long after I arrived, I had a meeting in the office."
"Still in a meeting now?" Xia Xingchen felt distressed when he heard it. Don't these people need to sleep?
"I can't help it. There must be an end to the wiretapping. I won't go to your place tonight. "

"...Well." Xia Xingchen nodded, "Actually, you come to my place, and there is no place for you to sleep. My mother slept in your room. Do you have any objections?"
He has a cleanliness habit, so he must not like others to touch his things. However, there is no other way right now.
Bai Yeqing felt that this was not the point at all. His concern is: "Does this mean that you will not be able to sleep with me for a long time in the future?"
This man!
Sure enough, those are the only things I remember. She blushed, "That's it!"
Bai Yeqing was obviously depressed. Holding the phone, he didn't speak for a long time. Xia Xingchen wasn't sure what he was thinking, so he didn't speak. After a while, I heard him say: "I really want to eat your cooked noodles now."
"Now?" Xia Xingchen said: "But even if I make noodles now, if I send them to you, the noodles will be too mushy to eat. Otherwise, you can ask the chef in the kitchen to make it for you, and you will eat it soon." point?"
"I don't want to settle down." Bai Yeqing said to her directly: "You wait at home, I will ask Rui Gang to pick you up."
Xia Xingchen was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant by that. However, he has never been a person who likes to explain, and it was very busy there, so he hung up the phone without saying anything.
She was dizzy, afraid of disturbing his business, so she didn't call back the phone. However, this time, he didn't feel sleepy at all.
He asked Rui Gang to pick him up, so he couldn't... take her to the office, right?
Thinking of this, Xia Xingchen felt that he must be thinking too much. After all, that was his working place, how could he just let a woman in?
I was sitting on the sofa thinking wildly, but I didn't feel sleepy anyway, so I simply turned on the TV again to watch. His eyes glanced at the phone from time to time, waiting for Rui Gang's call.
Sure enough, 30 minutes later, Rui Gang called.
"Miss Xia, I'm downstairs now, come down."
Xia Xingchen asked: "Where are we going? Did he say anything?"
"Mr. President said let me take you to the White Feather Palace to find him."
He really let himself go to his office! Although Xia Xingchen found it unbelievable, he was still a little happy in his heart. Being able to see him working at such a close distance gave me a better understanding of him.
She quietly changed her clothes and went downstairs lightly. Along the way, I was thinking about whether I should dress appropriately at night, whether I am solemn or not. After all, White Feather Palace is no ordinary place.
After walking for a while, Rui Gang's car stopped outside the palace.
Then, he got out of the car, saluted the guard at the door, swiped his fingerprints, matched his facial features, and then the majestic gilt door slowly opened from the inside.
The White Feather Palace is a place that everyone flocks to. Not to mention country S, even tourists from abroad, every time they come to Kyoto, they have to pass by here to take a look and take pictures with the guards. Therefore, Xia Xingchen was extremely familiar with this palace and this door.
but……
This door opened in front of him, but it was the first time.
The car stopped on the green lawn, she pushed open the door and walked down, looking up at the palace, thinking that the person was looking up at her from the top floor at this moment, looking up at the subjects of the entire country S, she felt relieved and happy Agitation. That kind of pride is indescribable.
