Finding Li Yin’s medicine almost runs out, Fu Zhengzheng presses the bell on the bed head at once. At this moment, the ward door is opened.

Lin Jiao walks in.

“Miss Fu, you are here.”

Fu Zhengzheng responds smilingly, “I’ve been here for quite a while.”

The nurse enters to remove Li Yin’s syringe needle and then goes out.

Lin Jiao goes up quickly to press the back of Li Yin’s hand.

After the wound stabilizes, Fu Zhengzheng hands the peeled apple to Li Yin and then turns to Lin Jiao to say, “When Li Yin is hospitalized, you need to look after her every day. If you need any help, don’t hesitate to tell me. Don’t forget we’re friends too.”

“I will. Thank you.” Lin Jiao smiles.

Fu Zhengzheng tucks Li Yin in, slips a stack of money into her bed and then leaves.

She walks to the ward door and closes the door lightly. While she is closing the door, she knows Lin Jiao is watching her. Without lifting her head, she closes the door and leaves the hospital.

On the way, Fu Zhengzheng receives Lu Song’s call. She is told that the worker carrying fruit has been found. He admitted that he hit Fu Zhengzheng with the fruit basket intentionally that day and was instigated by Lin Jiao.

“Lin Jiao said she would take full responsibility if something happened. She gave the worker some money. He gambled much money away the other day and was lack of money to pay his debt.” Lu Song says.

“I got it.” Fu Zhengzheng hangs up the phone.

She never thought Lin Jiao would hate her so terribly!

Fu Zhengzheng’s mind is weighed down.

No wonder when she told Lin Jiao that she regarded her as a friend, there was no response in Lin Jiao’s eyes.

After getting out of the car, she calls Yang Tao and asks where he is.

Yang Tao says he is dealing with something outside and will go back to the office in half an hour. Fu Zhengzheng tells him that she will go to his office. Then she hangs up the phone and returns to her own department.

Zhang Lin has come and is reading the calendar. Fu Zhengzheng clears up her mood, walks to her and teases, “Are you looking for a free day to have a date?”

Zhang Lin is startled. Seeing Fu Zhengzheng, she smiles at once, “No date. I’m counting down my birthday. I can see my cousin on that day. It’s a pity that I haven’t found a suitable boyfriend for my cousin after choosing for so long time.”

Zhang Lin always mentions her cousin, which makes Fu Zhengzheng curious, “What does your cousin do?”

“My cousin is in the military.”

Hearing that, Fu Zhengzheng thinks of her brother and says, “It’s good for a female soldier to marry a military officer.”

Zhang Lin shakes her head at once, “My uncle and aunt don’t allow my cousin to marry a military officer. They think military officers are usually busy with work and can’t take care of the family. Besides, their jobs are a little dangerous. My cousin is their only child. They hope she can be transferred to civilian work in B City, find an easy job, marry a local good young man and live a peaceful life with them.”

Recalling that her brother also seldom comes back all the year round, Fu Zhengzheng can understand the idea of Zhang Lin’s uncle and aunt. She says smilingly then, “Now that your uncle and aunt don’t like young men with dangerous jobs, why did you want to introduce He Menghuai and Captain Yang to your cousin?”

Zhang Lin answers with disdain, “I think military officers and policemen are all cool and handsome. It’s safe to stand with them together. I don’t think my cousin doesn’t find a military officer as a boyfriend because of the objection of my uncle and aunt. She has a high taste. No one can catch her fancy unless he is as great as Captain Yang. But no matter who my cousin will marry, I only hope they can stay in B City so that we won’t have to travel far to visit each other, or it’ll be troublesome.”

Fu Zhengzheng laughs out.

Suddenly Zhang Lin whispers to her ear, “Sister Zhengzheng, I’ll share with you a secret. Actually, I once asked my cousin to introduce military officers to me.”

“Oh? You didn’t find your Mr. Right, either?”

Zhang Lin pouts her lips, “My cousin introduced one for me. It was a pity that my uncle and aunt had found that before we met. They scolded her severely. I think my uncle and aunt are stubborn. If everyone has the same thought as them, all soldiers will be single, right? Isn’t it good to be a soldier’s wife? How glorious! They are not patriotic at all. I don’t want to talk about it anymore. Each time I think of it, I feel upset.”

Zhang Lin sits down before the computer angrily. Fu Zhengzheng comforts her a little smilingly and then sits down before her own computer. When she guesses Yang Tao has probably come back, she is ready to stand up.

At this moment, Zhang Lin stands up too with a pile of materials, “By the way, I’ve found all the household registration materials that Captain Yang required. I’ll take them to him.”

Fu Zhengzheng stops her at once, “Well, let me take them to him so that I can be familiar with the way.”

Zhang Lin gives the materials to Fu Zhengzheng, “I just don’t want to run the errand.”

Fu Zhengzheng comes to Yang Tao’s office with the materials. Seeing the door open, she enters and closes the door.

Once seeing her, Yang Tao walks up to her.

He Menghuai is in his office too. When he sees Fu Zhengzheng come in, he winks deliberately at Yang Tao and pretends to stand up, “You opened the door as soon as you came here. It turns out that you have a date with a beautiful lady. Captain Yang, do I need to leave you two alone now?”

Yang Tao is about to tell him that it’s unnecessary, but Fu Zhengzheng breaks in while pointing to the bathroom, “Yes, you need. Go to the bathroom.”

“The bathroom is stinky. I won’t go there.” He Menghuai sits down.

Fu Zhengzheng taps He Menghuai’s head heavily with the material bag, “It seems that Qiubo isn’t skilled enough to teach you how to speak nicely.”

Hearing the name of Sun Qiubo, He Menghuai wears a fawning smile at once, “No, she is too skilled actually. For her, I’m only the Monkey King that can’t escape from the Five Finger Mountain.”

Yang Tao can’t be bothered to talk nonsense with He Menghuai. He takes the material bag from Fu Zhengzheng, looks and asks, “Zhengzheng, is there anything else?”

Fu Zhengzheng nods. Then He Menghuai stops being playful, carries a chair for her quickly and gives her a cup of water.

“Thank you.” Fu Zhengzheng takes the cup and sits down. Then she tells Yang Tao simply what Lu Song has found.

Although looking a little surprised, Yang Tao seems to have expected that, “Our guess seems to be true.”

Fu Zhengzheng nods and says, “Li Yin has pregnancy discomfort and is in the hospital. I visited her this noon. When I chatted with her, I found Lin Jiao eavesdropping on us outside the ward, so I set a trap for her.”

“What trap?” Yang Tao stares at her cautiously.

“I told Li Yin I would go to Village Lin with Xiaoyue to visit her dad’s grave on the Qingming Festival.”

“You mean…”

Fu Zhengzheng nods, “Lin Jiao doesn’t know we have suspected her. Now that she hates me so much, I think she won’t miss the chance.”

Yang Tao looks worried, “It will be troublesome if you go out of the city.”

“We can’t get the information we want if we don’t take a risk. Don’t worry. we still have time to prepare.”

He Menghuai breaks in, “I’ll send someone to tail after Lin Jiao and watch everything she does.”

Yang Tao nods and then He Menghuai steps out.

“Has Lin Jiao’s mobile phone been monitored?”

Yang Tao nods, “Yes, but nothing unusual has been found. She has the consciousness of counter-investigation. You must be very careful.”

“I will.” Finding Yang Tao still frowns, Fu Zhengzheng teases, “Are you worried about Xiaoyue’s safety?”

“Not exactly. I’m worried about both of you.” Yang Tao smiles unnaturally.

“In fact, I haven’t told Xiaoyue about it. I don’t want Xiaoyue to go there. A policewoman can be sent by the police office. Let her wear Xiaoyue’s clothes and a hat. Those persons with ulterior motives may not see through it.”

Yang Tao smiles, “I’m just thinking how to make the safest arrangements.”

Fu Zhengzheng nods and rises, “You can begin to make arrangements now. I’ll go back to the office. Let’s keep in contact.”

When walking to the door, she turns around and drops her eyes, “Actually, I really hope Lin Jiao can stop now. Today in the hospital, I told her that I regarded her as my friend. I don’t know how she thinks about it. She is so young and beautiful. I sincerely hope she can live a peaceful life in the future.”

After quite a while, Yang Tao responds, “Only herself can decide what kind of life she will live. Others can’t help her. At most, others can only give advice. You’ve done what you should do. It’s all up to her.”

Fu Zhengzheng smiles and goes out, without saying more.

What she said is true. Seeing from the surface, she has a favorable view of Lin Jiao. She hopes Lin Jiao can make a living with her own hands, marry a man, have a baby and enjoy her family life just like Li Yin.

She hopes Lin Jiao can know what kind of life course is right and return to the right path from the deviating track.

Because of Lin Jiao, Fu Zhengzheng isn’t in high spirits in the office. She doesn’t become cheerful until Han Siqi calls her and says he is waiting for her outside when it’s time to be off the duty.

Once getting into the car, she smiles at him, “Mr. Han, aren’t you busy today? You’ve come to pick me up on time.”

After she is done, Han Siqi doesn’t respond. Fu Zhengzheng feels strange. She turns her head sideways to look at him and finds him keeping a straight face.

“What’s wrong?” She asks confusedly.

Han Siqi ignores her and just concentrates on driving.

Looking at his facial expression, Fu Zhengzheng thinks for a while and guesses he probably knows what Lin Jiao has done and is scolding her in the heart. For fear that he will be distracted from driving, she keeps silent all the way until the car runs to the parking lot of Ten-Mile Sunshine Resort.

After the car is stopped, Han Siqi doesn’t get out of the car.

Fu Zhengzheng moves close to him and plucks at his clothes apologetically, “Well, don’t be angry anymore. Come on, smile.”

A slap!

Han Siqi pats her forehead hard.

Fu Zhengzheng touches her forehead, grins, pushes him and looks at him with an injured face, “Well, you’ve patted and scolded me. Can you stop being angry now?”

Han Siqi pinches her cheeks and stares at her with fierce eyes, “You know I’m worried about you. Why do you still conceal everything from me?”

He pinches her face just to pretend to teach her a lesson. Fu Zhengzheng knows that clearly, but she touches his hands and groans deliberately, “Ouch, you make me so painful!”

“If you conceal more things from me, you will be more painful!” Han Siqi says in this way, but he loosens his hands.

“I won’t conceal anything from you. I will confess everything to you tonight, OK?” Anyway, she is going to talk with him about Lin Jiao tonight.

Han Siqi taps her forehead and his eyes are full of sympathy.

Seeing Han Siqi less angry, Fu Zhengzheng rises slightly, holds his shoulder and kisses him on his lips quickly. When she is about to retract, Han Siqi holds her tightly.

“Rat-a-tat.” Someone is knocking on the window.
