It’s Amelia Su’s number.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Although he drank, Hu Pingtao controlled it very well, and his tone of voice was no different from usual.

"It's nothing, I just miss you." The voice on the other end of the phone was still pleasant, but Su Xiaolin's mood was obviously a little low.

Hu Pingtao was very sensitive to this: "What happened?"

"I had some disputes with my colleagues about work matters." Su Xiaolin wrote lightly: "Is your work going well over there?"

"Not bad!" Hu Pingtao hesitated, his voice and mood became low again: "A colleague died..."

He briefly recounted what happened, omitting the process of arresting drug dealers and focusing on Zhang Qingbao's family.

Su Xiaolin was also wiping tears on the other end of the phone: "Why did you only donate two thousand? You should donate more."

A relieved smile appeared on Hu Pingtao's face: "I knew you would say that."

Su Xiaolin calmed down: "Does anyone need my help? I'm referring to his family. If you need help, just let me know."

"You can help me buy two sets of textbooks for junior high school and senior high school, and buy some review materials by the way." Hu Pingtao thought of Zhang Qingbao's two sons who are in junior high school: "I can teach them about learning."

Su Xiaolin agreed simply: "I'll buy it online and send it to you later."

"Thank you, wife!" Hu Pingtao smiled sincerely.

Su Xiaolin returned to her previous state and coquettishly said on the phone for a while: "You must pay attention to safety. There used to be only you and me at home, but now there is one more person."

Hu Pingtao smiled and nodded: "I understand. When I come back next time, I will bring you delicious food."

Su Xiaolin smiled and said: "I haven't finished the snacks I left last time. Are you trying to turn me into a pig?"

Without waiting for Hu Pingtao to answer, she said simply: "You have a good rest, I'm going to die."

Seeing Hu Pingtao put away the phone, Zhang Guangbei, who was a bit drunk, pointed at him and said with a smile: "Xiaohu, your wife is quite interesting."

The phone volume was very loud, and he could hear some of the conversation between the two of them.

Hu Pingtao muttered a few words, but he was thinking about other issues.

Su Xiaolin often called herself, mainly to greet her, and then to act coquettishly... The first sentence she said after the call today, her mood and tone were not quite right, something must have happened.

Hu Pingtao said hello to Zhang Guangbei, turned around and walked out of the office, and dialed Hu Biyuan's phone number in a secluded corner.

"Sister, did Linlin encounter any trouble over there?"

Hu Biyuan was confused by the question: "I don't know! I've been at work these days and I haven't seen her."

Hu Pingtao simply said what happened just now: "Linlin was not in a good mood on the phone. I can't leave in Xiluo. Sister, please go see her more when you are free!"

Hu Biyuan was very happy: "Okay! I'll call her now and ask her."

Hu Pingtao was a little worried, so he dialed the numbers of Liao Qiu, Lei Yue, Wang Xiongjie, Shi Hongwei and others. On the surface, it was to reminisce about old times, but in fact, he asked them to take more care of Su Xiaolin.

…

This night was destined to be uneventful - Su Xiaolin received several calls from acquaintances, all asking her what had happened and if she needed help.

Su Xiaolin rejected them all.

Her heart was filled with heat, and she no longer had the previous frustration and annoyance.

This afternoon, when Zhang Guangbei, the head of the border inspection station, walked into the office with Zhang Qingbao's widow and two children, Su Xiaolin, who was working in the unit, also received a call from Jiang Jie.

Jiang Jie claimed that her health condition had deteriorated, and she said a lot of scary words on the phone - there was a problem with her spine, her hands were numb, her feet were trembling, it was now difficult to even walk, and her eyesight was blurry.

Finally, she coyly made a request: She went to the hospital, and the doctor said that the situation was serious and required hospitalization. Five thousand yuan in compensation was far from enough. Considering that we are all colleagues, Su Xiaolin only needed another eight hundred thousand yuan in compensation.

For one dollar, the matter is over.

Su Xiaolin felt like she was about to explode with anger, so she hung up the phone without thinking.

Jiang Jie still kept calling, but she didn't answer the phone at all. Later, she got annoyed and turned off her phone.

Jiang Jie didn't show up until after get off work.

Back home, Su Xiaolin was still not in a good mood. Although her mother, Chen Jun, stewed her favorite old hen soup, Su Xiaolin just took a few sips and expressed that she had no appetite, so she went into the bedroom alone.

Next, was the phone call Hu Pingtao received.

Both her husband and Hu Biyuan cared about Su Xiaolin.

At this moment, her heart was filled with emotion. The negative emotions that had occupied her brain since the afternoon dissipated a lot, and her thinking became clearer.

Su Xiaolin knew that she was no longer the little girl she used to be. She was young, ignorant, and ignorant of the world... These labels had gradually faded or even disappeared as she got married and became a woman.

I am the wife of a policeman. There are some things that I must bear on my own.

This idea was not so much a sudden one as it was triggered by Hu Pingtao telling him about Zhang Qingbao's experience on the phone.

Looking out the window at the dark night, Su Xiaolin sat on a chair and murmured to herself.

"What's wrong with me?"

"You wanted to give me a ride, but you were careless."

"Besides, you have a body that's stronger than a pig, and you get sick and need to go to the hospital if you touch it casually? It's obvious that you want to blackmail me. Why?"

"I've never been afraid of trouble. Since you are in the first year of junior high school, don't blame me for being in the fifteenth year. Humph... Eight hundred thousand, thank you for saying so. I want to see what you can do to defraud me.

This money!"

…

In the early morning, Su Xiaolin drove to work as usual.

She dressed up specially today.

White tight trousers, and a pair of snow boots of the same color on the feet. The upper body is a white short jacket with a large open collar, and underneath is a cashmere pullover that shows off the waist. Under the high chest is a sharply shrinking waistline, which is full and plump.

There is a strong contrast between the buttocks.

Dark black smooth long hair, light blue eye shadow, eyelashes that are very long and curved upward, underneath are a pair of clear and beautiful eyes. Carefully drawn lip lines and specially selected red lipstick release a sexy and gorgeous look.

Her arrogance and unruliness.

She had read an article on her mobile phone before - whenever a woman is in a bad mood, she must put on exquisite makeup, put on her most beautiful clothes, and appear in a dazzling way.

Poisonous chicken soup sometimes works quite well.

Everyone in the workplace knew that Amelia Su was pretty. But it was really rare to see her in this state today... When she came out of the parking lot and walked into the office building, all the men either stared at her or looked back frequently.

Walking into the office, Su Xiaolin lowered her head and glanced at the women's watch on her wrist - eight fifty-five.

Gao Ruiqin and Cheng Yunxia both arrived early. Su Xiaolin smiled and greeted as usual: "Sister Gao, Sister Cheng, morning!"

Cheng Yunxia walked over quickly, held her arm, looked up and down, and exclaimed: "Linlin, what's wrong with you today? You're so beautifully dressed."

Gao Ruiqin also came forward with a cup of hot tea and said with a smile: "Did your husband come back today and dress up specially to welcome him? But Linlin, I have to remind you that you should pay attention to your dress according to the above instructions. Your makeup is too heavy today.

Occasionally it's okay, but if it happens every day and the director sees it, he will be called in for a talk."

"Thank you, Sister Gao." Su Xiaolin smiled and said, "I know what's appropriate."

After a pause, she asked seriously: "Is Jiang Jie here?"

Gao Ruiqin was a little surprised: "Isn't she injured and resting at home? She won't go to work these days."

Su Xiaolin said sarcastically: "Jiang Jie called me yesterday and asked for money. I guess she might come today."

Cheng Yunxia frowned: "Didn't you give her five thousand yuan last time? What more money do you need?"

Su Xiaolin reached out and picked up the cup on the table and said calmly: "She said five thousand yuan was not enough. She also said that she went to the hospital and the doctor said that the situation was serious and she had to be hospitalized."

Gao Ruiqin heard Su Xiaolin's voiceover and quickly asked: "How much does Jiang Jie want from you?"

Su Xiaolin raised her left hand, stretched out her thumb and index finger: "Eight hundred thousand."

Gao Ruiqin and Cheng Yunxia couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

"Is she crazy?" Cheng Yunxia was very angry: "There are so many, why doesn't she grab them?"

Just as she was talking, Jiang Jie walked in from outside. She happened to hear the last few words and asked without knowing what was going on: "What are you grabbing? Are you panic buying?"

Cheng Yunxia had a straightforward temperament. She turned to face Jiang Jie and asked with an unhappy expression: "What are you doing? Didn't the matter last time be resolved? Why are you still asking Linlin for money?"

Jiang Jie, who was putting her bag on the table, froze in her movements. Her expression became very unnatural, and a little anger was released in the depths of her eyes. She quickly controlled her emotions and forced out a smile: "I'm telling the truth.

.”

She walked to Su Xiaolin's desk with her bag and said seriously: "Linlin, I really didn't lie to you. I went to the hospital for a check-up that day, and the doctor said that there was a problem with my spine, caused by a violent collision. Don't look at me now

I can still walk, in fact, I can only walk upstairs. I took a taxi this morning, and I have to go to the hospital later. I got a specialist number yesterday, and I may have to be hospitalized today."

Su Xiaolin crossed her legs, raised her head, and asked calmly: "Tell me, where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Seeing her nonchalant look, Jiang Jie felt a little angry and replied casually: "My back hurts...it hurts a lot."

Amelia Su looked directly at her: "So you asked me for money?"

Jiang Jie was speechless for a while, and finally realized what she was doing, and shouted angrily: "...This...these are two different things."

They are indeed two different things, at least Jiang Jie thinks so.

There is never too much money.
