Chapter 40: Blind Date

Fu Yuehui said with emotion: "It's not easy for you to be a police officer. Not to mention working overtime, you often have to stay up all night, and you can't take care of your wife and children."

Liao Qiu turned to the side and blinked hard a few times, turned around, and smiled to himself: "Someone has to do these things. As long as someone calls 110, we have to call the police. It's our duty, we're used to it."

Fu Yuehui nodded lightly with deep feeling: "I came today, firstly, to thank Liao Suo, you and Xiaohu, and secondly, I want to treat you to a meal."

"Don't be like this." Liao Qiu refused without thinking: "It's our responsibility and our job to go out to solve the case. We don't have to worry about eating. You see, I'm very busy here, so you can come and talk with me.

After talking for a while, I have to write reports as soon as possible on several cases I handled yesterday."

Fu Yuehui's attitude was very insistent: "It's just a meal, it won't take too long."

Liao Qiu waved his hand: "No, we have discipline."

"This has nothing to do with discipline." Fu Yuehui's face was full of sincerity: "Liao Suo, I treat you as a friend before I invite you to dinner. Don't worry! I know your rules. There are no abalone, lobster, or precious mountain products in this meal.

It’s all ordinary home-cooked food.”

He patted his chest vigorously: "You must drink when you eat, and please rest assured that there is absolutely no Moutai Lafite. Let's just drink Erguotou, the blue bottle kind. Isn't this considered a violation?"

Liao Qiu smiled: "I know you mean well, but I really can't leave..."

He immediately focused his attention on Hu Pingtao: "Well, Xiaohu just came back from the Anti-Narcotics Brigade today. He can't be counted as working a full day. You can just take the afternoon off and go to Boss Fu's place for dinner."

Hu Pingtao hesitated: "Director, why don't you go too! I'm alone..."

Liao Qiu raised his hand and interrupted what he was saying: "We need to improve the relationship between the police and the people. Since Boss Fu has said so, it would be inappropriate for us to refuse. Xiaohu, go ahead! Remember, don't drink too much.

Don't get drunk, just wait until you get drunk."

Having said that, Hu Pingtao had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, I'll go to the dormitory to change clothes now."



Soon, Hu Pingtao, dressed in casual clothes, followed Fu Yuehui out of the police station door and walked to the parking lot at the corner of the side street.

The space in the institute is limited, and outside vehicles are not allowed to enter and are parked outside.

As soon as I reached the corner of the street, I saw the old lady Zheng Yuxian walking towards me. There were two women beside her. Judging from their age and appearance, they should be mother and daughter.

"Xiaohu, what a coincidence!" Old Mrs. Zheng had a smile on her face, dense wrinkles lined the corners of her eyes, and she was happy from the bottom of her heart.

"Hello Aunt Zheng." Hu Pingtao greeted with a smile.

"I went to the police station to find you, and your director said that you were on a business trip these days, and he also said that you would be back today. No, it's better to come early than to come by chance."

"Haha, Aunt Zheng, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Of course something happened, and it's a good thing!" The old lady had a loud voice. She pulled over the young woman standing next to her and said, "Let me introduce to you, this is Xu Ling. And this person is from the sales department of our flour mill.

Chen Xiaoli, Sister Chen. Hahahaha, it’s up to me to get the timing right. No, we bumped into each other before we even arrived at the police station. Let’s take a walk, find a place to sit down, and let’s have a good chat.”

Hu Pingtao had some vague guesses in his mind, but he was not sure. He asked tentatively: "Aunt Zheng, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Zheng Yuxian has a cheerful personality and doesn't hide anything: "Xiaohu, you are a good young man, Lingling is also good. I am just pulling the strings in the middle to let you get to know each other."

Hu Pingtao suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Fu Yuehui, who was standing nearby, had long understood what was going on. He suppressed his laughter and did not interrupt, watching the scene with interest.

Xu Ling is good-looking, a little chubby, but not bloated. The lavender dress matches her figure very well, and her long hair hangs down both sides of her shoulders. She has specially dressed up, and her bright lipstick makes her look more beautiful.

.

Zheng Yuxian and Chen Xiaoli are old colleagues. The old lady is very enthusiastic, especially when it comes to serving as a month-in-law. Xu Ling graduated from college the year before and started working, and her mother has been paying attention to her personal problems. She has her own circle of friends.

But there was no suitable candidate. Relatives and friends helped introduce a few, but Xu Ling didn't like them.

Today was the day off at work, and Xu Ling didn't want to go out, but she couldn't bear the whispers in her ears from Mrs. Zheng Yuxian and her mother, so she had to come with them.

Nalan Xingde said it well: If life is only like the first time you meet.

As soon as they met, Xu Ling felt her eyes light up.

Hu Pingtao is eye-catching in both height and physique, and his handsome appearance is even more eye-catching. He is wearing a pair of light gray sports trousers and a pair of Li Ning running shoes, but they look a bit old. The black T-shirt on his upper body is well matched, and the whole

The person looks energetic.

Although she didn't know the other person's specific situation yet, Xu Ling felt somewhat willing just by looking at her appearance.

Chen Xiaoli knew her daughter's temperament well. Seeing Xu Ling lower her head slightly, with a blush on her cheeks, she knew that her daughter had a good impression of the young man introduced by Zheng Yuxian. So she looked at Hu Pingtao more cautiously, looking up and down.

I looked at it several times.

It's obviously not appropriate to stand on the roadside and talk about blind dates. It's better to find a place to sit down and talk. But Chen Xiaoli thinks it's better to understand the basic situation first, at least this handsome young man can pass his own test.

A middle-aged man with rich experience, Chen Xiaoli worked in the sales department of a flour mill. She met a lot of all kinds of people and had a unique vision.

She could tell at a glance that the T-shirt Hu Pingtao was wearing was a bargain, costing no more than fifty yuan at most.

Although the pants are "Puma", they are an old model from a few years ago.

The "Li Ning" running shoes on my feet have many wrinkles on the surface, and they should be replaced long ago.

The worst thing about this young man's wrist is that he has no watch.

Chen Xiaoli's eyes immediately became sharp. She asked directly: "Where do you work?"

The tone is very stiff, but in Chen Xiaoli's opinion, it is normal to ask this question. She will change her attitude based on the other party's answer, but judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that this young man named Hu Pingtao will not be able to pass his own preliminary examination, let alone become his own family member.

son in law.

There is no need to be nice to a "stranger" who has met face to face and will not have any interactions with him again.

Zheng Yuxian didn't notice Chen Xiaoli's abnormality. She smiled and answered before Hu Pingtao: "Xiaohu works at the police station and is a policeman."

Hu Pingtao quickly corrected: "Aunt Zheng, you made a mistake. I am an auxiliary police officer, not an official civilian police officer."

As soon as the words came out, Xu Ling, who was already feeling a little excited, suddenly raised her head, opened her beautiful lips, and said softly "Ah", she was surprised and a little at a loss.

Chen Xiaoli's face suddenly changed, but she controlled it very well. She didn't show any anger, but she just looked unnatural. She pursed her lips, bit her teeth hard, finally let go of her lips, and laughed twice: "

Haha... let's see, I haven't been feeling well lately and I have to go to the hospital later. Let's... um, let's talk some other time."

Old Mrs. Zheng Yuxian was stunned, and then her face showed an anxious look: "Old Chen, we have made a good deal, how can you..."

Hu Pingtao, who saw the clues, quickly interjected: "Aunt Chen, you'd better go to the hospital first! You won't be able to register if you're late. I'm usually at the police station. You can come over at any time if you are free."

After saying that, he turned around and said to Zheng Yuxian, who was confused: "Aunt Zheng, thank you. But I'm still young and don't want to think about it too early. Well... the art festival is coming soon, and the dance troupe still has a lot of time.

Practice and try to win the big prize."

Zheng Yuxian was a little confused, but she could see that neither party seemed to have that intention. She could only nod mechanically in agreement, and watched Hu Pingtao and Fu Yuehui say thank you and leave.

Watching them walk away, Chen Xiaoli's face sank: "Zheng Yuxian, we have been friends for so many years, what do you mean? Are you trying to trick me?"

She didn't call him "Old Zheng" like she usually did, but called him by his first name very rudely.

Zheng Yuxian's old face was full of confusion: "I...what's wrong with me?"

Chen Xiaoli crossed her arms across her chest and looked gloomy: "You have always said that this young man named Hu Pingtao is a policeman and is a good match for my family Lingling, so I followed you here to have a look. I didn't expect that things were not what you said.

. He is just an auxiliary police officer, a temporary worker without establishment."

"Hey... it's not what you think." Zheng Yuxian finally reacted and clapped her legs quickly to explain: "Although Xiaohu is an auxiliary police officer, he has already registered as a civil servant and will take the exam next month. I asked Liao from the police station

The director said that Xiaohu performed well and had a good work attitude."

"Hmph!" Chen Xiaoli sneered: "The civil service exam is not easy. Tens of thousands of people compete for one job. Can he do it? He shouldn't just say he can pass the exam! Besides, even if he has enough cultural knowledge, the interview will be difficult.

What should I do about that?"

"I don't know about others, but Xiaohu will definitely be able to survive." Zheng Yuxian got angry after what she said. She wanted to get angry but endured it. She patiently advised: "I asked Xiaohu about his age. He is younger than your Lingling family."

Years old. As the saying goes: Female juniors hold gold bricks."

"You are talking nonsense." Chen Xiaoli was a little angry: "My Lingling is a serious college graduate, and her current salary is more than 7,000 a month. Old Zheng, don't think that I don't know anything. The auxiliary police officer can only earn 5,000 a month.

You still have to go through qualifications, there is no establishment, and you may be laid off at any time... How could you push my Lingling into the fire pit?"

This was a bit too much, and Zheng Yuxian also raised her eyebrows and shouted: "How can you talk? Is this a fire pit? I'm giving your Lingling a chance. You don't even think about it, just based on Xiaohu's appearance, what kind of girl is she?
