Officer Gao chuckled and said, "This kind of thing doesn’t need to be downplayed."
Shi Mei felt a bit embarrassed.
Although these were facts, they weren’t happening to her now.
What Ye Tiao was talking about were all Tang Wu’s past experiences, which couldn’t be found on her now.
"Right, no need to downplay it," Ye Tiao said, as if she found a like-minded person, "Just mention Tang Wu’s name, and who the hell wouldn’t recognize it, right? You haven’t been low-profile for a long time."
"Tang Wu?" Gao Lian was somewhat surprised.
Shi Mei also realized then that Ye Tiao had just mentioned the name Tang Wu.
Ye Tiao, startled herself, immediately leaned on Shi Mei and said, "I can’t do this, I’m feeling dizzy."
Soon, the three of them went their separate ways.
Shi Mei, leading Ye Tiao away, only told Gao Lian after walking three or four hundred meters there was a hotel, and then they parted ways.
Once they separated, Shi Mei smacked Ye Tiao on the butt, "Tang Wu, huh? That impressive?"
Ye Tiao cried out, leaning on her shoulder, looking pitiful, "I’m drunk, don’t hold it against me."
After bringing Ye Tiao home, Shi Mei thought for a moment and sent Gao Lian a message: Have you arrived at the hotel?
Gao Lian did not reply immediately, so Shi Mei went into the bathroom to freshen up.
When she came out, Gao Lian had replied.
[Officer Gao]: Just took a shower.
[Shi Mei]: When she drinks too much, she likes to spout nonsense, don’t believe her.
Officer Gao laughed as he dried his hair, seeing the message and quickly replied: Mm.
The next day, Tang Jingming’s flight was in the afternoon.
Ye Tiao was too lazy to move and simply gave him an address, telling him to take a taxi over.
When Tang Jingming arrived, Shi Mei was sitting on the couch with a face mask on, and upon seeing him, she didn’t care and just groped her way onto the couch.
Tang Jingming’s face was filled with emotion, "little cutie, I have finally seen you again, I missed you so much!"
"Your little cutie is applying a face mask, please don’t disturb." Shi Mei said with her head back against the couch, pointing to the vacant guest room, "I’ve bought new sheets and quilts for you, they’ve been washed. If you’re going to stay for a while, you can hang your clothes in there, but you’ll have to wash them yourself."
"No problem!" Tang Jingming valiantly patted his chest, "You can totally leave your laundry to me too, I used to wash my clothes every day in college!"
With the face mask on, Shi Mei stated, expressionless, "When you were in college, you also contributed a washing machine to the dormitory, don’t think I don’t know about it."
Tang Jingming retorted angrily, "That bastard Ye Tiao, why did she tell you everything!"
Ye Tiao just happened to come out of the door, yawning at the sight of Tang Jingming, "You’re here, huh? Go wash up and sleep, we’re getting up early tomorrow."
"We’re going to Tian’an Gate to watch the flag-raising, haven’t been there in many years," Ye Tiao said with a weary voice, "We need to get up at four in the morning, then go hiking."
Tang Jingming: "...You city folks really know how to complicate things."
But he didn’t dare complain and quickly shut himself in his room.
Gao Lian was waiting at the entrance of the community just after four in the morning. The rightful source is novel⟡fire.net
It was still dark, and a bit cold at this time. He wasn’t wearing much, and now he felt chilly, so he lit a cigarette to warm himself up.
As he was halfway through his smoke, a black Maybach approached in the distance, stretched, with 6 seats.
Gao Lian glanced at it, then looked away.
But unexpectedly, a man got out of the car.
Gao Lian’s eyes narrowed, wasn’t that... Shi Mei’s ex-husband?
