MTL - Aunt Qin Save Me-Chapter 78
Qin Qianrou said something to comfort her, and repeatedly emphasized that she would pay more attention, which made Shen Yiqiu temporarily relieved. But the bread in her hand became difficult to swallow, and she felt like a big rock was pressed down in her heart, but she didn't want to increase Qin Qianrou's psychological pressure.
In the past two days, Qin Qianrou stayed at home most of the time, and Li Wan came to visit occasionally, and the two would chat for a while. Shen Yiqiu could feel that her sister's heart was not as calm as she had shown.
Probably worried about Lin Shuangzhi, Qin Qianrou's brows have never been completely relaxed since they left home at the weekend. As Shen Yiqiu thought about it, his movements were a little slower than usual. By the time she finished packing, it was already fifteen minutes later than usual.
Qin Qianrou took out her schoolbag from her room for her: "Shall I drive you today?"
"I can go by car. If there is no class in the first session, I usually go to the library first."
"The weather is bad outside today, and it will be cold waiting for the bus on the road."
Shen Yiqiu "snatched" the schoolbag from Qin Qianrou's hand with a smile, and looked out the window inadvertently.
"Didn't you have an appointment with Sister Li Wan today, you want to go out to find information? Take a rest, I don't want you to work hard." After speaking, Shen Yiqiu quickly kissed Qin Qianrou's cheek.
She simply walked to the door with her schoolbag neatly, put on her coat, changed her shoes, and then turned to look at Qin Qianrou.
"I'll pick you up after school."
"Okay, I'll wait for you after school."
Shen Yiqiu glanced at the time, it was indeed too late, and gave a hurried farewell kiss and left. Qin Qianrou had been standing by the door, waiting until she got into the elevator before returning to the house.
The house is still warm. But without Shen Yiqiu, the air seemed to be swept away in half at once, and it was much more empty.
**
Meet Li Wanyue at a coffee shop that is not very conspicuous but tastes good. Qin Qianrou took off her sunglasses and walked over. Li Wan had already ordered drinks according to her usual habits.
"Drink first, it's not time yet."
Qin Qianrou sat opposite Li Wan, the table was small, and the two were very close.
"How is the situation on the team leader's side?"
Li Wan sighed: "It's okay for now, but I haven't seen the leader in charge yet."
Qin Qianrou nodded, this matter has reached this stage, and it is not in a hurry for this day or two. The leaders in the province are definitely busy. As long as they don’t avoid them on purpose, it’s normal to wait a day or two and make more trips.
Qin Qianrou's coffee was also delivered, she stirred it a few times and took a sip: "Is today's news accurate?"
"It's a channel, but I feel like I can find a lot of things."
Yesterday, Li Wan received an anonymous call. The other party said that she had provided "criminal evidence" about the relevant leaders of the TV station, but she only trusted the columnists. The other party originally asked the person in charge of the column group to meet by name, but when Lin Shuangzhi was absent, Li Wan took the initiative to take over the matter.
"Still be vigilant, so many things have been crowded together recently, and it may not be peaceful."
Li Wan gave Qin Qianrou a slightly surprised look. In the past few years, they have run around, seen all kinds of strange things, and passed the danger several times. But she had never seen Qin Qianrou be so cautious as she is today.
"Have a family member, know to be careful?"
Li Wan smiled and said this joke, but she felt a little envious. It's really nice to have days to worry about.
"Shen Yiqiu told me today that she has feelings."
Qin Qianrou looked solemn and frowned slightly: "She said that what she sensed was related to me."
After she finished speaking, she paused, hesitated, and looked at Li Wan: "How about I go today."
Li Wan realized what she meant by what she said, and even when she got angry, she didn't even raise the volume consciously.
"Qianrou, what you said is not interesting. You said that we will fight side by side, and now you will leave me alone and go it alone. Not to mention how dangerous it is, even if it is Your danger, am I going to stand by and watch you go into danger?"
Although Li Wan has a hot temper, she is not aggressive. It's been a long time since she said so much in such a series of words, which shows that she is really anxious.
"Xiao Wan, don't get excited. I just don't want both of us to be in danger, so at least there is a chance."
Li Wan still refused: "I don't agree, in short, I won't let you take the risk alone."
Qin Qianrou sighed. Thinking from another perspective, if Li Wan faced such a situation, she would not hesitate to make the same choice.
After drinking coffee and eating a small cake, it is almost the appointed time.
Li Wan thought about it and said, "Take my car."
Qin Qianrou parked her car in the underground parking lot of a nearby shopping mall, which is not too far from Mengda, she thought about it and agreed.
The car drove for about twenty minutes, and Li Wan stopped by the roadside waiting for the call. According to yesterday's agreement, the other party should appear here in five minutes.
However, there was no one around who they were waiting for, but Li Wan's phone rang.
"I sent you an address, come here."
Li Wan said, "I made an appointment to meet here, but you changed your mind temporarily, do you not believe us or yourself?"
The other party did not have any excuses, and the tone was calm and unwavering: "I need to ensure my safety. If I can't guarantee my 100% safety, I will not disclose any news."
Li Wan was angry and helpless.
This is not the first time I have encountered this situation. Many people who choose to ask reporters to break the news are actually a bit complicated. They often don't have conclusive evidence in their hands, but they do have relevant materials, and they all resist going directly to the judicial authorities because they don't want their identities to be exposed, let alone get involved.
"Why, the place has changed again?" Qin Qianrou was not surprised by this.
Li Wan handed the phone to her, the address was still quite a distance away.
"Go, what else."
Li Wan started typing on her phone, Qin Qianrou knew that this was their old rule. Set up a scheduled email that will automatically be sent to the relevant people if they have any surprises.
Generally, this type of email will include today's itinerary, who to meet, the agreed place and so on. But until the last moment, they were reluctant to send this email.
After all, reporters also talk about word of mouth. If their tone is not rigorous enough, many people will not choose them next time.
Qin Qianrou watched Li Wan copy the email and set it up in Qin Qianrou's name. After thinking about it, she decided to send a message to Shen Yiqiu.
[I am going to work with Xiaowan now, and today I have an appointment with someone who knows. The location is a bit far from Mengda. If you can't pick you up after school, you don't have to wait for me, just go home. 】
Shen Yiqiu should be in class at the moment, and did not immediately reply to the message.
Li Wan started the car, feeling more serious than before.
"Why, report to your family?"
"It was originally planned to pick her up from school today. I was afraid that we would come back late and she would wait too long at the door."
Li Wan could imagine the picture of Shen Yiqiu standing foolishly in the wind waiting for Qin Qianrou, she couldn't help laughing: "The persistence of your child will indeed stand there and wait. ."
Qin Qianrou glanced at her, and Li Wan restrained a little.
"There's nothing wrong with being persistent, at least I have one heart for you, and it's not easy to change."
Either don't love it or love it to the end. Li Wan didn't understand her, although she was calm on the surface, it seemed that she was just talking about an ordinary love.
But she cares about Shen Yiqiu's affairs, tolerates everything, put down so many practical concerns and accepts her feelings. If this courage is not for deep love, there will be no other reasons.
The car was about to arrive at the destination, and Shen Yiqiu's reply came.
[I was in class just now. Are you going far away? Just the two of you? Stay safe and call me anytime. 】
[We're almost there, don't worry. 】
After sending this message, Qin Qianrou and Li Wan got out of the car together.
This is an abandoned factory building that used to be a suburban branch of a steel mill. Restructured for many years, the land is said to have been auctioned several times, and it is still idle.
"It's been a long time since I've been here, it's more desolate than before."
Li Wan and Qin Qianrou came here before. They just graduated that year and ran off with the seniors in the stage. The laid-off workers in the steel plant have asked for work to be resolved, but have never been able to get a satisfactory answer. In the end, a dozen or so people gathered here, first on hunger strikes, then on more extreme acts of self-mutilation.
What's more important, they did publicity in advance, and many passersby and some malicious foreign media were also present. It was a big mess for a time, and the scene was full of dangers. As people, they were naturally not qualified to go deep into the front line, so they could only fight for the seniors outside.
But this experience was enough to shock them for a long time, and they returned to the stage to continue producing the show. With the deepening of understanding, it was discovered that in the process of restructuring, the leaders of the steel plant used deception and oppression on the workers in order to achieve the restructuring targets assigned by their superiors as soon as possible.
On the one hand, they urged them to complete the formalities as soon as possible, on the other hand, they reduced the compensation amount because they voluntarily resigned. In this way, the workers who spent many years of youth in the steel factory were kicked into a precarious life with only poor living compensation.
This made them very emotional. If the problem was discovered earlier and the injustice in the restructuring process was exposed, the tragedy might not have happened. This is also the motivation for them to restore the truth: let the truth be seen as soon as possible to avoid more tragedies.
The phone rang soon, and Li Wan walked into the workshop as instructed.
There is moisture and all kinds of weird and unpleasant smells inside, but it is still bright. They stopped there when footsteps were heard not far away.
The person who contacted them on the phone was a man, but now it is a woman who is walking towards them.
The footsteps were getting closer, Li Wan squinted slightly, and finally saw the person coming.
She and Qin Qianrou were both taken aback, they knew this person.
"Director Jane?"
Li Wan was still in shock. This person greeted her in the elevator a few days ago, saying that she had applied for a long vacation and was going to Australia to see her son and daughter-in-law.
"It's a surprise, I'm here today."
Although Qin Qianrou did not open her mouth, she was quite shocked.
Jian Shan is the deputy director of the financial department of the TV station, and has similar qualifications as director Yu of the advertising department. They both entered the TV station at the same time. It is said that they seem to be still university alumni, but after entering Taili, the two of them don't have much interaction, and their private relationship is normal.
"How could you..."
Jian Shan smiled and said frankly, "I don't like the director being promoted, let alone let Deputy Director Ding be the director."
Li Wan and Qin Qianrou looked at each other and knew it. Probably because this personnel adjustment failed to benefit Jian Shan, some people were dissatisfied.
"You think I'm jealous, so you want to pull them off?"
They were silent, which was equivalent to acquiescing to Jian Shan's statement.
Jian Shan was not annoyed, she shook her head and said, "If I really wanted to fight for the leadership position, I would not have been a deputy director for so many years. I just want to be at ease and do my best. I work at my own job, and when I retire, I will go abroad to accompany my son."
This is indeed Director Jane's wish. She has always been scrupulous about these things, and meticulously does a good job in financial work. The financial data in her hands is said to have never been wrong. When everyone chats, what she yearns most is the life after retirement.
"Director Yu and Ding Futai received the benefits of Dongsheng Group, which were all small favors before. This time, taking advantage of the personnel reform, Dongsheng made a lot of money, and they naturally want to do things for others."
Sure enough, the team leader's guess is not wrong.
Their hearts sank, which is why this promotion had to be stopped.
Jian Shan approached them a little more: "I have always kept my distance from them. Before they always wanted me to reimburse them for some non-compliant expenses, my face was black, my hands were tight, they I can only go to the director. But this reform, the director is about to retire, and there is no other suitable person in the finance department besides me, so they are eyeing me. "
The finance department is different from other business departments, it is difficult to drop the supervisor from the outside or other units in a short time. Jian Shan is the best candidate, but she doesn't listen to them.
"As a finance, I know how wrong it is to turn those non-compliant bills and fees into legitimate income. I don't want to be implicated, and I don't want to be that person myself , so I can only do that."
Jian Shan's statement made each other's defenses a little less, probably because she had been on the TV for a long time, even if it was financial, Jian Shan also learned the trick of disguise.
"I have some evidence that Director Yu and Ding Futai have received benefits over the years. When they first came to me, I refused to sign it, but I backed it up."
Hearing what Jian Shan said, Qin Qianrou and Li Wan were naturally happy.
" However, the huge advertising fee of Dongsheng last time is a bit strange. They did not follow the previous practice, but changed a new way of cooperation. I have seen the version of the agreement, I have to say , Dongsheng's financial ability has become stronger."
"How?"
Jian Shan recalled: "Dongsheng's advertising fees are divided into three parts, which are gradually increased, and each part has set a threshold for reaching the standard. These thresholds are not too difficult to achieve, but for the expense reimbursement program, the It is another manifestation. I think they should have changed the financial team. This set is very popular in foreign countries. It can not only reasonably avoid taxes, but also make some dark money become more open. "
As soon as Li Wan heard it, she thought that it was probably Zhuo Cheng's handwriting.
He is talented, and he is often praised by teachers for his unique insights when he is studying. Li Wan has always encouraged him, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future.
She was right, Zhuo Cheng is capable. But the character is too bad, this ability is used in the wrong place.
"However, no matter how good the plan is, it is still someone outside. I have worked in the TV station for decades. Who knows the situation in the TV station better than me?"
Jian Shan is a prudent and peaceful person. On weekdays, she maintains an appropriate distance from everyone, keeps her distance from the world, and focuses on her work. But it doesn't mean that she is blind and deaf. She knows very well who is really doing things and who is honest and credible.
That's why she chose the column group. The original intention was to see Lin Shuangzhi, but the people who came were Li Wan and Qin Qianrou, and she was not disappointed.
These two people are also famous for being steely in Taiwan. Gold mountains and silver mountains are not attractive to them.
"My request is very simple, I can't disclose my information. The information I provide is only to point you in a direction, and the rest is for you to check. I'm about to retire, and I don't want to be here It’s time to grow branches outside the festival.”
Jian Shan is an ordinary person after all. She sticks to her own ethics and doesn't want to join forces with people like Director Yu and Ding Futai, but she doesn't have the same ambitions as Li Wan and Qin Qianrou.
She just wants to be an ordinary person.
**
On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was very dignified, and after driving for more than ten minutes, no one spoke.
Li Wanxian couldn't help it: "I didn't expect that there were so many complicated relationships hidden in the stage."
Qin Qianrou was standing by the car window, a little lost.
I have to say that what happened one after another made her angry and disappointed at the same time.
"Xiao Wan, don't you think we have been deceived by illusions?"
Li Wan sighed, how could she not think?
Qin Qianrou looked at the gray sky outside, her mood fell to the bottom: "We have been trying to find the truth, but the environment we are in is an illusion."
How ironic, Qin Qianrou's mouth curled into a helpless and self-deprecating smile.
"It's disgusting, but at least there is still a pure land, at least we are still people who can be trusted."
Hearing Li Wan grit her teeth and say this, Qin Qianrou smiled.
A good friend is always a good friend. They can always understand what each other is thinking, such a tacit understanding is very good.
Looking at the time, Qin Qianrou was going to go back to pick up the car and pick up Shen Yiqiu before school was over.
After she sent Shen Yiqiu a message that she was on her way back, she took the time to discuss the next steps with Li Wan. Their time was running out and Lin Shuangzhi was away, so this matter fell to them.
"Find a time in the evening for the three of us to hold a video conference. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run." Before getting off the bus, Qin Qianrou made an appointment.
According to the information given by Jian Shan, Li Wan went back to the stage to find evidence. Fortunately, she asked for a leave at the time and said that she had a temporary emergency to deal with, and it is not abrupt to suddenly run back to the stage now.
Shen Yiqiu stood outside the school gate for ten minutes, but still didn't see Qin Qianrou's car. Twenty minutes ago, she had sent a message saying that she had already driven over, and it didn't take so long to get there from Mengda.
Shen Yiqiu held the mobile phone, for fear that the phone call would affect Qin Qianrou's driving, her sister was very attentive when driving.
Zhang Meng happened to come back from an off-campus internship and laughed at Shen Yiqiu stomping her feet.
"How anxious are you to wait for people to wait like this?"
"Sister, what a coincidence?"
"It's not a coincidence, I saw you specially come to say hello to you." Zhang Meng looked around, "Waiting for reporter Qin?"
Love I heard from Shen Yiqiu that reporter Qin went to Haicheng for a business trip for training, and it will take some days before he returns.
"Yes, she's here temporarily to run errands, so she'll stay for a few days."
Shen Yiqiu was about to continue explaining, but there was a tingling pain in his heart, which was still strong through the thick winter clothes.
Sister…
"The hotel, thank you!"
Shen Yiqiu called Li Wan: "Sister Li Wan, you came to the hotel immediately."
Li Wan heard that something was wrong with her, and left without waiting to know the situation.
"Is something wrong with Qianrou?"
"I sensed it, anyway, let's go to the hall hotel as soon as possible!"
The traffic was moving slowly, Shen Yiqiu was in a hurry. The Liaoting Hotel is located in the central city, and as soon as the car got off the elevated road, the endless congestion began.
Shen Yiqiu paid the fare and got off halfway. She ran with all her strength, completely ignoring the unusual eyes of those around her. As long as her sister is safe and sound, she just wants to hurry up to Qin Qianrou's side.
The author has something to say: In the next chapter, our Xiaoqiu's ability will be upgraded
