Xiao Xiao looked at her, her face moved. She bit her lip and asked, ” “Don’t you hate me?”

Looking at her, Anran nodded honestly. &Quot; if you say you don’t hate me, then you’re being pretentious. &Quot; No one would not have any negative feelings towards the person who framed them after being framed like that.

Xiao Xiao nodded and looked at her without saying anything.

“Madam, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat now?” Aunt Zhang asked through the bar. She seemed to have heard Anran say that she wanted to ask the woman to stay for dinner.

Anran nodded. &Quot; okay, let’s eat now. &Quot; He then turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiao, saying, ” “Let’s stay here and go together.”

Xiao Xiao looked at her and didn’t speak for a long time. Finally, she shook her head and said softly, ” “No, I won’t.” He stood up and looked at her with a strange expression, but he still thanked her. &Quot; “Thank you for today!” After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, dragging his injured leg. His walking posture was a little ugly.

Anran didn’t ask her to stay, but she still politely sent her off.

When she reached the door, Xiao Xiao turned around to look at her, then looked down at the clothes she was wearing. &Quot; these clothes. &Quot;

“I’ll return it when I’m free.” An ran said.

Xiao Xiao nodded and turned to leave without saying anything more.

Su Yicheng came back the next evening. When he came back, Anran was still taking an afternoon nap, and she was woken up by a certain someone’s kiss. When she woke up in a daze, she saw his magnified handsome face in front of her. However, that handsome face had a visible fatigue and his eyes were dark. It was obvious that he did not sleep well.

Anran looked at him, reached out, and touched his face with a pained expression. &Quot; you’re back, ” she said softly.

“Yes.” Su Yicheng nodded, then pulled her hand to his lips and kissed it.

She moved sideways, making half of the bed open, and asked him, ” “Do you want to come up and take a nap?”

Su Yicheng shook his head. &Quot; I still have to go to the office, and I have a dinner party tonight. I’ll probably be busy until very late. &Quot;

An ran frowned subconsciously. &Quot; that’s hard work. &Quot;

Su Yicheng smiled and simply reached out to touch her face. His large palm brushed across her delicate skin, and he said lightly, ” don’t wait for me at night. If you’re tired, go to bed early. &Quot;

Because she knew that this was his job, Anran was helpless. She sat up from the bed, looked at him, and could only nod. She told him, ” “Don’t drink so much and come back early.”

Su Yicheng patted her head, took his clothes from the closet, and went straight into the bathroom to change. When he came out, Anran had already gotten out of bed. When she saw him coming out, she took her tie and went straight up to him. She stood on her tiptoes slightly to tie the tie for him, then reached out to adjust his position and tidied his clothes.

After seeing him out, su Yicheng planted a kiss on her face before turning around to leave.

Aunt Zhang, who was cleaning behind her, saw this and looked at Anran in a daze. She smiled and said, ” “Sir and Madam’s relationship is really good.”

An ran’s face was still red, and she made an excuse to go into the study.

That day, su Yicheng really came back very late. Anran was waiting in the living room, watching TV while waiting for him at the door, but she fell asleep while watching. When she woke up, he still hadn’t returned, and it was almost 12 O ‘clock. Even many TV programs had ended. Then, he waited in the living room for more than half an hour, but she still didn’t appear. In the end, he couldn’t hold it in anymore and went straight back to his room. Lying on the bed, he tried hard to open his eyes at first, but later, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep in a daze.

She didn’t know when he came back, but when she woke up the next morning, she was still sleeping in his arms like before. However, he was really tired, so he didn’t wake her up.

It was rare for her to have the chance to cook breakfast for him when he was asleep. Before the breakfast was ready, he had already changed and washed up and came out of the room with a briefcase in his hand.

Anran quickly put down the half-fried egg and ran out of the kitchen around the bar counter. She stopped in front of him and asked, ” “You’re leaving already? Let’s have breakfast before we leave.”

Su Yicheng raised his hand to look at the time, then shook his head apologetically. &Quot; I still have a meeting in the morning. I’m afraid I won’t make it if I don’t leave now. &Quot;

Anran was a little worried that his body would be able to eat well after such a high-intensity work, so she asked, ” “Why have you been so busy recently?”

Su Yicheng smiled and reached out to stroke her shoulder-length hair, saying, ” “I’m sorry, I don’t have time to spend with you recently.”

Anran lowered her head, holding her right hand with her left hand, and muttered, ” “I’m not a child, I don’t need you to accompany me every day.” She was just worried about him. When she was hospitalized, he reported to the hospital every day, from the office, to the hospital, and at home. Now, he had to go on business trips, attend dinner parties, and attend meetings for the past few days. She was really worried that his body could not take it. She could see how tired and exhausted he was, so how could she not be heartbroken?

Su Yicheng reached out to hug her, gently patted her back, and whispered in her ear, ” “I’m almost done. After this, I’ll spend more time with you and the baby, okay?”

“I don’t want your company.” Anran reached out and hugged him back. &Quot; if you’re busy during this time, you’ll have to stay at home and rest. Don’t go. &Quot; They didn’t need him to accompany them. She and the baby would accompany him.

Su Yicheng chuckled and kissed her on the forehead, then raised his hand to look at the time and let go of her. &Quot; I’m really going over. &Quot; If he didn’t leave now, he would really be late.

Anran nodded and walked him out of the door. &Quot; drive slowly, ” she said.

“Yes.” He touched her head affectionately and said, ” “Remember to have breakfast.”

Anran said yes with a faint smile and then watched him enter the elevator.

After sending su Yicheng off, Anran returned to the kitchen and fried the half-cooked poached egg in the pot until it was 70 – 80% done before she took it out of the pot and placed it on a plate that she had prepared in advance. She took out the freshly-baked bread from the toaster, poured herself a glass of milk, and spun it in the microwave for a minute. Anyway, she brought her breakfast to the bar counter and ate it. In fact, it tasted pretty good. Over the past two days, she had been learning how to cook from aunt Zhang. It was much better to be taught by people than by teachers. Back then, no matter how she looked at the recipes, she couldn’t make something that didn’t feel right. With aunt Zhang’s guidance, the steps were the same, but the taste was much worse.

However, there was no one to eat breakfast with. No matter how delicious the food was, it didn’t taste right in her mouth. Looking at the food beside her, Anran lost her appetite.

Su Yicheng had been really busy these past few days. Not only was the bidding for the technology City project still going on, but he had also submitted the materials to the Provincial Party Committee, and people had been coming to talk to him for the past two days. In the morning, when the bidding office was discussing the new round of bidding, there was a call from outside, saying that there was a problem with the demolition and construction of the old District in the north of the city. The accident was quite serious. Some of the elderly and two children were sent to the hospital, while some villagers and workers were directly brought to the police station. This incident quickly alerted the media in Jiang city.

Regarding the demolition and construction of the old District, there were always some households that refused to move. Some were unwilling to part with the land, and some were dissatisfied with the demolition money.

The cause of the incident was actually very simple. Today, the demolition workers came to carry out the forced demolition, but there were still a few households that had not moved out. The demolition workers first came to negotiate with them, but the verbal disagreement soon spread to physical conflict. After a few words, the workers and residents started fighting, and in the middle of the fight, they innocently injured the elderly who tried to stop the fight and the children who were watching.

When the old man fell to the ground, blood flowed out from under his head, and the child’s cries followed. This angered the angry villagers, and the conflict between the two sides intensified. The scene was even out of control. In the end, some people were still afraid and called the police. They took away several of the troublemakers on the spot and hurriedly sent the injured elderly and children to the nearby hospital.

The reporters and media quickly found out about this incident, and they rushed to the scene of the accident and the hospital in batches before su Yicheng and the others.

After su Yicheng and the staff member in charge of the construction of Technology City received a call, they immediately rushed to the hospital where the injured elderly and child were still in.

So, when su Yicheng arrived at the hospital, he was already surrounded by reporters before he even entered the emergency room.

&Quot; Deputy Mayor su, you’re the mayor of Technology City. What do you have to say about this? ” A female reporter rushed to su Yicheng and asked as she walked.

Su Yicheng glanced at her, frowned, and simply said, ” “I want to see the injured elderly and children first.”

The reporters still wanted to say something, but Secretary Zheng stopped them. &Quot; everyone, let’s interview them later. &Quot;

Hearing this, the reporter didn’t say anything more and followed su Yicheng into the emergency room.

The old man’s head had more than ten stitches. He was lying on the bed in the emergency room alone. Only his wife, who was over 60 years old, stayed by his side to take care of him. He did not see his children or other relatives. Two children were lying on the bed beside him. They were both very young. The boy was at most eight or nine years old, and the girl looked to be only six or seven years old. She looked around with her eyes wide open. There was no one around to take care of her. She did not see the child’s parents.

Su Yicheng sat in front of the bed, reached out to hold the old man’s hand, and asked about his condition. He felt a little guilty and looked at him with a sad heart as he said, ” “Old man, I’ve made you suffer.” They shouldn’t have suffered such a punishment at their age.

&Quot; that house is our root. It’s where we’re going to return to. How could you tear it down? ” The old man was lying on the bed, looking at su Yicheng with red eyes and tears in his eyes.

“Old man, the demolition is for better development, to give our next generation a better living environment, to build more convenient living conditions for them. I know you have feelings for that place, and in fact, we do, but feelings can’t conquer everything. The country needs development, the city needs construction, and only with development and construction can our lives get better and better, don’t you think so?” Su Yicheng held his hand and spoke very sincerely.

The old man looked at him and said after a long time, ” “But if you tear down our house, where do you want us to live?”

&Quot; we’ve already given out the demolition money. It’s fine if you don’t accept the money. When the residential houses here are built in the future, the government will allocate the houses to each family according to their situation. By then, the place will still be the same as before, but we’ve changed your old house to a new one. If you can’t find a suitable place to live now, we can help you find a suitable place. Try not to be too far away from here. &Quot; Su Yicheng promised.

“Really?” The old man looked at him in disbelief.

&Quot; I promise you, ” su Yicheng said solemnly. His expression was serious and solemn.

The old man looked at him for a while, then said seriously, ” “Alright, I’ll believe you!”

Su Yicheng nodded and told him to rest well. He also told the old man’s wife to take good care of the old man.

Then, he turned around and walked to the other bed. The two children were lying on the same bed with their big eyes wide open. The black and white of their eyes were clearly distinguished, and they looked especially clean. The skin on his face and forehead was disinfected with Red Medicine, and his hands and feet were wrapped in gauze. It made people feel a little sorry for them.

Su Yicheng reached out and touched their heads, then asked softly, ” “Little friend, tell uncle, what are your names?”

The two children stared at su Yicheng, then looked at each other again. After a long time, the boy slowly opened his mouth and whispered, ” “I’m blockhead, brother.”

The girl beside him also replied in a soft voice, ” “I’m called stool. I’m your younger sister.”

Su Yicheng smiled at them and asked in a gentle voice, ” “Why didn’t you go to school today?”

“Dad said that someone came to destroy our house today.” The older brother said.

“Mom told us to stay at home and protect our house.” &Quot; mom said that those people won’t hit children, ” the younger sister said. &Quot; if someone does, we have to hold onto their legs and not let them in. &Quot;

Hearing this, su Yicheng frowned. He couldn’t understand why, as the parents of their child, they would let their child participate in such a matter. Children should be happy and carefree, shouldn’t they?

He reached out and touched their heads affectionately, then stood up silently. He turned around and said to Secretary Zheng, ” &Quot; let’s go out and buy some nutritional supplements for the elderly and children. Put the money on my tab. &Quot;

Secretary Zheng nodded and left the emergency room first.

Su Yicheng then instructed the doctors and nurses to take good care of the injured elderly and children. He especially instructed the nurses to feed the children and help them wipe their faces.

Just as he was about to leave the emergency room, the group of media reporters surrounded him again. Su Yicheng frowned and said in a deep voice, ” “Let’s go out and talk. Don’t disturb the patient’s rest.”

Everyone left without saying anything, but they were also moved by the attentiveness of the young Deputy Mayor.

Su Yicheng only accepted their interview when they arrived at the hospital’s lobby.

“Deputy Mayor su, what are your thoughts on this incident?”

“I feel very sad, especially when I know that it’s the elderly and children who are injured. We expected that there would be obstacles and hardships in the process of demolition and construction. In construction and development, we have to put the overall situation first, so it is inevitable that some people will not be completely satisfied. However, in such a situation, I personally feel that it is very wrong to push the elderly and children to the front!” Su Yicheng said.

“About this accident, how does Deputy Mayor su plan to deal with it? do you still want to continue the demolition project? If the villagers continue to resist the demolition, are you going to use force?” Another reporter asked sharply.

Su Yicheng turned his head to look at him and said, ” &Quot; the demolition of the Laocheng District is for the better development of Jiang city in the future. This is beneficial to the people, so the demolition will continue. As for whether the government will use coercive means, I want to make it clear that our government is not a violent organization. In fact, there are some things that we lack communication and understanding with the villagers. I believe that after we communicate with the people and they realize that we are demolishing for the better development in the future, this problem will be solved very well. &Quot; After he finished speaking, he directly lifted his foot to leave and said, ” &Quot; that’s all I want to say now. I welcome everyone to follow up on the follow-up report of this matter. &Quot;

&Quot; Deputy Mayor su, I heard that you were called over by the Commission for Discipline Inspection some time ago. According to the news, you received a gift of nearly a million Yuan from the CEO of a certain company. Is this true? ” Seeing that he was about to leave, one of the reporters rushed to him and asked, ”

Su Yicheng stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at the wall. After a long while, he said with a faint smile, ” “You’re very well-informed.”

The reporter’s heart trembled under his gaze. He tightened his grip on the microphone and said again, ” “Deputy Mayor su, please answer my question.”

Su Yicheng nodded and said, ” “I was indeed invited by the Commission for Discipline Inspection to cooperate with the investigation, but if what you just said is true, do you think I will still stand here and accept your interview?”

“Uh,” The man was stunned for a moment before he reacted. &Quot; that means you didn’t accept a certain CEO’s gift, right? ”

Su Yicheng glanced at him and simply said, ” “I’ve never accepted gifts from anyone.” After that, he didn’t say anything more to them. He turned around and walked towards the hospital’s Gate. He still had to go to the police station to meet the villagers and the demolition staff who had caused trouble this time.

When su Yicheng arrived at the police station, Tong Wenhai had already arrived one step ahead of him and was talking to the police about something. To his surprise, Zhou han was also talking to the group of demolition workers about the situation at the same time. However, when he remembered that Zhou Han’s company was the developer of this project, it was reasonable to see him here, so it was not strange.

In the interrogation office, several villagers were making a ruckus, and the policewoman almost couldn’t control the situation.

Su Yicheng asked the policewoman to leave, and he stood in the middle of the group of agitated villagers. He didn’t rush to talk about the problem of demolition, but first asked, ” “Are there uncle Liu’s children and wood and stool’s parents here?”

A middle-aged woman was the first to speak. &Quot; I, I’m the mother of wood and chair. &Quot;

Another middle-aged man also stood up. &Quot; I’m Liu Dacheng’s son. &Quot;

Su Yicheng frowned and looked at them for a while before saying, ” &Quot; you guys go to the hospital first. The elderly and the child need someone to take care of them. &Quot;

“We won’t go anywhere until we solve the demolition and construction problem.” The man insisted.

The woman seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally agreeing, ” &Quot; that’s right. You have to give us an explanation today. What right do you have to destroy our house? ”

Su Yicheng’s brows furrowed even more, and he said sternly, ” &Quot; your parents and children are in the hospital. Is the house more important than them? ”

The man and woman were both stunned and speechless.

Su Yicheng glanced at everyone, and this time, he softened his voice and said, ” &Quot; you guys go to the hospital first. I’ll talk to them here, and they’ll talk to you when they get back. What’s the Difference? ”

The old man’s son and the child’s mother nodded and left for the hospital.

Su Yicheng looked at the group of angry villagers and said, ” “City construction and demolition are all for the better development of the city in the future. It’s a good thing. Why do you insist on not demolishing and moving? don’t you want to live in a better and more comfortable environment in the future? besides, only when a city is developed well will the bosses in the city have a better life. Isn’t that the case?”

“We don’t understand what development and construction are. These are all decided by you, a group of officials. You don’t care about the interests of us common people. “Now, you want to demolish the house and build it, and you’re only giving us that little money. The price of the house now is higher than the sky. Where do you want us to live with that little money? Without a house, we’re going to have to sleep on the streets and starve!” One of them said.

&Quot; that’s right, that’s right. You’re all building for yourself. You’ve never thought about us common people. &Quot; Someone echoed.

&Quot; that’s right. It’s just a small amount of money. We definitely won’t tear down our house. If you really want to tear it down, then you can just step over us. &Quot;

“Yes, yes, I definitely won’t tear it down!”

Everyone’s emotions were a little agitated, and their gazes seemed to be able to eat people.

Su Yicheng furrowed his brows. As far as he knew, the demolition money this time was not small, so he asked, ” “How much money did you guys get in total?”

“700 thousand per household.” One of them replied, ” the house prices are so high now. What kind of house can you buy with 700000 Yuan? you’re forcing us to leave! &Quot;

&Quot; that’s right, that’s right … &Quot; everyone agreed.

Su Yicheng’s heart sank. As far as he knew, the demolition fee was definitely not less than a million Yuan, but they said it was only 700000 Yuan, so it was obvious that this money had long been coveted by others.

Su Yicheng raised his hand to signal for them to quiet down, and then he said, ” &Quot; perhaps there’s a misunderstanding. I’ll definitely give everyone an explanation. &Quot;

“Do you mean what you say?” Someone asked doubtfully.

&Quot; yes, I’m the person in charge of the construction of Technology City. If I say I’ll give everyone an explanation, I’ll give everyone an explanation! &Quot; Su Yicheng promised.

The villagers looked at each other, and after a long while, a representative said, ” “All of us just want a place where we can shelter ourselves from the wind and rain and live. If the construction really benefits us, how can we not cooperate? it’s just that we’ve been forced into a dead end, and we have no other choice. We can trust you this once, but if the situation is still the same, we will definitely not move.”

Su Yicheng nodded and promised, ” “I will be responsible for everyone.”
