No one knew how long he had been with her, but the reflection in the ceramic tiles painted a picture of their escalating passion.
Gu Zi was completely bare, her legs spread wide apart. The man’s powerful hips thrust back and forth, causing her to sway with each movement.
Her long hair cascaded down her back like soft, black silk, accentuating her voluptuous body, which was as fair and pure as jade.
Afterward, the man carefully cleaned her up and held her as they slept. Her body was flushed a light pink, making him afraid to hold her too tightly for fear of breaking her.
But if he didn’t hold her tight, he couldn’t satisfy his possessive desire. He was genuinely afraid that if he didn’t hold her close, he might lose her.
The next morning, the second son knocked on the door. Su Shen was awake and was just about to kiss the woman in his arms.
Upon hearing the knock, he covered the woman with a blanket before saying, “Come in.”
The second son brought in Lele, and Su Shen took the child and placed him on the side of the bed where he slept.
Su Li wanted to call out to his mother when he saw that she was still asleep, but his father stopped him, and his tone was somewhat harsh.
Feeling wronged, Su Li left the room.
The two brothers made themselves some food and prepared simple lunch boxes for school.
Su Li couldn’t help but complain to his older brother, “Our father is such a scheming man. He was afraid I would curry favor with mom, so he didn’t even let me talk to her.”
Su Bing was silent for a moment before saying, “He was afraid you would wake his wife. Mom has been running around a lot lately and needs more rest. It’s not that dad is scheming.”
Although Su Bing admitted that their father was indeed cunning, he also thought that Su Li wasn’t too bad himself in that aspect.
Su Li blinked and said, “Is that so? Alright then, I’ll talk to mom tonight. I took good care of Lele yesterday. Dad couldn’t soothe Lele, but I managed to do it quickly.”
Su Bing shook his head. This competition for favor was hopeless!
In the city, Gu Shan and Zhang Mei went to the police station early in the morning with a fruit basket and an invitation, intending to invite Deputy Chief He to their daughter Lin Miao’s wedding banquet.
However, it was a coincidence that Deputy Chief He was not there that day. Just as Gu Shan was thinking of another way to contact him, he ran into Captain He, who was returning from work, at the entrance of the police station.
Captain He was Deputy Chief He’s son, so it was perfect to have him deliver the message….
Immediately, Gu Shan implored Captain He to accept the invitation and fruit basket on behalf of his father. He also extended an invitation to Captain He himself.
Zhang Mei also exchanged a fair amount of pleasantries. Seeing Captain He’s satisfaction, she felt a sense of accomplishment. She had heard rumors about the Deputy Bureau Chief He’s son being a rising star in the military, a rare talent indeed. Today, upon meeting him, she found him to be extraordinary, no less impressive than Gong Zhan.
Zhang Mei quietly hatched a plan. Once she established a relationship with Deputy Bureau Chief He’s family, she intended to introduce her own relative’s children to Captain He.
With family ties strengthened, who in the military compound would dare not give them some respect?
Captain He, unaware of their ulterior motives, saw this as a good opportunity to advance his case. He laughed gracefully, saying, “Even if you hadn’t invited me, I would have come on my own.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Shan and Zhang Mei felt that the young man was indeed eloquent, truly worthy of being Deputy Bureau Chief He’s son. They left quite satisfied.
After they left, one of Captain He’s subordinates, a public security officer, came over, frowning. “It’s the Gu family again. I don’t know what’s going on. Recently, that old man Gu Shan has been frequently visiting the police station to see your father, and your father has had to find excuses to avoid coming in.”
Deputy Bureau Chief He didn’t want outsiders to think he was too familiar with the Gu family, hence his evasiveness. Little did he know, the Gu family had completely missed his intentions. Despite the fact that their daughter was marrying into the Gong family, the sworn enemy of Deputy Bureau Chief He, he still received an invitation from the Gu family. It was truly baffling.
Captain He raised his eyebrows, correcting him, “What do you mean ‘my father’? In the bureau, there is only Deputy Bureau Chief He, not ‘my father’. Call my father and tell him his son says he should stop hiding. He can’t avoid it, tell him to come and accept the fruit basket and invitation.”
His subordinate gave a thumbs up, “Captain He, you’re the best!”
Upon returning to his office and seeing the invitation and fruit basket, Deputy Bureau Chief He couldn’t help but smirk, complaining, “The Gu family is like a persistent adhesive plaster, impossible to shake off. We only met once at Su Shen’s wedding, and they just won’t let it go! Look at their greed, not only do they want me to attend, but they also want me to bring the other two old fellows to boost their event’s prestige!”
The content of the invitation was essentially a sincere request for someone to attend a banquet at the Golden Sun Hotel, and to help invite Boss Huo and the old leader.
Deputy Bureau Chief He took a drag from his cigarette, shook his head, and laughed wordlessly..
