Chapter 209: Talking About Love and Cases (V) (1/2)

Although Madam Koo said she would reimburse the full amount, how could they, as subordinates, really go for a big meal? In the end, they decided to go to the suburbs for a barbecue. Doing it yourself is economical and fun.

Lu Tianheng gave everyone in the serious crime team a day off. They drove to the suburbs to find an open grassland, pushed the food to Xu Xiaoli, and ran to set up the table and grill, without any intention of helping.

Xu Xiaoli pointed at them and smiled, "You conscienceless guys, fortunately I asked my mother and sister-in-law to help me prepare a lot in advance, otherwise I would be exhausted if I was alone!"

Lu Tianheng hung up the phone and came over to see that the food prepared by Xu Xiaoli had been skewered, leaving only some seafood and vegetables they brought. "It doesn't look like there is much left. Let me skewer with you, so it will be faster."

He and Jingbo have always been good friends and good partners. He also knew that Jingbo was depressed recently, so he wanted to test the waters for his friend, "Uh, sharp sister, I also made an appointment with Kingsle y, he just called and said he'll be here soon. "

Xu Xiaoli put the wrapped seafood on the tray, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "It should be, he also made a lot of efforts in handling the case. Why do you tell me this specifically? Are you afraid that I will give him a bad face? Don't worry, we are not children anymore, I have let go of the past. "

Lu Tianheng swallowed the temptation that was about to come to his mouth. It was clear from Xu Xiaoli's appearance that she had no feelings for Jingbo. He had seen countless women, and he could still tell whether there was affection in the eyes when talking about a person. He quickly laughed and changed the topic.

After everyone started grilling, Jingbo hurried over, "Sorry, I couldn't find the way just now, so I'm so late."

Lu Tianheng stepped forward and patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, there's food now, go and sit down, these big eaters, if you don't hurry up, you won't be able to grab food."

PC smiled and said: "Lo? Sir, you are so mean, how can you expose our secrets? In this way, Professor Jing will be on guard, and we won't be able to grab it, right?"

Everyone started to make fun of each other and expose each other's shortcomings. During this period of time, they have solved a series of cases, including bombs and specimens. Everyone is a little nervous. It's rare to come out to relax, and the mood has improved a lot.

Speaking of Xu Xiaoli's resignation, several people felt very sorry. Ah Ben stood up and imitated the scene of Xu Xiaoli catching a thief. "It was said that Xi Li Mei had just been transferred to the serious crime team. The first time I went to catch a thief with me, the thief rode a motorcycle and ran away at a high speed. Xi Li Mei stood in front of him and picked up a stick and turned to hit him. Tsk, tsk, tsk, I felt so bad for him when I saw it from behind!"

A Zhan slapped his hand away and shouted: "If you want to fight, stay away. You almost hit me."

"Okay, you still dare to have opinions. I'll show you some power!" After that, the two jumped up and started to play.

Lu Tianheng handed Jingbo a string of chicken wings and said with a smile: "Ignore them, they left, we can eat more!"

Jingbo thanked him, looked up at Xu Xiaoli who was eating opposite, and asked: "Sharp sister, what are your plans recently? Do you want to find another job? I know senior barrister Liang Jingtian, I can introduce you to practice there."

"Thank you, but I have contacted Chen Yuqi, she agreed that I can go to her law firm as an assistant." Xu Xiaoli smiled. Chen Yuqi is also a top lawyer in Hong Kong. She is very decent. After receiving her resume and self-recommendation letter, he personally interviewed her. He was very satisfied with her legal knowledge and decided to accept her as an apprentice. For a newcomer in the legal profession, it would be much easier to have such a master to escort.

Jingbo smiled when he heard this, and wanted to chat with her more, but he didn't know what to say. Seeing this, Lu Tianheng just lowered his head to eat. Since Xu Xiaoli had no intention, he couldn't just match them up. Speaking of these two people, Jingbo was not kind. He confessed without thinking clearly, and broke up without thinking clearly. Now he wants to get back together? How can it be so cheap?

Jingbo has been looking for topics, but the few times he opened his mouth were all about work and ideals, which was very boring. Seeing Xu Xiaoli chatting with her former colleagues with a smile on her face, he was anxious, but he couldn't think of any solution.

Xu Xiaoli received a call from home, asking her to pick up Xu Jiaxi from school. She looked at her watch, wiped her mouth and said, "I'm almost done eating, and I have to pick up my nephew from school. I'll leave first, you guys eat slowly."

Jingbo immediately stood up and said, "It just so happens that I have to go back to the laboratory, so why don't I take you there? It's not easy to call a taxi here."

Xu Xiaoli wanted to refuse, but they were in the suburbs, and several people said that she couldn't leave alone, so she nodded in agreement.

On the way, Jing Bo hesitated to speak. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and suddenly said, "I was wrong. I thought that feelings could be rationally calculated with formulas, which hurt your heart. Sharp sister, can you give me another chance?"

Xu Xiaoli was silent for a while and said, "Professor Jing, not everything can be repeated. I want to say goodbye to the past and start a new life, and you will not be in my plan."

Jing Bo felt a pain in his heart. He stopped the car on the side of the road and looked at her and said, "Sharp sister, listen to me, I didn't see my feelings for you clearly. When I heard the gunshot yesterday, at that moment... You don't know how scared I was. I was so afraid of losing you, sharp sister, give me a chance."

The smile that Xu Xiaoli always had on her face disappeared. She said "impossible" and was about to open the door and get out of the car. Jingbo held her and said anxiously: "Sharp sister, give me another chance! I promise I won't make you sad again."

Xu Xiaoli remembered the despair and pain that remained on her body when she first came here. She turned her head expressionlessly and looked at her left hand that he was holding. "Jingbo, I was really happy when you confessed to me. I even doubted whether I had a dream. It was only after Jiaxi assured me that it was true that I dared to believe it. I know that my family background is ordinary. I tried very hard to integrate into your world, and even applied for a transfer to please your family, but what about you?"

Jingbo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Xu Xiaoli continued, "Let's talk about the last time at Uncle San's banquet. I didn't understand British customs and sent the wrong gift. I was wrong, but I really didn't mean it. I saw a wanted criminal at the banquet. I'm a policeman. Shouldn't I arrest him? Why do you only blame me for ruining the banquet, and don't you think about how dangerous it is for a wanted criminal to sneak into the banquet? Afterwards, the injured guests at the banquet kept complaining to me, and your family kept blaming me. What were you doing at the time? You turned off your phone and went abroad to relax!"

"What happened next?" She sneered, "Your mother was sick and went to the hospital. I was anxious to find you everywhere. As a result, I finally saw you, but you told me that you miscalculated, you have to take care of your family, and you want to break up with me!"

Jingbo knew that he had done many wrong things, so he could only keep asking her for forgiveness, "I know, I know I was wrong. Gordon said you jumped into the sea to commit suicide. I'm really heartbroken. Sharp sister, let me make it up to you..."

Xu Xiaoli shook off his hand, untied the watch strap and showed him the scratches on her wrist that had not yet healed. "Jingbo! Do you know what I've been through? After the breakup, even the sky was gray. I hid in my room and cried all day. I didn't want to eat or sleep. All I could think about was you! Sometimes when I was crossing the road, I really wanted to be hit by a car and die, so that I wouldn't have to think about you anymore. I even cut my wrists and committed suicide... Now I've come out of it, I've let you go, I can finally eat without vomiting, sleep without insomnia, so I ask you, please don't bother me anymore!"

Jingbo stared at the deep wound and could no longer ask for her forgiveness with a clear conscience. He shed tears and kept whispering, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Xu Xiaoli got off the car and stopped a taxi in front. She felt sorry for the original owner. The words she just said were what the sharp girl said in the original book. It's a pity that the sharp girl actually forgave him in the end! Did all the suffering he had endured go in vain? Jingbo should also bear some pain for his willfulness!

Xu Xiaoli handed over her job to the new Wendy, and after completing the last resignation procedure, she completely left the police force. Xu Fei really loves his children. Even though none of his three children became police officers, he just sighed and let it go. He just solemnly told Xu Xiaoli, "Sharp sister, you must be a conscientious lawyer and help the police bring criminals to justice. You must not exploit legal loopholes to help those bad guys get away with it, understand?"

"Yes? Sir!" Xu Xiaoli also saluted him solemnly.

The second brother Xu Guoliang came out scratching his head, picked up a pillow and lay on the sofa, saying: "Don't worry, Sir Fei, if Xi Li Mei hadn't been so principled and inflexible, she would have been promoted long ago."

Xu Fei casually threw the pillow at his head, glared and shouted: "Go! You stinky boy! You can't grow tall even if you eat so many good things, otherwise why would I ask Xi Li Mei to be a policeman! You're just talking nonsense here!"

Xu Guoliang curled his lips, "You can't blame me for this, it's a genetic problem! But fortunately I'm not tall enough, I won't be a policeman because it's so hard!" After saying that, he jumped up and ran to the kitchen, "I'll go see what delicious food my mother has made!"

Seeing Xu Fei's angry look, Xu Xiaoli sat next to him and took his arm and smiled: "Sir Fei, don't listen to what the second brother says, I saw him secretly crying in the quilt when he was 18 years old and found that he was not tall enough! When he was a child, he wrote "My dream is to be a policeman" in his composition."

Xu Fei snorted, and his face looked much better. The Xu family is like this, no one will really get angry, and living together with noisy people makes it seem warm.

Sister Chang looked at them, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Xi Li Mei, now that you have resigned, what are you going to do? It seems that it is not easy to pass the lawyer exam. You can't stay at home all the time, right?"

Xu Guoan heard it and quickly pulled her sleeve. Sister Chang pursed her lips. Seeing that Xu Fei's face was gloomy again, she didn't dare to ask again. She was just calculating in her heart how much they would share since Xu Xiaoli had no salary and could not give money to the family.

Xu Xiaoli patted Xu Fei's hand and smiled: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I have found a job. I am an assistant to lawyer Chen Yuqi and will start work tomorrow. And I have learned investment from my friends, and the income is not bad."

Sister Chang smiled uncomfortably, "Oh, then I feel relieved, I am also worried about you."

No one cared, and Sister Chang was not wrong. Jiaxi was getting older and older. They had to save money to buy a house and send Jiaxi to college. They had to be more careful.

Xu Guoliang put the bowls and chopsticks on the table and said with a smile: "Wow, it's Chen Yuqi! Sister, you are lucky this time!"

Liang Xiu'e brought out the soup and asked worriedly, "Xi Li Mei, are your friends reliable? There are many scammers now. Don't be foolish to invest all your money. It's okay if your money is cheated, but it will be troublesome if someone treats you as a fat sheep."

"Don't worry, mom, I know my limits. I will save half of the money after each investment. Now the fixed deposit has been recovered. The rest is just practice investment. Anyway, I haven't lost money." She said that she would invest and make money, and she also wanted to give them a shot in advance to avoid too much money in the future.

Liang Xiu'e saw that her daughter was steady and smiled with relief: "That's good. You must do a good job under the barrister and get along well with your colleagues. I believe our Xi Li Mei can do it!"

Xu Xiaoli was also moved when she saw everyone's encouraging smiles. In the past, she traveled through time and space mostly in a wealthy and noble status, and basically had no family ties. She always did things as she pleased. In this life, she cherishes her family very much. She is more cautious in what she says and does when she is with them day and night. Fortunately, she has traveled through time and space many times and encountered all kinds of situations, so she didn't reveal anything.

I remembered the name of Fei Sir wrongly. He should be called Xu Hanfei instead of Xu Fei. However, I have already written five chapters and I will not go back to change it. Girls just need to know that he is Xi Li Mei's father^_^
