1107 Behind the Curtain

Behind the curtains

A pair of weak and weak plain hands replaced the hot towel on Dou Yifan's head from time to time, and several times supported his upper body to feed him water... The drowsy Dou Yifan knew that there was a woman taking care of him carefully, but his heavy eyelids made him unable to open his eyes to look at the owner of the warm plain hands. His head kept tumbling like a pot of hot porridge. The scene of Li Muyun covering his lower abdomen kept rolling in his mind constantly replaying. He seemed to see the tears in the corner of Li Muyun's eyes, and seemed to see Li Muyun's helplessness and regret. But in the next moment, Dou Yifan denied this skewering thought again. He understood the scene in his mind as an illusion.

Yes, that's an illusion! Li Muyun never cried, she had never cried, at least she had never shed a single tear in front of Dou Yifan. Li Muyun never was helpless, let alone regret. She always had principles and always adhered to principles so much. This is the principle that Dou Yifan hated her insistence on.

Dou Yifan moved his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything. His throat rolled a few times, and he was sobbing something vaguely.

The darkness before dawn finally passed, and a blush slowly rose on the sea in the east. Du Jieqi, who sat on the edge of the bed, had not closed his eyes all night, looked at the man who had finally calmed down and fell asleep in the bed, rubbed his temples exhausted, but his ears kept echoing the words Dou Yifan had been murmuring last night. Walking to the window, pulling open the thick curtains, and looking at the silent room opposite through a hazy window screen, Du Jieqi frowned silently.

Which one is more important, right or wrong, seems not so easy to define. The struggle within the system has never stopped because of a person's concessions. Being an official is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. When you retreat to the point where there is no way out, it is not the time for everything to end, just like her father. Even if Du Weiye retreated from the position of the president of the Criminal Court, and still cannot be peaceful, someone has been secretly investigating him behind his back. Although Du Jieqi did not know what the purpose of investigating her father was, and even less clear who this group of people were, she vaguely felt that the matter might be related to her father's illness and retreating early. The full text of the Knight King of Knights was read.

It was dawn, and the red sun struggling from the sea was shining on the windowsill. Dou Yifan, who had been sleeping in a drowsy manner for several hours, opened his heavy eyelids, rubbed it hard before he woke up completely. Looking at the clean walls and the simple curtains, Dou Yifan sat up from the bed with shock.

"Are you awake? Are you getting better?" Hearing the sound, Du Jieqi walked in from outside the door.

"Jie'er, is this your family? When did you move?" Looking at the apron on Du Jieqi's body, Dou Yifan asked in surprise as if he noticed something.

"Do you like it? Actually, I didn't move anything when I moved here. It turned out to be like this." Du Jieqi walked to Dou Yifan, stretched out her hand to him and then put down her palm as if she remembered something, touched Dou Yifan's forehead with her eyes, and looked into his body temperature. Feeling that Dou Yifan's body temperature had basically returned to normal, Du Jieqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, I won't burn anymore! You officially scared me to death last night. You guy is too unkind to care about your body!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Jie'er! Let's have a night of trouble! Get a rest quickly, okay?" Dou Yifan reached out and put his hand around Du Jieqi's shoulders, leaned his head on her shoulders and thanked him emotionally. Dou Yifan felt warm from the bottom of his heart for this woman who was several years older than him. In Du Jieqi, Dou Yifan could absorb the sense of security that other women could not give.

"I'm fine. I don't have to go to work this week anyway. I can rest later if I have time!" Du Jieqi hugged Dou Yifan's strong waist tightly and replied softly. She not only faced Dou Yifan's fragility at once, but also deeply understood the unknown side of this man.

"Uh...when is it? I'm going to pick up Mayor Shi!" As soon as Du Jieqi reminded him, Dou Yifan jumped out of the bed and rushed out of the door in a hurry.

"Hey, it's okay, it's still early! It's only a little over eight o'clock, don't worry!" Seeing Dou Yifan running out nervously, Du Jieqi quickly grabbed him.

"Uh... it's okay! It's okay! I thought I've overslept!" Hearing Du Jieqi's words, Dou Yifan fell on the edge of the bed like a deflated balloon.

"Haha, you lie down for a while! I'll cook the lean meat porridge for you, and it's going to be done." Du Jieqi carefully covered him with a quilt before turning around and leaving the door.

"Jie'er, thank you!" Dou Yifan thanked Du Jieqi loudly at the door, his slightly hoarse voice full of emotion.

"Silly!" Hearing Dou Yifan's words, Du Jieqi smiled and walked into the kitchen lightly.

After lying on the bed for a while, Dou Yifan really had no idea to fall asleep. He simply got up from the bed, put on his coat and walked to the window. He opened the thin window screen, and Dou Yifan looked out the window. The morning sun shone on the opposite roof, covering the glazed tiles on the roof with a golden coat, which looked more luxurious. Dou Yifan subconsciously crossed the gap between the roof and floated towards the community gate. He vaguely found that the place was familiar, and a feeling of familiarity arose. He stretched his waist by the window and did not think much about it, and Dou Yifan walked towards the bathroom, intending to drain the excess water he had been held in the night.

Pushing the bathroom open, Dou Yifan was immediately startled by a camera placed beside the window. He hesitated and walked to the window with confusion and moved the camera that should not be placed there casually. Pulling the curtains that were put down, Dou Yifan looked out the window, and was accidentally attracted by the house opposite. Dou Yifan, who realized something, looked at the familiar living room in the opposite room, with a look of surprise.

He couldn't help but let go of the curtains in his hand. The thick curtains fell down, covering the camera's lens, but could not hide Dou Yifan's doubts. After calming down, he stepped forward and observed carefully, and found that the camera's lens was cleverly embedded under the exhaust fan vent, and was covered without leaving any trace. Even if he looked over from the room opposite, he could only see the vent on the glass window.

Dou Yifan calmed down his mind, rubbed his eyes and lifted the curtains again and looked out, and found that he was not mistaken. This is really the Jinbang Mingjue Community, and opposite is the 12th floor of Building B.
