1987 My Era

Chapter 395, the truth

After giving his mother a few words of advice, Huang Xuqing sat in the driving seat, started the car, and rushed to Harvest magazine.

She had never been to the magazine office, but she knew the address because of her younger sister. It seemed to be located at No. 675, Julu Road, Nanjing West Road, Jing'an District. It was not very far away.

Along the way, she was thinking about how to phrase herself to ask editor Zou Ping for the news.

After all, a woman in her 30s fell in love with a 19-year-old boy. Even though she was knowledgeable and experienced, she was a little embarrassed to say it at first.

I really can't let go of my face.

After driving for about 20 minutes, they arrived at the magazine office. After Huang Xuqing had been preparing for some time in the car, he finally made up his mind to go meet Zouping.

I walked into the Harvest magazine office and asked the front desk staff, "Hello, I'm looking for editor Zouping."

Because of the great writer Shi Er Yue, everyone in the magazine knew Zou Ping. And Huang Yuqing was no stranger either, she was a famous news anchor of Shanghai TV.

The staff member recognized her and politely poured her a glass of water. "Please wait here for a moment. I'll go call Editor Zou."

"Thank you." Huang Xuqing thanked him but was not in the mood to drink water.

About two minutes later, Zouping rushed over from his busy schedule.

He had to come, because the staff said it was Huang Yuqing, the eldest sister Huang Zhaoyi, so he had no choice but to pay attention to her.

As soon as they met, Zouping greeted them warmly: "Hello."

This sound?
Why doesn’t the voice sound like the one on the phone?

Huang Xuqing frowned slightly, then nodded and smiled in response: "Hello Editor Zou, I am Sister Zhaoyi, can I spare you a few minutes to chat alone?"

Zouping understood, "Please follow me."

Huang Xuqing stood up and followed.

After a while, the two came to an empty reception room. Zou Ping closed the door, looked at her, and waited for her to speak.

Huang Yuqing hesitated for a moment, feeling suspicious, and said tentatively: "Editor Zou, it's like this, my younger sister is in Beijing now and can't come for the time being.

Just now you said on the phone that you had something for her, and I asked you to come and get it for her."

"Phone? Is there something for her?" Zou Ping was confused by the question.

After a short look, Zouping explained: "I didn't call Zhaoyi today."

After a few words, Huang Xuqing believed it. The voice on the phone was hoarse, which was completely different from the editor's accent. As a professional broadcaster, she was much more sensitive to this aspect than others.

Not Zouping?

Who was calling?
Why did he pretend to be Zouping twice?

Huang Yuqing, full of doubt, spoke again: "Maybe I heard it wrong. Is there anyone else in your society who has a good relationship with Zhaoyi?"

Zouping felt strange, but due to the other party's family background and status, he did not say anything, but said matter-of-factly: "Editor-in-Chief Liao."

Huang Xuqing asked: "Besides Editor-in-Chief Liao, is there anyone else?"

Zou Ping thought about it and shook his head: "I'm not particularly sure. You can ask Editor-in-Chief Liao about this."

Since he was here, he had to find out clearly. With his mind full of questions, Huang Xuqing immediately went up to the third floor and knocked on Editor-in-Chief Liao's door.

"Come in!" a voice came from inside.

Huang Xuqing pushed the door open and walked in: "Brother Liao, long time no see."

"Hey! Why are you here, Xu Qing? Come, sit down." Editor-in-Chief Liao quickly jumped up from his seat and poured her a cup of tea.

Huang Xuqing put the teacup aside and said straight to the point, "Brother Liao, is there anyone else in Harvest magazine who is familiar to me?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao didn't understand, but still answered: "Xiao Zou, Zouping."

Huang Xuqing asked: "What else?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao shook his head: "No more."

Seeing her confused expression, Editor-in-Chief Liao asked later, "Did something happen to Xu Qing?"

Since Liao Hua had a good relationship with the Huang family, he would go to wish Huang's father a happy new year every year. Moreover, the other party also knew that her younger sister was in love with Li Heng. Huang Xuqing hesitated for a moment, but still told her about someone pretending to be editor Zou Ping and calling her younger sister's house.

After that, she asked, "Brother Liao, who do you think this person is?"

Who is it?
Editor Liao subconsciously thought of Li Heng's figure, but then he denied it. It shouldn't be possible! It's impossible!

Didn’t Junior Brother dislike Zhaoyi? Why did he take the initiative to call?
Could it be that during this period, their relationship had undergone a major change? A reversal?

Editor Liao still couldn't believe it. But after filtering all the acquaintances around him, only Li Heng fit the bill. Because there was no need for others to pretend to be Xiao Zou.

Seeing Liao Hua silent, Huang Yuqing couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Liao, who did you think of?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao shook his head. "It's hard to say. I'm not sure. Otherwise, Xu Qing, you go back first. I'll tell you when I find it."

Huang Xuqing sat still, leaning forward slightly: "Is it that great writer?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao looked surprised.

Seeing him like this, Huang Yuqing was even more certain of her guess: "My little sister likes to be quiet, she has always valued her privacy, and few people of the opposite sex know her home phone number, let alone call her.

The people who know her home phone number are either her siblings and my parents, or they are work connections, or they are people she cares about.

Among the people my younger sister cares about, Li Heng is the most important one. She has many disagreements with her father about this. He is the first person she suspects. "

Editor-in-Chief Liao said nothing.

If it was really Li Heng, then why did Junior Brother pretend to be Zouping? It was obvious that he didn't want the Huang family to know.

Therefore, Editor-in-Chief Liao, who did not want to offend his junior, remained silent and was extremely cautious.

After a long stalemate, Huang Yuqing broke the deadlock and asked, "Did my younger sister come back to see you some time ago?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao shook his head: "No."

Huang Xuqing further asked: "How long has it been since you and my little sister last met?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao recalled, "It's been almost two months since I last saw her. I haven't seen her since Xiao Liuyue went abroad."

Huang Xuqing nodded and asked, "Can you tell me more about Li Heng? For example, his personal information, etc."

Editor-in-Chief Liao looked embarrassed.

Because they really knew the basic situation of the junior. After all, he was the most popular writer in the magazine. Even if they didn't know the detailed information, they still had the most basic personal information.

After another stalemate, Huang Yuqing stood up and said, "Sorry to bother Editor Liao today. I'll go to Fudan University and ask Liu Jia. As a counselor, she should have a file."

Instructor Liu Jia is Huang's cousin and was able to get this job because of the Huang family's connections. It was through her that Huang Zhaoyi gave Li Heng the flute and erhu.

Hearing this, and hearing that the address changed from "Brother Liao" to Editor-in-Chief Liao, Editor-in-Chief Liao smiled bitterly, knowing that this girl was dissatisfied with him, and immediately waved his hand:

"Forget it! If I don't tell you, you will just waste some time going to Fudan University, and I will have to bear the reputation of being heartless.

Alas, it’s difficult to be stuck in the middle, neither side is a good person.”

After saying that, Editor-in-Chief Liao poured himself a cup of tea.

Huang Xuqing smiled and sat back down.

She asked: "Which town in Hui County, Shaoyang is Li Heng from?"

Because it was on the Spring Festival Gala, the information was not kept secret. Editor-in-Chief Liao said: "Qianzhen, Dawan Village."

Huang Xuqing asked: "How tall is Li Heng? How much does he weigh? What month and day was his birthday?"

She asked several questions in a row, but her real purpose was to ask about birthdays.

If I remember correctly, my younger sister was originally going to Hong Kong, but she suddenly came back halfway. Something must have happened. That day happened to be the Dragon Boat Festival.

Editor Liao didn't understand why she asked these questions, but thinking that Liu Jia and Liu Yue knew about it, he didn't hide it: "About 180cm with shoes, unknown weight, birthday in May of the lunar calendar."

"May? Which day?" Huang Xuqing's heart trembled, feeling that the truth was about to come out.

Editor-in-Chief Liao was curious: "Why do you ask this?"

Huang Xuqing said: "I want to read Li Heng's horoscope to see if he and my little sister are destined to be together."

Editor-in-Chief Liao was speechless. "The fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar."

Huang Xuqing asked anxiously: "On the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao said, “That’s right.”

It was indeed Li Heng, and it was indeed the Dragon Boat Festival. Now everything was right. Huang Yuqing didn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world.

The question is: How did I get in touch with Li Heng? Didn't he ignore me?
If I hadn't gone to my younger sister's house with my mother to help with cleaning and hadn't happened to receive the call, I would have never known about this and would have been kept in the dark.

ps: Change first and then change.
