Seeing Li Youwei's dazed expression, Qiao Liang couldn't help but say, "Boss, if you are still in the system, you might be a member of the city team now."

"It's not that easy." Li Youwei waved his hand with a smile, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. There is no if in this world. Besides, I'm pretty good now. I've found a hobby again. I'm more interested in doing business now."

Qiao Liang didn't say anything, he could feel that Li Youwei's words were a bit against his will. Li Youwei must have regrets about being forced to leave the system.

"What are you two muttering at the door? Old Li, why don't you hurry up and call Liangzi to come in for dinner?" Li Youwei's wife Gu Shuyun walked out of the kitchen with the soup and shouted.

There was already a table of steaming dishes on the table. Qiao Liang walked in and smiled, "Sister-in-law, you are too enthusiastic. Every time I come, you cook so many dishes."

"Isn't this just for you to eat, Lao Li and I want to eat too," Gu Shuyun said with a smile.

"Come on, sit down and eat, let's have a good drink tonight." Li Youwei asked Qiao Liang to sit down, and he had already picked up a bottle of wine and poured it up.

"Boss, I'll pour it." Qiao Liang snatched the bottle and stood up to pour wine for Li Youwei. He always maintained his sincere respect for Li Youwei. In his heart, Li Youwei was his first mentor on his life journey.

Seeing this, Li Youwei did not stop him and joked, "Today I will enjoy the treatment of the city leader and ask County Mayor Qiao to pour wine."

"Boss, if you want to, I will pour you wine every day." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

"Don't, I can't afford to delay County Mayor Qiao's job." Li Youwei laughed, "And I drink less now. The group's affairs are getting busier and busier, and I have no time to drink."

When Qiao Liang heard Li Youwei mention the group, he couldn't help but ask, "How is the group developing this year?"

"Very good, it can be said that the situation is very good." Li Youwei smiled, "The group's performance has grown rapidly this year, and it is expected that its net profit may reach a record high."

Qiao Liang said happily after hearing this, "This is the reward for the good things of Zhengtai Group. As a listed company, Zhengtai Group has responsibility and responsibility, and actively gives back to the society, and deserves good rewards."

"When it comes to giving back to society, now that the company is getting bigger and bigger, I have a deeper understanding of this. If a company does not even have the minimum social responsibility, it is impossible to grow bigger." Li Youwei said deeply.

"You are right. Enterprises must have social responsibility, otherwise it will be meaningless no matter how big they are." Qiao Liang nodded and said, "Boss, Xiaoya is the most correct choice to hand over Zhengtai Group to you."

Speaking of Fang Xiaoya, Li Youwei glanced at Qiao Liang, "Xiao Qiao, have you been in contact with Xiaoya recently?"

"Not recently." Qiao Liang shook his head.

"Actually, you and Xiaoya are quite compatible." Li Youwei looked at Qiao Liang, "I can feel that Xiaoya likes you very much. You happen to be single now, why don't you consider her?"

"Boss, I always treat Xiaoya as my sister." Qiao Liang smiled dryly.

"It's not your dear sister." Li Youwei looked at Qiao Liang with a funny look, "Liangzi, when it comes to this, I have to criticize you. If Xiaoya is such a good woman, if you miss it, you won't even take medicine for regret in the future."

Qiao Liang smiled bitterly. He had a deep relationship with Fang Xiaoya, but for some reason, he could not inspire that kind of emotion between men and women, but more of a kind of sibling affection. Therefore, when dealing with Fang Xiaoya, he always maintained a very restrained relationship, rather than letting simple instincts and desires control himself.

When he heard Li Youwei mention Qiao Liang and Fang Xiaoya, Gu Shuyun on the side also got gossiped and asked with a smile, "Liangzi, to be honest, do you really don't like girls like Xiaoya who are beautiful, kind and rich?"

"Sister-in-law, I have always liked Xiaoya, but my love for her is the kind of love my brother and sister." Qiao Liang said seriously.

Gu Shuyun was so amused and laughed at the sound of this, "I really don't understand that your young people are now. If I were to be a man, I would have married a girl like Fang Xiaoya long ago."

"It is because you don't understand that you are old. Young people nowadays have their own ideas, which are different from our era." Li Youwei smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Fate is unforgivable. If Liangzi and Xiaoya are destined, they will be together sooner or later. If there is no fate, no matter how others match it up, it will be useless."

Li Youwei didn't want to say too much about Qiao Liang's personal affairs, so as not to put too much pressure on Qiao Liang. However, Li Youwei still reminded him seriously, "Xiao Qiao, you are a leading cadre of a certain level now. You really have to consider the major issues of marriage earlier. You can't be single all the time."

"Well, I know." Qiao Liang nodded and answered a little perfunctorily. He was not prepared for this matter at all, and he didn't even know how to choose.

The two quickly skipped the topic, Qiao Liang picked up the wine glass and said, "Boss, I'll give you a glass."

"Okay, County Magistrate Qiao to me, then I will do this glass of wine no matter what, otherwise I will be disrespectful to County Magistrate Qiao." Li Youwei said with a smile.

"Boss, you're making fun of me again. In front of you, I will always be a Liangzi." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

"If you become the mayor one day, I will not dare to call you Liangzi." Li Youwei joked.

"That's very far away...even impossible." Qiao Liang smiled.

"This is hard to say. The ancients said it well. Are there any kings, princes, generals and ministers? How do you know that you cannot be the mayor in the future? The masters cannot be arrogant, but they cannot be without ambition." Li Youwei laughed, "Besides, when you first entered the civil service exam, would you dare to think that you could become the county magistrate one day?"

"I really didn't dare to think at that time. Not to mention the county magistrate, the deputy county magistrate dared not think." Qiao Liang's eyes showed a look of recollection, as if he thought of the young self when he was young.

Not only Qiao Liang, but Li Youwei looked at Qiao Liang in front of him and was also deeply moved. The young man under his former son, who was still a young man in his eyes, has grown into a county chief and is also the youngest county magistrate in Jiangdong Province. If it were in the past, Li Youwei would not have dared to imagine Qiao Liang's achievements, but the things in this world are so mysterious, the future is unpredictable, but it is often unexpected.

The two of them were drinking and chatting, and before they knew it, it was nine o'clock. Qiao Liang had fun with Li Youwei tonight. They killed a bottle of white wine and a bottle of red wine. In the end, Li Youwei called to stop first, otherwise they would have to continue drinking.

After drinking from Li Youwei's house, Qiao Liang took a car back to the apartment he rented, and he had to stay in the city for the night.

When he took the bus to the entrance of the apartment he rented, Qiao Liang looked out the window and saw two familiar figures. He was stunned and hurriedly asked the driver to stop the car. Qiao Liang's hand that he had originally placed on the car door was also retracted and he did not rush to get off the car.

Standing at the entrance of the community were Song Liang and Shao Bingyu. They didn't know what they were saying, but they saw that Song Liang had a smile on their faces. Qiao Liang saw Song Liang doing something, and seemed to reach out to touch Shao Bingyu, but Shao Bingyu could dodge it lightly. However, Song Liang quickly put down his hand and finally didn't know what to say to Shao Bingyu. Qiao Liang soon saw Song Liang and Shao Bingyu wave goodbye.

Seeing Song Liang leave, Qiao Liang walked out of the car and shouted at Shao Bingyu's back, "Bingyu."

Shao Bingyu turned around when he heard the sound. Seeing that it was Qiao Liang, Shao Bingyu was stunned, "Are you back?"

"Yes, I'll go back to the city tonight." Qiao Liang nodded.

Not knowing what he thought of, Shao Bingyu looked at Qiao Liang, "Did you see it just now?"

"Did you see you and Minister Song standing at the door and chatting?" Qiao Liang asked with a smile.

Shao Bingyu nodded lightly and explained intentionally or unintentionally, "There is a social event in the office tonight, and I also drank some wine. Minister Song was afraid that it would be unsafe for me to come back alone after drinking alone, so he sent me back."

"Oh, then Minister Song is quite concerned about you." Qiao Liang nodded. He didn't want to ask about this at first, but he didn't expect Shao Bingyu to explain on his own initiative.

"Minister Song is very good and he is very kind to the cadres below." Shao Bingyu said another sentence.

Qiao Liang nodded, suddenly not knowing what to say. Since Ye Xinyi was seconded from the province, Qiao Liang discovered that Shao Bingyu had been deliberately avoiding him.

At this moment, Qiao Liang couldn't help but reach out and grabbed Shao Bingyu, "Bingyu..."

Before Qiao Liang finished speaking, Shao Bingyu pushed Qiao Liang's hand away in a panic and said shyly, "What are you doing? You're still outside now."

Hearing Shao Bingyu's words, looking at Shao Bingyu's shy little face, Qiao Liang's body was suddenly hooked up, and he smiled wickedly, "Bingyu, if you are not outside, you can..."

"I didn't say anything, don't guess." Shao Bingyu interrupted Qiao Liang with a red face.

As the two of them were talking, a red dot appeared on Qiao Liang's back, and then slowly moved to the back of Qiao Liang's head, and then slowly stood still, but neither of them noticed it.

Qiao Liang didn't know at this time that a fatal danger was coming. At this moment, when he saw Shao Bingyu's shy and charming posture, he couldn't control his restlessness in his heart, and suddenly hugged Shao Bingyu with one step forward...

It was this move that saved Qiao Liang's life.

At this time, a dull sound of "bang" sounded at the same time.

Qiao Liang's body suddenly froze, and he felt that his entire upper right side of his body had lost consciousness, followed by a piercing pain.

The shot that was supposed to hit Qiao Liang on the back of the head hit Qiao Liang on the right back.

Shao Bingyu didn't know what happened at first, but he was stunned for a moment before he realized that Qiao Liang was shot!

"Ah--" Shao Bingyu screamed because of the fright.

"Qiao Liang, you... are you okay..." Shao Bingyu squatted down in panic, looking at Qiao Liang, who was half kneeling on the ground due to the severe pain, and his face was twisted in pain.

"I...I'm fine..." Qiao Liang replied subconsciously, his mind blank...

The sound of an ambulance sounded.

Minister of Propaganda Song Liang was the first to receive a call for help from Shao Bingyu. When he heard that Qiao Liang was shot, Song Liang was shocked and thought he had heard it wrong. Until he confirmed it, Song Liang quickly comforted Shao Bingyu, and quickly called the city hospital to help arrange the best doctor.

After making the phone call, Song Liang was still a little shocked. The news was so sudden and scary.

After a brief loss of consciousness, Song Liang suddenly thought of the former old leader Liao Gufeng's concern and love for Qiao Liang, and suddenly came to his senses. Yes, this matter must be reported to Liao Gufeng immediately, otherwise he would definitely be criticized by Liao Gufeng when he turned around.
