Xu Chan lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something. She raised her head for a while and gritted her teeth: "Brother Qiao, I'll tell you, but you must keep it a secret."

Xu Chan was extremely reluctant to let Qiao Liang think that she had that kind of relationship with Zhao Qiang, but she also knew that if she didn't want Qiao Liang to misunderstand, she had to tell the truth.

"If you don't believe me, don't say it." Qiao Liang looked elsewhere and said coldly.

"Of course I believe you. I know that if I don't say it, you will definitely misunderstand that Zhao Qiang and I have a relationship with each other. So, in order not to let you misunderstand, I decided to tell you. It's just that this involves Zhao Qiang's high personal privacy. Please don't tell me." Xu Chan said earnestly.

Qiao Liang couldn't help but wonder, what kind of high privacy does this kid Zhao Qiang have in Xu Chan's hands?

Qiao Liang turned his face to look at Xu Chan: "Tell me, I won't tell anyone."

Xu Chan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Zhao Qiang is gay."

"What?" Qiao Liang was stunned and looked at Xu Chan directly.

Xu Chan nodded affirmatively: "No one knows this, even his family. Only I know it. I knew it when I was in high school. He had a good relationship with me, but he just treated me as a very good friend, but he didn't have that kind of meaning."

Qiao Liang stared at Xu Chan in a daze. It turned out that this was the case with Zhao Qiang. It turned out that he had this kind of sexual orientation. He was with him every day and was unaware of it.

This is understandable. In secular society and in the face of traditional concepts, Zhao Qiang's sexual orientation is not accepted by the public, so he tried his best to conceal it.

No wonder Zhao Qiang has never found a girlfriend, so that's it.

Xu Chan continued: "Because of this situation, Zhao Qiang has always been very inferior in his heart, afraid that he will be ridiculed by others. On the one hand, he has been looking for various reasons not to have a girlfriend. On the other hand, he is in pain in the face of the urging and pressure of his family."

Qiao Liang suddenly felt very sympathetic to Zhao Qiang. It turned out that this guy had such a big secret hidden in his heart. This is indeed a high degree of privacy and must be kept confidential.

Xu Chan continued: "Actually, I feel very sympathetic to Zhao Qiang's situation and want to help him. I consulted a psychiatrist in private. The doctor said that most of his situation was born, not what he originally wanted to do."

Qiao Liang nodded: "Actually, this should be respected and tolerated."

Xu Chan also nodded: "Although that said, reality is reality after all. In fact, it is not uncommon for people with this kind of sexual orientation around us. It is just that they fear the secular concepts of society and dare not reveal them publicly. They hide deeply and are extremely difficult to find out. Some people even get married and have children, but the married life after marriage is useless..."

Speaking of this, Xu Chan stopped, sighed deeply, with a look of pain on her face.

After hearing what Xu Chan said, Qiao Liang was a little surprised when Xu Chan lived in a small county town. How could she know so much about it? And her expression still looked a little painful.

Then Qiao Liang thought that now is the Internet age, and Xu Chan will naturally know this as long as she explores it carefully. And her pain should be for Zhao Qiang.

Qiao Liang was immediately moved and felt that Xu Chan was very friendly to Zhao Qiang.

"Xu Chan, thank you for your trust in me." Qiao Liang said.

Xu Chan smiled and said, "Brother Qiao, you deserve my trust."

"Don't worry, no second person will know what you told me tonight." Qiao Liang patted Xu Chan on the shoulder, "Let's go."

"Yes." Xu Chan took the initiative to hold Qiao Liang's arm.

Qiao Liang did not refuse.

Once you know the true relationship between Xu Chan and Zhao Qiang, know the situation of Zhao Qiang, and be with Xu Chan like this, Qiao Liang felt relaxed and no longer had any uneasiness and guilt.

When he was about to arrive at the hotel, Qiao Liang patted Xu Chan's hand, and Xu Chan tactfully pulled his hand out of Qiao Liang's arm.

Qiao Liang stopped and looked at Xu Chan: "Are you happy tonight?"

Xu Chan nodded: "Happy, I haven't been so happy for a long time. Brother Qiao, thank you really."

"Thank you for each other, you will accompany me for a walk in the movies, and I should thank you too."

Xu Chan smiled softly, looked at Qiao Liang deeply, suddenly stood on tiptoe, hugged Qiao Liang's neck, and quickly kissed Qiao Liang's mouth.

Qiao Liang was stunned, Xu Chan then let go, with a little shy face on her face, then turned around and walked quickly towards the hotel door.

Looking at Xu Chan's beautiful figure, Qiao Liang smacked his lips. It tasted good. I didn't expect that this girl was so bold and proactive.

Seeing Xu Chan enter the hotel, Qiao Liang reminisces for a moment, then slowly enters the hotel and returns to the VIP building.

After going upstairs, Qiao Liang walked to Anzhe's door, listened with his ear against the crack of the door for a while, without any movement.

It seems that Ren Quan has left and An Zhe has rested.

Qiao Liang also went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, Qiao Liang stared at the dark ceiling in a daze. This time he came to Huangyuan, he had a lot of ambiguous relationships. He first had Xiaotao the night before, and Wu Huiwen last night, and Xu Chan again tonight.

But these are just ambiguous things and they didn't do it really, which made Qiao Liang slightly regretful, but he was still happy.

In the darkness, Qiao Liang laughed silently...

The next morning, Qiao Liang was having breakfast with An Zhe and received a call from Qin Chuan.

"Xiao Qiao, will Secretary An return to Jiangzhou this morning?"

Qiao Liang looked at An Zhe: "Secretary An, Secretary Qin asked you if you will go back to Jiangzhou in the morning?"

An Zheyi stretched out his hand: "Give me the phone."

"Secretary-General Qin, wait a moment, Secretary An wants to talk to you." Qiao Liang then handed the phone to An Zhe. An Zhe pressed the phone to him and put his phone on the table. He continued to eat, "Secretary-General Qin, is there anything wrong?"

Qin Chuan said: "Secretary An, if you can go back to Jiangzhou in the morning, according to the arrangements of the city leaders' visits and condolences before the festival, you plan to visit the old cadres in the city in the afternoon."

"Is there any content of visits to the county?"

"Yes, according to the division of labor of the Standing Committee, you have to visit Yangshan to visit and comfort the needy employees, and go to Sanjiang to visit the old revolutionary and the old supporters..."

"Then I will go directly from Huangyuan to Yangshan today, and then to Sanjiang tomorrow." An Zhe interrupted Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then said tactfully: "Secretary An, when are you going to visit the old cadres? Today is the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month. When you come back from Sanjiang, it is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the next day is New Year's Eve."

Qin Chuan's arrangement is that An Zhe visited the old cadres this afternoon and went to Yangshan and Sanjiang tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If the time is too fast, even Sanjiang will not go. After all, veteran cadres are important, and visiting them again as New Year's Eve is approaching. The time is too late and too hasty, which also makes them disrespectful to the old cadres.

An Zhe thought for a moment: "The old cadres are very important. You can't delay visiting them. Please arrange other members of the Standing Committee to go."

Qiao Liang was stunned when he listened. An Zhe was a little neglected at the last tea party of veteran cadres, and this time he pushed him again.

Qin Chuan was also stunned: "Secretary An, is this appropriate?"

"Why is it not suitable? Is it only the old cadres who are important, and the needy workers and old revolutionary support are not important?" An Zhe asked back.

Qin Chuan laughed and thought to himself, "I'm confused, it's just right if you don't go, let Luo Fei go, this good opportunity will be taken away again."

Qin Chuan then said, "Then I will arrive at Yangshan at noon to meet you."

According to convention, when the municipal party secretary is dispatched, the secretary general is usually accompanied by Qin Chuan's words.

An Zhe said: "Your slap is not a lot. Don't mess with me, I can do it myself."

"Oh, okay then." Qin Chuan said.

An Zhe hung up the phone, returned the phone to Qiao Liang, and then said, "After the meal, go to the provincial party committee's family courtyard first, and then go to Yangshan."

Qiao Liang blinked, wondering what An Zhe was going to the provincial party committee’s family compound.
