Ma Xiaoyao picked up the phone and looked at it: "Huh?" It was Tang Mingchuan. Ma Xiaoyao slowly pressed the answer button: "Director Tang, how come you, a busy man, have time to call me? Didn't you?
When you woke up, you dialed the wrong number in a daze?"
"I heard a hint of complaint in your tone." Tang Mingchuan smiled bitterly: "You must still be angry with me, angry that I didn't fulfill my promise, right?" More than a month ago, Tang Mingchuan promised to help Ma Xiaoyao.
To deal with the temple, unexpectedly Tang Mingchuan left midway, saying he was going to deal with the Blood Wolf Society, but Ma Xiaoyao was furious.
"You are a big leader, how dare I be angry with you." Ma Xiaoyao pouted.
"What a big boss, I'm just an errand boy." Tang Mingchuan smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, don't be angry. It was my fault last time. I apologize to you. In fact, you can't blame me. The superior leader ordered me to go
To deal with the Blood Wolf Society, I can only follow the arrangements... For more than a month, I have been worried about you, and I have been in touch with my subordinates every now and then to inquire about your situation."
"Do you really care about me that much?" Ma Xiaoyao snorted.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask my subordinates." Tang Mingchuan said: "You have known me for a long time. You should know what kind of person I, Tang Mingchuan, am. I will never lie to deceive my friends.
."
Hearing that Tang Mingchuan had always cared about him, Ma Xiaoyao's resentment eased a little.
"The headquarters of the Blood Wolf Society has been eradicated. I will return to China in a few days. Then I will help you deal with the temple!" Tang Mingchuan said.
"Are you sure? You won't leave halfway, right?" Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "To be honest, I have no trust in you now."
"It won't happen this time. I promise you with my personality! Oh... the leader is looking for me. I won't tell you now. I will go find you immediately after I return to China." After saying that, Tang Mingchuan hung up.
Telephone.
Ma Xiaoyao chirped: "Tang Mingchuan, if you don't keep your word this time, I will definitely break off our relationship with you!"
…
at dusk.
Zhao Zilong dragged his exhausted body back home. As soon as he walked in, he was scolded severely by his wife Ding Jie.
"Zhao Zilong, let me ask you, did you reprimand Tianyou today?" Ding Jie's eyes widened, as if she wanted to eat someone.
Zhao Zilong frowned: "I knew that this boy Tianyou would definitely complain to you! He is already in his thirties, and he is not ashamed to complain to you at every turn!"
"I am his sister. He has been wronged, so of course he has to complain to me." Ding Jie snorted: "Zhao Zilong, Tianyou has been working hard for so many years, and finally got the appreciation of the leader, and he is ready to promote him to the chief of the finance department.
, but why did you ask Tianyou to give up this opportunity for promotion?"
"The situation here is a bit complicated." Zhao Zilong sighed: "Listen to me and explain it carefully."
"Of course I want to listen to your explanation." Ding Jie hummed: "Zhao Zilong, please listen to me. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I will never be done with you!" Ding Jie has always loved his younger brother Ding Tianyou.
Now that Ding Tianyou has been bullied by Zhao Zilong, how can Ding Jie let it go?
"Don't be anxious, come, sit down, and listen to me slowly." Zhao Zilong pulled Ding Jie to sit on the sofa, and then poured Gu Jie a cup of tea with his own hands: "Come, have a sip of tea to calm down the anger."
Ding Jie glanced at Zhao Zilong: "The anger in my heart cannot be eliminated with a cup of tea."
"You, when you get angry, you can choke people to death with your words." Zhao Zilong put the tea cup on the coffee table and sighed softly: "Ding Jie, you should listen to Tianyou. This time it is because Ma Xiaoyao helped, so
Only with God's blessing will you be promoted."
"Yes, Tianyou did tell me." Ding Jie nodded: "Speaking of which, Ma Xiaoyao is really good. You must thank him properly."
The corner of Zhao Zilong's mouth twitched: "Ding Jie, you don't have a fever, do you? You want me to thank Ma Xiaoyao? How is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Ding Jie's eyes widened: "Ma Xiaoyao helped Tianyou. As a brother-in-law, shouldn't you go and thank him?"
"Ding Jie, you know that Ma Xiaoyao and I have a very normal relationship. Strictly speaking, Ma Xiaoyao and I have conflicts!" Zhao Zilong said angrily.
"Bullshit conflict!" Ding Jie pouted: "What kind of conflict can you and Ma Xiaoyao have? It's not all because of the county magistrate Li Ming. Because Li Ming and Ma Xiaoyao don't deal with each other, you have been alienating Ma Xiaoyao and not talking to Ma Xiaoyao.
contacts."
"It's not all because of County Magistrate Li." Zhao Zilong shook his head: "The main reason is that I can't understand Ma Xiaoyao's behavior."
"What's wrong with Ma Xiaoyao's behavior? Why can't you get used to it?" Ding Jie said angrily.
Zhao Zilong curled his lips: "Ma Xiaoyao is too strong and domineering, and he doesn't take anyone seriously..."
"I have the ability to be arrogant!" Ding Jie said disdainfully: "You want to be arrogant but you can't be arrogant!"
"I can't talk to you about going together!" Zhao Zilong stood up and said, "I'm hungry and I'm going to eat." After saying that, Zhao Zilong raised his feet and walked towards the kitchen.
"I didn't cook today." Ding Jie said coldly.
"What? You didn't cook?" Zhao Zilong stopped, turned to look at Ding Jie, and frowned: "Why don't you cook?"
"Not in the mood!" Ding Jie snorted.
"You...you...okay, I can go out to eat." Zhao Zilong snorted and turned to leave.
"How dare you!" Ding Jie stood up suddenly, pointed at Zhao Zilong and said, "If you dare to walk out of this house today, never come back!"
Zhao Zilong slapped his face several times and finally did not dare to walk out of the house. He smiled bitterly and said: "Ding Jie, what do you want..."
"Go and thank Ma Xiaoyao, and then treat Ma Xiaoyao to a nice meal." Ding Jie said in a deep voice.
"It's not that simple." Zhao Zilong took a breath: "Ma Xiaoyao helped Tianyou for a purpose. He wanted to recruit me in this way and wanted me to join his camp..." Zhao Zilong explained sincerely.
: "Ma Xiaoyao won't be satisfied with a simple thank you and a treat."
"Then you go to Ma Xiaoyao." Ding Jie said nonchalantly: "I think you have a much better future with Ma Xiaoyao than with Li Ming."
Zhao Zilong's face darkened: "The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes. I, Zhao Zilong, have principles and will never be a traitor!"
"Bullshit principles!" Ding Jie scolded: "How much are principles worth? Can principles be used as food? Can they be worn as clothes? Can they help you get promoted?" At this point, Ding Jie softened her tone.
"Zhao Zilong, please listen to my advice and stop being stubborn. You will never have a future by following Li Ming... It's better to join Ma Xiaoyao..."
"Stop talking, even if you talk about Po Tian, I will not betray County Magistrate Li." After saying that, Zhao Zilong walked towards the bedroom: "I'm tired, I'm going to bed."
"You're not going to eat!" Ding Jie shouted.
"I won't eat anymore. I'm full!" Zhao Zilong walked into the bedroom and closed the door with a bang.
Ding Jie's face turned blue with anger and her whole body trembled: "I'm so angry, so angry! How could I find such a stubborn husband!"
…
Toho City.
Ding Tianyou hurried to the director's office and greeted Su Baoshan respectfully: "Director Su, I'm here."
Su Baoshan nodded and said expressionlessly: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Director Su." Ding Tianyou thanked him and sat down on the chair carefully.
Su Baoshan glanced at Ding Tianyou: "Xiao Ding, do you want to be the chief of the finance department? If you don't want to be, just tell me and I will replace you immediately!"
"Uh..." Ding Tianyou was stunned: "I... of course I want to be the chief of the finance department..."
"Since you want to be the chief of the finance department, why would you do such a thing?" Su Baoshan's tone was very cold and his face became ugly.
"I...what did I do..." Ding Tianyou looked confused.
"Your brother-in-law went to find Ma Xiaoyao and ask Ma Xiaoyao not to interfere with your affairs." Su Baoshan said coldly.
"Ah?" Ding Tianyou's eyes suddenly widened: "Is there such a thing?"
Su Baoshan breathed out softly: "Ma Xiaoyao helped you with good intentions, but you didn't appreciate it. He actually asked your brother-in-law to find trouble with Ma Xiaoyao, saying that Ma Xiaoyao was meddling in other people's business... It's okay now, Ma Xiaoyao
If you don’t want to or are annoyed, call me directly and ask me not to promote you anymore.”
"Ah!" Ding Tianyou's expression suddenly changed and he stood up hastily: "Director Su... there must be a misunderstanding..."
"Is there any misunderstanding?" Su Baoshan snorted coldly: "Your brother-in-law has made it so clear that Ma Xiaoyao will not be allowed to meddle in his own business! Okay, you can go out, I have nothing to say to you." After that,
Su Baoshan lowered his head to read a document and stopped talking to Ding Tianyou.
"Director Su, I really don't know about this matter... Director Su... please give me another chance..." Ding Tianyou hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Ding Tianyou, you have to make one thing clear. The reason why I promoted you is for Ma Xiaoyao's sake. In other words, if Ma Xiaoyao is not willing to help you, I will not promote you. You
Do you understand?" Su Baoshan said word for word.
Ding Tianyou was stunned, then nodded: "I understand... I know what to do."
"Now that you understand, let's go out." Su Baoshan waved his hand impatiently.
"Hey." Ding Tianyou responded, turned around and walked out of the office, closing the door. Ding Tianyou's face suddenly darkened. He took out his mobile phone and was about to call Zhao Zilong. As soon as he dialed a few numbers, Ding Tianyou stopped and pondered.
After a while, Ding Tianyou deleted the number he entered, and then called his sister Ding Jie.
As soon as the call was connected, Ding Tianyou said loudly: "Sister, are you trying to force me to death?"
