Qiao Liang has been thinking about her life-long events these past two days. When she was on the phone with her parents, Qiao Liang briefly mentioned that Liao Gufeng was coming over, and at the same time asked her parents to prepare in advance, dress more formally, and arrive together. Pick up at the airport.
After calling her parents, Qiao Liang took a lunch break. Just after going to work in the afternoon, Qiao Liang received a call from Zhang Tianfu. Seeing that it was Zhang Tianfu, Qiao Liang was a little surprised. This guy had not had much contact with her. , why did you suddenly call yourself?
Qiao Liang answered the phone and heard Zhang Tianfu's laughter, "Qiao Liang, I heard that you have been promoted. Now I want to call you Secretary Qiao?"
Qiao Liang smiled calmly and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are mistaken. I was just transferred to the disciplinary department, not promoted."
The relationship between Qiao Liang and Zhang Tianfu was average, and they didn't have much contact, so although they were classmates, Qiao Liang called Mr. Zhang politely, which somewhat showed Qiao Liang's distant attitude.
Zhang Tianfu seemed unable to hear it and said with a smile, "In any case, it is promotion and reuse. As an old classmate, I must celebrate you. I have reserved a box at Jiangzhou Hotel for the evening. Qiao Liang, you must Come over."
Qiao Liang curled his lips, what the heck, he was transferred from the post of county magistrate to the city discipline department as the executive deputy secretary, how could he be considered a promotion? This Zhang Tianfu couldn't even speak, and now he heard the other party say that he wanted to celebrate , Qiao Liang was even too lazy to go, and directly evaded, "Mr. Zhang, I have a case analysis meeting to be held in the evening, I'm afraid I don't have time to go there."
Zhang Tianfu immediately said, "Qiao Liang, that's okay. I'll wait for you. I'll drive to pick you up when you finish the meeting."
Qiao Liang said, "Mr. Zhang, there's no need to be so polite. I really don't have time today. Let's have dinner together next time we have a chance."
After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he hung up the phone. On the other side of the phone, Zhang Tianfu was stunned as he held his cell phone. Damn it, Qiao Liang was too disrespectful to his old classmate, so he just hung up the phone.
On the side, Wei Xiaobei looked at Zhang Tianfu, "Qiao Liang doesn't want to come out?"
Zhang Tianfu said sarcastically, "This guy Qiao Liang is really fucked up. He always acts like he is aloof."
"Master Zhang, if we can't even date Qiao Liang, then our plan will become a joke." Wei Xiaobei said.
Zhang Tianfu had previously sworn to Wei Xiaobei and Xu Honggang that he could definitely get Qiao Liang out in Haikou. If this failed to happen, it would be really embarrassing.
Naturally, Zhang Tianfu couldn't afford to lose this face, so he patted his chest and said, "Mr. Wei, do you think I've kept my promise and failed to do what I said? Don't worry, if I say I can date Qiao Liang, I guarantee that I can date her."
Zhang Tianfu said, looking for the third child's phone number from the phone's address book. Damn it, if Qiao Liang doesn't give him face, he will always give the third child face. Since he can't make a date with Qiao Liang, he will instigate the third child to come forward.
Time flew by and it was evening. Qiao Liang worked overtime in the office for a while. When he was about to leave, his cell phone rang. Seeing that it was the third child calling, Qiao Liang picked up the phone casually, "Second child, what are you doing?"
"Lao Wu, where are you? Let's go out for a drink. The rich man is going to treat you to a seafood feast tonight. Come over here, you're in for a treat." The voice of Lao San came over.
"Really? Which rich man is treating us?" Qiao Liang asked with a smile.
"Who else could it be? Of course it's Zhang Tianfu, a local tycoon in our class. He has been coming to Jiangzhou in the past two days." The third child said with a smile.
When Qiao Liang heard that it was Zhang Tianfu's invitation, he frowned and instinctively did not want to go there. At this time, the third child said again, "Lao Wu, come here quickly. We are waiting for you in box 808 of Jiangzhou Hotel."
"Lao San, I'm busy and don't have time to go there." Qiao Liang curled his lips and said.
"Tsk, how long have you been off work? What are you still busy with? Come here quickly, or I will go directly to the city compound to drag you over." The third child said.
Qiao Liang was speechless, this guy Lao San was really capable of doing this kind of thing.
After thinking for a while, Qiao Liang thought that since the third child was there, it would be okay for him to go over there. If it was only Zhang Tianfu, he really wouldn't bother to pay attention.
On the other end of the phone, the third child urged, "Lao Wu, come quickly. I'll give you half an hour. If you don't arrive in half an hour, I'll drag you here."
Qiao Liang said angrily, "Why are you in a hurry? I have something to do at hand. I'll be there when I'm done."
After hearing this, the third child said, "Okay, I'll wait for you, so hurry up."
Qiao Liang nodded. After hanging up the phone, he was about to leave. He made another pot of tea in the office and started drinking it. He just told Zhang Tianfu in the afternoon that he had something to do in the evening. Naturally, he couldn't call because of his third son.
Come over immediately.
In the hotel room, Zhang Tianfu saw that the third child had finished making a phone call and asked hurriedly, "Is Qiao Liang coming over?"
The third child grinned and said, "I don't even know who is calling. I'll call the fifth child. He will definitely come over."
Hearing the answer from the third brother, Zhang Tianfu looked happy and exchanged glances with Wei Xiaobei. Zhang Tianfu smiled and said, "Lao Yang, you are still the best. Now that Qiao Liangguan is getting bigger and bigger, only you can invite him.
, Qiao Liang doesn’t even pay attention to someone like me, and will ignore me even if I want to invite him to dinner.”
The name of the third child is Yang Yong. Except for the classmates in the Qiao Liang University dormitory who are accustomed to calling him "Lao San", everyone else calls him by his first name. Zhang Tianfu showed an attitude of being close to the third child, so he called him "Lao San".
'.
The third child smiled and said, "Tianfu, you may have misunderstood. The fifth child is indeed busy. I just asked him to come over, and he also said that it would take a while. There is still something to be busy with now."
Zhang Tianfu blinked, "Really?"
The third child said, "That must be true. The fifth child is a real person. Why did he lie to us?"
Zhang Tianfu smiled nonchalantly. Qiao Liang didn't want to see him, so he might not be telling the truth, but none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was that Qiao Liang would come over, and that was what Zhang Tianfu cared about.
Zhang Tianfu glanced at Wei Xiaobei, who nodded in understanding, stood up, said he wanted to go out for a smoke, and walked out of the box.
Wei Xiaobei came out to call Xu Honggang and informed him that he had successfully arranged an appointment with Qiao Liang.
After Wei Xiaobei finished making the phone call, he took a chance to smoke a cigarette outside before returning to the box.
About thirty minutes passed before Qiao Liang slowly came over. When Zhang Tianfu saw Qiao Liang enter, he stood up and greeted her with a smile on his face, "Qiao Liang, you're here. It's not easy to treat you to a meal."
Qiao Liang smiled lightly and said, "I am quite busy now and often work overtime."
The third child nodded in agreement, "Yes, this is true. Even if I want to have dinner with the fifth child, I have to make a reservation in advance."
Zhang Tianfu said with a smile, "It seems that being a leader is not easy, Qiao Liang, the more you become the official, the more you have to pay attention to your health. You are the best in our class now, and many people in the class regard you as
You idol is here. Whether our class can have a big leader in the future depends entirely on you. You must take good care of yourself. After all, you bear the hope of our class."
When Qiao Liang heard Zhang Tianfu's words, he smiled calmly and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are flattering me by saying that. I am just an ordinary public official."
Zhang Tianfu laughed and said, "Qiao Liang, are you being too modest? I have never heard that department-level cadres are ordinary public servants."
The two of them were talking, and Qiao Liang's eyes fell on Wei Xiaobei, with some doubts in his eyes, wondering why Wei Xiaobei was here?
When Wei Xiaobei saw Qiao Liang looking at him, he stood up and said with a smile, "Secretary Qiao, Mr. Zhang is treating you tonight, and I'm here to share the meal. It's not in vain, Mr. Zhang's seafood feast is quite sumptuous. "
Following Wei Xiaobei's words, Zhang Tianfu also walked up and said, "Qiao Liang, you are late. We have already had a round of drinks just now. Come on, let us toast you first."
Qiao Liang waved his hands and said, "Forget it about drinking. Let's just eat and chat. We have work to do tomorrow. Drinking can easily cause trouble."
Zhang Tianfu frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "Qiao Liang, will you be okay after a few drinks? I'm not so drunk that it won't delay things."
Zhang Tianfu said and looked at Lao San, "I just heard Lao Yang say that your drinking capacity has been unfathomable since you entered the system. I was still a little dissatisfied and told Lao Yang that I wanted to compare my drinking capacity with you. "
When Qiao Liang heard what Zhang Tianfu said, he glanced at Lao San and secretly scolded Lao San for his habit of talking about running on trains.
The third child didn't know what Qiao Liang was thinking. When he saw Qiao Liang looking at him like this, he said, "I'm right, the fifth child, you really have a good drinking capacity now. Even I can't drink you."
After finishing speaking, the third child walked over to Qiao Liang, pulled Qiao Liang over and said, "Lao Wu, sit next to me. Tianfu is treating you tonight. We are all old classmates. Let's have a drink here and there, just for the sake of it." "
Zhang Tianfu followed with a smile and said, "That's right, let's just talk about it. Qiao Liang, we must drink this glass of wine. You are promoted this time, no matter what, I have to toast you with a glass of wine. I wish you great success in the future."
Qiao Liang corrected him, "Mr. Zhang, I am being promoted this time, not promoted."
Zhang Tianfu smiled and said, "It's all the same. In my opinion, it's only a matter of time before you get promoted."
As Zhang Tianfu spoke, he poured wine for Qiao Liang from a new wine glass, and picked up a glass of wine himself, "Come, let's toast Qiao Liang together and wish Qiao Liang further success."
Qiao Liang saw that Zhang Tianfu had brought the wine to him, so he had no choice but to accept it. This was a matter of dealing with others. No matter how much he didn't like Zhang Tianfu in his heart, he couldn't be too rude at this time.
The third child also joined in the fun and said, "The fifth child, let's have a drink. It's rare that I'm happy tonight. I haven't had a drink with you for a long time."
Qiao Liang nodded, "Then let's have a drink, but we agreed first that we will only drink this one glass. I have something to do tomorrow and I really can't drink more."
Zhang Tianfu said with a smile, "Then just have a drink. Your work is important, and we certainly can't delay your work tomorrow. Let's have a good drink next time we have a chance."
Qiao Liang didn't say much. He raised his glass and drank the wine. Qiao Liang sat down on the seat next to the third child and glanced at Zhang Tianfu. "Mr. Zhang, you are the one who came to Jiangzhou this time." Does Fucheng Group want to invest in any projects in Jiangzhou?"
