Zhao Xiaolan personally cooked for the family dinner at noon, making six sumptuous dishes and one soup. At the dinner table, in addition to Luo Fei and Zhao Xiaolan, Chu Heng, and Zhao Xiaolan's younger brother Zhao Xiaoyang also came.
Today, except for the outsider Chu Heng, it can be said that they are all members of Luo Fei's own family.
The situation in Luo Fei's family can be said to be that one person has achieved enlightenment. Not only Luo Fei is proud and high-spirited, but his wife Zhao Xiaolan and brother-in-law Zhao Xiaoyang are also glowing. Especially Zhao Xiaoyang, who used to rely on Luo Fei's relationship to be extremely arrogant and domineering. Now,
Luo Fei became the top leader in Jiangzhou, and Zhao Xiaoyang was overjoyed. He would be able to go anywhere in Jiangzhou from now on.
As for Zhao Xiaolan, because her husband was promoted to the top position, she was very happy. Her head had been in a state of excitement from morning to now. She was finally the wife of the boss of Jiangzhou! This feeling made Zhao Xiaolan more excited than ever before, and she just wanted to find someone to vent to.
With the feeling of pleasure in her heart, Zhao Xiaolan subconsciously thought of Wei Xiaobei's handsome face, and her heart felt hot. Thinking of the scene of Wei Xiaobei's lips and teeth brushing against her body, Zhao Xiaolan's body felt like an electric shock, all over her body.
He felt weak for a while and his face flushed.
The three siblings, Luo Fei and the Zhao family, had different thoughts and different expressions on their faces. Only Chu Heng, an outsider, glanced across the three faces and smiled faintly.
When Zhao Xiaolan's eyes met Chu Heng, her heart trembled. Thinking of the handle that Chu Heng held on her, Zhao Xiaolan felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her, and her excitement suddenly dropped a lot.
Luo Fei greeted Chu Heng to eat the food and said with a smile: "Old Chu, do you know why I only invited you to this family dinner at noon?"
"I don't know, please ask Secretary Luo for advice." Chu Heng sat up straight with a respectful posture.
"Oh, Old Chu, look at you, this is your own home, why are you acting like this?" Luo Fei smiled and nodded at Chu Heng from the air. He said this, but Luo Fei was satisfied in his heart.
Very well, the word 'Secretary Luo' made Luo Fei even more excited. When he first took charge of the work of Jiangzhou City, some of his confidants privately called him Secretary Luo, but Luo Fei always felt that what he heard then was not what he hears now.
comfortable.
"Lao Chu, relax, this is your own home, there are no outsiders." Luo Fei continued to smile.
Chu Heng nodded when he heard this, poured the wine with a smile, stood up and said: "Secretary Luo, today is your family banquet at noon. I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha's greetings. I will give Secretary Luo a drink first and wish Secretary Luo a prosperous future."
"Okay." Luo Fei nodded with a smile, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Chu Heng.
At this time, Chu Heng also deliberately lowered the mouth of his cup, showing his respectful gesture again.
Chu Heng's appearance made Luo Fei more and more satisfied. On the side, Zhao Xiaolan felt chills in her heart when she saw Chu Heng's appearance. In her eyes, Chu Heng looked more and more like a poisonous snake. It usually lay dormant, but at critical moments
He will come out and give you a fatal blow. Such a person is too scary and dangerous, but Zhao Xiaolan did not dare to say anything to her husband.
Luo Fei and Chu Heng took a sip of wine, smacked their lips, and said: "Old Chu, you also know that I have become the secretary now, but the province has no intention of letting me relieve myself of the mayor's responsibility for the time being. In other words, in the future, I will be the secretary.
Within a short period of time, I may have to shoulder the responsibility of the secretary and mayor. In the future, I will have a lot of courage on my shoulders. Old Chu, as the executive deputy of the city, you have to help me share more of my burdens."
"Secretary Luo, don't worry, I will definitely help you share your worries. I will do my best to complete all the tasks assigned by Secretary Luo." Chu Heng vowed.
"Okay, very good." Luo Feixiao laughed and clapped his hands, "Old Chu, with you here, I feel much more at ease. I believe that together in the future, we will be able to build Jiangzhou better and better and create a better future."
What a great political achievement.”
When Chu Heng heard Luo Fei's words, a trace of contempt flashed in his heart. It wasn't that he looked down on Luo Fei, but that Luo Fei really didn't have that ability. Although Luo Fei was able to work his way through the system and get to where he is today, he still had some ability.
, but in Chu Heng’s view
, Luo Fei's situation is far worse than his own. Sometimes Chu Heng even scolds Luo Fei in his heart for being a fool. That is to say, Luo Fei is very lucky. I don't know what kind of bullshit luck he got, and he got on the path of Guan Xinmin.
Otherwise, the position of secretary would never fall to Luo Fei.
Of course, no matter how much he looked down on Luo Fei in his heart, Chu Hengming remained completely humble on his face. No matter how jealous and envious he was, he still had to do the right thing.
"By the way, didn't the higher-ups say anything about the candidate for the mayor's position?" Chu Heng couldn't help but ask.
"Old Chu, I thought you could keep your composure and not ask about this matter." Luo Fei grinned and patted Chu Heng on the shoulder, "Old Chu, don't worry, I have been worrying about this matter.
Since you are thinking about it, I also asked the leader specifically for you."
"What did Leader Guan say?" Chu Heng breathed rapidly, with an excited look on his face.
"What Leader Guan means is that I will hold the mayor's position temporarily, but the specific arrangements will be made later. Leader Guan seems enigmatic and has not made it clear." Luo Fei shook his head and said, "But don't worry, I will definitely do it."
I will fight for this position for you, I think there is no one more suitable than you."
"Thank you, thank you Secretary Luo." Chu Heng looked like he was crying with gratitude, but he was disappointed in his heart. He felt that Guan Xinmin admired him. After all, Guan Xinmin had talked to him alone, but why was Guan Xinmin chosen as the mayor this time?
Why don't Xinmin reveal any secrets?
While Chu Heng was thinking about his thoughts, Luo Fei continued: "Old Chu, in theory, according to the ranking of the members of the city leadership team, Xu Honggang is more likely to take over this position than you, but don't be discouraged. I will fully support you in the city.
, I speak for you, and the relevant leaders above, so I think you have great hope of taking over. As for you, concentrate on your job and perform better, I believe the leaders above will also see it.
.”
"Well, thank you Secretary Luo for your support." Chu Heng said gratefully again.
"Our family doesn't talk about two families." Luo Fei chuckled, changed the subject, and said, "Old Chu, let's talk about Qiao Liang."
"Qiao Liang? What happened to him?" Chu Heng asked doubtfully.
"Lao Chu, over in the northwest, Secretary Teng of Xizhou City called me two days ago and said that this Qiao Liang is a thorn and a troublemaker. They hope that we in Jiangzhou will cooperate with them and take the initiative to kill Qiao Liang.
Recall, of course, they will also respond to their province, and then the leaders of their provincial organization department will also communicate with the leaders of Jiangdong Organization Department, requesting that Qiao Liang return from his temporary post early." Luo Fei said, smiling.
, "Have you seen the news on the Internet these two days?"
"I saw a little bit, but I didn't pay any specific attention to it. After all, the past two days happened to be at the point where the conference was held, and I didn't even bother to take it into consideration." Chu Heng nodded and said.
"Well, me too. If it hadn't been for the appointment meeting today, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to it." Luo Fei laughed, "Let's talk about Qiao Liang today. Once this kid is summoned with stains on his body, then he will
Don't even think about making progress, we can give him one more punishment when the time comes, or we can just beat him to the end."
Having said this, Luo Fei waved his hand.
Chu Heng looked at Luo Fei calmly, then frowned and said, "It's just...I heard that Secretary Liao seems to admire Qiao Liang very much. Will he allow such a thing to happen?"
"Old Chu, you don't know this. Secretary Liao is not the only one who has the final say in Northwest Province. But this time, there are people pushing for Qiao Liang's misfortune from top to bottom. Do you understand?"
Luo Fei blinked at Chu Heng.
"Oh, then I understand." Chu Heng suddenly understood.
"However, it would be best if we could add fuel to the fire here. Lao Chu, you and Qiao Liang are familiar with each other. Do you think he has any clues that he can use to hype up the situation? Let's give it to him too."
Luo Fei said.
When Chu Heng heard this, he frowned slightly: "Although Qiao Liang and I are very familiar with each other, this guy is very slippery. There is really no reason to find him at the moment."
"Then you go back and think about it carefully. It's best if you have it. If not, forget it. Anyway, the knife handed to us from the northwest is enough reason for us to propose to recall Qiao Liang on our own initiative." Luo Fei said.
Chu Heng nodded and thought quietly. He hadn't called Qiao Liang for a long time recently. He really had to call Qiao Liang tonight and pretend to care.
Time flew by in the evening, and Qiao Liang arrived at the restaurant he had made an appointment with Ding Xiaoyun as promised. Ding Xiaoyun arrived one step earlier than Qiao Liang and had already ordered the food in advance. As soon as Qiao Liang arrived, Ding Xiaoyun invited Qiao Liang to drink without saying anything.
Whatever Qiao Liang said, Ding Xiaoyun drank a glass of wine first.
Qiao Liang was startled and said quickly: "Secretary Ding, there is no need to drink so fast."
"I asked you to come here just to drink with me. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Ding Xiaoyun said.
Qiao Liang glanced at Ding Xiaoyun when he saw this. He saw that Ding Xiaoyun's eyes were a little red and swollen. He didn't know whether it was because he was crying or because he hadn't slept well. He thought that Ding Xiaoyun's family affairs must not be handled well. In addition, Ding Xiaoyun's eyes were red and swollen in the past two days.
I don’t know how much pressure I’m under, so no wonder I want to find someone to drink with to vent my depression and depression.
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang said: "Okay, then I will let go and drink with Secretary Ding tonight."
"That's pretty much it." Ding Xiaoyun smiled with satisfaction.
The two of them were eating and drinking, and the atmosphere was a bit dull. Ding Xiaoyun seemed unwilling to talk much and kept drinking. Qiao Liang looked uncomfortable and said some comforting words, but he didn't know what Ding Xiaoyun heard.
He didn't go in, but he kept drinking. Qiao Liang couldn't do anything to persuade him, so in the end he could only drink with him.
They didn't know how much they drank. There was white wine and red wine, and there were several empty bottles on the ground. By the end of the drink, Qiao Liang saw Ding Xiaoyun start talking and almost fell down, knowing that Ding Xiaoyun was drunk.
"Secretary Ding, you're done drinking today. Let's drink another day." Qiao Liang calmed down and said to Ding Xiaoyun.
"I'm not drunk yet, come on...come on, keep on drinking." Ding Xiaoyun stammered.
"Secretary Ding, let me take you back first." Qiao Liang stood up and said, "I really can't drink anymore."
Ding Xiaoyun waved his hand, as if he wanted to get the wine again. Qiao Liang hurriedly walked over and helped Ding Xiaoyun up while stopping him.
After paying the bill, Qiao Liang took a lot of effort to help Ding Xiaoyun into the taxi and asked: "Secretary Ding, where is your home? I will take you back."
"Home? Xihe Road Xiang... Xianghe Apartment... Room 1301, Building 2." Ding Xiaoyun said in a daze, patting a small backpack on his back unconsciously, "Key... key."
After hearing what Ding Xiaoyun said, Qiao Liang vaguely understood that Ding Xiaoyun should have said that the key was in the bag.
When he arrived at the address Ding Xiaoyun mentioned, Qiao Liang discovered that it was a single apartment. The room had a woman's unique fragrance, which was the same as Ding Xiaoyun's body smell. There were only women's supplies inside. It seemed that this was just a place where Ding Xiaoyun lived alone.
After finally helping Ding Xiaoyun to the bed, Qiao Liang let out a sigh of relief. He was finally done and sent Ding Xiaoyun home.
Qiao Liang was about to stand up when someone suddenly pulled his collar. Qiao Liang fell down again and saw Ding Xiaoyun looking straight at him with his eyes open.
"You...don't...leave..." Ding Xiaoyun murmured intermittently. (To be continued)
