"Secretary Liao, the thing is like this. The video of the beating was edited. The part of the video uploaded online cannot truly reflect the entire incident..." Qiao Liang sat upright and explained the whole story in detail.
came out.
It was not a complicated matter in the first place. Qiao Liang finished quickly and then started to mention the photos: "Secretary Liao, many of the photos on the Internet about me and Secretary Ding Xiaoyun are composite photos and fake. Only a small part of them are fake.
real."
"Oh?" Liao Gufeng raised his eyelids and looked at Qiao Liang, "Is it a lie?"
"Yes, it's fake." Qiao Liang affirmed, "At present, our county has asked the relevant technical departments to identify the authenticity. I believe the results will be available soon."
"Since there are still some parts that are true, then which ones are true? The photo of you and the female secretary hugging each other is not true, right?" Lu Qian on the side interjected, although her words were still a bit weird, but they were no longer there.
It was so explosive at the beginning.
"Any photos that show close contact are all synthetic fake photos. Only those without physical contact are real." Qiao Liang said, "I was just talking about work with Secretary Ding of our county. I don't know who it is."
They deliberately arranged for people to secretly take photos, and then synthesized some fake photos, mixed the real and fake photos, and deliberately poured dirty water on us to confuse the public..."
Having said that, Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel guilty when he thought about what happened to him and Ding Xiaoyun last night. This guilty conscience made him feel uneasy, and this uneasiness made him very conflicted. Damn, although those photos were synthesized,
Although the relationship between him and Ding Xiaoyun was innocent when those photos were exposed online, but now, he and Ding Xiaoyun did have that kind of relationship last night.
Under this uneasy and contradictory mentality, Qiao Liang's heart was ups and downs. He regretted that he could not control his desires and impulses last night, but he also felt that he could not resist in that scene. After all, it was
Ding Xiaoyun took the initiative. After all, he was a hot-blooded man, especially when he felt the shadow of Zhang Lin in Ding Xiaoyun from time to time.
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang couldn't help but sigh secretly. For some reason, she suddenly felt sad in her heart.
Then Qiao Liang thought that the matter between himself and Ding Xiaoyun must be kept highly confidential and no one could know about it, otherwise not only himself, but also Ding Xiaoyun would be completely dead.
In this way, even though I and Ding Xiaoyun are now in that kind of relationship, I still have to resolutely deny the fabricated facts of those composite photos before this relationship took place. This does not seem to be a contradiction, it seems to be a unity among contradictions.
Thinking like this, Qiao Liang seemed to feel a little at ease, but also felt that he was a little shameless and despicable. This shamelessness and despicability made him feel that he had never been a noble person, but was just an ordinary and mediocre person among all living beings in reality.
No one is perfect, and so am I. Qiao Liang comforted himself in this way, trying to find a certain balance in his mentality and psychology that seemed to be at ease and self-deception.
"Even if someone deliberately framed you, you can't blame others. You are a man talking about work with someone else's female leader in the park late at night. Who wouldn't misunderstand you?" Lu Qian said sourly. She had obviously chosen to believe Qiao Liang's words.
.
"There is a reason for this." Qiao Liang composed himself and continued to explain, "At that time, the meat products processing factory in Liangbei County that Jiangdong Commercial Group was helping us was having troubles one after another. Secretary Ding was out inspecting that time and learned that
After the incident, she rushed back to Liangbei overnight. As soon as she arrived in Liangbei, she called me and asked me to go out and talk about the meat processing factory. At that time, she just happened to pass by Beihe Park, so we
We talked for a while over there in the park..."
While saying this, Qiao Liang continued to feel guilty, uneasy, and conflicted, and there was an unspeakable feeling in her heart.
Lu Qian listened to Qiao Liang's thorough explanation, and combined with what she said before, she couldn't help but believe Qiao Liang's words, and immediately said angrily: "Who is so hateful, deliberately framed you like this, it is so bad!"
Lu Qian's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees, and she began to fight for Qiao Liang.
Lu Qian's performance made Qiao Liang want to laugh a little. This girl is a firecracker, and she is easy to catch. However, the other party is also a person who has a clear distinction between love and hate. This especially makes Lu Qian look particularly cute.
At this time, Liao Gufeng said calmly: "Then you are suspended now?"
"No, in order to calm public opinion as quickly as possible, the city suspended me first, and even our Secretary Ding was suspended." Qiao Liang said helplessly.
"What kind of leader is that in your city? He has no sense of responsibility at all. When something like this happens, he just wants to push the people below him out of the way, instead of investigating the situation first and protecting his comrades." Lu Qian said angrily,
Then he looked at Liao Gufeng and said, "Master Liao, you can't ignore this matter."
"You, Director Lu, are the only ones who are very lenient." Liao Gufeng pointed at his daughter with a smile.
"Master Liao, how can I be so lenient? I am worried for you. The cadres under your management are so irresponsible. Aren't you ashamed as a secretary?" Lu Qian said with a smile.
Liao Gufeng couldn't laugh or cry. This girl really didn't give him any face. She dared to talk to him like this in front of outsiders. As the boss of a province, only this precious girl dared to talk to him like this.
Liao Gufeng did not answer his daughter's words at this moment. He was not interested in those messy scandal photos. Instead, he was concerned about the assistance project that Qiao Liang mentioned just now and asked: "Xiao Qiao, you said Jiangdong Commercial is helping you?"
There have been incidents one after another in the meat processing plant projects in Beixian County, what is the situation?”
When Qiao Liang saw Liao Gufeng asking about this matter, he honestly reported to Liao Gufeng several accidents that occurred in the meat processing factory.
After hearing this, Liao Gufeng frowned slightly: "Have these people who set the fire been caught?"
"Not yet." Qiao Liang shook his head.
"This assistance project is a great thing that is beneficial to the people, and it is a hope for the poor people in Liangbei to get rid of poverty. There are still people who are so short-sighted and secretly sabotage it." Liao Gufeng looked angry.
"Master Liao, I would say that the law enforcement department in their county is too stupid. They let people come and set fires one after another, but they couldn't catch them." Lu Qian said with a smile.
When Qiao Liang heard Lu Qian's words, he secretly thought that Lu Qian was right. Qiao Liang just caught the other person's words and said, "I don't think it's because I can't catch him, but I don't want to catch him."
Qiao Liang's words made Liao Gufeng's heart move. He looked at Qiao Liang and said, "Xiao Qiao, there is something in your words."
"Secretary Liao, to tell you the truth, I have heard a little about these criminals who set fires." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Tell me and listen." Liao Gufeng said again.
Qiao Liang then told Liao Gufeng what he learned about the idea of the iron mine boss He Shang Ke and others to develop a meat processing plant project.
"You mean these people who set the fire were behind the scenes?" Liao Gufeng's face sank. Under his seemingly calm expression, he showed no anger or authority.
"Secretary Liao, I don't have conclusive evidence, so I dare not draw a conclusion, but I guess it has something to do with them. Now that the iron mine boss Liu Yuhu has been arrested, it seems to have stopped these days." Qiao Liang said.
Liao Gufeng had a sullen face and said nothing. He tapped the table lightly with his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Secretary Liao, the frog you mentioned before was boiled in warm water. To what extent is it boiled now? Is it half-cooked or almost cooked?" Qiao Liang blinked at Liao Gufeng.
"The heat hasn't reached it yet, so it's a little early for it to be cooked." Liao Gufeng said calmly.
Qiao Liang was stunned when he heard this, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. What did Liao Gufeng mean by this, could he still be able to jump around for a while?
"What are you two talking about? Why can't I understand?" Lu Qian blinked.
"If you don't understand, don't understand." Liao Gufeng chuckled.
At this time, Lu Qian's mother came out of the kitchen and said, "It's time to eat, Xiaoqian, come here and help me serve the food."
Lu Qian reluctantly stood up and waved her fist at Qiao Liang again. Qiao Liang was puzzled as to why this little aunt was unhappy with her.
A sumptuous meal was quickly placed on the table. Liao Gufeng greeted Qiao Liang and said, "Boy, come over for dinner and have a drink with me at noon today."
"Old Liao, don't you have to go to work in the afternoon?" Lu Qian's mother glanced at Liao Gufeng.
"It's okay." Liao Gufeng smiled and waved his hand.
Liao Gufeng took a bottle of aged Wuliangye and opened it. When he was about to pour wine for Qiao Liang, Qiao Liang stood up quickly: "Secretary Liao, let me do it."
"You come, you come." Liao Gufeng handed the wine to Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang poured a small cup for each of them and then sat down. Lu Qian's mother, who was sitting next to Liao Gufeng, kept looking at Qiao Liang. She didn't know what she was looking at, but she always had a smile on her face.
"Come on, let's eat." Liao Gufeng took the lead in picking up the chopsticks and waved his hand, as if he was pointing the way.
Several people used their chopsticks. Lu Qian's mother looked at Qiao Liang while eating: "Xiao Qiao, you are not young anymore. After divorce, haven't you ever thought about finding another one?"
"Ah?" Qiao Liang didn't expect Lu Qian's mother to suddenly mention this, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
At this time, Lu Qian came to Qiao Liang's rescue and said, "Mom, if you don't eat well, why are you worrying so much?"
Lu Qian's mother looked at her daughter with a smile. Suddenly the conversation changed and she looked at Qiao Liang and said, "Xiao Qiao, what do you think of my Xiaoqian?"
"Ah?" Qiao Liang was stunned again. He didn't expect that Lu Qian's mother would be so direct. He couldn't answer this question. He gave Lu Qian a strange look, thinking that the mother and daughter had ventilated beforehand.
Are you talking about this at our dinner party?
However, seeing Lu Qian's face turn red and looking surprised, Qiao Liang gave up this suspicion.
Qiao Liang planned to pretend to be mute and get through, but Lu Qian's mother didn't give him a chance and continued to ask: "Xiao Qiao, why don't you answer?"
Qiao Liang smiled bitterly, thinking that he couldn't escape this level. He raised his head and glanced at Liao Gufeng, and saw that Liao Gufeng was drinking by himself with a small glass of wine as if nothing had happened. Qiao Liang said
My balls hurt a little, I don’t know what to do
How to answer? Although he knew that Lu Qian's mother intended to match him and Lu Qian before, after all, she never raised it directly like this when several people were present at the same time. Now that something like this suddenly happened, Qiao Liang was really caught off guard.
.
Seeing that Qiao Liang remained silent, Lu Qian, who was also unprepared and a little shy, felt embarrassed for no reason and stepped on Qiao Liang's foot under the table, causing Qiao Liang to grin.
At this time, Qiao Liang had no choice but to say: "Auntie, I am focused on work right now and have no time to think about this matter."
"If this is the case, then you should quickly consider your personal marriage matters. Think about it, you are busy with work, do you need a good wife to help you take care of your life? Take care of your daily life? Take a step back.
, you are now also a member of the system, and when the organization promotes cadres, your personal marriage and family situation will be considered. If you have not married yet, it will inevitably give people the impression that you are not mature enough, which will affect your progress.
"Lv Qian's mother smiled.
Hearing what Lu Qian's mother said, Qiao Liang couldn't help but blink.
Seeing that Qiao Liang was listening attentively, Lu Qian's mother continued: "And my old Liao has also been working in the system for more than thirty years. He has crossed more bridges than you have walked. If you and
When my Lu Qian is together, he can give you pointers from time to time, which can save you a lot of detours, don't you think?"
Qiao Liang opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
At this time, Liao Gufeng opened his mouth and said: "Why are you talking about two juniors? Why are you talking about me?"
Lu Qian's mother smiled and said nothing.
Liao Gufeng then said to Qiao Liang: "Xiao Qiao, this is your personal matter. You have to think about it yourself. What your Aunt Lu said only represents her opinion. The key is for you to make your own decision."
Qiao Liang nodded slightly and glanced at Liao Gufeng gratefully. Liao Gufeng was very considerate and would not use his authority to pressure others. On the contrary, what Lu Qian's mother just said, Qiao Liang vaguely heard another meaning of the other party. Then
If he is with Lu Qian, with the help of their Liao family, he can find a shortcut in the system and make faster progress than others.
But is this kind of progress really what you want?
Qiao Liang was confused. While he felt tempted, for some reason, he felt a little repelled in his heart. He asked himself, if he said he had no feelings for Lu Qian, he would be deceiving himself. A beautiful girl like Lu Qian, who came from a good family, took the initiative to pursue him.
, I don’t know if it is the blessing he has cultivated in several lifetimes, Qiao Liang does not
He is a person who doesn't know how to praise, but if he is asked to marry Lu Qian now, Qiao Liang feels that he still lacks enough courage and confidence. What's more, can he let go of other women? After experiencing He Zhang
After Mei's marriage, would he still have enough courage to start a family again with someone else?
In this entanglement, contradiction and chaos, Qiao Liang suddenly became a little lost. He felt that in the world of emotions, he was like a prodigal and a bastard.
