The next day, Qiao Liang had breakfast, walked out of the apartment, and prepared to go to work in the compound.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the community, I saw Shao Bingyu walking over.
"Good morning, Director Qiao." Shao Bingyu took the initiative to say hello and addressed Qiao Liang's new position.
Qiao Liang nodded: "Good morning, Minister Shao."
In recent days, Qiao Liang has not met and chatted with Shao Bingyu.
Shao Bingyu continued: "Congratulations on your promotion to deputy director."
"Thank you." Qiao Liang said simply. In the past few days, almost everyone who met him would say this, and Qiao Liang was already used to it.
Seeing Qiao Liang's plain expression, Shao Bingyu blinked. It seemed that Qiao Liang's promotion did not make him feel much joy or excitement. It seemed that he had already quickly accepted and adapted to it.
The two then crossed the road to the compound. During peak hours, there were many cars on the road. When walking on the crosswalk, Qiao Liang subconsciously stretched out his arm to protect Shao Bingyu and put his arm around her shoulders.
Qiao Liang's movements were very natural, and Shao Bingyu didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he felt that Qiao Liang paid great attention to taking care of women, and subconsciously said: "Thank you."
Qiao Liang said nothing.
After crossing the road, the two of them walked into the courtyard. They met Chu Heng and Wen Yuan walking over. Chu Heng said something to Wen Yuan while walking, while Wen Yuan looked depressed and gloomy.
Qiao Liang stopped and watched Chu Heng and Wen Yuan walking over.
Shao Bingyu also stopped when he saw Chu Heng and Wen Yuan.
Qiao Liang and Shao Bingyu greeted Chu Heng first, and Chu Heng nodded to them with a smile.
Then Qiao Liang looked at Wen Yuan. This time he was transferred to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. Wen Yuan's previous energy level was completely gone and he looked like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Seeing Wen Yuan's bad behavior, Qiao Liang felt happy in his heart. He looked at Wen Yuan with respect and said politely: "President Wen, oh no, Director Wen, oh no, Chairman Wen, morning."
Qiao Liang changed his titles three times in a row, calling Wen Yuan's position from the newspaper office to the Cultural Bureau to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. Although Qiao Liang's expression was respectful and his tone was serious, Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu could clearly tell that Qiao Liang was leading
It was meant to mock Wen Yuan.
Chu Heng remained calm, while Shao Bingyu felt a little uncomfortable and confused at the same time. Wen Yuan was Qiao Liang's old boss when he was at the newspaper office. Why did Qiao Liang treat him like this at this time?
Wen Yuan looked a little embarrassed. In front of Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu, Qiao Liang greeted him like this. It was obviously intentional and he was obviously teasing himself.
Wen Yuan couldn't stand it. He felt ashamed and frustrated. He also felt resentful about Qiao Liang's promotion, but he had no choice but to do so.
Wen Yuan clearly felt that in front of his former subordinates, Qiao Liang was going up, while he was going down.
Thinking of the miserable way he had treated Qiao Liang after Li Youwei came in, and seeing how proud he was now while he was in such a miserable state, Wen Yuan felt quite uncomfortable. He couldn't help but lament this moment and the other moment, and couldn't help but secretly curse Qiao Liang as a villain.
proud.
But since Qiao Liang took the initiative to say hello, he still had to respond. Wen Yuan tried his best to look calm, looked at Qiao Liang and said calmly: "Morning."
Qiao Liang frowned: "Chairman Wen, I call you your new position, why don't you call me mine? Are you dissatisfied with my new position? Is it because, as my old leader, you think I am promoted slowly?"
Wen Yuan rolled his eyes and said nothing.
Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu obviously heard that Qiao Liang was deliberately trying to find trouble with Wen Yuan. Chu Heng continued to watch calmly, while Shao Bingyu felt a little nervous and continued to feel confused.
Qiao Liang saw Wen Yuan rolling his eyelids and saying nothing, and then said: "Chairman Wen, since I took on the new position, the first thing everyone did when they saw me was to congratulate me, why didn't you? Could it be that my promotion made me happy?"
Are you unhappy? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Qiao Liang's words touched Wen Yuan's mind, but he couldn't show it in front of Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu. Since Qiao Liang said it so directly, he still had to cover it up, so he bit the bullet and said: "Okay, then.
Congratulations, Director Qiao."
"Thank you, Chairman Wen." Qiao Liang nodded, and then frowned, "But why do I feel that the old leader is duplicitous? His congratulations were not very cheerful, as if he was forced by me?"
Wen Yuan was angry. Damn, Qiao Liang was pushing the envelope. He kept calling his old leader, but there was no sign of being disrespectful to him. He was clearly having trouble with himself, especially in front of Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu. It was too much.
It's too much, it really makes me look ugly.
Wen Yuan's chest rose and fell slightly, and he breathed heavily from his nostrils. He said coldly: "Director Qiao, don't bully others too much."
"Chairman Wen, what are you talking about? I went too far to bully others? You are my old leader, how dare I do this?" Qiao Liang looked confused, spread his hands, and then looked at Chu Heng and Shao Bingyu,
"Minister Chu, Minister Shao, to be fair, did I bully Chairman Wen? You said, as Chairman Wen's old subordinate for many years, with your understanding of my Qiao Liang's character and temper, could I or I would do this?
?”
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Wen Yuan felt aggrieved and resentful for a moment, and his chest heaved even more violently.
Shao Bingyu realized at this time that there was a conflict between Qiao Liang and Wen Yuan. In other words, Qiao Liang had a deep prejudice against Wen Yuan, otherwise he would not have used this to make Wen Yuan so embarrassed.
Shao Bingyu didn't know what to say for a moment and looked at Chu Heng.
Chu Heng knew that Qiao Liang was deliberately trying to make things difficult for Wen Yuan, and that Qiao Liang was venting his grievances against Wen Yuan. Ordinarily, with his own identity and Qiao Liang's performance just now, he should criticize Qiao Liang. At the very least, Qiao Liang
Liang should not be sarcastic towards the old leader and should not lack the most basic respect.
But Chu Heng then thought that with Qiao Liang's intelligence and character, he certainly knew that what he was doing was wrong, but since he knew it was wrong, he did it deliberately, and in front of himself. It seemed that he wanted to vent his hatred for Wen Yuan on the one hand.
On the other hand, the dissatisfaction is deliberately done for oneself to see and listen to, and seems to have a different meaning.
Chu Heng thought for a moment and decided to reconcile with Xini. He chuckled: "As for Director Qiao, based on what I know about Director Qiao's character and character, he respects Chairman Wen very much and treats Chairman Wen from the bottom of his heart."
I respect him as an old leader. As Chairman Wen, he was Director Qiao’s old leader when he was in the newspaper office. He has always cared about and loved Director Qiao. I am sincerely gratified and happy about Director Qiao’s progress.”
Hearing what Chu Heng said, Wen Yuan felt even more aggrieved. Chu Heng's words seemed to favor Qiao Liang. It also seemed that with Qiao Liang's promotion and his continued position as An Zhe's secretary, he was unwilling to offend Qiao Liang.
After hearing what Chu Heng said, Qiao Liang sneered in his heart. Wen Yuan was Chu Heng's man, and he teased Wen Yuan in front of him. Chu Heng said this, obviously he realized that he might have done it deliberately.
Yes, I did it deliberately for him to see how he would express his stance.
Qiao Liang continued: "Minister Chu is a big leader. I think what Minister Chu said is very reasonable and echoes the facts. Since Chairman Wen has always been caring and caring for me, since Chairman Wen sincerely congratulated me, and since Chairman Wen has a new
position, and this new position is very important, I would also like to congratulate Chairman Wen and wish him happiness in his new position.
I have no doubt that Chairman Wen, with his extraordinary ability and character, will be able to do greater things in the position of Vice Chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, will definitely make extraordinary achievements, and will definitely be able to contribute to the literature and art of Jiangzhou.
